Company Raises $500,000 in Private Placement

DENVER, CO. – (PR NEWSWIRE) – February 1, 2011 – BAZI International, Inc. (OTCBB: BAZI) announced today that investors holding approximately $2.3 million of the Company’s Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes elected to convert their Notes into 15.8 million of the Company’s common stock, resulting in the elimination of substantially all of the Company’s indebtedness.  In addition, the Company privately placed 3.3 million shares of its common stock, resulting in net proceeds of $500,000.  The additional capital, which is in addition to $179,000 in net proceeds received on January 13 in connection with a separate private placement, provides the Company with financing necessary to address the Company’s short-term working capital needs as it prepares for a national advertising and marketing launch of BAZI®, its flagship healthy energy shot.  

Kevin Sherman, CEO of BAZI, stated, “We’re very excited about the support and confidence that our debt holders have demonstrated in the Company by their election to become stockholders as a result of the conversion of their notes.  Together with the proceeds from recent financings, we’re now much better positioned as a company to capitalize on the interest shown in BAZI® by national distributors, and execute our business and marketing plan to substantially grow sales.”
