                       LETTER TO ISSUER'S CHAIRMAN AND CEO

                               CLINTON GROUP, INC.

8/14/2007

China Security & Surveillance Technology, Inc.
13/F, Shenzhen Special Zone Press Tower, Shennan Road
Futian, Shenzhen, China, 518034

Attention: Mr. Guoshen Tu
           Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer

Dear Mr. Tu:

Due to the increased share count as disclosed in the 10-Q dated August 13, 2007,
Clinton Group Inc.  ("Clinton")  is no longer  considered a beneficial  owner of
greater  than  5%  of  the  common  equity  of  China  Security  &  Surveillance
Technology,  Inc.  ("China  Security" or the  "Company")  under Rule 13d. As our
filing  shows,  we have  increased  our  beneficial  ownership  by more than 40k
shares, and may purchase more shares in the future.

Though the Company's stock price has increased since our last letter on June 21,
2007, we continue to believe that China Security's valuation multiples of 12.1x
consensus 2008E EPS and a PEG of 0.4x to be extremely low given your management
team's execution to date and the tremendous industry growth opportunity.

I believe that you share our view with regards to the  significance  of a timely
listing on the NYSE.  We believe that a  transition  to a major  exchange  would
expand the stock  ownership  universe and provide an  opportunity to enhance the
shareholder  base with long-term  holders.  We consider E-House (China) Holdings
Ltd.'s  recent  initial  public  offering  on the  NYSE  and  meteoric  rise  as
substantiation  in the demand for U.S.-listed  public equities with  significant
exposure to the dynamic growth in China.

To that end,  we would be happy to lend our  support or advice in  securing  the
final two  independent  directors as well as to introduce  the Company to equity
research analysts at prominent investment banks.

As we have previously  written,  we commend your business  execution to date and
are supportive of your management and excited about the growth  prospects of the
Company and management's ability to implement its business strategy.

Please  feel free to  contact me at your  convenience  at (212)  377-4224  or my
colleague, Joseph De Perio, at (212) 739-1833 to discuss any and all matters.

Sincerely,


/s/Conrad Bringsjord
