Press Release

May 27, 2025

CALGARY, ALBERTA – (May 27, 2025) – CVW CleanTech Inc. (the “Company” or “CVW CleanTech”) (TSX-V: CVW, OTCQX: CVWFF, FSE: TMD0) is pleased to announce that it will be seeking shareholder approval to change its name to “CVW Sustainable Royalties Inc.” and change its listing status from a “technology issuer” to an “investment issuer” (the “Classification Change”) pursuant to the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”).

The Classification Change will provide the Company with additional flexibility to diversify its clean technology portfolio by investing in other clean technologies within the Company’s target industry sectors using royalty and similar structures. The Company remains steadfast in its commitment to commercializing the Creating Value from Waste™ (“CVW™”) technology.

At the Meeting, shareholders will also be asked to consider and if thought advisable, approve a resolution authorizing the Company to amend its articles to change the name of the Company from “CVW CleanTech Inc.” to “CVW Sustainable Royalties Inc.”, or such other name that the board of directors of the Company determines appropriate and as may be acceptable to applicable regulatory authorities.

“We are excited about this strategic evolution that positions the Company to invest in technologies within the hydrocarbon, metals and materials, and agriculture sectors, while maintaining our commitment to commercializing our CVW™ technology,” said Akshay Dubey, CEO of CVW CleanTech. “The classification and name change create significant opportunities to deliver strong risk-adjusted shareholder value by accelerating cash flows. We are strong believers that the deployment of innovative technologies in the commodity sector will drive forward both the world’s economic and environmental sustainability. Our royalty financing structure is poised to create a leading platform in this space with a strategy that will allow shareholders to benefit from diversification and scale.”

The Company has called a meeting of shareholders to be held on June 27, 2025 at 10:00AM Mountain Time (the “Meeting”) to approve, among other items of business, the Classification Change pursuant to Exchange Policy 5.2 – Changes of Business and Reverse Takeovers. For more information, please refer to the information circular dated May 14, 2025 (the “Circular”).

The Classification Change is not being conducted in connection with a transaction or financing, and instead is intended to reflect the Company’s strategy moving forward. The Classification Change reflects the Company’s intention to expand its investment portfolio focused on royalties, which commenced with its maiden investment in Northstar Clean Technologies Inc. (see the prior press release dated August 7, 2024). Further to this objective, the board of directors has approved an investment policy (the “Investment Policy”), a copy of which can be found in the Circular.

Shareholders of the Company are encouraged to review the in-depth discussion of the Company’s business plan and Investment Policy contained in the Circular. Readers should note that completion of the Classification Change is subject to Exchange and shareholder approval. The Classification Change cannot proceed until the required shareholder approval is obtained, and there is no assurance that it will be completed.
