"Agreement"), is entered into among Boston Scientific Corporation, a Delaware
corporation ("Parent"), Nemo I Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a
wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Purchaser"), and David B. Berger
("Stockholder").

                  WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, Stockholder owns
beneficially and of record the shares (the "Owned Shares") and options (the
"Stock Options") to purchase shares as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto
(such Owned Shares and Stock Options, collectively, the "Stockholder's Equity")
of common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock"), of Rubicon Medical
Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company");

                  WHEREAS, pursuant to an agreement dated July 17, 2003 (the
"Term Sheet") among Parent, the Company, Stockholder, Richard J. Linder
("Linder") and Berger Family Enterprises, a Utah family limited partnership
("Berger Enterprises"), Parent purchased 2,000,000 shares of the Company's
Common Stock for $2 million in cash (the "First Equity Investment");

                  WHEREAS, Parent, Purchaser and the Company have entered into a
transaction agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the "Transaction Agreement";
capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the
respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Transaction Agreement),
providing that, among other things, concurrently with the execution of the
Transaction Agreement, Parent or Purchaser shall purchase, and the Company shall
issue to Parent or Purchaser, 1,090,147 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock for $15 million in cash, which shall be convertible into such number of
shares of Common Stock that, when aggregated with the Common Stock issued
pursuant to the First Equity Investment, shall constitute 18% of the Common
Stock on a Fully Diluted Basis as of the date of issuance of the Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock;

                  WHEREAS, as a condition to the willingness of Parent and
Purchaser to enter into the Transaction Agreement, Parent and Purchaser have
requested that Stockholder agree, and, in order to induce Parent and Purchaser
to enter into the Transaction Agreement, Stockholder has agreed herein (i) to
grant an option to Parent and Purchaser to purchase the Stockholder's Equity
payable in cash (the "Purchase Option") and (ii) that Parent may require
Stockholder, in lieu of selling its Stockholder's Equity to Parent or Purchaser
as described in clause (i), to tender its Owned Shares into the Offer (as
defined below) in exchange for, at the option of Parent or Purchaser, either
cash or shares of common stock of Parent, par value $0.01 per share ("Parent
Common Stock") (such option, the "Offer Option") (the Purchase Option and the
Offer Option, collectively, the "Options");

                  WHEREAS, in the event the Purchase Option is exercised, as
soon as practicable after the closing of the acquisition by Purchaser of the
Stockholder's Equity pursuant to the exercise of the Purchase Option, Purchaser
shall, in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Agreement, commence a
cash tender offer (the "Cash Tender Offer") to acquire all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock upon the terms and subject to the conditions
of the Transaction Agreement and the Cash Tender Offer; and

                  WHEREAS, in the event the Offer Option is exercised, as soon
as practicable after Purchaser gives written notice to each of Stockholder,
Linder, Berger Enterprises and Richard J. and Marla A. Linder Family Limited
Partnership, a Utah family limited partnership (collectively, the "Controlling
Stockholders"), of its exercise of the Offer Option, Purchaser shall commence an
exchange offer or the Cash Tender Offer (either such exchange offer or the Cash
Tender Offer, as the case may be, the "Offer") to acquire all of the issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock upon the terms and subject to the conditions
of the Transaction Agreement and the Offer.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the
mutual agreements and covenants set forth herein and in the Transaction
Agreement, the parties hereto agree as follows:

                                   Article I
                               THE PURCHASE OPTION

SECTION 1.01. Grant of the Purchase Option. Stockholder hereby grants to Parent
and Purchaser an exclusive and irrevocable option to purchase the Stockholder's
Equity, payable in an amount of cash equal to $2.00 per share of Common Stock,
and, subject to the provisions of Section 1.03, with respect to each Stock
Option, the positive difference between $2.00 and the price per share of Common
Stock for which such Stock Option is exercisable (the "Cash Purchase Price")
(the Cash Purchase Price, together with any rights to receive additional
consideration pursuant to Sections 5.03 and 5.04 of the Transaction Agreement,
the "Purchase Option Consideration").

SECTION 1.02. Exercise of the Purchase Option. Provided that (a) to the extent
necessary, any applicable waiting periods (and any extension thereof) under the
HSR Act with respect to the exercise of the Purchase Option shall have expired
or been terminated and (b) no preliminary or permanent injunction or other
order, decree or ruling issued by any Governmental Authority prohibiting the
exercise of the Purchase Option or the delivery of Stockholder's Equity shall be
in effect, Parent or Purchaser may exercise the Purchase Option at any time
during the Option Period with respect to all of the Stockholder's Equity. To
exercise the Purchase Option, Parent or Purchaser shall give written notice (the
date of such notice being herein called the "Notice Date") to Stockholder
specifying a place and date (not later than ten Business Days and not earlier
than two Business Days following the Notice Date) for closing such purchase (the
"Closing"). Subject to the delivery by Stockholder of the documents described in
Section 1.04(b), the Closing of the Purchase Option shall occur as promptly as
practicable following the Notice Date; provided that if the conditions set forth
in clause (a) or (b) of the first sentence of this Section 1.02 have not been
satisfied, Parent or Purchaser may extend the date for the Closing (the
"Purchase Option Closing Date") as necessary for the satisfaction of the
conditions set forth in clause (a) or (b) of the first sentence of this Section
1.02 up to but not exceeding the date that is 180 days following the Notice
Date, after which all rights of Parent and Purchaser to acquire the
Stockholder's Equity in accordance with this Section 1.02 shall terminate.

SECTION 1.03. Vested Options. Stockholder agrees to exercise, upon written
notice from Parent or Purchaser, Stockholder's vested Stock Options upon the
earliest date permitted by the relevant Stock Option Plan. All Stockholder's
Equity resulting from the exercise of such vested options automatically shall
become subject to the Purchase Option that may be exercised by Parent or
Purchaser pursuant to the terms of Section 1.02. Nothing herein shall preclude
Stockholder from exercising Stockholder's vested Stock Options prior to receipt
of notice from Purchaser, and the Stockholder's Equity resulting from such
independent exercise automatically shall become subject to the Options which may
be exercised by Parent or Purchaser pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 1.04. Payment for and Delivery of Certificates. If Parent or Purchaser
elects to exercise the Purchase Option, at the Closing, (a) Parent or Purchaser
shall pay the Purchase Option Consideration for the Stockholder's Equity by wire
transfer in immediately available funds equal to the Cash Purchase Price to an
account designated by Stockholder by written notice to Parent or Purchaser and
(b) Stockholder shall deliver to Purchaser (i) a stock certificate or
certificates evidencing the Owned Shares, (ii) a certificate of Stockholder
certifying that the representations and warranties of Stockholder contained in
this Agreement are true and correct as of the Closing as if made on the Purchase
Option Closing Date, (iii) a certificate of a duly authorized officer of the
Company certifying on behalf of the Company (with no liability to such officer
individually in the absence of fraud or gross negligence) that the
representations and warranties of the Company in the Transaction Agreement that
are qualified as to materiality or Company Material Adverse Effect are true and
correct and the representations and warranties that are not so qualified are
true and correct in all material respects, in each case as if such
representations and warranties were made as of the Purchase Option Closing Date,
and (iv) written evidence, satisfactory to Parent, of the cancellation of the
Stock Options. All such stock certificates evidencing shares of the Common Stock
delivered pursuant to this Section 1.04 shall be duly endorsed in blank, or with
appropriate stock powers, duly executed in blank, attached thereto, in proper
form for transfer, with the signature of Stockholder thereon guaranteed, and
with all applicable taxes paid or provided for.

                                   Article II
                                THE OFFER OPTION

SECTION 2.01. Tender of the Owned Shares Pursuant to the Offer Option. If Parent
elects to exercise the Offer Option, Stockholder agrees to tender and sell (and
not withdraw prior to termination or expiration of the Offer or the termination
of the Transaction Agreement) its shares of Common Stock and to comply with the
provisions of Section 5.01 of the Transaction Agreement regarding its Stock
Options pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Offer and the
Transaction Agreement, as each may be amended from time to time.

SECTION 2.02. Exercise of the Offer Option. Parent or Purchaser may exercise the
Offer Option at any time during the Option Period with respect to all of the
Owned Shares by giving written notice to Stockholder stating that Parent or
Purchaser is exercising the Offer Option. If Parent or Purchaser exercises the
Offer Option, the Offer will be commenced in accordance with the terms and
conditions of the Transaction Agreement.

                                  Article III
                            OPTION TERM; TERMINATION

SECTION 3.01. Term. Each of the Purchase Option and the Offer Option shall
expire if not exercised prior to the end of the period that commences on the
date of this Agreement and terminates on the 90th day following written notice
by the Company or Parent of the achievement of Milestone 1, which notice shall
be accompanied by satisfactory documentation evidencing such achievement (the
"Option Period").

SECTION 3.02. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further
force and effect if the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with
its terms.

                                   Article IV

acquisition of Stockholder's Equity pursuant to the Purchase Option or the Offer
Option, at the Closing, Stockholder shall deliver good and valid title to the
Stockholder's Equity free and clear of all security interests, liens, claims,

SECTION 8.03. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is
invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public
policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless
remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of
the Options is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon
such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or
incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to
modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as
closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the Options be
consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

SECTION 8.04. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Transaction Agreement
constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written

SECTION 8.05. Parties in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon and

shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise
payable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder of Shares such amounts as it is
required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under
the Code, or any provision of state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent
that amounts are so withheld by the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as the case

such deduction and withholding was made by the Surviving Corporation or Parent,
as the case may be.

SECTION 8.08. Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended except by an
instrument in writing signed by Parent, Purchaser and Stockholder.

of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not
subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its
property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is
brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or
that this Agreement or the Options may not be enforced in or by any of the

party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not,
in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (b)
acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto have been induced to enter
into this Agreement and the Options, as applicable, by, among other things, the
mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 8.10.
