CALABASAS, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Executives from financial software provider BlackLine Systems will be speaking
at Financial Executives International`s (FEI) 28th Annual Current Financial
Reporting Issues (CFRI) Conference, scheduled for Monday and Tuesday, Nov. 16
and 17, 2009, at the New York Marriott Marquis Times Square. BlackLine also
plans to hold an East Coast Client Get-Together in New York to serve its large
and growing base of customers in the region.

With an emphasis on the new administration, today`s economic challenges and
regulation reform, CFRI will detail the latest accounting and reporting
developments from the FASB, SEC and IASB.

BlackLine CEO Therese Tucker and VP, Product Specialist Jeff Adler, CPA, MBA,
will lead a breakfast session entitled "Closing with Confidence" slated for
Monday, Nov. 16, at 7 a.m. ET. With stakes surrounding the financial close
higher today than ever, the session will focus on ways the CFO can improve the
financial close process by increasing visibility and control, while employing
the underappreciated control of account reconciliations in a strategic fashion.

The BlackLine East Coast Client Get-Together will be an all-day event on
Tuesday, Nov. 17, at BlackLine partner Ernst & Young`s offices in mid-town
Manhattan. Representatives from client companies including the Associated Press
and Four Seasons are expected to attend.

BlackLine client Teresa Platt, director of corporate accounting and compliance
for the Associated Press, will be speaking at both events - presenting case
studies on the benefits she`s experienced using BlackLine software.
