(1) IDEX Corporation ("IDEX"), Nano Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of IDEX ("Purchaser"), and Microfluidics International Corporation (the "Issuer"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 10, 2011, pursuant to which Purchaser conducted a cash tender offer (the "Offer") to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Issuer (the "Shares"), at a price of $1.35 per Share, net to the seller in cash, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 25, 2011, as amended, attached as an exhibit to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, initially filed by IDEX and Purchaser with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 25, 2011, as amended.
(2) The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on February 24, 2011. An aggregate of 6,940,731 Shares were validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Offer (including certain Shares tendered under the Offer's guaranteed delivery procedures), representing approximately 66.54% of the Issuer's outstanding Shares.
