NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1)	Business Overview and Management Plans

We are focused on solving the challenging problems inherent in biological sample preparation, a crucial laboratory step performed by scientists worldwide working in biological life sciences research. Sample preparation is a term that refers to a wide range of activities that precede most forms of scientific analysis. Sample preparation is often complex, time-consuming and, in our belief, one of the most error-prone steps of scientific research. It is a widely-used laboratory undertaking – the requirements of which drive what we believe is a large and growing worldwide market. We have developed and patented a novel, enabling technology platform that can control the sample preparation process. It is based on harnessing the unique properties of high hydrostatic pressure. This process, called pressure cycling technology, or PCT, uses alternating cycles of hydrostatic pressure between ambient and ultra-high levels i.e., 35,000 pounds per square inch (“psi”) or greater to safely, conveniently and reproducibly control the actions of molecules in biological samples, such as cells and tissues from human, animal, plant and microbial sources.

Our pressure cycling technology uses internally developed instrumentation that is capable of cycling pressure between ambient and ultra-high levels at controlled temperatures and specific time intervals, to rapidly and repeatedly control the interactions of bio-molecules, such as deoxyribonucleic acid (“DNA”), ribonucleic acid (“RNA”), proteins, lipids and small molecules. Our laboratory instrument, the Barocycler®, and our internally developed consumables product line, which include our Pressure Used to Lyse Samples for Extraction (“PULSE”) tubes, and other processing tubes, and application specific kits such as consumable products and reagents, together make up our PCT Sample Preparation System (“PCT SPS”).

We have experienced negative cash flows from operations with respect to our pressure cycling technology business since our inception. As of March 31, 2013, we did not have adequate working capital resources to satisfy our current liabilities and as a result, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets or classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Based on our current projections, including equity financing completed subsequent to March 31, 2013, we believe our current cash resources will enable us to extend our cash resources to fund normal operations until the end of May 2013. Please see Note 6, Subsequent Events.

Management has developed a plan to continue operations. This plan includes further reductions in expenses and obtaining equity or debt financing including our most recently completed financing on February 6, 2013 and March 28, 2013, in which we sold units consisting of shares of convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock for net cash proceeds of approximately $746,000 in two tranches of $590,000 and $156,000, respectively; and the conversion of $1,113,700 in principal and accrued interest from convertible promissory notes and other fees. The Company incurred $24,405 in legal costs in conjunction with this financing. Although we have successfully completed equity financings and reduced expenses in the past, we cannot assure you that our plans to address these matters in the future will be successful

We need substantial additional capital to fund normal operations in periods beyond the end of May 2013. In the event that we are unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, we will likely be required to cease our operations, pursue a plan to sell our operating assets, or otherwise modify our business strategy, which could materially harm our future business prospects.

2)	Interim Financial Reporting

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Pressure BioSciences, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“generally accepted accounting principles” or “GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 13, 2013.

3)	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pressure BioSciences, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary PBI BioSeq, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

PRESSURE BIOSCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Use of Estimates

To prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, we are required to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In addition, significant estimates were made in projecting future cash flows to quantify, deferred tax assets, the costs associated with fulfilling our warranty obligations for the instruments that we sell, and the estimates employed in our calculation of fair value of stock options awarded and warrant derivative liability. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when realized or earned when all the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred and risk of loss has passed to the customer; the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.

Our current instruments, the Barocycler NEP3229 and NEP2320, require a basic level of instrumentation expertise to set-up for initial operation. To support a favorable first experience for our customers, we send a highly trained technical representative to the customer site to install every Barocycler that we sell or lease domestically. The installation process includes uncrating and setting up the instrument, followed by introductory user training. Product revenue related to current Barocycler instrumentation is recognized upon the completion of the installation and introductory training process of the Barocycler NEP3229 and NEP2320 instrumentation at the customer location, for domestic installations. Product revenue related to sales of PCT instrumentation to our foreign distributors and overseas customers, to our domestic distributors, and to our new Barocycler HUB440 instrument is recognized upon shipment through a common carrier unless installation is specifically requested by the customer. We provide for the expected costs of warranty upon the recognition of revenue for the sales of our instrumentation. Our sales arrangements do not provide our customers with a right of return. Product revenue related to the HUB440 and our consumable products such as PULSE Tubes, MicroTubes, and application specific kits is recorded upon shipment through a common carrier. Shipping costs are included in sales and marketing expense. Any shipping costs billed to customers are recognized as revenue.

In accordance with FASB ASC 840, Leases, we account for our lease agreements under the operating method. We record revenue over the life of the lease term and we record depreciation expense on a straight-line basis over the thirty-six month estimated useful life of the Barocycler instrument. The depreciation expense associated with assets under lease agreement is included in the “Cost of PCT products and services” line item in our consolidated statements of operations. Many of our lease and rental agreements allow the lessee to purchase the instrument at any point during the term of the agreement with partial or full credit for payments previously made. We pay all maintenance costs associated with the instrument during the term of the leases.

Revenue from government grants is recorded when expenses are incurred under the grant in accordance with the terms of the grant award.

Our transactions sometimes involve multiple elements (i.e., products and services). Revenue under multiple element arrangements is recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 605-25 Multiple-Element Arrangements (“ASC 605”). When vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence of selling price for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, the Company develops a best estimate of the selling price to separate deliverables and allocates arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. Additionally, this guidance eliminates the residual method of allocation. If an arrangement includes undelivered elements that are not essential to the functionality of the delivered elements, we defer the fair value of the undelivered elements based on the estimated selling price of the total arrangement. Fair value is determined based upon the price charged when the element is sold separately. If there is not sufficient evidence of the fair value of the undelivered elements, no revenue is allocated to the delivered elements and the total consideration received is deferred until delivery of those elements for which objective and reliable evidence of the fair value is not available. We provide certain customers with extended service contracts with revenue recognized ratably over the life of the contract.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our policy is to invest available cash in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing obligations, including money market funds, and bank and corporate debt instruments. Securities purchased with initial maturities of three months or less are valued at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair market value, and are classified as cash equivalents.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Research and Development

Research and development costs, which are comprised of costs incurred in performing research and development activities including wages and associated employee benefits, facilities, consumable products and overhead costs that are expensed as incurred. In support of our research and development activities we utilize our Barocycler instruments that are capitalized as fixed assets and depreciated over their expected useful life.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (average cost) or market (sales price). The cost of Barocycler instruments consists of the cost charged by the contract manufacturer. The cost of manufactured goods includes material, freight-in, direct labor, and applicable overhead. The composition of inventory as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 is as follows:

	March 31,			December 31,
	2013			2012
Raw materials	$	180,408		$	183,655
Finished goods		760,445			789,707
Inventory reserve		(50,000	)		(50,000	)
Total	$	890,853		$	923,362

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method, allocating the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives of three years for certain laboratory equipment, from three to five years for management information systems and office equipment, and three years for all PCT finished units classified as fixed assets. Property and equipment includes net book value of $10,832 relating to Barocycler instruments held under lease or collaboration.

Intangible Assets

We have classified as intangible assets, costs associated with the fair value of acquired intellectual property. Intangible assets including patents are amortized on a straight-line basis over sixteen years. The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. When impairment is indicated, any excess of carrying value over fair value is recorded as a loss. As of the date of this report’s filing, no event has come to our attention that would cause us to record an impairment of intangible assets.

Long-Lived Assets and Deferred Costs

The Company’s long-lived assets and other assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Through the date of this report’s filing, the Company had not experienced impairment losses on its long-lived assets.

Concentrations

Credit Risk

Our financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and trade receivables. We have cash investment policies which, among other things, limit investments to investment-grade securities. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, and the risk with respect to trade receivables is further mitigated by the fact that many of our customers are government institutions, large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, and academic laboratories.

Product Supply

Source Scientific, LLC has been our sole contract manufacturer for our PCT NEP3229 and NEP2320 instrumentation. Until we develop a network of manufacturers and subcontractors, obtaining alternative sources of supply or manufacturing services could involve significant delays and other costs and challenges, and may not be available to us on reasonable terms, if at all. The failure of a supplier or contract manufacturer to provide sufficient quantities, acceptable quality and timely products at an acceptable price, or an interruption of supplies from such a supplier could harm our business and prospects.

Computation of Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued. For purposes of this calculation, convertible preferred stock, Common Stock dividends, and warrants and options to acquire Common Stock, are all considered Common Stock equivalents in periods in which they have a dilutive effect and are excluded from this calculation in periods in which these are anti-dilutive to our net loss.

The following table illustrates our computation of loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

	For the Three Months Ended

The following table presents securities that could potentially dilute basic loss per share in the future. For all periods presented, the potentially dilutive securities were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because these securities would have been anti-dilutive to our net loss.

Accounting for Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets, subject to valuation allowances, and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. If substantial changes in the Company’s ownership should occur, as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, there could be sufficient limitations on the amount of net loss carry forwards that could be used to offset future taxable income.

Warrant Derivative Liability

The warrants issued in connection with the registered direct offering of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D Warrants”) are measured at fair value and liability-classified because the Series D Warrants contain “down-round protection” and therefore, do not meet the scope exception under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, (“ASC 815”). Since “down-round protection” is not an input into the calculation of the fair value of the warrants, the warrants cannot be considered indexed to the Company’s own stock which is a requirement for the scope exception as outlined under ASC 815. The estimated fair value of the warrants was determined using the binomial model, resulting in an allocation of the gross proceeds of $283,725 to the warrants issued in the Series D registered direct offering. The fair value will be affected by changes in inputs to that model including our stock price, expected stock price volatility, the contractual term, and the risk-free interest rate. We will continue to classify the fair value of the warrants as a liability until the warrants are exercised, expire or are amended in a way that would no longer require these warrants to be classified as a liability, whichever comes first. The down-round protection for the Series D Warrants survives for the life of the Series D Warrants which ends in May 2017.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We maintain equity compensation plans under which incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options are granted to employees, independent members of our Board of Directors and outside consultants. We recognize equity compensation expense over the requisite service period using the Black-Scholes formula to estimate the fair value of the stock options on the date of grant.

Determining Fair Value of Stock Option Grants

Valuation and Amortization Method - The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model based on certain assumptions. The estimated fair value of employee stock options is amortized to expense using the straight-line method over the vesting period, which is over four years for options granted in 2012 and 2013.

Expected Term - The Company uses the simplified calculation of expected life, as the Company does not currently have sufficient historical exercise data on which to base an estimate of expected term. Using this method, the expected term is determined using the average of the vesting period and the contractual life of the stock options granted.

Expected Volatility - Expected volatility is based on the Company’s historical stock volatility data over the expected term of the award.

PRESSURE BIOSCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Risk-Free Interest Rate - The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation method on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term.

Forfeitures - The Company records stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest. The Company estimated a forfeiture rate of 5% for awards granted based on historical experience and future expectations of options vesting. The Company used this historical rate as our assumption in calculating future stock-based compensation expense.

The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $19,040 and $8,868 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The following table summarizes the effect of this stock-based compensation expense within each of the line items of our costs and expenses within our Consolidated Statements of Operations:

	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Research and development	$	4,836	$	2,618

General and administrative		10,536		3,137
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	19,040	$	8,868

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Due to their short maturities, the carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their fair value. Long-term liabilities are primarily related to liabilities transferred under contractual arrangements with carrying values that approximate fair value.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) as it related to all financial assets and financial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.

The Company generally defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which classifies the inputs used in measuring fair values. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company has determined that it does not have any financial assets measured at fair value and that its financial liabilities are currently all classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The development of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

4)	Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

Our corporate offices are currently located at 14 Norfolk Avenue, South Easton, Massachusetts 02375. In November 2007, we signed a lease agreement commencing in February 2008 pursuant to which we lease approximately 5,500 square feet of office space. We extended the lease term until December 31, 2013 with a monthly payment of $4,800.

Effective January 1, 2010, we entered into a three-year lease agreement with the University of Massachusetts in Boston, pursuant to which we are leasing laboratory and office space on campus at the university for research and development activities. This lease was amended to expire on December 31, 2014. We pay $5,500 per month for the use of these facilities.

Rental costs are expensed as incurred. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we incurred $30,900 and $29,400, respectively, in rent expense for the use of our corporate office and research and development facilities.

Royalty Commitments

In 1996, we acquired our initial equity interest in BioSeq, Inc., which at the time was developing our original pressure cycling technology. BioSeq, Inc. acquired its pressure cycling technology from BioMolecular Assays, Inc. (“BMA”) under a technology transfer and patent assignment agreement. In 1998, we purchased all of the remaining outstanding capital stock of BioSeq, Inc., and at such time, the technology transfer and patent assignment agreement was amended to require us to pay BMA a 5% royalty on our sales of products or services that incorporate or utilize the original pressure cycling technology that BioSeq, Inc. acquired from BMA. We are also required to pay BMA 5% of the proceeds from any sale, transfer or license of all or any portion of the original pressure cycling technology. These payment obligations terminate in 2016. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we incurred $5,680 and $5,288, respectively, in royalty expense associated with our obligation to BMA.

PRESSURE BIOSCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In connection with our acquisition of BioSeq, Inc., we licensed certain limited rights to the original pressure cycling technology back to BMA. This license is non-exclusive and limits the use of the original pressure cycling technology by BMA solely for molecular applications in scientific research and development and in scientific plant research and development. BMA is required to pay us a royalty equal to 20% of any license or other fees and royalties, but not including research support and similar payments, it receives in connection with any sale, assignment, license or other transfer of any rights granted to BMA under the license. BMA must pay us these royalties until the expiration of the patents held by BioSeq, Inc. in 1998, which we anticipate will be in 2016. We have not received any royalty payments from BMA under this license.

Battelle Memorial Institute

In December 2008, we entered into an exclusive patent license agreement with the Battelle Memorial Institute ("Battelle"). The licensed technology is described in the patent application filed by Battelle on July 31, 2008 (US serial number 12/183,219). This application includes subject matter related to a method and a system for improving the analysis of protein samples, including through an automated system utilizing pressure and a pre-selected agent to obtain a digested sample in a significantly shorter period of time than current methods, while maintaining the integrity of the sample throughout the preparatory process. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement we paid Battelle a non-refundable initial fee of $35,000. In addition to royalty payments on net sales on “licensed products”, we are obligated to make minimum royalty payments for each year that we retain the rights outlined in the patent license agreement and we are required to have our first commercial sale of the licensed products within one year following the issuance of the patent covered by the licensed technology. Our only obligation for 2012 was a minimum annual royalty payment of $10,000. Our minimum annual royalty payment for 2013 is $12,500.

Target Discovery Inc.

In March 2010, we signed a strategic product licensing, manufacturing, co-marketing, and collaborative research and development agreement with Target Discovery Inc. (“TDI”). TDI’s Chief Executive Officer is a board member of Pressure BioSciences, Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, we have been licensed by TDI to manufacture and sell a highly innovative line of chemicals used in the preparation of tissues for scientific analysis ("TDI reagents"). The TDI reagents were designed for use in combination with our pressure cycling technology. The companies believe that the combination of PCT and the TDI reagents can fill an existing need in life science research for an automated method for rapid extraction and recovery of intact, functional proteins associated with cell membranes in tissue samples. In April 2012 we announced an expanded license agreement and collaboration with TDI with a first target goal to meet unmet needs in treatment guidance for ovarian cancer. We did not incur a royalty liability on sales through March 31, 2013.

Severance and Change of Control Agreements

Each of Mr. Schumacher, Dr. Ting, Dr. Lazarev, and Dr. Lawrence, executive officers of the Company, is entitled to receive a severance payment if terminated by us without cause. The severance benefits would include a payment in an amount equal to one year of such executive officer’s annualized base salary compensation plus accrued paid time off. Additionally, the officer will be entitled to receive medical and dental insurance coverage for one year following the date of termination.

Each of these executive officers, other than Mr. Schumacher, is entitled to receive a change of control payment in an amount equal to one year of such executive officer’s annualized base salary compensation, accrued paid time off, and medical and dental coverage, in the event of a change of control of the Company. In the case of Mr. Schumacher, this payment would be equal to two years of annualized base salary compensation, accrued paid time off, and two years of medical and dental coverage. The severance payment is meant to induce the executive to become an employee of the Company and to remain in the employ of the Company, in general, and particularly in the occurrence of a change in control.

Promissory Note

On November 4, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with a former placement agent, pursuant to which the Company and the placement agent released each other of their respective obligations under a prior investment banking agreement. In connection with this agreement, the Company issued the placement agent a promissory note with an original principal amount of $150,000 and a maturity date of May 4, 2012. The promissory note was interest free until May 4, 2012. On November 15, 2012, $75,000 of principal and $16,125 of accrued and unpaid interest were converted into 18,225 shares of the Company’s Series G Convertible Preferred Stock. The $75,000 principal balance remaining as of March 31, 2013 earns interest at a rate of 18% per year.

Convertible Debt

Loans in the aggregate amount of $155,000 were received from two individuals in the quarter ended March 31, 2013. We accrued interest at a rate of 6% on the loans. These loans, along with $863,000 of other prior outstanding loans and unpaid interest, were converted to the Company’s Series J Convertible Preferred Shares in February 2013.

We are authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.01. Of the 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock:

1)	20,000 shares have been designated as Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (“Junior A”)

2)	313,960 shares have been designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A”)

8)	10,000 shares have been designated as Series H Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series H”)

9)	6,250 shares have been designated as Series J Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series J”)

As of March 31, 2013, there were no shares of Junior A, and Series A, B, C, E, and H issued and outstanding.

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

In connection with our sale of the Series C Units in April and June of 2011, we agreed that, if we completed an equity financing within 12 months after the initial closing of the Series C Units (the “Next Financing”), then each purchaser of Series C Units would be entitled to exchange all, but not less than all, of his, her or its Series C Units for the equity securities issued in such equity financing (the “Next Financing Securities”); provided that the exchange of the purchaser’s Series C Units for the equity securities is permitted under NASDAQ rules and regulations then in effect. The number of Next Financing Securities into which a purchaser’s Series C Units could be exchanged was determined by dividing (a) the aggregate per unit purchase price at which the Series C Units being exchanged were issued, by (b) the price per Next Financing Security at which such securities were issued in the Next Financing.

On April 5, 2012 the holders of the Series C Units exchanged all of their Series C Units for the units we offered in our February 2012 private placement consisting of shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock (with a warrant to purchase 0.5 shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock purchased in the February 2012 private placement), resulting in an aggregate of 1,372,247 shares of Common Stock and the exchange of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 686,124 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.74 being issued to the holders of Series C Units. The prior warrants issued with Series C were cancelled and no longer qualified as warrant derivative liabilities. In April 2012, the Company issued 36,806 shares of Common Stock as the final payment of dividends to Series C holders for accrued dividends through April 3, 2012. A dividend of $22,322 that had remained outstanding to one shareholder at his request until it can be paid in Common Stock was settled in September 2012 by issuing 27,815 shares of Common Stock.

In connection with the Series C exchange, we calculated the fair value of the 686,124 warrants received, as described above, using a binomial model with the below assumptions.

Assumptions		Series C Exchange Warrants
Contractual life (in months)		64
Expected volatility		106.7%
Risk-free interest rate		0.75%
Exercise price		$0.74
Fair value per warrant		$0.46

In connection with the Series C exchange, a total of 880,980 original Common Stock warrants with a remaining term of 2 years were amended to provide for a term of 5.3 years and a reduced price of $0.74. The value of the modified warrants increased from $132,665 to $308,208. We recorded $185,544 as the excess of fair value of the consideration given to the Series C holders into equity and treated as a deemed dividend.

Series D Convertible Preferred Stock

On November 11, 2011, we completed a registered direct offering, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 843 units for a purchase price of $1,000.00 per unit, resulting in gross proceeds to us of $843,000 (the “Series D Placement”). Each unit (“Series D Unit”) consisted of (i) one share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series D Convertible Preferred Stock”) convertible into 1,538.46 shares of our Common Stock, (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalization, etc.) and (ii) one five-year warrant to purchase approximately 614 shares of our Common Stock at a per share exercise price of $0.81, subject to adjustment as provided in the Warrants (“Series D Warrant”). The Series D Warrants will be exercisable beginning on May 11, 2012 and until the close of business on the fifth anniversary of the initial exercise date.

We engaged an investment banker to assist with the Series D Placement. In connection with the Series D Placement, we paid the investment banker a fee of approximately $67,000 cash.

The proceeds from the sale of each Series D Unit were allocated between the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and the Series D Warrants based on the residual method. The estimated fair value of the Series D Warrants was determined using a binomial formula, resulting in an allocation of the gross proceeds of $283,725 to the total warrants issued. The allocation of the gross proceeds to the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock was $559,275. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, an additional adjustment between Additional Paid in Capital and Accumulated Deficit of $530,140 was recorded to reflect an implicit non-cash dividend related to the allocation of proceeds between the stock and warrants issued. The $530,140 represents the value of the adjustment to additional paid in capital related to the beneficial conversion feature of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. The value adjustment was calculated by subtracting the fair market value of the underlying Common Stock on November 10, 2011 issuable upon conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock from the fair market value of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock as determined when the Company performed a fair market value allocation of the proceeds to the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants. The warrants are recorded as a liability.

The Series D Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s Common Stock, the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series H Convertible Preferred Stock, and Series J Convertible Preferred Stock with respect to payments made upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after payment of the Company’s debts and liabilities, and before any payment is made to the holders of any junior securities, the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock are first entitled to be paid $1,000 per share subject to adjustment for accrued but unpaid dividends.

We may not pay any dividends on shares of Common Stock unless we also pay dividends on the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock in the same form and amount, on an as-if-converted basis, as dividends actually paid on shares of our Common Stock. Except for such dividends, no other dividends may be paid on the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

Each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 2,500 shares of Common Stock (based upon a reset conversion price of $0.40 per share) at any time at the option of the holder, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations, and similar recapitalization transactions (the “Series D Conversion Ratio”). Subject to certain exceptions, if the Company issues any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents at a per share price that is lower than the conversion price of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, the conversion price will be reduced to the per share price at which such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents are issued. Each share of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Series D Conversion Ratio then in effect if, after six months from the closing of the Series D Placement, the Common Stock trades on the NASDAQ Capital Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded) at a price equal to at least 300% of the then effective Series D Convertible Preferred Stock conversion price for 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days with each trading day having a volume of at least $50,000. Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder’s Series D Convertible Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

In addition, in the event we consummate a merger or consolidation with or into another person or other reorganization event in which our shares of Common Stock are converted or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, or we sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets or we or another person acquire 50% or more of our outstanding shares of Common Stock, then following such event, the holders of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive upon conversion of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property which the holders of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock would have received had they converted the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.

If, within 12 months of the initial issuance of the Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, we issue any Common Stock, Common Stock equivalents, indebtedness or any combination thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), the holders of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to participate on a pro-rata basis in up to 50% of such Subsequent Financing.

Series D Warrants

The Series D Warrants originally had an exercise price equal to $0.81 per share of Common Stock. The number of Series D Warrants increased by 530,406 to a total of 1,047,875 and each Series D Warrant currently has an exercise price equal to $0.40 per share of Common Stock. These adjustments were made in connection with our April 2012 registered direct offering in accordance with the Series D Warrant. The Series D Warrants are exercisable beginning on the six month anniversary of the date of issuance and expire five years from the initial exercise date. The Series D Warrants permit the holder to conduct a “cashless exercise” at any time a registration statement, or the prospectus contained therein, is not available for the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series D Warrant, and under certain circumstances at the expiration of the Series D Warrants. The exercise price and/or number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series D Warrants are subject to adjustment for certain stock dividends, stock splits or similar capital reorganizations, as set forth in the Warrants. The exercise price and/or number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Series D Warrants are also subject to adjustment in the event that we issue any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents at a per share price that is lower than the exercise price for the Series D Warrants then in effect. Upon any such issuance, subject to certain exceptions, the exercise price will be reduced to the per share price at which such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents are issued and number of Series D Warrant shares issuable thereunder shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, shall be equal to the aggregate exercise price prior to such adjustment. Unless waived under certain circumstance by the holder of a Series D Warrant, such holder may not exercise the Series D Warrant if upon such exercise the holder’s beneficial ownership of the Company’s Common Stock would exceed certain thresholds. In the event we consummate a merger or consolidation with or into another person or other reorganization event in which our shares of Common Stock are converted or exchanged for securities, cash or other property, or we sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets or we or another person acquire 50% or more of our outstanding shares of Common Stock, then following such event, the holders of the Series D Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Series D Warrants the same kind and amount of securities, cash or property which the holders would have received had they exercised the Series D Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction.

Series E Convertible Preferred Stock

On April 9, 2012, we completed a registered direct offering with Ironridge Global IV Ltd. (“Ironridge”), pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 500 shares of our Series E Convertible Preferred Stock to Ironridge for a purchase price of $1,000 per share or an aggregate purchase price of $500,000 (“Series E Preferred Stock”). Each share of Series E Preferred Stock was convertible into approximately 980 shares of our Common Stock. The Series E Preferred Stock was entitled to a yearly dividend at a rate of 10.5% per year, subject to a credit risk and make-whole adjustment, and was payable in cash or shares of Common Stock at our election. Under certain conditions and subject to certain limitations, we could have required Ironridge to convert their Series E Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock. In connection with this registered direct offering, our investment banker received a fee of $40,000. The make-whole dividends were payable any time after the closing on April 9, 2012 at the option of the holder; therefore, we recognized the full value of $262,500 as a current liability and charged this amount immediately to accumulated deficit. Ironridge converted all 500 shares of Series E Preferred Stock into 490,196 common shares in 2012.

The Series E Preferred Stock ranked senior to the Company’s Common Stock for so long as at least 250 shares of Series E Preferred Stock remained outstanding and pari passu thereafter and junior to the Series D Preferred Stock with respect to payments made upon liquidation, winding up or dissolution. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, after payment of the Company’s debts and liabilities, and before any payment was made to the holders of any junior securities, the holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock were first entitled to be paid $1,000 per share subject to adjustment for accrued but unpaid dividends.

We were not allowed to pay any dividends on shares of Common Stock so long as any shares of Series E Preferred Stock were outstanding.

At our option, each share of Series E Preferred Stock could have been converted into shares of Common Stock at the Series E Conversion Ratio then in effect if, the Common Stock trades on the OTC Capital Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the Common Stock was then traded) at a price equal to at least $2.00 for 20 out of 25 consecutive trading days. Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of the Series E Preferred Stock, such holder’s Series E Preferred Stock may not have been converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

Subject to the rights of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock, for so long as at least 250 shares of Series E Preferred Stock remained outstanding, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary (each a “Liquidation Event”), after payment or provision for payment of debts and other liabilities of the Company, the holders of Series E Preferred Stock would have been entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders an amount with respect to each share of Series E Preferred Stock equal to $1,000, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon (the “Series E Liquidation Value”), before any distribution or payment would have been made to the holders of Common Stock. Subject to the rights of the holders of Series D Preferred Stock, at any time that fewer than 250 shares of Series E Preferred Stock remained outstanding, upon the occurrence of any Liquidation Event, after payment or provision for payment of debts and other liabilities of the Company, pari passu with any distribution or payment made to the holders of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the holders of Series E Preferred Stock would have been entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders the Series E Liquidation Value. For so long as at least 250 shares of Series E Preferred Stock remained outstanding, if, upon the occurrence of any Liquidation Event, the amounts payable with respect to the shares of Series E Preferred Stock are not paid in full, the holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock would have shared equally and ratably with each other in any distribution of assets of the Company in proportion to the Series E Liquidation Value, if any, to which each such holder was entitled, before any distribution or payment shall have been made to holders of Common Stock. At any time that fewer than 250 shares of Series E Preferred Stock remained outstanding, if, upon the occurrence of any Liquidation Event, the amounts payable with respect to the shares of Series E Preferred Stock were not paid in full, the holders of shares of Series E Preferred Stock would have received the Series E Liquidation Value per share of Series E Preferred Stock on a proportionate and pari passu basis with the holders of Common Stock.

The holders of Series E Preferred Stock were not entitled to vote on any matters presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), except that the holders of Series E Preferred Stock may have voted separately as a class on any matters that would (i) amend our Restated Articles of Organization, as amended, in a manner that adversely affects the rights of the Series E Preferred Stock, (ii) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights of the Series E Preferred Stock or alter or amend the certificate of designation, (iii) authorize or create any class of shares ranking as to dividends, redemption or distribution of assets upon liquidation senior to, or otherwise pari passu with, the Series E Preferred Stock, or (iv) increase the number of authorized shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

Series G Convertible Preferred Stock

On July 6 and November 15, 2012, we completed a private placement, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 145,320 units for a purchase price of $5.00 per unit (the “Series G Purchase Price”), resulting in gross proceeds to us of $726,600 (the “Series G Private Placement”). Each unit (“Series G Unit”) consists of (i) one share of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “Series G Preferred Stock”) convertible into 10 shares of our Common Stock, (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalization, etc.) and (ii) a three-year warrant to purchase 5 shares of our Common Stock at a per share exercise price of $0.50 (the “Series G Warranst”). The Series G Warrants will be exercisable until the close of business on the third anniversary of the applicable closing date of the Series G Private Placement. Of the $726,600 invested in the Series G Private Placement, $31,100 was received in cash and $695,500 was from the conversion of outstanding indebtedness and accrued board of directors’ fees.

Each share of Series G Preferred Stock will receive a cumulative dividend at the annual rate of (i) four percent (4%) on those shares of Series G Preferred Stock purchased from the Company by an individual purchaser with an aggregate investment of less than $100,000, (ii) six percent (6%) on those shares of Series G Preferred Stock purchased from the Company by an individual purchaser with an aggregate investment of at least $100,000 but less than $250,000, and (iii) twelve percent (12%) on those shares of Series G Preferred Stock purchased from the Company by an individual purchaser with an aggregate investment of at least $250,000. Dividends accruing on the Series G Preferred Stock shall accrue from day to day until, and shall be paid within fifteen (15) days of, the first anniversary of, the original issue date of the Series G Preferred Stock; provided, however, if any shares of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock are outstanding at such time, payment of the accrued dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock shall be deferred until no such shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock remain outstanding. The Company may pay accrued dividends on the Series G Preferred Stock in cash or in shares of its Common Stock equal to the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock as reported by the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded) for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the Series G’s first anniversary.

At the election of the Company and upon required advanced notice, each share of Series G Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Ratio then in effect: (i) if, after 6 months from the original issuance date of the Series G Preferred Stock, the Common Stock trades on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded) at a price equal to at least $0.75, for 7 out of 10 consecutive trading days with average daily trading volume of at least 10,000 shares, (ii) on or after the first anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series G Preferred Stock or (iii) upon completion of a firm-commitment underwritten registered public offering by the Company at a per share price equal to at least $0.75, with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of not less than $2.5 million. Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of the Series G Preferred Stock, such holder’s Series G Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

The holders of Series G Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on any matters presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), except as required by law.

Series G Warrants

The Series G Warrants issued in the Series G Private Placement have an exercise price equal to $0.50 per share, with a term expiring on July 6, 2015. The Series G Warrants also permit the holder to conduct a “cashless exercise” at any time the holder of the Series G Warrant is an affiliate of the Company. The exercise price and/or number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series G Warrants will be subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or similar capital reorganizations, as set forth in the Series G Warrants.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Series G Warrants, at any time commencing six months from the closing date the Company has the right to call for cancellation of the Series G Warrants if the volume weighted average price of its Common Stock on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which our Common Stock is then traded) equals or exceeds three times the per share exercise price of the Warrants for either (i) 10 consecutive trading days or (ii) 15 out of 25 consecutive trading days.

In connection with our sale of Series G Units, we agreed that for each share of Series G Preferred Stock purchased by an investor, the exercise price of one warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, previously issued to the investor in prior offerings by the Company to purchase Common Stock of the Company held of record by such investor, shall be reduced to $0.60 per share and will remain at such reduced exercise price until the expiration date of the warrants.

In connection with the sale of Series G Units, we treated the reduction in exercise price as a warrant amendment and calculated the fair value of 1,495,022 warrants with the reduced exercise price of $0.60, as described above, using the Black-Scholes model with the below assumptions. The Company has determined that the fair value of the amended warrants increased as compared with the fair value of the original warrants immediately prior to amendment.

In connection with the warrant modification, we calculated the fair value of the warrants, as described above, using a Black-Scholes model with the below assumptions:

Assumptions	Series A	Series A	Series B	Series C	Aug/Sep 2011	Feb 2012
		(Affiliates)			Notes	PIPE
Contractual life, in years	4.1	3.1	3.1	5.1	2.1	4.6

Fair value per warrant	$0.03	$0.03	$0.03	$0.03	$0.03	$0.03

We recorded an increased incremental value of $5,347 for the warrant amendment and treated the excess of fair value of the warrants as a deemed dividend.

Series J Convertible Preferred Stock

On February 6, and March 28, 2013, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase with various individuals pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 4,650 units for a purchase price of $400.00 per unit (the “Purchase Price”), or an aggregate Purchase Price of $1,859,700. These are the first two tranches of a $2.0 million private placement. One or more additional tranches in the Private Placement may close on or before May 31, 2013. Each unit purchased in the initial tranche consists of (i) one share of a newly created series of preferred stock, designated Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series J Convertible Preferred Stock”), convertible into 1,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share and (ii) a warrant to purchase 1,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to $0.40 per share, with a term expiring on February 6, 2016. Of the $1,859,700 invested in the initial two tranches of the Private Placement, $746,000 was received in cash and $1,113,700 was from the conversion of outstanding indebtedness, interest and accrued board of directors’ fees. The Company incurred $24,405 of legal expense in conjunction with this private placement. The purchasers in the initial tranche of the private placement consisted of certain existing and new investors in the Company as well as all of the members of the Company’s Board of Directors.

From the date of issuance of any shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and until the earlier of the first anniversary of such date, the voluntary conversion of any shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, or the date of any mandatory conversion of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, dividends will accrue on each share of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock at an annual rate of (i) four percent (4%) of the Purchase Price on those shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock purchased from the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by an individual purchaser who purchased from the Company shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock with an aggregate Purchase Price of less than $250,000, and (ii) six percent (6%) of the Purchase Price on those shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock purchased from the Company pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by an individual purchaser who purchased shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock with an aggregate purchase price of at least $250,000. Dividends accruing on the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock shall accrue from day to day until the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of issuance of such shares of Series J Convertible Stock, the voluntary conversion of any shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, or the date of any mandatory conversion of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, and shall be paid, as applicable, within fifteen (15) days of the first anniversary of the original issue date of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, within five (5) days of the voluntary conversion of shares of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, or within five (5) days of the mandatory conversion of shares of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company may pay accrued dividends on the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company, in shares of its Common Stock in accordance with a specified formula.

Each share of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 1,000 shares of Common Stock at the option of the holder on or after the six-month anniversary of the issuance of such share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and similar transactions (the “Conversion Ratio”). Unless waived under certain circumstances by the holder of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, such holder’s shares of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock may not be converted if upon such conversion the holder’s beneficial ownership would exceed certain thresholds.

At the election of the Company and upon required advance notice, each share of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock at the Conversion Ratio then in effect: (i) on or after the six-month anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock, the Common Stock trades on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded) at a price per share equal to at least $0.80 for 7 out of 10 consecutive trading days with average daily trading volume of at least 50,000 shares, (ii) on the first anniversary of the original issuance date of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock or (iii) within three days of the completion of a firm-commitment underwritten registered public offering by the Company at a per share price equal to at least $0.80, with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of not less than $2.5 million.

The proceeds from the sale of each Series J Unit were allocated between the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and the Series J Warrants based on the relative-fair value method. The estimated fair value of the Series J Warrants was determined using a Black Scholes formula, resulting in an allocation of the gross proceeds of $807,926 to the total warrants issued. The allocation of the gross proceeds to the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock was $1,027,369, net of $24,405 in legal costs. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, an additional adjustment between Additional Paid in Capital and Accumulated Deficit of $582,548 was recorded to reflect an implicit non-cash dividend related to the allocation of proceeds between the stock and warrants issued. The $582,548 represents the value of the adjustment to additional paid in capital related to the beneficial conversion feature of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock. The value adjustment was calculated by subtracting the fair market value of the underlying Common Stock on February 6 and March 28, 2013 issuable upon conversion of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock from the fair market value of the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock as determined when the Company performed a fair market value allocation of the proceeds to the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants.

In connection with the Series J warrants, we calculated the fari value of the warrants received as described above using the Black Scholes formula with the below assumptions.

Assumptions	Series J warrants February 6, 2013	Series J warrants March 28, 2013

The holders of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on any matters presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting), except as required by law.

Series J Warrants

The Warrants issued in the initial two tranches of the Private Placement have an exercise price equal to $0.40 per share, with a term expiring on February 6, and March 28, 2016. Warrants issued in subsequent closings will have an exercise price equal to one one-thousandth of the per unit purchase price for units issued in the respective closing. The Warrants also permit the holder to conduct a “cashless exercise” at any time the holder of the Warrant is an affiliate of the Company. The exercise price and/or number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants will be subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or similar capital reorganizations, as set forth in the Warrant agreement.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Warrants, at any time commencing six months from the closing date of the sale of Units under the Securities Purchase Agreement the Company has the right to call the Warrants for cancellation if the volume weighted average price of its Common Stock on the OTC QB Market (or other primary trading market or exchange on which the Common Stock is then traded) equals or exceeds three times the per share exercise price of the Warrants for either (i) 10 consecutive trading days or (ii) 15 out of 25 consecutive trading days.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company has agreed that, if, at any time after February 1, 2014, the Company files a Registration Statement relating to an offering of equity securities of the Company (the “Registration Statement”), subject to certain exceptions, including a Registration Statement relating solely to an offering or sale of securities having an aggregate public offering price of less than $5,000,000, the Company shall include in the Registration Statement the resale of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants. Shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of Series J Convertible Preferred Stock or in payment of the dividend on the Series J Convertible Preferred Stock will not be registered and will not be subject to registration rights. This right is subject to customary conditions and procedures.

Sale of Common Stock

On February 7, 2012, we completed a private placement with 7 accredited investors, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 971,867 shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value, resulting in gross proceeds to us of $800,000 (the “Private Placement”). The price per unit was $0.8025 for units consisting of 789,350 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 394,677 shares of Common Stock, and was $0.9125 for units consisting of the remaining 182,517 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 91,260 shares of Common Stock. Of the $800,000 invested in the Private Placement, $412,453 was received in cash and $387,547 was from the conversion of outstanding principal and interest on convertible promissory notes issued by us in 2011.

Each unit consists of one share of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase one-half share of Common Stock. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years, commencing on August 7, 2012, at an exercise price of $0.74 per share for the purchasers of the 789,350 shares, and $0.85 per share for the purchasers of the 182,517 shares. The warrants permit the holder to conduct a “cashless exercise” at any time the holder is an affiliate.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In some cases, forward-looking statements are identified by terms such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “would”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “projects”, “predicts”, “potential”, and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements include, without limitation, statements regarding:

-	our need for, and our ability to raise additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms, if at all;
-	our belief that we have sufficient liquidity to finance normal operations until the end of May 2013;
-	our need to take additional cost reduction measures, cease operations or sell our operating assets, if we are unable to obtain sufficient additional financing in the future;
-	the amount of cash necessary to operate our business;
-	the amount of grant revenue and anticipated uses of grant revenue in future periods;
-	our plans and expectations with respect to our pressure cycling technology (PCT) operations;
-	the potential applications for PCT;
-	the expected expenses, benefits and results from our research and development efforts;
-	the expected benefits and results from our collaboration efforts, strategic alliances and joint ventures;
-	the expected increase in number of PCT units installed and the increase in revenues from sale of consumable products and extended service contracts;
-	the potential size of the market for biological sample preparation;
-	general economic conditions; and
-	the anticipated future financial performance and business operations of our Company.

These forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Also, these forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this Report. Except as otherwise required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement contained in this Report to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any of our forward-looking statements are based or to conform to actual results. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. You should read this section in combination with the section entitled Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

OVERVIEW

We have experienced negative cash flows from operations with respect to our pressure cycling technology business since our inception. As of March 31, 2013, we did not have adequate working capital resources to satisfy our current liabilities and as a result we have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Based on our current projections, including equity financing completed subsequent to March 31, 2013, we believe our current cash resources will enable us to extend our cash resources to fund normal operations until the end of May 2013. Please see Note 6, Subsequent Events.

We need substantial additional capital to fund normal operations in periods beyond the end of May 2013. If we are able to obtain additional capital or otherwise increase our revenues, we may increase spending in specific research and development applications and engineering projects and may hire additional sales personnel or invest in targeted marketing programs. In the event that we are unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, we will likely be required to cease our operations, pursue a plan to sell our operating assets, or otherwise modify our business strategy, which could materially harm our future business prospects.

We hold 14 United States and 10 foreign patents covering multiple applications of PCT in the life sciences field. Our pressure cycling technology employs a unique approach that we believe has the potential for broad use in a number of established and emerging life sciences areas, including;

-	sample preparation for genomic, proteomic, and small molecule studies;
-	pathogen inactivation;
-	protein purification;
-	control of chemical (particularly enzymatic) reactions; and
-	Immunodiagnostics (clinical laboratory testing).

We reported a number of accomplishments in the first four months of 2013.

●	On April 4, 2013 we announced that further advances had been made in the development of an improved method for rape kit sample testing using PBI’s PCT Platform by Dr. Bruce McCord and his team at the International Forensic Research Institute of Florida International University.

●

On March 19, 2013 we announced that the use and advantages of PBI’s PCT Platform had been highlighted in cancer, stem cell, and heart disease studies at an important protein research conference. We believe that the FDA data indicate that PCT can be used to extract proteins from stem cells with consistency and quality; the Johns Hopkins data indicate that combining PCT with heat might be a way to recover significantly more proteins from FFPE tissues compared to standard (heat) methods, especially membrane proteins (this could be very important with scientists looking for disease biomarkers); and the ETH Zurich data might be significant for extracting proteins from small, needle biopsy samples, something that we believe is vitally needed today yet not well satisfied at the present time, and (we believe) a significant market opportunity.

●

On February 12, 2013, we announced that Dr. Mickey Urdea had been appointed to the Board of Directors of PBI. Dr. Urdea is one of the most well-known entrepreneurs and leaders in biotechnology today, having founded two successful companies (Halteres Associates and Tethys Bioscience) over the past ten years. Earlier in his career, Dr. Urdea led the infectious diseases R&D groups at Chiron Corporation and Bayer Diagnostics. He has also been on the Scientific Advisory Boards of numerous life sciences companies and was a member of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Diagnostic Forum.

We recognized revenue of $370,737 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $305,661 during the three months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $65,076 or 21%. This increase was due to increased revenues across both of our primary product lines, as noted below.

PCT Products, Services, Other. Revenue from the sale of PCT products and services was $221,569 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $164,772 during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Sales of PCT Instruments and PCT Shredder Kits were $135,939 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $94,842 during the same period in the prior year, an increase of approximately 43%.

Grant Revenue. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recorded $149,168 of grant revenue compared to $140,889 in the three months ended March 31, 2012. In February 2013, we began to work on a Phase I grant received from the National Institutes of Health, or NIH, to help fund the development of a high pressure-based system to improve the extraction of DNA for next generation sequencing platforms. We also continued to work on a Phase II grant received in October 2011 from the Department of Defense, or DOD, to fund the development of a PCT-based system to improve the processing of pathogenic organisms.

Cost of PCT Products and Services

The cost of PCT products and services was $104,544 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to $78,194 for the comparable period in 2012. Gross margins were 53% for the period ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012. We sold a partially depreciated machine in 2012 which contributed to the gross margin in that period.

Research and Development

Research and development expenditures were $246,458 during the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $271,611 in the same period in 2012. Research and development expenses decreased due to a reduction in spending for outside services and employee related expenses, as compared to the prior year period. Research and development expense in the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 included $4,836 and $2,618 of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense, respectively.

Selling and Marketing

Selling and marketing expenses decreased to $193,900 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $238,092 for the comparable period in 2012. This decrease was primarily due to employee related savings from a smaller headcount partially offset by an increase in tradeshow and travel related expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, selling and marketing expense included $3,668 and $3,113 of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense, respectively.

General and Administrative

General and administrative costs totaled $550,859 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $682,346 for the comparable period in 2012. In the prior year period we incurred increased audit fees relating to accounting matters and legal fees in connection with amendments to our Registration Statement on Form S-1. The Form S-1 was subsequently withdrawn. We also incurred higher investor relations costs in the prior year. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, general and administrative expense included $10,536 and $3,137 of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense, respectively.

Operating Loss

Our operating loss was $725,024 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $964,582 for the comparable period in 2012. The decreased operating loss resulted from higher sales while, at the same time, lower operating expenses.

Other income (expense), net

Interest (Expense) Income

Interest expense totaled $8,902 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to interest expense of $56,313 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. In the prior year period we amortized approximately $46,000 of imputed interest against the debt discount relating to warrants issued with convertible debt which was subsequently repaid or converted to Company stock.

Change in fair value of warrant derivative liability

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recorded a non-cash charge of $45,445 for warrant revaluation expense in our consolidated statements of operations due to an increase in the fair value of the warrant liability related to warrants issued in our Series D private placement. This increase in fair value was primarily due to the increase in price of the Company’s Common Stock on March 31, 2013 as compared to the price on December 31, 2012. The components for determining the fair value of the warrants are contained in the table in Note 3 of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Net Loss

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we recorded a net loss to common shareholders of $1,394,090 or $(0.11) per share, as compared to a net loss to common shareholders of $1,087,321 or $(0.14) per share in the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease in the loss per share is attributable to additional common shares outstanding due primarily to the issuance of Common Stock in exchange for the Company’s Series C and Series E Convertible Preferred Stock in 2012.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

As of March 31, 2013, we did not have adequate working capital resources to satisfy our current liabilities. Based on our current projections, including the proceeds from our equity financing described in Note 6 completed subsequent to March 31, 2013, we believe our current cash resources will enable us to extend our cash resources to fund normal operations until the end of May 2013.

We will need substantial additional capital to fund our operations in periods beyond May 2013. In the event that we are unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, or at all, there is substantial doubt that we can continue as a going concern. We will likely be required to cease our operations, pursue a plan to sell our operating assets, or otherwise modify our business strategy, which could materially harm our future business prospects.

Net cash used in operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $617,494 as compared to $584,737 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The increase in cash used in operations in 2013 as compared to 2012 is principally due to a decrease in our accounts payable balance of $140,510 in the period ending March 31, 2013 as compared to an increase in accounts payable in the prior year period.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was not significant.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $785,477 as compared to $377,454 for the same period in the prior year. The cash from financing activities in the period ending March 31, 2013 includes $155,000 from convertible debt and $721,595 in proceeds, net of $24,405 in legal fees, from the first two rounds of our Series J Convertible Preferred Stock offering.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act of 1934 filings are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management was necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of March 31, 2013, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Our conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2013 is due to our continued limited resources of adequate personnel to prepare and file reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 within the required periods and the continued presence of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. These material weaknesses are the following:

●

A lack of sufficient segregation of duties. Specifically, this material weakness is such that the design over these areas relies primarily on detective controls and could be strengthened by adding preventative controls to properly safeguard company assets.

●

A lack of sufficient personnel in the accounting function due to our limited resources with appropriate skills, training and experience to perform the review processes to ensure the complete and proper application of generally accepted accounting principles, particularly as it relates to valuation of warrants and other complex debt /equity transactions. Specifically, this material weakness led to segregation of duties issues and resulted in audit adjustments to the annual consolidated financial statements and revisions to related disclosures, valuation of warrants and other equity transactions.

We continue to plan to remediate those material weaknesses as follows:

●

Improve the effectiveness of the accounting group by continuing to augment our existing resources with additional consultants or employees to improve segregation procedures and to assist in the analysis and recording of complex accounting transactions. We plan to mitigate the segregation of duties issues by hiring an independent consultant once we generate significantly more revenue or raise significant additional working capital.

●

Improve segregation procedures by strengthening cross approval of various functions including quarterly internal audit procedures where appropriate.

During the period covered by this Report, we implemented and performed additional substantive procedures, such as supervisory review of work papers and consistent use of financial models used in equity valuations, to ensure our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three month period ended March 31, 2013, are fairly stated in all material respects in accordance with GAAP. We have not, however, been able to fully remediate the material weaknesses due to our limited financial resources. Our remediation efforts are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

Except as described above, there have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1a. RISK FACTORS

Factors that could cause or contribute to differences in our future financial and operating results include those discussed in the risk factors set forth in Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. The risks described in our Form 10-K and this Report are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we do not currently consider significant may also have an adverse effect on us. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition could suffer.
