Digital Ally
DGLY, which develops, manufactures and markets advanced
video surveillance products for law enforcement, homeland security
and commercial applications, today announced that it has been awarded
a "sole-source" contract with the State of West Virginia to supply
in-car video systems and related equipment to the state's highway
patrol department.
The initial one-year contract, which was effective December 15, 2013
and includes a provision for two one-year renewals, authorizes the
purchase of Digital Ally's in-car video systems, particularly the
DVM-750, for installation in state trooper vehicles. The West
Virginia State Police, which includes over 600 sworn officers,
operates and maintains an active fleet of over 500 cruisers
throughout the state. The Company expects to receive a significant
purchase order from West Virginia in the first quarter of 2014 for
the initial deployment of DVM-750 units and anticipates that the
state will attempt to deploy in-car video systems in its entire fleet
of vehicles during 2014 and 2015.
"This represents the 26th state contract our Company has received for
in-car video systems and/or LIDAR speed enforcement products and the
5th 'sole-source' contract involving in-car video systems," stated
Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Ally, Inc. "The
contract allows all other agencies, spending units and political
subdivisions within the State of West Virginia, including state,
county and municipal law enforcement agencies, to buy Digital Ally's
in-car video systems at the same prices and on the same terms as
those made available to the state police. In our experience with
similar state contracts, many other state, county and local agencies
take advantage of this provision to acquire our in-car video systems,
since the State Police have already tested and selected our systems
over competitive offerings."
"We believe that our success in obtaining and renewing state
contracts indicates that our Company's revenue will continue to
benefit from U.S. police market demand for in-car video over the
near, intermediate and long term. We are currently pursuing at least
two additional state contracts and the extension or renewal of
several others," concluded Ross.

meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E
of the Securities Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements are
based largely on the expectations or forecasts of future events, can
be affected by inaccurate assumptions, and are subject to various
business risks and known and unknown uncertainties, a number of which
are beyond the control of management. Therefore, actual results could

to improve its revenues and operating results in 2013; the Company's
ability to deliver its newer product offerings as scheduled and have
them perform as anticipated; its ability to obtain additional or
significant orders from law enforcement agencies in the State of West
Virginia during the term of the new contract, including whether the
State will deploy the Company's in-car video systems in all of its
fleet in 2014 and 2015; whether the Company can obtain its components
and products on a timely basis; its ability to maintain or expand its
share of the markets in which it competes, including those outside
the law enforcement industry; competition from larger, more
established companies with far greater economic and human resources;
its ability to attract and retain customers and quality employees;
the effect of changing economic conditions; and changes in government
regulations, tax rates and similar matters. These cautionary
statements should not be construed as exhaustive or as any admission
as to the adequacy of the Company's disclosures. The Company cannot

statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise. Additional information respecting factors that could
materially affect the Company and its operations are contained in its
