Titan Secures Additional Financing
PHOENIX, Feb. 28 Titan Motorcycle Co. of America
(OTC Bulletin Board: TMOTQ) announced today the securing of court approval for
an additional $250,000 new debtor-in-possession financing, bringing the total
cash infusion since the Company's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing to $500,000.
"The additional cash will allow Titan to continue ramping up production to
meet the rising seasonal demands," said Frank Keery, CEO. He said that he
expects in the next few weeks to further expand the Company's financial
strength with an additional seven-figure debtor in possession loan that, once
approved by the Court, will enable the company to operate through a successful
reorganization in 2001.
