This paper reports on the cloudy-bag model, in which the value of the electric dipole amplitude of the photoproduction of neutral pions off protons at threshold connected with the additional contribution from the chiral symmetry breaking interaction is evaluated. If this additional contribution is included in the amplitude of the photoproduction of neutral pions off protons at threshold, the discrepancy between the LET predictions and the measured value of the electric dipole amplitude E[sup p [pi]][sup 0][sub 0+] can be resolved for the values of quark masses and bag radii which are close to the generally used values.
