Exhibit NWMI-007-R U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Commission Mandatory Meeting Environmental Panel January 23, 2018 11

Exhibit NWMI-007-R Development of Environmental Report Granted an exemption to submit the Construction Permit Application in two parts

[Published in Federal Register (FR) on October 24, 2013 (78 FR 63501)]

NRC conducted an independent evaluation of Part One of the Construction Permit Application and developed potential impacts of NWMIs proposed action Environmental Impact Statement Development Milestones

- NWMI submitted Part One of Construction Permit Application: February 5, 2015

- Environmental Site Audit/Scoping Meeting: December 8 & 9, 2015 (Columbia, MO)

- Draft EIS public comment period: November 1 - December 29, 2016 (Public meeting on December 6, 2016 in Columbia, Missouri)

- Final EIS published May 31, 2017 NUREG-2209, Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Construction Permit for the Northwest Medical Isotopes Radioisotope Production Facility (ADAMS Accession No. ML17130A862) 2

Exhibit NWMI-007-R Proposed Action Decide whether to issue a construction permit under 10 CFR 50 that would allow construction of the NWMI medical radioisotope production facility (RPF)

If a construction permit is granted by NRC, NWMI could build the proposed facility at the 3 hectare (7.4-acre) Discovery Ridge Research Park (Discovery Ridge) site, in Boone County, Columbia, Missouri NWMI RPF activities include:

- Fabricating low-enriched uranium (LEU) targets (including uranium recycle and recovery)

- Shipping targets to university research reactors

- Irradiating LEU targets at university research reactors

- Returning targets to RPF

- LEU target dissolution

- Molybdenum-99 (99Mo) recovery and purification 3

Exhibit NWMI-007-R Connected Actions (continued)

Few facility modifications will be required No exterior construction anticipated for any reactor No changes in land use Minimal changes in staffing Authorization for possession and use of targets will be promulgated under the license amendment process for each facility

- MURR early 2018

- OSU early 2019 Third facility has been selected but not socialized 10
