                           Pentagon Protection Plc

                        ("Pentagon" or the "Company")

     Unaudited Interim Financial Statements for the period ended 31 March
                                     2014

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Introduction

These are the results for Pentagon Protection Plc for the interim
period ended 31 March 2014.

Financial review

Turnover of £596,412 for the six months to 31 March 2014 and a loss
after tax of £380,201 represents a significantly poorer performance compared
to the same period last year. As a result, the statement of financial position
shows total equity attributable to the shareholders of the parent as negative
£108,451.

Post balance sheet events

It was announced on 14 April 2014, despite a relatively healthy
sales pipeline for each of the Company's three divisions, the lack of working
capital and the Company's cash constraints meant that management were in
discussions regarding short term financing.

On 6 May 2014, the Board requested that trading of the ordinary
shares of the Company on the AIM Market be temporarily suspended pending
clarification of the Group's financial position. It also confirmed that the
financial condition and prospects of the Group had not improved and it was
likely the Board would need to appoint administrators to the Company.

On 22 May 2014, the Company disposed of the entire issued share
capital of SDS Group Limited ("SDS"), the Group's security division for a
total consideration of £190,000 on an intercompany debt free basis, to Mr
Haytham ElZayn, former chairman and existing 29.5% shareholder of the Company.
Consideration of £110,000 for the shares in SDS was settled by way of
reduction of a loan payable by the Company to Mr ElZayn. In addition,
intercompany balances of £43,963 payable by SDS to International Glass
Solutions LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and £38,683 payable
by SDS to the Company have been assigned to Mr ElZayn for an aggregate
consideration of £80,000, settled similarly by way of reduction of the loan
payable by the Company to Mr ElZayn.

On 24 June 2014, the Company posted a circular to shareholders
("Circular") containing a notice convening a general meeting of the Company
("General Meeting") to be held on 11 July 2014. The Circular contained
proposals (the "Proposals") for, inter alia:

- a Company Voluntary Arrangement ("CVA"),

- the disposal of its trading subsidiaries,

- the adoption of an Investing Policy under AIM Rule 15,

- the conditional appointment of Peterhouse Corporate Finance Limited
("Peterhouse") as Sole Broker,

- placing by Peterhouse of Ordinary Shares at a price of £0.013 to raise
£611,600,

- the issue of warrants, and

- the change of name to YOLO Leisure and Technology plc.

The Circular was issued because the Board had not been able to
secure additional short-term financing for the Company and therefore the
Directors considered that, if the Proposals are not approved at the General
Meeting, it would be likely that the only alternative would be the cessation
of trading and the realisation of assets, which the Directors believed would
deliver very little or no value to its Shareholders.

The Directors therefore made a proposal to creditors under a CVA
process, which provided an opportunity for the unsecured creditors to make a
partial recovery of their debt, which was based on realising a value for the
existing AIM listing status of the business. The Directors also proposed
disposing of the Company's remaining businesses, as part of a CVA process, to
Mr Haytham ElZayn in consideration for the balance of loan amounts due to him.

In order to recapitalise the Company and to provide funding for the
CVA and working capital, Peterhouse conditionally raised £611,600 at £0.013
per Subscription Share, through the Subscription of 47,046,148 new Ordinary
Shares. The Subscription Shares will be issued subject to the passing of
certain Resolutions as set out above.

Subject to the passing of Resolutions at the General Meeting,
Peterhouse Corporate Finance Limited will be appointed as sole broker to the
Company and Simon Lee Robinson will join the Board as Chief Executive Officer
and Mohammed Sohail Bhatti as Finance Director and that Cecil O'Brien and I
will resign from office.

2   Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation

    The interim consolidated financial information comprises the consolidated Statements of
    Financial Position at 31 March 2014 and 30 September 2013 and the consolidated
    Statements of Comprehensive Income, Changes in Equity and Cash Flows for the periods
    ended 31 March 2014 and 31 March 2013 and the related notes of Pentagon Protection Plc,

    The interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim
    Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union. In preparing this information,
    management have used the accounting policies set out in the Group's annual financial
    statements as at 30 September 2013.

    This interim financial information does not constitute a set of statutory accounts under
    the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and is neither audited nor reviewed. The
    comparative figures for the financial year ended 30 September 2013 are an extract from
    the Group's 2013 financial statements, which have been reported on by the Group's
    auditors and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors was
    unqualified.

    This document (the Interim Statement 2014) will be published on the company's website
    and will be publicly available from the London Stock Exchange regulatory publications.
    The maintenance and integrity of the Pentagon Protection Plc website is the

2.2 Going concern

    The Group has net liabilities of £108,451 as at 31
    March 2014. The financial statements have been
    prepared on the going concern basis and take in to
    account the disposal of 22 May 2014 and the
    assumption that the shareholder resolutions are
    passed on 11 July 2014 and that the subsequent
    placing of shares is successful.
