PART III – NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
 
Chase Packaging Corporation (the “Company”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2014 (the “First Quarter 2014 Form 10-Q”) within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense. As previously reported, the Company is unable to file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2013 (the “First Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q”), June 30, 2013 (the “Second Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q”) and September 30, 2013 (the “Third Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q”) and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Form 10-K”) because the Company needs additional time to continue to review the Company’s financial statements and disclosures to be contained in these reports, as unanticipated delays arose in connection with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements and disclosures. Since the Company has not filed the First Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q, the Second Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q, the Third Quarter 2013 Form 10-Q nor the 2013 Form 10-K to date, it is unable to file the First Quarter 2014 Form 10-Q at this time.
