I previously received a copy of the amended exchange offer document, dated March 26, 2009, and the Election Form. I signed and returned the Election Form, in which I elected to tender some or all of my eligible options. I understand that Hologic will not accept any conditional or partial returns of eligible options and that, if I wish to withdraw my election, I must withdraw my election as to the entire previously submitted Election Form. I wish to change that election and withdraw from the offer with respect to all eligible options listed on the previously submitted Election Form.

I further understand that, by signing this Notice of Withdrawal and delivering it to Hologic, I withdraw my acceptance of the exchange offer with respect to the eligible options previously tendered and reject the exchange offer. By rejecting the exchange offer with respect to the eligible options previously tendered, I understand that I will not receive any new options in exchange for those eligible options and I will retain those options with their existing term, exercise price, vesting schedule and other terms and conditions. I agree that Hologic has made no representations or warranties to me regarding my rejection of the exchange offer. The withdrawal of the eligible options previously tendered is at my own discretion. I agree that Hologic will not be liable for any costs, taxes, losses or damages I may incur as a result of my decision to withdraw the eligible options previously tendered.

I elect to withdraw the eligible options previously tendered that I chose to exchange pursuant to the exchange offer and, therefore, I have completed and signed this Notice of Withdrawal exactly as my name appears on the Election Form that I previously submitted.
