        &#8220;Company&#8221;) on July 28, 2026 (the &#8220;Original 8-K&#8221;) to file the Share and Asset Purchase Agreement (the &#8220;Purchase Agreement&#8221;), which was previously summarized in Item 1.01 to the Original 8-K, as Exhibit 2.1 hereto. Terms used and not defined herein

        intended to provide any other factual information about the Transaction. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for purposes of such agreement and as of specific dates, were solely for the
        benefit of the parties to the Purchase Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made by each party to the other for the purposes of allocating contractual risk
        between them that differ from those applicable to investors. In addition, certain representations and warranties may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to investors and may have been used
        for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Purchase Agreement, which
        subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in public disclosures by the Company. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any description thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts

        with either the sale of the Mass Cytometry business or the Treeline transaction may result in significant costs of defense, indemnification and liability; (xiii) the parties&#8217; ability to realize the anticipated benefits of the Treeline transaction;
        (xiv) the risk that the parties may assume unexpected liabilities and expenses as a result of the Treeline transaction; (xv) the risk that the potential disposition of Standard BioTools&#8217; Microfluidics business may not be completed on favorable
