Uranium Resources Board of Directors Elect Terence Cryan as the New Chairman

06.06.2014  |  Business Wire

Uranium Resources Inc. (NASDAQ: URRE) announced that its long-serving Chairman Paul K. Willmott has turned over his role to fellow Director Terence J. Cryan, following the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Willmott served the Company for the past 19 years either on the Board as Chairman or as Chief Executive Officer, and will remain on the Board.

Mr. Cryan said, “I look forward to transitioning the role of Chairman smoothly with Paul. I am keenly focused on leading the Board to create growth and value for our shareholders. The Board and I will continue to tap Paul’s wealth of knowledge and experience in uranium mining stretching back to the early 1970s with Union Carbide.”

Mr. Cryan added, “Having served as the Interim CEO for a period until April 2014 when President and CEO Chris Jones was appointed, I believe I have gained a deep understanding of the Company’s strengths and challenges. As Chairman, I will work closely with Chris and the rest of the Board to enhance the efficiency of our Company, lower our costs, and add value to our assets. While these are challenging times in a period of weak uranium prices, we believe the mid-to-long term demand and supply fundamentals are strong with new nuclear power generation under development. As importantly, we believe there are potential value-accretive opportunities for additions of quality reserves and potential asset acquisitions.”

The Company’s six directors were elected by shareholders to serve on the Board of Directors for another one year term. Shareholders also ratified the appointment of Hein & Associates LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, and approved on an advisory basis the compensation for the Company’s named executive officers.

Mr. Cryan has served as an independent director of URRE since October 2006. He has over 25 years of experience in investment banking in the United States and Europe. He is co-founder and Managing Director of Concert Energy Partners, an investment and private equity firm based in New York City. Prior to that, Mr. Cryan was a Senior Managing Director in investment banking for Bear Stearns and a Managing Director, Energy and Natural Resources Group Head and member of the Investment Banking Operating Committee at Paine Webber. He earned his Master of Science degree in economics from the London School of Economics and a bachelor’s degree in economics from Tufts University.
