Medical Marijuana, Inc.’s Real Scientific Hemp Oil [RSHO] Signs Landmark First Pharmaceutical Sales and Distribution Agreement as Part of its Global Expansion

Company’s Globally Popular Hemp Cannabidiol (CBD) Oil Brand, [RSHO]™, Now Shipping to all U.S. Territories and Caribbean Island Pharmacy Retail Locations

San Diego, CA – September 23, 2015 – As the U.S. territories and Caribbean Islands wait for medical marijuana to make its debut, Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC Pink: MJNA) is proud to immediately offer residents an alternative: Real Scientific Hemp Oil [RSHO]™.  

“It is interesting to note that the U.S. territories and Caribbean Islands have recently scheduled medical marijuana within the area as a Schedule 2 substance,” states Stuart W. Titus, PhD and Chief Executive Officer of Medical Marijuana, Inc. “This means that the local government believes there is some medicinal value in cannabis / marijuana.  Nonetheless, we at MJNA are thrilled to have an exclusive agreement that is actively providing non-psychoactive cannabidiol or ‘CBD’ hemp oil products to residents of the U.S. territories and Caribbean Islands.”

Hemp is widely regarded as a “whole food” and “super food.” Medical Marijuana, Inc.’s cannabidiol (CBD) hemp oil is derived from the mature stalk of the hemp plant and is considered a food nutrient delivering the benefits of cannabinoids without the psychotropic/euphoric effects of THC.  Hemp oil products from Medical Marijuana, Inc. and its master distributor, HempMeds®, are readily available to ship to all 50 U.S. states, districts and territories plus more than 40 countries around the world.

As part of the agreement, HempMeds has already shipped its first month’s purchase order, and as part of the contract it requires a minimum annual requirement of $1,000,000 USD in sales. The 12-month exclusive distribution agreement for [RSHO]™ includes two annual sales revenue-based exclusivity extension options with one of the largest privately owned pharmaceutical sales and distribution companies in the U.S. territories and Caribbean Islands. This [RSHO]™ authorized distributor holds more than 60 years of proven service to the islands and has effectively opened retail product sales of cannabidiol (CBD) hemp oil into more than 750 retail pharmacy locations and drugstore chains throughout the Caribbean.

The full scope of the exclusive [RSHO]™ distributor’s sales channel includes: pharmaceutical, consumer goods, health and beauty, general merchandise, grocery, and household goods. The distributor’s vertical market reach is currently to: hospitals, government institutions, community pharmacies, drugstore chains, coop buying food clubs, independent supermarkets, mass merchandise distributors, department stores, drug wholesalers, doctors and U.S. military bases.

With an intense focus on customer satisfaction, the exclusive [RSHO]™ distributor offers advanced technological processes and logistics infrastructure including over 1,200 retails locations we can expand into.

HempMeds has also applied for multiple medical product registrations and we anticipation updating shareholders shortly on that. Though we keep our updates general in nature, we do that to keep the competitive nature. As we continue to solidify markets we will be more transparent regarding those details.

Dr. Titus continues, “It is interesting to note that the RSHO product line has expanded its brand footprint worldwide.  We are moving forward extremely well in South America and now with the U.S. territories and Caribbean Islands.  MJNA is looking forward to announcing additional international expansion activities in the near future.  All of this expansion signifies that consumers are becoming well educated on the benefits of hemp, are looking to add it to their daily diets and, as a result, are ushering its rapid return to the global market place.”

The most widely recognized CBD hemp oil brand in the U.S. and its territories, South America and the Caribbean is Real Scientific Hemp Oil™.  [RSHO]™ product lines offer consumers a wide range of options to include in their daily routines:

• [RSHO]™ Raw Oral Applicator: The Raw Label is just like juicing the plant.  In its most natural form, this is pressed directly from the mature stalk of the hemp plant and not decarboxylated.
• [RSHO]™ Blue Oral Applicator: For consumers looking to decarboxylated hemp oil for maximum wholesome activity, the Blue label contains the same raw materials and waxes as the Raw Label and is pressed from the mature stalk of the plant.
• [RSHO]™ Gold Oral Applicator: CO2 extraction from the mature stalk, the Gold Label removes most of the plant material, waxes and chlorophyll giving the oil its rich golden color and refined taste.
• [RSHO]™ Liquid: Containing the same top-quality hemp CBD oil as oral applicators, the Liquid contains medium chain triglycerides (MCT) oil and is composed of primarily caprylic and capric fatty acids from wholesome organic coconut oil.
• [RSHO]™ Tincture:  Available in choice of original, cinnamon and peppermint flavors, these tinctures can be consumed as-is or added to your favorite beverage.  These all-natural tinctures contain the world’s finest hemp CBD oil, vegetable glycerin, ethanol, sunflower lecithin, and water.
• [RSHO]™ Capsules:  With zero taste, these capsules are easy to take and dissolve in the digestive tract for optimal performance.
• [RSHO]™ Salve: For comprehensive body care, turn to this silky smooth CBD hemp oil topical balm to replenish your body’s critical resources diminished from life’s demands.
