FISSION ENERGY CORP. ("Fission" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:FIS) is pleased
to announce that its previously announced plan of arrangement (the
"Arrangement") with Denison Mines Corp.("Denison") has closed. Pursuant to the
Arrangement, Denison acquired all of the outstanding common shares of Fission
(the "Fission Shares") with Fission spinning out certain assets into a
newly-incorporated exploration company, Fission Uranium Corp. ("Fission
Uranium"). Under the Arrangement, each Fission Share was exchanged for 0.355 of
a common share of Denison, a nominal cash amount of $0.0001 and a common share
of Fission Uranium. 


On April 23, 2013, Fission shareholders and optionholders overwhelmingly voted
in favour of the special resolution approving the Arrangement. The Arrangement
received final approval of the British Columbia Supreme Court and TSX Venture
Exchange (the "TSX-V") on April 25, 2013. 


In addition, Fission provided approximately C$17 million in funding to Fission
Uranium. With the completion of the Arrangement, we are advised that Fission
Shares will cease trade on the TSX-V upon close of business on Monday, April 29,
2013 and are expected to be de-listed shortly after that. Fission Shares trading
during this time represent only an entitlement to receive the consideration
under the Arrangement, as described above. Fission Uranium common shares are
expected to commence trading on the TSX-V on Wednesday, May 1, 2013 under the
symbol "FCU". 


All unexercised Fission options and warrants will be exercisable for common
shares of Denison and Fission Uranium on similar terms, adjusted in respect of
exercise price and number, using the same exchange ratio as for the Fission
Shares.
