Arya Resources increases flow-through financing to $2.19M

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 16, 2026) - Arya Resources Ltd. (TSXV: RBZ) (" Arya " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that, further to its previously announced non-brokered private placement ( see news release dated April 08, 2026 ), the Company has increased the flow-through component of the financing from $2,000,000 to $2,190,000 due to strong investor demand. The upsized flow-through component will now consist of up to 4,380,000 flow-through common shares (the "FT Shares") at a price of $0.50 per FT Share, for gross proceeds of up to $2,190,000. Rasool Mohammad, President and CEO of Arya Resources, commented: "We initially capped the flow-through financing at $2.0 million, with only a modest increase to $2.19 million to manage dilution prudently.

While demand was strong, we elected not to accept additional subscriptions to maintain a disciplined capital structure and minimize dilution to our shareholders." "We were very encouraged by the strong demand for the flow-through financing," said Peter K. Deacon, Director. "While we would have welcomed all interested participants, we remain committed to protecting our existing shareholders by carefully managing dilution. We are also very proud of Rasool's leadership and the tangible value he continues to build for the Company." The proceeds from the FT Shares will be used to incur eligible "Canadian exploration expenses" that qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" (as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) ) and will be renounced to subscribers with an effective date no later than December 31, 2026.

Funds will be directed toward the continued advancement of the Company's Saskatchewan exploration projects, including the Wedge Lake Gold Project and the Dunlop Nickel-Copper-Cobalt Project . All other terms of the financing remain unchanged from the Company's prior announcement, including the terms of the concurrent non-flow-through component of the financing. The financing remains subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange").

Finder's fees may be payable in accordance with applicable securities laws and Exchange policies. About Arya Resources Ltd.
