Criteria for Nomination to the Board

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors identifies director candidates based on input provided by a number of sources, including members of the Committee, other directors, our stockholders, members of management and third parties. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not distinguish between nominees recommended by our stockholders and those recommended by other parties. Any stockholder recommendation must be sent to the Secretary of Uranium Resources, Inc. at 6950 S. Potomac Street, Suite 300, Centennial, Colorado 80112, and must include detailed background information regarding the suggested candidate that demonstrates how the individual meets the Board membership criteria discussed below. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also has the authority to consult with or retain advisors or search firms to assist in the identification of qualified director candidates.

As part of the identification process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee takes into account each candidate's business and professional skills, experience serving in management or on the board of directors of companies similar to the Company, financial literacy, independence, personal integrity and judgment. In conducting this assessment, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will, in connection with its assessment and recommendation of candidates for director, consider diversity (including, but not limited to, gender, race, ethnicity, age, experience and skills) and such other factors as it deems appropriate given the then-current and anticipated future needs of the Board and the Company, and to maintain a balance of perspectives, qualifications, qualities and skills on the Board. The Board of Directors does not have a formal diversity policy for directors. However, the Board of Directors is committed to an inclusive membership. Although the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may seek candidates that have different qualities and experiences at different times in order to maximize the aggregate experience, qualities and strengths of the Board members, nominees for each election or appointment of directors will be evaluated using a substantially similar process. Incumbent directors who are being considered for re-nomination are re-evaluated both on their performance as directors and their continued ability to meet the required qualifications.

Under a Stockholders' Agreement between Resource Capital Fund V L.P. (“RCF”) and the Company dated March 1, 2012, as subsequently modified by a Bridge Loan Agreement between the Company and RCF dated December 17, 2012 and a Loan Agreement between the Company and RCF dated November 13, 2013, which was subsequently amended on April 29, 2014 and November 5, 2014, the Company and RCF have the following arrangements regarding the election of directors: (i) so long as RCF and its affiliates own or hold shares of URI common stock which in the aggregate exceed 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock, RCF will be entitled to have one designee placed in nomination for a seat on the Company's Board of Directors; (ii) so long as RCF and its affiliates own or hold shares of URI common stock which in the

6

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

In this section, we discuss our compensation philosophy and describe the compensation program for our senior executive team. We explain how our Board's Compensation Committee determines compensation for our senior executives and its rationale for specific 2014 decisions. We also discuss numerous changes the Committee has made to our program over the past several years to advance its fundamental objective: aligning our executive compensation with the long-term interests of our stockholders.

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the compensation of the following named executive officers ("NEOs"):

Name |  | Title
Christopher M. Jones |  | President, Chief Executive Officer and Director
Jeffrey L. Vigil |  | Vice President – Finance and Chief Financial Officer
Dain A. McCoig |  | Vice President – South Texas Operations

Executive Summary

Our executive compensation program is designed to reward exceptional organizational and individual performance and to align our management's interests with that of our stockholders. Performance of our executives is evaluated based on financial and non-financial goals that balance achievement of short-terms goals related to the continued improvement of the Company's business and long-term goals that seek to maximize stockholder value.

2014 Achievements

The Company achieved many of its goals during 2014 as a result of prolonged efforts by management, including:

•

further reduction of the Company's cash burn rate;

•

improved financial position with debt and equity financings;

•

completion of NI 43-101 compliant Technical Reports for the Company’s Roca Honda, Cebolleta and Juan Tafoya projects; and,

•

completion of restoration work at Kingsville Dome and Vasquez and commencement of reclamation work at Rosita.

2014 Compensation Plan Overview

Our compensation program provides total direct compensation to our NEOs that supports our philosophy of pay-for-performance and alignment of incentives between our management and stockholders. To that end, we have implemented the following policies and practices:

•

Significant "At-Risk" Compensation . A significant portion of NEO compensation and bonus opportunities are based on each NEO's individual performance and the performance of the Company. Two-thirds of the equity grants to our NEOs in 2014 were performance-based, with a significant risk of forfeiture.

•

Short-Term Incentive Compensation . The short-term incentive compensation component of our compensation program includes an annual incentive payment, payable in cash or stock, upon the achievement of specific planned performance goals. Such incentive payment serves as a vehicle for recruitment and retention and allows us to deliver competitive compensation tied to performance. In 2014, the Compensation Committee determined our NEOs earned from 70% to 75% of their target awards, again based on individual and Company-wide performance.

•

Long-Term Incentive Compensation . The long-term incentive compensation component of our compensation program includes restricted stock units ("RSUs") tied to both performance and continued service. The award of such RSUs further aligns our management's interests with our long-term performance and stockholder value.

•

Fixed Compensation . The fixed compensation elements of our compensation program include a base salary and retirement, health and welfare benefits.

•

Stock Ownership Guidelines . Our stock ownership guidelines require that the Company's CEO and CFO obtain shares of our common stock valued at three times their base salaries to ensure that management's interests are aligned with the long-term interests of our stockholders. These ownership requirements also serve as a retention tool through holding period requirements.

•

No Perquisites . We do not provide any perquisites, whether cash or otherwise, to our CEO, CFO or other NEOs.

•

Consideration of "Say-on-Pay" Vote . As in prior years, our stockholders continued to show strong support for our executive compensation program by approving such program with approximately 98% of votes cast in favor of the "say-on-pay" proposal at the 2014 Annual Meeting. The Compensation Committee views this continued support as a strong endorsement of our program.

Philosophy and Objectives of Our Compensation Plan

Our compensation program is centered around a philosophy that focuses on management retention, alignment of interests between management and the stockholders and pay-for-performance compensation. We believe this philosophy allows us to compensate our NEOs competitively, while simultaneously ensuring continued development and achievement of key business strategy goals. The Compensation Committee firmly believes that our pay-for-performance philosophy should recognize both short- and long-term performance and should include both cash and equity compensation arrangements that are supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the Compensation Committee.

Objectives

The Compensation Committee has outlined the following objectives for compensation of our NEOs and considers such objectives in making compensation decisions:

Objective |  | Description
Attraction and Retention |  | We provide competitive compensation to our NEOs and tie a significant portion of compensation to time-based and performance-based vesting requirements. Together, these actions help to ensure that we can continue to attract key management personnel and retain such personnel.
Pay for Performance |  | A significant portion of each NEO's compensation is "at-risk" or variable, based on predetermined performance criteria. Such criteria include both short- and long-term goals, as well as financial and non-financial goals. The Compensation Committee considers each of these criteria in making its compensation decisions each year.
Pay Mix |  | We use a variety of fixed-pay and incentive compensation forms, including cash, stock, options and RSUs.
Alignment of Incentives |  | We require our CEO and CFO to obtain a significant stock ownership stake in the Company and tie a meaningful portion of NEO compensation to awards that vest over multi-year periods.
Competitive Packages |  | We evaluate our compensation program in an effort to provide a competitive compensation package to each NEO that takes into account their responsibilities, performance and organization.

How Executive Compensation is Determined

Role of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors oversees the Company's executive compensation programs. Additionally, the Compensation Committee is charged with the review and approval of all annual compensation decisions relating to the NEOs and the Company's other officers.

The Compensation Committee is composed entirely of independent, non-management members of the Board of Directors. Each member of the Compensation Committee is both a "non-employee director" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act, and an "outside director" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. No Compensation Committee member participates in any of the Company's employee compensation programs. Each year the Company reviews any and all relationships that each director has with the Company, and the Board of Directors subsequently reviews these findings. The Board of Directors has determined that none of the Compensation Committee members has any material business relationships with the Company.

The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee, as stated in its charter, include the following:

•

review and make such recommendations to the Board of Directors as the Compensation Committee deems advisable with regard to all incentive-based compensation plans and equity-based plans;

•

review and approve the corporate goals and objectives that may be relevant to the compensation of the Company's NEOs;

•

evaluate the performance of the NEOs in light of the goals and objectives that were set and determine and approve the compensation of the NEOs based on such evaluation; and

•

review and approve the recommendations of the CEO with regard to the compensation of all officers of the Company other than the CEO.

Role of Management

The Compensation Committee considers input from the CEO when making executive compensation decisions for the other NEOs. The CEO's input is useful because the CEO reviews and observes the performance of the other NEOs at the Company. No other NEO is present or privileged to the recommendations of the CEO to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors determine the compensation of the CEO without any management input.

Financial Performance Goals

The Compensation Committee believes that a significant portion of each NEO's compensation should be tied to the Company's performance measured against stockholder value creation. By doing so, officers have the incentive of increasing stockholder value. The Company also measures financial performance awards against certain operational cost targets, budget targets and development and production objectives. Performance goals have changed from time to time and will continue to change as the conditions of the Company and the uranium market evolve.

Non-Financial Performance Goals

The Compensation Committee also believes that a significant portion of NEO compensation should be tied to achievement of the following non-financial performance goals and exhibition of the following core values:

Non-Financial Performance Goals:

•

continued viability of the Company as a going concern through the low price cycle for uranium concentrate and, as conditions permit, the development of a strong balance sheet;

•

development and implementation of a strategy for market competitiveness in acquiring additional properties for future development and operation;

•

retention of existing uranium properties and resources for development and operation at a time when an economic cycle for uranium selling prices returns;

10

•

growth goals associated with development of the Company's New Mexico resources, expanded financing sources, return to production in South Texas and strategic ventures; and

•

retention of valuable personnel for future development and operation of uranium properties in the United States.

Core Values:

•

safety;

•

community involvement;

•

environmental stewardship;

•

development of future leaders; and

•

adherence to a strict code of ethics.

Peer Group Analysis The Company has historically evaluated its compensation program against the programs at other companies in order to ensure its compensation program is competitive. Peer companies were selected based on (i) revenue scope within a reasonable range, (ii) asset size within a reasonable range of the Company's asset size, and (iii) mining companies with operational scope comparable to those of the Company – specifically, mining companies with operational activities versus pure "junior" developmental/exploration companies. To be reflective of the appropriate range of competitive pay practices, the group of companies used for this purpose was comprised of uranium mining companies in various stages of development and production, and in 2014 consisted of Azarga Uranium, Energy Fuels, UR Energy, Uranium Energy and Uranerz Energy Inc. The Company traditionally targeted all elements of its compensation programs to provide a competitive compensation opportunity at the median range of companies whose compensation is used in our peer group.

During 2013, the Compensation Committee utilized the services of an executive search firm which provided compensation data on current market salaries and incentive packages for executives in similarly sized mining companies in North America. The Committee negotiated salaries and long-term incentive opportunities directly with the Company's new CEO and CFO in light of their level of experience, the Company's compensation packages with its former CEO and CFO, and the need for the Company to conserve cash. For the Company's other NEOs, the Committee largely continued base salary levels from prior years in 2013 and 2014 and established performance incentives with target payments similar to the Company's legacy programs, although with a greater portion at risk based on the Company's performance and the performance of the individual NEOs.

In evaluating stock price performance in 2014, the Compensation Committee compared the Company's performance against the performance of the Global X Uranium ETF, which the Committee concluded represents a better measure of the status of the uranium industry than any potential peer group.

Use of Compensation Consultants

The Compensation Committee occasionally engages compensation consultants to assess executive pay packages and develop incentive plans. The Compensation Committee last utilized a consultant, Buck Consultants, LLC, in September 2010. The Company's current short-term incentive program and long-term incentive program have certain similarities with plans developed with the assistance of Buck Consultants in 2010 and 2011, but none of the Company's 2014 compensation decisions were the result of input from Buck Consultants or any other compensation consultant.

2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan

In June 2013, the Company adopted the Uranium Resources, Inc. 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2013 OIP"). Prior to its adoption, the Company had three other stock incentive plans for officers and certain other employees: the Amended and Restated 1995 Stock Incentive Plan (the "1995 Plan"), the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2004 Plan") and the 2007 Restricted Stock Plan (the "2007 Plan"). In addition, the Company had a stock incentive plan for directors: the 2004 Amended and Restated Directors' Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the "2004 Directors' Plan" and together with the 1995 Plan, 2004 Plan and 2007 Plan, the "Prior Plans"). The Company adopted the 2013 OIP to provide flexibility in structuring its executive compensation program and to ensure that it would have a sufficient number of shares of common stock available for equity-based awards that it expects to make to eligible individuals over the next several years. The 2013 OIP replaced the Prior Plans and no more awards were or will be granted under the Prior Plans following the adoption of the 2013 OIP. We reserved a total of one million shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to the 2013 OIP, plus shares that were reserved but unissued under the Prior Plans.

11

The 2013 OIP provides the Compensation Committee substantial flexibility in structuring awards that meet the objectives outlined above. In particular, the 2013 OIP permits the grant of performance-based and time-based RSUs, with many possible performance criteria available as the Compensation Committee determines to be appropriate. In addition to RSUs, the 2013 OIP provides for the grant of awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, dividend equivalent rights, performance shares and other performance-based awards, other equity-based awards and cash bonus awards. All of our officers, directors and employees, and the officers, directors and employees of our subsidiaries and affiliates, are eligible to receive awards under the 2013 OIP. In addition, consultants, advisors and certain other individuals whose participation in the 2013 OIP is determined to be in the best interests of the Company by the Compensation Committee may participate. Incentive share options, however, are only available to our employees.

The 2013 OIP is administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee also interprets the provisions of the 2013 OIP. The Compensation Committee also determines who will receive awards under the 2013 OIP, the types of award made, the terms and conditions of awards, and the number of shares of common stock subject to an award, if the award is equity-based.

Executive Compensation Elements

Overview and Compensation Mix

The following table illustrates the principal elements of the Company's executive compensation program, each of which is evaluated and update on an annual basis by the Compensation Committee:

Pay Element |  | Characteristics |  | Primary Objective
Base Salary |  | Annual fixed cash compensation |  | Attract and retain qualified and high performing executives
Short-Term Incentive Compensation |  | Annual stock compensation based on the achievement of predetermined performance goals |  | Incentivize our NEOs to achieve the short-term performance goals established by the Compensation Committee
Long-Term Incentive Compensation |  | Long-term equity awards granted as time-based and performance-based RSUs |  | Retain our NEOs and align their interests with the interests of our stockholders

In addition to the above-mentioned elements, the Company also provides a retirement, health and welfare benefit component to the executive compensation program.

The 2014 compensation mix for the Company's CEO and CFO demonstrates the Company's philosophy regarding significant long-term and performance-based compensation. As set forth in the 2014 Summary Compensation Table, approximately 43% of total compensation for the CEO and 33% of total compensation for the CFO in 2014 consisted of long-term equity awards, with approximately 39% of the CEO’s 2014 compensation and 54% of the CFO’s 2014 compensation consisting of base salary and the remainder consisting of compensation under the short-term incentive program. In addition, all short-term incentive compensation and a significant portion of long-term incentive compensation vests or is otherwise determined by the achievement of individual and Company-wide performance objectives.

The following is a summary of the components of the compensation policy for the Company's NEOs. As described in greater detail below, for 2014 annual and long-term incentive programs are effective for each current NEO – specifically, Messrs. Jones, Vigil and McCoig.

Fixed Compensation

Base Salary

The Compensation Committee establishes base salaries for our executives based on the scope of their responsibilities, and takes into account competitive market compensation paid by comparable mining industry companies. The Company believes that a competitive compensation program will enhance its ability to attract and retain senior executives. In each case, the Compensation Committee takes into account each officer's (i) current and prior compensation, (ii) scope of responsibilities, (iii) experience, (iv) comparable market salaries and (v) the Company's achievement of performance goals (both financial and non-financial). The Compensation Committee also (i) has the opportunity to meet with the officers at various times during the year, which allows the Compensation Committee to form its own assessment of each individual's performance and (ii) reviews reports of the CEO presented to the Compensation Committee, evaluating each of the other officers, including a review of their contributions and performance over the past year, strengths, weaknesses, development plans and succession potential.

12

For fiscal 2014, after taking into account the above-mentioned factors, historical base salaries, the performance of the NEOs and the challenging uranium pricing environment, the Compensation Committee maintained base salaries for our NEOs at the same levels as in fiscal 2013, as follows:

Name |  | Title |  | 2014 Base Salary
Christopher M. Jones |  | President and Chief Executive Officer |  | $275,000
Jeffrey L. Vigil |  | Vice President – Finance and Chief Financial Officer |  | $200,000
Dain A. McCoig |  | Vice President – South Texas Operations |  | $165,000

For more information about the 2014 base salaries for each of our NEOs, please see "2014 Summary Compensation Table" on page 15 of this Form 10-K/A.

Retirement, Health and Welfare Benefits

The Company offers a variety of health and welfare and retirement programs to all eligible employees. The NEOs generally are eligible for the same benefit programs on the same basis as the rest of the Company's employees. The Company's health and welfare programs include medical, dental and vision. In addition to the foregoing, the NEOs are eligible to participate in the following programs:

401(k) Profit Sharing Plan . The Company maintains a defined contribution profit sharing plan for employees (the "401(k)") that is administered by a committee of trustees appointed by the Company. All Company employees are eligible to participate upon the completion of six months of employment, subject to minimum age requirements. Each year the Company makes a contribution to the 401(k) without regard to current or accumulated net profits of the Company. These contributions are allocated to participants in amounts equal to 25% (or a higher percentage, determined at the Company's discretion) of the participants' contributions, up to 4% of each participant's gross pay. For the plan year ended July 31, 2014, the Company contributed amounts equal to 100% of the participant's contributions, up to 4% of gross pay. Participants become 20% vested in their Company contribution account for each year of service until full vesting occurs upon the completion of five years of service. Distributions are made upon retirement, death or disability in a lump sum or in installments.

Perquisites

We do not provide any perquisites, whether cash or otherwise, to our NEOs. We feel that our executive compensation program, particularly given the challenging uranium pricing environment, provides our NEOs with competitive compensation such that we do not need to provide any perquisites to achieve the goals of our executive compensation program.

Short-Term Incentive Compensation

In 2014, the Compensation Committee established a short-term incentive program pursuant to which each of the NEOs could earn a bonus based on the achievement of certain performance measures. For fiscal 2014, the performance measures and weighting of the measures for each NEO were as follows:

|  | Performance Objectives and Relative Importance |  |  |
|  | Safety / Environment |  | Corporate Objectives(1) |  | Financing |  | Budget |  | Operations Support |  | Target Bonus as a Percentage of Salary |  | Bonus Paid for Fiscal 2014 |
Christopher M. Jones |  | Medium |  | High |  | High |  | High |  | Medium |  | 60% |  | $124,000 |
Jeffrey L. Vigil |  | Low |  | High |  | High |  | High |  | High |  | 30% |  | $42,000 |
Dain A. McCoig |  | High |  | Medium |  | Low |  | High |  | High |  | 30% |  | $37,000 |
Level of Achievement |  | Partial |  | Partial |  | Partial |  | Full |  | Partial |  |  |  |  |

(1)

Consists of restoration at certain of the Company's South Texas properties, evaluating merger and acquisition opportunities and developing resource reports.

In March 2015, the Compensation Committee determined the results of the 2014 performance measures, as set forth in the table above, and the applicable award amounts. Awards were made in stock.

13

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

In 2014, the Compensation Committee also determined to set long-term performance criteria for each of the NEOs. The long-term compensation program puts a greater focus on performance and serves to create a balance between long-term and short-term performance imperatives. In the case of the NEOs, two-thirds of the restricted stock units granted on June 4, 2014, vest based upon the achievement of such performance criteria, with the other one-third in each case vesting based upon continued service to the Company.

The Compensation Committee expects the incentive program to evolve over time as the Company transitions from its current primary focus on developmental and restoration activities to an operational focus driving towards profit and return enhancement.

Stock Ownership Policy

The Compensation Committee believes that stock ownership by senior management and stock-based performance compensation arrangements are beneficial in aligning management and stockholders' interests and serves as an executive retention tool through vesting and post-vesting holding period requirements. To that end, the employment agreements for each of Mr. Jones and Mr. Vigil establish stock ownership targets for each executive of stock valued at three times the initial base salary of each executive under the employment agreements. Each of Mr. Jones and Mr. Vigil has five years from his respective employment date to reach the stock ownership target.

Target Total Direct Compensation for Fiscal 2014

The target compensation packages for our NEOs during fiscal 2015 will consist of base salary and, subject to Compensation Committee approval, a performance-based annual incentive plan pursuant to the short-term incentive program and time-based and performance-based awards under the long-term incentive program. Base salaries have been positioned to reflect job content and competitive pay practices, as discussed above.

"Say-on-Pay" Stockholder Vote

In 2014, as in prior years, we sought an advisory vote from our stockholders regarding our executive compensation program and received a 98% favorable vote supporting the program. The Compensation Committee considers the results of the advisory vote as it completes its annual review of each pay element and the compensation packages provided to our NEOs. Given the significant level of stockholder support and our stockholder outreach throughout the year, the Compensation Committee concluded that our compensation program continues to provide a competitive pay for performance package that effectively incentivizes our NEOs to maximize stockholder value. The Compensation Committee will continue to consider the outcome of our say-on-pay votes and our stockholder views when making future compensation decisions for our NEOs.

Severance and Change in Control Arrangements

We have entered into employment agreements with Messrs. Jones and Vigil that provide payments following the termination of employment under certain circumstances, including following a change in control of the Company. The Compensation Committee believes such agreements are useful in recruiting and retaining executives, provide continuity of management in the event of an actual or threatened change in control and provide the executives with the security to make decisions that are in the best long-term interest of the stockholders. The terms of these agreements are described later in "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control."

In addition, awards under the Company's equity incentive plans generally vest or accelerate upon a change in control of the Company. The Compensation Committee believes that the above-mentioned vesting and acceleration is appropriate on the basis that our NEOs should receive the full benefit of such awards in the event of a change in control.

Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m)

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally places a $1,000,000 limit on the deductibility for federal income tax purposes of the annual compensation paid to a company's CEO and each of its other three most highly compensated executive officers (excluding the CFO). However, "qualified performance-based compensation" is exempt from this deductibility limitation. Qualified performance- based compensation is compensation paid based solely upon the achievement of objective performance goals, the material terms of which are approved by the stockholders of the paying corporation.

14

The Compensation Committee considers the anticipated tax treatment to the Company when determining executive compensation and routinely seeks to structure its executive compensation program in a way that preserves the deductibility of compensation payments and benefits. It should be noted, however, that there are many factors which are considered by the Compensation Committee in determining executive compensation and, similarly, there are many factors that may affect the deductibility of executive compensation. In order to maintain the flexibility to be able to compensate NEOs in a manner designed to promote varying corporate goals, the Compensation Committee has not adopted a strict policy that all executive compensation must be deductible under Section 162(m).

Actions Taken After Fiscal 2014

The Compensation Committee has not taken any additional actions with respect to our executive compensation program after fiscal 2014, other than as described above.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the foregoing Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management. Based on this review and discussion, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Other than the foregoing employment agreements, we do not have any other employment agreements with our executive officers.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL

Employment Agreements

The Company has entered into employment agreements with each of Mr. Jones and Mr. Vigil. See "Employment Agreements" above. In the event of a change of control, if either executive is terminated without cause (as defined therein), demoted or has his responsibilities materially changed, or circumstances arise that constitute good reason (as defined therein), the Company will pay severance in an amount equal to two years of base salary in the case of Mr. Jones and one year of base salary in the case of Mr. Vigil, in each case in a lump sum within 30 days after his termination or termination of the agreement. If the Company otherwise terminates either executive, including following the disability of either executive, without cause, or fails to renew either employment agreement, or either executive otherwise terminates his employment for good reason, the Company will pay severance in an amount equal to one year of base salary in the case of Mr. Jones and six months of base salary in the case of Mr. Vigil, in each case in a lump sum within 30 days after the termination date. The employment agreements automatically terminate upon the death of the executive.

The employment agreements define "change of control" as (i) any person or group of affiliated or associated persons (other than RCF or RMB Australia Holdings, Ltd. or related entities) acquires more than 50% of the voting power of the Company; (ii) the consummation of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (iii) the dissolution of the Company; (iv) a majority of the members of the Board are replaced during any 12-month period; or (v) the consummation of any merger, consolidation, or reorganization involving the Company in which, immediately after giving effect to such merger, consolidation or reorganization, less than 50.1% of the total voting power of outstanding stock of the surviving or resulting entity is then "beneficially owned" (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) in the aggregate by the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger, consolidation or reorganization.

Equity Incentive Plans

Upon a change in control, the stock options granted under our 1995 and 2004 Plans, the restricted stock granted under our 2007 Plan and any awards under our 2013 OIP will immediately vest in full, to the extent not already vested, for all of our NEOs.

BOARD OVERSIGHT OF RISK MANAGEMENT

The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for risk oversight with a focus on the most significant risks facing the Company. The Board of Directors relies upon the President and Chief Executive Officer to supervise day-to-day risk management, who reports directly to the Board and certain Committees on such matters as appropriate.

The Board of Directors delegates certain oversight responsibilities to its Committees. For example, while the primary responsibility for financial and other reporting, internal controls, compliance with laws and regulations and ethics rests with the management of the Company, the Audit Committee provides risk oversight with respect to the Company's financial statements, the Company's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and corporate policies and controls, and the independent auditor's selection, retention, qualifications, objectivity and independence. Additionally, the Compensation Committee provides risk oversight with respect to the Company's compensation programs, and the Nominating and Governance Committee provides risk oversight with respect to the Company's governance structure and processes and

18

succession planning. The Board and each Committee consider reports and presentations from the members of management responsible for the matters considered to enable the Board and each Committee to understand and discuss risk identification and risk management.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company's general policy with respect to related party transactions is included in its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, the administration of which is overseen by the Audit Committee. Directors and officers of the Company are required to report any transaction that the Company would be required to disclose pursuant to Item 404(a) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K (a "Related Party Transaction") to the Audit Committee.

The Company collects information about potential Related Party Transactions in its annual questionnaire completed by directors and officers. Potential Related Party Transactions are subject to the review and approval of the non-interested members of the Audit Committee. In determining whether to approve any such transaction, the Audit Committee will consider such factors as it deems relevant, including, but not limited to, whether the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in arm's length negotiations with an unrelated third party.

On August 31, 2012, the Company acquired Neutron Energy, Inc. ("Neutron"). In anticipation of the acquisition, on March 1, 2012, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (the "Investment Agreement") with RCF, pursuant to which RCF purchased approximately 4.5 million shares of URI common stock for $35.0 million in transactions closing in March 2012, August 2012 and September 2012, the proceeds of which were used to repay Neutron debt and fund the working capital of the Company and Neutron. In connection with the execution of the Investment Agreement, on March 1, 2012, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with RCF, pursuant to which RCF is granted certain registration rights with respect to the shares of URI common stock issued under the Investment Agreement.

On December 17, 2012, the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement (the "Bridge Loan Agreement") among the Company, each of the Company's subsidiaries, as guarantors, and RCF, pursuant to which RCF provided a secured bridge loan to the Company in the amount of $5.0 million on December 18, 2012. The Company's obligations under the Bridge Loan Agreement carried an annualized interest rate of 10% and were secured by a first priority lien on all personal property of the Company and its subsidiaries. On December 18, 2012, the Company issued 42,883 shares of common stock to RCF in satisfaction of an establishment fee due under the terms of the Bridge Loan Agreement. On January 10, 2013 and March 5, 2013, the Company issued 4,861 shares and 26,482 shares, respectively, in satisfaction of interest due under the Bridge Loan

21

Agreement. On March 5, 2013, RCF purchased approximately 2.0 million shares in a rights offering pursuant to its obligations under a Standby Purchase Agreement, dated December 17, 2012, under which RCF agreed to exercise subscription rights for the purchase of $5.0 million of common stock in a private placement. The subscription price for the common stock purchased in the rights offering was satisfied by offset against amounts outstanding under the Bridge Loan Agreement, which was subsequently terminated.

On November 13, 2013, the Company and RCF entered into a Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") whereby RCF agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreement, to provide a secured convertible loan facility of up to $15.0 million to the Company (the "Facility"). Amounts drawn on the Facility carried an annualized interest rate of 12% until stockholder approval, and 10% thereafter. The Facility initially consisted of three tranches of $5.0 million each. RCF advanced $3.0 million of the first $5.0 million tranche shortly following the closing of the Loan Agreement, and on January 29, 2014, the stockholders approved the Loan Agreement and the issuance of shares thereunder. Following such approval, on February 4, 2014, the Company drew the remaining $2.0 million of the first tranche. On April 29, 2014, the Company, it subsidiaries and RCF entered into Amendment No. 1 to Loan Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”), which reduced the amount available under the second tranche of the Loan Agreement from $5.0 million to $3.0 million and terminated RCF’s commitment relating to the $5.0 million third tranche of the Loan Agreement. As a consequence, the aggregate amount available under the Loan Agreement decreased from $15.0 million to $8.0 million. Following execution of Amendment No. 1, the Company requested, and RCF advanced, the final $3.0 million available under the Loan Agreement. The Company and RCF entered into Amendment No. 2 to Loan Agreement on November 5, 2014 to reflect the exchange of certain properties pursuant to the Company’s November 2014 asset exchange with Rio Grande Resources, including RCF’s security interest in such properties. RCF may at any time convert amounts drawn under the Loan Agreement (including amounts previously repaid) into shares of URI common stock at an initial rate of $2.60 per share. The conversion rate is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. If RCF were to elect to convert the $8.0 million outstanding under the Loan Agreement, the Company would issue 3,076,923 shares of common stock to RCF. For a more complete description of the terms of the Loan Agreement, see the disclosure set forth under Item 3.02 to the Form 8-K filed by the Company on February 4, 2014,

RCF beneficially owned approximately 31.0% of the Company's outstanding common stock as of April 30, 2015. In addition, under a Stockholders' Agreement between RCF and the Company dated March 1, 2012, as subsequently modified by the Bridge Loan Agreement and the Loan Agreement, RCF has certain rights to designate nominees to the Board of Directors. See "Arrangements Regarding Election of Directors" on page 6 of this Form 10-K/A. The Company's agreements and transactions with RCF could therefore be considered Related Party Transactions. Each of the Investment Agreement, Stockholders' Agreement, Registration Rights Agreement, Bridge Loan Agreement, Standby Purchase Agreement and Loan Agreement were approved unanimously by the Board, including all members of the Audit Committee.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

The Board annually reviews all relationships that directors have with the Company to affirmatively determine whether the directors are "independent" under NASDAQ listing standards. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Cryan, Kaiser, Stevenson and Wheatley is "independent" and as a result, each member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is “independent.” In arriving at the foregoing independence determination, the Board of Directors considered transactions and relationships between each director or any member of his immediate family and the Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates. The Board has determined that the directors designated as "independent" have no relationship with the Company that would interfere with the exercise of their independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
