Material Changes
PerkinElmer entered into a Second Supplemental Indenture to amend the terms of its 8 7/8% Notes.

These amendments became effective upon the purchase of validly tendered notes on November 14, 2005.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
- Transaction Status: The company received requisite consents to amend the indenture. The tender offer was set to expire on November 23, 2005, with final settlement expected promptly thereafter.
- Trustee Relationship: U.S. Bank National Association serves as the successor trustee and has provided financial services to the company in the past and may do so in the future for customary fees.
- Risks/Contingencies: The filing does not explicitly detail new risks, though the removal of restrictive covenants alters the debt structure's constraints.
