TRI-S SECURITY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2008

1. Organization

Tri-S Security Corporation, a Georgia corporation (Tri-S, the Company or we), was incorporated in
October 2001 under the name Diversified Security Corporation. We changed our name to Tri-S Security Corporation on August 16, 2004. We provide contract guard services to (i) various Federal government agencies
through our subsidiary, Paragon Systems, Inc., an Alabama corporation with its principal office located in Washington, DC (Paragon Systems); and (ii) commercial and state and local government customers through our subsidiary,
The Cornwall Group, Inc., a Florida corporation with its principal office located in Miami, Florida (Cornwall).

We
provide cost-effective solutions to ensure the safety and security of the assets and personnel of our customers and to continually improve the protection we provide for their personnel, programs, resources and facilities. Our goal is to provide
demonstrably superior contract guard services with the highest degree of integrity and responsiveness.

In January 2006,
Paragon Systems entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Southeastern Protective Services, Inc. (Southeastern Protective Services) to form Southeastern Paragon (also referred to herein as SEP). Paragon Systems owns
49% and Southeastern Protective Services owns 51% of SEP. Southeastern Paragon was formed to bid on certain contracts, and Paragon Systems manages the contracts awarded to SEP. We account for the results of SEP in accordance with Accounting
Principal Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock,and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 46(R) (revised December 2003), Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities  an Interpretation of ARB No. 51.

In September, 2007, Paragon Systems formed On Duty Patrol
Services LLC (ODPS), a joint venture between Paragon Systems and On Duty Patrol Services, Inc. ODPS has been certified by the U.S. Small Business Administration as a small and disadvantaged business (an 8(a) firm) and is
therefore qualified to bid on security contracts specially designated for 8(a) firms. Paragon Systems owns 49% of ODPS. Since formation, ODPS has not entered into any contracts.

All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

2. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The financial statements presented are unaudited and have been prepared by our management in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the SEC). In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included. For
further information, see our audited financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 (the Annual Report) filed with the SEC. Disclosure that
substantially duplicates the disclosure contained in the footnotes to the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report has been omitted from these notes.

3. Liquidity

The Company has historically incurred losses and has not yet generated sufficient
levels of cash flows from operating activities to meet its scheduled debt service payments and other obligations. Additionally, the Companys 10% convertible promissory notes (the 10% Notes) with an outstanding principal balance of
approximately $7.5 million mature in September and October of 2008. The Company anticipates that the recently awarded contracts along with the initiatives instituted to maximize cash flows and raise additional equity will alleviate any short-term
liquidity issues facing the Company. Management is also evaluating various alternatives to restructure the 10% Notes which mature later this year. Management believes these initiatives will contribute toward achieving profitability and alleviating
the liquidity issues facing the Company.

4. Stock-based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment (SFAS No. 123(R)), using the modified prospective
method and, therefore, reflects compensation expense in accordance with the SFAS No. 123(R) transition provisions. Under the modified prospective method, prior periods are not restated to reflect the impact of adopting the new standard at
earlier dates.

##### Table of Contents

In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), the Company recorded $365,000 and $75,000 of stock-based
compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, related to employee stock options. After recording the expense through March 31, 2008, there remained approximately $482,000 of unrecognized
compensation cost related to unvested employee stock options to be recognized over the next two years.

5. Common and Preferred Stock

Immediately prior to the initial public offering of the common stock on February 9, 2005, we entered into an exchange and recapitalization agreement
with all of the holders of the outstanding common stock and convertible preferred stock and holders of outstanding rights to acquire the common stock. Pursuant to the agreement, we implemented a reverse stock split of all the outstanding shares of
the common stock and stock options and exchanged common stock for all outstanding Series A and B convertible preferred stock. The recapitalization was given retroactive treatment in the financial statements and related disclosures.

On September 13, 2007, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and General Release (the Paragon Settlement Agreement), among the
Company, Paragon Systems, and Ronald G. Farrell, our Chief Executive Officer, on the one hand, and Charles Keathley, Robert Luther, John Wilson and Harold Bright, on the other hand (collectively, the Selling Shareholders), with respect
to all of the litigation pending among the Company, Paragon Systems, Mr. Farrell and the Selling Shareholders (collectively, the Litigation). Pursuant to the Paragon Settlement Agreement:

(i) we paid the Selling Shareholders an aggregate of $1,250,000;

(ii) the Selling Shareholders and the Company cancelled the shares of the Companys Series C redeemable preferred stock held by the Selling Shareholders, which shares had an aggregate redemption value of
$6,000,000;

(iii) the Selling Shareholders terminated and released their security interest in the outstanding shares of capital stock of
Paragon Systems;

(iv) we issued to the Selling Shareholders an aggregate of 700,000 shares of common stock and an aggregate of 100 shares
of our newly-designated Series D redeemable preferred stock (the Preferred Shares), which Preferred Shares (a) have an aggregate redemption value of $1,500,000, payable upon the earlier of September 13, 2012 or the date on
which the Company sells 70% or more of its assets in one or more transactions (unless the proceeds from such sale are reinvested in the Companys business, used to restructure debt or used for acquisitions or working capital purposes), and
(b) accrue dividends of $750 per share per annum which are payable quarterly;

(v) we agreed not to amend Mr. Farrells
employment agreement with the Company to increase or enhance the compensation or benefits payable to him thereunder until September 13, 2008;

(vi) we agreed to issue to the Selling Shareholders an aggregate of 10% of any equity securities of the Company which are issued to Mr. Farrell during the period commencing on May 18, 2007 and ending on May 18, 2008;

(vii) the Selling Shareholders granted to Mr. Farrell a proxy to vote, in his sole and absolute discretion, an aggregate of 700,000
shares of common stock held by them until such time as such shares are sold by them to an unaffiliated party in accordance with the terms of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act);

(viii) the Company agreed to indemnify the Selling Shareholders for costs and expenses incurred by them relating to the litigation which had been pending
against the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia regarding the Companys initial public offering; and

(ix) the Company, Paragon Systems and the Selling Shareholders released each other from all claims and obligations among them existing as of September 13, 2007 (except for obligations arising pursuant to the
terms of the Paragon Settlement Agreement) and have caused the Litigation to be dismissed with prejudice.

During the first quarter of
2008, the Company granted to Mr. Farrell an option to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, which vests with respect to one-half of the underlying shares on the date of grant and the remaining one-half
of the underlying shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Pursuant to the Paragon Settlement Agreement and concurrently with the grant to Mr. Farrell, the Company granted to the Selling Shareholders options to purchase an
aggregate of 40,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, which options vest on the same schedule as the option granted to Mr. Farrell.

One September 13, 2007, and pursuant to the Paragon Settlement Agreement, we cancelled the shares of the Companys Series C redeemable preferred stock held by the Selling Shareholders. Holders of the
Series C redeemable preferred stock had no voting rights, except that a consent of a majority of the holders of the Series C redeemable preferred stock, voting separately as a class, was required to increase or decrease the number of
authorized shares of Series C redeemable preferred stock and except as otherwise required by applicable law. The Series C redeemable preferred stock did not have any preemptive, conversion or sinking fund rights nor did it have any rights
or preferences in the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company.

##### Table of Contents

We are authorized to issue 25 million shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share.
The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters. The common stock does not have cumulative voting rights and no conversion rights. Each share of common stock has an equal and ratable right to receive dividends to be
paid from assets legally available when and if declared by our Board of Directors. We have never paid any cash dividends on common stock.

6. Debt and
Other Obligations

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On October 18, 2005, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the Original Credit Agreement) with LSQ Funding Group, L.C. (LSQ)
and BRE LLC (BRE and, together with LSQ, our Lenders), pursuant to which we borrowed $1,650,000 pursuant to a term loan with a maturity date of October 1, 2007 and $3,500,000 pursuant to a term loan with a maturity date
of October 1, 2009. During the second quarter of 2006, these term loans were paid in full.

On June 27, 2006, Paragon Systems
executed a Guaranty of Joint Venture (the JV Guaranty) pursuant to which Paragon Systems unconditionally guarantees to LSQ the prompt payment and performance of all obligations, indebtedness and liabilities, whether currently existing or
subsequently arising, of SEP (the JV Obligations). The JV Obligations include the obligations, indebtedness and liabilities of SEP to LSQ under that certain Factoring and Security Agreement between SEP and LSQ dated as of June 27,
2006 (the JV Factoring Agreement), pursuant to which LSQ will purchase from SEP from time to time certain accounts receivable at a discount of 0.7% and provide SEP a professional accounts receivable management service for a funds usage
fee equal to the prime rate plus 1.0% on the funds advanced on the outstanding accounts receivable purchased. The JV Factoring Agreement has a $1,000,000 initial purchase limit and a one-year term which will automatically renew unless SEP provides
notice of its intent to terminate.

During March 2007, we entered into an Amendment and Forbearance Agreement with our Lenders pursuant to
which we amended the Original Credit Agreement and secured an additional $2.5 million term loan with our Lenders to provide additional financing. The term loan matures on March 28, 2009.

On December 31, 2007, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) with our
Lenders, which amends and restates the Original Credit Agreement to provide us with a revolving, asset-based lending facility with up to $25.0 million of borrowing availability, replacing our pre-existing factoring facility with up to $12.0 million
of borrowing availability under the Original Credit Agreement. In connection with entering into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, we also entered into (i) a Loan and Security Agreement with LSQ (the Loan and Security
Agreement) and (ii) a Supplemental Agreement to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with our Lenders (the Credit Agreement Supplement).

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement continues to provide for the $2,500,000 term loan to us contemplated by the Original Credit Agreement. Under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, interest on the term
loan accrues at a rate equal to the prime rate, as published by the Wall Street Journal from time to time (the Prime Rate), plus 4.50% (the Non-Default Rate), but at no time shall the interest rate be less than
11.25% per annum. If an event of default under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement occurs, then interest accrues on the term loan at a rate equal to the Non-Default Rate plus 5% and certain other default fees specified in the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement would become due and payable. The term loan requires us to pay a Minimum Balance Fee as described in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement if the term loan is repaid prior to maturity.

Pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement, at our request, LSQ shall make advances (Advances) to us not to exceed $25,000,000 and subject
to a borrowing base, which base includes 90% of accounts receivable, including unbilled accounts receivable through March 31, 2008 and at any time thereafter that the term loan has been repaid in full. Prior to repayment of the term loan,
interest accrues on Advances made on the basis of (i) billed accounts receivable at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 1% and (ii) unbilled accounts receivable at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 4.5%. In addition, until the term loan
is paid in full, we must pay LSQ a fee of .7% of the face amount of billed accounts receivable. Following repayment of the term loan, interest accrues on all Advances at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 4.5%. Upon the occurrence of an event of
default under the Loan and Security Agreement, interest is payable on all Advances at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 9.5%. The Loan and Security Agreement expires on October 31, 2010.

Under the Credit Agreement Supplement, anytime the term loan is outstanding and so long as unbilled accounts receivable are included in the borrowing
base for purposes of making Advances, we must pay a monthly fee to our Lenders equal to 2.25% of the highest daily overadvance amount, which is the highest daily amount in any given month calculated as follows: the outstanding term loan, plus all
outstanding Advances less the borrowing base.

##### Table of Contents

All of our obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Loan and Security
Agreement are secured by a first priority security interest in all of our assets and a pledge of all of the equity interests in our subsidiaries.

The outstanding balance under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2008 is approximately $15.6 million. Additionally, from time to time during 2008 and 2007, we borrowed more than the maximum amount allowable under
the availability formula in both the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Original Credit Agreement. Accordingly, on those occasions when the outstanding balance exceeded the availability, we were charged the default interest and fees by
our Lenders.

As of December 31, 2007, the Company was not in compliance with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the
outstanding borrowings exceeded the borrowing base as defined. On March 26, 2008, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into an Amendment and Forbearance Agreement with our Lenders pursuant to which the Lenders waived certain specified
defaults under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and agreed to forebear from exercising all remedies available to them in connection with such existing defaults until the earlier of the completion of an equity or subordinated debt offering
or January 1, 2009.

If an event of default under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or any agreement we have with our Lenders
occurs, then the entire balance outstanding under all such agreements shall become immediately due and payable. We will not be able to repay this balance unless we raise significant capital by selling assets or issuing debt or equity securities,
which we may not be able to do on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If the balance outstanding under our agreements with our Lenders becomes immediately due and payable and we are unable to raise significant capital or obtain from our Lenders an
additional waiver and an agreement to forbear, then we will not be able to satisfy our obligations to our Lenders, our Lenders may proceed to foreclose on the collateral and our business and financial condition will be materially and adversely
affected.

Convertible Notes

During September and October 2005, we issued in a private placement transaction the 10% Notes, which had an original aggregate principal amount of $8,015,000, and warrants to purchase 834,896 shares of common stock for a total
purchase price of $8,015,000. The 10% Notes and warrants were issued in four closings between September 2, 2005 and October 14, 2005. The face value of the 10% Notes is $8,015,000. Interest is payable monthly on the face value of the 10%
Notes at a rate of 10% per annum. The gross proceeds from the offering of 10% Notes and warrants was allocated to the 10% Notes and warrants in accordance with Emerging Issue Tax Force 98-5, Accounting for Convertible Securities with
Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios (EITF 98-5). In accordance with EITF 98-5, $6,107,000 of the gross proceeds received was allocated to the 10% Notes and $1,908,000 of the gross proceeds
received was allocated to additional paid in capital related to the warrants and the beneficial conversion feature. The conversion of the 10% Notes was restricted at the issue date because of the need for a shareholder vote to approve the
contingently issuable shares as well as certain other restrictions. In February 2006, the shareholders approved the shares issuable upon conversion of the 10% Notes. Accordingly, approximately $1.1 million of the in-the-money beneficial conversion
feature was recorded to increase the book value of the 10% Notes. Of the $1.1 million of in-the-money beneficial conversion feature, approximately $700,000 was recorded as interest expense during the second quarter of 2006 and approximately $426,000
was recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital because of additional conversion restrictions associated with a certain portion of the 10% Notes. During the third quarter of 2007, the 10% Notes subject to conversion restrictions became
convertible. Accordingly, approximately $426,000 was recorded as interest expense and as an increase to paid in capital. The remaining discount on the 10% Notes relative to face value will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of
the 10% Notes. The 10% Notes mature three years after issuance and may be prepaid at the option of the Company after one year after the issuance thereof subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

The 10% Notes are convertible by the holders at an initial conversion price of $4.80 per share subject to certain restrictions. The warrants issued have
an exercise price of $4.80 and expire three years from the date of issuance.

7. Income Taxes

We adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109
(FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on the de-recognition, measurement,
classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues. The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in the recognition of $32,104 of penalties which was recorded as an adjustment to the January 1, 2007
retained earnings. No adjustments were made in the quarter ended March 31, 2008 to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits and no material change is expected in the next twelve months. In addition, the following information required by FIN 48
is provided:



| |  |  | As noted above, as of January 1, 2007, we have accrued penalties in the amount of $32,104 related to uncertain tax positions. As of March 31, 2008, the
total amount of interest and penalties accrued was $216,745. Accrued interest on tax deficiencies and tax penalties are recorded as a component of income tax expense.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The recognition of unrecognized tax benefits will not impact the Companys effective tax rate.

jurisdictions remain open to examination.

As a result of the gain on the sale of the Companys investment in Army
Fleet Support, LLC (Army Fleet Support), a tax payment of approximately $1,300,000 was due in September 2007. This payment was not paid, but accrued. The Company anticipates a refund in 2008 of similar magnitude due to recognized losses
in 2007.

At March 31, 2008, the Company had cumulative gross federal income tax net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of
approximately $3,239,000 available to reduce future amounts of taxable income. If not utilized to offset future taxable income the current NOL will expire in 2027. Additionally, the Company acquired through its acquisition of Cornwall in October
2005 unused federal NOLs. Under Internal Revenue Code Section 382, there is an annual limitation on the use of the NOLs acquired from Cornwall. If not utilized to offset future taxable income, the cumulative NOL amount will expire from 2020
through 2025. The Company also had approximately $519,000 of tax effected state NOLs. If not utilized to offset future state taxable income, then the state NOLs will expire between 2020 and 2027.

An assessment is made at the end of each reporting period of the likelihood that the recorded net deferred tax asset will be realized. The net deferred
tax asset must be reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that some portion or all of the new deferred tax asset will not be realized within a
relatively short period, generally no more than three years. As of March 31, 2008, management recorded a total valuation allowance of approximately $1,019,000 against its deferred tax assets including the NOLs.

The Companys effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was 2.7% and 35.7%, respectively. For the three months
ended March 31, 2008, the principal cause of the difference between the effective rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 34% was the recording of an additional allowance of $537,000 against the deferred tax asset.

8. Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is
computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities. For the three months ended
March 31, 2008 and 2007, the effect of our warrants and stock options were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as their effect was anti-dilutive.

Employment Agreements

Pursuant to the employment agreement, as amended, between us and Mr. Farrell, Mr. Farrell has agreed to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and
President until June 30, 2010. The agreement provides for (i) payment of a specified base salary which increases by 10% per year; (ii) payment of an annual incentive bonus equal to 5% of our earnings before interest, income
taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted (EBITDA), 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; and
(iv) continuation of Mr. Farrells compensation and benefits for the remainder of the term of his employment agreement if his employment is terminated by us without cause or by Mr. Farrell for good reason
or upon a change of control of the Company, provided that if a change of control occurs after June 30, 2008 and before July 1, 2010, Mr. Farrell is entitled to receive all monies which he would have been paid under the
employment agreement had the term the agreement terminated on the second anniversary of such change of control rather than on June 30, 2010. 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.

Pursuant to the employment agreement, between us and Nicolas V. Chater, Mr. Chater has agreed
to serve as our Chief Financial Officer until June 30, 2010. The agreement provides for (i) a base salary at a rate of $250,000 per year, (ii) an annual retention bonus equal to $25,000 per year and (iii) an annual performance
bonus equal to 3% of our EBITDA, as adjusted, for such year; provided, that (a) the annual performance bonus may not exceed 100% of the base salary for such year and (b) Mr. Chaters 2008 performance bonus shall not be less than
$90,000. The agreement also provides that, if Mr. Chaters employment is terminated by the Company 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 the Companys 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 the Company 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 the Companys employee benefit, retirement and compensation plans during the 24-month period following the date of such
termination.

On December 13, 2007, we granted to grant to Mr. Chater, pursuant to the Companys Amended
and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan), an option to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock, with one-half of the underlying shares vesting on each of the first anniversary and the second anniversary of the date of
grant. The option has an exercise price of $2.00 per share which is equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant.

Subject to availability under the Incentive Plan, the Company has also agreed to grant Mr. Chater an option to purchase up to 50,000 shares of common stock on each anniversary of the execution of his employment agreement with the
Company, with such options vesting equally over a two-year period (the Subsequent Options). The Subsequent Options will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Companys common stock on the date of grant.

10. Sales to Major Customers

During
the three month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, 61.5%, and 49.8% of the Companys revenue was earned under contracts with various Federal government agencies through its Paragon Systems/SEP subsidiary. In addition, in
the quarter ended March 31, 2008, two customers individually accounted for at least 10% of total revenue: the Social Security Administration ($3,523,000 or 13.3% of revenue) and the Miami-Dade General Services Administration ($3,917,000 or
14.8% of revenue). At March 31, 2008 and 2007, approximately 63.8% and 53.5% of accounts receivable were due from various Federal government agencies, respectively.

11. Cornwall Settlement

At the closing of our acquisition of Cornwall, we paid a total purchase
price of $13,500,000 payable as follows: (i) payment of $12,825,000 in cash; (ii) delivery of a promissory note in principal amount of $250,000 payable to the former Cornwall shareholders (the Cornwall Promissory Note); and
(iii) deposit of $425,000 with an escrow agent to secure the indemnification obligations of the former Cornwall shareholders under the Stock Purchase Agreement between us and the former Cornwall shareholders dated as of August 11, 2005
(the Cornwall Purchase Agreement). After adjusting for certain working capital items, the net purchase price was $12,753,000. On January 26, 2007, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and General Release (the Cornwall Settlement
Agreement) with David Shopay, on behalf of himself and the other former shareholders of Cornwall, in his capacity as the representative of such shareholders. Pursuant to the Cornwall Settlement Agreement (i) the parties waived and
released each other from all claims and liabilities, with the exception of certain claims and liabilities specified in the Cornwall Settlement Agreement, arising from the Cornwall Purchase Agreement; (ii) the shareholder representative forgave
and discharged all amounts owed by us to the former shareholders of Cornwall under the Cornwall Promissory Note; and (iii) the shareholder representative and the Company instructed the escrow agent administering the escrow fund to release
$200,000 from such fund to us and the remaining balance of such fund to the former shareholders of Cornwall. We recognized a gain of $450,000 as other income on the accompanying statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007.

12. Segment Reporting

The
Companys two reportable segments are Cornwall and Paragon Systems/SEP. The accounting policies applicable to these reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Cornwall segment
focuses on contract guard services to commercial and state and local government customers. The Paragon Systems/SEP segment focuses on contract guard services to various Federal government agencies.

We considered our organization and reporting structure and the information used by our chief operating decision makers to make decisions about resource
allocation and performance assessment and determined management evaluates the performance of the segments based primarily on revenues and operating income (loss). Revenues, operating income, and assets for each segment are as follows (in thousands):

Overview

We provide contract guard services to government and commercial customers. These guard services include providing uniformed and armed guards for access control, personnel protection, plant security, theft prevention,
surveillance, vehicular and foot patrol, crowd control and prevention of sabotage, terrorist and criminal activities. In connection with providing these services, we assume responsibility for a variety of functions, including recruiting, hiring,
training and supervising security guards deployed to the customers we serve as well as paying all guards and providing them with uniforms, employee benefits and workers compensation insurance. We are responsible for preventing the interruption
of guard services as a consequence of illness, vacations or resignations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make judgments regarding estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. We base
our judgments on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe our judgments and
related estimates regarding the following accounting policies are critical in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition.Revenue is recorded monthly as guard services are provided to our customers under contracts. We bill guard services in arrears at hourly or monthly rates based on the number of hours worked under some contracts
and as fixed monthly amounts under other contracts. Hourly and monthly rates are based on contractual terms.

The terms of our contracts
are complex and may be subject to differing interpretations. We make estimates and judgments about terms of the contracts in providing services and in billing and recording revenue. At times, our Federal contracts require interpretations.
Typically, differences in interpretation are resolved on a mutual basis in discussions with the government agency involved. The resolution of differences may result in a determination that amounts previously billed are not in accordance with
contract terms and adjustments of amounts initially recorded as revenue may be material.

Contracts with Federal government agencies
may be subject to cessation of funding. Cessation of funding may result in amounts billed and recorded as revenue as being uncollectible. We work with the appropriate government agency to resolve funding issues. When funding issues become
known, we make estimates and judgments about the extent of potential losses and adjust revenues accordingly. Amounts estimated could differ from amounts ultimately collected and these amounts could be material. During 2008 and 2007, none of our
contracts have been subject to cessation of funding.

Contract losses, if any, are recorded as they become known.

Cost of Revenues.Cost of revenues is primarily comprised of labor, related payroll taxes, employee benefits, workers compensation,
liability insurance, and the pro rata portion of the costs of customer contracts acquired.

We make estimates and judgments of amounts
recorded for accruals of labor related costs. Expenses most subject to estimation and judgment are accrued vacation and workers compensation costs. The terms of vacation policies may be complex and subject to interpretation. Workers
compensation insurance is subject to retroactive audit. Actual amounts could differ from the amounts initially recorded.

Impairment of
Long-lived Assets, Goodwill and Intangible Assets. We evaluate impairment of long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, then an impairment loss is recognized. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived
assets is based on discounted cash flows and the fair value of an asset.

SFAS No. 123(R).On January 1, 2006, we adopted
SFAS No. 123R using the modified-prospective-transition approach method. Under this transition method, compensation costs for 2006 include costs for options granted prior to, but not vested at, December 31, 2005, and options vested
thereafter. Therefore, results for prior periods have not been restated.

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 Compared to
Three Months Ended March 31, 2007

Revenue.Revenue increased $6.3 million to $26.5 million, or 31.2%, for the three months
ended March 31, 2008, as compared to revenue of $20.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase in revenue is primarily due to the increase in revenue at Paragon Systems related to six new Federal government contracts
obtained in 2007 and two new federal government contracts in 2008.

Costs of Revenues.We categorize our cost of revenues into three
areas: (i) direct labor; (ii) indirect labor and other contract support costs; and (iii) amortization of government contracts.

Direct Labor. Direct labor is the most significant expense in providing guard services on any contract. Direct labor was approximately 62.2% of revenue in 2008 and 62.8% of revenue in 2007. When bidding on contracts, we must
anticipate labor rates during the contract term.

Indirect Labor and Other Contract Support Costs. This category of expenses
consists primarily of indirect labor (guard supervisors), our portion of payroll taxes, employee benefit costs and other expenses. Other expenses comprise a relatively small portion of costs in this category. As with direct labor, when bidding on
contracts, we must anticipate the cost of providing supervisory oversight of the guards performing the actual guard services and the related payroll taxes and employee benefits that are provided to both guards and supervisors. Indirect labor and
other contract support costs were approximately 27.8% of revenue in 2008 and 25.9% of revenue in 2007. The increase in 2008 over 2007 is due primarily to start-up costs on the new Federal government contracts obtained by Paragon.

Amortization of Government Contracts. Upon our acquisition of each of Paragon Systems and Cornwall, the existing contracts were valued in
accordance with purchase accounting rules and the resulting asset values are being amortized over the remaining term of each contract proportionate to estimated future discounted cash flows based on an independent appraisal.

Total Cost of Revenue. Our total cost of revenue was 91.6% of revenue in 2008 and 90.8% of revenue in 2007. The increase in 2008 over 2007 is due
to the additional contracts obtained by Paragon Systems where the cost of revenue is traditionally higher than in the commercial sector and start up costs of approximately $492,000 on the new Federal government contracts.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense.Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was 11.1% in 2008 and 12.9%
in 2007. Selling, general and administrative expenses, which include payroll and related expenses for administrative personnel, occupancy costs at the office locations, consulting and professional fees, and other miscellaneous office and corporation
expenses, increased $337,000 to $2.9 million, or 12.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007. This increase is primarily due to higher non-cash charges on
stock-based compensation taken in the first quarter of 2008 in accordance with FAS No. 123(R) upon the issuance of stock options to Company employees.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense relates to the interest incurred under our credit agreements with our Lenders, the outstanding term loan, our mandatory redeemable preferred stock, and the interest
expense incurred on our 10% Notes. Interest

expense increased $410,000, or 89.5%, to $868,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to interest expense of $458,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 2007. This increase is due to the higher level of borrowings, resulting from new Federal government contracts obtained at Paragon Systems, as well as a higher rate paid on our Loan and Security Agreement in 2008 as
compared to 2007 and interest on the outstanding term loan, which was issued in March of 2007.

Other Income.For the three months
ended March 31, 2007, we recognized other income of $550,000 primarily due to the $450,000 gain recognized on the settlement with the former shareholders of Cornwall pursuant to the Cornwall Settlement Agreement dated January 17, 2007.

Income Tax Expense(Benefit).The loss before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2008, resulted in tax expense
of $47,000, while the loss before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2007, resulted in a tax benefit of $305,000. The variance between 2008 and 2007 resulted primarily from the recording of the deferred tax valuation allowance at
March 31, 2008, which was not necessary at March 31, 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2008, we had $571,000 of cash on hand. Cash used by operating activities was $880,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2008,
which was primarily due to the net loss of $1.8 million, the increase in unbilled and trade accounts receivable of $2.0 million at March 31, 2008, offset by the increase in accrued liabilities of $2.4 million. Cash provided by financing
activities was $1.4 million primarily due to the proceeds from our asset-based lending facility.

The outstanding balance under the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2008 was approximately $15.6 million. Additionally, from time to time during 2008 and 2007, we have borrowed more than the maximum amount allowable under the availability formula in both the Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement and the Original Credit Agreement. Accordingly, on those occasions when the outstanding balance exceeded the availability, we were charged the default interest and fees by our Lenders.

As of December 31, 2007, we were not in compliance with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and our outstanding borrowings exceeded the
borrowing base as defined. On March 26, 2008, we entered into an Amendment and Forbearance Agreement with our Lenders. Pursuant to this agreement, our Lenders waived certain specified defaults under Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and
agreed to forebear from exercising all remedies available to them in connection with such existing defaults until the earlier of the completion of an equity or subordinated debt offering by the Company or January 1, 2009.

We have has historically incurred losses and have not yet generated sufficient levels of cash flows from operating activities to meet our scheduled debt
service payments and other obligations. Additionally, our 10% Notes with an outstanding principal balance of approximately $7.5 million mature in September and October of 2008. We anticipate that the recently awarded contracts along with the
initiatives instituted to maximize cash flows and raise additional equity will alleviate any short-term liquidity issues facing the Company. Management is also evaluating various alternatives to restructure the 10% Notes which mature later this
year. Management believes these initiatives will contribute toward achieving profitability and alleviating the liquidity issues facing the Company.



|Item 4T. | Controls and Procedures
|-------- | -----------------------

Our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of March 31, 2008. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of March 31,
2008, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the first quarter of 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings
|------- | -----------------

Except as set forth in our
Annual Report, and as discussed below, we believe that, based on currently known facts, there are no claims or litigation pending against us the disposition of which would materially affect our financial position or future operating results,
although we cannot be certain as to the ultimate outcome of any such claim or litigation. In addition, exposure to litigation is inherent in our ongoing business and may harm our business in the future.

Litigation Regarding Our Initial Public Offering and Related Insurance Coverage

On November 1, 2006, a purported class action complaint was filed in the State Court of Fulton County, State of Georgia, against Tri-S Security, its
Chief Executive Officer, its former Chief Financial Officer and the lead underwriters in Tri-S Securitys initial public offering, alleging, among other things, violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act in connection with
Tri-S Securitys initial public offering (Unschuld v. Tri-S Security Corp., et al., the Unschuld Litigation). More specifically, the complaint alleges that the registration statement relating to the initial public offering
was materially inaccurate and misleading because it failed to disclose certain problems with the operations and financial condition of Paragon Systems of which the complaint alleges we were aware. The complaint seeks class certification, unspecified
compensatory damages or rescission, as appropriate, and costs and disbursements relating to the lawsuit, including reasonable attorneys fees. On December 1, 2006, Tri-S Security removed the lawsuit to the United States District Court for
the Northern District of Georgia. Plaintiff moved to remand the case back to the state court, which motion was granted on September 14, 2007, and the case is now pending in the State Court of Fulton County, State of Georgia. The deadline for
Tri-S Security to respond to the Complaint is May 30, 2008. The Company intends to vigorously defend the action and believes it has meritorious defenses to the allegations.

On December 10, 2007, Tri-S Security filed an action in the Superior Court of Fulton County, State of Georgia, against Axis Reinsurance Company and
Axis Insurance Company (Axis) for declaratory and injunctive relief. Axis issued a Directors, Officers, and Corporate Liability Insurance Policy to Tri-S Security for the period from March 13, 2006 to March 13, 2007 (the
Axis Policy). Tri-S Security provided notice of the Unschuld Litigation to Axis on November 8, 2006. On November 9, 2007, attorneys for Axis informed Tri-S Security that Axis disclaimed coverage for the Unschuld Litigation.
Tri-S Security seeks (i) a declaratory judgment that coverage for the Unschuld Litigation is not barred by an exclusion in the Axis Policy related to the litigation with the Selling Shareholders of Paragon Systems and that Axis is required to
advance defense costs incurred in connection with the Unschuld Litigation and (ii) an order requiring Axis to advance such defense costs. On April 11, 2008, Tri-S Security moved to dismiss Axis Insurance Company from the action without
prejudice. The Court granted the motion on April 15, 2008. Axis Reinsurance Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia on April 16, 2008 and filed an answer in that court on
April 23, 2008.

On March 13, 2008, Tri-S Security filed an action in the Superior Court of Fulton County, State of Georgia,
against Capitol Specialty Insurance Corporation (Capitol), McGriff, Seibels & Williams of Georgia, Inc. and McGriff, Seibels & Williams, Inc. (collectively, McGriff), seeking declaratory relief and damages. McGriff
acted as Tri-S Securitys broker in obtaining the Axis Policy. Capitol issued a Directors and Officers Liability Insurance Policy to Tri-S for the period from February 9, 2005 to March 13, 2006 (the Capitol Policy). Tri-S
Security provided notice under the Capitol Policy of the Unschuld Litigation on December 13, 2007. Coverage under that policy was denied on January 25, 2008. In the event that the Unschuld Litigation is not covered under the Axis Policy,
Tri-S Security is seeking (i) a declaration that the Capitol Policy requires Capitol to advance defense costs in connection with the Unschuld Litigation; (ii) an order requiring Capitol to advance such defense costs; (iii) a
declaration that the Capitol Policy requires Capitol to cover all loss incurred in connection with the Unschuld Litigation; and (iv) an order requiring Capitol to pay for any such loss. In the event that Tri-S Security is not fully covered
under either the Axis Policy or the Capitol Policy in connection with the Unschuld Litigation, Tri-S Security is seeking (a) damages, in an amount to be determined at trial, against McGriff for negligence, breach of contract, negligence per se,
negligent procurement, negligent misrepresentation, professional negligence, and breach of fiduciary duty; (b) a declaration that McGriff is required to cover any loss as defined in the Axis Policy that Tri-S Security incurs in connection with
the Unschuld Litigation up to the limit of liability of the Axis Policy; and (c) an order requiring McGriff to advance defense costs incurred in connection with the Unschuld Litigation. On April 11, 2008, Tri-S voluntarily dismissed the
action without prejudice.

On May 13, 2008, Tri-S filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Fulton County, State of Georgia against
Axis Reinsurance Company, Capitol, and McGriff combining Tri-Ss claims related to coverage for the Unschuld Litigation. Tri-S seeks (i) a declaratory judgment that the Axis Policy provides coverage for loss incurred in connection with the
Unschuld Litigation and that coverage is not barred by an exclusion in the Axis Policy related to the litigation with the Selling Shareholders of Paragon Systems or by any other provision of the policy; (ii) an order requiring Axis to advance
defense costs incurred in connection with the Unschuld Litigation; and (iii) an order requiring Axis to cover loss for claims related to the Unschuld Litigation. In the alternative, and to the extent the Unschuld Litigation is not covered by
the Axis Policy, Tri-S seeks (i) a declaration that the Capitol Policy requires Capitol to pay defense expenses in connection with the Unschuld Litigation; (ii) an order requiring Capitol to pay such defense expenses; (iii) a
declaration that the Capitol Policy requires Capitol to cover all loss incurred in connection with the Unschuld Litigation; and (iv) an order requiring Capitol to pay for such loss. Tri-S also seeks damages against McGriff for negligence,
breach of contract, and breach of fiduciary duty in an amount to be determined. In the event that Tri-S is not fully covered under either the Axis Policy or the Capitol Policy, Tri-S further seeks a declaration that McGriff is required to cover loss
incurred in connection with the Unschuld Litigation and an order requiring McGriff to advance defense costs incurred in connection with the Unschuld Litigation.

Dispute with Miami-Dade General Services Administration

A search warrant was issued on January 17, 2008 by the Circuit
Court of the eleventh judicial circuit in and for Miami-Dade County, Florida to search the premises of Forestville Security, a subsidiary of Tri-S Security based in Miami for any and all records or documents pertaining to the contract between
Forestville Security (Forestville) and Miami-Dade General Services Administration (GSA) for the period of April 1, 2005 to August 1, 2007.

The search warrant states that GSA is alleging that it has uncovered instances of fraudulent billing committed by Forestville in connection with the GSA
contract. Forestville is fully cooperating with the authorities regarding the investigation.

The Company believes that the allegations
made against Forestville in the search warrant are unfounded and that the Company has meritorious defenses to such allegations. Accordingly, the Company has not established a reserve with respect to this matter.

Correspondence from SEC

On February 2, 2007, the SEC notified us that (i) our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the years ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, are not in compliance with the requirements of Form 10-K and Regulation S-X and are considered to be materially deficient because such reports do not include the separate financial statements of Army
Fleet Support for the applicable years as required by Form 10-K and Regulation S-X; and (ii) our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2006 would not be in compliance with the requirements of Form 10-K and Regulation S-X unless
audited financial statements for Army Fleet Support were included therein for the three years ended December 31, 2006. We did not include such financial statements in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2006.

The SECs notification was made in connection with it denying our request, made on January 29, 2007, that the SEC waive the disclosure
requirements of Form 10-K and Regulation S-X with respect to us including the financial statements of Army Fleet Support in our periodic filings. We are unable to include such financial statements in our periodic filings because (i) the
financial statements of Army Fleet Support which are required to be so included do not currently exist; (ii) we are unable to prepare them based upon the limited financial information with respect to Army Fleet Support which we received from
Army Fleet Support; and (iii) L-3 Communications Corp., the majority owner of Army Fleet Support, has denied us access to the financial information with respect to Army Fleet Support that would be necessary for us to prepare the required
financial statements for Army Fleet Support.
