# Company Overview

For nearly two decades, Paragon Systems has served the federal
government as a leading provider of contract guard and logistics
services. Through its government security division, these services
include the provision of uniformed and armed security officers
responsible for access control, personnel protection, plant security,
theft prevention, surveillance, vehicular and foot patrol, crowd control
and the prevention of sabotage, terrorism and crime.

Today, Paragon employs over 750 highly trained security specialists at
more than 50 facilities throughout the United States. Our officers
support vital homeland security programs and protect some of the
nation's most sensitive infrastructure. Paragon's clients include the
Department of Homeland Security, NASA, the Department of the Treasury,
the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Drug Enforcement
Administration, the Federal Emergency Management Administration, the
Social Security Administration, and the United States Food and Drug
Administration. Paragon has provided service to many of these clients
for over a decade.

Headquartered 15 miles outside of Washington, D.C., in Chantilly,
Virginia, Paragon is uniquely positioned to respond to the requirements
of our federal clients. Through innovation, dedication to quality and
industry-leading practices, our company has built a documented record of
exceptional performance, and a reputation of providing highly qualified,
dependable security personnel at best value.

Originally formed in 1986, Paragon was acquired in 2004 by Tri-S
Security Corporation, a publicly traded company headquartered in
Alpharetta, Georgia. Since its acquisition, Paragon has retained a
talented senior management team comprised of veteran law enforcement,
security and business professionals. The team is led by Paragon's
President, Leslie Kaciban, who is the former Deputy Assistant Director
of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the first Director of the
FBI's International Law Enforcement Academy. Mr. Kaciban is supported by
Donald Meyerhoff, former Chief of Regional Affairs of the Federal
Protective Service, and Joseph Martin, former Commander of Security
Operations at the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Force
Station.

Together, the Paragon team offers expertise, experience and capacity in
government facility security management that is unmatched in the
industry.

# Ethos

At Paragon, we define ourselves by the partnerships that we have built
with our clients. We recognize the trust that our clients place in us*,*
and that the success of our business is dependent upon, and measured by,
the success of our government clients' missions. We are committed to
service excellence, integrity and value.

# Service Offerings

During its 20 years of providing services to the federal government,
Paragon has developed comprehensive experience and expertise in all
aspects of facility security management. With seven regional offices,
and time-tested, standardized recruitment, qualification and training
programs, Paragon has the capability to provide uniformly qualified and
trained security officers throughout the United States with little or no
lead time.

Paragon security officers guard missile launch sites, government
buildings occupied by thousands of federal employees, research
facilities that store chemical and biological agents, federal law
enforcement training facilities, harbors, government computer centers
and military installations. Among the comprehensive range of security
support services that we offer, Paragon security specialists and
officers perform armed and unarmed post/gate control, magnetometer
screening, roving foot and vehicle patrols, management of central
communications/security centers, CCTV and alarm monitoring, security
escort, dignitary protection, security training, threat assessment,
emergency preparedness evaluation, vehicle and visitor
screening/badging, armory management, and first responder emergency
services. Paragon is also certified to provide cleared personnel through
the Defense Security Service.

All of Paragon's armed security officers are required to undergo
extensive background screening, including employment verification,
reference checks, criminal records history, and educational and military
service history. Most employees additionally are required to
successfully pass extensive medical and physical fitness testing.
Applicants who pass these rigorous pre-qualifications must additionally
successfully complete one of several basic training programs taught by
certified Paragon trainers, including firearms training and
qualification and up to three weeks of classroom training. After initial
assignment, our officers receive additional refresher training annually,
including the most current methodology and recent developments in
facility security.

Paragon is a government approved vendor in all 50 states on the General
Services Administration's Multiple Awards Schedule, and is qualified to
provide guard services and professional security services through the
Federal Supply Schedule to all agencies of the federal government. It is
certified by the Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services and
several other state licensure boards.

# Project Management & Delivery Methodology

Paragon has obtained an enviable project management portfolio of
satisfied government clients by working closely with each of our clients
to ensure that our contractual deliverables are performed to standards
that exceed our clients' expectations. Unlike most other companies in
our industry, Paragon's senior leadership is made up of security
professionals who are personally engaged in the daily operational
management of the company, assuring the integrity of Paragon's services,
contractual compliance and responsiveness to our clients' requirements.

Paragon develops a written delivery methodology customized for each
project that we are awarded. This methodology includes all aspects of
project delivery and implementation, including recruitment, staffing
levels, clearance/qualification, assignment/scheduling, training,
communications (both intra-company and with government representatives),
deployment and assignment, equipment issuance/control, employee
relations, quality assurance and company performance evaluation. We
involve our clients in each phase of the project delivery to assure that
issues and risks are identified and addressed at the earliest possible
time, and that our contractual requirements are delivered timely, in
full compliance with the statement of work, and to the satisfaction of
the contracting officer and technical personnel. The resulting product
is a Project Deliverables Compliance and Evaluation Report ("PDCE"),
which is maintained daily by a Paragon Project Manager and provides our
clients real time data to evaluate Paragon's performance. The PDCE
report is provided to our clients monthly, during contractual
performance updates, or at the request of the Contracting Officer.

Quality assurance is of paramount importance to Paragon Systems and is
an integral part of our culture. To ensure the quality of our services,
Paragon develops a quality assurance plan and program specific to each
contract. These plans are managed by a dedicated team of quality
assurance specialists who have extensive experience in law enforcement
and contract security management. Each plan is customized to our client
and includes specialized checklists, internal audits of our records and
processes and an inspections schedule designed to evaluate the
performance of our officers. These evaluations are reported to a company
quality assurance committee, comprised of management and security
officers. This committee reviews the evaluations monthly to determine if
there are systemic deficiencies and takes appropriate corrective
actions, if necessary. A report is subsequently delivered to our client,
identifying any deficiencies found and the corrective measures proposed
and taken. The process results in a self-correcting program.

# Financial Management

Paragon has an established record of strong financial control and fiscal
responsibility. The company has retained an in-house team of seasoned
financial professionals with decades of experience in government
contracting and controllership. Paragon's dedication to responsible
fiscal management is reflected by our Dunn and Bradstreet Paydex Score,
which is one of highest ratings in our industry. We have also developed
several strong banking relationships that provide the working capital to
meet existing obligations as well as the capacity to perform projects
that we propose servicing. In addition, Paragon has the ability to draw
upon the backing of our parent corporation, Tri-S Security, to develop
business and pursue growth opportunities.
