Westwater Resources receives LOI from EXIM for Kellyton Graphite Plant

Westwater Resources (WWR) announced that it has received a letter of interest from US EXIM Bank for its Kellyton Graphite Plant, under the “Make More in America Initiative” and the “China and Transformational Export Program.” The letter of interest is separate from the Phase I debt syndication process for the Kellyton plant previously announced, which is still progressing. “Westwater continues to make progress syndicating its previously announced debt facility. This LOI from EXIM adds additional potential sources of funding as we continue the development of our Kellyton graphite anode processing plant, which is 100% sold out for phase one,” said Steve Cates, Westwater’s Chief Financial Officer. The progression from a letter of interest to a loan commitment from EXIM requires a formal application, and for EXIM to complete due diligence, underwriting, and finalization of terms and conditions. No assurance can be given that the Company will ultimately enter into a loan transaction with EXIM.
