          (a) The admission of such Shares to listing on all stock exchanges on which the Company’s
Common Stock is then listed; and

          (b) The completion of any registration or other qualification of such shares under any state

Participant.

paid on the Shares (or other securities at the time held in escrow pursuant to Section 4.1 and the
Joint Escrow Instructions) and any and all shares of the Company’s Common Stock, capital stock or
other securities or other property received by or distributed to Participant with respect to, in
exchange for or in substitution of the Shares as a result of any stock dividend, stock split,
reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, or similar change in the
capital structure of the Company shall also be subject to the Repurchase Option (as defined in
Section 3.1 below) and the restrictions on transfer in Section 3.4 below until such restrictions on
the underlying Shares

A-2

 

lapse or are removed pursuant to this Agreement (or, if such Shares are no longer outstanding,
until such time as such Shares would have been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option
pursuant to this Agreement). In addition, in the event of any merger, consolidation, share
exchange or reorganization affecting the Company’s Common Stock, including, without limitation, a
Acquisition, then any new, substituted or additional securities or other property (including money
paid other than as a regular cash dividend) that is by reason of any such transaction received with
respect to, in exchange for or in substitution of the Shares shall also be subject to the
Repurchase Option (as defined in Section 3.1 below) and the restrictions on transfer in Section 3.4
below until such restrictions on the underlying Shares lapse or are removed pursuant to this
Agreement (or, if such Shares are no longer outstanding, until such time as such Shares would have
been released from the Company’s Repurchase Option pursuant to this Agreement). Any such assets or
other securities received by or distributed to Participant with respect to, in exchange for or in
substitution of any Unreleased Shares shall be immediately delivered to the Company to be held in
escrow pursuant to Section 4.1.

ARTICLE III

RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES

     3.1 Repurchase Option. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2 below, if Participant
has a Termination of Service (as defined below) for any or no reason before all of the Shares are
released from the Company’s Repurchase Option (as defined below), the Company shall, upon the date
of such Termination of Service (as reasonably fixed and determined by the Company), have an
irrevocable, exclusive option, but not the obligation, for a period of ninety (90) days after the
date Participant has a Termination of Service, to repurchase all or any portion of the Unreleased
Shares (as defined below in Section 3.3) at such time (the “Repurchase Option”) at the original
cash purchase price per share (the “Repurchase Price”). The Repurchase Option shall lapse and
terminate ninety (90) days after the Participant’s Termination of Service. The Repurchase Option
shall be exercisable by the Company by written notice to Participant or Participant’s executor
(with a copy to the escrow agent appointed pursuant to Section 4.1 below) and shall be exercisable,
at the Company’s option, by delivery to Participant or Participant’s executor with such notice of a
check in the amount of the Repurchase Price times the number of Shares to be repurchased (the
“Aggregate Repurchase Price”). Upon delivery of such notice and the payment of the Aggregate
Repurchase Price, the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Shares being
repurchased and all rights and interests therein or relating thereto, and the Company shall have
the right to retain and transfer to its own name the number of Shares being repurchased by the
Company. In the event the Company repurchases any Shares under this Section 3.1, any assets or
other securities received by or distributed to Participant with respect to, in exchange for or in
substitution of such Shares and held by the escrow agent pursuant to Section 4.1 and the Joint
Escrow Instructions shall be promptly paid by the escrow agent to the Company.

     3.2 Release of Shares from Repurchase Restriction. The Shares shall be released from
the Company’s Repurchase Option as indicated in the Grant Notice. Any of the Shares released from
the Company’s Repurchase Option shall thereupon be released from the restrictions on transfer under
Section 3.4.

A-3

 

     3.3 Unreleased Shares. Any of the Shares which, from time to time, have not yet been
released from the Company’s Repurchase Option are referred to herein as “Unreleased Shares.”

     3.4 Restrictions on Transfer.

          (a) Subject to Section 3.4(b), no Unreleased Shares or any interest or right therein or part
thereof shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of Participant or his or her
successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation,
pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or
involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or
equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null
and void and of no effect.

          (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, with the consent of the Committee,
the Unreleased Shares may be transferred to certain persons or entities related to Participant,
including but not limited to members of Participant’s family, charitable institutes or trusts or
other entities whose beneficiaries or beneficial owners are members of Participant’s family or to
such other persons or entities as may be expressly approved by the Committee (each a “Permitted
Transferee”), pursuant to such conditions and procedures as the Committee may require.

     3.5 Definition of Termination of Service. “Termination of Service” shall mean the
time when the service relationship (whether as an Employee, a member of the Board or a Consultant)
between Participant and the Company or any Subsidiary is terminated for any reason, with or without
cause, including, but not by way of limitation, a termination by resignation, discharge, death or
disability; but excluding (a) a termination where there is a simultaneous reemployment or
continuing employment or consultancy of Participant by the Company or any Subsidiary or a parent
corporation thereof (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code), (b) at the discretion of the
Committee, a termination which results in a temporary severance of the employee-employer
relationship, and (c) a termination which is followed by the simultaneous establishment of a
consulting relationship by the Company or a Subsidiary with the former Employee. The Committee, in
its absolute discretion, shall determine the effect of all matters and questions relating to
Termination of Service for the purposes of this Agreement, including, but not by way of limitation,
the question of whether, for Participants who are Employees of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, a Termination of Service resulted from a discharge for cause, and all questions of
whether particular leaves of absence for Participants who are Employees of the Company or any of
its Subsidiaries constitute Terminations of Service. Notwithstanding any other provision of the

terminate Participant’s employment and/or consultancy at any time for any reason whatsoever, with
or without cause, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between

ARTICLE IV

ESCROW OF SHARES

     4.1 Escrow of Shares. To insure the availability for delivery of Participant’s
Unreleased Shares upon repurchase by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase Option under Section
3.1, Participant hereby appoints the Secretary of the Company, or any other person designated by
the Committee as escrow agent, as his or her attorney-in-fact to assign and transfer unto the
Company, such Unreleased Shares, if any, repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Repurchase
Option pursuant to Section 3.1, and shall, upon execution of this Agreement, deliver and deposit
with the Secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Committee, any share
certificates representing the Unreleased Shares, together with the stock assignment duly endorsed
in blank, attached to the Grant Notice as Exhibit C to the Grant Notice. The Unreleased
Shares and stock assignment shall be held by the Secretary of the Company, or such other person
designated by the Committee, in escrow, pursuant to the Joint Escrow Instructions of the Company
and Participant attached as Exhibit D to the Grant Notice, until the Company exercises its
Repurchase Option as provided in Section 3.1, until such Unreleased Shares are released from the
Company’s Repurchase Option, or until such time as this Agreement no longer is in effect. Upon
release of the Unreleased Shares, the escrow agent shall deliver to Participant the certificate or
certificates representing such Shares in the escrow agent’s possession belonging to Participant in
accordance with the terms of the Joint Escrow Instructions attached as Exhibit D to the
Grant Notice, and the escrow agent shall be discharged of all further obligations hereunder;
provided, however, that the escrow agent shall nevertheless retain such certificate or certificates
as escrow agent if so required pursuant to other restrictions imposed pursuant to this Agreement.
If the Shares are held in book entry form, then such entry will reflect that the Shares are subject
to the restrictions of this Agreement. If any assets or other securities received by or
distributed to Participant with respect to, in exchange for or in substitution of such Unreleased
Shares are held by the escrow agent pursuant to this Section 4.1 and the Joint Escrow Instructions,
such assets or other securities shall also be subject to the restrictions set forth in this
Agreement and held in escrow pending release of the Unreleased Shares with respect to which such
assets or other securities relate from the Company’s Repurchase Option (or, if such Unreleased
Shares are no longer outstanding, until such time as such Unreleased Shares would have been
released from the Company’s Repurchase Option pursuant to this Agreement).

     4.2 Transfer of Repurchased Shares. Participant hereby authorizes and directs the
Secretary of the Company, or such other person designated by the Committee, to transfer the
Unreleased Shares as to which the Repurchase Option has been exercised from Participant to the
Company.

     4.3 No Liability for Actions in Connection with Escrow. The Company, or its designee,
shall not be liable for any act it may do or omit to do with respect to holding the Shares in
escrow and while acting in good faith and in the exercise of its judgment.

ARTICLE V

OTHER PROVISIONS

     5.1 Adjustment for Stock Split. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split,
reverse stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, or similar change in the
capital structure of the Company, the Committee shall make appropriate and equitable adjustments in
the Unreleased Shares subject to the Repurchase Option and the number of Shares, consistent with
any

A-5

 

adjustment under Section 11.1 of the Plan. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply, to
the full extent set forth herein with respect to the Shares, to any and all shares of capital stock
or other securities which may be issued in respect of, in exchange for, or in substitution of the
Shares, and shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividends, splits, reverse splits,
combinations, recapitalizations and the like occurring after the date hereof.

     5.2 Taxes. Participant has reviewed with Participant’s own tax advisors the federal,
state, local and foreign tax consequences of this investment and the transactions contemplated by
the Grant Notice and this Agreement. Participant is relying solely on such advisors and not on any
statements or representations of the Company or any of its agents. Participant understands that
Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for Participant’s own tax liability that may
arise as a result of this investment or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Participant understands that Participant will recognize ordinary income for federal income tax
purposes under Section 83 of the Code as and when the restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this
context, “restriction” includes the right of the Company to repurchase the Shares pursuant to its
Repurchase Option set forth in Section 3.1. Participant understands that Participant may elect to
be taxed for federal income tax purposes at the time the Shares are purchased rather than as and
when the Repurchase Option lapses by filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Code with the
Internal Revenue Service within thirty (30) days from the date of purchase. A form of election
under Section 83(b) of the Code is attached to the Grant Notice as Exhibit E.

     PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS PARTICIPANT’S SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND NOT THE COMPANY’S TO
TIMELY FILE THE ELECTION UNDER SECTION 83(b), EVEN IF PARTICIPANT REQUESTS THE COMPANY OR ITS
REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE THIS FILING ON PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF

     5.3 Administration. The Committee shall have the power to interpret the Plan and this
Agreement and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the
Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules. All actions
taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Committee in good faith shall be final
and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the
Committee shall be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good
faith with respect to the Plan, this Agreement or the Shares. In its absolute discretion, the Board
may at any time and from time to time exercise any and all rights and duties of the Committee under
the Plan and this Agreement.

     5.4 Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.

          (a) Any share certificate(s) evidencing the Shares issued hereunder shall be endorsed with the
following legend and any other legends that may be required by state or federal securities laws:

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO A RIGHT OF REPURCHASE IN
FAVOR OF THE COMPANY AND MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF A
RESTRICTED STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE

A-6

 

COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE SECRETARY OF THE
COMPANY.

          (b) Participant agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to
herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if
any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to
the same effect in its own records.

          (c) The Company shall not be required: (i) to transfer on its books any shares of the
Company’s Common Stock that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the
provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) to treat as owner of such shares of Common Stock or to accord
the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such shares shall
have been so transferred.

     5.5 Notices. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to the Company
shall be addressed to the Company in care of the Secretary of the Company, and any notice to be
given to Participant shall be addressed to Participant at the address given beneath Participant’s
signature on the Grant Notice. By a notice given pursuant to this Section 5.5, either party may
hereafter designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any notice shall be
deemed duly given when sent via email or when sent by certified mail (return receipt requested) and
deposited (with postage prepaid) in a post office or branch post office regularly maintained by the
United States Postal Service.

     5.6 Titles. Titles are provided herein for convenience only and are not to serve as a
basis for interpretation or construction of this Agreement.

     5.7 Construction. This Agreement shall be administered, interpreted and enforced
under the laws of the State of California without regard to conflicts of laws thereof. Should any
provision of this Agreement be determined by a court of law to be illegal or unenforceable, the
other provisions shall nevertheless remain effective and shall remain enforceable.

     5.8 Conformity to Securities Laws. Participant acknowledges that the Plan is intended
to conform to the extent necessary with all provisions of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
and any and all regulations and rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission
thereunder, and state securities laws and regulations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Plan shall be administered, and the Shares are to be issued, only in such a manner as
to conform to such laws, rules and regulations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Plan and this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws,
rules and regulations.

     5.9 Amendments. This Agreement may not be modified, amended or terminated except by
an instrument in writing, signed by Participant and by a duly authorized representative of the
Company.

     5.10 Successors and Assigns. The Company may assign any of its rights under this
Agreement to single or multiple assignees, and this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the
successors and assigns of the Company. Subject to the restrictions on transfer herein set forth,
this

A-7

 

Agreement shall be binding upon Participant and his or her heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     As escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) for both VNUS Medical Technologies, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and the undersigned recipient of stock of the Company (the
“Participant”), you are hereby authorized and directed to hold in escrow the documents delivered to
you pursuant to the terms of that certain Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) between
the Company and the undersigned (the “Escrow”), including the stock certificate and the Assignment
in Blank, in accordance with the following instructions:

     1. In the event the Company and/or any assignee of the Company (referred to collectively for
convenience herein as the “Company”) exercises the Company’s Repurchase Option as defined in the
Agreement), the Company shall give to Participant and you a written notice specifying the number of
shares of stock to be purchased, the purchase price and the time for a closing hereunder at the
principal office of the Company. Participant and the Company hereby irrevocably authorize and
direct you to close the transaction contemplated by such notice in accordance with the terms of
said notice.

     2. As of the date of closing of the repurchase indicated in such notice, you are directed (a)
to date the stock assignments necessary for the repurchase and transfer in question, (b) to fill in
the number of shares being repurchased and transferred, and (c) to deliver the same, together with
the certificate evidencing the shares of stock to be repurchased and transferred, to the Company or
its assignee.

     3. Participant irrevocably authorizes the Company to deposit with you any certificates
evidencing shares of stock to be held by you hereunder and any additions and substitutions to said
shares as defined in the Agreement. Participant does hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint you
as Participant’s attorney-in-fact and agent for the term of this escrow to execute with respect to
such securities all documents necessary or appropriate to make such securities negotiable and to
complete any transaction herein contemplated, including but not limited to the filing with any
applicable state blue sky authority of any required applications for consent to, or notice of
transfer of, the securities. Subject to the provisions of this paragraph and the Agreement,
Participant shall exercise all rights and privileges of a stockholder of the Company while the
stock is held by you.

     4. Upon written request of Participant, but no more than once per calendar month, unless the
Company’s Repurchase Option has been exercised, you will deliver to Participant a

D-1

 

certificate or certificates representing so many shares of stock as are not then subject to
the Repurchase Option. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the termination of the Company’s
Repurchase Option in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, you will deliver to Participant a
certificate or certificates representing the aggregate number of shares held or issued pursuant to
the Agreement and not repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Option set forth in Section 3.1 of the
Agreement.

     5. If at the time of termination of this escrow you should have in your possession any
documents, securities, or other property belonging to Participant, you shall deliver all of the
same to the Participant and shall be discharged of all further obligations hereunder.

     6. Your duties hereunder may be altered, amended, modified or revoked only by a writing signed

by all of the parties hereto.

     7. You shall be obligated only for the performance of such duties as are specifically set
forth herein and may rely and shall be protected in relying or refraining from acting on any
instrument reasonably believed by you to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the
proper party or parties. You shall not be personally liable for any act you may do or omit to do
hereunder as Escrow Agent or as attorney-in-fact for Participant while acting in good faith, and
any act done or omitted by you pursuant to the advice of your own attorneys shall be conclusive
evidence of such good faith.

     8. You are hereby expressly authorized to disregard any and all warnings given by any of the
parties hereto or by any other person or corporation, excepting only orders or process of courts of
law and are hereby expressly authorized to comply with and obey orders, judgments or decrees of any
court. In case you obey or comply with any such order, judgment or decree, you shall not be liable
to any of the parties hereto or to any other person, firm or corporation by reason of such
compliance, notwithstanding any such order, judgment or decree being subsequently reversed,
modified, annulled, set aside, vacated or found to have been entered without jurisdiction.

     9. You shall not be liable in any respect on account of the identity, authorities or rights of
the parties executing or delivering or purporting to execute or deliver the Agreement or any
documents or papers deposited or called for hereunder.

     10. You shall not be liable for the expiration of any rights under any applicable state,
federal or local statute of limitations or similar statute or regulation with respect to these
Joint Escrow Instructions or any documents deposited with you.

     11. You shall be entitled to employ such legal counsel and other experts as you may deem
necessary properly to advise you in connection with your obligations hereunder, may rely upon the
advice of such counsel, and may pay such counsel reasonable compensation therefor. The Company will
reimburse you for any reasonable attorneys’ fees with respect thereto.

     12. Your responsibilities as Escrow Agent hereunder shall terminate if you shall cease to be
an officer or agent of the Company or if you shall resign by written notice to each party. In the
event of any such termination, the Company shall appoint a successor Escrow Agent.

D-2

 

     13. If you reasonably require other or further instruments in connection with these Joint
Escrow Instructions or obligations in respect hereto, the necessary parties hereto shall join in
furnishing such instruments.

     14. It is understood and agreed that should any dispute arise with respect to the delivery
and/or ownership or right of possession of the securities held by you hereunder, you are authorized
and directed to retain in your possession without liability to anyone all or any part of said
securities until such disputes shall have been settled either by mutual written agreement of the
parties concerned or by a final order, decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
after the time for appeal has expired and no appeal has been perfected, but you shall be under no
duty whatsoever to institute or defend any such proceedings.

     15. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement to the Company shall be addressed
to the Company in care of the Secretary of the Company, and any notice to be given to the
Participant or you shall be addressed to the address given beneath Participant’s and your
signatures on the signature page to this Agreement. By a notice given pursuant to this Section 15,
any party may hereafter designate a different address for notices to be given to that party. Any
notice, which is required to be given to Participant, shall, if the Participant is then deceased,
be given to Participant’s designated beneficiary, if any by written notice under this Section 15.
Any notice shall be deemed duly given when sent via email or when sent by certified mail (return
receipt requested) and deposited (with postage prepaid) in a post office or branch post office
regularly obtained by the United States Postal Service.

     16. By signing these Joint Escrow Instructions, you become a party hereto only for the purpose
of said Joint Escrow Instructions; you do not become a party to the Agreement.

     17. This instrument shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and
their respective successors and permitted assigns.

accordance with, the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflicts of law thereof.
