Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 3, 2006, Robert P. Dowski, ("Dowski"), Chief Financial Officer of The Allied Defense Group, Inc. ("Allied"), made a $1 million loan advance to Allied. Allied executed and delivered a Term Loan Promissory Note dated February 3, 2006 to Dowski to evidence this loan (the "Note"). A copy of the Note is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

The Note provides for advances of up to $2 million (the "Loan"). Only $1 million has been advanced to date. The Note provides that other individuals/entities may join Dowski in advancing the Loan. The entity which is the independent distributor of MECAR S.A., Allied’s Belgian munitions subsidiary, responsible for distributing MECAR’s products to one of its principal customers, has indicated that it will advance the second $1 million if necessary. All unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest (at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum) is due and payable on March 15, 2006.

In connection with the Loan, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Allied agreed to grant 1,000 shares of the Common Stock of Allied for each $1 million of the Loan which is actually advanced.

Dowski entered into a Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement with Patriot Capital Funding LLC I ("Patriot"), Allied’s senior lender, by which Dowski subordinated the Loan to all amounts advanced by Patriot to Allied. A copy of the Subordination and Intercreditor Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2.





Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On February 3, 2006, Allied obtained the Loan from Dowski. The Loan is described under Item 1.02 hereof.





Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

By letter dated February 2, 2006, Patriot notified Allied that it was in default of various covenants set forth in the senior loan documents dated as of May 28, 2004, as amended (the "Senior Loan Documents"), including the failure to maintain appropriate cash collateral. Effective as of February 2, 2006, all amounts payable under the Senior Loan Documents will bear interest at fourteen percent (14%) per annum, the default rate set forth in the Senior Loan Documents.

By separate letter dated February 3, 2006, Patriot agreed to forbear from declaring a Matured Default under the Senior Loan Documents due to the existing covenant defaults through March 3, 2006 (the "Expiration Date"). On or before the Expiration Date, Allied is to provide Patriot a schedule outlining proposed cash deposits to comply with the cash collateral requirements of the Senior Loan Documents, which schedule may be accepted or rejected by Patriot in its sole discretion.

Copies of the February 2, 2006 and February 3, 2006 letters from Patriot are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4.
