AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 17, 2013, is by and among Cynosure, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Buyer”), Commander Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the “Merger Subsidiary”), and Palomar Medical Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of the Buyer and the Company deem it advisable and in the best interests of each corporation and their respective stockholders that the Buyer acquire the Company in order to advance the long-term business interests of the Buyer and the Company;

WHEREAS, the acquisition of the Company shall be effected through a merger (the “Merger”) of the Company into the Merger Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”);

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as a condition and inducement to the Buyer’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, the stockholders of the Company listed on Schedule A have entered into Stockholder Agreements, dated as of the date of this Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Company Stockholder Agreements”), pursuant to which such stockholders have, among other things, agreed to give the Buyer a proxy to vote in favor of the Company Voting Proposal all of the shares of voting capital stock of the Company that such stockholders own;

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and as a condition and inducement to the Company’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, the stockholders of the Buyer listed on Schedule B have entered into Stockholder Agreements, dated as of the date of this Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Buyer Stockholder Agreements”), pursuant to which such stockholders have, among other things, agreed to give the Company a proxy to vote in favor of the Buyer Voting Proposal all of the shares of voting capital stock of the Buyer that such stockholders own; and

WHEREAS, for United States federal income tax purposes, it is intended that the Merger shall qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Buyer, the Merger Subsidiary and the Company agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

THE MERGER

1.1 Effective Time of the Merger.

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, prior to the Closing, the Buyer and the Company shall jointly prepare, and immediately following the Closing, the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) in such form as is required by, and executed by the Surviving Corporation in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the DGCL and shall make all other filings or recordings required under the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective upon the due filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later time as is established by the Buyer and the Company and set forth in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”).

1.2 Closing.

The closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m., Eastern time, on a date to be specified by the Buyer and the Company (the “Closing Date”), which shall be no later than the second Business

Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than delivery of items to be delivered at the Closing and other than satisfaction of those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, it being understood that the occurrence of the Closing shall remain subject to the delivery of such items and the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing), at the offices of Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Xxxxxx LLP, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx, unless another date, place or time is agreed to in writing by the Buyer and the Company.

1.3 Effects of the Merger.

At the Effective Time, (a) the separate existence of the Company shall cease and the Company shall be merged with and into the Merger Subsidiary (the Merger Subsidiary following the Merger is sometimes referred to herein as the “Surviving Corporation”) and (b) the Certificate of Incorporation of the Merger Subsidiary as in effect on the date of this Agreement shall be amended in its entirety so that, immediately following the Effective Time, it shall read as set forth on Exhibit C and, as so amended, such Certificate of Incorporation shall be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, until (subject to Section 6.11) further amended in accordance with the DGCL. In addition, the Buyer shall cause the By-laws of the Merger Subsidiary as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time to be amended and restated in their entirety so that, immediately following the Effective Time, they shall read as set forth on Exhibit D, and, as so amended and restated, such By-laws shall be the By-laws of the Surviving Corporation, until (subject to Section 6.11) further amended in accordance with the DGCL. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 259 of the DGCL.

1.4 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation.

The directors and officers of the Merger Subsidiary immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation, each to hold office in accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Surviving Corporation.

ARTICLE II

CONVERSION OF SECURITIES

2.1 Conversion of Capital Stock.

As of the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any shares of the capital stock of the Company or capital stock of the Merger Subsidiary:

(a) Capital Stock of the Merger Subsidiary. Each share of the common stock of the Merger Subsidiary issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time.

(b) Cancellation of Treasury Stock and Buyer-Owned Stock. All shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) that are owned by the Company as treasury stock or by any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company and any shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Buyer, the Merger Subsidiary or any other Subsidiary of the Buyer immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist, and no stock of the Buyer or other consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(c) Company Common Stock. Each share of Company Common Stock (each such share, including (solely for purposes of this Article II (other than Section 2.4)) each outstanding Right (as defined in the Company Rights Plan) attached thereto (a “Right”), a “Company Share”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Dissenting Shares and any Company Shares to be cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(b)) shall be converted automatically into the right to receive, in accordance with the terms of this

- 2 -

Agreement, (i) a cash amount equal to $6.825, plus any Make-Whole Payment (the aggregate per Share cash consideration described in this clause (i), the “Cash Consideration”), without interest, and (ii) that number (the “Exchange Ratio”) of validly issued, fully-paid and non-assessable shares of the Buyer’s Class A Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Buyer Common Stock”) (the shares of Buyer Common Stock referred to in clause (ii) being the “Stock Consideration” and, together with the Cash Consideration, the “Merger Consideration”), equal to the quotient determined by dividing $6.825 (the “Target Stock Value”) by the Average Buyer Stock Price, and rounding the result to the nearest 1/10,000 of a share of Buyer Common Stock, payable in the manner set forth in Section 2.2; provided, however, that (x) if the number determined by dividing the Target Stock Value by the Average Buyer Stock Price is less than or equal to 0.229, the Exchange Ratio shall be 0.229 and (y) if the number determined by dividing the Target Stock Value by the Average Buyer Stock Price is greater than or equal to 0.283, the Exchange Ratio shall be 0.283 (the “Maximum Exchange Ratio”). The “Average Buyer Stock Price” means the average of the last reported sales prices (as of the end of regular trading at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time) of the Buyer Common Stock on The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, as reported by The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the Effective Time. Except as set forth in Section 2.1(b), as a result of the Merger, each holder of a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding Company Shares (“Certificates”) and each holder of Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that are not represented by Certificates (“Book-Entry Company Shares”), in each case including each holder of Rights, shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Shares or such Rights except (x) the right to receive the Merger Consideration, any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.2(c) and cash in lieu of any fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.2(e), in each case to be issued or paid, without interest, in consideration therefor upon surrender of such Certificate or transfer of the Book-Entry Company Shares in accordance with Section 2.2(b) (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, Section 2.2(j)) or (y) as provided by law. For purposes of this Agreement, “Make-Whole Payment” means (1) if, but for the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.1(c), the Exchange Ratio would be greater than the Maximum Exchange Ratio, an amount that is equal to the positive difference between the Target Stock Value and the product of (X) the Average Buyer Stock Price multiplied by (Y) the Exchange Ratio (such difference, the “Stock Value Shortfall”) and (2) in all other cases, $0.00; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Make-Whole Payment shall not exceed $0.400 unless otherwise agreed to by the Buyer in writing.

2.2 Exchange of Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. Prior to the Effective Time, the Buyer shall designate American Stock Transfer and Trust Company, LLC or another commercial bank or trust company mutually acceptable to the Company and the Buyer to act as agent (the “Exchange Agent”) for the exchange of Company Shares in accordance with this Article II. Prior to the Effective Time, the Buyer shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the holders of Company Shares (other than Company Shares cancelled pursuant to Section 2.1(b) and Dissenting Shares), for exchange in accordance with this Article II, (i) book-entry shares representing the number of shares of Buyer Common Stock sufficient to pay the aggregate Stock Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(c), (ii) cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Cash Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(c) and (iii) cash in an amount sufficient to make all requisite payments of cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.2(e) (such cash and book-entry shares representing shares of Buyer Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions with respect thereto pursuant to Section 2.2(c), the “Exchange Fund”). The Exchange Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund. The cash portion of the Exchange Fund shall be invested by the Exchange Agent as directed by the Buyer; provided, however, that (A) such investments shall be in obligations of or guaranteed by the United States of America, in commercial paper obligations rated A-1 or P-1 or better by Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. or Standard & Poor’s Corporation, respectively, or in certificates of deposit, bank repurchase agreements or banker’s acceptances of commercial banks with capital exceeding $10 billion (based on the most recent financial statements of such bank which are then publicly available) and (B) no gain or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the Buyer shall take all actions necessary to ensure that, at all times, the Exchange Fund includes (1) book-entry shares representing a number of shares of

- 3 -

Buyer Common Stock sufficient to pay the aggregate Stock Consideration and (2) cash sufficient to satisfy the Buyer’s obligation to pay the aggregate (x) Cash Consideration under this Agreement, (y) cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and (z) dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 2.2(c). Any interest or other income from such investments (less any losses) shall be paid to and become income of the Buyer. Except to the extent contemplated by Section 2.2(g), the Exchange Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than as specified in this Section 2.2.

(b) Exchange Procedures.

(i) As promptly as practicable (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the Effective Time, the Buyer shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each person who was, at the Effective Time, a holder of record of Company Shares entitled to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(c): (A) a letter of transmittal (which shall be in customary form and shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Company Shares shall be deemed to pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof together with any required indemnity pursuant to Section 2.2(j)) or transfer of the Book-Entry Company Shares to the Exchange Agent) and (B) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates or transfer of the Book-Entry Company Shares pursuant to such letter of transmittal.

(ii) Upon (A) surrender to the Exchange Agent of a Certificate for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal properly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, or (B) receipt by the Exchange Agent of an “agent’s message” in the case of Book-Entry Company Shares and, in each case, such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions, the holder of such Company Shares shall receive promptly in exchange therefor cash in the amount equal to the Cash Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(c), book-entry shares representing the Stock Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(c), cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(c); and the Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Company Shares which is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, cash in the amount equal to the Cash Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(c), book-entry shares representing the Stock Consideration that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(c), cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(c) may be issued to a transferee if the Certificate or Book-Entry Company Shares representing such Company Shares are presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and by evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid. Until surrendered as contemplated by Section 2.1(c) and this Section 2.2, each Certificate or Book-Entry Company Share shall be deemed at all times after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender, in each case, without interest, the Merger Consideration, cash in lieu of any fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Company Share is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.2(c).

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares of Buyer Common Stock. No dividends or other distributions declared or made with a record date after the Effective Time with respect to the Buyer Common Stock (and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.2(e)) shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate or Book-Entry Company Share until the holder of such Certificate or Book-Entry Company Share shall surrender such Certificate or Book-Entry Company Share in accordance with Section 2.2(b). Subject to the effect of escheat, Tax or other applicable laws, following surrender of any such Certificate or Book-Entry Company Share in accordance with Section 2.2(b), there shall be paid to the record holder of shares of Buyer Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, at the appropriate payment date (or, if previously paid, promptly), the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to surrender payable with respect to such shares of Buyer Common Stock and the amount of any cash payable in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock pursuant to Section 2.2(e).

- 4 -

(d) No Further Rights in Company Common Stock. All Merger Consideration issued or paid upon surrender of Certificates or transfer of Book-Entry Company Shares in accordance with the terms of this Article II (including any cash paid pursuant to Section 2.2(c) or Section 2.2(e)) shall be deemed to have been issued or paid, as the case may be, in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Company Shares formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares. If, after the Effective Time and subject to Section 2.2(h), Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(e) No Fractional Company Shares. No certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock or book-entry credit of the same shall be issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares, and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights (including the right to receive dividends or other distributions of the Buyer) of a stockholder of the Buyer. Each holder of a fractional share interest (after taking into account all fractional share interests held by such holder) shall receive, in lieu thereof, an amount in cash (without interest, rounded to the nearest whole cent and subject to the amount of any withholding Taxes as contemplated in Section 2.2(i)) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) such fractional share interest to which such holder (after taking into account all fractional share interests then held by such holder) would otherwise be entitled by (ii) the Average Buyer Stock Price. The parties hereto acknowledge that payment of the cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional shares is not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to the Buyer that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional shares.

(f) Adjustments to Merger Consideration. The Merger Consideration (including the Exchange Ratio) shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities of a Subsidiary of the Buyer or the Company or of securities convertible into Buyer Common Stock or Company Common Stock), extraordinary cash dividends, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Buyer Common Stock or Company Common Stock occurring (or for which a record date is established) on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

(g) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including proceeds of any investment thereof) that remains undistributed to the holders of Company Shares on the date that is two hundred seventy (270) days after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Buyer, upon demand, and any holders of Company Shares who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter be entitled to receive from the Buyer the Merger Consideration to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(c), any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions with respect to the Buyer Common Stock to which they are entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(c).

(h) No Liability. None of the Exchange Agent, the Buyer or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of Company Shares for any Merger Consideration from the Exchange Fund (or dividends or distributions with respect to Buyer Common Stock) or other cash delivered to a public official pursuant to the applicable requirements of any abandoned property, escheat or similar law. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Company Shares as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise automatically escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity pursuant to the applicable requirements of any abandoned property, escheat or similar law shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, become the property of the Buyer free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(i) Withholding Rights and Obligations. Each of the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent, the Buyer and the Merger Subsidiary shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amount as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of

- 5 -

such payment under the Code, the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, any provision of applicable state, local or foreign Tax law or any other law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld, such withheld amounts shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. If any withholding obligation may be avoided by such person providing information or documentation to the Surviving Corporation, the Exchange Agent, the Buyer or the Merger Subsidiary, such person may provide such information in a timely fashion and avoid any such withholding. Any amounts withheld pursuant to this Section 2.2(i) shall be promptly and timely paid over to the applicable Governmental Entity.

(j) Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if reasonably required by the Buyer, the posting by such person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Buyer may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration with respect to the Company Shares formerly represented by such Certificate to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(c), any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(c).

2.3 Stock Transfer Books.

At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers of Company Shares thereafter on the records of the Company. At or after the Effective Time, any Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares presented to the Exchange Agent or the Buyer for any reason shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration with respect to the Company Shares formerly represented by such Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(c), any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to which the holders of such Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares are entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(c).

2.4 Appraisal Rights.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Company Shares that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and are held by a stockholder (each, a “Dissenting Stockholder”) who is entitled to exercise, and properly exercises, dissenter’s rights with respect to such shares pursuant to, and who complies in all respects with, the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) shall not be converted into or exchangeable for or represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration (except as provided in this Section 2.4) and shall entitle such Dissenting Stockholder only to payment of the fair value of such Dissenting Shares as may be determined to be due to the holder of such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, unless and until such Dissenting Stockholder withdraws (in accordance with Section 262(k) of the DGCL) or effectively loses (through failure to perfect or otherwise) the right to appraisal. If any Dissenting Stockholder shall have effectively withdrawn (in accordance with Section 262(k) of the DGCL) or lost (through failure to perfect or otherwise) the right to appraisal, then as of the later of the Effective Time or the occurrence of such event, the Dissenting Shares held by such Dissenting Stockholder and each Right attached thereto shall be cancelled and converted into and represent the right to receive, without any interest thereon, the Merger Consideration in accordance with Article II hereof, less applicable withholding Taxes, if any, required to be withheld (as contemplated by Section 2.2(i)), any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Buyer Common Stock to which the holders of such Certificates or Book-Entry Company Shares are entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(e) and any dividends or other distributions to which the holders thereof are entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(c). From and after the Effective Time, Dissenting Shares shall not be entitled to vote for any purpose or be entitled to the payment of dividends or other distributions (except dividends or other distributions payable to stockholders of record prior to the Effective Time). The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of the Buyer, voluntarily make (or cause or permit to be made on its behalf)

- 6 -

any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, or otherwise negotiate with, any Dissenting Stockholder regarding its exercise of dissenter’s rights prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall give the Buyer notice of any such demands prior to the Effective Time, and the Buyer shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to any exercise by any stockholder of dissenter’s rights. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms “Company Shares” and “Dissenting Shares,” as used in this Section 2.4, shall not include the Rights.

2.5 Tax Treatment.

The Buyer, the Merger Subsidiary and the Company agree and acknowledge that the Merger is intended to qualify as a “reorganization” described in Section 368(a)(2)(D) of the Code for United States federal income tax purposes.

2.6 Company Stock Plans.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company, through the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Company Board”) or an appropriate committee thereof, shall (i) cancel, effective immediately prior to the Effective Time, all outstanding options to purchase Company Common Stock (the “Company Stock Options”) awarded under any stock option plan or other equity-related plan or agreement of the Company (collectively, the “Company Stock Plans”); (ii) provide written notice of such cancellation to the holders of Company Stock Options; (iii) permit the holders of such Company Stock Options to exercise such awards to the extent such awards are then exercisable or otherwise vested through the point in time immediately prior to the Effective Time (unless such awards by their terms expire prior to such point in time, in which case such awards shall expire at such earlier point in time); and (iv) terminate all Company Stock Plans as of the point in time immediately prior to the Effective Time. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Company shall not alter or amend the terms and conditions of any Company Stock Options.

(b) At the Effective Time, all outstanding restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance share awards, stock appreciation rights and other equity instruments (collectively, excluding Company Stock Options, the “Other Company Equity Awards”) shall vest in full in accordance with their terms and shall automatically be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration and other amounts specified in this Article II, less, in the case of stock appreciation rights, the exercise price thereof. The Buyer shall (and shall cause the Surviving Corporation to), at all times from and after the Effective Time, maintain sufficient liquid funds to satisfy their obligations to the holders of Other Company Equity Awards. As soon as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall mail to each person who is a holder of an Other Company Equity Award a letter describing the treatment of and payment for such Other Company Equity Award pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) and providing instructions for use in obtaining payment for such Other Company Equity Award. The Surviving Corporation or the Buyer shall pay all amounts payable to any holder of an Other Company Equity Award under this Section 2.6(b) to such holder promptly following the Effective Time.

ARTICLE III

3.1 Organization, Standing and Power.

The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now being conducted, and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation (to the extent such concept is applicable) in each jurisdiction listed in Section 3.1 of the Company Disclosure Schedule, which jurisdictions constitute, as of the date of this Agreement, the only jurisdictions in which the character of the properties it owns, operates or leases or the nature of its activities makes such qualification necessary, except for such failures to be so organized, qualified or in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, that have not had, and would not reasonably be expected to result in, a Company Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Company Material Adverse Effect” means any material adverse change, event, circumstance or development (each, a “Change”) with respect to, or material adverse effect on, the business, assets, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; provided, however, that no Change (by itself or when aggregated or taken together with any and all other Changes) resulting from, arising out of or attributable to the following shall be deemed to be or constitute a “Company Material Adverse Effect,” and no Change (by itself or when aggregated or taken together with any and all other Changes) resulting from, arising out of or attributable to any of the following shall be taken into account when determining whether a “Company Material Adverse Effect” has occurred or may, would or could occur:

(a) general economic conditions (or changes in such conditions) in the United States or any other country or region in the world, or conditions in the global economy generally;

(b) conditions (or changes in such conditions) in the securities markets, credit markets, currency markets or other financial markets in the United States or any other country or region in the world, including (i) changes in interest rates in the United States or any other country or region in the world and changes in exchange rates for the currencies of any countries and (ii) any suspension of trading in securities (whether equity, debt, derivative or hybrid securities) generally on any securities exchange or over-the-counter market operating in the United States or any other country or region in the world;

(c) conditions (or changes in such conditions) in the industries in which any of the Company and its Subsidiaries conducts business;

(d) political conditions (or changes in such conditions) in the United States or any other country or region in the world or acts of war, sabotage or terrorism (including any escalation or general worsening of any such acts of war, sabotage or terrorism) in the United States or any other country or region in the world;

(e) earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis, tornadoes, floods, mudslides, wild fires or other natural disasters, weather conditions and other force majeure events in the United States or any other country or region in the world;

(f) the announcement of this Agreement or the pendency or consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby;

(g) any actions taken or failure to take action, in each case, to which the Buyer has approved, consented to or requested; or compliance with the terms of, or the taking of any action required or contemplated by, this Agreement; or the failure to take any action prohibited by this Agreement;

(h) changes in law or other legal or regulatory conditions (or the interpretation thereof) or changes in GAAP or other accounting standards (or the interpretation thereof);

(i) any change, event, occurrence or development relating to the failure to receive any regulatory approvals for any products or products in development of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any other regulatory development affecting the products or products in development of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

- 8 -

(j) any change, event occurrence or development relating to the products or product candidates of any person (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries), including the entry into the market of products competitive with any of the products or products in development of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries;

(k) any fees or expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

(l) changes in the Company’s stock price or the trading volume of the Company’s stock, or any failure by the Company to meet any public estimates or expectations of the Company’s revenue, earnings or other financial performance or results of operations for any period, or any failure by the Company to meet any internal budgets, plans or forecasts of its revenues, earnings or other financial performance or results of operations (but not, in each case, the underlying cause of such changes or failures, unless such changes or failures would otherwise be excepted from this definition); and

(m) any legal proceedings made or brought by any of the current or former stockholders of the Company (on their own behalf or on behalf of the Company) against the Company, including legal proceedings arising out of the Merger or in connection with any other transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

except to the extent such Changes resulting from, arising out of or attributable to the matters described in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (h) above have a materially disproportionate adverse effect on the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as compared to other similarly situated companies that conduct business in the countries and regions in the world and in the industries and markets in which the Company and its Subsidiaries conduct business (in which case, such Changes shall be taken into account only to the extent they are materially disproportionate when determining whether a “Company Material Adverse Effect” has occurred or may, would or could occur). For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the terms “material”, “materially” or “materiality” as used in this Agreement with an initial lower case “m” shall have their respective customary and ordinary meanings, without regard to the meanings ascribed to Company Material Adverse Effect in the prior sentence of this paragraph or Buyer Material Adverse Effect in Section 4.1. The Company has made available to the Buyer complete and accurate copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company. The Company is not a “shell company” within the meaning of Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

Other than the Company Stockholder Agreements, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to or is bound by any agreements or understandings with respect to the voting (including voting trusts and proxies) of any shares of capital stock or other equity interests of the Company. For purposes of this Agreement (other than Sections 3.25 and 4.15), the term “Affiliate” when used with respect to any party shall mean any person who is an “affiliate” of that party within the meaning of Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act.

All of the outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity securities or interests of each Subsidiary of the Company are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable (to the extent such concepts are applicable) and free of preemptive rights under any provision of the state corporation statute of such Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of organization, such Subsidiary’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or other organizational documents) or any agreement to which such Subsidiary is a party or otherwise bound, and all such shares (other than directors’ qualifying shares in the case of non-U.S. Subsidiaries, all of which the Company has the power to cause to be transferred for no or nominal consideration to the Company or the Company’s designee) are owned, of record and beneficially, by the Company or another of its Subsidiaries free and clear of all security interests, liens, pledges, limitations on the Company’s voting rights or other encumbrances (“Liens”) (other than (i) mechanic’s, materialmen’s, landlord’s, supplier’s and similar Liens, (ii) Liens arising under worker’s compensation, retirement and similar legislation, (iii) Liens for Taxes not yet due and payable, and (iv) Liens arising from restrictions on transfer under applicable securities laws (collectively, “Permitted Liens”)).

All of the outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity securities or interests of each Subsidiary of the Buyer are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable (to the extent such concepts are applicable) and free of preemptive rights under any provision of the state corporation statute of such Subsidiary’s jurisdiction of organization, such Subsidiary’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws (or other organizational documents) or any agreement to which such Subsidiary is a party or otherwise bound, and all such shares (other than directors’ qualifying shares in the case of non-U.S. Subsidiaries, all of which the Buyer has the power to cause to be transferred for no or nominal consideration to the Buyer or the Buyer’s designee) are owned, of record and beneficially, by the Buyer or another of its Subsidiaries free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens).

(a) From the Effective Time through the six (6) year anniversary of the date on which the Effective Time occurs, each of the Buyer and the Surviving Corporation shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold harmless each person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof, or who becomes prior to the Effective Time, a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Parties”), against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to the fact that the Indemnified Party is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, while a director or officer of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries, is or was serving at the request of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer, employee or agent of another person, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Each Indemnified Party will be entitled to advancement of expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from each of the Buyer and the Surviving Corporation; provided that any Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking, to the extent required by the DGCL, to repay such advances if it is determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal) that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification under applicable law.

- 42 -

(c) Subject to the next sentence, the Surviving Corporation shall either (i) maintain, and the Buyer shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain, at no expense to the beneficiaries, in effect for six (6) years from the Effective Time the current policies of the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance maintained by the Company (the “Current D&O Insurance”) with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time (including the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), so long as the annual premium therefor would not be in excess of 250% of the last annual premium paid prior to the Effective Time (such 250%, the “Maximum Premium”), or (ii) purchase a six (6) year extended reporting period endorsement with respect to the Current D&O Insurance (a “Reporting Tail Endorsement”) and maintain such endorsement in full force and effect for its full term. If the Company’s or the Surviving Corporation’s existing insurance expires, is terminated or canceled during such six-year period or exceeds the Maximum Premium, the Surviving Corporation shall obtain, and the Buyer shall cause the Surviving Corporation to obtain, as much directors’ and officers’ liability insurance as can be obtained for the remainder of such period for an annualized premium not in excess of the Maximum Premium, on terms and conditions no less advantageous to the Indemnified Parties than the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may, prior to the Effective Time, purchase a Reporting Tail Endorsement, provided that the Company does not pay for such Reporting Tail Endorsement more than six (6) times the last annual premium paid prior to the Effective Time for the Current D&O Insurance. If the Company purchases a Reporting Tail Endorsement in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, then the Buyer shall be relieved from its obligations pursuant to this Section 6.11(c) so long as the Buyer maintains, or causes the Surviving Corporation to maintain, as applicable, such Reporting Tail Endorsement in full force and effect for its full term.

(e) If any Indemnified Party makes any claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 6.11 that is denied by the Buyer and/or the Company or the Surviving Corporation, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Indemnified Party is entitled to such indemnification or advancement of expenses, then the Buyer, the Company or the Surviving Corporation shall pay the Indemnified Party’s costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with pursuing his or her claims to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(f) The provisions of this Section 6.11 are intended to be in addition to the rights otherwise available to the current officers and directors of the Company by law, charter, statute, by-law or agreement, and shall operate for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties, their heirs and their representatives.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “Section 16 Information” means information regarding the Company Insiders and the number of shares of Company Common Stock deemed to be beneficially owned by each such Company Insider and expected to be exchanged for Buyer Common Stock in connection with the Merger, which shall be provided by the Company to the Buyer within 10 Business Days after the date of this Agreement.

(c) For all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under the employee benefit plans of the Buyer and its Subsidiaries (excluding any retiree healthcare plans or programs maintained by the Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries) providing benefits to any Company Employees after the Effective Time (the “New Plans”), the Buyer shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, recognize all service of the Company Employees with the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors before the Effective Time, as the case may be, as if such service were with the Buyer in any New Plan in which such Company Employee may be eligible to participate after the Effective Time; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits or such service was not recognized under the corresponding Company Employee Plan in which such Company Employee participated immediately before the consummation of the Merger (such plans, collectively, the “Old Plans”). In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Company Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans to the extent such New Plan is comparable to the Old Plans, and (ii)(A) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical or vision benefits to any Company Employee, the Buyer shall cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such Company Employee and his or her covered

dependents, unless such conditions would not have been waived under the Old Plan of the Company or its Subsidiaries in which such Company Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time and (B) the Buyer shall cause any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents during the portion of the plan year of the Old Plan ending on the date such employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(d) If any Company Employee (who is not otherwise a party to an Employment Agreement) whose employment is terminated on or prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Time under circumstances under which such Company Employee would have received severance benefits under the Company’s severance practices (the “Company Severance Practices”), the Buyer will cause the Surviving Corporation to provide that such Company Employee shall be entitled to severance benefits from the Surviving Corporation that are equal to the greater of (i) the severance benefits that would have been paid under the Company Severance Practices as in existence on the date of this Agreement or (ii) the severance benefits payable under similar circumstances pursuant to a severance plan of the Buyer or its Affiliates as may be in effect at such time for similarly situated United States employees of the Buyer and its Affiliates and giving effect to the provisions of this Section 6.14.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including the foregoing Section 6.14(b) through Section 6.14(d)), no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to (i) confer upon any Company Employee any right to employment or continued employment with the Company, the Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates for any period, (ii) confer any remedies upon any Company Employee, or (iii) amend or alter any New Plan, any Old Plan or any agreement in effect on the date hereof, or entered into after the date hereof, between any Company Employee, on the one hand, and the Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand.

agreement (a “Superior Proposal Notice”) (it being understood that the Superior Proposal Notice shall not constitute a Company Board Recommendation Change or a Trigger Event for purposes of this Agreement); (iv) if requested by the Buyer, the Company shall have made its Representatives available to discuss with the Buyer’s Representatives any proposed modifications to the terms and conditions of this Agreement during the three (3) Business Day period following delivery by the Company to the Buyer of such Superior Proposal Notice; (v) if the Buyer shall have delivered to the Company a written, binding and irrevocable offer to alter the terms or conditions of this Agreement during such three (3) Business Day period, and the Company Board shall have determined in good faith, after considering the terms of such offer by the Buyer, that the Superior Proposal giving rise to such Superior Proposal Notice continues to be a Superior Proposal; and (vi) concurrently with the termination of this Agreement, the Company pays the Buyer the Termination Fee contemplated by Section 8.3(b)(ii) and enters into the definitive agreement to consummate the transaction contemplated by such Superior Proposal (it being understood that the Company need not comply with the foregoing procedures more than once with respect to any Superior Proposal, regardless of any amendment or modification thereof); or

(h) by the Buyer, if there has been a breach of or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would cause the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or 7.2(b) not to be satisfied, and (ii) shall not have been cured within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt by the Company of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from the Buyer; provided that neither the Buyer nor the Merger Subsidiary is then in material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement; or

(i) by the Company, if there has been a breach of or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Buyer or the Merger Subsidiary set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would cause the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) or 7.3(b) not to be satisfied, and (ii) shall not have been cured within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt by the Buyer of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from the Company, provided that the Company is not then in material breach of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement; or

(j) by the Company, if (i) the Average Buyer Stock Price as of any date (calculated as if, solely for purposes of such calculation, such date were the third trading day prior to the Effective Time) is less than the Minimum Average Buyer Stock Price and (ii) within three (3) Business Days after the Company’s request therefor, the Buyer fails to agree in writing that the Make-Whole Payment shall be equal to the Stock Value Shortfall calculated as of such date (notwithstanding the proviso in the definition of “Make-Whole Payment”).

8.2 Effect of Termination.

In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall immediately become void and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Buyer, the Company, the Merger Subsidiary or their respective officers, directors, stockholders or Affiliates; provided that, subject to Section 8.3(d), (a) any such termination shall not relieve any party from liability for any knowing and intentional breach of this Agreement and (b) the provisions of Sections 8.2 and 8.3 and Article IX of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement.

8.3 Fees and Expenses.

(a) Except as set forth in this Section 8.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated.

(b) The Company shall pay the Buyer a termination fee of $10,642,000 (the “Termination Fee”) in the event of the termination of this Agreement:

(i) by the Buyer pursuant to Section 8.1(f);

- 49 -

(ii) by the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(g); or

(iii) by either the Buyer or the Company pursuant to Section 8.1(d), so long as (A) before the date of the Company Meeting, an Acquisition Proposal shall have been publicly announced and not withdrawn and (B) within 12 months after the date of termination, the Company shall have consummated the transactions contemplated by an Acquisition Proposal (which Acquisition Proposal may, but need not be, the Acquisition Proposal referred to in clause (A) of this Section 8.3(b)(iii));

provided, however, that, for purposes of this Section 8.3(b), all references to “15%” in the definition of “Acquisition Proposal” shall be deemed to be references to “50%”; provided, further, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any Termination Fee if, at the time of termination of this Agreement, the Buyer or the Merger Subsidiary is in material breach of this Agreement. Any fee due under Section 8.3(b)(i) shall be paid to the Buyer by wire transfer of same-day funds within two Business Days after the date of termination of this Agreement. Any fee due under Section 8.3(b)(ii) shall be paid to the Buyer by wire transfer of same-day funds on the date of termination of this Agreement. Any fee due under Section 8.3(b)(iii) shall be paid to the Buyer by wire transfer of same-day funds within two Business Days after the date on which the transaction referenced in clause (B) of Section 8.3(b)(iii) is consummated.

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the Company be required to pay the Termination Fee on more than one occasion, whether or not the Termination Fee may be payable under more than one provision of this Agreement at the same or at different times and the occurrence of different events.

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 8.3 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties hereto would not enter into this Agreement. If the Company fails to pay to the Buyer when due hereunder a Termination Fee due to the Buyer, the Company shall pay the reasonable and documented costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of outside legal counsel) in connection with any successful action, including the filing of any lawsuit or other legal action, taken to collect payment, together with interest on the amount of any unpaid portion of the Termination Fee at the publicly announced prime rate of Bank of America plus five percent per annum, compounded quarterly, from the date such Termination Fee was required to be paid. Notwithstanding Section 8.2 or any other provision of this Agreement, payment of the Termination Fee described in this Section 8.3 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy of the Buyer and the Merger Subsidiary in connection with any termination of this Agreement in the circumstances in which the Termination Fee becomes payable. In the event that the Buyer shall receive the Termination Fee, the receipt of the Termination Fee shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for any and all losses or damages suffered or incurred by the Buyer, the Merger Subsidiary, any of their respective Affiliates or any other person in connection with this Agreement (and the termination hereof), the transactions contemplated hereby (and the abandonment thereof) or any matter forming the basis for such termination, and none of the Buyer, the Merger Subsidiary, any of their respective Affiliates or any other person shall be entitled to bring or maintain any other claim, action or proceeding against the Company or any of its Affiliates arising out of this Agreement, any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any matters forming the basis for such termination.

8.4 Amendment.

This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective Boards of Directors, at any time before or after approval of the matters presented in connection with the Merger by the stockholders of any party, but, after any such approval, no amendment shall be made which by law requires further approval by such stockholders without such further approval. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

8.5 Extension; Waiver.

At any time prior to the Effective Time, the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective Boards of Directors, may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the

- 50 -

obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party. Such extension or waiver shall not be deemed to apply to any time for performance, inaccuracy in any representation or warranty, or noncompliance with any agreement or condition, as the case may be, other than that which is specified in the extension or waiver. The failure of any party to this Agreement to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of such rights.

8.6 Procedure for Termination, Amendment, Extension or Waiver.

A termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, an amendment, modification or supplement of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.4 or an extension or waiver of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.5 shall, in order to be effective, require, in the case of the Merger Subsidiary or the Company, action by its Board of Directors or the duly authorized designee of its Board of Directors.

Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

EXHIBIT A – FORM OF COMPANY STOCKHOLDER AGREEMENT

This Stockholder Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 17, 2013, is entered into by and between Cynosure, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Buyer”), and the undersigned stockholder (“Stockholder”) of Palomar Medical Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Company, the Buyer and Commander Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Buyer (the “Merger Subsidiary”), are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), providing for, among other things, the merger (the “Merger”) of the Merger Subsidiary and the Company pursuant to the terms, and subject to the conditions, of the Merger Agreement;

WHEREAS, as a condition to its willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Buyer has required that Stockholder execute and deliver this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Buyer to enter into the Merger Agreement, Stockholder is willing to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”) owned beneficially and of record by Stockholder, as set forth below Stockholder’s signature on the signature page hereto (the “Original Shares” and, together with any additional shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the “Shares”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.	Definitions.

For purposes of this Agreement, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

2.	Representations of Stockholder.

Stockholder represents and warrants to the Buyer that:

(a) (i) Stockholder owns beneficially and of record all of the Original Shares free and clear of all Liens, except for any such Lien that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to affect adversely the ability of Stockholder to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and has the sole right to vote (or cause to be voted) the Original Shares, and (ii) except pursuant hereto, there are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character to which Stockholder is a party relating to the pledge, disposition or voting of any of the Original Shares and there are no voting trusts or voting agreements with respect to the Original Shares.

(b) Stockholder does not own beneficially or of record any shares of Company Common Stock other than (i) the Original Shares and (ii) any options, warrants or other rights to acquire any additional shares of Company Common Stock or any security exercisable for or convertible into shares of Company Common Stock, as set forth on the signature page of this Agreement (collectively, the “Options”).

(c) Stockholder has full corporate (or comparable) power and authority (if an entity) or the legal capacity (if a natural person) to enter into, execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform fully Stockholder’s obligations hereunder (including the proxy described in Section 3(b) below) and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Stockholder and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Stockholder, enforceable against Stockholder in accordance with its terms, subject to the Bankruptcy and Equity Exceptions.

(d) None of the execution and delivery of this Agreement by Stockholder, the consummation by Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby or compliance by Stockholder with any of the provisions hereof will conflict with or result in a breach, or constitute a default (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) under any provision of, any trust agreement, loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument or law applicable to Stockholder or to Stockholder’s property or assets, except for any such conflict or breach that (i) has been waived or cured prior to the date hereof or (ii) individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to affect adversely the ability of Stockholder to perform Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement.

(e) No consent, approval or authorization of, or designation, declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity or other person on the part of Stockholder is required in connection with the valid execution and delivery of this Agreement, except for any such consent, approval, authorization, designation, declaration or filing that (i) has been obtained or made (as applicable) prior to the execution and delivery hereof or (ii) if not obtained or made (as applicable), individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to affect adversely the ability of Stockholder to perform Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement. To the extent Stockholder is a natural person, no consent of Stockholder’s spouse is necessary under any “community property” or other laws in order for Stockholder to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement, except for any such consent that (A) has been obtained prior to the execution and delivery hereof or (B) if not obtained, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to affect adversely the ability of Stockholder to perform Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement.

3.	Agreement to Vote Shares; Irrevocable Proxy.

(a) Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees, from and after the date hereof and until the Termination Date, to vote the Shares (or execute a written consent or consents if stockholders of the Company are requested to vote their shares through the execution of an action by written consent in lieu of any such annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Company) and to cause any holder of record of Shares to vote such Shares (or execute such written consents): (i) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement, at every meeting (or in connection with any action by written consent) of the stockholders of the Company at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof; and (ii) against (1) any Acquisition Proposal and (2) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which would 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 Stockholder under this Agreement. Except as set forth in this Section 3, Stockholder shall not be restricted from voting in favor of, against or abstaining with respect to any matter presented to the stockholders of the Company.

(b) Stockholder hereby appoints the Buyer and any designee of the Buyer, and each of them individually, its proxies and attorneys-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or act by written consent during the term of this Agreement with respect to the Shares in accordance with Section 3(a). This proxy and power of attorney is given to secure the performance of the duties of Stockholder under this Agreement. Stockholder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy. This proxy and power of attorney granted by Stockholder shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by Stockholder with respect to the Shares. The power of attorney granted by Stockholder herein is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of Stockholder. The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.

4.	No Voting Trusts or Other Arrangement.

EXHIBIT B – FORM OF BUYER STOCKHOLDER AGREEMENT

This Stockholder Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of March 17, 2013, is entered into by and between Palomar Medical Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the undersigned stockholder (“Stockholder”) of Cynosure, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Buyer”).

WHEREAS, as a condition to its willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement, the Company has required that Stockholder execute and deliver this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement, Stockholder is willing to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements with respect to the shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Buyer (the “Buyer Common Stock”) owned beneficially and of record by Stockholder, as set forth below Stockholder’s signature on the signature page hereto (the “Original Shares” and, together with any additional shares of Buyer Common Stock pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the “Shares”).

1.	Definitions.

For purposes of this Agreement, capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

2.	Representations of Stockholder.

Stockholder represents and warrants to the Company that:

(a)(i) Stockholder owns beneficially and of record all of the Original Shares free and clear of all Liens, except for any such Lien that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to affect adversely the ability of Stockholder to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and has the sole right to vote (or cause to be voted) the Original Shares, and (ii) except pursuant hereto, there are no options, warrants or other rights, agreements, arrangements or commitments of any character to which Stockholder is a party relating to the pledge, disposition or voting of any of the Original Shares and there are no voting trusts or voting agreements with respect to the Original Shares.

(b) Stockholder does not own beneficially or of record any shares of Buyer Common Stock other than (i) the Original Shares and (ii) any options, warrants or other rights to acquire any additional shares of Buyer Common Stock or any security exercisable for or convertible into shares of Buyer Common Stock, as set forth on the signature page of this Agreement (collectively, the “Options”).

3.	Agreement to Vote Shares; Irrevocable Proxy.

(a) Stockholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees, from and after the date hereof and until the Termination Date, to vote the Shares (or execute a written consent or consents if stockholders of the Buyer are requested to vote their shares through the execution of an action by written consent in lieu of any such annual or special meeting of stockholders of the Buyer) and to cause any holder of record of Shares to vote such Shares (or execute such written consents): (i) in favor of the Buyer Voting Proposal and the Buyer Equity Plan Proposal; and (ii) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement which would reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Buyer under the Merger Agreement or of Stockholder under this Agreement. Except as set forth in this Section 3, Stockholder shall not be restricted from voting in favor of, against or abstaining with respect to any matter presented to the stockholders of the Buyer.

(b) Stockholder hereby appoints the Company and any designee of the Company, and each of them individually, its proxies and attorneys-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to vote or act by written consent during the term of this Agreement with respect to the Shares in accordance with Section 3(a). This proxy and power of attorney is given to secure the performance of the duties of Stockholder under this Agreement. Stockholder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy. This proxy and power of attorney granted by Stockholder shall be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy and shall revoke any and all prior proxies granted by Stockholder with respect to the Shares. The power of attorney granted by Stockholder herein is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of Stockholder. The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.

4.	No Voting Trusts or Other Arrangement.

Stockholder agrees that Stockholder will not, and will not permit any entity under Stockholder’s control to, deposit any of the Shares in a voting trust, grant any proxies with respect to the Shares or subject any of the Shares to any arrangement with respect to the voting of the Shares, other than (a) agreements entered into with the Company or any of its Affiliates (which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall have the meaning set forth in

Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) and (b) the granting of a proxy or proxies to vote the Shares on any matter (except for the matters described in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 3(a) above) at any annual meeting of the Buyer’s stockholders.

5.	Transfer and Encumbrance.

Stockholder agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Stockholder will not, directly or indirectly, transfer, sell, offer, exchange, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber (“Transfer”) any of the Shares or enter into any contract, option or other agreement with respect to, or consent to, a Transfer of, any of the Shares or Stockholder’s voting or economic interest therein. Any attempted Transfer of Shares or any interest therein in violation of this Section 5 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 5 shall not prohibit a Transfer of the Shares by Stockholder (a) if Stockholder is a natural person, to any person who is a family member of Stockholder (as the term “family member” is defined by Form S-8 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor or comparable form)) or upon the death of Stockholder, (b) pursuant to any written trading plan in effect on the date of this Agreement intended to satisfy the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, (c) to an Affiliate of Stockholder, or (d) after the record date for determining the stockholders eligible to vote at the Buyer Meeting, as set forth in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus; provided, that a Transfer referred to in clauses (a) and (c) of this sentence shall be permitted only if, as a precondition to such Transfer, the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement.

6.	Additional Shares.

Stockholder agrees that all shares of Buyer Common Stock that Stockholder purchases, acquires the right to vote or otherwise acquires ownership beneficially or of record (excluding shares of Buyer Common Stock underlying unexercised or unvested Options) of after the execution of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and shall constitute Shares for all purposes of this Agreement.

FIRST: The name of the Corporation is: PALOMAR MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

SECOND: The address of the Corporation’s registered office in the State of Delaware is Corporation Trust Center, 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx of Xxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000. The name of its registered agent at such address is The Corporation Trust Company.

THIRD: The nature of the business or purposes to be conducted or promoted by the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

FOURTH: The total number of shares of stock which the Corporation shall have authority to issue is 100 shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share.

The number of authorized shares of Common Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock of the Corporation entitled to vote, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware.

FIFTH: In furtherance of and not in limitation of powers conferred by statute, it is further provided:

1. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.

2. Election of directors need not be by written ballot.

SIXTH: The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend, alter or repeal the By-Laws of the Corporation.

SEVENTH: Except to the extent that the General Corporation Law of Delaware prohibits the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty, no director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as a director, notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such liability. No amendment to or repeal of this provision shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of the Corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director occurring prior to such amendment.

EIGHTH: The Corporation shall provide indemnification as follows:

1. Actions, Suits and Proceedings Other than by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is a party or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was, or has agreed to become, a director, officer or advisory council member of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee, agent or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) (all such persons being referred to hereafter as an “Indemnitee”), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses,

judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974), and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

2. Actions or Suits by or in the Right of the Corporation. The Corporation shall indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was, or has agreed to become, a director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, partner, employee, agent or trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan), or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and, to the extent permitted by law, amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal therefrom, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made under this Section 2 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation, unless, and only to the extent, that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which the Court of Chancery of Delaware or such other court shall deem proper.

3. Indemnification for Expenses of Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article, to the extent that an Indemnitee has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Sections 1 and 2 of this Article EIGHTH, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, or on appeal from any such action, suit or proceeding, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, if any action, suit or proceeding is disposed of, on the merits or otherwise (including a disposition without prejudice), without (i) the disposition being adverse to Indemnitee, (ii) an adjudication that Indemnitee was liable to the Corporation, (iii) a plea of guilty or nolo contendere by Indemnitee, (iv) an adjudication that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and (v) with respect to any criminal proceeding, an adjudication that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, Indemnitee shall be considered for the purposes hereof to have been wholly successful with respect thereto.

4. Notification and Defense of Claim. As a condition precedent to an Indemnitee’s right to be indemnified, such Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnitee for which indemnity will or could be sought. With respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee. After notice from the Corporation to Indemnitee of its election so to assume such defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, other than as provided below in this Section 4. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his or her own counsel in connection with such

- 2 -

action, suit, proceeding or investigation, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Corporation, (ii) counsel to Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any significant issue between the Corporation and Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation or (iii) the Corporation shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or investigation, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel for Indemnitee shall be at the expense of the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Article. The Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of Indemnitee, to assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or as to which counsel for Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion provided for in clause (ii) above. The Corporation shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee under this Article EIGHTH for any amounts paid in settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation effected without its written consent. The Corporation shall not settle any action, suit, proceeding or investigation in any manner which would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. Neither the Corporation nor Indemnitee will unreasonably withhold or delay its consent to any proposed settlement.

5. Advance of Expenses. Subject to the provisions of Section 6 of this Article EIGHTH, in the event of any threatened or pending action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the Corporation receives notice under this Article, any expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by or on behalf of an Indemnitee in defending an action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom shall be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such matter; provided, however, that the payment of such expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in advance of the final disposition of such matter shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay all amounts so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in this Article; and further provided that no such advancement of expenses shall be made under this Article EIGHTH if it is determined (in the manner described in Section 6) that (i) Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation, or (ii) with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful. Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the financial ability of Indemnitee to make such repayment.

6. Procedure for Indemnification. In order to obtain indemnification or advancement of expenses pursuant to Sections 1, 2, 3 or 5 of this Article EIGHTH, an Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request. Any such advancement of expenses shall be made promptly, and in any event within 60 days after receipt by the Corporation of the written request of Indemnitee, unless (i) the Corporation has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 4 of this Article EIGHTH (and none of the circumstances described in Section 4 of this Article EIGHTH that would nonetheless entitle the Indemnitee to indemnification for the fees and expenses of separate counsel have occurred) or (ii) the Corporation determines within such 60-day period that Indemnitee did not meet the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1, 2 or 5 of this Article EIGHTH, as the case may be. Any such indemnification, unless ordered by a court, shall be made with respect to requests under Section 1 or 2 only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination by the Corporation that the indemnification of Indemnitee is proper because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Sections 1 or 2, as the case may be. Such determination shall be made (a) by a majority vote of the directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question (“disinterested directors”), whether or not a quorum, (b) by a committee of disinterested directors designated by majority vote of disinterested directors, whether or not a quorum, (c) if there are no disinterested directors, or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular legal counsel to the Corporation) in a written opinion, or (d) by the stockholders of the Corporation.

7. Remedies. The right to indemnification or advancement of expenses as granted by this Article shall be enforceable by Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification is proper in the

- 3 -

circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to Section 6 of this Article EIGHTH that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. In any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall have the burden of proving that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article. Indemnitee’s expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred in connection with successfully establishing Indemnitee’s right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any suit brought by Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder it shall be a defense that the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

8. Limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, except as set forth in Section 7 of this Article EIGHTH, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee pursuant to this Article EIGHTH in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, and in the event the Corporation makes any indemnification payments to an Indemnitee and such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, such Indemnitee shall promptly refund such indemnification payments to the Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

9. Subsequent Amendment. No amendment, termination or repeal of this Article or of the relevant provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or any other applicable laws shall adversely affect or diminish in any way the rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification under the provisions hereof with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such amendment, termination or repeal.

10. Other Rights. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement or vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in Indemnitee’s official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office for the Corporation, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of Indemnitee. Nothing contained in this Article shall be deemed to prohibit, and the Corporation is specifically authorized to enter into, agreements with officers and directors providing indemnification rights and procedures different from those set forth in this Article. In addition, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by its Board of Directors, grant indemnification rights to other employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than, those set forth in this Article.

11. Partial Indemnification. If an Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Article to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a portion of the expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation and any appeal therefrom but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion of such expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) or amounts paid in settlement to which Indemnitee is entitled.

12. Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee, advisory council member or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint

- 4 -

venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) against any expense, liability or loss incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

13. Savings Clause. If this Article or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to any expenses (including attorneys’ fees), liabilities, losses, judgments, fines (including excise taxes and penalties arising under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including an action by or in the right of the Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this Article that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

14. Definitions. Terms used herein and defined in Section 145(h) and Section 145(i) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in such Section 145(h) and Section 145(i).

NINTH: The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or hereafter prescribed by statute and this Certificate of Incorporation, and all rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this reservation.

ARTICLE I

STOCKHOLDERS

1.1 Place of Meetings. All meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place as may be designated from time to time by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the President or, if not so designated, at the principal office of the corporation. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, determine that a meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication in a manner consistent with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

1.2 Annual Meeting. The annual meeting of stockholders for the election of directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting shall be held on a date and at a time designated by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the President (which date shall not be a legal holiday in the place where the meeting is to be held).

1.3 Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders for any purpose or purposes may be called at any time by only the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the President, and may not be called by any other person or persons. The Board of Directors may postpone or reschedule any previously scheduled special meeting of stockholders. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of meeting.

1.4 Notice of Meetings. Except as otherwise provided by law, notice of each meeting of stockholders, whether annual or special, shall be given not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given to stockholders, any notice shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to (in a manner consistent with the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware) by the stockholder to whom the notice is given. The notices of all meetings shall state the place, if any, date and time of the meeting and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting. The notice of a special meeting shall state, in addition, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. If notice is given by mail, such notice shall be deemed given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the stockholder at such stockholder’s address as it appears on the records of the corporation. If notice is given by electronic transmission, such notice shall be deemed given at the time specified in Section 232 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

1.5 Voting List. The Secretary shall prepare, at least 10 days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting: (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a physical location (and not solely by means of remote communication), then the list shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. The list shall presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.

1.6 Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-laws, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of the capital stock of the corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person, present by means of remote communication in a manner, if any, authorized by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business; provided, however, that where a separate vote by a class or classes or

series of capital stock is required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of such class or classes or series of the capital stock of the corporation issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on such matter, present in person, present by means of remote communication in a manner, if any, authorized by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to the vote on such matter. A quorum, once established at a meeting, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum.

1.7 Adjournments. Any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned from time to time to any other time and to any other place at which a meeting of stockholders may be held under these By-laws by the chairman of the meeting or by the stockholders present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote, although less than a quorum. It shall not be necessary to notify any stockholder of any adjournment of less than 30 days if the time and place, if any, of the adjourned meeting, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting, are announced at the meeting at which adjournment is taken, unless after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting. At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting.

1.8 Voting and Proxies. Each stockholder shall have one vote for each share of stock entitled to vote held of record by such stockholder and a proportionate vote for each fractional share so held, unless otherwise provided by law or the Certificate of Incorporation. Each stockholder of record entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders, or to express consent or dissent to corporate action without a meeting, may vote or express such consent or dissent in person (including by means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting) or may authorize another person or persons to vote or act for such stockholder by a proxy executed or transmitted in a manner permitted by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware by the stockholder or such stockholder’s authorized agent and delivered (including by electronic transmission) to the Secretary of the corporation. No such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from the date of its execution, unless the proxy expressly provides for a longer period.

1.9 Action at Meeting. When a quorum is present at any meeting, any matter other than the election of directors to be voted upon by the stockholders at such meeting shall be decided by the vote of the holders of shares of stock having a majority in voting power of the votes cast by the holders of all of the shares of stock present or represented at the meeting and voting affirmatively or negatively on such matter (or if there are two or more classes or series of stock entitled to vote as separate classes, then in the case of each such class or series, the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of that class or series present or represented at the meeting and voting affirmatively or negatively on such matter), except when a different vote is required by law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these By-laws. When a quorum is present at any meeting, any election by stockholders of directors shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote on the election.

1.10 Conduct of Meetings.

(a) Chairman of Meeting. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board, if any, or in the Chairman’s absence by the Vice Chairman of the Board, if any, or in the Vice Chairman’s absence by the Chief Executive Officer, or in the Chief Executive Officer’s absence, by the President, or in the President’s absence by a Vice President, or in the absence of all of the foregoing persons by a chairman designated by the Board of Directors, or in the absence of such designation by a chairman chosen by vote of the stockholders at the meeting. The Secretary shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in the Secretary’s absence the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

(b) Rules, Regulations and Procedures. The Board of Directors may adopt by resolution such rules, regulations and procedures for the conduct of any meeting of stockholders of the corporation as it shall deem appropriate including, without limitation, such guidelines and procedures as it may deem appropriate regarding the participation by means of remote communication of stockholders and proxyholders not physically present at a

- 2 -

meeting. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules, regulations and procedures as adopted by the Board of Directors, the chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the Board of Directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iii) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as shall be determined; (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to be held in accordance with the rules of parliamentary procedure.

1.11 Action without Meeting.

(a) Taking of Action by Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders of the corporation may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on such action were present and voted. Except as otherwise provided by the Certificate of Incorporation, stockholders may act by written consent to elect directors; provided, however, that, if such consent is less than unanimous, such action by written consent may be in lieu of holding an annual meeting only if all of the directorships to which directors could be elected at an annual meeting held at the effective time of such action are vacant and are filled by such action.

(b) Electronic Transmission of Consents. A telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission consenting to an action to be taken and transmitted by a stockholder or proxyholder, or by a person or persons authorized to act for a stockholder or proxyholder, shall be deemed to be written, signed and dated for the purposes of this section, provided that any such telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission sets forth or is delivered with information from which the corporation can determine (i) that the telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission was transmitted by the stockholder or proxyholder or by a person or persons authorized to act for the stockholder or proxyholder and (ii) the date on which such stockholder or proxyholder or authorized person or persons transmitted such telegram, cablegram or electronic transmission. The date on which such telegram, cablegram or electronic transmission is transmitted shall be deemed to be the date on which such consent was signed. No consent given by telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission shall be deemed to have been delivered until such consent is reproduced in paper form and until such paper form shall be delivered to the corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State of Delaware, its principal place of business or an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to a corporation’s registered office shall be made by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations on delivery, consents given by telegram, cablegram or other electronic transmission may be otherwise delivered to the principal place of business of the corporation or to an officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded if, to the extent and in the manner provided by resolution of the Board of Directors. Any copy, facsimile or other reliable reproduction of a consent in writing may be substituted or used in lieu of the original writing for any and all purposes for which the original writing could be used, provided that such copy, facsimile or other reproduction shall be a complete reproduction of the entire original writing.

(c) Notice of Taking of Corporate Action. Prompt notice of the taking of corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing and who, if the action had been taken at a meeting, would have been entitled to notice of the meeting if the record date for such meeting had been the date that written consents signed by a sufficient number of holders to take the action were delivered to the corporation.

2.14 Action by Consent. Any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board of Directors or committee, as the case may be, consent to the action in writing or by electronic transmission, and the written consents or electronic transmissions are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee.

Each such committee shall keep minutes and make such reports as the Board of Directors may from time to time request.

Except as otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, these By-laws, or the

- 5 -

resolution of the Board of Directors designating the committee, a committee may create one or more subcommittees, each subcommittee to consist of one or more members of the committee, and delegate to a subcommittee any or all of the powers and authority of the committee.

2.16 Compensation of Directors. Directors may be paid such compensation for their services and such reimbursement for expenses of attendance at meetings as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine. No such payment shall preclude any director from serving the corporation or any of its parent or subsidiary entities in any other capacity and receiving compensation for such service.

4.2 Stock Certificates; Uncertificated Shares. The shares of the corporation shall be represented by certificates, provided that the Board of Directors may provide by resolution or resolutions that some or all of any or all classes or series of the corporation’s stock shall be uncertificated shares. Every holder of stock of the corporation represented by certificates shall be entitled to have a certificate, in such form as may be prescribed by law and by the Board of Directors, representing the number of shares held by such holder registered in certificate form. Each such certificate shall be signed in a manner that complies with Section 158 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

Each certificate for shares of stock which are subject to any restriction on transfer pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation, these By-laws, applicable securities laws or any agreement among any number of stockholders or among such holders and the corporation shall have conspicuously noted on the face or back of the certificate either the full text of the restriction or a statement of the existence of such restriction.

If the corporation shall be authorized to issue more than one class of stock or more than one series of any class, the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights shall be set forth in full or summarized on the face or back of each certificate representing shares of such class or series of stock, provided that in lieu of the foregoing requirements there may be set forth on the face or back of each certificate representing shares of such class or series of stock a statement that the corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests a copy of the full text of the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights.

Within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of uncertificated shares, the corporation shall send to the registered owner thereof a written notice containing the information required to be set forth or stated on certificates pursuant to Sections 151, 202(a) or 218(a) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or, with respect to Section 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, a statement that the corporation will furnish without charge to each stockholder who so requests the powers, designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights of each class of stock or series thereof and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such preferences and/or rights.

Transfers of shares of stock of the corporation shall be made only on the books of the corporation or by transfer agents designated to transfer shares of stock of the corporation. Subject to applicable law, shares of stock represented by certificates shall be transferred only on the books of the corporation by the surrender to the corporation or its transfer agent of the certificate representing such shares properly endorsed or accompanied by a written assignment or power of attorney properly executed, and with such proof of authority or the authenticity of signature as the corporation or its transfer agent may reasonably require. Except as may be otherwise required by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these By-laws, the corporation shall be entitled to treat the record holder of stock as shown on its books as the owner of such stock for all purposes, including the payment of dividends and the right to vote with respect to such stock, regardless of any transfer, pledge or other disposition of such stock until the shares have been transferred on the books of the corporation in accordance with the requirements of these By-laws.

4.4 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. The corporation may issue a new certificate of stock in place of any previously issued certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon such terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may prescribe, including the presentation of reasonable evidence of such loss, theft or destruction and the giving of such indemnity and posting of such bond as the Board of Directors may require for the protection of the corporation or any transfer agent or registrar.

4.5 Record Date. The Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as a record date for the determination of the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or to express consent (or dissent) to corporate action without a meeting, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful action. Such record date shall not precede the date on which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and such record date shall not be more than 60 nor less than 10 days before the date of such meeting (with respect to the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of such meeting), nor more than 10 days after the date of adoption of a record date for a consent without a meeting, nor more than 60 days prior to any other action to which such record date relates.

If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day before the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day before the day on which the meeting is held. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is necessary, shall be the day on which the first consent is properly delivered to the corporation. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any other purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating to such purpose.

A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.
