**CELERA DIAGNOSTICS REORGANIZATION AGREEMENT**

     This CELERA DIAGNOSTICS REORGANIZATION AGREEMENT (this “**Agreement**”) is dated as of the 22nd day of April, 2006, and effective as of January 1, 2006 (the “**Effective Date**”), and is by and among Applera Corporation (“**Applera**”), the Applied Biosystems Group of Applera (“**Applied Biosystems**”), the Celera Genomics Group of Applera (“**Celera Genomics**”), Foster City Holdings, LLC (the “**AB LLC**”**)**, and Rockville Holdings, LLC (the “**CRA LLC**”).

RECITALS

     ***CDx Joint Venture Reorganization***

     WHEREAS, Applied Biosystems (and its wholly-owned subsidiary AB LLC) and Celera Genomics (and its wholly-owned subsidiary CRA LLC) are parties to a Joint Venture Agreement dated as of April 1, 2001, as amended (the “**JV Agreement**”), pursuant to which Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics formed Celera Diagnostics, LLC (“**CDx**”), as a joint venture between them operating in the field of human *in vitro* diagnostics (as more particularly defined therein, the “**HIVD Field**”);

     WHEREAS, pursuant to and as contemplated by the JV Agreement, as of the Effective Date: (i) Applied Biosystems owned a 50% membership interest in CDx, designated as a Class A Membership Interest, indirectly through AB LLC, and (ii) Celera Genomics owned a 50% membership interest in CDx, designated as a Class B Membership Interest, indirectly through CRA LLC;

     WHEREAS, since its formation, CDx has developed its business, and the parties believe that Applied Biosystems’ and Celera Genomics’ interests in CDx have become increasingly valuable; 

     WHEREAS, as the CDx business has developed, CDx and Celera Genomics, with the express consent of Applied Biosystems, have identified and capitalized on various synergies between their two businesses, including the use of their respective scientific research for both therapeutic and diagnostic development, and their joint use of the expertise of key personnel; and Celera Genomics and CDx believe that the continued growth of their businesses can benefit from these types of synergies, but that these synergies would be optimized if the operations of the two business were combined;

     WHEREAS, despite the development of the CDx business, the parties believe that the full value of that business has not been realized or reflected in the stock values of either Applied Biosystems or Celera Genomics and that Applera and all of its stockholders could benefit from a reorganization of CDx whereby Celera Genomics and CDx would operate as a single business unit and Applied Biosystems’ value in CDx would be translated into a form that would better serve its ongoing operations;

----

     WHEREAS, in light of the foregoing, it has been proposed that the JV Agreement be terminated and Applied Biosystems transfer its interest in CDx to Celera Genomics, effectively combining the CDx business with and into the Celera Genomics business (the “**CRA/CDx Combination**”) and, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, reallocating the HIVD Field between Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics in a manner designed to optimize market opportunities and resources among each group;

     WHEREAS, such reorganization has been accompanied by an exchange of consideration representing fair value for the transferred interest consisting of the following (collectively, the “**Transfer Consideration**”):

|  | • | the NOL Benefit resulting from the termination of the JV Agreement, which is described below in these recitals; |
|--|--------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|  | • | the Clinical Continuum Arrangement, which is described below in these recitals and the terms and conditions of which are set forth in Article II below and the attached Annex to Article II; |
|--|--------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|  | • | the Reagent Development and Manufacturing Project, which is described below in these recitals; |
|--|--------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|  | • | the M&D Royalty Termination, which is described below in these recitals and the terms and conditions of which are set forth in Article III below; |
|--|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|  | • | the Transfer Price Increase, which is described below in these recitals; and |
|--|--------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|  | • | the Cash Payment described in Article IV below; |
|--|--------|-------------------------------------------------|

     ***NOL Benefit***

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the JV Agreement, Applied Biosystems agreed to reimburse Celera Genomics for any tax benefits resulting from losses generated by the CDx business or any other tax benefits generated by CDx to the extent such benefits are utilized by Applied Biosystems;

     WHEREAS, because of the termination of the JV Agreement as contemplated herein, Applied Biosystems will no longer be subject to that reimbursement obligation and will therefore receive an additional economic benefit from the termination of the JV Agreement (the “**NOL Benefit**”);

     ***Clinical Continuum Arrangement***

     WHEREAS, the evolution of genomics and proteomics research is causing changes in the market conditions for research tools, the focus of the Applied Biosystems business, and diagnostic products, the focus of the CDx business; and these changes in market conditions are causing a convergence of the research and diagnostic markets and a linkage between research platforms and diagnostic applications, as customers are seeking to rapidly migrate discoveries made on research platforms into new corresponding diagnostic products and services;

     WHEREAS, Applera believes that these customers will increasingly need access

- 2 -

----

to technology platforms that seamlessly support their efforts along the pathway (referred to herein as the “**Clinical Continuum**”) from broad scale discovery, through replication, medical utility studies, and ultimately commercialization of new diagnostics;

     WHEREAS, Applera believes that it can best respond to this market opportunity and address emerging competitive threats by establishing an arrangement between Applied Biosystems and CDx to maximize effective coverage of the entire Clinical Continuum and minimize duplicate use of internal resources, thereby leveraging (i) Applied Biosystems’ expertise and success in developing, manufacturing, and marketing technology platforms and its broad installed base of customers with (ii) CDx’s diagnostics research and development efforts, including its expertise in diagnostic assay development, manufacturing, and marketing (as more particularly set forth in the Annex to Article II attached hereto, the“**Clinical Continuum Arrangement”**);

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Clinical Continuum Arrangement, Applied Biosystems would be permitted to engage in certain business activities within the HIVD Field, previously exclusive to the CDx business;

     ***Reagent Development and Manufacturing Project***

     WHEREAS, Applied Biosystems is currently purchasing from third parties certain reagents that it sells to customers and wishes to develop its own internal source of similar reagents;

     WHEREAS, Applied Biosystems believes it will be able to recognize additional income and provide more differentiated products to customers with such internally supplied reagents;

     WHEREAS, CDx has the personnel with relevant experience to assist Applied Biosystems in developing and manufacturing such reagents, and Applera believes that such assistance would increase the certainty and decrease the time period for Applied Biosystems’ successful development of such capability as compared to the engagement of third parties for such purpose;

     WHEREAS, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and in light of the foregoing considerations, Celera Genomics has agreed that CDx will assist Applied Biosystems in developing and manufacturing reagents (the “**Reagent Development and Manufacturing Project**”);

     ***Marketing and Distribution Agreement***

     WHEREAS, Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics are also parties to an Amended and Restated Marketing and Distribution Agreement, originally dated as of April 1, 2002, as amended (the “**Marketing and Distribution Agreement**”);

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the Marketing and Distribution Agreement, Applied

- 3 -

----

Biosystems obtained exclusive rights to some of Celera Genomics’ human genomic and other biological and medical information in exchange for Applied Biosystems’ agreement to pay royalties to Celera Genomics based on revenues generated by sales of some Applied Biosystems products;

     WHEREAS, in light of the proposed CRA/CDx Combination, it has been further proposed that Applied Biosystems’ royalty payment obligations under the Marketing and Distribution Agreement be terminated but that the value of the terminated royalties be included in the consideration to be paid to Applied Biosystems for the CRA/CDx Combination (the “**M&D Royalty Termination**”);

     WHEREAS, Applera believes that this proposed termination of royalty payments serves the interest of Applera and its stockholders by simplifying the ongoing relationship between the two groups and therefore increasing transparency of the financial relationship between the two groups;

     ***Transfer Price Increase***

     WHEREAS, Applied Biosystems currently supplies certain consumables and other products to CDx on a cost basis rather than the price at which such products would otherwise be sold to a third-party in a commercial transaction;

     WHEREAS, in connection with the CRA/CDx combination, and in light of the fact that Applied Biosystems will no longer have an interest in the CDx business, Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics have agreed to increase the inter-group transfer price for such products (the “**Transfer Price Increase**”); and 

     ***Board Approval of Transactions***

     WHEREAS, in connection with its consideration of the CRA/CDx Combination and the related transactions described above, the Applera Board of Directors (the “**Applera Board**”) considered numerous factors and received advice from several independent advisors, including analyses of the value of Applied Biosystems’ interest in CDx as well as the value of the other components of the transactions described herein;

     WHEREAS, the Applera Board reviewed and considered an opinion of an independent investment banking firm regarding the fair value of (i) Applied Biosystems’ interest in CDx and (ii) the Transfer Consideration; 

     WHEREAS, based on an evaluation of all relevant factors, including the opinion described above, the Applera Board determined that the proposed transactions are fair to and in the best interest of Applera and its stockholders and approved the proposed transactions; and 

     WHEREAS, pursuant to the approval of the Applera Board, the parties have implemented the transactions described above with effect from the Effective Date, and

|      (b)     Without limitation of the foregoing clause (a), the Applera Board must approve any matter that requires such approval pursuant to the Company’s tracking stock principles and/or its Certificate of Incorporation.  For example, as a result of the operation and evolution of the arrangements contemplated herein, the parties may seek to modify, in their mutual interest, (i) the HIVD Field or (ii) the extent to which one or both of Applied Biosystems or Celera Genomics may be permitted to operate in the primary field of business of the other group (including the extent to which Applied Biosystems may operate in the HIVD Field).  Such modifications could, for example, become necessary or advisable:  tomost effectively pursue existing corporate opportunities, either because of changing market conditions for Clinical Continuum products and services or because of knowledge learned from the operation of the Clinical Continuum Arrangement; or to allocate new business opportunities.  However, if material those modifications will require approval of the Applera Board. |

**ANNEX TO ARTICLE II**

**CLINICAL CONTINUUM ARRANGEMENT**

     This Annex sets forth the terms and conditions of the Clinical Continuum Arrangement between Celera Genomics and Applied Biosystems pursuant to the Agreement of which this Annex is a part.  Capitalized terms used in this Annex shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Agreement or as set forth below, as the case may be.

**Product Development and Support – Instrumentation**

     Celera Genomics will provide product development support to Applied Biosystems aimed at ensuring that the diagnostic instrument systems developed by Applied Biosystems pursuant to this Clinical Continuum Arrangement are optimally suited for homebrew and diagnostic testing in the HIVD Field.  Applied Biosystems will pay Celera Genomics appropriate compensation for such services; provided, that instrument systems developed for the joint use and/or sale by Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics will be subject to mutually acceptable economic arrangements that address the costs and expenses incurred in mutually developing such instrument systems, the terms and conditions upon which Celera Genomics will have accessto such instrument systems from Applied Biosystems, and/or other considerations deemed relevant by the parties.  Furthermore, Applied Biosystems will be the preferred supplier of instruments to the alliance under the Restated Strategic Alliance Agreement among Applera Corporation, Celera Diagnostics, LLC, and Abbott Laboratories (the **“Abbott Alliance Agreement”**) and will have such rights, roles, and responsibilities relating to the development of instruments for such alliance all as and to the extent set forth in the Abbott Alliance Agreement.

**Product Development and Support – Assays**

     Celera Genomics will provide support and assistance to Applied Biosystems’ customers in exploring their promising discoveries as potential new diagnostic opportunities.  If an Applied Biosystems customer desires to develop and commercialize a diagnostic assay discovery in collaboration with Applera, Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics will develop a process to evaluate the opportunity with specified timelines and response milestones on a case-by-case basis.  Celera Genomics will have the first opportunity to develop a business case for commercializing a product based on such collaboration.  If Celera Genomics declines to pursue the opportunity, it may seek to contract manufacture the assay for the customerpursuant to appropriate compensation from Applied Biosystems or the customer.  In the event that Celera Genomics does not wish to manufacture the assay, Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics will work together in advising such customer in regard to alternative solutions for commercialization activities.  Celera Genomics’ delivery of services pursuant to this paragraph, and also if applicable its pursuit of any opportunity pursuant to this paragraph,

----

will be subject to mutually acceptable economic arrangements that address the mutual costs, expenses, and/or other contributions to any such opportunity as well as any other considerations deemed relevant by the parties.

**Regulatory Support**

     Within Applera, Celera Genomics will have sole responsibility for all regulatory matters involving products and services that are regulated by the FDA or its foreign counterparts, including the decision-making authority on the interpretation of Quality System Regulation requirements and communication with such agencies regarding regulatory matters related to Applera business activities.  In that capacity, Celera Genomics will provide assistance to Applied Biosystems in regulatory matters in support of the development of instrument systems and associated software for registration with the FDA and its foreign counterparts.  Applied Biosystems will pay Celera Genomics appropriate and mutually acceptable compensation forsuch services.

**Limited License**

     Applied Biosystems shall have the right to grant a limited license to Applera intellectual property to end users to use registered diagnostic instrument systems in the HIVD Field consistent with the requirements of and restrictions contained in the Agreement, including the HIVD Field and this Annex, provided that such instruments are properly labeled with corresponding use restrictions.

**Economic Arrangements/Program Resources**

     Any and all compensation and other economic arrangements contemplated by this Annex shall be consistent with the Applera tracking stock principles.  Such arrangements must be mutually agreed to between Applied Biosystems and Celera Genomics and approved by the Applera Executive Committee, and any disputes regarding these matters are subject to Article V of the Agreement.

     Applied Biosystems may choose to engage the services of certain dedicated employees to work closely with Celera Genomics’ R&D, Regulatory Affairs and Business Development organizations to advise and assist Applied Biosystems’ customers in exploring their promising discoveries as potential new diagnostic opportunities.  These employees will be situated at a mutually agreeable location.  Applied Biosystems will be responsible for the funding of these employees unless such funding is incorporated into the economic arrangements otherwise contemplated by this Annex.

     Consistent with Applera’s tracking stock principles, neither Applied Biosystems nor Celera Genomics may hire an employee of the other group without the consent of the affected group.
