The extension was made in response to a written request from Biosite received today. The extension changes the expiration of the tender offer from the end of the day at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Friday, April 27, 2007, to the end of the day at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on Wednesday, May 2, 2007. Under the terms of the merger agreement between Beckman Coulter and Biosite, Beckman Coulter has the right to extend the expiration of the tender offer further. In addition, Beckman Coulter must extend that expiration deadline further if requested to do so by Biosite.

As of 5 p.m., New York City time, on April 27, 2007, approximately 60,000 Shares have been tendered and not withdrawn.
