Safe Harbor Statement / Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following constitutes a "Safe Harbor" statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: This presentation
contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Important factors that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements include risks and uncertainties relating to: the need to
develop new products and adapt to significant technological change; implementation of strategies for improving growth; general
economic conditions including economic conditions in the countries in which Thermo Fisher and Life Technologies sell products,
and related uncertainties; dependence on customers' capital spending policies and government funding policies; the effect of
exchange rate fluctuations on international operations; the effect of healthcare reform legislation; use and protection of intellectual
property; the effect of changes in governmental regulations; and the effect of laws and regulations governing government contracts,
as well as the possibility that expected benefits related to the transaction may not materialize as expected; the transaction not
being timely completed, if completed at all; prior to the completion of the transaction, Life Technologies’ business experiencing
disruptions due to transaction-related uncertainty or other factors making it more difficult to maintain relationships with employees,
licensees, other business partners or governmental entities; difficulty retaining certain key employees; and the parties being unable
to successfully implement integration strategies or to achieve expected synergies and operating efficiencies within the expected
time-frames or at all.  Additional important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such
forward-looking statements are set forth in Thermo Fisher’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2012, which is on file with the SEC and available in the “Investors” section of Thermo Fisher’s website under the heading “SEC
Filings,” and in Life Technologies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and recent current
report on form 8-K, each of which are on file with the SEC and available in the “Investor Relations” section of Life Technologies’
website under the heading “SEC Filings”.  While Thermo Fisher or Life Technologies may elect to update forward-looking
statements at some point in the future, each of Thermo Fisher and Life Technologies specifically disclaims any obligation to do so,
even if estimates change and, therefore, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing either of Thermo
Fisher’s or Life Technologies’ respective views as of any date subsequent to today.
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use
certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted EPS, adjusted operating income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income
and adjusted ROIC, which exclude restructuring and other costs/income and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.
Adjusted EPS, adjusted net income and adjusted ROIC also exclude certain other gains and losses, tax provisions/benefits related
to the previous items, benefits from tax credit carryforwards, the impact of significant tax audits or events and discontinued
operations. We exclude the above items because they are outside of our normal operations and/or, in certain cases, are difficult to
forecast accurately for future periods.  We also use the non-GAAP measure, free cash flow, which excludes operating cash flows
from discontinued operations and deducts net capital expenditures. We believe that the use of non-GAAP measures helps
investors to gain a better understanding of our core operating results and future prospects, consistent with how management
measures and forecasts the company's performance, especially when comparing such results to previous periods or forecasts.
