PRESS RELEASE
DENISON ANNOUNCES ESTABLISHMENT OF AT-THE-MARKET PROGRAM
Toronto, ON – Nov 13, 2020. Denison Mines Corp. (“Denison” or the “Company”) (DML: TSX, DNN:
NYSE American) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an equity distribution agreement dated
November 13, 2020 (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”), providing for an at -the-market (“ATM”) equity
offering program, with Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation (“CFCC”), Scotia Capital Inc. (together with
CFCC, the “Co-Lead Canadian Agents”), Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. (together
with the Co-Lead Canadian Agents, the “Agents”).
The ATM will allow Denison, through the Agent s, to, from time to time, offer and sell, in Canada and the
United States through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and/or NYSE American, such
number of common shares as would have an aggregate offering price of up to USD$20 million. Sales of
the common shares, if any, will be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the TSX and/or
NYSE American or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale.
The Company considers the ATM to be a valuable tool for potential future access to the public market,
where equity offerings can occur at market prices and with significantly reduced costs. The timing and
extent of the use of the ATM will be at the discretion of the Company. Accordingly, total gross proceeds
from equity offerings under the ATM may be significantly less than the maximum of US D$20 million. As
outlined in the prospectus supplement, the Company intends to use the proceeds from the ATM to fund its
mineral property evaluation and project engineering activities, as well as general, corporate and
administrative expenses. The ATM will be effective until July 2, 2022 unless terminated prior to such date
by Denison or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement
The sale of the Company’s common shares through the ATM will be made pursuant to, and qualified in
Canada by, a prospectus supplement dated November 13, 2020 (“Prospectus Supplement”) to the base
shelf prospectus of the Company dated June 2, 2020 (“Base Prospectus” ), and in the United States
pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated November 13, 2020 to the Company’s final base shelf
prospectus contained in the Company’s registration statement Form F -10 (File No. 333 -238108) as
amended and declared effective on June 3, 2020 (the “U.S. Registration Statement”) filed with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “ATM Prospectus”). Copies of the
Prospectus Supplement and Base Prospectus may be obtained for free from SEDAR at www.sedar.com,
