<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On October&nbsp;4, 2017, Hologic, Inc., a Delaware corporation (&#147;Hologic&#148; or the &#147;Company&#148;), issued a press release announcing a private
offering (the &#147;Offering&#148;) of $350 million aggregate principal amount of its senior notes due 2025. Hologic intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering, plus available cash, to repurchase all of its outstanding convertible notes in
privately negotiated transactions, through one or more tender offers, by exercise of its redemption rights, through a holder&#146;s exercise of its put rights, or by making a cash settlement election upon conversion. The Company&#146;s election to
redeem or repurchase the convertible notes, and/or make an all cash settlement election on conversion of the convertible notes, will be in the Company&#146;s sole discretion, based upon existing market and business conditions at the time of such
determination. Pending application of the net proceeds, the Company may use the net proceeds to repay a portion of the outstanding amounts borrowed under its revolver (which the Company intends to re-borrow to make repurchases or cash settlements as
described above) and the Company may invest the net proceeds in short-term securities. Net proceeds may also be used for working capital and for other general corporate purposes. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A copy of the press release announcing the Offering and the use of proceeds is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein in its entirety by
