DE-REGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SHARES AND WITHDRAWAL OF REGISTRATION

STATEMENT

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Candela Corporation's Registration Statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-134977), filed on June 13, 2006 (the " Registration Statement "), is filed to withdraw from registration all securities of Candela Corporation (the " Registrant ") covered by the Registration Statement.

 

On January 5, 2010, the entire equity interest of the Registrant was acquired by Syneron Medical Ltd. (" Syneron ") through the merger of an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Syneron with and into the Registrant (the " Merger ").  As a result of the Merger, every share of the Registrant's Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, outstanding prior to the Merger was converted into the right to receive 0.2911 ordinary shares of Syneron.  Accordingly, there are no longer any outstanding equity securities of the Registrant other than those owned by Syneron, and the offering pursuant to the Registration Statement has been terminated.
