Item 8.01. Other Events.

On March 7, 2011, China Fire & Security Group, Inc., Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that the Special Committee of its Board of Directors (the "Special Committee") has received a non-binding letter from a leading global private equity firm (the "PE"), pursuant to which the PE proposes to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company in cash at a price which represents a premium over the current stock price (the "Proposal"). According to the Proposal, the PE is willing to structure the proposed acquisition to allow the existing members of the Company's management to exchange all or part of their equity interests in the Company into equity securities in the post-acquisition company. The Proposal is subject to certain conditions, including, among other things, successful completion of due diligence to the satisfaction of the PE.

The Special Committee, which was formed to consider certain potential transactions involving the Company (including the Proposal), has retained Barclays Capital as its financial advisor and Shearman & Sterling LLP as its legal counsel to assist it in consideration of such matters. The Board cautions the Company's shareholders and others considering trading in its securities that no decision has been made by the Special Committee with respect to the Company's response to the Proposal. There can be no assurance that any definitive offer will be made, that any agreement will be executed or that this or any other transaction will be approved or consummated. A copy of the press release is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1 to this current report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
