Erh, exception types should include an inner exception parameter, for the generic one they wrap. So neither of your two examples are all that great.

If you don't have any special handling, then why are you catching it at all?

That was the "//Do stuff" part, you may want to do some cleanup (in C# usually handled by a finally block or a "using" block), send a custom notification, logging (usually I would just let the client handle logging), etc.
