Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

The information in Item 3.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by this reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On November 21, 2007, Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the closing of a private placement, pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 126,750 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Shares”), for a purchase price of $5.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $633,750 (the “Private Placement”). The Shares were issued and sold to a total of 8 accredited investors pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement entered into as of November 21, 2007 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”).

The Shares were issued in the Private Placement without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 506 of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) promulgated under the Securities Act. The Company based such reliance upon representations made by each purchaser of Shares, including, but not limited to, representations as to the purchaser’s status as an “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) under Regulation D) and the purchaser’s investment intent. The Shares were not offered or sold by any form of general solicitation or general advertising, as such terms are used in Rule 502 under Regulation D. The Shares may not be offered or sold in the United States absent an effective registration statement or an exemption from the registration requirements under applicable federal and state securities laws.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company has agreed to prepare and file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) covering the resale of the Shares purchased in the Private Placement, and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as possible after the filing thereof and to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until all shares covered by such Registration Statement have been sold, or may be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144(k) (or any successor Rule under the Securities Act).
