For Immediate Release

NORTHCORE RAISES $678,000 THROUGH PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Toronto, ON - July 11, 2008 - Northcore Technologies Inc. (TSX: NTI; OTCBB:NTLNF), a global provider of asset lifecycle solutions, confirmed today that it has closed a private placement securing gross proceeds of $678,000 through the issuance of convertible debentures.

“The funds will be used for general working capital purposes and to sustain Northcore’s operations so we can take advantage of the opportunities before us.” said Duncan Copeland, CEO of Northcore Technologies.

Under the terms of the private placement, investors will be able to convert the Series M debentures at any time during the five-year term into units priced at $0.05.  Each unit consists of one common share and one common share purchase warrant.  Each warrant may be converted into a common share at the exercise price of $0.10 at any time prior to the earlier of the maturity date of the debentures or upon a 20-day notice issued by the Company confirming that the closing price of its shares on the TSX was $0.20 or above for 10 consecutive trading days.

The Series M debentures will mature on July 11, 2013.  The debenture will bear interest at an annual rate of 10 percent of the principal amount of the debentures outstanding from time to time, payable in cash on the earlier of the conversion of the debenture or the maturity date.

Northcore’s board of directors unanimously passed a resolution approving the terms.  Northcore has also received conditional approval from the TSX for the private placement.

As a result of the Series M private placement, Northcore will issue up to 27,120,000 common shares.

Dundee Securities Corporation received a brokerage commission of four percent on a portion of the private placement.
