Agreement and Plan of Merger

As previously disclosed on April 19, 2026, USA Rare Earth, Inc. (“USAR”)

entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated July 16, 2026 (“Amendment No. 1”),

and Amendment No. 2, dated September 3, 2026 (“Amendment No. 2”), and as may be further modified, amended or supplemented

from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) by and among (i) USAR, (ii) Middlebury Merger Sub Ltd., a business company

limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and an indirect, wholly owned Subsidiary of USAR (“Merger

Sub”), (iii) SVRE Holdings Ltd., a business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands

(“SVRE”), and (iv) Serra Verde Rare Earths Ltd., a company incorporated and existing under the laws of the British

Shares, without par value, of SVRE (collectively, “SVRE Shares” and such holders, the “SVRE Shareholders”)

(the “Seller Representative”), providing for the merger of SVRE with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving

the merger as an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of USAR (the “Merger” and, together with all other transactions

contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”) subject to the terms and conditions contained therein. Each

capitalized term used herein but not otherwise defined has the meaning given to it in the Merger Agreement.

On September 3, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), the parties

closed the Merger, and the Merger became effective at the time when the Articles of Merger were registered by the Registrar of Corporate

Affairs of the British Virgin Islands (the “Effective Time”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the aggregate merger

Act”), and Regulation S thereunder, and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. The USAR Shares were

offered and sold without any general solicitation by USAR, Merger Sub or their respective representatives. The USAR Shares have not been

registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration

or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Board Appointment Agreement, Vision Blue has the right to designate one member to the board

of directors of USAR (the “USAR Board”), for so long as Vision Blue and its affiliates beneficially own USAR Shares

that represent, in the aggregate, at least 5% of the then outstanding amount of shares of USAR common stock; provided that such director

In connection with the closing of the Merger, Merger Sub assumed on

the Closing Date all of the rights and obligations of SVRE under a Finance Agreement, dated as of January 21, 2026 (as amended, the “Finance

Agreement”), pursuant to which DFC agreed to provide a loan to SVRE in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $565,000,000,

consisting of (i) a first tranche (the “Initial Loan”) with a principal amount not to exceed $465,000,000 and (ii)

a second tranche (the “Incremental Loan”) with a principal amount not to exceed $100,000,000, and the other financing

documents to which SVRE was a party. The Initial Loan bears interest at a rate per annum equal to a forward-looking term rate based on

the secured overnight financing rate for the applicable interest period (“Term SOFR”), subject to a floor of 0.00%,

plus 4.0%. The Initial Loan has a term not to exceed fifteen (15) years from the initial disbursement date and is repayable in up to forty-nine

(49) quarterly sculpted installments. The obligations under the Finance Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on 100% of the

shares in Merger Sub and substantially all assets of Merger Sub and its subsidiaries.

The Incremental Loan was funded prior to the closing of the Merger.

In connection with the making of the Incremental Loan, DFC was issued warrants (the “DFC Warrants”) granting DFC the

right to purchase newly issued SVRE Shares. Immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, the DFC Warrants were cancelled and converted

on a cashless exercise basis into the right to receive Merger Consideration payable in respect of the DFC Warrants in accordance with

the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. Upon payment of the Merger Consideration in respect of the DFC Warrants and payment

of all outstanding unpaid fees and accrued but unpaid interest due to DFC in relation to the outstanding principal amount of the Incremental

Loan, the outstanding principal amount of the Incremental Loan and all such amounts were deemed repaid in full and all obligations of

Merger Sub in respect of the Incremental Loan were deemed irrevocably satisfied and discharged.

The foregoing summary of the Finance Agreement does not purport to

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain

Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers.

In connection with the closing

of the Merger and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the USAR Board appointed Thrasyvoulos Moraitis and Sir Michael Lawrence Davis to the

USAR Board, effective as of the closing of the Merger and in accordance with USAR’s governing documents. Mr. Davis is also the initial

appointee to the USAR Board under the Board Appointment Agreement as described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Mr. Moraitis has served as

CEO of the Serra Verde Group since January 2023. Prior to joining Serra Verde, Mr. Moraitis was the co-founder of X2 Resources and served

on the Executive Committee of Xstrata, led by CEO Mr. Davis, ultimately selling it to Glencore in 2013. At Xstrata he was responsible

for strategic development, post-acquisition integration, leadership development, external affairs and investor relations as well as Xstrata’s

technology business. While at Xstrata, he was involved in some 40 transactions. Mr. Moraitis began his career in the early 1980s as an

engineer on the South African gold mines of General Mining Union Corporation (Gencor), followed by a series of entrepreneurial activities

and, prior to joining Xstrata, was a global partner at the Monitor Group, a global advisory and merchant banking group. Mr. Moraitis was

previously the Chief Development Officer and a member of the Executive Board of EuroChem Group AG, a global fertilizer company and, prior

to this, an Executive Director at Brilliant Planet, a growth company developing a scalable method for producing microalgae for food solutions

and carbon sequestration.

Mr. Davis is the founder and

Managing Partner of Vision Blue which invests in metal and mineral resource companies that can meet the world’s evolving energy

needs. Mr. Davis is a highly successful mining executive accredited with building Xstrata plc into one of the largest mining companies

in the world prior to its acquisition by Glencore plc. Before listing Xstrata on the LSE as CEO he was CFO of Billiton plc and Chair of

Billiton Coal which he joined from the position of Eskom CFO. During his career in mining, he has raised over $40 billion from global

capital markets and successfully completed over $120 billion of corporate transactions, including the creation of the Ingwe Coal Corporation

in South Africa; the listing of Billiton on the LSE; the merger of BHP and Billiton; as well as numerous transactions at Xstrata culminating

in the sale to Glencore plc.

As a non-employee director,

Mr. Davis will be entitled to a cash retainer and an equity award in the form of RSUs under USAR’s director compensation program

consistent with the terms disclosed in USAR’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange

Commission on April 23, 2026.

As previously reported, in

connection with the closing of the Merger, Mr. Moraitis assumed the function and responsibility of President of USAR through October 1,

2026, at which point he will serve as Chief Executive Officer of USAR. On July 19, 2026, USAR and Mr. Moraitis agreed to the terms of

Mr. Moraitis’ compensation as Chief Executive Officer, which were disclosed in USAR’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with

the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 20, 2026. USAR and Mr. Moraitis executed a side letter on September 3, 2026 to memorialize

these terms, save that his initial base salary has been changed to CHF 905,000 per annum.

The foregoing summary

does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Mr. Moraitis’s employment letter agreement

dated May 8, 2023, as amended on February 2, 2026, a letter agreement dated April 19, 2026, and the side letter dated September 3,

2026, copies of which will be filed as exhibits to USAR’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30,

2026.

In connection with the appointments

of Mr. Moraitis and Mr. Davis, each has entered into a customary indemnification agreement with the Company. None of Mr. Moraitis or Mr.

Davis have a direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Exhibit 2.3

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO

AGREEMENT

AND PLAN OF MERGER

This Amendment No. 2 to Agreement

and Plan of Merger (this “Amendment”), dated as of September 3, 2026, is entered into by and among (i) USA Rare Earth,

Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), (ii) Middlebury Merger Sub Ltd., a business company limited by shares incorporated

under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and an indirect, wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), (iii)

SVRE Holdings Ltd., a business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands (the “Company”),

and (iv) Serra Verde Rare Earths Ltd., a company incorporated and existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, solely in its

capacity as the representative of the Company Shareholders (the “Seller Representative”).

WHEREAS, the parties hereto

are parties to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 19, 2026 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from

time to time, the “Merger Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to and in

accordance with Section 10.11 of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement may be amended or modified by a written instrument executed

by Merger Sub, Parent, the Company and the Seller Representative; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire

to amend the Merger Agreement as set forth in this Amendment to clarify and adjust certain transactions and other matters related to Closing.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration

of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto

agree as follows:

Section 1 Definitions. Capitalized terms

used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

Section 2 Amendment to the Merger Agreement.

A. Amendment to Section 1.2(a) of the Merger Agreement. Section 1.2(a) of the Merger Agreement is

hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(a)  Treatment

of DFC Warrants. Immediately prior to the Closing, each DFC Warrant shall be cancelled and converted on a cashless exercise basis

(i.e., net of any applicable exercise price for such DFC Warrants) into the right of such holder of such DFC Warrant to receive (A) the

portion of Aggregate Cash Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the Funds Flow, and (B) the

portion of Aggregate Stock Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in respect of such DFC Warrants in accordance

with the Funds Flow; provided that (x) in no event shall the portion of the Aggregate Cash Merger Consideration and the portion of the

Aggregate Stock Merger Consideration to be received by DFC in accordance with the Funds Flow be less than the portion of the Aggregate

Cash Merger Consideration and the portion of the Aggregate Stock Merger Consideration that would have been received by DFC had the DFC

Warrants been exercised and converted into Shares immediately prior to the Closing, and (y) the cancellation of the DFC Warrants shall

not adversely affect the non-economic rights that would have been received by DFC under this Agreement and the Warrant Documentation (as

such term is defined under the Retained Finance Agreement) had the DFC Warrants been exercised and converted into Shares immediately prior

to the Closing. The Parties intend for this conversion to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the exercise and conversion

of the DFC Warrants into Shares immediately prior to the Closing, followed by the cancellation of such Shares in exchange for a right

to receive Merger Consideration.

B. Amendment to Section 1.3(a) of the Merger Agreement. Section 1.3(a) of the Merger Agreement is

hereby amended by deleting the language indicated with bold strikethrough and adding the language indicated with

and, after giving effect to the Orion Payment, and the exercise cancellation

and conversion of the DFC Warrants contemplated by Section 1.2(a) and the exercise of the

Company Shareholder Warrants contemplated by Section 1.2(b), each holder of Shares shall be entitled to receive,

at the Closing, (A) a payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by the Company in the Closing

Payment Certificate, of the portion of the Aggregate Cash Merger Consideration such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the

Funds Flow, which amounts shall be calculated in accordance with the Charter, applicable Law and any Contracts or other agreements governing

or otherwise applicable to the preparation of the Funds Flow and (B) the portion of the Aggregate Stock Merger Consideration such holder

is entitled to receive in accordance with the Funds Flow, which amounts shall be calculated in accordance with the Charter, applicable

Law and any Contracts or other agreements governing or otherwise applicable to the preparation of the Funds Flow, in each case without

any deduction, offset or withholding except as expressly required pursuant to Section 1.7.

Option to receive (A) the portion of Aggregate Cash Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the

Funds Flow, and (B) the portion of Aggregate Stock Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive in respect of such Company

Options in accordance with the Funds Flow, in each case, subject to any applicable Tax withholdings and deductions in accordance with

Effective Time. The consideration payable pursuant to clause (B) above shall be issued no later than ten (10) Business Days following

the later of the date the holder delivers an executed Equity Award Acknowledgment to the Company and the Effective Time.

D. Amendment to Section 1.3(f) of the Merger Agreement. Section 1.3(f) of the Merger Agreement is

(f) Treatment of Company RSUs. At the Effective Time, each Company RSU, whether vested or unvested,

shall automatically, without any action by Parent, the Company or any holder of such Company RSU, become fully vested and then

cancelled and converted into the right of such holder of such Company RSU to receive (A) the portion of Aggregate Cash Merger Consideration

that such holder is entitled to receive in accordance with the Funds Flow, and (B) the portion of Aggregate Stock Merger Consideration

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

This REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

(this “Agreement”) is entered into as of September 3, 2026, by and among USA Rare Earth, Inc., a Delaware corporation

(“Company”), and the stockholders listed on Schedule A hereto (collectively, the “Holders”

and each individually, a “Holder”). Capitalized terms used but not defined elsewhere herein are defined in Exhibit

A.

WHEREAS, the Company is a

party to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 19, 2026 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time

to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Middlebury Merger Sub Ltd., a business company limited

by shares incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger

Sub”), SVRE Holdings Ltd., a business company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands (“SVRE”),

and the Seller Representative, pursuant to which, among other things, on the date hereof, Merger Sub merged with and into SVRE, with SVRE

continuing on as the surviving entity and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, on the terms and conditions set forth therein

(the “Transactions”);

WHEREAS, on or about the date

hereof, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Holders are receiving common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Transaction

Shares”); and

WHEREAS, in connection with

the consummation of the Transactions and as a condition to each of the parties’ obligations under the Merger Agreement, the parties

hereto desire to enter into this Agreement for the purpose of granting certain registration and other rights to the Holders on the terms

and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration

of the premises and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable

consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Article

I

Resale Registration

Section 1.1 Resale

Registration Statement. The Company shall file on the first (1st) Business Day after the date hereof (the “Filing

Deadline”) a Shelf Registration Statement covering the sale or distribution from time to time by the Holders, on a delayed

or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act of all of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3 (except if the

Company is not then eligible to register for resale the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, then such registration shall be on Form

S-1 or another appropriate form and shall provide for the registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders in

accordance with any reasonable method of distribution elected by the Qualified Holders) (the “Resale Registration

Statement” and, such registration, the “Resale Registration”), and the Company shall use its reasonable

best efforts to cause such Resale Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Commission as promptly as reasonably

practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than the earlier of (a) the date that is seventy five (75) days

after the filing of such Resale Registration Statement if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the

Resale Registration Statement and (b) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing,

whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to

further review (the earlier of such dates, the “Effectiveness Deadline”). Such Registration Statement shall not

include any shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of any other holder of securities of the Company without the

prior written consent of the Qualified Holders.

1

Section 1.2 Sufficient Number of Shares Registered. In the event the number of shares available under the Shelf Registration Statement

at any time is insufficient to cover all of the Registrable Securities, the Company shall, to the extent necessary and permissible, promptly

amend the Shelf Registration Statement or file a new registration statement (together with any prospectuses or prospectus supplements

thereunder, a “New Registration Statement”), so as to cover all of such Registrable Securities as soon as reasonably

practicable, but in any event not later than ten (10) Business Days after the necessity therefor arises (the “New Registration

Filing Deadline”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to have such amendment and/or New Registration Statement

become effective as soon as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof but no later than the earlier of (a) the seventy fifth

(75th) calendar day following the initial filing date of the New Registration Statement if the SEC notifies the Company that it will “review”

the New Registration Statement and (b) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever

is earlier) by the SEC that the New Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review

(the earlier of such dates, the “New Registration Effectiveness Deadline”).

Section 1.3 Effectiveness

Period. Once declared effective, the Company shall, subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, use its reasonable

best efforts to cause the Resale Registration Statement and any New Registration Statement to be continuously effective and usable until

such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities (the “Effectiveness Period”).

Section 1.4 Subsequent

Shelf Registration. If any Shelf Registration ceases to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time during

the Effectiveness Period, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to promptly cause such Shelf Registration to again

become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of

such Shelf Registration), and in any event shall within thirty (30) days of such cessation of effectiveness, amend such Shelf

Registration in a manner reasonably expected to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf

Registration or, file an additional registration statement (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”) for an offering to

be made on a delayed or continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act registering the resale from time to time by

Holders thereof of all securities that are Registrable Securities as of the time of such filing. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration

is filed, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to (a) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration to become effective

under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after such filing, but in no event later than the date that is

seventy five (75) days after such Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed and (b) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration (or

another Subsequent Shelf Registration) continuously effective until the end of the Effectiveness Period. Any such Subsequent Shelf

Registration shall be a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form, and

otherwise on Form S-1, and if the Company is a WKSI as of the filing date, such Registration Statement shall be an Automatic Shelf

Registration Statement. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form and shall provide for the

registration of such Registrable Securities for resale by such Holders in accordance with any reasonable method of distribution

elected by the Qualified Holders.

2

Section 1.5 Supplements and Amendments. The Company shall supplement and amend any Shelf Registration if required by the rules, regulations

or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company for such Shelf Registration if required by the Securities Act

or as reasonably requested by the Qualified Holders covered by such Shelf Registration.

Section 1.6 Subsequent

Holder Notice. If a Person becomes a Holder of Registrable Securities after a Shelf Registration becomes effective under the Securities

Act, the Company shall, as promptly as is reasonably practicable following delivery of written notice to the Company of such Person becoming

a Holder and requesting for its name to be included as a selling securityholder in the prospectus related to the Shelf Registration (a

“Subsequent Holder Notice”):

(a) if required and permitted by applicable law, file with the Commission a supplement to the related prospectus or a post-effective

amendment to the Shelf Registration so that such Holder is named as a selling securityholder in the Shelf Registration and the related

prospectus in such a manner as to permit such Holder to deliver a prospectus to purchasers of the Registrable Securities in accordance

with applicable law, provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to file more than one post-effective amendment

or a supplement to the related prospectus for such purpose in any forty-five (45) day period;

(b) if, pursuant to Section 1.6(a), the Company shall have filed a post-effective amendment to the Shelf Registration that is

not automatically effective, use its reasonable best efforts to cause such post-effective amendment to become effective under the Securities

Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable, but in any event by the date that is seventy five (75) days after the date such post-effective

amendment is required by Section 1.6(a) to be filed; and

(c) notify such Holder as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the effectiveness under the Securities Act of any post-effective

amendment filed pursuant to Section 1.6(a).

3

Section 1.7 Allowable

Delays. On no more than two occasions and for not more than thirty (30) consecutive days or for a total of not more than sixty

(60) days in any twelve (12) month period, the Company may suspend the use of any prospectus included in any Registration Statement,

in the event that the Company determines in good faith and upon advice of legal counsel that such suspension is necessary to (A)

delay the disclosure of material non-public information concerning the Company, the disclosure of which at the time is not, in the

good faith opinion of the Company, in the best interests of the Company or (B) amend or supplement the affected Registration

Statement or the related prospectus so that such Registration Statement or prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a

material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the

case of the prospectus in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (an “Allowed

Delay”); provided, that the Company shall promptly (a) notify each Holder in writing of the commencement of an Allowed

Delay, but shall not (without the prior written consent of a Holder) disclose to such Holder any material non-public information

giving rise to an Allowed Delay, (b) advise the Holders in writing to cease all sales under the Registration Statement until the end

of the Allowed Delay and (c) use commercially reasonable efforts to terminate an Allowed Delay as promptly as practicable. Each

Holder may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out Notice”) to the Company requesting that such Holder not receive

notices from the Company otherwise required by this Section 1.8; provided, however, that such Holder may later revoke any

such Opt-Out Notice in writing, which shall be effective five (5) Business Days after the receipt thereof. Following receipt of an

Opt-Out Notice from a Holder (unless subsequently revoked), the Company shall not deliver any notices pursuant to Section 3.1 to

such Holder and such Holder shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such notice.

Section 1.8 Rule 415; Cutback. If at any time the SEC takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities

in any Registration Statement is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the

Securities Act (provided, however, the Company shall be obligated to use reasonable best efforts to advocate with the SEC for the registration

of all of the Registrable Securities) or requires any Holder to be named as an “underwriter,” the Company shall (i) promptly

notify each holder of Registrable Securities thereof and (ii) make commercially reasonable efforts to persuade the SEC that the offering

contemplated by such Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer”

as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Holders is an “underwriter.” The Holders shall have the right to select one legal

counsel designated by the Holders, at such Holders’ expense, to review and oversee any registration or matters pursuant to this

Section 1.9, including participation in any meetings or discussions with the SEC regarding the SEC’s position and to comment on

any written submission made to the SEC with respect thereto. No such written submission with respect to this matter shall be made to

the SEC to which such Holders’ counsel reasonably objects. In the event that, despite the Company’s reasonable best efforts

and compliance with the terms of this Section 1.9, the SEC refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (i) remove from such Registration

Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the “Cut Back Shares”) and/or (ii) agree to such restrictions and limitations

on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the SEC may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the

requirements of Rule 415 (collectively, the “SEC Restrictions”); provided, however, that the Company shall not name

any Holder as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Holder (provided

that, in the event a Holder withholds such consent, the Company shall have no obligation hereunder to include any Registrable Securities

of such Holder in any Registration Statement covering the resale thereof until such time as the SEC no longer requires such Holder to

be named as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement or such Holder otherwise consents in writing to being so named).

Any cut-back imposed on the Holders pursuant to this Section 1.9 shall be allocated among the Holders on a pro rata basis and shall be

applied first to any of the Registrable Securities of such Holder as such Holder shall designate, unless the SEC Restrictions otherwise

require or provide or the Holders otherwise agree. The Company’s obligations under this Article I with respect to any Cut Back

Shares shall be suspended until such date as the Company is able to effect the registration of such Cut Back Shares in accordance with

any SEC Restrictions applicable to such Cut Back Shares (such date, the “Restriction Termination Date”); from and

after such Restriction Termination Date, all of the provisions of this Article I (including the Company’s obligations with respect

to the filing of a Registration Statement and its obligations to use reasonable efforts to have such Registration Statement declared

effective within the time periods set forth herein) shall again be applicable to such Cut Back Shares; provided, however, that the date

by which the Company is required to file the Registration Statement with respect to such Cut Back Shares shall be the tenth (10th) day

following the Restriction Termination Date and the date by which the Company is required to have the Registration Statement effective

with respect to such Cut Back Shares shall be the seventy fifth (75th) calendar day immediately after the Restriction Termination Date.

Section 1.9 Requests for Underwritten Shelf Registration Takedowns. At any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf Registration

is on file with the Commission, Qualified Holders holding a Demanding Percentage (in each such case, the “Demanding Holders”)

may request to sell all or any portion of their Registrable Securities in an Underwritten Offering that is registered pursuant to the

Shelf Registration (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided that the Company shall only be obligated to effect

an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Holder, either

individually or together with other Demanding Holders, with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $100

million (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”). All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written

notice to the Company, specifying the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown.

The Company shall give written notice of the proposed filing of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown to all of the Qualified Holders of Registrable

Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown,

which notice shall offer to all of the Qualified Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to include in such registered offering

such number of Registrable Securities as such Qualified Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written

notice (with each Qualified Holder requesting inclusion in such Shelf Takedown, a “Requesting Holder”). The Demanding Holders

shall have the right to select the lead managing Underwriter for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally

recognized investment banks), subject to the Company’s prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or

delayed). The Company shall have the right to select any co-managing Underwriters for such offering, subject to the Demanding Holders’

prior approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Subject to Section 1.12, the Qualified Holders

may demand not more than three (3) Underwritten Shelf Takedowns pursuant to this Section 1.9 in any twelve (12) month period (the

“Yearly Limit”); provided, however, that (i) any Underwritten Shelf Takedown that is not consummated for any reason

other than the voluntary withdrawal by the Demanding Holders (without cause attributable to the Company or its underwriters) shall not

count against the Yearly Limit, (ii) if the Holders are unable to sell at least 75% of the Registrable Securities requested to be included

in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown due to a cutback pursuant to Section 1.10, such Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall not count against

the Yearly Limit, and (iii) no individual Qualified Holder (or its Affiliates) may demand more than one Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant

to this Section 1.9 in any twelve (12) month period.

Section 1.10 Reduction in Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good

faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders, the Requesting Holders (if any) that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities

that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of Common Stock or

other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and all other shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that

have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights

held by any other stockholders, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten

Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success

of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”),

then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, before including any shares of Common Stock or other equity securities

proposed to be sold by Company or by other holders of shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, the Registrable Securities of

the Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each such Holder

has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

Section 1.11 Withdrawal.

Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” Prospectus or Prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten

Shelf Takedown, any Demanding Holder initiating an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten

Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a “Withdrawal Notice”) to the Company and

the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown provided that the Requesting

Holders may elect to have the Company continue an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if the Minimum Takedown Threshold would still be satisfied

by the Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the Requesting Holders. If withdrawn, a demand

for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall constitute a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the withdrawing Demanding Holder for

purposes of Section 1.10, unless (x) such Demanding Holder reimburses the Company for all Registration Expenses with respect to such

Underwritten Shelf Takedown (or, if there is more than one Demanding Holder, a pro rata portion of such Registration Expenses based on

the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown)

or (y) such withdrawal is the result of a suspension notice as contemplated by Section 3.1(m) or (n). Following the receipt of any Withdrawal

Notice, the Company shall promptly forward such Withdrawal Notice to any other Qualified Holders that had elected to participate in such

Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses

incurred in connection with a Shelf Takedown prior to its withdrawal under this Section 1.12, other than if a Demanding Holder elects

to pay such Registration Expenses.

5

Section 1.12 Block

Trade. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article I, at any time and from time to time when an effective Shelf Registration

Statement is on file with the Commission, if a Demanding Holder wishes to engage in an underwritten registered offering not involving

a “roadshow,” an offer commonly known as a “block trade” (a “Block Trade”), with a total offering

price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, either (x) $100 million or (y) all remaining Registrable Securities held by the

Demanding Holder, then such Demanding Holder only needs to notify the Company of the Block Trade at least five (5) business days prior

to the day such offering is to commence and the Company shall as expeditiously as possible use its commercially reasonable efforts to

facilitate such Block Trade; provided that the Demanding Holders representing a majority of the Registrable Securities wishing to engage

in the Block Trade shall use commercially reasonable efforts to work with the Company and any Underwriters prior to making such request

in order to facilitate preparation of the Registration Statement, Prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade.

The Company shall give written notice of the proposed Block Trade to all of the Qualified Holders as soon as practicable but not less

than four (4) days before the anticipated filing date of such Block Trade, which notice shall offer to all of the Qualified Holders the

opportunity to include in such Block Trade such number of Registrable Securities as such Qualified Holders may request in writing within

two (2) days after receipt of such written notice (with each Qualified Holder requesting inclusion in such Block Trade, a “Requesting

Holder” and with any reductions in such number of securities to be included in such Block Trade to be governed by Section 1.10).

Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” Prospectus or Prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade,

any Demanding Holder initiating such Block Trade shall have the right to submit a Withdrawal Notice to the Company and the Underwriter

or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Block Trade. The Demanding Holder in a Block Trade shall have the right

to select the Underwriters for such Block Trade (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks).

For the avoidance of doubt, any Block Trade effected pursuant to this Section 1.12 shall not be counted as a demand for an Underwritten

Shelf Takedown pursuant to Section 1.9 and shall not count toward the Yearly Limit.

Section 1.13 Aggregate Yearly Limit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) in no event may the number of Block

Trades demanded pursuant to Section 1.12 plus the number of Underwritten Shelf Takedowns demanded pursuant to Section 1.9 exceed

a total of three (3) demands in any twelve (12) month period and (ii) in no event may the number of Block Trades demanded pursuant to

Section 1.12 plus the number of Underwritten Shelf Takedowns demanded pursuant to Section 1.9 by any individual Qualified

Holder (or its Affiliates) exceed one (1) demand in any twelve (12) month period.

Article

II

Company Registration

Section 2.1 Notice

of Registration. If at any time or from time to time the Company shall determine to file a registration statement with respect to

an offering (or to make an underwritten public offering pursuant to a previously filed registration statement) of its Common Stock, whether

or not for its own account (other than a registration statement on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any successor forms, an Underwritten Shelf Takedown

or a Block Trade), the Company will:

(a) promptly give to the Holders written notice thereof, which notice shall be given, to the extent reasonably practicable, no less

than five (5) Business Days prior to the filing or launch date (except in the case of an offering that is an “overnight offering”,

in which case such notice must be given no later than one (1) Business Day prior to the filing or launch date); and

6

(b)

subject to Section 2.2, include in such registration or underwritten offering (and any related qualification under blue

sky laws or other compliance) all the Registrable Securities specified in a written request or requests made within ten (10) days after

receipt of such written notice from the Company by the Holders.

Each Holder may deliver written notice (an “Opt-Out

Notice”) to the Company requesting that such Holder not receive notices from the Company otherwise required by this Section 2.1;

provided, however, that such Holder may later revoke any such Opt-Out Notice in writing, which shall be effective five (5) Business Days

after the receipt thereof. Following receipt of an Opt-Out Notice from a Holder (unless subsequently revoked), the Company shall not deliver

any notices pursuant to Section 3.1 to such Holder and such Holder shall no longer be entitled to the rights associated with any such

notice.

Section 2.2 Underwriting. The right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Article II shall be conditioned upon such

Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided

herein. Each Holder proposing to distribute its securities through such underwriting shall (together with the Company and the other holders

distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into and perform such Holder’s obligations under an underwriting

agreement with the managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Company or by the stockholders of the Company who have the

right to select the underwriters (such underwriting agreement to be in the form negotiated by the Company or such stockholders, as the

case may be). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed

underwritten offering with respect to which Holders of Registrable Securities have exercised their piggyback registration rights advise

the Board of Directors of the Company that in its or their opinion the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in the

offering thereby and all other securities proposed to be sold in the offering exceeds the number which can be sold in such underwritten

offering in light of market conditions, the Registrable Securities and such other securities to be included in such underwritten offering

shall be allocated, (a) first, (i) in the event such offering was initiated by the Company, up to the total number of securities that

the Company has requested to be included in such registration, (ii) in the event such offering was initiated by the holders of securities

(other than the Holders) who have exercised their demand registration rights, up to the total number of securities that such holders of

such securities have requested to be included in such offering, and (iii) in the event such offering was initiated by the Holders who

have exercised their demand registration rights, up to the total number of securities that such Holders of such securities have requested

to be included in such offering, (b) second, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (a) have been included, up to

the total number of securities that the Holders and other holders of securities that have contractual rights to be included in such registration

have requested to be included in such offering (pro rata based upon the number of securities that each of them shall have requested to

be included in such offering) and (c) third, and only if all the securities referred to in clause (b) have been included, all other

securities proposed to be included in such offering that, in the opinion of the managing underwriter or underwriters can be sold without

having such adverse effect. If any Holder disapproves of the terms of any such underwriting, such Holder may elect to withdraw therefrom

by written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter or underwriters. Any securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting

shall be withdrawn from such registration.

7

Section 2.3 Right

to Terminate Registration. The Company or the holders of securities who have caused a registration statement to be filed as contemplated

by this Article II, as the case may be, shall have the right to have any registration initiated by it or them under this Article

II terminated or withdrawn prior to the effectiveness thereof, whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such

registration.

Article

III

and a “negative assurance letter,” dated as of such date, of the legal counsel representing the Company for purposes of such

registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters and (ii) furnish, on the date of the underwriting agreement

and on the date that the Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters, a letter dated as of such date, from the independent

certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants

to underwriters in an underwritten public offering, addressed to the underwriters; and

(j)

use reasonable best efforts to list the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement with any securities exchange

on which the Common Stock is then listed;

in connection with a customary due diligence review, make available for inspection by the Holders, any underwriter participating

in any such disposition of Registrable Securities, if any, and any counsel or accountants retained by the Holders or underwriter (collectively,

the “Offering Persons”), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company

and its subsidiaries, and cause the officers, directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to supply all information and

participate in customary due diligence sessions in each case reasonably requested by any such representative, underwriter, counsel or

effective, (ii) of any request by the Commission or other federal or state governmental authority for amendments or supplements to

such registration statement or related prospectus or to amend or to supplement such prospectus or for additional information, (iii)

of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement or the initiation of

any proceedings for such purpose, (iv) if at any time the Company has reason to believe that the representations and warranties of

the Company or any of its subsidiaries contained in any agreement (including any underwriting agreement contemplated by Section

3.1(g) above) cease to be true and correct or (v) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the

suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction,

or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and

(n) Each Holder agrees not to use the prospectus or registration statement during any Allowed Delay.

Section 3.2 Limitation on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date hereof, the Company shall not enter into any agreement

granting any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company registration rights with respect to such securities that conflict

with the rights granted to the Holders herein, without the prior written consent of the Holders. It is agreed that the granting of pro

rata registration rights to any other investor in the Company shall not be considered to conflict with the rights granted to the Holders

herein.

Section 3.3  Expenses

II shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders shall be borne

proposed by such Holder or Holders and their Affiliates as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be required in connection

with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of

the Company under Article I or Article II are conditioned on the timely provisions of the foregoing information by such

Holder or Holders and, without limitation of the foregoing, will be conditioned on compliance by such Holder or Holders with the following:

(a) such Holder or Holders will, and will cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate with the Company in connection with the preparation

Holder or Holders will and will cause their respective Affiliates to, provide to the Company, in writing and in a timely manner, for use

in such registration statement (and expressly identified in writing as such), all information regarding themselves and their respective

Affiliates and such other information as may be required by applicable law to enable the Company to prepare such registration statement

and the related prospectus covering the applicable Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders and to maintain the currency

and effectiveness thereof;

10

(b) during such time as such Holder or Holders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a distribution of the Registrable

Securities, such Holder or Holders will, and they will cause their Affiliates to, comply with all laws applicable to such distribution,

including Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act, and, to the extent required by such laws, will, and will cause their Affiliates

to, among other things: (i) not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with the securities of the Company in contravention

receipt of written notice from the Company of the happening of any of the events specified in Section 3.1(m) or Section 3.1(n),

or that requires the suspension by such Holder or Holders and their respective Affiliates of the distribution of any of the Registrable

Securities owned by such Holder or Holders, then such Holders shall, and they shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cease offering

or distributing the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or Holders until the offering and distribution of the Registrable Securities

owned by such Holder or Holders may recommence in accordance with the terms hereof and applicable law.

Section 3.5 Rule

144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of Rule 144 to the Holders, the Company agrees that, for so long as a

(b)

file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act; and

11

Section 3.6  “Market

Stand-Off” Agreement. In connection with any underwritten offering of equity securities of the Company, the Company shall

cause each executive officer or director of the Company to agree that it shall not Transfer any shares of Common Stock or other

equity securities of the Company (other than those included in such offering pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written

consent of the Company, during the ninety (90) day period (or such shorter time agreed to by the managing underwriters) beginning on

the date of pricing of such offering, except (i) to Permitted Transferees, (ii) as expressly permitted in writing by the Company or

Insider Trading Policy. So long as any designee or nominee of any Holder or its Affiliate sits on the Board of Directors

of the Company, such Holder shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, to comply with the Company’s insider trading policy, including

by not trading in the Company’s securities during any “black-out” or “closed window” imposed thereunder.

Section 3.8

Removal of Legends.

(a) The Company agrees that following the Unrestricted Date, it will, no later than five (5) trading days following the delivery by

a Holder to the Company or the transfer agent (with a copy to the Company) of certificates representing Registrable Securities with a

Securities Act restrictive legend, together with a written request for the removal of such Securities Act restrictive legend (or if the

Registrable Securities are uncertificated, just a written request for the removal of such Securities Act restrictive legend), use reasonable

best efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to such Holder one or more certificates representing such Registrable Securities that

are free from all Securities Act restrictive legends. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its counsel to issue

a legal opinion to the Company’s transfer agent promptly after the Unrestricted Date if required by the transfer agent to effect

the removal of the Securities Act restrictive legend.  No Holder shall be required to pay for or deliver any such legal opinion,

and shall only be required to deliver a standard representation letter in connection with a sale or proposed sale under Rule 144.

The Company shall be responsible for the fees of the applicable transfer agent, its legal counsel and all DTC fees associated with such

issuance, including the fees for causing its counsel to deliver a legal opinion, if any, to the transfer agent and Holder shall be responsible

for all other fees and expenses (including any applicable broker fees or transfer taxes). Certificates for Registrable Securities subject

to removal of the Securities Act restrictive legend shall, at the written request of the Holder, be transmitted by the transfer agent

to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s prime broker with the Depository Trust Company System as directed by such

Holder.

Indemnification

Section 4.1 Indemnification

by Company. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company will, with respect to any Registrable Securities as to which registration

or qualification or compliance under applicable “blue sky” laws has been effected pursuant to this Agreement, indemnify each

Holder, each Holder’s current and former officers, directors, partners and members, and each Person controlling such Holder within

the meaning of Section fifteen (15) of the Securities Act, and each underwriter thereof, if any, and each Person who controls any such

underwriter within the meaning of Section fifteen (15) of the Securities Act (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Parties”),

against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities, joint or several, (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based

on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary

prospectus, offering circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto incident to any such registration, qualification

or compliance or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary

to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by the Company

of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act or state securities laws applicable to the Company in connection

with any such registration, and the Company will reimburse each of the Company Indemnified Parties for any reasonable legal and any other

expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action,

as such expenses are incurred. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement

of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company (which

consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall the Company be liable to a Holder in any such case for any such loss,

claim, damage, liability or action (a) to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a violation or alleged violation of any state

or federal law (including any claim arising out of or based on any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged

omission in the registration statement or prospectus) which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished

expressly for use in connection with such registration by or on behalf of any Holder or (b) in the case of a sale directly by a Holder

of Registrable Securities (including a sale of such Registrable Securities through any underwriter retained by such Holder engaging in

a distribution solely on behalf of such Holder), such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was

corrected in a final or amended prospectus, and such Holder failed to deliver a copy of the final or amended prospectus at or prior to

the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to the Person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability in any case

in which such delivery is required by the Securities Act.

Section 4.2 Indemnification

by Holders. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Holder will, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are

included in the securities as to which such registration or qualification or compliance under applicable “blue sky” laws

is being effected, indemnify, severally and not jointly, the Company, each of its directors, officers, partners and members, each

underwriter, if any, of the Company’s securities covered by such a registration, each Person who controls the Company or such

underwriter within the meaning of Section fifteen (15) of the Securities Act, and each other Holder and each of such Holder’s

officers, directors, partners and members and each Person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section fifteen (15) of the

Securities Act (collectively, the “Holder Indemnified Parties”), against all expenses, claims, losses, damages

and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a

material fact contained in any registration statement, prospectus, preliminary prospectus, offering circular or other document, or

any amendment or supplement thereto incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance or based on any omission (or

alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in

light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, or any violation by such Holder of any rule or regulation

promulgated under the Securities Act, Exchange Act or state securities law applicable to such Holder, and will reimburse each of the

Holder Indemnified Parties for any reasonable legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating,

preparing or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, as such expenses are incurred, in each case to the extent,

but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such

registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information

furnished to the Company by such Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein, provided, however, that

in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 4.2 payable by a Holder exceed the amount by which the net proceeds

actually received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities included in such registration exceeds the amount of any

other losses, expenses, settlements, damages, claims and liabilities that such Holder has been required to pay by reason of such

untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission or violation. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section

4.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected

without the prior written consent of the applicable Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), nor shall

the Holder be liable for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action where such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement

or omission or alleged omission was corrected in a final or amended prospectus, and the Company or the underwriters failed to

deliver a copy of the final or amended prospectus at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Registrable Securities to the

Person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability in any case in which such delivery is required by the Securities Act

13

Section 4.3 Notification. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Article IV (the “Indemnified Party”)

shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified

Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense

of any such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom, provided, however, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who

shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably

be withheld or delayed), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense; provided, further,

however, that an Indemnified Party (together with all other Indemnified Parties) shall have the right to retain one (1) separate

counsel, with the reasonable fees and expenses to be paid by the Indemnifying Party, if representation of such Indemnified Party by the

counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to conflicting interests between such Indemnified Party and any

other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall

relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article IV, only to the extent that, the failure to give such notice

is materially prejudicial or harmful to an Indemnifying Party’s ability to defend such action. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense

of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the prior written consent of each Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably

withheld or delayed), consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof

the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

The indemnity agreements contained in this Article IV shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any loss, claim, damage,

liability or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not

be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnification set forth in this Article IV shall be in addition to any other indemnification

rights or agreements that an Indemnified Party may have.

Section 4.4 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Article IV is held by a court of competent jurisdiction

to be unavailable to an Indemnified Party, other than pursuant to its terms, with respect to any claim, loss, damage, liability or action

referred to therein, then, subject to the limitations contained in Article IV, the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying

such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such claim,

loss, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits to the Indemnified Party,

on the one hand, and Indemnifying Party, on the other hand, of the registration giving rise to such action and (ii) the relative fault

of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the actions that resulted in such

claims, loss, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying

Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement

of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact related to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified

Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or

omission. The Company and the Holders agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4

were based solely upon the number of entities from whom contribution was requested or by any other method of allocation which does not

take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 4.4. In no event shall any Holder’s contribution

obligation under this Section 4.4 exceed the amount by which the net proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of

Registrable Securities included in such registration exceeds the amount of any other losses, expenses, settlements, damages, claims and

liabilities that such Holder has been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission

or violation. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution

from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR OTHER PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT,

jurisdiction, shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way

the remaining provisions hereof, provided, however, that the parties will attempt in good faith to reform this Agreement

in a manner consistent with the intent of any such ineffective provision for the purpose of carrying out such intent.

EX-10.2

Filename: ea030400101ex10-2.htm · Sequence: 4

Exhibit 10.2

BOARD APPOINTMENT AGREEMENT

This BOARD APPOINTMENT AGREEMENT

(this “Agreement”), dated as of September 3, 2026, by and among USA Rare Earth, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”)

and VB (Rare Earths) Limited, a limited company incorporated under the Laws of Guernsey (the “Investor”).

1. Board Appointment Rights.

(a) Following

the Closing and subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, as long as the 5% Beneficial Ownership Requirement is met the Investor

shall have the right to (i) designate one (1) Investor Designee for appointment or election to the Board of Directors of Parent (the “Board”)

and (ii) remove a duly elected or appointed Investor Director as a member of the Board (but only to the extent the Parent has the right

to cause such removal). For the avoidance of doubt, from and after such time as the Investor first ceases to satisfy the 5% Beneficial

Ownership Requirement, the designation and removal rights under immediately foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), respectively,

shall terminate, and, at the Board’s request, the Investor shall take all actions within its control to cause the Investor Director

to resign from the Board.

(b) Subject

to the terms and conditions contained herein, the Parent shall include the Investor Designee designated by the Investor in the Parent’s

slate of nominees for the applicable annual meeting of the Parent’s stockholders and shall recommend that the Parent’s stockholders

vote in favor of such Investor Designee and shall support the Investor Designee in a manner no less rigorous and favorable than the manner

in which the Parent supports its other nominees (taking into consideration applicable Securities Laws and fiduciary duties). Without the

prior written consent of the Investor, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, so long as the Investor is entitled to designate

an Investor Designee for election to the Board, the Board shall (i) not remove any Investor Director from his or her directorship, (ii)

not recommend voting against such Investor Designee and (iii) recommend voting against any action or proposal to remove such Investor

Designee. In the event that the 5% Beneficial Ownership Requirement ceases to be satisfied during the term of an Investor Designee as

a director, the Investor Designee shall not be required to resign solely as a result thereof and may continue the remainder of his or

her term in office in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) In

the event of the death, disability, resignation or removal of any Investor Director as a member of the Board or an Investor Designee is

not elected at any annual meeting of Parent’s stockholders, the Investor, if it is entitled to designate an Investor Designee pursuant

to this Agreement, may designate an Investor Designee to replace such Investor Director or Investor Designee (if such Investor Designee’s

board seat is vacant), as applicable, and the Parent shall promptly cause such Investor Designee to fill such resulting vacancy for the

remainder of the term of the replaced Investor Designee and until such replacement’s successor shall have been elected and qualified.

(d) The

Investor shall not designate an individual for election or appointment to the Board, (i) unless such individual is reasonably acceptable

to the Nominating Committee, (ii) where such individual is to be included in the slate of nominees for the applicable annual meeting of

the Parent’s stockholders, the Parent must receive notice of such designation at least 120 days prior to the date of the annual

meeting, (iii) the individual must complete and submit to the Board any questionnaires that the Parent requires of its directors generally

and submit any other information that the Parent or the Nominating Committee reasonably requests in connection with the Parent’s

obligations under the Securities Laws or in connection with the satisfaction of the Nominating Committee’s fiduciary duties.

(e) The

Parent shall indemnify the Investor Director and provide the Investor Director with director and officer insurance to the same extent

as it indemnifies and provides such insurance to other members of the Board. The Parent acknowledges and agrees that it (i) is the indemnitor

of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the Investor Director are primary and any obligation of the Investor Parties to advance

expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by the Investor Director are secondary), and (ii)

shall be required to advance the amount of expenses incurred by the Investor Director and shall be liable for the amount of all expenses

and liabilities incurred by the Investor Director, in each case to the same extent as it indemnifies, insures and provides such advancement

of expenses to other members of the Board, without regard to any rights the Investor Director may have against any Investor Parties or

their Affiliates.

(f) The

parties hereto agree that the Investor Director shall be entitled to the same cash and/or equity compensation (if any) from the Parent

and reimbursement from the Parent for the reasonable out-of-pocket fees or expenses incurred in connection with their service as

a director in a manner consistent with the Parent’s practices with respect to compensation and reimbursement for other members of

the Board, including reimbursement pursuant to customary indemnification arrangements.

Vision Blue Advisors UK LLP shall be considered Affiliates of the Investor. For this purpose, “control” (including, with its

correlative meanings, “controlled by” and “under common control with”) shall mean the possession, directly or

indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of management or policies of a person or entity, whether through the ownership

Exhibit 99.1

USA Rare Earth Completes Combination with Serra

Verde Group

Combines Serra Verde’s world-class upstream

heavy-rare earth operation with USA Rare Earth’s processing, metallization, and magnet-making capabilities

Creates one of the only fully integrated rare

earth and permanent magnet platforms outside Asia

Industry veterans Sir Mick Davis and Thras Moraitis

join the USA Rare Earth Board

Stillwater, Okla. and Goiás, Brazil – September 4,

2026 – USA Rare Earth (Nasdaq: USAR) (“USAR”, “USA Rare Earth”, or the “Company”) today

announced the completion of its combination with Serra Verde Group (“Serra Verde”) on September 3, 2026,  creating a

global rare earths leader and a partner of choice for the supply of advanced materials and products that underpin Western national security

and technological innovation.

Serra Verde is the only scaled producer of all four magnetic and other

critical heavy rare earth elements outside Asia. Its mining and processing operation in Goiás, Brazil began production in January

2024 and is currently completing an advanced-stage optimization and commissioning program, with ramp-up expected in the third quarter

of 2026. The first stage of this program is expected to reach a run-rate of approximately 4,000 tons per annum (tpa) of total rare earth

oxide (TREO) production by the end of 2026. Construction is underway on the second stage of the expansion, targeting average production

of 6,400 tpa of TREO, with commissioning expected to begin within 12 months. Longer term, Serra Verde has the potential to double run

of mine (ROM) production through a Phase 2 expansion.

Serra Verde joins USA Rare Earth’s existing and planned upstream,

midstream and downstream assets in the United States, the United Kingdom and France to create a fully integrated rare earths platform

positioned to deliver a reliable supply chain of vital rare earth elements and derivative products aimed at meeting commercial and public

sector demand at each stage of the value chain.

Michael Blitzer, Executive Chairman of USA Rare Earth, stated: “Demand

for rare earths and permanent magnets is accelerating globally due to demand from rapidly growing forward-facing technologies such as

renewable energy, physical AI, semiconductors, aerospace and defense applications. At the same time, supply outside Asia remains weak

as new sources, especially of heavy rare earths, take time to develop and produce. Over the past years we have assembled, built and integrated

the key assets and capabilities at each step of the value chain, thereby positioning USA Rare Earth at the epicenter of that shift, building

the affordable, dependable, and resilient supply chains of essential rare earth materials that underpin economic competitiveness and national

security. With the Serra Verde combination complete, our focus now turns to execution, integrating operations, and moving efficiently

toward steady-state and reliable supply. To this end, I’m confident we have the right team and platform to play a key role in meeting

the needs of the crucial industries which depend on our products.”

Barbara Humpton, Chief Executive Officer of USA Rare Earth, stated:

“Today marks a significant milestone for USA Rare Earth, and I am pleased to welcome the Serra Verde team to our platform. They

are an exceptionally talented group that has built one of the most strategically important upstream operations in the critical minerals

industry. Our teams have spent months preparing for this combination, and we are ready to move forward as one company with a clear focus

on integration and execution. Together, we have the assets, the expertise, and the global footprint to manage the full rare earth value

chain from the earth to the finished magnet and beyond, providing customers with a secure and resilient source of supply.”

Page 1 of 4

As previously announced, Thras Moraitis, formerly Chief Executive Officer

of Serra Verde, has been appointed President of USA Rare Earth and is joining its Board of Directors. On October 1, 2026, Barbara Humpton

will retire as CEO of USA Rare Earth and Mr. Moraitis will succeed her and lead the combined company. Sir Mick Davis, Chairman of Serra

Verde and former CEO of Xstrata plc, is also joining the USA Rare Earth Board.

Thras Moraitis, President of USA Rare Earth, stated: “For our

team in Brazil, this combination is the culmination of a 15-year journey to build a scaled, sustainable source of the vital rare earth

materials that power the technologies of the future. The combination with USA Rare Earth accelerates our ambition to ensure our heavy

rare earth elements reach end-use customers in the form of advanced materials, including permanent magnets, thereby becoming an important

link in an integrated supply chain. Together, we are positioned to supply critical materials that shape our society’s future by

promoting the prosperity of global industries whose ambitions would otherwise be constrained by a lack of reliable supply. I look forward

to delivering on that promise for our shareholders, customers, employees, governments and communities across Brazil, the United States,

the UK and France.”

EX-99.3 — UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF USAR AS OF AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2026 AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2025

EX-99.3

Filename: ea030400101ex99-3.htm · Sequence: 6

Exhibit 99.3

UNAUDITED

PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Introduction

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined

financial information is derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of USA Rare Earth, Inc. (“USAR” or

the “Company”), and the historical consolidated financial statements of SVRE Holdings Ltd. (“SVRE”), and gives

effect to (i) the Merger (as defined below), (ii) the Private Placement (as defined below), (iii) the Retained Finance Agreement

(as defined below), and (iv) the Offtake Agreement (as defined below) (collectively, the “Pro Forma Transactions”).

On August 21, 2024, Inflection Point Acquisition

Corp. II, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“IPXX”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended on November 11,

2024 and January 30, 2025, the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among IPXX, USA Rare Earth, LLC, a Delaware

limited liability company, and IPXX Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of IPXX. Pursuant

to the Business Combination Agreement, IPXX Merger Sub, LLC merged with and into USA Rare Earth, LLC, with USA Rare Earth, LLC continuing

as the surviving company, and IPXX changed its name to USA Rare Earth, Inc. On March 13, 2025, USAR consummated the previously announced

merger contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and USA Rare Earth, LLC became a direct wholly owned subsidiary of USAR. This

transaction is already reflected in the USAR historical audited consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and the historical

statement of operations of IPXX from January 1, 2025 to March 12, 2025 is not material to the pro forma presentation of the

Merger (as defined below) for the purpose of unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

Merger

On April 19, 2026, USAR entered into a Merger

Agreement by and among (i) USAR, (ii) Middlebury Merger Sub Ltd. (“Merger Sub”), (iii) SVRE, and (iv) Serra

Verde Rare Earths Ltd. The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of SVRE with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub surviving such merger

as an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of USAR (the “Merger”), subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent

to such closing. On September 3, 2026 (“Closing Date”), USAR completed the Merger through issuance of 126,849,307 shares of

USAR’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) and paid an aggregate of $300.0 million of Merger

consideration.

On the Closing Date, all outstanding warrants of

SVRE, including the DFC Warrants, were automatically exercised and converted into SVRE ordinary shares immediately prior to the Merger.

All outstanding RSUs and SARs, whether vested or unvested, were accelerated in full and cancelled in exchange for a pro rata portion of

the Merger consideration. Stock options not subject to performance conditions were similarly cancelled on a cashless basis for Merger

consideration, while performance-vesting options held by continuing service providers were substituted with USAR RSUs subject to continued

service vesting.

Private Placement

On January 26, 2026, USAR, entered into a securities

purchase agreement, for the private placement of 69,767,442 shares of the USAR’s Common Stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately

$1.5 billion, at a price per share of $21.50 (the “Private Placement”). USAR closed the Private Placement and issued

the shares of Common Stock on January 28, 2026.

Parent Loan Agreement

Concurrently with the execution of the Direct Funding

Agreement (“DFA”) and the Loan Guarantee Agreement (“LGA”), USAR entered into a Securities Issuance Agreement

with the DOC and issued to the DOC 16,132,790 shares of Common Stock (the “SIA Shares”) and a warrant to purchase 17,600,584

shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $17.17 per share (the “DOC Warrants”). The SIA Shares were issued in exchange

for access to the awards pursuant to the Direct Funding Agreement, and the DOC Warrants were issued in exchange for obtaining the Loan

Guarantee Agreement.

On June 3, 2026 (the “Award Date”),

USAR issued the SIA Shares and DOC Warrants to the DOC. The SIA Shares were measured at fair value based on USAR’s closing stock

price of $27.98 per share on the Award Date, resulting in an aggregate fair value of $451.4 million, treated as a deferred equity cost.

the DOC Warrants were initially measured at fair value of $430.9 million ($24.48 per warrant share) on the Award Date based on an independent

third-party valuation. The combined fair values for the SIA Shares and DOC Warrants were treated as the total cost incurred to obtain

access to the funding arrangement under the DFA and LGA, and along with other financing costs, were recognized as deferred arrangement

costs in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026.

The deferred equity cost associated with the SIA

Shares under the DFA arrangement will remain on the balance sheet until DFA disbursements are received. Upon receipt of approved cash

disbursements, the Company will reduce a proportionate share of the deferred equity cost with an offset to additional paid in capital.

The disbursement of the DFA is subject to the achievement of various project-specific milestones, the making of cash equity contributions

by USAR to its subsidiaries, the satisfaction of financial ratio and liquidity thresholds, the receipt of required permits and approvals

and other customary conditions, which have not yet been satisfied as of the date of this filing. No amortization of the deferred arrangement

costs have been reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The Company has determined that the DOC warrant

is liability-classified, with an initial fair value of $24.48 per common share, or $430.9 million in aggregate as of the Award Date. The

DOC Warrant liability will be remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized as a

gain or loss within other income (expense), net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive

income (loss). The DOC Warrant liability was initially recorded at fair value with an offsetting entry recorded as a deferred arrangement

costs until the debt associated with the Parent Loan Agreements is drawn. Upon each draw, the deferred arrangement cost will be derecognized

proportionately, and recorded as a component of the related debt’s amortized cost basis, which will be amortized over the term of

the debt using the effective interest method. As of the date of this filing, no amounts associated with the Parent Loan Agreements had

been drawn. Accordingly, no reclassification of the deferred arrangement cost to related debt’s amortized cost basis has been reflected

on the Company’s unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, and no related amortization expense has

been reflected in the Company’s unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the six months ended June 30,

2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Retained Finance Agreement

On January 21, 2026, SVRE entered into a Finance

Agreement with the United States International Development Finance Corporation (the “DFC”), which was amended on March 5,

2026 (as further amended from time to time, the “Retained Finance Agreement”). The Retained Finance Agreement provides SVRE

with long-term debt financing to support its rare earth mining and processing operations in an aggregate committed amount not to exceed

$565.0 million, consisting of (i) an initial loan tranche with a principal amount not to exceed $465.0 million (the “Initial

Loan”), and (ii) a second loan tranche with a principal amount not to exceed $100.0 million (the “Incremental Loan”).

On May 28, 2026, SVRE and the DFC entered into the Second Amendment

to the Finance Agreement, and extended the loan term for both tranches from up to 12 years to up to 15 years from the first closing date,

upon the execution of the Offtake Agreement (see discussion below). In connection with the Incremental Loan, DFC was issued two warrants

(the “DFC Warrants”) granting a combined 12% fully diluted equity interest in the Company, which will automatically exercise

upon the closing of the Merger, at which point the Incremental Loan shall be deemed extinguished in full. The Incremental Loan was closed

on June 4, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of indebtedness of SVRE and its subsidiaries under the

Retained Finance Agreement was $425.0 million. On the Closing Date, the DFC Warrants were exercised and the Incremental Loan was extinguished

in full.

The Initial Loan, Incremental Loan and DFC Warrants

were reflected in the historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet of SVRE as of June 30, 2026, and accordingly, no adjustment

has been reflected within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet for such amounts. Adjustments for the Initial Loan

within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended

December 31, 2025 were included assuming the Initial Loan was executed and drawn down on January 1, 2025. The DFC Warrants exercise and

the extinguishment of the Incremental Loan upon closing of the Merger, have been included as purchase price adjustment as part of the

purchase consideration. Adjustments related to accrued interest, interest expense and issuance cost for DFC Incremental Loan have been

included as transaction adjustments within the unaudited proforma condensed combined financial statements as of and for the six months

ended June 30, 2026.

The Offtake Agreement

On or about the date of the Merger Agreement, SV

Management Switzerland AG (“SV Management Switzerland”), a subsidiary of SVRE, entered into an offtake agreement with a special

purpose vehicle capitalized by the U.S. government, as well as private capital sources (the “Counterparty”) (as amended from

time to time, the “Offtake Agreement”) for the long-term supply of rare earth materials produced by SVRE.

The Offtake Agreement provides for the sale of 100% of the rare earth

products produced from phase one of the Pela Ema project, subject to limited carve-outs. The Incremental Loan was fully disbursed on June

4, 2026, and SVRE’s delivery obligation will be for 100% of phase one production. The agreement remains in effect until the earlier

of specified production-based volume delivery thresholds and the date that is 20 years after the date on which SVRE’s facility

becomes capable of producing the contemplated products (the “Commercial Operations Date”), unless extended with the consent

of the U.S. government. Pricing is based on annually escalated contractual floor prices, with amounts above the applicable floor price,

as well as certain cost savings and yield variances, allocated 70% to SV Management Switzerland and 30% to the Counterparty. Commencement

of deliveries is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified conditions precedent by the agreed long-stop date, June 12, 2026,

and either party may terminate the agreement without liability if such conditions were not satisfied or waived by that date. On June 29,

2026, SV Management Switzerland and the Counterparty entered into an amendment, consent and waiver to the Offtake Agreement that extended

the long-stop date from June 12, 2026 to August 14, 2026. The long-stop date was further extended to August 21, 2026 and all conditions

were satisfied on this day. SVRE has not recorded any accounting entries related to the Offtake Agreement in their unaudited condensed

consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2026. Adjustments related to the Offtake agreement have been included within the unaudited

pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2026.

Issuance of Earnout Shares

In connection with the business combination between

the Company and USA Rare Earth, LLC, the Company agreed to issue common stock of the Company (the “earnout shares”) to certain

shareholders of USA Rare Earth, LLC in two tranches upon the occurrence of certain triggering events. On April 15, 2026, the Company achieved

the market-price condition for the first tranche of earnout shares, as the Company’s common stock exceeded $15.00 per share for

at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days. 5.05 million shares were issued to USA Rare Earth, LLC shareholders. The second tranche

of 5.05 million earnout shares were issued on May 15, 2026 when the Company achieved the market-price condition for the second tranche,

as the Company’s common stock exceeds $20.00 per share for at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days.

The earnout shares were classified as liabilities

and remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis prior to conversion. Upon issuance of the two tranches of the earnout shares, the related

earnout liability was reclassified to common stock and additional paid-in capital. The effect of the conversion has been included within

the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2026.

(“ASC 805”). Under the acquisition method of accounting, SVRE’s assets and liabilities are recorded at their respective

fair values. Any difference between the purchase price for SVRE and the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired (including

intangibles) is recorded as goodwill. The assets and liabilities of SVRE have been measured based on various preliminary estimates using

assumptions that USAR’s management believes were reasonable and based on currently available information. Accordingly, the pro forma

adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial

information.

Differences between these preliminary estimates

and the final purchase accounting may occur, and the final purchase accounting could be materially different from the preliminary estimates

used to prepare the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and could have a material impact on the

combined company’s future results of operations and financial position.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial

information appearing below does not consider any potential effects of changes in market conditions on revenues or expense efficiencies,

among other factors. In addition, as explained in more detail in the accompanying notes, the preliminary allocation of the pro forma purchase

price reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is subject to adjustment and may vary significantly

from what will be recorded upon completion of the final purchase price allocation.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial

information has been prepared based on the aforementioned historical financial statements and the assumptions and adjustments as described

in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The pro forma adjustments reflect transaction accounting

adjustments related to the Pro Forma Transactions, which are discussed in further detail below. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined

financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent the combined company’s consolidated

results of operations or the consolidated financial position that would actually have occurred had the Pro Forma Transactions been consummated

on the dates assumed or to project the combined company’s consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position

for any future date or period.

The accounting policies followed in preparing the

unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are those used by USAR as set forth in the audited historical financial statements.

Based on the Company’s initial review and understanding of SVRE’s significant accounting policies, there are no material adjustments

required at this time to conform SVRE’s historical financial information to USAR’s significant accounting policies. A more

comprehensive comparison and assessment will occur, which may result in additional differences being identified. Additionally, USAR has

included certain preliminary presentation adjustments for consistency in the financial statement presentation. See Notes 2 and 3 below

for more information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined

financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not reflect the costs of any integration activities or cost

savings or synergies that may be achieved because of the Merger.

USAR and SVRE have not had any historical material

relationship prior to the Merger. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

1. Basis of Presentation

The pro forma adjustments have been prepared as

if the Pro Forma Transactions had been consummated on June 30, 2026, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance

sheet, and, in the case of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations, as if the Pro Forma Transactions had been

consummated on January 1, 2025, the beginning of the earliest period presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements

of operations.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial

information has been prepared assuming the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method,

SVRE’s assets and liabilities are recorded at their respective fair values. Any difference between the purchase price for SVRE and

the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired (including intangibles) is recorded as goodwill. The assets and liabilities of

SVRE have been measured based on various preliminary estimates using assumptions that USAR’s management believes are reasonable

and based on currently available information. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the

purpose of providing this unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The pro forma adjustments represent management’s

estimates based on information available as of the date of the Form 8-K and are subject to change as additional information becomes available

and additional analyses are performed.

USAR has performed a preliminary review to identify

any accounting policy differences between the accounting policies used in SVRE’s financial statements and those of the Company,

where the impact was potentially material and could be reasonably estimated, with the Company identifying no such differences.

2. Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance

Sheet as of June 30, 2026

The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma

condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2026 are as follows:

(A) Reflects reclassification adjustments to conform SVRE’s

historical balances to the financial statement presentation of USAR.

(B) Reflects the purchase price allocation adjustments to record

SVRE’s identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. This adjustment

reflects the recording of the preliminary estimate of goodwill and the elimination of the historical equity balances of SVRE. Additionally,

the adjustment removes SVRE’s outstanding warrant liability, to reflect the conversion of all warrants into SVRE’s ordinary

shares immediately prior to the Merger.

Pursuant to ASC 805, the preliminary purchase price was

allocated among the identified net assets acquired, based on a preliminary analysis. Goodwill is recognized as a result of the Merger,

which represents the excess fair value of consideration over the fair value of the underlying net assets of SVRE. The deferred income

taxes represent the deferred tax impact associated with the incremental differences in book and tax basis created from the preliminary

purchase price allocation. Deferred taxes associated with estimated fair value adjustments were calculated using the statutory corporate

tax rate in Brazil of 34%. The estimates of fair value are based upon preliminary valuation assumptions, and are believed to be reasonable,

but are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. As a result, actual results may differ from estimates, and the difference may be material.

The following is a preliminary estimate of fair value of the

assets acquired and the liabilities assumed by USAR in the Merger, reconciled to the estimated purchase consideration (in thousands):

(1) The $3.1 billion allocated to property, plant and equipment,

net, is related to development stage properties. Upon the closing of the Merger, the mine will continue to be designated as a development

stage property, and related development costs will continue to be capitalized until the milestones necessary to be considered operational

are achieved. An expansion and optimization project is currently being implemented that is expected to result in higher production capacity,

a sustained lower operating cost profile and enhanced product quality. Construction is expected to be completed, and commercial operations

are expected to commence in 2027.

(2) Other intangible assets is comprised of an Offtake Agreement.

The Offtake Agreement asset is expected to be amortized on a systematic basic using the units of production method. As of the date of

this Form 8-K, delivery pursuant to the Offtake Agreement has not started. Accordingly, amortization of the Offtake Agreement had not

commenced as of the pro forma transaction date and no related amortization expense has been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed

combined statement of operations.

9

(3) This reflects an increase in the fair value of the liability

for royalty payments due to an increase in estimated future cash payments. The increase in estimated future cash payments is primarily

related to the anticipated impact of the Offtake Agreement.

(4) The $100.0 million Incremental Loan was deemed forgiven upon

exercise of the DFC Warrants at closing of the Merger.

(5) This amount represents cash consideration paid to SVRE’s

shareholders.

(6) Equity consideration is provided in the form of Common Stock

of USAR and is calculated as 126,849,307 shares of USAR Common Stock to be issued to SVRE shareholders, multiplied by $17.85, the closing

share price of USAR on September 2, 2026.

(7) This reflects the pre-combination expense pertaining to options

to purchase SVRE shares subject to performance-vesting conditions (the “Performance-Vesting Options”) which will be substituted

with USAR time-vesting restricted stock units.

(C) Reflects the impact of nonrecurring expenses related to transaction

costs, primarily comprised of investment banking fees, legal fees, issuance costs, accounting and audit fees, and other related advisory

costs. $0.2 million was incurred and accrued on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2026. The related income statement adjustment is reflected

in adjustment (CC).

(D) Reflects the impact of payment of accrued interest and the write-off

of unamortized debt issuance costs on the Incremental Loan into additional paid-in capital. The Incremental Loan was deemed forgiven

upon exercise of the DFC warrants at closing of the Merger.

3. Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement

of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025

The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma

condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025 are as

follows:

(AA) Reflects a reclassification adjustment to conform SVRE’s

historical expenses to the financial statement presentation of USAR.

(CC) Reflects the recognition of nonrecurring expenses related to

estimated transaction costs in the amount of $96.4 million, which are primarily comprised of investment banking fees, legal fees, issuance

costs, accounting and audit fees, and other related advisory costs. The related balance sheet adjustment is reflected at adjustment (C).

(DD) Reflects the recognition of post-combination stock-based compensation

expense in the amount of $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 related

to Performance-Vesting Options which were substituted with USAR time-vesting restricted stock units.

(EE) Reflects the elimination of the recognized loss due to the change in

fair value of warrant liability in an amount equal to $125.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $7.7 million for the year

ended December 31, 2025 related to the private placement warrants issued by SVRE to its investors. These warrants were settled through

equity consideration to the holders pursuant to the Merger. The related balance sheet adjustment is reflected in adjustment (B).

(FF) Reflects the elimination of interest related to Class A Preferred

Shares in an amount equal to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025

due to their redemption pursuant to the side letter agreement, dated March 5, 2026, between SVRE and Orion.

10

(GG) Reflects interest expense related to long-term debt financing of SVRE

pursuant to the Retained Finance Agreement, calculated using an estimated interest rate of Term SOFR plus 4%. This adjustment also includes

the amortization of estimated debt discount and debt issuance costs of $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $1.9 million

for the year ended December 31, 2025. An increase or decrease of one-eighth of a percent in the interest rate would not result in a significant

change in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025.

(HH) Reflects the elimination of interest related to the OMF Credit

Agreement in an amount equal to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $0.7 million for the year ended December 31,

2025 due to their repayment.

(II) Reflects the elimination of interest expense and issuance cost

amortization of $0.6 million related to the Incremental Loan for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

4. Unaudited Pro Forma Net Loss Per Share

The pro forma net loss per share calculations have

been performed for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025, assuming the Pro Forma Transactions

had been consummated on January 1, 2025.

and therefore are not reflected separately.

The Company’s potentially dilutive outstanding securities, including

DOC Warrant to purchase 17,600,584 shares of USAR Common Stock were excluded from the computation of pro forma diluted net loss per share

because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
