On February 9, 2009, a filing agent, Bowne of Nashville, mistakenly submitted a Form 8-K and a Form
10-Q filing for Luminex Corporation (CIK: 0001033905) that were actually intended for First
Acceptance Corporation (CIK: 1017907). The incorrect CIK was inserted into the documents
submitted to the SEC by Bowne of Nashville which caused these filings to be erroneously listed as
filings by Luminex Corporation. These filings were submitted in error and they should be
disregarded. On February 10, 2009, Luminex Corporation submitted correspondence to the SEC,
requesting that the Form 8-K and form 10-Q filed and accepted under the accession numbers
0000950144-09-000857 and 0000950144-09-000856, respectively, be deleted from the SEC archives as
soon as possible. Luminex Corporation has also directed that any secondary information sources
which gather information from the SEC also be contacted to delete references to the erroneous
filings.
