   Institutional Investment Allows Secure Fortress to Continue Rapid Growth and Address New Markets

Secure Fortress Plc (Tickers: PLUS: SCFP; XETRA: SFK) ("the Company") today announces the successful
placing of a £500,000, 9% Secured Convertible Loan Note to fund the Company's various on-going growth
initiatives.  This capital injection marks the first new institutional investor in the Company since
its UK stock market listing.  The funds were provided by Trafalgar Capital Specialized Investment
Fund, the first European-based alternative investment fund focusing on privately negotiated
transactions to finance companies quoted on exchanges in Europe, Asia, North America and the Middle
East.

Secure Fortress provides secure cabling systems to prevent unauthorised access and mitigate cyber-
crime and cyber-terrorism, the fastest growing threats in the 21st century.  Secure Fortress products
are targeted at combating these threats to US government agencies such as the Department of Defense
and the Department of Homeland Security and to civilian agencies such as the Department of State.  The
company works in partnership with some of the world's largest contractors including Lockheed Martin,
General Dynamics, and Kellogg Brown Root.  The Company has recently expanded operations from the US to
the UK in order to increase its profile and business internationally, beginning in Europe.
 Alexandre Clug, Chief Executive of Secure Fortress, said: "With the Company's recent large contract
wins and a continuously growing bidding pipeline, the Trafalgar investment provides us with the
necessary working capital to smoothly continue executing on our business plan."
