  ABOUT YELLOW CAKE

Yellow Cake is a London-listed company, headquartered in Jersey, which offers
exposure to the uranium spot price. This is achieved through its strategy of
buying and holding physical triuranium octoxide ("U(3)O(8)"). It may also seek
to add value through the acquisition of uranium royalties and streams or other
uranium related activities. Yellow Cake seeks to generate returns for
shareholders through the appreciation of the value of its holding of U(3)O(8)
and its other uranium related activities in a rising uranium price
environment. The business is differentiated from its peers by its ten-year
Framework Agreement for the supply of U(3)O(8) with Kazatomprom, the world's
largest uranium producer. Yellow Cake currently holds 15.83 million lb of
U(3)O(8), all of which is held in storage in Canada and France.

such as "expects", "anticipates", "should", "intends", "plans", "believes",

actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed in
such forward looking statements or expectations. Among the factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially are: uranium price volatility,
difficulty in sourcing opportunities to buy or sell U(3)O(8), foreign exchange

services agreement with 308 Services Limited, changes in the legal or
