"As a growing organization with worldwide operations, we need a corporate controller with a vast array of global financial expertise," said Mr. Gersuk. "We believe that Wayne's 18 years of experience in a variety of financial management and accounting positions have prepared him to assume the many functions that our corporate controller will need to supervise. Wayne spent 10 years in roles of escalating responsibility at MapInfo Corporation. During his tenure there, he garnered a skill set that allowed him to manage the treasury, financial planning, audit, tax, information technology and Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements, among a host of other responsibilities. With his excellent track record and extensive experience, we believe Wayne will be immediately additive to our organization. We look forward to his contributions."

Prior to joining AngioDynamics, Mr. McDougall spent 10 years in the finance organization of MapInfo Corporation. MapInfo was acquired by Pitney Bowes, Inc. in April 2007.

After six years in this position, Mr. McDougall was promoted to vice president and CFO. As CFO, he was a key advisor to the CEO and the Board of Directors, establishing financial goals, strategic plans and policies and participating in the evaluation of several acquisition candidates.
