As previously disclosed, the Merger Agreement provides that Xtrana Sub will be merged with and into Alpha Innotech, with Alpha Innotech continuing after the merger as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Xtrana (the "Merger"). This third amendment extended the date after which either party can terminate the Merger Agreement, and abandon the Merger, from September 30, 2005 to October 14, 2005. A copy of the text of the amendment to the Merger Agreement is filed as Exhibit 2.1.3 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. There are no material relationships between Xtrana and Alpha Innotech, other than in respect of the Merger Agreement and related documents. Xtrana Sub is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Xtrana, formed solely for the purpose of effecting the Merger. In connection with the Merger, Xtrana has filed a definitive proxy statement for the annual meeting of stockholders with the Securities and Exchange Commission and mailed a copy of the proxy statement to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 12, 2005. The stockholder meeting is scheduled to take place on October 3, 2005, as described in the proxy statement. Investors and security holders are advised to read the definitive proxy statement because it contains important information about the proposed merger. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of the proxy statement and other documents filed by Xtrana with the Securities and Exchange Commission at the Securities and Exchange Commission's web site at http://www.sec.gov.
