Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On April 5, 2023, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Ur-Energy Inc. (the "Company") approved an amendment to the Company's compensation program as it relates to the executive officers of the Company. The change was made following a review of our compensation program and executive compensation by an independent compensation consultant. The independent consultant made certain recommendations, based upon a market review and analysis of our peer comparator companies, to begin to better align our program with those of our peers. The amendment made by the Board affects the target short-term incentive bonus available to the executive officers of the Company, increasing the 'at-risk' portion of each executive's compensation under the program. The target bonus for the Chief Executive Officer was increased from 40% of base salary to 60%; the target bonus for the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Corporate Secretary was increased from 30% of base salary to 45%. The change was applied to the short-term incentive bonuses for calendar year 2022 by resolution of the Board.

On April 10, 2023, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Ur-Energy USA Inc. ("Ur-Energy USA") entered into an amendment to the existing employment agreement of Chief Executive Officer, John W. Cash, to reflect changes previously disclosed as he was named Chief Executive Officer, including a change to the amount of severance payment that may become payable to Mr. Cash, and related to his compensation all as previously disclosed (and non-material changes to his salary in 2022 following cost-of-living and other adjustments made pursuant to the Board's approval).
