encroach on other analytical instrumentation, thereby restricting the amount
of working space in pharmaceutical and academic laboratories. With Varian's

At the press conference, Waters(R) will provide an
update on the impact that UPLC(TM) is having on laboratory
productivity and discuss new product introductions for its ACQUITY
UPLC(TM) product line including an evaporative light scattering
detector, new ACQUITY UPLC chemistries and an LC/MS - based proteomics
solution powered by ACQUITY UPLC technology.

Certain statements contained herein are forward looking.
Core to NMR, magnets provide a strong, extremely homogenous magnetic field
into which the sample, whether liquid or solid, is placed for non-destructive
mapping of molecular structures and learning how molecules function and relate
to each other.

Many
factors could cause actual results to differ from these statements,
including delays in product introductions, loss of market share
through competition, introduction of competing products by other
companies, pressures on prices from competitors and/or customers,
regulatory obstacles to new product introductions, lack of acceptance
of new products, changes in the healthcare market and the
pharmaceutical industry , changes in distribution of the Company's
products, and foreign exchange fluctuations. This is an important step toward
moving NMR into more routine application laboratories.
