Current Report on Form 8-K

TurboChef Receives Additional NASDAQ Staff Determination Notice

Atlanta, Georgia, May 15, 2007 - TurboChef Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: OVEN) today announced that it received as expected a Nasdaq Staff Determination letter on May 14, 2007 of an additional basis for delisting the Company’s securities from The Nasdaq Stock Market because of the Company’s failure to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, as required by Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14). The Company has a scheduled hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the “Panel”) on May 17, 2007, to review the Staff Determination set forth in its letter of March 28, 2007, regarding the Company’s inability to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as this most recent additional determination. There can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company’s request for continued listing, but until the Panel’s decision, the Company’s shares will remain listed for trading on The Nasdaq Global Market.

As previously reported, the Company is conducting a review of its stock option grants and practices in response to a letter from the Securities and Exchange Commission requesting information concerning the Company's stock option grants for the period from January 1, 1997 through the present. The Company is working diligently to complete the review of option grants and practices in a timely manner and continues to cooperate fully with the Commission staff and respond to the staff's request. The Company will not be in a position to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, or its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, until as soon as practicable after completion of the review.
