Beckman is a manufacturer and marketer of biomedical testing instrument systems, tests and supplies. The complaint charges Beckman and certain of its officers and directors with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants engaged in improper behavior that harmed Beckmana™s investors by failing to disclose the quality and compliance issues related to its troponin test kits. As a result of these alleged false statements, Beckmana™s stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period.

If you purchased Beckman common stock during the Class Period, you may request that the Court appoint you as lead plaintiff of the class no later than 60 days from September 3, 2010. A lead plaintiff is a class member that acts on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Although your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision whether or not to seek appointment as a lead plaintiff, lead plaintiffs make important decisions which could affect the overall recovery for class members.
