Blackline Closes $4.0 Million Private Placement

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - July 31, 2012) -

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES.

Blackline GPS Corp (TSX VENTURE:BLN) ("Blackline" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that it has completed a non-brokered private placement offering of 3,200,000 units of the Corporation (the "Units") at a price of $1.25 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $4,000,000 (the "Offering"). Proceeds of the Offering will be utilized to expand the Corporation's product development and sales plans as well as general working capital.

A core element of Blackline's business plan has been to develop a full suite of products for the Lone Worker Safety market thus enabling the Corporation to provide a single source Lone Worker Safety solution to a broad range of industries. The increased capital provided by the Offering will allow Blackline to achieve the development of the comprehensive product suite far quicker thus enabling Blackline to secure its leadership position in the Lone Worker Safety market.

The Corporation is also pleased to announce that DAK Investments Corp., ("DAK") the lead investor in the private placement, will be assisting Blackline in creating an advisory panel ("the Panel") for the Corporation whose participants will assist Blackline in developing new opportunities and accelerating its growth. The Panel is anticipated to consist of leading business people in a variety of industries.

Each Unit of the Offering is comprised of one common share of the Corporation (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to acquire one Common Share for a period of thirty six months following the closing of the Offering at an exercise price of $1.50 per Common Share.

In connection with the Offering, Blackline has paid an aggregate of $110,000 of cash and issued an aggregate of 160,000 compensation warrants ("Compensation Warrants") to arm's length finders for services rendered in connection with the Offering. Each Compensation Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one Unit at any time prior to the date that is twenty-four months following the closing of the Offering at an exercise price of $1.25 per Unit. The Warrants issuable on exercise of the Compensation Warrants will have the same terms and conditions as the Warrants described above.

All securities issued in connection with the Offering are subject to a four month plus one day hold period.

In connection with the Offering, DAK acquired an aggregate of 1,600,000 Units. In accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, as the acquisition of 1,600,000 Units by DAK would result in the creation of a new "control person" for the purposes of the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, the Corporation received the approval of a majority of "disinterested" shareholders of the Corporation (being all shareholders of the Corporation, other than DAK) by way of written shareholder consent. As DAK is currently an "insider" of the Corporation by virtue of its current ownership of Common Shares, the additional acquisition of securities by DAK in connection with the Offering is considered a "related party transaction" pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). Pursuant to MI 61-101, absent an available exemption, the Corporation would be required to obtain minority approval and a formal valuation for the issuance of Units to DAK. Such an exemption is available for the issuance of Units to DAK pursuant to Sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, because at the time the transaction was agreed to, neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value consideration for the transaction, exceeded 25% of the Corporation's market capitalization.

Completion of the Offering is subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
