The MD-N01 Battery Grip from Ziv is designed specifically for the Nikon D500 DSLR camera and accepts one Nikon EN-EL15 battery. With one battery in the grip and one in the camera, your shooting time is effectively doubled. The MD-N01 can also hold and utilize eight AA batteries. Two battery trays, one for the EN-EL15 and one for the AAs, are included.
The design of a battery grip offers a comfortable and secure way in which to hold your DSLR, especially in the vertical position. The MD-N01 comes with an alternate shutter release button to facilitate shooting when held vertically. The shutter button offers a lock position to prevent accidental release. In addition, the grip has alternate AF-ON and Fn buttons, as well as multi selector, main and sub-command dials. It is designed with an anti-slip rubber grip and firm curvature to further improve handling. A tripod socket is included, as is a holder for the camera's contact cover; so as not to lose it when it has been removed to install the battery grip.

Looks like works like a Nikon

I've only used it one time, but it appears to work as well as a Nikon product. It feels nice in my hand and operates well. No negatives.
No, it is not a Nikon grip . . .

But it is awfully close and perfectly sensible if, like me, you only need it for sometime use. In my case that would be the few times i shoot action/motorsports with a long telephoto. No the switches are not up to Nikon's quality but the body moldings are close to perfect and it comes -- like the Nikon -- with both an EL-15a and 8xAAs. i doubt that i will ever shoot enough in one day to actually need the second battery but you never know.

Will the Ziv AA battery holder work in a MB-D17 grip?
The Ziv AA battery holder will not work in a Ziv MD-N01 Battery Grip for Nikon D500. The grip will accept either one EN-EL15 battery or 8 AA batteries.
