MMRGlobal Announces Significant Increases in Monthly Signups of
Personal Health Record Accounts
LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - May 12, 2014) - MMRGlobal, Inc.
(OTCQB: MMRF) ("MMR" or the "Company") today announced that after
the launch of the new home page for its patented MyMedicalRecords
PHR in March, which can be seen at www.mymedicalrecords.com,
signups for the Company's Personal Health Record accounts doubled
in the first thirty days, with the trend continuing at a run rate
of more than three hundred percent based on the first 10 days in
May, without advertising. Given the early success, MMR will launch
a new online media campaign starting this week based on keyword
advertising, banners, affiliate programs and other forms of
interactive online and smartphone advertising. The Company also
announced that starting this summer, MMR will be running its new
television commercial featuring Fran Drescher, TV's "The Nanny," in
Associated Television International's programming
(www.associatedtelevision.com), which is syndicated in more than
200 television markets, as part of a cause-related advertising
campaign to sell Personal Health Records direct to consumers and
benefit Cancer Schmancer. All of the Company's commercial
advertising campaigns including the latest one featuring Ms.
Drescher can be seen at www.mmrontv.com.
The Company also plans on announcing its first quarter 2014
results on May 15th in which revenue is projected to be the highest
specifically coming from its core business of sales and licensing
Personal Health Records products and services in the Company's
history. MMR projects that trend will continue as it also
launches a new national retail distribution program to more than 30
million consumers throughout the summer, starting this quarter.
MMRGlobal is a leading provider of Personal Health Records,
MyEsafeDepositBox storage solutions and MMRPro document management
and imaging systems for healthcare professionals. The use of Personal Health
Records is a key part of modernizing America's healthcare system
and the government is spending hundreds of millions of dollars in
education designed to empower patients to take greater control of
their health, using tools such as a PHR.

operating subsidiary, MyMedicalRecords, Inc., provides secure and
easy-to-use online Personal Health Records ("PHRs") and electronic

paper-based medical records and sharing them with patients through
an integrated patient portal. Through its merger with Favrille,
