EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this Amended Report) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 (the Original Report) of Tri-S
Security Corporation (the Company) to reflect the Companys $2.5 million term loan (due March 28, 2010) as a current liability instead of a non-current liability as reported in the Original Report (the
Modification). Aside from the Modification, no other changes have been made to the consolidated financial statements included in the Original Report.

This Amended Report amends and restates Item 1 of Part I and Item 6 of Part II of the Original Report to the extent necessary to reflect the Modification. This Amended Report continues to describe conditions as of the date of
the Original Report, and the Company has not modified or updated any disclosures presented in the Original Report (except for the Modification). Accordingly, this Amended Report should be read in conjunction with the Original Report and the
Companys filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Original Report.

TRI-S SECURITY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2009

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 a joint venture in which we are a 49% partner, Southeastern Paragon (SEP) and (ii) commercial and state and local government customers through our
subsidiary, Florida Business I, Inc., formerly known as The Cornwall Group, a Florida corporation (Cornwall). The Company sold substantially all of the operating assets (except accounts receivable) of Cornwall and its subsidiaries on
May 13, 2009.

Tri-S was formed for the purpose of acquiring and consolidating electronic and physical security companies in order to
take advantage of the operating efficiencies created by a large company. Tri-S has acquired and continues to pursue acquisition opportunities in the contract guard services and system integration services segments of the security industry.

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 SEP. Paragon Systems owns 49% and Southeastern Protective Services owns 51% of SEP. SEP was formed
to bid on certain contracts, and Paragon Systems will manage the contracts awarded to SEP. We are accounting for the joint venture in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46 (R) Variable Interest Entities because we believe
that SEP is a VIE in which we are the primary beneficiary. In the first six months of 2009, Tri-S recorded revenue from SEP of $3.1 million.

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 (the
SBA) 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 its 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,
2008 (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.

In the second quarter of 2009, the Company sold substantially all of the operating assets (except accounts receivable) of Cornwall and its
subsidiaries. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, (SFAS No. 144), a business component that is disposed of or classified
as held for sale is reported as discontinued operations if the cash flows of the component have been or will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the Company, and the Company will no longer have any significant continuing involvement in the
business component. The results of discontinued operations have been aggregated and presented separately in the consolidated statements of operations.

Amounts related to the discontinuance have been derived from the consolidated financial statements and accounting records of the Company using the historical basis of Cornwalls assets and liabilities to be
disposed of and historical results of operations. See note 5 for more information on discontinued operations.

3. Liquidity

The Company has historically incurred operating losses and has not yet generated sufficient levels of cash flows from operating activities to meet its scheduled debt service payments and other obligations. The Company has relied on its
senior lenders, LSQ Funding Group, L.C. (LSQ) and BRE LLC (BRE and, together with LSQ, the Lenders), to fund operations in excess of the borrowing base formula. Our Lenders and the Company entered into a
forbearance agreement dated December 12, 2008 that extends our forbearance agreement through January 1, 2010 and that allows for such funding over the Companys borrowing base and waives certain debt covenant defaults. If the balance
outstanding under our agreements with our Lenders becomes immediately due and payable, as a result of the subjective acceleration clause or other provisions of the loan agreements, and we are unable to raise significant capital or obtain from our
Lenders additional waivers or an additional forbearance agreement, then we will not be able to satisfy our obligations to our Lenders, and our Lenders may proceed to foreclose on the collateral and our business and financial condition will be
materially and adversely affected.

Additionally, in November 2008, we completed our offer to exchange our outstanding 10% Convertible
Promissory Notes due in 2008 (the 10% Notes) for our 14% Convertible Promissory Notes due 2010 (the New Notes) and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock (the Exchange Offer). The Exchange Offer was
completed on the terms and conditions set forth in our tender offer statement on Schedule TO, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 20, 2008, as amended. In the Exchange Offer, approximately $6.6 million, or 86%,
of the aggregate principal amount of the 10% Notes was tendered for New Notes and warrants.

The future success of the Company is dependent
upon, among other things, our ability to: achieve and maintain satisfactory levels of profitable operations; obtain and maintain adequate levels of debt and/or equity financing; and generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet current and
future debt obligations. We anticipate that, with the recently awarded contracts to Paragon Systems, the board of directors approved initiatives to reduce expenses and the sale of our Cornwall business, along with the forbearance agreement with our
Lenders, our cash flows will provide sufficient operating resources through December 31, 2009.

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.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), the Company
recorded $213,000 and $463,000 of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, related to employee stock options, restricted stock and warrants. After recording the expense through
June 30, 2009, there remained approximately $282,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested employee stock options and restricted stock to be recognized over the next 1.8 years.

5. Sale of Cornwall

On May 13, 2009, the
Company sold substantially all of the operating assets (except accounts receivable) of Cornwall and its subsidiaries for a purchase price of $3.6 million, of which $629,000 is being held in escrow as of June 30, 2009 to secure the continuation
of certain contracts transferred as part of the sale. The decision to sell the Cornwall business was made so we could focus on growing our government business and reduce our overall debt load.

Revenues and loss from the discontinued operations were as follows (in thousands):

6. Common and Preferred Stock

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

On September 13, 2007, as a result of the Settlement
Agreement (the Paragon Settlement Agreement) among Tri-S, Paragon Systems and Ronald G. Farrell, our Chief Executive Officer, and the former shareholders of Paragon Systems (the Selling Shareholders), we cancelled the shares
of the 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.

Also, on September 13, 2007, as a result of the Paragon Settlement Agreement, the Company issued to the Selling Shareholders an aggregate of 700,000
shares of common stock and an aggregate of 100 shares of Series D Redeemable Preferred Stock, which (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 and are payable quarterly.

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. Our common stock does not have cumulative voting rights and has 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.

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.

7. Debt and Other Obligations

Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement

On October 18, 2005, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the Original Credit Agreement) with
our Lenders, pursuant to which we borrowed $1,650,000 pursuant to a term loan with a maturity date of October 1, 2007 (Term Loan A) and $3,500,000 pursuant to a term loan with a maturity date of October 1, 2009 (Term Loan
B and, together with Term Loan A, the Term Loans). During the second quarter of 2006, the Term Loans were paid in full.

In connection with the Original Credit Agreement, we entered into a Factoring and Security Agreement (the Factoring Agreement) with LSQ, pursuant to which LSQ purchased from us from time to time certain accounts receivable at a
discount of 0.7% and provided us with a professional accounts receivable management service for a funds usage fee of the prime rate plus 1.0% on the funds advanced on the outstanding accounts receivable purchased. The Factoring Agreement had a
$6,000,000 initial purchase limit and a four-year term which automatically renewed unless we provided notice of our intent to terminate.

Pursuant to the Original Credit Agreement, we also entered into (i) a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to which we unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to our Lenders the prompt payment and performance of all of our obligations,
indebtedness and liabilities to our Lenders, whether currently existing or subsequently arising (the Obligations); and (ii) a

##### Table of Contents

Security Agreement, pursuant to which we granted to our Lenders a security interest in substantially all of our assets to secure all of the Obligations.
Additionally, we have entered into a Pledge Agreement pursuant to which we pledged to our Lenders the capital stock of Paragon Systems to secure all of our obligations under the Original Credit Agreement and related documents.

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 (the 2007 Term Loan) with our Lenders to provide additional financing as needed to provide the capital we estimated was necessary to continue to operate the business during 2007. The 2007 Term
Loan matures on March 28, 2010. The 2007 Term Loan bears a 0.25% per month fee on the unused portion of the loan.

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. The Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement 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, as may be amended from time to time (the
Loan and Security Agreement), and (ii) a Supplemental Agreement to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with our Lenders (the Credit Agreement Supplement and, collectively, with the Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement, the Loan and Security Agreement and all other agreements we have with our Lenders, the Loan Documents).

The Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement continues to provide for the $2,500,000 2007 Term Loan contemplated by the Original Credit Agreement. Under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, interest on the 2007 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 2007 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 2007 Term Loan requires us to pay a Minimum Balance Fee, as described in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, if the 2007 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. Prior to repayment of the 2007 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% (but not less than 11%) and (ii) unbilled accounts receivable at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 4.5% (but not less than 12%). In addition, until the 2007 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 2007 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 includes a subjective acceleration clause and expires on October 31, 2010.

Under the Credit Agreement Supplement, anytime the 2007 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 the outstanding 2007 Term Loan plus
all outstanding Advances less the borrowing base) less (ii) $60,000 or such lesser amount as will reduce the overadvance fee to zero. In addition, the Credit Agreement Supplement requires that we issue to our Lenders a four-year warrant to
purchase 30,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, for each month in which an overadvance under the Loan and Security Agreement exists. In no event shall such warrants issued to Lenders under the Credit Agreement
Supplement be exercisable in the aggregate for greater than 420,000 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2009, the Company has issued 420,000 warrants to our Lender.

##### Table of Contents

All of our obligations under the Loan Documents 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 Loan Documents as of
June 30, 2009, is approximately $26.3 million. Additionally, from time to time during 2008 and 2009, we have borrowed more than the maximum amount allowable under the availability formula under the Loan and Security 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 Loan Documents and the outstanding borrowings exceeded the borrowing base as defined. On March 26, 2008, we entered into an Amendment and Forbearance Agreement, as amended from time
to time (the Forbearance Agreement), with our Lenders. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement, our Lenders waived certain specified defaults under the Loan Documents and agreed to forebear from exercising all remedies available to them in
connection with such existing defaults until the earlier of (i) a potential equity or subordinated debt offering by us or (ii) January 1, 2009. On December 12, 2008, the Forbearance Agreement was amended to extend the end of the
forbearance period from January 1, 2009 to January 1, 2010.

If an event of default under the Loan Documents 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 with an 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 was $8,015,000 upon issuance. 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 was allocated to the 10% Notes and $1,908,000
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 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 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 was amortized to interest expense over the remaining life of the 10% Notes.

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 in the private placement expired in September and October of 2008.

The 10% Notes with an outstanding principal balance of
approximately $7.6 million matured in September and October 2008. On November 13, 2008, we completed the Exchange Offer in which approximately $6.6 million, or 86%, of the aggregate principal amount of the 10% Notes was tendered for New Notes
and warrants.

On December 16, 2008, we issued to each of two accredited investors: (i) a promissory note with a principal amount
of $25,000, which is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $1.75 per share, accrues interest on the principal amount at a rate of 14% per annum and matures on November 13, 2010; and (ii) a five-year
warrant to purchase 2,604 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. Each of the investors agreed to accept the promissory note and warrant in full repayment of the 10% convertible promissory note with an outstanding
principal amount of $25,000, which matured in September 2008, previously issued by us to such investor.

On January 8, 2009, we issued
to each of two accredited investors: (i) a promissory note with a principal amount of $37,500, which is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $1.75 per share, accrues interest on

the principal amount at a rate of 14% per annum and matures on November 13, 2010; and (ii) a five-year warrant to purchase 3,906 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $0.95 per share. Each of the investors agreed to accept the promissory note and warrant in full repayment of the 10% convertible promissory note with an outstanding principal amount of $37,500, which matured in
October 2008, previously issued by us to such investor.

On February 3, 2009, we issued to an accredited investor: (i) a
promissory note with a principal amount of $50,000, which is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price of $1.75 per share, accrues interest on the principal amount at a rate of 14% per annum and matures on
November 13, 2010; and (ii) a five-year warrant to purchase 5,208 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. The investor agreed to accept the promissory note and warrant in full repayment of the 10% convertible
promissory note with an outstanding principal amount of $50,000, which matured in October 2008, previously issued by us to such investor.

8. 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 June 30, 2009 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 June 30, 2009, the
total amount of interest and penalties accrued was $187,787. 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.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | The Company and its subsidiaries file Federal income tax returns, as well as multiple state and local tax returns. The tax years of 2006 to 2008 for all
jurisdictions remain open to examination.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At June 30, 2009, the Company had cumulative gross Federal income tax net
operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of approximately $19.2 million available to reduce future amounts of taxable income, as a result of taxable losses form operations from 2007 to current and the sale of the Cornwall Group assets and
subsequent worthless stock deduction. If not utilized to offset future taxable income the current NOL will expire between 2027 and 2029. Additionally, the Company acquired through its acquisition of Cornwall 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
$1.3 million of tax effected state NOLs. If not utilized to offset future state taxable income, the state NOLs will expire between 2020 and 2029. For the quarter ended June 30, 2009, management has recorded a total valuation allowance of $3.3
million against its deferred tax assets including the NOLs.

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 June 30, 2009, management recorded a total valuation allowance of approximately $8.3 million
against its deferred tax assets including the NOLs.

For both of the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the
Companys effective tax rate was 0.0%. For the three months ended June 30, 2009, 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 $3.3
million against the deferred tax asset offsetting its income tax from operations and the additional loss as a result of the worthless stock deduction resulting from the Cornwall Group asset sale.

9. 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 and six
months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, 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.

10. Related Party Transactions

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 the Board.

During 2008, the
Company and Mr. Farrell agreed to amend his employment agreement 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 the date the amendment to his employment agreement is executed and (b) 81,406 shares of common stock on
January 1, 2009. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the reduction in Mr. Farrells annual salary shall 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, if made, will be made pursuant and subject to the terms and conditions of the Companys 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the Incentive Plan).

The Company and Mr. Farrell further agreed the stock grants will vest in a manner such that an aggregate of 10,000 shares will vest 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 will vest 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 the Companys 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.

During 2007, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Nicolas V. Chater, pursuant to which Mr. Chater has agreed to serve as the
Companys Chief Financial Officer until June 30, 2010. Pursuant to the employment agreement, the Company has agreed to pay Mr. Chater for his service as the Companys Chief Financial Officer as follows: (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 the Companys EBITDA 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 employment 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.

The Company has also granted to Mr. Chater, pursuant to 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 equal to the fair market value of our 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 our common stock on each anniversary of the execution of the employment agreement, with such options vesting equally over a two-year period. These options will have an exercise price equal to the fair market
value of our common stock on the date of grant. In November 2008, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors determined to grant 50,000 restricted shares of our common stock in lieu of such options.

11. Sales to Major Customers

During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, 89%, and 69% of the Companys revenue was earned under contracts with various Federal government agencies through its Paragon Systems/SEP

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):
