Forms Special Committee of Independent Directors in Response to No Shop Provision in the Promissory Note

The Board of Directors of Capstone Companies, Inc., a Florida corporation, (“Company”)(OTCQB: CAPC) is committed to enhancing shareholder value and regularly evaluates potential strategic, financial and operational alternatives as the Company continues to execute its strategic business development plan, which is focused on seeking a business line with the potential for growth and profitability.

Working Capital Funding. On March 4, 2026, the Company received $250,000 in working capital funding under an unsecured Lump Sum Payment Promissory Note (“Note”), dated March 3, 2026, issued to eBliss Global, Inc., the lender and an early stage private Delaware company, (“eBliss”) that is engaged in development and production of e-mobility technologies, primarily and initially being ebikes for personal transportation. eBliss anticipates starting production of its line of e-bikes at a Utica, New York factory in 2026. Funding under the Note occurred on March 4, 2026. The Note bears simple annual interest of 7% and principal and interest are due in a lump-sum payment on March 4, 2027. The funding under the Note is partial consideration for the ‘no shop’ provision described below.

No Shop Provision. The Note contains a 90-day ‘no shop’ provision to permit the Company and eBliss to discuss the possibility and feasibility of a mutually beneficial business relationship, which 90-day period provides eBliss with a qualified, exclusive right to discuss with the Company the possibility of a merger, other business combination, stock or asset acquisition, strategic relationship or joint venture for product development and production or a similar transaction (collectively, “Transactions”). If no agreement or letter of intent is signed within the first 60 days of the 90-day ‘no shop’ period, then the Company may entertain third party proposals for Transactions that are deemed superior to any existing, pending proposal for a Transaction from eBliss. The ‘no shop’ provision does not obligate either company to enter into any agreement or to consummate any mutually beneficial business relationship or transaction and is merely allowing the companies to explore whether any basis exists for a mutually beneficial relationship.

Stewart Wallach, Capstone’s Chairman, stated, “Capstone has engaged in a careful, deliberate business development effort to locate a new business line that has the potential for sustained growth and profitability. This approach serves the best interests of the Company’s public shareholders. While the focus has been on opportunities in the health, fitness and social activities industry, Capstone’s primary goal is finding opportunities with growth and profit potential, regardless of the industry. The ‘no shop’ provision in the Note is merely exploratory in nature and should not be regarded as an indication of the prospects for any agreement or transaction, but it reflects the continued effort of Capstone management to serve the interests of Capstone’s public shareholders.”

Special Independent Director Committee. As part of discussing possible mutually beneficial relationships under the ‘no shop’ provision, the Company will form a special committee of independent, disinterested directors, consisting of Jeffrey Guzy and Warner Session, to participate in discussions with eBliss during the No Shop Period.

No Existing Agreement or Commitment. There is no existing agreement or letter of intent or other commitment obligating the Company and eBliss to negotiate or consummate any Transactions and no such agreement or letter of intent or commitment, and no Transactions, may result from the discussions between the Company and eBliss. There can be no assurance that the Company will pursue any particular Transaction or other strategic outcome, or that a proposed Transaction will be consummated. The Company does not intend to disclose further developments regarding this matter unless and until further disclosure is determined to be appropriate or necessary.
