(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2009

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

Chase Packaging Corporation (“the Company”), a Texas Corporation, previously manufactured woven paper mesh for industrial applications, and polypropylene mesh fabric bags for agricultural use and distributed agricultural packaging manufactured by other companies.

Since January 1, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company, has been devoting its efforts to establishing a new business and, accordingly, the Company is considered a development stage company in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7.

Management’s plans for the Company include securing a merger or acquisition, raising additional capital and other strategies designed to optimize shareholder value. However, no assurance can be given that management will be successful in its efforts. The failure to achieve these plans will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and ability to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying interim condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2009. The accompanying interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2 to the Company’s financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, which is incorporated herein by reference. Specific reference is made to that report for a description of the Company’s securities and the notes to financial statements.

NOTE 2 — BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE:

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of shares issuable through the exercise of common stock equivalents.

We have excluded 22,445,000 and 20,727,000 common stock equivalents (warrants) from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, which, if included, would have an antidilutive effect.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. This FSP amends FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This FSP also amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. This FSP shall be effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company will comply with the additional disclosure requirements beginning in the second quarter of 2009.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments. This FSP amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. GAAP for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. The FSP does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. The FSP shall be effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company currently does not have any financial assets that are other-than-temporary impaired.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 141(R)-1, Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies , to address some of the application issues under SFAS 141(R). The FSP deals with the initial recognition and measurement of an asset acquired or a liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency provided the asset or liability’s fair value on the date of acquisition can be determined. When the fair value can’t be determined, the FSP requires using the guidance under SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, and FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 14, Reasonable Estimation of the Amount of a Loss . This FSP was effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. The adoption of this FSP has not had a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows during the first quarter of 2009.

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The adoption of this statement has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of ARB No. 51.” SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards pertaining to ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of any retained noncontrolling equity investment when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. This statement also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued):

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS No. 141. The statement retains the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized in the purchase accounting. It also changes the recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contingencies, requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value, and requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred. SFAS No. 141R is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), to define how the fair value of assets and liabilities should be measured in accounting standards where it is allowed or required. In addition to defining fair value, the Statement established a framework within GAAP for measuring fair value and expanded required disclosures surrounding fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which delayed the effective date by one year for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active, to clarify the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active and provide an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. This FSP was effective immediately. In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly, to provide additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. This FSP will be effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We adopted SFAS 157 for financial assets and financial liabilities on January 1, 2008, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We adopted SFAS 157 for nonfinancial items on January 1, 2009, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We currently do not have any financial assets that are valued using inactive markets, and as such are not impacted by the issuances of FSP 157-3 and FSP 157-4. See Note 9 to the interim condensed financial statements for additional discussion on fair value measurements.

NOTE 4 - 2007 PRIVATE PLACEMENT UNITS (“UNIT”):

On September 7, 2007, the Company completed a private placement, pursuant to which 13,334 units (the “Units”) were sold at a per Unit cash purchase price of $150, for a total subscribed amount of $2,000,100. Each Unit consists of: (1) one share of Series A 10% convertible preferred stock, par value $1.00, stated value $100 (the “Preferred Stock”); (2) 500 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.10 (the “Common Stock”); and (3) 500 warrants (the “Warrants”) exercisable into the Company’s Common Stock on a one-for-one basis.

Table of Contents

NOTE 4 - 2007 PRIVATE PLACEMENT UNITS (“UNIT”) (continued):

Each Warrant contained in a Unit has a term of five years during which such Warrant may be exercised, at $0.15 per share, into one share of the Company’s Common Stock. A total of 6,605 Units were purchased by related parties, including significant shareholders. The exercise price of the Warrants is subject to adjustment to reflect recapitalizations, stock dividends, mergers, stock splits, and similar events that would otherwise dilute the relative number of shares of Common Stock into which the Warrants may be exercised.

Each share of Preferred Stock contained in a Unit has a stated value of $100 and is convertible at any time into Common Stock at a rate of $0.10 per share. The conversion price of the Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment to reflect recapitalizations, stock dividends, mergers, stock splits, and similar events that would otherwise dilute the relative number of shares of Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock may be converted.

There are 4,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock currently authorized for issuance. At the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Company may pay to the holders of the Preferred Stock a semi-annual dividend of ten percent payable in cash or in kind (i.e., in additional shares of Preferred Stock) or any combination thereof. The holder of each share of Preferred Stock has one vote for each underlying share of Common Stock as if such Preferred Stock had been converted. At any time prior to conversion, the Company’s Board of Directors may redeem any portion or all of the Preferred Stock at a price of $100 per share of Preferred Stock. Each share of Preferred Stock will have a liquidation value of $100 per share. At any time after August 2, 2011, the holders of 66 2/3% or more of the shares of Preferred Stock then outstanding may request the liquidation of their Preferred Stock. In the event that, at the time of such requested liquidation, the Company’s cash funds (in excess of a $50,000 reserve fund) then available to effect such liquidation are inadequate for such purpose, the requested liquidation shall take place (on a pro-rata basis) only to the extent such excess cash funds are available for such purpose. In the event of a merger transaction approved by the holders of the Company’s Common Stock, the holders of the Preferred Stock will have the right to a cash payment of $100 per share in connection with such merger, or the Preferred Stock will be automatically converted at the then applicable conversion rate.

There was no beneficial conversion feature recorded as the Common Stock was selling for less than $0.10 per share at the time of the closing which approximates fair value.

Legal and professional fees of approximately $38,000 were incurred in connection with this private placement transaction resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1,962,000.

NOTE 5 — DIVIDENDS:

On May 8, 2008, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had declared a five percent stock dividend on its outstanding Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock for the period commencing September 7, 2007. Shareholders of record as of May 23, 2008 received the stock dividend for each share of Series A Preferred Stock owned on that date, payable May 30, 2008. As of May 8, 2008, the Company had 13,818 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding; the total dividend paid consisted of 994 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a fair value of $99,400 and $1,490 cash in lieu of fractional shares. Due to the absence of Retained Earnings, the cash and $994 par value of Preferred Stock dividend totaling $2,484 was charged against Additional Paid-in Capital.

Table of Contents

NOTE 5 — DIVIDENDS (continued):

On November 7, 2008, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had declared a five percent stock dividend on its outstanding Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock. Shareholders of record as of November 17, 2008 received the stock dividend for each share of Series A Preferred Stock owned on that date, payable December 1, 2008. As of November 6, 2008, the Company had 14,812 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding; the total dividend paid consisted of 724 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a fair value of $72,400 and $1,660 cash in lieu of fractional shares. Due to the absence of Retained Earnings, the cash and $724 par value of Preferred Stock dividend totaling $2,384 was charged against Additional Paid-in Capital.

NOTE 6 - PRIOR STOCK SUBSCRIPTION:

In July 2002, the Company received $8,000 ($0.01 per share) as payment for 800,000 shares of Common Stock which were never issued. Through September 7, 2007 (the date of the closing of the private placement), the $8,000 accrued $2,200 in compounded interest, which management recorded due to the non issuance of shares for a five year period. The Board of Directors of the Company approved the issuance on September 7, 2007 of 68 Private Placement Units (see Note 4) in exchange for the $10,200 of cash previously received and accrued interest.

NOTE 7 - CONVERTIBLE DEBT - RELATED PARTY:

Prior to June 30, 2007, the Company had issued 5% Convertible Notes aggregating $56,500 (“the Notes”). The note holders are directors and an officer of the Company. The Notes were convertible into common stock at par value $0.10 per share. The Company and the note holders had the option to mutually extend the term of the Notes if the par value had not been reduced to $0.01.

The notes aggregating $62,400 including accrued interest of $5,900, were converted into 416 Private Placement Units (see Note 4) on September 7, 2007.

NOTE 8 - SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY:

The Company’s 2008 Stock Awards Plan (the “2008 Plan”) was approved at the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders held on June 3, 2008. The 2008 Plan became effective April 9, 2008 and will terminate on April 8, 2018. Subject to certain adjustments, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued pursuant to awards under the 2008 Plan is 2,000,000 shares. A maximum of 80,000 shares may be granted in any one year in any form to any one participant, of which a maximum of (i) 50,000 shares may be granted to a participant in the form of stock options and (ii) 30,000 shares may be granted to a participant in the form of Common Stock or restricted stock. The 2008 Plan will be administered by a committee of the Board of Directors. Employees, including any employee who is also a director or an officer, consultants, and outside directors of the Company are eligible to participate in the 2008 Plan. As of March 31, 2009, no options had been issued under the 2008 Plan.

On June 3, 2008, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation and increased the number of authorized shares of the Common Stock from 25,000,000 to 200,000,000.

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157), as it applies to its financial instruments, and Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (SFAS 159). SFAS 157 defines fair value, outlines a framework for measuring fair value, and details the required disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 159 permits companies to irrevocably choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparison between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.

Under SFAS 157, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. SFAS 157 establishes a hierarchy in determining the fair value of an asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable. SFAS 157 requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value. Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data.

Except for those assets and liabilities which are required by authoritative accounting guidance to be recorded at fair value in the Company’s Balance Sheets, the Company has elected not to record any other assets or liabilities at fair value, as permitted by SFAS 159. No events occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2009 which would require adjustment to the recognized balances of assets or liabilities which are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The following table provides information on those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

The information in this report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This Act provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements to encourage companies to provide prospective information about themselves provided they identify these statements as forward looking and provide meaningful cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ from the projected results. All statements other than statements of historical fact made in this report are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management’s current expectations and are inherently uncertain. The Company’s actual results may differ significantly from management’s expectations as a result of many factors.

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company and notes thereto, included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of management. The Company assumes no obligations to update any of these forward-looking statements.

Results of Operations

During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company had no operations and its only income was from interest income on its short-term investments which are classified as cash and cash equivalents. General and administrative expenses for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2009 and 2008 were $32,650 and $33,597, respectively. The Company had interest income of $200 and a net loss of $32,450 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, compared with interest income of $12,118 and a net loss of $21,479 during the comparable period of 2008. The interest income decrease was due to lower interest rates and a decrease in cash and cash equivalent balances.

Commencing November 1, 2007, the Company’s Board agreed to pay the Company’s Chief Financial Officer an annual salary of $17,000. No other officers or directors of the Company receive compensation other than reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with Company business and development.

Due to the closing of a private placement of the Company’s securities in the third quarter 2007, the Company had a cash and cash equivalents balance as of March 31, 2009 of $1,755,468. The proceeds from the 2007 private placement will assist management with its plans to attempt to secure a suitable merger partner wishing to go public or attempt to acquire private companies to create investment value for the Company’s shareholders.

Table of Contents

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,755,000. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash held in banks and brokerage firms. Working capital at March 31, 2009 was approximately $1,730,000.
