COMPANY ANTICIPATES ORDERS FROM MIDDLE EAST IN NEAR FUTURE

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., July 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Digital Ally, Inc. (Nasdaq: DGLY), which develops, manufactures and markets advanced video surveillance products for law enforcement, homeland security and commercial security applications, today announced that it has received initial orders from law enforcement agencies in Turkey and China.

Through its sales representative in Turkey, Mesan Inc., Digital Ally has been awarded an initial contract for 50 DVM-500 Plus In-Car Rearview Mirror Systems from the Turkish Gendarmerie, a branch of the Ministry of Interior that is responsible for the maintenance of public order in areas that fall outside the jurisdiction of police forces. The Gendarmerie, an armed security and law enforcement agency that is military in nature, is also responsible for internal security and general border control. The DVM-500 Plus systems will be placed into service in the Istanbul district.

Digital Ally also announced that Beijing-based Timeway International Co., Ltd., which specializes in the importation of electronics and medical devices into China, has recently introduced certain of the Company's products into the Chinese market and has developed relationships with Chinese security and law enforcement agencies at the National and Provincial levels. An initial order for 20 DVF-500 Digital Video Flashlight Systems has been received from the Beijing Municipal Department of Public Security. The DVF-500 is a self-contained video and audio recorder that is built into a standard-size law enforcement flashlight to enhance evidence collection capability.

"Our expanding international presence and positive feedback from satisfied customers continue to broaden the Company's customer base in a growing number of countries," commented Stanton E. Ross, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Ally, Inc. "We are very pleased to announce these initial orders from Turkey and China. Once the DVM and DVF systems have been deployed and their effectiveness is demonstrated in the field, we expect to receive additional orders from law enforcement agencies in both of these countries."

"In addition, our International Sales Manager recently returned from a two-week trip to the Middle East, where he had very productive meetings with government officials in four countries," continued Ross. "The introduction of our DVM systems to the Ministers of Transportation and various Generals in each country was well received, and we expect initial orders to be forthcoming in the near future. As we announced in April 2009, we received an initial DVM-750 order from a dealer in Saudi Arabia, through our distributor in that country, in conjunction with a 'pilot' project with one of the region's law enforcement agencies, and a follow-up order for additional systems could be forthcoming if the pilot project is successful, as anticipated."
