| (1) | On November 21, 2008, the issuer was acquired by Invitrogen Corporation (renamed Life Technologies Corporation) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of June 11, 2008 (as amended, the "merger agreement"). All shares of the issuer's Applied Biosystems Group common stock ("ABI stock") held by the reporting person at the time of the merger were exchanged for merger consideration pursuant to the merger agreement. The merger consideration consists of the right to receive, at the election of each stockholder, either (1) $17.10 in cash and 0.4543 of a share of Life Technologies common stock (plus an additional cash payment of $1.05 per share paid as a merger consideration adjustment due to the trading price of ABI stock during a specified period of time prior to the merger), (2) $38 in cash, or (3) 0.8261 shares of Life Technologies common stock (plus an additional cash payment of $1.91 paid as a merger consideration adjustment due to the trading price of ABI stock during a specified period of time prior to the merger), in the case of (2) and (3) subject to proration in accordance with the merger agreement. |
| (2) | Pursuant to the merger agreement, upon completion of the merger each outstanding award of options to purchase shares of ABI stock was converted into an award to purchase shares of Life Technologies Corporation common stock. Each new stock option award became an award to purchase shares of Life Technologies common stock in an amount equal to the product of (x) 0.8698, multiplied by (y) the number of shares of ABI stock underlying the stock option award outstanding as of closing (rounded down to the nearest share). The exercise price per share of each converted option is equal to the exercise price per share of the option prior to conversion divided by the exchange ratio of 0.8698 (rounded up to the nearest cent). |
| (3) | All of these ABI stock options were fully vested and free from all restrictions upon the completion of the merger described in Note 1 above. Some of the options held by the reporting person and reported in Table II had vested at various dates prior to the merger. Pursuant to the merger agreement, options that had not vested prior to the merger became fully vested upon completion of the merger. |
