True Drinks Announces Satisfaction of All Outstanding Notes Payable


Irvine, CA March 31, 2015 True Drinks, Inc. (OTCQB: TRUU), makers of the zero-sugar, vitamin-enhanced AquaBall Naturally Flavored Water, today announces a $2.7 million investment from Toba Capital Management. This cash infusion is in addition to the $4.0 million commitment from Toba Capital in February 2015. The new funds will be used to pay down existing noteholders. In addition, all remaining noteholders, representing a total of just over $1.2 million in principal and interest, have converted their notes into the Companys Series C financing.

Dan Kerker, CFO of True Drinks, commented, This investment from Toba Capital affirms their commitment to the long-term growth of True Drinks. Along with the conversion of our remaining debt, it has allowed us to remove just under $4.0 of debt from our balance sheet which removes a substantial interest burden from the Company, allowing additional funds to be used towards the development of AquaBallTM Naturally Flavored Water.

Lance Leonard, CEO of True Drinks, added, Eliminating all outstanding debt and attracting long-term strategic investors is a critical element in the development of the Company. Toba Capital understands and supports the vision of True Drinks and is committed to bringing resources to fuel the Companys growth.
