    HOLLYWOOD, Calif., March 22, 2013     /    PRNewswire via COMTEX  /         -- Medbox, Inc. (OTC
Markets: MDBX) (  www.medboxinc.com    ), a leader in providing industry specific
consulting services and patented systems to the medical and retail industries
worldwide, was featured in a Fortune Magazine cover story entitled "Marijuana
Inc. - Meet the Entrepreneurs and Investors Firing Up a New Industry."

The article followed a group of businessmen, investors and wealthy individuals
who believe that the prohibition era for marijuana in America is coming to an
end and that a legitimate cannabis industry is now taking shape.

"Some investors are scions of old money, like Joby Pritzker, of the Hyatt Hotel
chain dynasty, and Richard Wolfe, whose family bought the Columbus Dispatch in
1905," according to Fortune. "Others are self-made. Adam Wiggins, for instance,
cofounded Heroku, a cloud-platform that was purchased by Salesforce.com for $250
million."

Medbox and its CEO, Dr. Bruce Bedrick, were also featured in the article. The
writer marveled at the company's share price and market capitalization, which
according to Fortune is in the $620 million range.

"Business is driving the change," according to Troy Dayton of the ArcView Group.
"Business is the most powerful platform for political change that's ever
existed," he says. "When there is money for government, money for investors,
money for entrepreneurs, and benefits to communities, that's a powerful
incentive for change."

In other news, Medbox announced that to accommodate more people, their second
free public educational and informational seminar on the medical marijuana
industry in San Diego has been rescheduled to April 6, 2013.

Landlords, patients, potential dispensary operators, law enforcement, and city
officials are welcome to attend. Complete details regarding that event are
listed below:
