Sole Prime Sumdoku

Between two cells, a numeric clue means two things:

1. Exactly one of those cells contains a prime number.
2. The sum of those cells equals the number in the circle.

A diamond between the cells means that both numbers are prime, or neither number is prime.

Since sums reveal a lot of information and diamonds reveal much less, the two together lead to a nice class of puzzles.  For those unfamiliar with primes, you only need know that the first three primes are 2, 3, 5.  As usual the solution, together with a higher quality PDF, are available below.  In addition, each puzzle is available separately in case anyone would like larger cells to work with.
