EDMONTON - July 12, 2010 (www.Investorideas.com newswire) - Fredy Ramsoondar, CFO and Executive Vice President of United Protection Security Group Inc. (UPSG or the Company), (TSX-V: UZZ), announces that the Company has entered into an agreement providing for an Equity Line Facility (“ELF”) with Dutchess Opportunity Cayman Fund Ltd., a fund managed by Dutchess Capital Management, II LLC. Under the terms of the ELF, Dutchess has committed to provide up to $5 million of capital during the next three years, at the Company's discretion, through the issue of common shares.

"This new equity line facility gives us a flexible and inexpensive access to capital to support our growth initiatives." said F.Ramsoondar, Chief Financial Officer of the Company. "By demonstrating access to capital and the sequential improvement of our financial performance we are sending a clear and positive message to our shareholders".

 

The Company can draw on Dutchess' commitment by sending draw down notices from time to time, within maximum draw limits. Subject to a minimum price to be designated by the Company, the common shares will be issued at a predetermined discount of 5% to the prevailing share price at the time of draw down. The Company is restricted from issuing shares under a draw down to the extent such shares would result in Dutchess and its affiliates owning more than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

The ELF remains subject to certain conditions precedent, including the filing of a base shelf prospectus with the Canadian securities authorities and approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. The agreement can be terminated at any time by the Company without the payment of any additional fees.

In connection with the ELF, the Company will file a preliminary short form base shelf prospectus with the securities authorities. This filing will allow the Company to qualify the shares issued under the ELF and make offerings of common shares up to $5 million during the next 25 months.
