Vizsla Royalties Announces Adoption of New Compensation Plan and Grant of Incentive Rewards

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 11, 2025) - Vizsla Royalties Corp. (TSXV: VROY) ("Vizsla Royalties" or the "Company") announces that, effective April 1, 2025, the Company's board of directors adopted an omnibus equity inventive compensation plan (the "Omnibus Plan") to replace the Company's existing stock option plan.

The purpose of the Omnibus Plan is to: (i) promote a significant alignment between officers and employees of the Company and the growth objectives of the Company; (ii) to associate a portion of participating employees' compensation with the performance of the Company over the long term; and (iii) to attract, motivate and retain the critical employees to drive the business success of the Company.

Pursuant to the terms of the Omnibus Plan, the Company has granted 2,800,000 performance share units (each, a "PSU") to officers, directors, employees and consultants of the Company. The PSUs will vest after one year, contingent on the achievement of specific performance targets. If the performance conditions are met, each vested PSU entitles the holder to receive one common share of the Company, or, at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, may be settled in cash.

The Omnibus Plan and all issuances granted under the Omnibus Plan, including the grant of PSUs, are subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and disinterested shareholder approval. These approvals will be sought at the Company's next annual general meeting to be held in Q3 2025.
