Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the Schedule 13D originally filed on July 24, 2003 (the “Schedule 13D”) relating to the common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Company Common Stock”), of Caliper Life Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly known as Caliper Technologies Corp.) (the “Company”). The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 68 Elm Street, Hopkinton, MA 01748.

Unless otherwise defined or modified below, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.

Except as specifically set forth herein, the Schedule 13D remains unmodified.

Item 2. Identity and Background

Schedule A to the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety. The second paragraph of Item 2 in the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

Berwind is a holding company that holds investments in other businesses and assets. The address of the principal business and executive offices of Berwind is 103 Foulk Road, Suite 205-22, Wilmington, DE 19803. Berwind is a limited liability company that is indirectly (through wholly owned limited partnerships) owned by five trusts, each of which was organized in Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Berwind Trusts”). The name and address of the business and principal office of each of the Berwind Trusts is set forth in Schedule A hereto. The principal business of each Berwind Trust is to hold investments for the benefit of its beneficiaries.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding the following paragraphs at the end thereof:

On September 7, 2011, the Company, PerkinElmer, Inc. (“PerkinElmer”) and PerkinElmer Hopkinton Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of PerkinElmer (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of PerkinElmer. At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of Company Common Stock other than shares owned by Parent, Merger Sub or the Company, will be converted into the right to receive $10.50 per share in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any tax withholding. The parties’ obligations to consummate the Merger are subject to customary conditions, including, among other things, (i) approval of the Merger by the Company’s stockholders and (ii) the expiration or termination of applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act and any other similar filings that need to be made in foreign jurisdictions.

In connection with the transactions proposed in, and concurrently with the execution of, the Merger Agreement, the Reporting Person entered into a Voting Agreement, dated as of September 7, 2011, with PerkinElmer and the Company (the “Voting Agreement”) with respect to (i) all shares of Company Common Stock owned, beneficially or of record, by the Reporting Person as of the date thereof, and (ii) all additional shares of Company Common Stock acquired by the Reporting Person, beneficially or of record, during the period commencing with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement and expiring upon the termination of the Voting Agreement in accordance with its terms (collectively, the “Shares”). The Voting Agreement terminates upon the earlier of (A) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to its terms, (B) the Effective Time, (C) the date set forth in any mutual written consent to terminate the Voting Agreement executed by PerkinElmer and the Reporting Person or (D) the date of any modification, supplement, amendment or waiver of the Merger Agreement as in effect on the date of the Voting Agreement that adversely affects the Reporting Person.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Voting Agreement, the Reporting Person has agreed that, prior to the termination of the Voting Agreement, it shall at any meeting of the shareholders of the Company (or any adjournment or postponement thereof), however called, vote, or cause to be voted at such meeting, all of its Shares (i) in favor of the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement (the “Proposed Transaction”), (ii) against the approval or adoption of any proposal made in opposition to, or in competition with, the Proposed Transaction, and (iii) against (A) any merger, consolidation or business combination involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries other than the Proposed Transaction; (B) any sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (C) any reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; or (D) any other action that is intended, or could reasonably be expected, to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the

Company under the Merger Agreement or of the Reporting Person under the Voting Agreement or otherwise impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the consummation of the Proposed Transaction (each of (ii) and (iii), a “Competing Transaction”).

In addition, the Reporting Person irrevocably appointed Parent and each of Parent’s designees its proxy and attorney-in-fact (with full power of substitution and re-substitution) to vote its Shares as indicated above. The proxy shall terminate, without the requirement of any further action, upon the termination of the Voting Agreement.

The Reporting Person also agreed during the term of the Voting Agreement not to: (i) assign, sell, transfer, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of (either directly or indirectly), or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to, any of its Shares; (ii) commit any act that could reasonably be expected to restrict or affect, or has the effect of restricting or affecting, the Reporting Person’s legal power, authority and right to vote all of the Shares then owned of record or beneficially by the Reporting Person or otherwise prevent or disable the Reporting Person from performing any of its obligations under the Voting Agreement

From the date of the Voting Agreement until the consummation of the Merger or termination of the Voting Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Reporting Person agreed not to, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, initiate, propose, knowingly encourage or knowingly facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (ii) enter into, continue or otherwise participate in any communications, discussions or negotiations regarding, furnish to any person any information or data with respect to, assist or participate in any effort or attempt by any person with respect to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with, any Acquisition Proposal, (iii) adopt, approve or recommend, or propose to adopt, approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal or (iv) enter into any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar agreement constituting or relating to, or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal.

The Merger Agreement defines an “Acquisition Proposal” as (i) any inquiry, proposal or offer for a merger, consolidation, dissolution, sale of substantial assets, tender offer, recapitalization, share exchange or other business combination however effected involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) any proposal for the issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of over 15% of its equity securities or (iii) any proposal or offer to acquire in any manner, directly or indirectly, over 15% of the equity securities or consolidated total assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, in each case other than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

The foregoing summary of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of such agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 1.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

The information contained on the cover pages to this Schedule 13D and the information set forth or incorporated in Items 4 and 6 hereof are incorporated herein by reference.

As of the date of this Statement, Berwind is the “beneficial owner,” as set forth in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, of 3,150,000 shares of Company Common Stock, which constitutes 5.94% of the 53,056,824 shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding as disclosed by the Company in its most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on August 9, 2011 (the “Aggregate Share Number”).

Each Berwind Trust is, through a wholly owned limited partnership, a member of Berwind, and the Berwind Trusts, their trustees and Berwind’s directors and officers may be deemed to have indirect beneficial ownership of any Company Common Stock owned by Berwind. The Berwind Trusts, their trustees and each director and officer of Berwind disclaims beneficial ownership of the Company Common Stock owned by Berwind. Neither the filing of this Statement nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any of the foregoing persons is the beneficial owner of the Company Common Stock referred to in this Item for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose. Mr. Van Billet, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Berwind, directly beneficially owns 123,890 shares of Company Common Stock, consisting of 25,107 shares of Company Common Stock, options to acquire 96,353 shares of Company Common Stock and 2,430 restricted stock units to acquire 2,430 shares of Company Common Stock. Such shares represent less than 0.24% of the Aggregate Share Number. Mr. Billet entered into a voting agreement with PerkinElmer comparable to the Voting Agreement. Subject to the

terms of such voting agreement, Mr. Billet has sole power to vote, or to direct the voting of, and sole power to dispose, or to direct the disposition of, such shares.

Except as disclosed in this Statement, to the best of the Reporting Person’s knowledge, none of the persons named in Item 2 hereof or on Schedule A hereto beneficially owns any shares of Company Common Stock, nor have any transactions in Company Common Stock been effected during the past 60 days by the Reporting Person or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Person, by any of the persons named in Item 2 hereof or on Schedule A hereto. In addition, no other person is known by the Reporting Person to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities covered by this Statement.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
