Disputes that Solta Medical and DeBenedictis agree to arbitrate, and thereby agree to waive any right to trial by jury, include any statutory claims under local state, or federal law, including, but not limited to claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the Older Workers Benefits Protection Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Workers Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the California Family Rights Act, the California Labor Code, claims of harassment, discrimination, and wrongful termination, and any statutory or common law claims.

In the case of DeBenedictis, mailed notices will be addressed to him at the home address which he most recently communicated to Solta Medical in writing. In the case of Solta Medical, mailed notices will be addressed to its corporate headquarters, and all notice will be directed to the attention of its President.

NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENT

THIS NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is being executed and delivered as of July 6, 2008 by Leonard C. DeBenedictis (“Stockholder”) in favor of and for the benefit of Thermage, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Thermage”). All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Thermage, Reliant Acquisition Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Merger Sub”), Reliant Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Reliant”), and certain other parties are entering into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of the date hereof, and as may be amended from time to time (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Reliant will be merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub as the surviving company (the “Merger”); and

WHEREAS, Stockholder has a substantial interest in Reliant as the holder of a significant number of shares of Reliant Capital Stock, and, as a result of the Merger, Stockholder shall receive significant consideration;

WHEREAS, Stockholder has been offered and, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, has accepted employment with Thermage or the Surviving Company (“Employer”), contingent upon the execution of certain agreements, including this Agreement;

WHEREAS, Thermage and Stockholder mutually desire that the entire goodwill of Reliant be transferred to Thermage as part of the Merger and acknowledge that the parties explicitly considered the value of the goodwill transferred and it was valued as a component of the consideration of the Merger. Thermage and Stockholder agree that Thermage’s failure to receive the entire goodwill contemplated by the Merger would have the effect of reducing the value of Reliant to Thermage;

WHEREAS, Thermage and Stockholder both agree that, prior to the Merger, Reliant’s business consisted of the design, development, manufacture, production, marketing and sales of the Reliant Products related to the Business in the Restricted Territory (as defined below), and Thermage represents and Stockholder understands that, following the Merger, Thermage will continue conducting the Business in the Restricted Territory; and

WHEREAS, as a condition and mutual inducement to the Merger, and to preserve the value and goodwill of the Business being acquired by Thermage after the Merger, the Merger Agreement contemplates, among other things, that Stockholder shall enter into this Agreement and that this Agreement shall become effective at the Effective Time.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Certain Definitions. In this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(a) “Business” means the business of developing, designing, manufacturing, producing, marketing, or selling the Reliant Products in the [aesthetic laser] market, including those products or services that Reliant is currently developing or has made a substantial and demonstrable effort to develop.

(b) “Restricted Territory” means each and every country, province, state, city, or other political subdivision of the world in which Reliant or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates is currently engaged in, currently plans to engage in, or engages in during the Term, a Competing Business Purpose.

2. Effective Date. This Agreement shall be effective as of the Effective Time. This Agreement shall be null and void if the Merger Agreement is terminated.

3. Non-Competition. Stockholder acknowledges that in order to protect and preserve the value and goodwill of the business of Reliant being transferred to Thermage as part of the Merger, a post-termination employment restriction is reasonable, as without such a restriction, Stockholder’s employment or engagement with one of the competitors identified herein would detrimentally, irreversibly, and immeasurably diminish the value and goodwill of the Business. Thus, both to ensure that the value and goodwill related to the Business being transferred to Thermage as part of the Merger is protected and preserved, and to avoid the actual or threatened misappropriation of Reliant’s trade secrets and confidential information, Stockholder agrees that during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of (i) the second (2^nd) anniversary of the Closing Date, or (ii) one year following the date Stockholder’s employment with Employer (or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Employer) is terminated without “Cause” or Stockholder resigns from such employment for “Good Reason” (as such terms are defined in the Change of Control and Severance Agreement between Thermage and Stockholder dated July 6, 2008) (the “Term”), Stockholder shall not (other than in connection with his employment services to Employer or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof or their respective successors or assigns), without the prior written consent of Thermage, directly or indirectly;

(a) engage, on his own behalf or on behalf of any other Person, anywhere in the Restricted Territory in any business (including research and development), operations, activities and/or services that are related to the Business or that provide the Reliant Products as such exist as of the Closing Date, including those products or services that Reliant has not yet developed but has made a substantial and demonstrable effort to develop (a “Competing Business Purpose”);

(b) be or become an officer, director, stockholder, owner, affiliate, salesperson, co-owner, partner, trustee, promoter, technician, engineer, analyst, employee, agent, representative, supplier, contractor, consultant, advisor or manager of or to, or otherwise acquire or hold any interest in, or participate in or facilitate the financing, operation, management or control of, any firm, partnership, corporation, Person, entity, or business that engages or participates in a Competing Business Purpose in the Restricted Territory, including the promotion of investments in an entity which participates in a Competing Business Purpose in the Restricted Territory;

2

(c) solicit or attempt to solicit any of Reliant’s customers for, or in connection with, a Competing Business Purpose, including any attempts to obtain a confidential customer list or any other Reliant trade secrets; or

d) provide any service (as an employee, consultant, or otherwise), product, support, or technology to any Person engaged in a Competing Business Purpose in the Restricted Territory;

provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or restrict Stockholder from: (i) owning as a passive investment less than 1% of the outstanding shares of the capital stock of a publicly traded corporation that is engaged in a Competing Business so long as Stockholder is not otherwise associated with such corporation; or (ii) any activity consented to in writing by Thermage.

4. Non-Solicitation. To preserve the value and goodwill of the Business being transferred to Thermage as part of the Merger, Stockholder agrees that during the Term, Stockholder shall not, without the prior written consent of Thermage, solicit, encourage, or take any other action, directly or indirectly, that is intended to induce or encourage, or has the effect of inducing or encouraging, any employee of the Surviving Company or Thermage (to the extent said employee was formerly employed by the Reliant), or any Subsidiary of the Surviving Company or Thermage (to the extent said employee was formerly employed by Reliant), to (i) leave his or her employment with Surviving Company or Thermage, or any Subsidiary of Surviving Company or Thermage, or any of their respective successors or assigns, or (ii) engage in any activity in which Stockholder would, under the provisions of Section 3 hereof, be prohibited from engaging; provided, however, that for purposes of this Agreement, the placement of general advertisements that may be targeted to a particular geographic or technical area but that are not specifically targeted toward employees of Surviving Company or Thermage or any Subsidiary of Surviving Company or Thermage or their respective successors or assigns (to the extent said employees were formerly employed by Reliant), shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Section 4.

5. Stockholder Acknowledgements.

(a) Stockholder acknowledges that (i) Stockholder has a substantial interest in Reliant as the holder of a significant number of shares of Reliant Capital Stock and is a key and significant member of the management and technical workforce of Reliant; (ii) the goodwill associated with the existing business, customers, and assets of Reliant prior to the Merger is an integral component of the value of Reliant to Thermage and is reflected in the consideration payable to Stockholder in connection with the Merger, and (iii) Stockholder’s agreement as set forth herein is necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of Thermage in the Merger and to preserve the value and goodwill of Reliant for Thermage following the Merger.

(b) Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that the limitations of time, geography, and scope of activity agreed to in this Agreement are reasonable because, among other things: (i) Reliant and Thermage are engaged in a highly competitive industry, (ii) Stockholder has had unique access to the trade secrets and know-how of Reliant and Thermage, including, without limitation, the plans and strategy (and, in particular, the competitive strategy)

3

(c) Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that (i) the execution and delivery and continuation in force of this Agreement is a material inducement to Thermage to execute the Merger Agreement; (ii) breach of this Agreement will be such that Parent will not have an adequate remedy at law because of the unique nature of the operations and assets being conveyed to Thermage; and (iii) execution of this Agreement shall not limit Thermage’s or Surviving Company’s employee policies, including, without limitation, the provisions set forth in Thermage’s and Surviving Company’s confidentiality and proprietary information agreements.

(d) Stockholder further acknowledges and agrees that (i) as of the Effective Time Stockholder will be subject to Thermage’s confidential information and trade secret protection policies and agrees to comply with such policies, (ii) Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain in effect if Stockholder’s employment with Employer is terminated for any or no reason (though, as set forth in Section 3, the length of the Term may be shortened depending on the circumstances of such termination), and (iii) during the Term, prior to becoming an employee or partner of or consultant to any Person, Stockholder will provide written notice of such employment, partnership, or consultancy to Thermage and provide such Person with an executed copy of this Agreement. Stockholder agrees that the Term shall be tolled during any period of violation of the covenants contained in Section 3 or Section 4.

6. Remedy. Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that (a) the rights of Thermage under this Agreement are of a specialized and unique character and that immediate and irreparable damage will result to Thermage if Stockholder fails to or refuses to perform his obligations under this Agreement and (b) Thermage may, in addition to any other remedies and damages available, obtain an injunction to restrain any such failure or refusal. No single exercise of the foregoing remedies shall be deemed to exhaust Thermage’s right to such remedies, but the right to such remedies shall continue undiminished and may be exercised from time to time as often as Thermage may elect.

7. Non-Exclusivity. The rights and remedies of Thermage hereunder are not exclusive of or limited by any other rights or remedies that Thermage hereunder may have, whether at law, in equity, by Contract, or otherwise, all of which shall be cumulative (and not alternative). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the rights and remedies of Thermage hereunder, and the obligations and liabilities of Stockholder hereunder, are in addition to their respective rights, remedies, obligations, and liabilities under the law of unfair

competition, misappropriation of trade secrets, and the like. This Agreement does not limit Stockholder’s obligations or the rights of Thermage (or any Affiliate of Thermage) under the terms of any other agreement between Stockholder and Thermage or any Affiliate of Thermage.

8. Termination of Employment. Stockholder’s obligations under this Agreement shall not be eliminated or diminished by the termination of Stockholder’s employment with Employer, or any of its Affiliates, as the case may be, for any reason, including as a result of Stockholder’s resignation (though, as set forth in Section 3, the length of the Term may be shortened depending on the circumstances of such termination).

9. General Provisions.

(a) Severability of Covenants. The covenants contained in Section 3 hereof shall be construed as a series of separate covenants, one for each country, province, state, city or other political subdivision of the Restricted Territory. Except for geographic coverage, each such separate covenant shall be deemed identical in terms to the covenant contained in Section 3 hereof. If, in any judicial proceeding, a court refuses to enforce any of such separate covenants (or any part thereof), then Thermage, the Surviving Company and Stockholder agree that such unenforceable covenant (or such part) shall be eliminated from this Agreement to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants (or portions thereof) to be enforced. In the event that the provisions of Section 3 or Section 4 are deemed to exceed the time, geographic or scope limitations permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, then Thermage, the Surviving Company and Stockholder agree that such provisions shall be reformed to the maximum time, geographic, or scope limitations, as the case may be, permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

(b) Independence of Obligations. The covenants and obligations of Stockholder set forth in this Agreement shall be construed as independent of any other agreement or arrangement between Stockholder, on the one hand, and Thermage, the Surviving Company, or any Subsidiary of Thermage or Surviving Corporation, on the other.

(c) Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made if and when delivered personally or by overnight courier to the parties at the following addresses or sent by electronic transmission, with confirmation received, to the telecopy numbers specified below (or at such other address or telecopy number for a party as shall be specified by like notice):

(j) Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

(k) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(l) Invalid Provisions. If any term or 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 nonetheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement 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 transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
