Item 3.02 Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

On February 25, 2009, Tri-S Security Corporation (the “Company”) issued to an accredited investor: (i) a promissory note with a principal amount of $100,000, which is convertible into shares of the Company’s 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 (the “Note”); and (ii) a five-year warrant to purchase 10,417 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.70 per share (the “Warrant”). The investor agreed to accept the Note and Warrant (collectively, the “Securities”) in full repayment of the 10% convertible promissory note with an outstanding principal amount of $100,000, which matured in October 2008, previously issued by the Company to the investor.

The Securities were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), upon the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder (“Regulation D”). The Company based such reliance upon representations made by the investor regarding the investor’s investment interest, sophistication and status as an “accredited investor,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, among other things.
