PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons 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. (Attach extra Sheets if Needed)

Protective Products of America, Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Form 10-Q”) for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2009 within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense.  The Company is a reporting issuer in Canada and its common stock is listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange.  In August 2009, the Company filed with the Canadian Securities Administrators unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 that satisfy applicable Canadian securities law requirements.  Unlike U.S. securities laws, Canadian securities laws do not require that a reporting issuer’s financial statements be reviewed by its independent accountants prior to filing.  Due to the significant deterioration in its financial condition, the limited number of finance personnel and the expense associated with allowing the Company’s independent auditors to review the Company’s financial statements for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2009, the Company will be unable to file the Form 10-Q within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort and expense.  The Company does not anticipate being able to file the Form 10-Q by the 5th calendar day following the prescribed due date, and at this time the Company cannot determine when and if it will be able to file the Form 10-Q.

Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2009

(3)

Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?

Yes 

X

No 

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

Based on the financial statements the Company prepared and filed pursuant to Canadian securities laws, the Company expects that its results of operations that would be reported in the Form 10-Q will contain significant changes from its results of operations for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2008.  These changes include a decrease in revenues from $26.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 to $6.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.  In addition, the Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $2.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, as compared to net income from continuing operations of $0.3 million for the same period in 2008.  The decrease in revenues is primarily due to repeated delays in contract solicitation and award timing resulting in a significant decrease in sales.  The net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 is primarily attributable to the significant decrease in revenues.
