VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / April 27, 2026 / UraniumX Discovery Corp. (CSE:STMN) ("UraniumX" or the "Company") a uranium-focused discovery company with projects in the Athabasca Basin is pleased to announce that it has entered into a letter of intent (the "LOI") dated April 27, 2026 with Pond Technologies Holdings Inc. ("Pond") pursuant to which the parties intend to enter into an option agreement regarding the Company's Zoo Bay Uranium Project. The LOI will form the basis under which Pond will engage in a "change of business" and "RTO" in connection with the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") policies.

Pursuant to the LOI, UraniumX (through its wholly-owned subsidiary 1477571 B.C. Ltd.) has agreed to grant Pond the exclusive right and option to acquire a 100% interest in the Zoo Bay Uranium Project, located in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin, subject to the negotiation and execution of a definitive option agreement. Under the terms of the LOI, Pond may earn its interest by issuing an aggregate of 16,000,000 common shares of Pond, making aggregate cash payments of $350,000 over a three-year period, and incurring an aggregate of $4,500,000 in exploration expenditures on the project. The parties intend that the definitive agreement will set out the final terms and conditions upon which Pond may earn its interest in the project.

"We are pleased to announce this LOI with Pond regarding the Zoo Bay Uranium Project," said Kirby Renton, COO of UraniumX Discovery Corp. "This proposed transaction is a component of our project generation model, designed to advance and unlock value across our Athabasca Basin portfolio. We look forward to working toward a definitive agreement with Pond."

The Zoo Bay Uranium Project consists of 15 claims totaling approximately 19,850 hectares and is positioned near structural and magnetic features historically linked to uranium-thorium occurrences and conductivity corridors near Newnham Lake and neighbouring claims. UraniumX believes the proposed option arrangement provides a path to advance the project while maintaining focus on its broader exploration strategy in the Athabasca Basin.

The LOI contemplates the negotiation of a definitive option agreement incorporating the final commercial terms agreed between the parties, including the share issuance, cash payment and exploration expenditure obligations comprising Pond's proposed earn-in. UraniumX will provide further updates regarding the proposed transaction as material developments occur and in accordance with applicable securities laws. Completion of the transaction contemplated by the LOI remains subject to the negotiation and execution of a definitive option agreement, approval of the TSXV, approval at a meeting of Pond shareholders, and such other regulatory approvals as may be required, in addition to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. There can be no assurance that the parties will enter into the definitive option agreement or that the transaction contemplated by the LOI will be completed as currently proposed, or at all. The parties are arms-length and no finders fees are payable in connection with the proposed transaction.
