The notes were offered only to qualified institutional buyers and non-U.S. foreign investors in accordance with Rule 144A and Regulation S, respectively, under the Securities Act of 1933. The sale of the notes is conditioned upon and will be consummated substantially concurrent with the closing of the merger with IntraLase Corp. (IntraLase).

The notes will be unsecured senior subordinated obligations of AMO. AMO will pay interest on the notes semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing on November 1, 2007.
