PART III -- NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable  detail why the Form 10-K, 20-F,  11-K,  10-Q,  N-SAR,
N-CSR, or the transition  report or portion  thereof,  could not be filed within
the prescribed time period.

As outlined in a Current  Report on Form 8-K filed on April 17, 2006, NCT Group,
Inc.  (the  "Company"  or "NCT") is in the process of restating  its  previously
issued  audited  consolidated  financial  statements  contained in the Company's
Annual  Report on Form  10-K/A for the year ended  December  31,  2004 and NCT's
previously  issued  unaudited  condensed   consolidated   financial   statements
contained in the Company's  Quarterly  Reports on Form 10-Q or Form 10-Q/A as of
and for the three months ended March 31, June 30 and  September  30, 2005.  This
effort has required the Company to devote a  significant  amount of resources to
completing the restatement of prior financial statements,  and, as a result, the
Company has not yet been able to complete  its  interim  consolidated  financial
statements  for the three months ended March 31, 2006.  The Company is currently
in the process of completing such financial statements and will file its amended
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the quarters ended March 31, 2005, June 30,
2005 and  September  30, 2005 and its amended  Annual Report on Form 10-K/A2 for
the year  ended  December  31,  2004 as soon as they are  completed,  which  the
Company  anticipates will be in the near future.  Once these amended reports are
filed,  the Company will file its  Quarterly  Report for the quarter ended March
31, 2006 as soon thereafter as practicable.

PART IV -- OTHER INFORMATION

(1)  Name  and  telephone  number  of  person  to  contact  in  regard  to  this
     notification

    Cy E. Hammond                   (203)                          226-4447
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        (Name)                    (Area Code)                 (Telephone Number)

(2)  Have all other periodic  reports  required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the
     Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act
     of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter  period that the
     registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no,
     identify report(s). /X/ Yes / / No

(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? /X/ Yes / / 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.

The  Company  expects  revenue  for its  quarter  ended  March 31,  2006,  to be
approximately $1.0 million, a decrease of approximately 42% from revenue of $1.6
million  in the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2005.  At this  time,  the  Company
anticipates  that net loss for its quarter  ended March 31, 2006 will be ($0.02)
per share as compared to ($0.03) per share for its quarter ended March 31, 2005.
