$0.0001 per share (the "Shares") of China Security & Surveillance Technology,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer") is hereby amended by this Amendment
No. 1. This is the final amendment to this Schedule 13D and an exit filing for
the Reporting Persons.


ITEM 5.           INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

Paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (e) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and
restated as follows:

        (a) As of the close of business on December 17, 2007, the Reporting
Persons beneficially owned an aggregate of 2,001,730 Shares, constituting
approximately 4.7% of the Shares outstanding.

            The aggregate percentage of Shares beneficially owned by the
Reporting Persons is based upon 42,153,676 Shares outstanding, which is the
total number of Shares outstanding as of November 9, 2007 as reported by the
Issuer in its Quarterly Report filed on November 13, 2007 on Form 10-Q for the
period ended September 30, 2007.

        (b) By virtue of investment management agreements with each of CMS, CSO
and CLEX, CGI has the power to vote or direct the voting, and to dispose or
direct the disposition, of all of the 1,463,233 Shares held by CMSF, the 352,807
Shares held by CSO and the 185,690 Shares held by CLEX. By virtue of his direct
and indirect control of CGI, George E. Hall is deemed to have shared voting
power and shared dispositive power with respect to all Shares as to which CGI
has voting power or dispositive power. Accordingly, CGI and George E. Hall are
deemed to have shared voting and shared dispositive power with respect to an
aggregate of 2,001,730 Shares.
