Blackline GPS Corp. (TSX VENTURE:BLN) ("Blackline" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that the Corporation and Lightyear Capital Inc. ("Lightyear") have agreed to increase the size of the brokered private placement (the "Offering"), previously announced on December 14, 2010, from up to 26,666,666 units of the Corporation ("Units") at a price of $0.15 per Unit to up to 46,666,666 Units, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $7,000,000.

In the event the Over-Allotment Option is exercised in full, the Corporation will issue up to 53,333,333 Units for gross proceeds of up to $8,000,000.
The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be utilized for expanding the Corporation's industrial safety and commercial business.
Closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about February 4, 2011. The completion of the Offering is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
