  TMRC stockholders will own only ~1.5% of the combined company post-merger, while current USAR shareholders will own ~98.5%. TMRC's 18.7% interest in the Round Top rare earth project has been diluted from 20% due to inability to fund $631k in cash calls during fiscal 2025.

  TMRC has accumulated deficit of $45.1M and reported a GAAP net loss of $1.9M for fiscal 2025 with zero revenues. The company has cash only through August 2026 for general expenses and cannot fund any Round Top cash calls, creating substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

  The merger agreement includes a $3.25M termination fee payable by TMRC under certain circumstances, which may discourage competing acquisition proposals. Tax treatment is uncertain: the merger may not qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a), potentially triggering taxable gain for TMRC stockholders.
