Item 5.02 Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

On March 23, 2015, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Ur-Energy Inc. (the “Company”) approved and adopted certain amendments to the Restricted Share Unit Plan of the Company (the “RSU Plan”). The holders of common shares of the Company (the “Shareholders”) will be asked to confirm and ratify the amendments to the RSU Plan at the Company’s next annual meeting of Shareholders, currently scheduled for May 28, 2015. If the amendments are not confirmed by an ordinary resolution at the annual meeting of Shareholders, they will be of no force and effect, although the RSU Plan will remain in place in its earlier form, as previously approved by the Shareholders.

 

The amendments (a) extend the redemption period so that, going forward, all restricted share units (“RSUs”) in a grant are not redeemed until the second anniversary of the grant (in contrast to the current redemption of 50% on the first anniversary and 50% on the second anniversary); (b) provide for redemption, instead of cancellation, of outstanding RSUs at the date of redemption for retiring directors and executive officers, which retirement is defined as a threshold of combined service and age of 65 years, and a minimum of five years of service to the Company; and (c) update the RSU Plan for compliance with applicable laws. The full text of the RSU Plan, as amended, is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
