The risks included above are not exhaustive. Other factors that could adversely affect the combined company's business and prospects are described in the filings made by the Company with the SEC.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Hologic has presented the following non-gaap financial measures in this presentation: adjusted revenues; adjusted gross margins; adjusted operating expenses; adjusted pre-tax income; adjusted net income; and adjusted EPS. Hologic defines its non-gaap adjusted revenues to include contingent revenue earned under the Novartis collaboration post-acquisition which was eliminated under purchase accounting. Hologic defines its non-gaap adjusted gross margins, adjusted operating expenses,, adjusted pre-tax income and adjusted EPS to exclude, as applicable: (i) the amortization of intangible assets; (ii) acquisition-related charges and effects, such as charges for contingent consideration (comprised of (a) adjustments for changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities initially recorded as part of the purchase price of an acquisition as required by GAAP, and (b) contingent consideration that is tied to continuing employment of the former shareholders and employees which is recorded as compensation expense), transaction costs, integration costs including retention, and credits and/or charges associated with the write-up of acquired inventory and fixed assets to fair value, and the effect of a reduction in revenue related to the write-up of acquired unbilled accounts receivable to fair value; (iii) non-cash interest expense related to amortization of the debt discount for convertible debt securities; (iv) divestiture and restructuring charges; (v) non-cash loss on exchange of convertible notes; (vi) litigation settlement charges (benefits); (vii) other-than-temporary impairment losses on investments; and (viii) other one-time, nonrecurring, unusual or infrequent charges, expenses or gains that may not be indicative of Hologic s core business results; and to include income taxes related to such adjustments. Hologic believes the use of non-gaap adjusted net income is useful to investors by eliminating certain of the more significant effects of its acquisitions and related activities, non-cash charges resulting from the application of GAAP to convertible debt instruments with cash settlement features, charges related to debt extinguishment losses, investment impairments, litigation settlements, and divestiture and restructuring initiatives. These measures also reflect how Hologic manages its businesses internally. As with the items eliminated in its calculation of non- GAAP adjusted net income, these items may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to the overall operating performance of a company s business. When analyzing Hologic s operating performance, investors should not consider these non-gaap financial measures as a substitute for net income prepared in accordance with GAAP. See the most recent reconciliation of the non-gaap financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures in the supplement attached to this presentation. 3

Balance Sheet & Debt Paydown Road Map Focus on De-leveraging Total debt obligations of $5.2B, including $3.5B borrowed for acquisition of Gen-Probe Goal to reduce total debt to EBITDA from approximately 5.1x to 2.5x over next 3 years Expect to generate $600M in Free Cash Flow in FY 13 Debt Paydown Roadmap Initial focus on $775M tranche of our convertible notes putable in December 2013 $65M in scheduled payments for Tranches A and B of our Term Loans Build cash through FY 13 and FY 14, then focus on paying down remaining Gen-Probe-related debt 21

Hologic Summary Prepared to deliver on the promise of 3D Tomo Leading diagnostics franchise materially strengthened with acquisition of Gen-Probe Well-positioned for sustained growth with new product cycles and a global infrastructure Poised for earnings growth, strong cash flow and de-leveraging the balance sheet 22

Financial Guidance The Company s guidance reflects its current operations, including revenues from its approved/cleared products and its recently acquired businesses. Hologic may not generate expected revenues and may incur expenses or charges, realize income or gains, or execute acquisitions or dispositions in fiscal 2013 that could cause actual results to vary from the guidance provided in this presentation. In addition, the Company is continuing to monitor the effects of the U.S., European and general worldwide economic and regulatory conditions and related uncertainties, including the implementation of healthcare cost containment measures and healthcare reform legislation, as well as foreign currency fluctuations, which, along with other uncertainties facing the Company s business including those referenced elsewhere herein and its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, could adversely affect anticipated results. Future Non-GAAP Adjustments: Future GAAP EPS may be affected by changes in ongoing assumptions and judgments relating to the Company s acquired businesses, and may also be affected by nonrecurring, unusual or unanticipated charges, expenses or gains, all of which are excluded in the calculation of non-gaap adjusted EPS as described in this presentation. It is therefore not practicable to reconcile non-gaap adjusted EPS guidance to the most comparable GAAP measure. 26
