MagneGas Sources $5.0 Million Senior Debt Commitment, Repays $1.0MM Interim Financing

TAMPA, FL --(Marketwired - November 15, 2017) - MagneGas Corporation ("MagneGas" or the "Company") ( NASDAQ : MNGA ) , a leading clean technology company in the renewable resources and environmental solutions industries, announced that it has successfully sourced a $5.0 million senior debt commitment with Point Financial, Inc., a boutique venture capital firm based in Phoenix, AZ with a 30 year track record funding technology, life science, clean tech, ag tech, energy and other high growth industries ( www.pointfin.com ). The initial $0.5 million draw will be used to enhance working capital, while subsequent draws will be used to execute on near term acquisition opportunities. In conjunction with this financing, the $1.0 million debenture due November 16, 2017 and the convertible debenture due in June 2021 were fully repaid.

"This is a major milestone for MagneGas," commented Ermanno Santilli, CEO of MagneGas. "We were very appreciative of the interim financing provided in April of this year, and we are excited to begin a long term, scalable partnership with Point Financial. Our acquisition targets are EBITDA generating, asset rich companies that are readily financed using a conservative amount of debt leverage. We see this as a key next step in our path to successfully executing several near term acquisition opportunities that should drive our rapid revenue growth in 2018 and beyond."

"We are very pleased to take this next step in our financial progress and execution of our growth plans," commented Scott Mahoney, CFO of MagneGas. "Our top financial objectives in 2017 were to identify scalable debt and equity relationships in order to execute on near term acquisition opportunities. All of our target companies are EBITDA positive and asset rich, and are well suited to a sensible leverage strategy upon acquisition. Now that we have both scalable equity and debt partners in place, we look forward to moving forward with our acquisition plans in the coming months."
