PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES The principal activity of the Company during the financial year was uranium exploration. There were no significant changes in the nature of the Company’s principal activities during the financial year. 3. OPERATING RESULTS The loss of the Company after providing for income tax amounted to $486,220 (2009: loss of $240,255) 4. DIVIDENDS PAID OR RECOMMENDED The directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend and no amount has been paid or declared by way of a dividend to the date of this report. 5. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS Review of Operations 1.1 Projects McArthur River Project (EL25839) The Company received the final processed data for the airborne electromagnetic survey (VTEM) flown in conjunction with Geoscience Australia over the McArthur River Project. The VTEM survey consisted of east west flight lines on 250m spacing for a total of 981 flight line kilometres. Processing and initial interpretation of the final data by the Company’s consultant geophysicist, Mapitt Geosolutions identified four target areas; T1 to T4. T1 and T4 represent deep conductors that may represent massive sulphide targets beneath flat lying sandstone sequences. T2 and T3 are broad shallow conductive zones that possibly represent uranium targets. The top of the T1 conductor has been interpreted from the airborne EM survey data to be about 90m below ground within the basement rocks. Field based exploration completed over the T1 to T3 targets consisted of soil sampling (T1 only), prospecting, scintillometer and XRF surveys for a total of 154 scintillometer and XRF points, 22 soil samples and 2 rock chip samples. The flat lying fine grained sandstone beds overlying the T1 coincident deep airborne EM conductor and magnetic anomaly appear to have masked any potential geochemical anomalism associated with the target zone, with no visible signs of mineralisation or alteration observed. Wide spaced scintillometer and XRF traverses were completed across the T2 and T3 broad conductive zones, with results indicating that potential for significant near surface uranium and / or base metal mineralisation is limited. A program of ground EM commenced during the June quarter to follow up on the T1 and T4 targets defined from the previously completed airborne EM survey, however, due to problems with the ground conditions the ground EM was unable to be completed. As a result of not being able to complete the ground EM, the Company commissioned a Gradient Array IP survey over the T1 target, which commenced in July 2010. Target zones defined from the Gradient Array IP will be followed up with a Dipole – Dipole IP traverse to assist in defining target depth and thickness. Planning of potential follow up drilling of the T1 target is contingent on the results of the IP surveys, with scope to conduct initial drill testing before the end of the 2010 field season. A successful outcome from the work program on the T1 target is likely to result in the completion of further ground based geophysics over T4 and other second order airborne EM targets within the project area, with scope that this work could be completed later in the year. 6 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited DIRECTORS' REPORT (Continued) 5. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued) Figure 1: McArthur River VTEM Airborne Electromagnetic Survey Pine Creek Project (EL24815) The Company received the preliminary processed data for the airborne electromagnetic survey (TEMPEST) flown in conjunction with Geoscience Australia over the Pine Creek Project (EL24815). The TEMPEST survey consisted of east west flight lines on 555m spacing for a total of 794 flight line kilometres. Processing and interpretation of the preliminary data by the Company’s consultant geophysicist has identified two target areas in the southern portion of the project: Stray Creek West and The Pines South. Both targets are adjacent to previously defined radiometric anomalies. Stray Creek West is adjacent to the Stray Creek radiometric anomaly and consists of a deep conductive zone coincident with an aeromagnetic anomaly interpreted to represent a palaeochannel. Previous exploration completed by the Company at Stray Creek has consisted of wide spaced ground spectrometer traverses and a soil sampling program, which have in part extended in to the Stray Creek West target area. The soil sampling has returned some weak to moderately anomalous uranium-in-soil results in the northern portion of the target area. A field program in late 2009 was designed to ground truth the interpreted palaeochannel in the Stray Creek West target area, with work undertaken consisting of an XRF survey on four east – west trending traverses across the target area, for a total of 364 XRF data points. 7 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited DIRECTORS' REPORT (Continued) 5. REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued) Field observations of the geology identified outcropping limestone in the majority of the target area and there was no field evidence to support the presence of the interpreted palaeochannel. The XRF survey identified a coincident Pb – Zn zone mid way along the second traverse, with values up to 251 ppm Pb and 546 ppm Zn. A number of sporadic anomalous uranium values, peaking at 26ppm, were also returned. The Company completed infill XRF traverses and soil samples on the Pb – Zn zone during the June quarter, completing a total of 124 XRF readings and soil samples, and collecting three rock chip samples. The soil samples and rock chip samples were assayed for a suite of elements consisting of Au, Ag, Pt, Pd, Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni, Co, As, Mn, Bi and Mo. The work has defined a coherent low order Pb – Zn anomaly, with maximum assays of 267ppb Pb and 218ppm Zn, located in an apparent demagnetised zone. A Gradient Array IP survey to cover the anomalous Pb – Zn zone has been commissioned and is planned to commence in July 2010. A positive outcome from the Gradient Array IP survey will result in the completion of follow up Dipole – Dipole IP. This work is intended to provide enhanced definition of the potential Pb – Zn mineralised zone to enable the planning of potential follow up drilling. A low level detailed aeromagnetic (radiometric) survey was completed in the southern portion of the Pine Creek project area during June 2010 with the data currently being interpreted. It is expected that this data will assist in the targeting of potential drilling to test the uranium prospectivity of the Stray Creek target area. 8 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited DIRECTORS' REPORT (Continued) 5.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS (Continued) DIRECTORS' REPORT (Continued) Dunmarra Basin (EL25838) and Wiso (EL25835) The field exploration programs completed at Dunmarra and Wiso were both designed to complete reconnaissance prospecting over regional radiometric anomalies defined from the reprocessing of the NTGS regional radiometric data. Work completed consisted of soil sampling, prospecting, scintillometer and XRF surveys for a total of 25 soil samples, XRF and scintillometer data points at Dunmarra and a total of 57 scintillometer points, 91 XRF points, 38 soil samples and 7 rock chip samples at Wiso. The results from both programs indicate that there is limited potential for the definition of significant near surface uranium, gold or base metal mineralisation. The Board is currently reviewing its options in regards to both tenements. 1.2 Corporate In October the Company raised $18,718 through a one for two non-renounceable option entitlements issue to its shareholders at 0.1 cents per option through the issuing of 18,717,895 new options to subscribe for fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, and are exercisable at 20 cents each on or before 30 June 2012. 6. SIGNFICANT CHANGES IN STATE OF AFFAIRS There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the Company during the financial year. 7. AFTER BALANCE DATE EVENTS Except for the below, the Directors are not aware of any other matters or circumstances that have arisen since the end of the financial year which significantly affected or may significantly affect the operations of the Company, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of the Company in future financial years. • On 9 August 2010, the Company relinquished its interest in ELA 25837; and • On 13 August 2010, as part of its application for a drilling permit on EL 25839, the Company provided the Department of Resources with a Bank Guarantee amounting to $6,569 as security. 8. MEETINGS OF DIRECTORS The number of directors' meetings held during the financial year each director held office and the number of meetings attended by each director was: Director Xing Yan George Lazarou Eric Kong Directors Meetings Number Eligible to Attend 2 2 2 Meetings Attended 2 2 2 The Company does not have a formally constituted audit committee as the board considers that the company’s size and type of operation do not warrant such a committee. 9. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS The Company will continue its mineral exploration activity at and around its exploration projects with the object of identifying commercial resources. 10 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited 10. ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES DIRECTORS' REPORT (Continued) The Company is aware of its environmental obligations with regards to its exploration activities and ensures that it complies with all regulations when carrying out any exploration work. The directors of the Company are not aware of any breach of environmental regulations for the year under review. The directors have considered the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (the NGER Act) which introduces a single national reporting framework for the reporting and dissemination of information about the greenhouse gas emissions, greenhouse gas projects, and energy use and production of corporations. At the current stage of development, the directors have determined that the NGER Act will have no effect on the company for the current nor subsequent financial year. The directors will reassess this position as and when the need arises. 11. REMUNERATION REPORT Remuneration Policy The remuneration policy of the Company has been designed to align director and executive objectives with shareholder and business objectives by providing a fixed remuneration component which is assessed on an annual basis in line with market rates and offering specific long-term incentives based on key performance areas affecting the Company’s financial results. The board believes the remuneration policy to be appropriate and effective in its ability to attract and retain the best directors and executives to run and manage the Company. The board’s policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration for board members and senior executives of the Company is as follows: The remuneration policy, setting the terms and conditions for the executive directors and other senior executives, was developed by the board. All executives receive a base salary (which is based on factors such as length of service and experience) and superannuation. The board reviews executive packages annually by reference to the Company’s performance, executive performance and comparable information from industry sectors and other listed companies in similar industries. The board may exercise discretion in relation to approving incentives, bonuses and options. The policy is to attract the highest calibre of executives and reward them for performance that results in long-term growth in shareholder wealth. Executives are also entitled to participate in the employee share and option arrangements. The executive directors receive a superannuation guarantee contribution required by government, which is currently 9%, and do not receive any other retirement benefits. the All remuneration paid to directors and executives is valued at the cost to the Company and expensed. Shares given to directors and executives are valued as the difference between the market price of those shares and the amount paid by the director or executive. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes method. The board policy is to remunerate non-executive directors at market rates for comparable companies for time, commitment and responsibilities. The board determines payments to the non-executive directors and reviews their remuneration annually, based on market practice, duties and accountability. Independent external advice is sought when required. The maximum aggregate amount of fees that can be paid to non-executive directors is subject to approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting, (currently $250,000). Fees for non-executive directors are not linked to the performance of the Company. However, to align directors’ interests with shareholder interests, the directors are encouraged to hold shares in the company and are able to participate in the employee option plan. Performance based remuneration The Company has no performance based remuneration component built into director and executive remuneration packages. 11 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited 11. REMUNERATION REPORT (Continued) DIRECTORS' REPORT (Continued) Company performance, shareholder wealth and director’s and executive’s remuneration The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders and directors and executives. Currently, this is facilitated through the issue of options to the majority of directors and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests. The company believes the policy will be effective in increasing shareholder wealth.

STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards including Australian Accounting Interpretations, other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations Act 2001. The financial report covers the Company of United Uranium Limited and has been prepared in Australian dollars. United Uranium Limited is a listed public company, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Australian Accounting Standards set out accounting policies that the AASB has concluded would result in a financial report containing relevant and reliable information about transactions, events and conditions to which they apply. Compliance with Australian Accounting Standards ensures that the financial statements and notes also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards. The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted by the entity in the preparation of the financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, financial assets and financial liabilities for which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied. (a) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within short-term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet. For the purposes Statement of the Cash Flow, cash and cash equivalents consist of cashand cash equivalents as defined above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts. (b) Critical Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions The carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities are often determined based on estimates and assumptions of future events. The key estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of certain assets and liabilities within the next annual reporting period are: Share based payment transactions The Company measures the cost of equity-settled transactions with employees by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted. The fair value is determined by an internal valuation using Black-Scholes option pricing model. Exploration and evaluation costs Acquisition, exploration and evaluation expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are carried forward in respect of an area that has not at balance sheet date reached a stage which permits a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active and significant operations in, or relating to, the area of interest are continuing. Impairment The Company assesses impairment at the end of each reporting period by evaluating conditions and events specific to the Company that may be indicative of impairment triggers. Recoverable amounts of relevant assets are reassessed using value-in-use calculations which incorporate various key assumptions. 20 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (b) Critical Accounting Judgements, Estimates and Assumptions (Continued) Environmental Issues Balances disclosed in the financial statements and notes thereto are not adjusted for any pending or enacted environmental legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. At the current stage of the Company’s development and its current environmental impact the directors believe such treatment is reasonable and appropriate. Taxation Balances disclosed in the financial statements and the notes thereto, related to taxation, and are based on the best estimates of directors. These estimates take into account both the financial performance and position of the company as they pertain to current income taxation legislation, and the directors understanding thereof. No adjustment has been made for pending or future taxation legislation. The current income tax position represents that directors’ best estimate, pending an assessment by the Australian Taxation Office. (c) Earnings Per Share The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the net profit attributable to members for the reporting period, after excluding any costs of servicing equity, by the weighted average number of ordinary shares of the Company, adjusted for any bonus issue. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. (d) Exploration, Evaluation and Development Expenditure Exploration, evaluation and development expenditure incurred is accumulated in respect of each identifiable area of interest. These costs are carried forward only if they relate to an area of interest for which rights of tenure are current and in respect of which: (i) (ii) such costs are expected to be recouped through successful development and exploitation or from sale of the area; or exploration and evaluation activities in the area have not, at balance date, reached a stage which permit a reasonable assessment of the existence or otherwise of economically recoverable reserves, and active operations in, or relating to, the area are continuing. Accumulated costs in respect of areas of interest which are abandoned are written off in full against profit in the year in which the decision to abandon the area is made. A regular review is undertaken of each area of interest to determine the appropriateness of continuing to carry forward costs in relation to that area of interest. The recoverability of the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation assets is dependent on the successful development and commercial exploitation, or alternatively, sale of the respective areas of interest. 21 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (e) Goods and Services Tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the Australian Tax Office (“ATO”). In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the Statement of Financial Position are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO is included as a current asset or liability in the Statement of Financial Position. Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flow on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows. (f) Impairment of Assets At each reporting date the Company assesses whether there is any indication whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indication of impairment exists, the Company makes a formal estimate of recoverable amount. Where carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the greater of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. It is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset’s value in use cannot be estimated to be close to its fair value less costs to sell and it does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or Company assets, in which case, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. (g) Income Tax Deferred income tax is provided on all temporary differences at the balance sheet date between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences: • • except where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither that accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and in in respect of subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. temporary differences associated with investments taxable 22 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (g) Income Tax (Continued) Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry- forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised: • • except where the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and in respect of deductible temporary differences with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred tax assets are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilised. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Income taxes relating to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity are not in the income statement. (h) Issued Capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Any transaction costs arising on the issue of ordinary shares are recognised directly in equity as a reduction of the share proceeds received. (i) Revenue Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised: Interest Revenue is recognised as the interest accrues. (j) Trade and Other Payables Liabilities for trade creditors and other amounts are carried at cost which is the fair value of consideration to be paid in the future for goods and services received, whether or not billed to the Company. Payables to related parties are carried at the principal amount. Interest, when charged by the lender, is recognised as an expense on an accrual basis. 23 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (k) Trade and Other Receivables Trade receivables, which generally have 30-90 day terms, are recognised and carried at original invoice amount less an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An allowance for doubtful debts is made when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect the debts. Bad debts are written off when identified. Receivables from related parties are recognised and carried at the nominal amount due. Interest is taken up as income on an accrual basis. (l) Financial Instruments Recognition and initial measurement Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions to the instrument. For financial assets, this is equivalent to the date that the company commits itself to either the purchase or sale of the asset (ie trade date accounting is adopted). Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs, except where the instrument is classified ‘at fair value through profit or loss’, in which case transaction costs are expensed to profit or loss immediately. Classification and subsequent measurement Finance instruments are subsequently measured at either of fair value, amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, or cost. Fair value represents the amount for which an asset could be exchanged or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties. Where available, quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value. In other circumstances, valuation techniques are adopted. Amortised cost is calculated as: a. the amount at which the financial asset or financial liability is measured at initial recognition; less principal repayments; plus or minus the cumulative amortisation of the difference, if any, between the amount initially recognised and the maturity amount calculated using the effective interest method; and less any reduction for impairment. b. c. d. The effective interest method is used to allocate interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and is equivalent to the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts (including fees, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life (or when this cannot be reliably predicted, the contractual term) of the financial instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. Revisions to expected future net cash flows will necessitate an adjustment to the carrying value with a consequential recognition of an income or expense in profit or loss. The Company does not designate any interests in subsidiaries, associates or joint venture entities as being subject to the requirements of accounting standards specifically applicable to financial instruments. 24 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (l) Financial Instruments (continued) i. ii. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets are classified at ‘fair value through profit or loss’ when they are either held for trading for the purpose of short-term profit taking, derivatives not held for hedging purposes, or when they are designated as such to avoid an accounting mismatch or to enable performance evaluation where a group of financial assets is managed by key management personnel on a fair value basis in accordance with a documented investment strategy. Such assets are subsequently measured at fair value with changes in carrying value being included in profit or loss. risk management or Held-to-maturity investments Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets that have fixed maturities and fixed or determinable payments, and it is the Company’s intention to hold these investments to maturity. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Held-to-maturity investments are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. (All other investments are classified as current assets.) If during the period the Company sold or reclassified more than an insignificant amount of the held-to-maturity investments before maturity, the entire held-to- maturity investments category would be tainted and reclassified as available-for- sale. iii. Available-for-sale financial assets Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either not suitable to be classified into other categories of financial assets due to their nature, or they are designated as such by management. They comprise investments in the equity of other entities where there is neither a fixed maturity nor fixed or determinable payments. Available-for-sale financial assets are included in non-current assets, except for those which are expected to mature within 12 months after the end of the reporting period. (All other financial assets are classified as current assets.) iv. Financial liabilities Non-derivative financial liabilities (excluding financial guarantees) are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Fair value Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arm’s length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models. Impairment At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there is objective evidence that a financial instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. 25 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (l) Financial Instruments (continued) De-recognition Financial assets are de-recognised where the contractual rights to receipt of cash flows expires or the asset is transferred to another party whereby the entity no longer has any significant continuing involvement in the risks and benefits associated with the asset. Financial liabilities are de-recognised where the related obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying value of the financial liability extinguished or transferred to another party and the fair value of consideration paid, including the transfer of non-cash assets or liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment of Assets At each the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. The assessment will include the consideration of external and internal sources of information including dividends received from subsidiaries, associates or jointly controlled entities deemed to be out of pre-acquisition profits. If such an indication exists, an impairment test is carried out on the asset by comparing the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use, to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the statement of comprehensive income. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Impairment testing is performed annually for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. (m) Plant and Equipment Plant and equipment are measured on the cost basis. The carrying amount of plant and equipment is reviewed annually by directors to ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the asset’s employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their present values in determining recoverable amounts. Depreciation The depreciable amount of plant and equipment is depreciated on a diminishing value basis over the asset’s useful life to the Company commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. The depreciation rates used for each class of depreciable assets are: Class of Fixed Asset Plant and equipment Furniture and Fittings Software Depreciation Rate 33.00% 11.25% 33.00% The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount. These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold, amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings. (n) Comparatives When required by Accounting Standards, comparative figures have been adjusted to conform to changes in presentation for the current financial year. 26 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (o) Employee Benefits Provision is made for the company’s liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by employees to balance date. Employee benefits that are expected to be settled within 1 year have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liability is settled. Employee benefits payable later than 1 year have been measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made for those benefits. Those cashflows are discounted using market yields on national government bonds with terms to maturity that match the expected timing of cashflows. (p) Accounting Standards not Previously Applied The Company has adopted the following new and revised Australian Accounting Standard issued by the AASB which is mandatory to apply to the current interim period. Disclosures required by this Standard that are deemed material have been included in this financial report on the basis that they represent a significant change in information from that previously made available. AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements In September 2007 the Australian Accounting Standards Board revised AASB 101 and as a result, there have been changes to the presentation and disclosure of certain information within the financial statements. Below is an overview of the key changes and the impact on the Company’s financial statements. Disclosure impact Terminology changes — the revised version of AASB 101 contains a number of terminology changes, including the amendment of the names of the primary financial statements. Reporting changes in equity — the revised AASB 101 requires all changes in equity arising from transactions with owners, in their capacity as owners, to be presented separately from non-owner changes in equity. Owner changes in equity are to be presented in the statement of changes in equity, with non-owner changes in equity presented in the statement of comprehensive income. The previous version of AASB 101 required that owner changes in equity and other comprehensive income be presented in the statement of changes in equity. Statement of comprehensive income — the revised AASB 101 requires all income and expenses to be presented in either one statement, the statement of comprehensive income, or two statements, a separate income statement and a statement of comprehensive income. The previous version of AASB 101 required only the presentation of a single income statement. The Company’s financial statements now contain a statement of comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income— The revised version of AASB 101 introduces the concept of ‘other comprehensive income’ which comprises of income and expenses that are not recognised in profit or loss as required by other Australian Accounting Standards. Items of other comprehensive income are to be disclosed in the statement of comprehensive income. Entities are required to disclose the income tax relating to each component of other comprehensive income. The previous version of AASB 101 did not contain an equivalent concept. AASB 8: Operating Segments In February 2007 the Australian Accounting Standards Board issued AASB 8 which replaced AASB 114: Segment Reporting. As a result, some of the required operating segment disclosures have changed with the addition of a possible impact on the impairment testing of goodwill allocated to the cash generating units (CGUs) of the entity. Below is an overview of the key changes and the impact on the Company’s financial statements. 27 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (p) Accounting Standards not Previously Applied (continued) Measurement impact Identification and measurement of segments — AASB 8 requires the ‘management approach’ to the identification measurement and disclosure of operating segments. The ‘management approach’ requires that operating segments be identified on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker, for the purpose of allocating resources and assessing performance. This could also include the identification of operating segments which sell primarily or exclusively to other internal operating segments. Under AASB 114, segments were identified by business and geographical areas, and only segments deriving revenue from external sources were considered. The adoption of the ‘management approach’ to segment reporting has resulted in the identification of reportable segments largely consistent with the prior year. Under AASB 8, operating segments are determined based on management reports using the ‘management approach’, whereas under AASB 114 financial results of such segments were recognised and measured in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards. This has resulted in changes to the presentation of segment results, with inter-segment sales and expenses such as depreciation and impairment now being reported for each segment rather than in aggregate for total group operations, as this is how they are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker. Impairment testing of the segment’s goodwill AASB 136: Impairment of Assets, para 80 requires that goodwill acquired in a business combination shall be allocated to each of the acquirer’s CGUs, or group of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Each cash generating unit (CGU) which the goodwill is allocated to must represent the lowest level within the entity at which goodwill is monitored, however it cannot be larger than an operating segment. Therefore, due to the changes in the identification of segments, there is a risk that goodwill previously allocated to a CGU which was part of a larger segment could now be allocated across multiple segments if a segment had to be split as a result of changes to AASB 8. Management have considered the requirements of AASB 136 and determined the implementation of AASB 8 has not impacted the CGUs of each operating segment. Disclosure impact AASB 8 requires a number of additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures, not previously required under AASB 114, where such information is utilised by the chief operating decision maker. This information is now disclosed as part of the financial statements. (q) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods The AASB has issued new and amended accounting standards and interpretations that have mandatory application dates for future reporting periods. The Company has decided against early adoption of these standards. A discussion of those future requirements and their impact on the Company follows: • AASB 9: Financial Instruments and AASB 2009–11: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 [AASB 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 101, 102, 108, 112, 118, 121, 127, 128, 131, 132, 136, 139, 1023 & 1038 and Interpretations 10 & 12] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2013). 28 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (q) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods (Continued) These standards are applicable the classification and measurement of financial assets. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact on the financial statements. retrospectively and amend The changes made to accounting requirements include: — — — — — — simplifying the classifications of financial assets into those carried at amortised cost and those carried at fair value; simplifying the requirements for embedded derivatives; removing the tainting rules associated with held-to-maturity assets; removing the requirements to separate and fair value embedded derivatives for financial assets carried at amortised cost; allowing an irrevocable election on initial recognition to present gains and losses on investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Dividends in respect of these investments that are a return on investment can be recognised in profit or loss and there is no impairment or recycling on disposal of the instrument; and reclassifying financial assets where there is a change in an entity’s business model as they are initially classified based on: a. the objective of the entity’s business model for managing the financial assets; and the characteristics of the contractual cash flows. b. • AASB 124: Related Party Disclosures (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011). This standard removes the requirement for government related entities to disclose details of all transactions with the government and other government related entities and clarifies the definition of a related party to remove inconsistencies and simplify the structure of the standard. No changes are expected to materially affect the Company. • AASB 2009–4: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 2 and AASB 138 and AASB Interpretations 9 & 16] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 July 2009) and AASB 2009-5: Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project [AASB 5, 8, 101, 107, 117, 118, 136 & 139] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing from 1 January 2010). These standards detail numerous non-urgent but necessary changes to accounting standards arising from the IASB’s annual improvements project. No changes are expected to materially affect the Company. • AASB 2009–8: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards — Company Cash- settled Share-based Payment Transactions [AASB 2] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2010). These amendments clarify the accounting for Company cash-settled share-based payment transactions in the separate or individual financial statements of the entity receiving the goods or services when the entity has no obligation to settle the share- based payment transaction. The amendments incorporate the requirements previously included in Interpretation 8 and Interpretation 11 and as a consequence, these two Interpretations are superseded by the amendments. These amendments are not expected to impact the Company. 29 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (q) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods (Continued) • AASB 2009–9: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards — Additional Exemptions for First-time Adopters [AASB 1] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2010). These amendments specify requirements for entities using the full cost method in place of the retrospective application of Australian Accounting Standards for oil and gas assets, and exempt entities with existing leasing contracts from reassessing the classification of those contracts in accordance with Interpretation 4 when the application of their previous accounting policies would have given the same outcome. These amendments are not expected to impact the Company. • AASB 2009–10: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards — Classification of Rights Issues [AASB 132] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 February 2010). These amendments clarify that rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of an entity’s own equity instruments for a fixed amount in any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro-rata to all existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. These amendments are not expected to impact the Company. • AASB 2009–12: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards [AASBs 5, 8, 108, 110, 112, 119, 133, 137, 139, 1023 & 1031 and Interpretations 2, 4, 16, 1039 & 1052] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011). This standard makes a number of editorial amendments to a range of Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations, including amendments to reflect changes made to the text of International Financial Reporting Standards by the IASB. The standard also amends AASB 8 to require entities to exercise judgment in assessing whether a government and entities known to be under the control of that government are considered a single customer for the purposes of certain operating segment disclosures. These amendments are not expected to impact the Company. • AASB 2009–13: Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from Interpretation 19 [AASB 1] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 July 2010). This standard makes amendments to AASB 1 arising from the issue of Interpretation 19. The amendments allow a first-time adopter to apply the transitional provisions in Interpretation 19. This standard is not expected to impact the Company. • AASB 2009–14: Amendments to Australian Interpretation — Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement [AASB Interpretation 14] (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2011). This standard amends Interpretation 14 to address unintended consequences that can arise from the previous accounting requirements when an entity prepays future contributions into a defined benefit pension plan. 30 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 1. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) (q) New Accounting Standards for Application in Future Periods (Continued) • AASB Interpretation 19: Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments (applicable for annual reporting periods commencing on or after 1 July 2010). This Interpretation deals with how a debtor would account for the extinguishment of a liability through the issue of equity instruments. The Interpretation states that the issue of equity should be treated as the consideration paid to extinguish the liability, and the equity instruments issued should be recognised at their fair value unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case they shall be measured at the fair value of the liability extinguished. The Interpretation deals with situations where either partial or full settlement of the liability has occurred. This Interpretation is not expected to impact the Company. The Company does not anticipate the early adoption of any of the above Australian Accounting Standards. The financial report was authorised for issue on 25th August 2010 by the board of directors. 31 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 2.

At shareholders meetings each ordinary share is entitled to one vote in proportion to the paid up amount of the share when a poll is called, otherwise each shareholder has one vote on a show of hands. (c) Capital risk management The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it may continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. Due to the nature of the Company’s activities, being mineral exploration, it does not have ready access to credit facilities, with the primary source of funding being equity raisings. Accordingly, the objective of the Company’s capital risk management is to balance the current working capital position against the requirements of the Company to meet exploration programmes and overheads. This is achieved by maintaining appropriate liquidity to meet anticipated operating requirements, with a view to initiating appropriate capital raisings as required. The working capital position of the Company at 30 June 2010 and 30 June 2009 are as follows: Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Financial assets at fair value through Profit and Loss Trade and other payables Working capital position 2010 $ 3,970,186 63,635 45,829 (84,570) 3,995,080 2009 $ 4,467,452 34,993 196,558 (96,562) 4,602,441 35 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 13.

RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES Key management personnel Disclosures relating to key management personnel are set out in note 15and the Directors’ Report. 17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (i) FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES The Company’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and short term deposits. The main purpose of the financial instruments is to earn the maximum amount of interest at a low risk to the Company. The Company also has other financial instruments such as trade debtors and creditors which arise directly from its operations. For the year under review, it has been the Company’s policy not to trade in financial instruments The directors’ overall risk management strategy seeks to assist the Company in meeting its financial targets, whilst minimising potential adverse effects on financial performance. Risk management policies are approved and reviewed by the Board of Directors on a regular basis. These include the credit risk policies and future cash flow requirements Financial Risk Exposures and Management The main risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are interest rate risk and credit risk. The board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below: (a) (b) Foreign Currency Risk The Company is not exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies. Interest Rate Risk The Company is exposed to movements in market interest rates on short term deposits. The policy is to monitor the interest rate yield curve out to 120 days to ensure a balance is maintained between the liquidity of cash assets and the interest rate return. The Company does not have short or long term debt, and therefore this risk is minimal. (c) Credit Risk Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company has adopted the policy of only dealing with credit worthy counterparties and obtaining sufficient collateral or other security where appropriate, as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Company does not have any significant credit risk exposure to any single counterparty or any Company of counterparties having similar characteristics. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any provisions for losses, represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk. (d) Liquidity Risk The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring forecast cash flows. The Company does not have any significant liquidity risk as the Company does not have any collateral debts. (e) Market Risk Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. 39 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) (ii) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT COMPOSITION AND MATURITY ANALYSIS The table below reflects the undiscounted contractual settlement terms for financial instruments of a fixed period of maturity, as well as management’s expectations of the settlement period for all other financial instruments.

Listed investments have been valued at the quoted market bid price at balance date, adjusted for transaction costs expected to be incurred. For unlisted investments where there is no organised financial market, the net fair value has been based on a reasonable estimation of the underlying net assets or discounted cash flows of the investment.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) (v) PRICE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS Management believes the estimated fair values resulting from the valuation of listed investments and recorded in the statement of financial position and the related changes in fair values recorded in the statement of comprehensive income are reasonable and the most appropriate at Statement of Financial Position date. At 30 June 2010, the effect on loss as a result of changes in the share price of listed investment, with all other variables remaining constant would be as follows: CHANGE IN PROFIT/(LOSS) Increase in fair value of investment by 10% Decrease in fair value of investment by 10% 2010 Financial assets: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: — — listed investments unlisted investments 2009 Financial assets: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: — — listed investments unlisted investments 2010 $ 2009 $ (470,790) (479,956) (220,799) (259,711) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 $ $ $ Total $ 45,829 - 45,829 - - - Level 1 $ Level 2 $ Level 3 $ 194,558 - 194,558 - 2,000 2,000 - - - - - - 45,829 - 45,829 Total $ 194,558 2,000 196,558 Included within Level 1 of the hierarchy are listed investments. The fair values of these financial assets have been based on the closing quoted bid prices at reporting date, excluding transaction costs. In valuing unlisted investments, included in Level 2 of the hierarchy, valuation techniques such as those using comparisons to similar investments for which market observable prices are available have been adopted to determine the fair values of these investments. Derivative instruments are included in Level 3 of the hierarchy with the fair values being determined using valuation techniques incorporating observable market data relevant to the hedged position. 18.

SEGMENT INFORMATION Identification of reportable segments The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors in assessing performance and determining the allocation of resources. The Company is managed primarily on the basis of its uranium exploration and corporate activities. Operating segments are therefore determined on the same basis. Reportable segments disclosed are based on aggregating operating segments where the segments are considered to have similar economic characteristics. Types of reportable segments (i) Uranium exploration Segment assets, including acquisition cost of exploration licences and all expenses related to the tenements in Northern Territory are reported on in this segment. (ii) Corporate Corporate, including treasury, corporate and regulatory expenses arising from operating an ASX listed entity. Segment assets, including cash and cash equivalents, and investments in financial assets are reported in this segment. 43 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 20. SEGMENT INFORMATION (Continued) Basis of accounting for purposes of reporting by operating segments Accounting policies adopted Unless stated otherwise, all amounts reported to the Board of Directors as the chief decision maker with respect to operating segments are determined in accordance with accounting policies that are consistent to those adopted in the annual financial statements of the Company. Segment assets Where an asset is used across multiple segments, the asset is allocated to the segment that receives the majority of economic value from the asset. In the majority of instances, segment assets are clearly identifiable on the basis of their nature and physical location. Unless indicated otherwise in the segment assets note, deferred tax assets and intangible assets have not been allocated to operating segments. Segment liabilities Liabilities are allocated to segments where there is direct nexus between the incurrence of the liability and the operations of the segment. Borrowings and tax liabilities are generally considered to relate to the Company as a whole and are not allocated. Segment liabilities include trade and other payables. Unallocated items The following items of revenue, expense, assets and liabilities are not allocated to operating segments as they are not considered part of the core operations of any segment: • • • • • • net gains on disposal of available-for-sale investments; impairment of assets and other non-recurring items of revenue or expense; income tax expense; deferred tax assets and liabilities; intangible assets; and discontinuing operations. Comparative information This is the first reporting period in which AASB 8: Operating Segments has been adopted. Comparative information has been stated to conform to the requirements of the Standard. 44 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010 20.

Directors Responsibility for the Financial Report The directors of United Uranium Limited are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards (including the Australian Accounting Interpretations) and the Corporations Act 2001. This responsibility includes establishing and maintaining internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies; and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the circumstances. In Note 1, the directors also state, in accordance with Accounting Standards AASB 101: Presentation of Financial Statements, that compliance with the Australian equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) ensures that the financial report, comprising the financial statements and notes, complies with IFRS. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial report based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. These Auditing Standards require that we comply with relevant ethical requirements relating to audit engagements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial report is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial report. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial report in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial report.

BENTLEYS Chartered Accountants CHRIS WATTS CA Director DATED at PERTH this 26th day of August 2010 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited CORPORATE GOVERNANCE The Company is committed to implementing the highest standards of corporate governance. In determining what those high standards should involve the Company has turned to the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations. The Company is pleased to advise that the Company’s practices are largely consistent with those ASX guidelines. As consistency with the guidelines has been a gradual process, where the Company did not have certain policies or committees recommended by the ASX Corporate Governance Council (the Council) in place during the reporting year, we have identified such policies or committees. Where the Company’s corporate governance practices do not correlate with the practices recommended by the Council, the Company is working towards compliance however it does not consider that all the practices are appropriate for the Company due to the size and scale of Company operations.A checklist summarising the Company’s compliance with the Recommendations is also set out at the end of this statement. Details of all of the recommendations can be found on the ASX Corporate Governance Council’s website at http://www.asx.com.au/supervision/governance/index.htm. PRINCIPLE 1: LAY SOLID FOUNDATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT AND OVERSIGHT Board Charter The Board is accountable to shareholders for the performance of the Company. The Board operates under the Board Charter that details its functions, responsibilities and powers and those delegated to management. On appointment, non-executive directors receive formal letters of appointment setting out the terms and conditions of appointment. The formal letter of appointment covers the matters referred to in the guidance and commentary for Recommendation 1.1. Executive directors are employed pursuant to employment agreements. To assist the Board carry out its functions, it has developed a Code of Conduct to guide the Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and other key executives in the performance of their roles. PRINCIPLE 2: STRUCTURE THE BOARD TO ADD VALUE Composition of the Board The Board consists of an executive chairman, an executive director, and one non-executive director. Details of their skills, experience and expertise and the period of office held by each director have been included in the Directors’ Report. The number of board meetings and the attendance of the directors are set out in the Directors’ Report. The roles of Chairman and the Managing Director are not exercised by the same individual. The role of Managing Director is carried out by Executive Director, Mr Lazarou. The Board Charter summarises the roles and responsibilities of the Chairman, Mr Yan and the Managing Director, Mr Lazarou. Independence of non-executive directors and the Chairman of the Board The Board has assessed the independence of the non-executive director and the Chairman using defined criteria of independence and materiality consistent with the guidance and commentary for Recommendation the 2.1. The Chairman, Mr Yan does not satisfy Recommendations. independence as detailed tests of the in Although Mr Kong holds 79,500 fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, the Board considers this immaterial. He is regarded as independent as Mr Kong is not a substantial shareholder as defined by the Corporations Act. The Company is at variance with Recommendations 2.1 and 2.2 in that the majority of directors are not independent and the Chairman is not independent. The Board has determined that the composition of the current Board represents the best mix of directors that have an appropriate range of qualifications and expertise, can understand and competently deal with current and emerging business issues and can effectively review and challenge the performance of the company. Furthermore, each individual member of the Board is satisfied that whilst the Company may not comply with Recommendations 2.1 and 2.2, all directors bring an independent judgment to bear on Board decisions. 51 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited Nomination and Remuneration Committee The Company does not have an existing Nomination and Remuneration Committee as recommended in Recommendation 2.4. As the whole Board only consists of three (3) members, it would not be a more efficient mechanism than the full Board for focusing the Company on specific issues. The responsibilities of a Nomination and Remuneration Committee would include devising criteria for Board membership, regularly reviewing the need for various skills and experience on the Board and identifying specific individuals for nomination as Directors for review by the Board. Currently the Board as a whole performs this role. Board renewal and succession planning The appointment of directors is governed by the Company’s Constitution and the Appointment and Selection of New Directors policy. In accordance with the Constitution of the Company, no director except a Managing Director shall hold office for a continuous period in excess of three years or past the third annual general meeting following the director's appointment, whichever is the longer, without submitting for re- election. The Company has not adopted a policy in relation to the retirement or tenure of directors. The appointment of the Company Secretary is a matter for the Board. Information on the skills, experience and qualifications of the Company Secretary can be found in the Directors’ Report. Evaluation of the performance of the Board, its committees and individual directors The performance of the Board and individual directors are evaluated in accordance with the Performance Evaluation Policies introduced via Board Charter on 1 March 2007. The objective of this evaluation will be to provide best practice corporate governance to the Company. Board Performance Evaluation Policy is available at the Company’s website. Induction and education When appointed to the Board, a new director will receive an induction appropriate to their experience. Directors may participate in continuing education to update and enhance their skills and knowledge from time to time, as considered appropriate. Access to information and advice Directors are entitled to request and receive such additional information as they consider necessary to support informed decision-making. The Board also has a policy under which individual directors and Board committees may obtain independent professional advice at the Company’s expense in relation to the execution of their duties, after consultation with the Chairman. PRINCIPLE 3: PROMOTE ETHICAL AND RESPONSIBLE DECISION MAKING Code of Conduct The Board has adopted a Code of Conduct which applies to all directors and officers of the Company. It sets out United Uranium’s commitment to successfully conducting the business in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations while demonstrating and promoting the highest ethical standards. The Code of Conduct reflects the matters set out in the commentary and guidance for Recommendation 3.1. Diversity Policy Due to its size and scale of operations, the Company does not have an existing diversity policy as recommended in Recommendation 3.2. The Company does not currently have permanent employees. Details of each of the Board members and Company Secretary are disclosed in the Directors’ Report. The Company Secretary, The Board has determined that the composition of the current Board represents the best mix of directors that have an appropriate range of qualifications and expertise, can understand and competently deal with current and emerging business issues and can effectively review and challenge the performance of the company. The Code of Conduct is available on United Uranium’s website. 52 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited PRINCIPLE 4: SAFEGUARD INTEGRITY IN FINANCIAL REPORTING Audit Committee Due to the size and scale of operations of the Company the full Board undertakes the role of the Audit Committee. Below is a summary of the role and responsibilities of an Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting and overseeing the independence of the external auditors. As the whole Board only consists of three (3) members, the Company does not have an audit committee because it would not be a more efficient mechanism than the full Board for focusing the Company on specific issues and an audit committee cannot be justified based on a cost-benefit analysis. However, in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules, the Company is moving towards establishing an audit committee consisting primarily of Independent Directors. In the absence of an audit committee, the Board sets aside time to deal with issues and responsibilities usually delegated to the audit committee to ensure the integrity of the financial statements of the Company and the independence of the external auditor. The Audit Committee or as at the date of this report the full Board of the Company reviews the audited annual and half-yearly financial statements and any reports which accompany published financial statements and recommends their approval to the members. The Audit Committee or as at the date of this report the full Board of the Company is also responsible for establishing policies on risk oversight and management. External auditor The Audit and Risk Committee or as at the date of this report the full Board of the company reviews the external auditor’s terms of engagement and audit plan, and assesses the independence of the external auditor. The current practice, subject to amendment in the event of legislative change, is for the rotation of the engagement partner to occur every five years. The Company’s independent external auditor is Bentley’s Audit and Corporate Advisory (WA) Pty Ltd (“Bentley’s”). The appointment of Bentley’s was ratified by members at the Annual General Meeting held on 26 November 2008. PRINCIPLE 5: MAKE TIMELY AND BALANCED DISCLOSURE The Continuous Disclosure Policy sets out the key obligations of the directors and employees in relation to continuous disclosure as well as the Company’s obligations under the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act. The Policy also provides procedures for internal notification and external disclosure, as well as procedures for promoting understanding of compliance with the disclosure requirements for monitoring compliance. The Board has designated the Company Secretary as the person responsible for overseeing and coordinating disclosure of information to the ASX as well as communicating with the ASX. The Policy reflects the matters set out in the commentary and guidance for Recommendation 5.1. The Continuous Disclosure Policy is available on United Uranium’s website. PRINCIPLE 6: RESPECT THE RIGHTS OF SHAREHOLDERS The Shareholder Communications Policy sets out the Company’s aims and practices in respect of communicating with both current and prospective shareholders. The Policy reinforces the Company’s commitment to promoting investor confidence by requiring: (a) compliance with the continuous disclosure obligations; (b) compliance with insider trading laws; (c) compliance with financial reporting obligations; (d) compliance with shareholder meeting requirements, including the provision of an opportunity for shareholders and other stakeholders to hear from and put questions to the Board, management and auditor of the Company; (e) communication with shareholders in a clear, regular, timely and transparent manner; and (f) response to shareholder queries in a prompt and courteous manner. The Policy reflects the matters set out in the commentary and guidance for Recommendation 6.1.. The Shareholder Communications Policy is available on United Uranium’s website. 53 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited PRINCIPLE 7: RECOGNISE AND MANAGE RISK Risk Management Policy United Uranium recognises that risk is inherent to any business activity and that managing risk effectively is critical to the immediate and future success of the Company. As a result, the Board has adopted a Risk Management Policy which sets out the Company’s system of risk oversight, management of material business risks and internal control. Risk oversight The Board’s Charter clearly establishes that it is responsible for ensuring there is a sound system for overseeing and managing risk. As the whole Board only consists of three (3) members, the Company does not have a Risk Management Committee because it would not be a more efficient mechanism than the full Board for focusing the Company on specific issues. At the date of this report the full Board of the Company is responsible for establishing policies on risk oversight and management. Reporting and assurance In the absence of an audit committee, the Board sets aside time to deal with issues and responsibilities usually delegated to the audit committee to ensure the integrity of the financial statements of the Company and the independence of the external auditor. As detailed in responsibilities of the Audit Committee the full Board of the Company reviews the audited annual and half-yearly financial statements and any reports which accompany published financial statements and recommends their approval to the members. The Audit Committee or as at the date of this report the full Board of the Company is also responsible for establishing policies on risk oversight and management. The Risk Management Policy is available on the United Uranium website. PRINCIPLE 8: REMUNERATE FAIRLY AND RESPONSIBLY Nomination and Remuneration Committee The Nomination and Remuneration Committee has delegated responsibilities in relation to the Company’s remuneration policies as set out in the Nomination and Remuneration Committee Charter. The Charter reflects the matters set out in the commentary and guidance for Recommendation 8.1. As the whole Board only consists of three (3) members, the Company does not have a Nomination and Remuneration Committee because it would not be a more efficient mechanism than the full Board for focusing the Company on specific issues. The responsibilities of a Nomination and Remuneration Committee are currently carried out by the board. Non-executive directors’ remuneration policy The structure of non-executive directors’ remuneration is clearly distinguished from that of executives. Remuneration for non-executive directors is fixed. Non-Executive Directors are to be paid their fees out of the maximum aggregate amount approved by shareholders for the remuneration of Non-Executive Directors. Non-Executive Directors do not receive performance based bonuses and do not participate in equity schemes of the Company. Non-Executive Directors are entitled to but not necessarily paid statutory superannuation. Executive directors’ remuneration policy As noted previously, executive directors are employed pursuant to employment agreements. Summaries of these employment agreements are set out in the Remuneration Report. Further details regarding the remuneration arrangements of the Company are set out in the Remuneration Report. The checklist below summarises the Company’s compliance with the Recommendations. 54 Annual Report 2010 United Uranium Limited Principles Recommendations Compliance Reference/ Explanation Yes/No Pr 1 Lay solid foundations for management and oversight Rec 1.1 Companies should establish the functions reserved to the board and those delegated to senior executives and disclose the functions.
