Item 4. Description of Securities
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
provides, in general, that a corporation incorporated under the laws of the
State of Delaware, such as the Company, may indemnify any person who was or
is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (other than a derivative action by or
in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or
was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was
serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorney's fees),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if
such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation,
and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful. In the case of a
derivative action, a Delaware corporation may indemnify any such person
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by such person in connection with the defense or
settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good
faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except
that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim,
issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged
to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent
that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any
other court in which such action was brought determines such
person is fairly and reasonable entitled to indemnity for such expenses.
Our certificate of incorporation provides that directors and
officers shall be indemnified to the fullest extent allowed by the laws of
Delaware. Our bylaws provide that no director of officer of the Company shall
be liable for the acts, defaults, or omissions of any other director or
officer, or for any loss sustained by the Company, unless the same has
resulted from his or her own willful misconduct, willful neglect or
negligence. In addition, expenses incurred by a director or officer in
defending any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he or she
is or was a director or officer of our Company shall be paid by the Company
unless such officer or director is adjudged liable for negligence or
misconduct in the performance of his or her duties.
This means that our certificate of incorporation provides that
a director is not personally liable for monetary damages to us or our
stockholders for breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director. A
director will be held liable for a breach of his or her duty of loyalty to us
or our stockholders, his or her intentional misconduct or willful violation of
law, actions or in actions not in good faith, an unlawful stock purchase or
payment of a dividend under Delaware law, or transactions from which the
director derives an improper personal benefit. This limitation of liability
does not affect the availability of equitable remedies against the director
including injunctive relief or rescission.

Item 9. Undertakings
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3)of
the Securities Act 1933:
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
Registration Statement:
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the
plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or
any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraph (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15 (d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in this Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendments shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by mean of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered hereunder that remain unsold
at the termination of the offering.
(b)The undersigned Company hereby undertakes that for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this
Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered herein and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the above-described provisions, or
otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities
and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Re: Opinion of Counsel - Registration Statement on Form S-8
Gentlemen:
I have acted as counsel for Federal Security Protection Services, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and
filing of the Company's Registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Registration Statement") relating to 2,400,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock, $.001 par value, (the "Common Stock")
issuable pursuant to the Company's plans with Blair J.
Merriam, Dennis Schlagel and Daniel Thornton.
I have examined and am familiar with originals or copies, certified or
otherwise, identified to our satisfaction, of such statutes, documents,
corporate records and certificates of public officials as I have deemed
necessary for the purposes of this opinion, including, but not limited to the
following: (i) the Articles of Incorporation, as amended; (ii) the Bylaws of
the Company, as amended; and (iii) the record of all action taken by the
Board of Directors of the Company in connection with any matters covered by
this opinion.
Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that the shares of Common
Stock issuable under the Plans are duly authorized and, when issued in
accordance with the Plans, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
Further, I consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
