Item 8.01    Other Events

On June 3, 2010, Mace Security International, Inc. (“Mace” or the “Company”) filed a motion in federal court to vacate an arbitration award entered against the Company which awarded Louis D. Paolino, Jr., the former Chairman and CEO of the Company, $4,148,912 plus attorney fees and reinstated 1,769,682 stock options held by Mr. Paolino through July 10, 2010. A panel of the American Arbitration Association entered the award on May 4, 2010 in connection with an arbitration initiated by Mr. Paolino. The arbitration panel based the award on its ruling that the Company was obligated to pay Mr. Paolino a severance payment under Mr. Paolino’s Employment Contract with the Company, due to the Company’s termination of Mr. Paolino on May 20, 2008.

The motion to vacate, which was filed in U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania, on June 3, 2010, contended that the award should be vacated because (1) the arbitrators exceeded their powers; (2) the arbitrators acted in manifest disregard of the law; (3) the award was procured by undue means; (4) the award is completely irrational; and , (5) the award is a product of the evident partiality of the arbitrators. Motions to vacate arbitration awards are difficult to achieve and the Company cannot predict the success of the motion to vacate, but does intend to prosecute the motion to vacate vigorously.
