Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On April 3, 2006, the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX") issued a letter to The Allied Defense Group, Inc. ("Allied" or the "Company") stating that the Company was not in compliance with AMEX rules regarding timely filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Allied Defense filed a Form 12b-25 with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2006, to extend the Form 10-K filing deadline to March 31, 2006. The Company filed for the extension in order to enable it to complete the preparation of its financial statements, which were delayed as a result of the requirement to complete additional analysis, testing, and review with its new independent auditor. At the time the Company filed the Form 12b-25, it believed that it could meet the March 31, 2006 extended deadline, but due to the additional work required to complete its financial statements and Sarbanes Oxley section 404 compliance requirements, the Company was unable to meet the extended deadline.

The Company will file its 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as soon as practicable.

Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.

On April 7, 2006, the Company distributed a press release announcing the receipt of the AMEX deficiency notice as set forth in Item 3.01 above. A copy of this press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
