TORONTO, Dec. 11 /CNW/ - iSign Media Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: ISD) ("Corporation"), is pleased to announce an update to its previously disclosed non-brokered private placement of $1,500,000 in units ("Units") of the Corporation (the "Offering"), with Tesar Inc. ("Tesar"), released December 2, 2009.

Each Unit will consist of one common share at $0.30 ("Unit Share") and one common share purchase warrant ("Warrant") of the Corporation. Each Warrant will be exercisable into one additional common share of the Corporation for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.45 per common share.

Tesar is an Ontario incorporated corporation controlled by Edward Florence. Mr. Florence is the Chief Executive Officer of Avenza Systems Inc, a company that develops, markets and supports computer software products and royalty-free map data for the mapping and geographic information systems industries.

Following completion of the proposed private placement, the Unit Shares that will be held by Tesar will constitute an equity ownership interest equal to 14.02% of the Corporation (the "Unit Share Interest"). Assuming full exercise of all of the Warrants, combined with the Unit Share Interest, Tesar will hold an equity ownership interest equal to 24.6% of the Corporation, which would cause Tesar to be considered a "control person".

The brokered placement through MGI Securities that was also previously announced on December 2, 2009, is expected to close on or before January 14, 2010.

The issue proceeds will be used to fund the completion of a back-end reporting system, acquisition of its IMS units and general working capital.
