Lightbridge metallic fuel to be featured in the April 2018 edition of Nuclear Engineering and Design

Lightbridge Corporation ("Lightbridge") has learned that its innovative nuclear fuel will be featured in the April 2018 edition of Nuclear Engineering and Design, an international journal devoted to all aspects of nuclear fission energy. The article, entitled "Proliferation resistant plutonium: An updated analysis," explores the proliferation resistance of Lightbridge's fuel. The authors performed an independent evaluation via computer simulation of Lightbridge's fuel design for a pressurized water reactor and came to the conclusion that the resultant plutonium would be useless in current nuclear weapon designs.

Investors are encouraged to read the article in its entirety, including important assumptions and limitations discussed therein.
