(A Development Stage Company)

NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2012

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

Chase Packaging Corporation (“the Company”), a Texas Corporation, previously manufactured woven paper mesh for industrial applications, 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 being treated as a development stage company in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) ASC 915.

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 interim condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to provide for fair presentation and a reasonable understanding of the information presented. The Interim Condensed Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, as amended, previously filed with the SEC.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of September 30, 2012, results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, as applicable, have been made. The results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

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, 2011, 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 - PRIOR PERIODS ADJUSTMENTS:

The financial statements of the Company as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and for the period from January 1, 1999 (inception) to September 30, 2011 have been restated as a result of management’s determination that the Company had misclassified warrants and convertible preferred stock issued to investors in the private placement offering occurring on September 7, 2007. The warrants and convertible preferred stock were previously reported as equity. Upon further review of the terms of the respective private placement agreements, management concluded that the warrants should have been classified as a liability and the preferred stock should have been classified as mezzanine equity at inception. The warrants should be reported at fair value at the balance sheet date. The convertible preferred stock should be adjusted to its maximum redemption amount at each balance sheet date.

The restatement of these errors increased the Company’s net loss attributable to common stockholders, as originally reported for the three months ended September 30, 2011 by $45,225 ($0.01 per basic and diluted share) to a loss of $60,962 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 by $79,450 ($0.01 per basic and diluted share) to a loss of $165,209. The restated balances at January 1, 2011 also include a reduction of additional paid-in capital of $1,516,060, an increase in deficit accumulated during the development stage of $369,048, and an increase in warrant liabilities and the convertible preferred stock of $87,240 and $1,816,643, respectively. The restatement had no effect on the Company’s cash and loss from operations or net cash used in operating activities for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011. After reviewing the circumstances leading up to the restatement, management believes that the errors were inadvertent and unintentional. In addition, following the discovery of these errors, the Company began implementing procedures intending to strengthen its internal control processes and prevent a recurrence of these errors.

The effects of the restatement on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and for the period from January 1, 1999 (inception) to September 30, 2011 are as follows:

NOTE 3 - BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE:

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share:

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

We have excluded 27,546,000 common stock equivalents (preferred stock and warrants) from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, which, if included, would have an antidilutive effect.

NOTE 4 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

NOTE 5 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING:

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 Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. The proceeds of $2,000,100 were allocated to the instruments as follows:

Warrant liabilities	$	141,027
Redeemable and Convertible Preferred Stock		1,388,367
Common Stock		470,706
Total allocated gross proceeds:	$	2,000,100

Warrants

As of September 30, 2012 and 2011, warrants to purchase 6,909,000 shares were outstanding, having exercise prices at $0.15 and expiration date at September 6, 2014.

	2012				2011

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the average remaining contractual life of the outstanding warrants was 1.94 years and 0.69 years, respectively.

NOTE 5 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING - CONTINUED:

The warrants, which were issued to investors in the September 7, 2007, private placement offering, contained a provision for net cash settlement in the event that there was a fundamental transaction (contractually defined as a merger, sale of substantially all assets, tender offer, or share exchange). If a fundamental transaction occurred in which the consideration issued consisted principally of cash or stock in a non-public company, then the warrant holder had the option to receive cash, equal to the fair value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrant. Due to this contingent redemption provision, the warrants required liability classification in accordance with ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” (“ASC 480”) and were recorded at fair value. In addition, these warrants were not indexed to the Company’s stock, and therefore also required liability classification under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” (ASC 815).

ASC 820 provides requirements for disclosure of liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to the initial recognition. Fair values for warrants are determined using the Binomial Lattice valuation technique. The Binomial Lattice valuation model provides for dynamic assumptions regarding volatility and risk-free interest rates within the total period to maturity. Accordingly, within the contractual term, the Company provided multiple date intervals over which multiple volatilities and risk free interest rates were used. These intervals allow the Binomial Lattice valuation model to project outcomes along specific paths which consider volatilities and risk free rates that would be more likely in an early exercise scenario.

Significant assumptions are determined as follows:

Trading market values—Published trading market values;

Exercise price—Stated exercise price;

Term—Remaining contractual term of the warrant;

Volatility—Historical trading volatility for periods consistent with the remaining terms;

Risk-free rate—Yields on zero coupon government securities with remaining terms consistent with the remaining terms of the warrants.

Due to the fundamental transaction provision, which could provide for early redemption of the warrants, the model also considered the probability the Company would enter into a fundamental transaction during the remaining term of the warrant. Since the Company is still in its development stage and is not yet achieving positive cash flow, management believes the probability of a fundamental transaction occurring over the term of the warrant is approximately ranging from 0.75% - 1.00%. For valuation purposes, the Company also assumed that if such a transaction did occur, it was more likely to occur towards the end of the term of the warrants.

The warrants issued are not only subject to traditional anti-dilution protection, such as stock splits and dividends, but they were also subject to down-round anti-dilution protection. Accordingly, if the Company sold common stock or common stock indexed financial instruments below the stated exercise price, the exercise price related to these warrants would adjust to that lower amount. The Lattice model used to value the warrants with down-round anti-dilution protection provided for multiple, probability-weighted scenarios at the stated exercise price and at five additional decrements/scenarios on each valuation date in order to encompass the value of the anti-dilution provisions in the estimate of fair value of the warrants, Calculations were performed at the stated exercise price and at five additional decrements/scenarios on each valuation date. The calculations provide for multiple, probability-weighted scenarios reflecting decrements that result from declines in the market prices. Decrements are predicated on the trading market prices in decreasing ranges below the contractual exercise price. For each valuation date, multiple Binomial Lattice calculations were performed which were probability weighted by considering both the Company’s (i) historical market pricing trends, and (ii) an outlook for whether or not the Company may need to issue equity or equity-indexed instruments in the future with a price less than the current exercise price.

Effective June 30, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to its Warrant Agreement. The amendment to remove the put and the down-round protection feature allows for the Warrants to be treated as equity beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2012. The amendments to the Warrants resulted in an approximate value of $10,600 which was based on comparing the valuation of the modified warrants using the current assumptions to the valuation immediately prior to the modification. On June 30, 2012, the $10,571 of warrants liability was extinguished and was charged against $9,396 of Warrant liability extinguishment on the Statement of Operation and $1,176 of Additional paid-in capital on the Balance Sheet.

NOTE 5 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING - CONTINUED:

The following table summarizes the fair value of the warrants liability as of the balance sheet date:

Fair values	September 30, 2012		December 31, 2011		At transaction date

September 7, 2007 financing	$	-	$	70,991	$	141,027

Warrants issued to the placement agents in the private placement are included with the warrants to investors as they have identical exercise prices and terms.

As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the number of shares indexed to the warrants was 0 and 6,909,000, respectively.

Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock

The principal terms of the Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock were as follows:

Voting rights – The Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock has voting rights (one vote per share) equal to those of the Company’s common stock.

Dividend rights – The Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock carries a fixed cumulative dividend, as and when declared by our Board of Directors, of 10% per annum, accrued daily, compounded annually and payable in cash upon a liquidation event for up to five years, as well as the right to receive any dividends paid to holders of common stock.

Conversion rights – The holders of the Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to convert any or all of their Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock, at the option of the holder, at any time, into common stock on a one for one thousand basis.

Redemption rights –The shares of the Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Company, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, upon written notice by the Company to the holders of Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock at any time in the event that the Preferred Stock of one or more holders has not been previously converted. The Company shall redeem each share of Preferred Stock of such holders within thirty (30) days of the Company's delivery of notice to such holders and such holders shall surrender the certificate(s) representing such shares of Preferred Stock.

NOTE 5 - PRIVATE PLACEMENT OFFERING - CONTINUED:

Liquidation entitlement – In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, in preference to the holders of common stock, an amount equal to $100 per share of Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock plus all accrued and unpaid dividends.

At any time on or after August 2, 2011, the Holders of 66 2/3% or more of the Preferred Stock then outstanding could have requested 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 requested liquidation were inadequate for such purpose, then such requested liquidation should have taken place (on a ratable basis) only to the extent such excess cash funds were available for such purpose.

Other provisions – There will be proportional adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like.

Effective June 30, 2012, the holders of the Convertible Preferred Stock agreed to an amendment to the Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock which deleted the liquidation provision. As a result, the Convertible Preferred Stock was classified as equity (rather than temporary equity) in all filings beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

NOTE 6 - DIVIDENDS:

On November 1, 2010, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had declared a ten percent stock dividend on its outstanding Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock. Stockholders of record as of November 15, 2010 received the stock dividend for each share of Series A Preferred Stock owned on that date, payable December 1, 2010. As of November 1, 2010, the Company had 17,078 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding; the total dividend paid consisted of 1,697 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a fair value of $169,700 and $1,180 cash in lieu of fractional shares. Due to the absence of Retained Earnings, the $1,180 of cash and $1,697 par value of Preferred Stock dividend totaling $2,877 was charged against Additional Paid-in Capital.

On November 1, 2011, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had declared a ten percent stock dividend on its outstanding Series A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock. Stockholders of record as of November 15, 2011 received the stock dividend for each share of Series A Preferred Stock owned on that date, payable December 1, 2011. As of November 1, 2011, the Company had 18,774 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding; the total dividend paid consisted of 1,863 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (which are convertible into 1,863,000 shares of Common Stock) with a fair value of $186,300 and a total of 14 fractional shares which will be accumulated until whole shares can be issued. Due to the absence of Retained Earnings, the $1,863 par value of Preferred Stock dividend was charged against Additional Paid-in Capital.

NOTE 7 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY:

The Company's 2008 Stock Awards Plan was approved April 9, 2008 by the Board of Directors and ratified at the Company's annual meeting of stockholders 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 September 30, 2012 no equity had been issued under the 2008 Plan.

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure,” (“ASC 820”) defines fair value 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, not adjusted for transaction costs. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The three levels are described below:

Level 1 Inputs — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that is accessible by the Company;

Level 2 Inputs — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 Inputs — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability including significant assumptions of the Company and other market participants.

NOTE 8 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS - CONTINUED:

There were no transfers in or out of any level during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and the year ended December 31, 2011.

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 ASC 820. No events occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 which would require adjustment to the recognized balances of assets or liabilities which are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.

The Company determines fair values for its investment assets as follows:

Cash equivalents at fair value — the Company’s cash equivalents, at fair value, consist of money market funds — marked to market. The Company’s money market funds are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy since they are valued using quoted market prices from an exchange.

Warrant liability — the Company’s warrant liability is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and the value of the warrants are re-measured every quarter and each year using the Binomial Lattice valuation model with the assumptions. Beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company has no warrant liability after the amendment to warrant agreement as stated in note 5.

The following tables provide information on those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

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 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 nine months and three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company had no operations and its only income was from interest income on its money market fund which is classified as cash. General and administrative expenses for the nine-month and three-month periods ended September 30, 2012 were $102,686 and $25,626, respectively, compared to $86,221 and $15,871 for the comparable periods of 2011. Increases in general and administrative expenses are due primarily to consulting fees.

The Company had interest income of $129, change in warrant liability income of $60,419, warrant liability extinguishment from exercise of warrants of $9,396 and a net loss of $32,742 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, compared with interest income of $462, change in warrant liability income of $20,555 and a net loss of $65,204 during the comparable period of 2011. The decrease in the net loss of $33,000 was mainly due to the change of the value of warrants of $40,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and warrant liability extinguishment from exercise of warrants of $9,500 and offset by the increase in general and administrative expenses of $16,000.

The Company had interest income of $49, change in warrant liability income of $0 and a net loss of $25,577 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, compared with interest income of $134, change in warrant liability expense of $11,890 and a net loss of $27,627 during the comparable period of 2011. The interest income decrease was due to lower interest rates and a decrease in cash balances. The decrease in the net loss of $2,000 was mainly due to the change of the value of warrants of $12,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and offset by the increase in general and administrative expenses of $10,000.

Accretion of preferred stock to redemption value were $100,005 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, compared to $100,005 during the comparable period of 2011. Net loss attributable to common stockholders were $132,747 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, compared to $165,209 during the comparable period of 2011.

Accretion of preferred stock to redemption value were $33,335 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, compared to $33,335 during the comparable period of 2011. Net loss attributable to common stockholders were $58,912 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, compared to $60,962 during the comparable period of 2011.

Due to the closing of a private placement of the Company’s securities in the third quarter of 2007, the Company had a cash balance as of September 30, 2012 of $1,382,929. 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 stockholders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2012, the Company had cash of $1,382,929. Cash consists of cash held in a bank. Working capital at September 30, 2012 was $1,373,175. Management believes that the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to meet its business development activities and declaration of dividends for at least the next 12 months and for the costs of securing a merger partner or acquiring an operating business.

Net cash of approximately $101,977, and $81,063 were used in operations during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

No cash flows were used or provided by investing activities during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively

No cash proceeds were provided by or used in financing activities during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively

Factors Which May Affect Future Results

Future earnings of the Company are dependent on interest rates earned on the Company’s invested balances and expenses incurred. The Company expects to incur significant expenses in connection with its objective of securing a merger partner or acquiring an operating business.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports, such as this report, that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of September 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting for the period as disclosed below.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2012. We had not designated or otherwise maintained adequate controls to ensure that we adopted accepted accounting policies with respect to non-routine matters, such as the accounting for warrants or the anti-dilution make whole provisions on our common stock. In particular, we concluded that FASB ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, had not been applied properly. As a result, as disclosed in Note 2 to our financial statements included in this Form 10-Q, we restated our financial statements as of and for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011.

Due to the weakness noted, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2012. The above weakness and resulting misstatement are believed to be inadvertent and unintentional. In addition, we have implemented remedial measures in order to improve and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting and avoid future misstatements of our financial statements. During the first quarter of 2013, the remedial measures we implemented include the following:

l	We have designed new controls to help ensure that we adopt new accounting guidance with respect to non-routine transactions in a timely manner;

l	We have hired additional accounting personnel and brought previously outsourced administrative accounting functions in-house to ensure additional continuity among all company transactions and accounting functions.

Our management is committed to improving our internal controls. We believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the material weakness identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate to put effective controls in place.

Our management does not believe that this material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting had a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations or caused our financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2012 to contain a material misstatement.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect materially, our internal control over financial reporting.
