Pursuant to the Designation

increase (the Designee) and slate the Designee in a director class in accordance with applicable law; (iii) give Select Contrarian the right to appoint the Designee to serve on each of the committees of our board of directors; and
(iv) use our reasonable efforts to cause our board of directors to continue to include the Designee thereon until the Designation Agreement terminates. The Designation Agreement will terminate at such time as: (a) we have satisfied our
obligations to Select Contrarian under the 14% Convertible Promissory Note due November 13, 2010, issued to it by us upon completion of the exchange offer described in our tender offer statement on Schedule TO, initially filed with the SEC on

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

We have a separately designated standing audit committee of the board of directors established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The members of the audit committee are Messrs. Logsdon, Toole, Bennett and Verbrugge.

Our board of directors has determined that the audit committees chairperson, Dr. Verbrugge, is an audit committee financial expert, as such term is defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K.
Dr. Verbrugge meets the independence requirements of Rule 4200(a)(15) of the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (the Nasdaq).

Pursuant to the regulations of the SEC, a person who is determined to be an audit committee financial expert will not be deemed an expert for any purpose, including, without limitation, for purposes of Section 11
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to Item 401 of Regulation S-K. Furthermore, the designation or identification of a person as an audit
committee financial expert pursuant to Item 401 of Regulation S-K does not impose on such person any duties, obligations or liability that are greater than the duties, obligations and liability imposed on such person as a member of the audit
committee or the board of directors in the absence of such designation or identification. Moreover, the designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert pursuant to Item 401 of Regulation S-K does not affect the
duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the audit committee or board of directors.

Code of Ethics

The board of directors has adopted a Code of Ethics and Conduct that applies to all of our employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer. We shall provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of our Code of Ethics and Conduct. Such requests should be directed to the Secretary of Tri-S Security Corporation at 11675 Great Oaks Way, Suite 120, Alpharetta,
Georgia 30022.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and all persons (Reporting Persons) who beneficially own
more than 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of the Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company. Reporting Persons are also required to
furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To our knowledge, based solely upon a review of the copies of such forms furnished to us for the year ended December 31, 2008, and the information provided to us by
Reporting Persons of the Company, no Reporting Person failed to file the forms required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act on a timely basis except that Mr. Farrell did not file a Form 4 due on April 14, 2008 until April 17,
2008.

Employment Agreement and Post-Termination Payments

Ronald G. Farrell. Pursuant to Mr. Farrells employment agreement with the Company, Mr. Farrell has agreed to serve as our
Chief Executive Officer and President until June 30, 2010. The employment agreement provides for: (i) payment of a specified base salary; (ii) payment of an annual incentive bonus equal to 5% of the Companys EBITDA, as defined,
for such year, provided that such bonus may not exceed 100% of Mr. Farrells base salary for such year; (iii) prohibitions against Mr. Farrells disclosure of confidential information, solicitation of our employees and
participation in a business competitive with our business during his employment and for a period of one year following the termination of his employment; (iv) upon termination of Mr. Farrells employment by us without
cause or by Mr. Farrell for good reason, a lump sum payment to Mr. Farrell equal to the base salary otherwise payable to Mr. Farrell for the remainder of the term of the employment agreement and continuation of all other
employee benefits and payments otherwise payable to Mr. Farrell for the remainder of such term, provided, however, that all COBRA payments payable by Mr. Farrell shall be paid by the Company for at least 18 months after such termination;
and (v) upon a change of control of the Company, a lump sum payment to Mr. Farrell equal to the value of all compensation and benefits which Mr. Farrell would have received had the employment agreement terminated two years
after such change of control. Pursuant to Mr. Farrells employment agreement, we also provide certain other benefits and expense reimbursements to Mr. Farrell which are consistent with his position as our Chief Executive Officer.
Mr. Farrell is also entitled to participate in any employee benefit plan, stock option plan and other fringe benefit plan at the discretion of our board of directors.

In connection with the Exchange Offer, on December 31, 2008, we amended Mr. Farrells employment agreement as of December 31, 2008,
as follows: (i) to reduce his annual salary by (a) 25% during the period from January 1, 2009 through June 30, 2009 and (b) 50% during the period from July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010; and (ii) to grant to
Mr. Farrell (a) 100,000 shares of Common Stock on December 31, 2008 and (b) 81,406 shares of Common Stock on January 1, 2009 (together, the Stock Grants). Notwithstanding this amendment, the reduction in
Mr. Farrells annual salary will not affect the calculation of bonus, severance or other amounts which Mr. Farrell is entitled to receive, and which are calculated with reference to Mr. Farrells base salary,
under his employment agreement and such bonus, severance and other amounts will be calculated and made as if the reduction in Mr. Farrells annual salary had not occurred.

The Stock Grants have been made pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of the Incentive Plan. The Stock Grants vest, collectively, in a manner
such that an aggregate of 10,000 shares vests on the last day of each month during the period from January 1, 2009 through May 31, 2010, and the remaining unvested shares underlying the Stock Grants vests on June 30, 2010.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company experiences a change in control (as defined in the Incentive Plan), or if Mr. Farrell resigns, is terminated from his position, ceases to be our Chief Executive Officer or otherwise
ceases to be employed by the Company, then all shares underlying the Stock Grants which have not vested by the end of the month in which such change in control occurs, or at the time of such resignation, termination or cessation, will be forfeited.

For purposes of Mr. Farrells employment agreement: (i) the term cause means gross negligence, gross
malfeasance or willful disregard for duty in the performance of Mr. Farrells employment agreement; provided, however, that such disregard shall not be considered willful, unless done, or omitted to be done, by him not in good faith and
without reasonable belief that this action or omission was in the best interest of the Company; and (ii) the phrase change of control refers to the sale of the Company, removal of Mr. Farrell as Chairman of our board of
directors, or one person or group gaining a majority 51% interest in the Company or a majority of the members of our board of directors.

(b) Mr. Chaters 2008 performance bonus shall not be less than $90,000. The employment agreement also provides that, if Mr. Chaters employment is terminated by us without cause or by him for good reason, then
Mr. Chater shall be entitled to receive a single lump sum in an amount equal to his then-current salary and performance bonus and shall be entitled to participate in our employee benefit, retirement and compensation plans during the
twelve-month period following the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Mr. Chaters employment is terminated by us without cause during the 24-month period following a change of control of the Company, then
Mr. Chater will be entitled to receive a lump sum payment of his then-current performance bonus and twice his then-current base salary and shall be entitled to participate in our employee benefit, retirement and compensation plans during the
24-month period following the date of such termination.

For purposes of Mr. Chaters employment agreement, cause for
termination hereof shall exist if: (i) Mr. Chater is convicted of, or pleads guilty or nolo contendere to, any act of fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement, or any felony; (ii) in the reasonable determination of our board of
directors, Mr. Chater has engaged in conduct or activity materially damaging to the business of the Company; or (iii) Mr. Chater has failed, without reasonable cause, to devote his full business time and best efforts to the business
of the Company and, after written notice from the Company of such failure, Mr. Chater at any time thereafter again so fails.

Also for
purposes of Mr. Chaters employment agreement, a change in control shall have occurred if: (i) a majority of the directors of the Company shall be persons other than persons (a) for whose election proxies shall have
been solicited by our Board of Directors, or (b) who are then serving as directors appointed by our board of directors to fill vacancies on our board of directors caused by death or resignation (but not by removal) or to fill newly-created
directorships; (ii) a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company shall have been acquired or beneficially owned by any person or group, which group does not include Mr. Chater; or (iii) there shall have occurred, subject
to certain exceptions, (1) a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than certain specified mergers or consolidations), (2) a statutory exchange of shares of one or more classes or series of
outstanding voting stock of the Company for cash, securities or other property, (3) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (in one transaction or a series of transactions), or (4) the
liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

|-------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Related Party Transactions

Director Designation Agreement

Pursuant to the Designation Agreement between us and Select Contrarian, a holder of a 14% Convertible Promissory Note due 2010 issued by the Company and a
beneficial owner of greater than 5% of the Common Stock, we agreed to: (i) increase the size of our board of directors from four (4) to five (5) members; (ii) elect one (1) person designated by Select Contrarian to fill the
vacancy created by such increase and slate the Designee in a director class in accordance with applicable law; (iii) give Select Contrarian the right to appoint the Designee to serve on each of the committees of our board of directors;
(iv) use our reasonable efforts to cause our board of directors to continue to include the Designee thereon until the Designation Agreement terminates; and (v) give Select Contrarian the right to appoint one (1) person to attend and
participate in all meetings of our board of directors in a non-voting, observer capacity (the Observer). The Designee and the Observer are each entitled to receive the same compensation package as our directors receive for their service
on our board of directors. The Designation Agreement will terminate at such time as (A) we have satisfied our obligations to Select Contrarian under the 14% Convertible Promissory Note due 2010 we issued to it upon closing of the Exchange Offer
or (B) Select Contrarian no longer holds such note, whichever is earlier. In accordance with the Designation Agreement, Select Contrarian designated Mr. Bennett to serve as the Designee on our board of directors and its committees and
designated Robert Mills, our former Chief Financial Officer, to serve as the Observer.

Accordingly, on December 19, 2008, our board
of directors: (i) increased the size of our board of directors from four (4) to five (5) members effective January 2, 2009, with the vacancy on the our board of directors created by such increase occurring in the Class 1 Director
class; and (ii) elected Mr. Bennett to fill such vacancy and serve as a Class I Director, effective January 2, 2009. In connection with his election as a Class I Director effective January 2, 2009, Mr. Bennett submitted to
us a written notice pursuant to which Mr. Bennett agrees to resign, and does in fact resign, from our board of directors effective as of the termination of the Designation Agreement.

Mr. Bennett holds, through Southwick Capital, LLC, a 14% Convertible Promissory Note due 2010 issued
by us in aggregate principal amount of $100,000 and a warrant to purchase 10,417 shares of Common Stock, each of which was issued pursuant to the Exchange Offer in November 2008.

Employment Agreements

A description of the employment agreements between each of the Named
Executive Officers and the Company is set forth under Item 11, Executive CompensationEmployment Agreements and Post-Termination Payments, of this Annual Report.

Indemnification Agreements

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its
directors and its Chief Executive Officer pursuant to which the Company will indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law if they are involved or become involved or are threatened to be involved in any investigation, action,
claim suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of that fact that they were or are serving as an officer or director of the Company or were or are serving at the Companys request as an agent of any
other entity.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

It is an unwritten policy and practice of our board of directors, which is not otherwise evidenced, that all transactions which would be required to be
reported pursuant to Item 13 of Form 10-K must be reviewed and approved by the audit committee before we enter into such transaction.

Director
Independence

Our board of directors has determined that four of the five members of our board of directors  Messrs. Bennett,
Logsdon and Toole and Dr. Verbrugge  are independent as defined for purposes of the rules of the SEC and the listing standards of the Nasdaq. For a director to be considered independent, our board of directors must determine
that the director does not have a relationship with the Company that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making this determination, our board of directors considers all
relevant facts and circumstances, including any transaction or relationship between the director and the Company or its subsidiaries.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

The audit committee is required to pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the Companys independent registered
public accounting firm. The audit committee has adopted a policy which provides for general pre-approval of specified Audit, Audit-Related, Tax and Other Services that do not exceed enumerated dollar amounts. The policy also provides that, unless a
type of service to be provided by the independent auditors has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the audit committee.



11



---

The audit committee has determined the Audit, Audit-Related, Tax and Other Services that are the basis
for general pre-approval by the audit committee. The enumerated dollar amounts at which such general pre-approval will apply are currently under consideration by the audit committee. Until the audit committee has determined such enumerated dollar
amounts, all services performed by the Companys independent registered public accounting firm will require the specific pre-approval of the audit committee.
