TUESDAY , DECEMBER 03, 2002 08:06 AM

MIAMI, Dec 3, 2002 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- American Ammunition, Inc. (OTCBB:AAMI) announced today it reduced its bank indebtedness an additional $100,000.00. This latest payment represents an additional 15% reduction in the bank line of credit and 43% total bank debt reduction in calendar year 2002.

In addition to the debt reduction, AAMI recently signed two (2) separate sales agency agreements in November 2002 with Laylock & Associates of Edmond, Oklahoma, and Donaldson & Associates of Pinley Park, Illinois. These sales agencies complement and support additional increases in AAMI's fourth consecutive quarter of sales and revenue growth. AAMI anticipates increased sales and revenue growth in its fourth quarter ending December 31.

Andres Fernandez, President and CEO of AAMI stated: "We are excited at our ability to reduce outstanding debt and to further expand our business. We are in a unique position that we can sell cheaper because we don't have the high labor costs and some of the other high overhead of our competitors. We are pleased with our prospects for 2003."

AAMI was the subject of a recent news article (12/1/02) in the Miami Herald, Miami, Florida. The article can be found at the Miami Herald website.
