IRVINE, Calif., June 30 /PRNewswire/ -- James Whitey, jointly-elected spokesperson for Action Sports International (OTC Bulletin Board: ACTB - news) and Manhattan Financing Corp., reported today, that ''I am very excited to report that the Manhattan branch of the Bank of India is in the process of approving a ten million dollar line of credit to Action Sports and hope this will be finalized within the next five banking days. This financing will allow the company to expand its present manufacturing capabilities, easily upon demand, considering its new alliance with Trans National Sports, and the amount of sales volume that should arise out of that agreement. The company also plans to use this financing to give it more leverage in continuing with its aggressive acquisition campaign.'' ''I would also like to mention,'' Mr. Whitey continued, ''that the strength of Manhattan Financing was paramount in arranging for this line of credit.'' Manhattan Financing, a privately held company in Manhattan, New York, has assets estimated at 30-50 million dollars, depending upon accounting practices, and has extensive real estate holdings throughout the world. The two companies are currently finalizing merger negotiations. Mr. Whitey further declared that he will continue reporting the progress of the merger to the shareholders of the company.
