Blackline Safety announces non-brokered private placement

Calgary, Alberta — Blackline Safety Corp. (TSX.V: BLN) ("Blackline" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that it intends to proceed with a non-brokered private placement of up to 3,428,572 units of the Corporation (the "Units") at a price of $1.75 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $6.0 million (the "Offering"). Each Unit will be comprised of one common share in the capital of the Corporation (a "Common Share") and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a "Warrant").

Each Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one Common Share at any time on or prior to February 12, 2018 at an exercise price of $2.00 per Common Share.

Blackline intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to support commercialization of its new suite of products and for general working capital purposes.

The Offering is expected to be completed on or about June 22, 2016, and is subject to all necessary regulatory and stock exchange approvals. The securities issued pursuant to the Offering will be subject to a hold period expiring four months and one day from the date of issuance. In connection with the Offering, the Corporation may pay a finder’s fee in cash and/or compensation warrants, subject to applicable regulatory and stock exchange approvals.

The Corporation expects that certain insiders of the Corporation, including DAK Investments Corp. ("DAK") will subscribe for Units in connection with the Offering. 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 will be 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 may be required to obtain minority approval and a formal valuation for the issuance of Units. Such an exemption is expected to be 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 expected time the transaction is agreed to, neither the fair market value of the subject matter of, nor the fair market value consideration for the transaction, is expected to exceed 25% of the Corporation's market capitalization.
