9th April 2026 - Delta Gold Technologies PLC ("Delta Gold" or the "Company") (Aquis: DGQ /OTC:DGQTF), a technology company developing intellectual property in the quantum computing ("QC") space, is pleased to announce the appointment of Haynes Boone as company counsel for global intellectual property protection. Haynes Boone is an international law firm with significant experience in intellectual property matters, including patent prosecution, portfolio management, and the enforcement of IP rights for some of the world's leading companies.   It was recently named the No. 2 best-performing American-based patent prosecution law firm in a field of 250 by leading analytics platform LexDana. The Haynes Boone practice in London represents Delta on general corporate matters, while the firm's offices in California, Texas, New York, Washington, D.C. and Virginia will support Delta's intellectual property strategy and protection.

Delta Gold Technologies has agreed with the University of Toronto ("U of T") that Haynes Boone will be appointed to work collaboratively with the University's patent portfolio officers in the Innovations, Partnerships and Entrepreneurship Division. The initial IP protections arising from the University of Toronto are planned for joint development and will be held by the University of Toronto under a global exclusive licence to Delta.

The Penn State research agreement with Delta Gold grants Delta the exclusive right to the developed IP, and Haynes Boone's U.S. practice will also assist Delta with this work. Under the Penn State intellectual property agreement, similar to the U of T arrangement, Penn State will prosecute patents and Delta, with the assistance of Haynes Boone, will advise and comment.
