Item 2.05 Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities.

Pressure BioSciences, Inc., (the "Company") terminated eight employees, representing 40% of the Company's workforce, effective November 26, 2008, under a plan of termination described in paragraph 8 of FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 "Accounting For Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities," pursuant to which charges will be incurred under generally accepted accounting principles (the "Restructuring"). The Restructuring was initiated in connection with the Company's revised corporate strategy of reducing costs to better preserve existing cash.

The majority of these payments will be made in the fourth quarter of 2008.

A copy of the press release issued by the Company on December 1, 2008 announcing the Restructuring is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, and is incorporated herein by this reference.
