CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Feb. 12, 2014) -

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 its previously announced non-brokered private placement offering, issuing an aggregate of 3,043,648 units (the "Units") at a price of $1.15 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $3,500,195 (the "Offering"). Blackline experienced greater demand than anticipated for the Offering and as a result it was oversubscribed by 443,648 Units resulting in a financing increase of nearly $510,200 compared to the amounts previously announced.

Blackline will use the proceeds of the Offering to support several activities including further expansion of sales activities into the United States and Europe, increasing working capital to support commercialization and manufacturing of the company's upcoming Loner 900 System, and to further accelerate the Corporation's product development program.

As insiders of the Corporation purchased an aggregate of 1,414,348 Units in connection with the Offering, such purchases were considered "related party transactions" 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 such insiders. Such an exemption was available for the issuance of Units to the insiders 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, as it related to insiders, exceeded 25% of the Corporation's market capitalization.

Each Unit 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 48 months following the closing of the Offering at an exercise price of $1.40 per Common Share.

In connection with the Offering, Blackline paid an aggregate of $210,011.70 and issued an aggregate of 304,364 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 24 months following the closing of the Offering at an exercise price of $1.15 per Unit. The Warrants issuable on exercise of the Compensation Warrants will have the same terms and conditions as the Warrants described above.

Blackline is pleased to announce in connection with the Offering's close that DAK Investments Corp., the lead investor in the Offering, has been provided the right to nominate a mutually agreeable individual to serve on the board of directors of the Corporation, subject to customary conditions and approvals.

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