Marketwired Canada


S. Jorstad, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of United Protection
Security Group Inc. ("UPSG" or "the Company"), a Canadian based security
protection company, trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol (TSX
VENTURE:UZZ), announces that further to the news release dated July 8, 2008,
UPSG is pleased to announce the closing of the acquisition of the man-guard
business of Kanaf Security Group Inc. ("Kanaf") of British Columbia. The
acquisition is effective October 31, 2008.


The purchase price for the man-guard business of Kanaf was $1,377,000. The total
purchase was funded by $500,000 cash on closing, $200,000 payable on or before
April 30, 2009, and a vendor financing of $677,000 repayable over three years.
The vendor has signed a three year non-compete agreement.


The acquisition is expected to generate revenue in excess of $5,000,000 per
annum and EBITDA in excess of $350,000 per year. Kanaf has provided man-guard
service in the lower mainland of B.C by the deployment of proprietary state of
the art integrated GPS software combined with readily available GPS
smart-phones, which allow the user to confirm on-site security service delivery
in real-time. UPSG is currently in negotiations with the vendors to enter into a
master licensing agreement to use the GPS Software with the intention of
deploying the technology to the rest of its customer base.


"I am pleased with the results of our acquisition strategy and the completion of
the Kanaf transaction, marking a second successful acquisition for us in 2008,"
noted Sig Jorstad. I am confident that this accretive acquisition will
complement our strong organic growth profile and make UPSG an even more
prominent growth company in its markets."

investing in accretive acquisitions, and achieving organic growth through
continuous investment in strong management.
