SAN DIEGO, Aug. 14, 2012 \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a0Medical Marijuana, Inc.<\/strong>\u00a0(OTC: MJNA) a leading hemp industry innovator, has announced that the Company has signed closing documentation for a $2 million USD line of credit with Lotus Capital, a Chicago based private equity firm. The line of credit will be used as a reserve fund for product expansion of the Dixie X line of Cannabidoil (CBD) based products as well as to support the national marketing campaign of the Dixie X and CanChew gum product launch, scheduled for early September.\u00a0 The LOC will also be available to support future expansion through Company acquisitions.<\/p>\n

This new revolving line of credit will be secured against shares of the Company’s Capital Stock. MJNA is in the process of providing a new S-1 registration statement for the issuance of the shares. Additional terms of the LOC allow MJNA to cancel the line at any time, releasing the security interest in the shares back to the Company. This transaction is non-dilutive to the shareholders providing that the Company repays any drawdown against the LOC per the terms of the agreement.<\/p>\n

Revolving Line of Credit Uses<\/strong><\/p>\n

Currently, Company revenue sources are sufficient to meet operational cash-flow requirements. However, the Company anticipates increased costs to properly support the national launch of its hemp-based CBD Dixie-X and CanChew products. Additionally, we have numerous product and market expansion opportunities which require capital to execute. For these reasons, the Company has been exploring several financing options.<\/p>\n
