The Uranium Purchase involves the acquisition of three tranches of 100,000 pounds U3O8, 76,300 pounds U3O8, and 53,700 pounds U3O8, for delivery in October 2019, January 2020, and June 2020, respectively, at an average price of USD$26.04. In October 2019, UPC took delivery of the first tranche of 100,000 pounds U3O8. In January 2020, the first Conversion Sale was completed, which resulted in an exchange of 100,000 KgU as UF6 for 261,285 pounds of U3O8. In January 2020, UPC also took delivery of the Uranium Purchase's second tranche of 76,300 pounds U3O8.

Following the completion of the various uranium transactions described above, UPC expects to hold a total of 16,263,372 pounds U3O8, and 400,000 KgU as UF6.
