Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) The reported Restricted Stock Units (RSU's) consist of RSU's from two separate grants made to Mr. Bridge-Cook: 25,000 RSU's on March 7, 2007 and 9,058 RSU's on March 13, 2008. At the time of such grants, Mr. Bridge-Cook reported the receipt of such RSU's as derivative securities in Table II of Form 4. Because these RSU's may only be settled in shares of Luminex Corporation Common Stock, and not in cash, Mr. Bridge-Cook now wishes to report the entire amount of these RSU's as shares of Common Stock on Table I to avoid having to file a new Form 4 on each vesting date of the RSU's. A transaction date of March 7, 2008 is shown, as 5,000 of the RSU's vested on March 7, 2008, and a Form 4 was not filed.
(2) With respect to the 25,000 RSU's granted on March 7, 2007, such RSU's vest in five equal installments beginning on March 7, 2008. With respect to the 9,058 RSU's granted on March 13, 2008, such RSU's vest in five equal installments beginning on March 13, 2009.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.

Potential persons who are to respond to the collection of information contained in this form are not required to respond unless the form displays a currently valid OMB number.
