MARINA DEL REY, CA -- AUGUST 13, 2009 -- Medical Marijuana Inc. (Other OTC: MJNA) announced today that it is undertaking the necessary measures to position its stock for quotation on the regulated, OTC Bulletin Board (OTC BB). This includes having retained a PCAOB-registered CPA firm to begin preparing, according to GAAP, to have the company's financial statements audited.
This move is being done as part of Medical Marijuana's effort to become a fully transparent corporation, one that will be attractive to a wider audience and more sophisticated investment interest. OTC BB quotation status for MJNA will also enable market markers to make their own markets in our stock --greatly enhancing MJNA shareholder liquidity.
The OTC Bulletin Board is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information for over-the-counter (OTC) securities. An OTC equity security generally is any equity that is not listed or traded on NASDAQ or a national securities exchange.
Although the OTCBB does not have any listing requirements per se, to be eligible for quotation on the OTCBB, issuers must remain current in their filings with the SEC. Market Makers are not permitted to begin quotation on the OTCBB of any security whose issuer has not met this filing requirement.
Medical Marijuana, Inc will be providing further updates to its shareholders as various milestones related to the process are met.
ABOUT MEDICAL MARIJUANA INC.
Medical Marijuana Inc. is the first public company to recognize the vast and unequaled opportunities that exist in the rapidly expanding medical marijuana industry. The scientific recognition of marijuana as a powerful medicine, and as an effective, non-narcotic pain reliever, has brought legalized marijuana use to the forefront of mainstream discussion thus opening the door for safe and lucrative investment opportunities.
Medical Marijuana Inc. has developed a suite of turnkey business and management solutions for the fledgling medical marijuana collective industry in California. The growing number of other states that have legalized the use of medical marijuana have yet to establish a system for the legalized commercial production and sale of the medicine. These regions are also strong potential targets for Medical Marijuana, Inc.'s products and services down the road. It is likely that other states will follow California's basic lead as the Golden State more specifically defines the regulations and protocol that are shaping the supply-side of the legal medical marijuana sector.
Tax Collection
The Stored Value Platform System will provide verifiable solutions to manage the difficult task of revenue and taxation collection. The "Point of Sale" (POS) system will recognize the dispensary's tax ID number, state and local tax rates and then provide "Automated Clearing House" (ACH) settlement of the taxes to the proper financial institutions. The customers of the dispensary are issued a plastic debit card or medical revenue card. The ease of access to certifiably secure transactions lessens the risk of loss at each level of the transaction.
Internal Management
All collectives/dispensaries in the U.S. are cash businesses. This presents a number of challenges. Dispensary owners risk employee theft and possible competition for sales with unsupervised employees. Our stored value card also eliminates the risks of carrying cash. For the investor looking to open more than one dispensary, this card allows him the ease of mind of knowing all transactions are accounted for in all of his locations.
Solutions
Medical Marijuana, Inc. is developing a suite of solutions to deliver an efficient and secure infrastructure for the Medical Marijuana Industry that will provide the tools to industry operators to effectively manage their businesses with the confidence that they are in full compliance.
