Blackline Announces Unit Private Placement

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwire - July 27, 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") announces it intends to proceed with a non-brokered private placement offering of up to 3,200,000 units of the Corporation (the "Units") at a price of $1.25 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $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.

Each Unit of the Offering will be comprised of one common share of the Corporation (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle 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. A finders' fee commensurate with TSX.V policies may be paid where applicable.

The Corporation expects that DAK Investments Corp. ("DAK") who currently owns 1,888,200 Common Shares, will subscribe for 1,600,000 Units in connection with the Offering, and as such, upon completion of the Offering (assuming it is fully subscribed), DAK would own or control (directly or indirectly) an aggregate of 3,488,200 Common Shares, representing 19.85% of the outstanding then Common Shares, on a non-diluted basis (or 23.93% of the Common Shares on a fully diluted basis). As such, in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, the proposed acquisition of securities by DAK will create a new "control person" and require the consent of at least 50% of "disinterested" shareholders of the Corporation (being all shareholders of the Corporation, other than DAK). The Corporation intends to seek the requisite consent by way of written consent resolution and expects to commence such process immediately. Furthermore, DAK has agreed to assist Blackline in creating an advisory panel for the Corporation (the "Advisory Panel"), whose members are intended help facilitate new business opportunities on behalf of the Corporation, and in consideration for such services, Blackline may, in the future, grant DAK options to purchase up to 250,000 Common Shares.

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 would 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.

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