PRESS
RELEASE
DENISON RECEIVES $20.45 MILLION FROM UEX
TO SETTLE LOAN FROM JCU TRANSACTION
Toronto, ON – Sept 17,
2021. Denison Mines Corp. (“Denison” or the
“Company”) (TSX: DML, NYSE American: DNN) is pleased to
announce that UEX Corporation (“UEX”) has repaid the
interest-free 90-day term loan provided to UEX by Denison in
connection with UEX’s purchase of JCU (Canada) Exploration
Company, Limited (“JCU”) (the “Term Loan”,
see Denison news release from
August 3, 2021). On the transfer of 50% of the shares in JCU from
UEX to Denison, completed on August 3, 2021, $20.5 million of the
amount drawn under the Term Loan was deemed repaid by UEX. The
balance of the Term Loan, of $20.45 million, was repaid in cash by
UEX today.
David Cates, President and CEO of Denison,
commented, “Denison
congratulates UEX on their recent financing and repayment of the
Term Loan. We are looking forward to working with UEX on
Denison’s flagship Wheeler River project and the various
other projects that make up JCU’s unique and valuable
portfolio of strategic Canadian uranium
interests.”
In
connection with the repayment Denison has agreed to release its
security for the Term Loan, including the pledge of all of the
shares of JCU owned by UEX.
