     On May 12, 2009, Inverness Medical Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Inverness”), issued its 9.00% senior subordinated notes due 2016 (the “Notes”), which were guaranteed (the “Guarantees”) by certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Original Guarantors”) pursuant to an indenture dated May 12, 2009 between Inverness and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated May 12, 2009 among Inverness, the Trustee and the Original Guarantors, and as further supplemented by a second supplemental indenture dated June 9, 2009 among Inverness, the Trustee, the Original Guarantors and Matria of New York, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Inverness (“Matria”), as guarantor (together, the “Indenture”). The Notes, the Guarantees, and the Guarantee of Matria (the “Matria Guarantee”) are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and were registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form 8-A filed on May 12, 2009, with respect to the Notes and the Guarantees, and a registration statement on Form 8-A filed on June 9, 2009, with respect to the Matria Guarantee. The terms of the Indenture provide that certain subsidiaries of Inverness must become guarantors of the Notes. On August 4, 2009, Inverness, the Trustee, the Original Guarantors, Matria and the registrants, wholly owned subsidiaries of Inverness, entered into a third supplemental indenture whereby the registrants agreed to guarantee the obligations of Inverness under the Notes on the same basis as the other Original Guarantors and Matria.
