Contributions and company outcomes

Signed the amended scheme implementation deed in company-secretary capacity

March–August 2026 · documented · medium materiality

A 2026 SEC-filed amended and restated Scheme Implementation Deed has Eames’s signature for ASM as Company Secretary/Director. The schemes later received court approval and were implemented. The signature documents execution in her formal corporate capacity; it does not establish the extent of her legal advice or responsibility for the transaction’s broader outcome.

Attribution: Individual involvement documented. The filing directly records her execution of the deed in her Company Secretary/Director capacity; it does not allocate substantive legal advice or transaction causation.

Relevance: Relevant to legal/transaction execution, while the separate court disclosure observation concerns Smith’s early media answers and does not name Eames.

Energy Fuels Inc. Exhibit 10.1 – Amended and Restated Scheme Implementation Deed (signing page, lines 137-155); Federal Court of Australia approves Schemes (lines 1-16 and 36-71); Energy Fuels completes acquisition of ASM (lines 1-11)

Represented ASM at a project community meeting during KMP and funding discussions

July 2023 · documented · low materiality

The July 2023 Dubbo Project Community Consultative Committee report lists Eames as an attendee and records her updates about KMP sales/offtake, project funding and ESG. These are company statements recorded in meeting minutes, not proof she personally delivered those outcomes.

Attribution: Individual involvement documented. Minutes record her attendance and statements; operational results are company-level.

Relevance: Shows stakeholder and external-affairs work relevant to the current title.

Suitability for the current role

Legal, contracting and governance background aligns with project and corporate work

Before and during ASM tenure · analyst inference · medium materiality

ASM reports more than 15 years of legal, commercial, strategic and governance experience, including large-project contracting, corporate, finance and IP law, and says she was Managing Counsel with BHP before joining. This is issuer-reported.

Attribution: Responsibility not applicable. ASM describes her prior role; it does not quantify project outcomes attributable to her.

Relevance: Relevant to complex project contracting, funding, transaction and company-secretarial requirements.
