RZOLV Technologies achieves DTC eligibility

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 28, 2026) - RZOLV Technologies Inc. (TSXV: RZL) (OTCQB: RZOLF) (FSE: S711) ("RZOLV" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that its common shares are now eligible for electronic clearing and settlement in the United States through the Depository Trust Company ("DTC"). HIGHLIGHTS RZOLV's common shares, quoted on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "RZOLF" , are now eligible for electronic clearing and settlement in the United States through the Depository Trust Company. DTC eligibility is expected to simplify the settlement process, reduce administrative barriers and improve access to RZOLV's common shares for U.S. institutional and retail investors.

The milestone complements RZOLV's OTCQB listing and strengthens the Company's capital-markets infrastructure in the United States. Existing shareholders are not required to take any action as a result of the Company's common shares becoming DTC eligible. DTC eligibility is expected to facilitate more efficient electronic settlement of trades involving RZOLV's common shares quoted on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "RZOLF" .

The eligibility may also allow a broader range of U.S. brokerage firms, custodians and institutional platforms to more efficiently hold, clear and settle transactions in the Company's common shares. "Achieving DTC eligibility is an important next step in building a more accessible and efficient U.S. market for RZOLV's shares," said Duane Nelson, President and Chief Executive Officer of RZOLV Technologies . "Since commencing trading on the OTCQB Venture Market in February, our objective has been to make RZOLV easier to access, hold and trade through established U.S. brokerage and custodial channels." "DTC eligibility addresses an important settlement consideration for many U.S. market participants and strengthens the capital-markets foundation supporting the Company's growth," continued Mr. Nelson.

"This milestone comes as RZOLV continues to advance independent technical validation, strategic industry relationships, pilot-scale testing and potential commercialization opportunities across precious metals, base metals, rare earth elements and other critical minerals." DETAILS DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC") and provides depository, electronic book-entry and settlement services for eligible publicly traded securities in the United States. With DTC eligibility, RZOLV's common shares may be deposited, held, transferred and settled electronically through DTC's network of participating broker-dealers, banks, custodians and other financial institutions. This is expected to reduce reliance on physical share certificates and manual transfer procedures while supporting more efficient settlement for U.S. market participants.

The Company commenced trading on the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "RZOLF" on February 17, 2026, at which time it announced that an application for DTC eligibility had been submitted. The completion of the DTC eligibility process represents a further step in RZOLV's strategy to improve its visibility and accessibility within the United States capital markets. DTC eligibility does not involve the issuance of any new common shares and does not change the rights of existing shareholders, the Company's capital structure or its primary listing on the TSX Venture Exchange.

Existing shareholders are not required to take any action. RZOLV's common shares continue to trade on: the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "RZL" ; the OTCQB Venture Market under the symbol "RZOLF" ; and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol "S711" .
