Iveda Solutions, Inc. Secures DTC Eligibility Status

MESA, AZ--(Marketwire - Nov 20, 2012) - Iveda Solutions (OTCBB: IVDA) announced today that it has secured Depository Trust Company (DTC) eligibility, for the Company's shares trading on Over the Counter Bulletin Board.

"Our shares can now be traded and settled electronically, providing our shareholders greater liquidity and an expansion of the types of investors who can now consider our shares for investment," said Brian Duling, Chief Financial Officer of Iveda Solutions.

The DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), and manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly-traded company stocks and other securities. DTC provides for the centralized custody of securities so that they exist only as electronic files rather than as physical certificates. This process provides banks, brokerage firms, and other institutions with an efficient means of moving securities and settling trades electronically.

"This eligibility will allow our OTCBB listing to more effectively pursue increased exposure of the company to the investment community. We continue to make positive steps to grow the Company and this is one more step in that continuum. We will continue to update our shareholders on our progress," said Duling.
