LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6

LAS VEGAS /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cord Blood America, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CBAI), the umbilical cord blood stem cell preservation company (http://www.cordblood-america.com ) focused on bringing the life saving potential of stem cells, a biological insurance policy, to families nationwide and internationally, today said that it has retired a $1.35 million note which had been provided by JMJ Financial in May of 2009.

"We finished 2009 as we proceeded throughout the year, succeeding in a major effort to reduce debt and strengthen our balance sheet," said Matthew Schissler, CEO and co-founder, Cord Blood America. "The debt reduced, over $10.5 million, is the overwhelming majority we entered the year with and effectively all the debt available for retirement in 2009. We believe the minimal long term obligations left are immaterial in terms of standing in our way of future growth. This sets the table for 2010 to allow us to execute our three pillars of success: organic growth, acquisitions and diversification of our revenue stream."
