   Additional Informational Sessions on Terms of Tender Offer

On Monday, June 2, 2008, you received emails announcing our Offer to Amend or Replace Eligible Options and providing a personalized election form. These messages relate to our tender offer to address certain potentially adverse tax consequences associated with discounted stock options held by eligible Quest employees.

Last week, we held informational sessions to help you understand the material terms of the tender offer. We understand that not everyone was able to attend the meetings at the times scheduled.

We will be holding two additional informational sessions for our U.S. employees to help explain the material terms of the tender offer.

Date and Time

The informational sessions will be held at 9:30 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time on both Wednesday, June 18, 2008 and Friday, June 20, 2008.

Location and Access

The informational sessions will be conducted via live webcast using Microsoft Office Live Meeting.
