Item 2.05.  Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On July 11, 2013, the Board of Directors of JBI, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a reduction in force of approximately 15 employees, constituting approximately 25% of the Company’s workforce, whose employment will be terminated as part of an overall plan to reduce the Company’s cost structure.  The Company estimates it will incur approximately $40,000 in total restructuring expenses, all of which is expected to result in future cash expenditures. The Company expects to recognize these restructuring charges of approximately $40,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2013. These costs consist of severance and other employee-related costs.

This current report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including the expected financial effect of the actions described herein and related estimate of costs. Statements that may be considered forward-looking include statements incorporating terms such as "expects," "believes," "intends," "estimates", "forecasts," "anticipates," "may," "should", and similar terms that relate to future events, performance, or results of the Company. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the historical experience of the Company and management's present expectations or projections, including unexpected adjustments made in connection with the preparation and review of the Company's financial statements. Management believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and management undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.
