NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of MSGI Security Solutions, Inc. and its Subsidiaries, Future Developments America, Inc (FDA), Innalogic, LLC (Innalogic), Nanobeak Inc. (Nanobeak) and Andromeda Energy Inc. (Andromeda), (in combination MSGI or the “Company”). These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company, except for the derivative liability accounting described in Note 2. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and regulations. Operating results for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent period or the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011.

Liquidity:

Historically, the Company has funded its operations, capital expenditures and acquisitions primarily through private placements of equity and debt transactions. The Company currently has limited capital resources, has incurred significant historical losses and negative cash flows from operations and has no current revenues. At September 30, 2010, the Company had approximately $51,000 in cash and no accounts receivable. The Company believes that funds on hand will not be adequate to finance its operations and enable the Company to meet its financial obligations and payments under its convertible notes and promissory notes for the next twelve months. All of our promissory notes and other notes payable are currently either past due or due within the next 12 months. There are no assurances that any further capital raising transactions will be consummated. Although certain transactions have been successfully closed in the past, failure of our operations to generate sufficient future cash flow and failure to consummate our strategic transactions or raise additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and to achieve its business objectives. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of the carrying amount of recorded assets or the amount of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. There are no assurances the Company will receive the necessary funding or generate revenue necessary to fund operations. If we are unable to obtain additional funds, or if the funds cannot be obtained on terms favorable to us, we will be required to delay, scale back or eliminate our plans to continue to develop and expand our operations or in the extreme situation, cease operations altogether.

As of September 30, 2010, we are authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock. If the holders of the convertible promissory notes outstanding elect to convert their holdings into common stock, and the holders of the stock options and warrants outstanding elect to exercise their rights to purchase common stock, the Company is obligated to have issued approximately 188,000,000 shares of commons stock, which is in excess of what we currently have authorized. We plan to ask the Company’s shareholders to authorize the issuance of additional shares or reverse split our common stock at our annual meeting. However there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain the votes needed to obtain the additional authorized shares.

Summary of significant recent financing transactions:

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $189,000 from a certain corporate officer, which has no stated interest rate or maturity date.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share:

In accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the reporting period; however such potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the calculation of earnings (loss) per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 excluded 100,360,496 and 71,231,555 potentially issuable shares from the calculation of earnings per share, respectively, from the conversion of outstanding convertible debt and accrued interest, options and warrants since they would be anti-dilutive to the periods presented.

Subsequent events:

In accordance with ASC 855-10, “Subsequent Events”, the Company evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after September 30, 2010 up through November 22, 2010. During this period no material subsequent events came to our attention.

2. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY FOR EXCESS SHARES

Beginning in July 2009, the Company had convertible debt, accrued interest, contractually issuable shares, options and warrants that, if converted into common stock shares, would exceed the amount of the Company’s authorized common shares. From July 2009 through September 30, 2010 the Company continued to issue new shares of its common stock and new instruments convertible or exercisable into shares of its common stock. At each period of time that one of these instruments was issued, the amount of common shares, which potentially exceeded the Company’s issuable shares above its authorized common shares increased. As of September 30, 2010, the Company had approximately 88,100,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion in excess of its authorized capital.

At various points of time when the amount of excess shares increased, and at each subsequent reporting date, the Company used a Black-Scholes model with the following range of assumptions to value the derivative liability that resulted from these shares issuable in excess of its authorized share capital. Liabilities recorded each time the amount of excess shares increased were recorded with a corresponding entry to additional paid in capital. Any change to the amount of liability after it was initially recorded impacted the statements of operations as income or expense.:

	Low			High
Underlying stock price:	$	0.03		$	0.18
Exercise/conversion price:	$	0.07		$	0.51
Term until expiration:	.75 year			1 year
Dividend yield:		0.00	%		0.00	%
Risk free rate:		0.25	%		0.49	%
Volatility:		205	%		298	%

The cumulative total of the liability and corresponding reduction in additional paid-in capital recorded at each inception was $5,851,799, which included $268,919 and $0 recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The Company used a Black-Scholes model with the following range of assumptions to value the derivative liability at September 30, 2010:

	Low			High
Underlying stock price:	$	0.03		$	0.03
Exercise/conversion price:	$	0.07		$	0.25
Term until expiration:	.75 year			1 year
Dividend yield:		0.00	%		0.00	%
Risk free rate:		0.27	%		0.27	%
Volatility:		211	%		212	%

At September 30, 2010, the resulting liability from the approximately 88,100,000 excess shares was $740,579. The change in the liability from June 30, 2010 to September 30, 2010 of $2,698,714 was recorded in the line item “gain on change in derivative liability” in the statement of operations.

As a result of recording the derivative liability for the shares issuable which exceeded the authorized number of common stock shares, the Company did not record additional derivative liabilities for certain reset provisions in the March 2010 and June 2010 convertible note agreements and detachable warrants issued in connection with those note agreements.

Further, it was agreed that these shares will be locked up and will not be eligible for trading until at least December 31, 2010. As of September 30, 2010, the exchange shares have not been issued to the lenders by the Company and the notes will remain reported as debt until such time as said shares are issued. It is expected that the shares will be issued to the lenders sometime during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 ending on March 31, 2011, pending approval for an increase to the number of authorized shares of common stock by a vote of the shareholders of the Company.

10% Convertible Term Notes payable

Due to the default event, commencing on June 17, 2009, the interest rate is now at the default rate of 18%. While the notes are technically in default at September 30, 2010, the lender has made no claim of default.

On October 18, 2010, the Company announced that it had entered into a strategic Partnership with Attonbitus Development Inc. As part of this relationship, Attonbitus agreed to purchase all of the 10% Notes principal and accrued interest with the intent to convert the value of the debt into a series of investments in various MSGI operating subsidiaries, primarily those subsidiaries related to the NASA technologies.

25% Convertible Term Notes payable

In July 2009, the Company executed a NASA Funding Promissory Note in the amount of $240,004 with a lender who also holds a promissory note from December 2007. The new promissory note was executed in order to enable the Company to meet its obligations under a certain Space Act Agreement, which had been entered into with The National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The note bears interest at 25% and matured on August 30, 2009. As of September 30, 2010, and through the date of this filing, the principal balance and accrued interest has not yet been paid to the lender. Although the note is technically in default as of the date of this filing, the lender has not made any claim of default.

Advances

During the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company received net funding in the amount of approximately $187,000 from a certain corporate officer. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company received net funding in the amount of approximately $189,000 from this same corporate officer. As of September 30, 2010, the total net amount received from the officer is approximately $1,028,000. There is no interest expense associated with this advanced funding and this is to be repaid upon the closing of any adequately successful funding event or upon the collection of the Apro Media related accounts receivable, which has not yet occurred. It is also noted by the Company that this certain corporate officer is owed approximately $824,000 in gross wages (including current period wages totaling approximately $127,000) as of the three months ended September 30, 2010.

The advances have no stated maturity dates and are considered payable on demand. The Company has not recorded interest on the above advances since it would not be material.

6. CERTAIN KEY RELATIONSHIPS

Relationship with The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)

The Company’s collaborative relationship with NASA was begun in August 2009 with the execution of a Space Act Agreement (SAA) forming a partnership between MSGI and the Ames Research Center (ARC) located at Moffet Field in California. The purpose of this collaboration between MSGI and NASA is to develop new prototype chemical sensors using NASA’s nano-sensor technology to meet MSGI’s need in sensor commercialization in security, biomedical and other areas. This sensor technology platform could potentially be used in efforts such as chemical leak detection and hazardous material detection. MSGI intends to develop this technology for commercial applications, homeland security applications, and medical diagnostic applications for type I diabetes (acetone detection) at first and possibly other applications in future years. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in commercializing such applications.

In August 2009, the Company announced the formation of its first subsidiary for NASA based technology. The subsidiary, named Nanobeak Inc. (Nanobeak) is a nanotechnology company focused on carbon based chemical sensing for gas and organic vapor detection. Some potential space and terrestrial applications for this technology include cabin air monitoring onboard the Space Shuttle and future spacecraft, surveillance of global weather, forest fire detection and monitoring, radiation detection and various other critical capabilities. The commercial applications of these nanotech chemical sensors relate specifically to efforts in Homeland Security and defense, medical diagnostics and environmental monitoring and controls. Nanobeak seeks to offer products in these market sectors beginning in the current fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, but the timing of such offers may be affected by unforeseen difficulties in development and commercialization efforts. In September 2009, the Company announced that it is developing its first product derived from the NASA nanotechnology, a handheld diagnostic device designed for medical and environmental testing and detection using breakthroughs in nanotechnology and chemical sensing. Nanobeak intends to take the handheld sensor from prototype to commercial production and international distribution.

In September 2009, the Company announced the formation of its second subsidiary for NASA based technology. Andromeda Energy Inc. (Andromeda) will be focused on scalable alternative energy solutions employing NASA developed nanotechnology. These technologies operate more efficiently than current technologies and therefore yield significantly lower electricity costs per watt than conventional energy systems and sources.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases:

The Company recorded research and development expenses of approximately $65,000 and $415,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively for costs associated with nanotechnology and product development under the Company’s agreements with NASA. An additional amount of approximately $0.9 million of research and development expenses are estimated to be incurred in the future, based on the company’s agreements with NASA.

Contingencies and Litigation:

Certain legal actions in the normal course of business are pending to which the Company is a party. Certain ongoing matters relate to vendors seeking to get paid amounts owed by us, which amounts are included in trade accounts payable or are fully accrued as of September 30, 2010. The Company does not expect that the ultimate resolution of the pending legal matters will have a material effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Tax Returns:

The Company has not filed payroll tax returns since 2006 and has not filed its fiscal 2008 or 2009 income tax returns as of September

Introduction

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the consolidated operating results, financial condition and liquidity/cash flows of the Company for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. This should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, and notes thereto, included in this Report on Form 10-Q and the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010.

The following is a brief description of the more significant accounting policies and methods used by the Company.

Revenue Recognition:

There was no revenue reported for the three months ended September 30, 2010 or 2009.

Significant Events:

To facilitate an analysis of MSGI operating results, certain significant events should be considered:

In August 2009, the Company announced that it had executed two Space Act Agreements with NASA forming a partnership between MSGI and the Ames Research Center (ARC) located in Moffet Field, California. The purpose of this collaboration between MSGI and NASA is to commercialize various revolutionary technologies developed by NASA in the fields of nanotechnology and alternative energy. The Company’s initial area of focus is to be on the use of chemical sensors or nano-sensing technology. These wired and wireless detection systems were first developed for space exploration in 2007 and 2008 for experiments carried out on the Space Shuttle Endeavor. The Company intends to form a number of majority owned subsidiaries, each of which will hold the rights to a specific technology and also serve as the vehicle for investment capital.

In August 2009, the Company announced that it had formed its first subsidiary for NASA based technology. This new subsidiary, named Nanobeak Inc., is a nanotechnology company focused on carbon based chemical sensing for gas and organic vapor detection – effectively electronic sniffing. NASA developed these Nano Chemical Sensors for space missions to increase scientific measurement capabilities with less mass and lower power requirements. The potential space and terrestrial applications include cabin air monitoring onboard the Space Shuttle, surveillance of global weather, forest fire monitoring, radiation detection, and various other mission critical capabilities. This technology was developed at the NASA Ames Research Center located in Moffet Field, California. The commercial applications of these Nano Chemical Sensors relate specifically to Homeland Security and Defense, Medical Diagnoses, Environmental Monitoring and Process Control. Nanobeak seeks to offer products in each of these sectors beginning in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010, but timing of these efforts cannot be assured. The Company subsequently reported the launching of its first product derived from NASA technology, a handheld test for Diabetes, which uses breath instead of blood. Nanobeak will take the prototype handheld sensor, which measures acetone levels with a simple breath, out of the laboratory and into the marketplace. Nanobeak will undertake product testing which will be done in conjunction with a major hospital network in the United States, followed by licensing discussions with the top pharmaceutical companies.

In September 2009, the Company announced that it had formed its second subsidiary for NASA based technology. The subsidiary is named Andromeda Energy Inc. and it is a nanotechnology company focused on scalable alternative energy solutions that operate more efficiently, and therefore yield significantly lower electricity cost per watt than conventional energy sources. The Company is in receipt of several expressions of interest for partnerships in the planned deployment of this new technology from major corporations located in the People’s Republic of China. The Company has also been asked to consider a dual listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

The Company has entered into several business development, investor relations and consulting and advisory agreements with separate service providers. Under the terms of these agreements, the Company has committed to issue shares of common stock in lieu of cash in consideration for the valuable services provided and to be provided by these individual firms. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company issued approximately 8.75 million shares of common stock in lieu of various categories of cash compensation for services rendered and to be rendered by the firms. Such services included, but were not be limited to, investor relations, identification of potential providers of equity or hybrid financing, the identification of strategic or joint-venture and licensing partners, the identification of merger and/or acquisition candidates and the provision of general business and legal advice.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2010, Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2009

There were no reported revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2010 (the Current Period), nor in the three months ended September 30, 2009 (the Prior Period).

There were no costs of goods sold in the Current Period or in the Prior Period.

Research and development expenses of approximately $65,000 were realized during the Current Period. These expenses were paid to NASA as reimbursement for research and development costs incurred by NASA under certain Space Act Agreements, which have been executed with the Company. There were approximately $415,000 of such costs in the Prior Period.

Salaries and benefits of approximately $209,000 in the Current Period increased by approximately $30,000 from salaries and benefits of approximately $179,000 in the Prior Period. This increase results primarily from costs associated with a new employee working in business development efforts.

Research and development expenses of approximately $65,000 in the Current Period decreased by approximately $350,000 from similar expenses of approximately $415,000 in the Prior Period. The decrease was primarily the result of our not obtaining significant funding during the quarter ended September 30, 2010. In any given quarter going forward, our expenses related to R&D will be dependent upon our obtaining additional financing, which we cannot predict with great accuracy.

Selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $629,000 in the Current Period increased by approximately $47,000 or 8% from comparable expenses of $582,000 in the Prior Period. This increase is due primarily to increases in travel and entertainment related expenses of approximately $16,000, professional fees for accounting of approximately $44,000, various rent expenses of approximately $11,000 and Directors and Officers insurances costs of approximately $13,000 offset by decreases in consulting fees of approximately $37,000.

Depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $3,000 were realized in the Current Period and were in line with comparable expenses during the Prior Period.

As a result of the above, loss from operations of approximately $907,000 in the Current Period decreased by approximately $273,000 from comparable loss from operations of $1,180,000 in the Prior Period.

Interest expense of approximately $872,000 in the Current Period represents a decrease of approximately $1.0 from expenses of approximately $1.9 million in the Prior Period. This decrease is due primarily to a decrease in non-cash interest expenses derived from the amortization of certain debt discounts.

The non-cash loss on debt guarantee realized during the Prior Period was the result of the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock to the note holder of a certain bridge loan agreement, which was entered into by Mr. Jeremy Barbera, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of MSGI, and for which a portion of the proceeds were used to advance funds to the Company. The Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its common stock at a market value of $170,000 on the date of issuance. The Company has no further guarantee obligations under the bridge loan agreement.

During the Current Period, the Company realized a gain on change in certain derivative liabilities of approximately $2.7 million. This gain represents an adjustment to the derivative liability related to the number of common stock shares, which would exceed the authorized number of common stock shares, if convertible debt and equity instruments were exercised and converted into common stock, based on fair value calculated by Black-Scholes as of September 30, 2010. There was no such gain realized in the Prior Period.

As a result of the above, net income before taxes of approximately $920,000 in the Current Period increased by approximately $4.2 million over the comparable net loss of approximately $3.25 million in the Prior Period.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Liquidity:

The Company recognized net income of approximately $915,000 in the Current Period. Cash used in operating activities was approximately $277,000. Cash used in operating activities principally resulted from our loss from operations. Cash used in operating activities in the Prior Period was approximately $429,000.

A use of cash for investing activities of approximately $2,000 was realized in the Current Period for purchased of property and equipment. There was no such activity in the Prior Period.

In the Current Period, net cash of approximately $169,000 was provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities consisted of funds received that were advanced from a certain corporate officer, offset pay a payment of closing costs from proceeds of a previous financing. In the Prior Period there was $429,000 provided by financing activities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Office and Chief Accounting Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2010 were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure..

It is noted by the Company that on November 15, 2010, certain of these material weaknesses were communicated to the Company by our independent registered public accounting firm. See the Form 10-K file for the year ended June 30, 2010 for the disclosure of these material weaknesses. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Remediation of Material Weaknesses

The Company intends to take action to hire additional staff, implement stronger financial reporting systems and software and develop the adequate policies and procedures with said enhanced staff to ensure all noted material weaknesses are addressed and resolved. The Company has also retained a third party consulting services to assist in developing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. However, due to the Company’s cash flow constraints, the timing of implementing the above has not yet been determined.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no other changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II- OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Certain legal actions in the normal course of business are pending to which the Company is a party. The Company does not expect that the ultimate resolution of any pending legal matters will have a material effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In May 2009, the Company engaged the law firm of GCA Law Partners LLP, of Mountain View, California, to represent us in possible action against Hyundai Syscomm Corp., Apro Media Corp., Hirsch Capital Corp. and other entities and individuals. Subsequently, the Company filed suit in United States District Court, Northern District of California, alleging, among other faults, fraud, breach of contract and unfair business practices. The Company seeks financial relief and compensation for the alleged actions of the parties named in the action. The engagement agreement calls for GCA to be compensated for all fees incurred on a contingent basis, pending outcome of the lawsuit, and, further, calls for the Company to issue 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company to each of the two partners managing the legal proceedings.

During the last quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, GCA Law Partners filed a motion to be dismissed as counsel for the Company and formally withdrew from the proceedings. This action was not due to any foreseen difficulties with the Company’s case against the defendants, but rather was the result of the Company’s currently inability to remit cash compensation to the firm on a timely basis. The Company has engaged the assistance of alternative legal counsel and the case is proceeding.
