“holder”), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase from EnteroMedics Inc. (herein called the “Company”), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware,
                    
(                    )1 fully paid and nonassessable shares (“Shares”) of common stock (herein the “Common
Stock”) (subject to the limitation in Section 2(b) and to adjustment as noted below) at the exercise price of $[            ]2 per Share (the “Warrant Purchase Price”) (subject to
adjustment as noted below). This Warrant may only be exercised during the Exercise Period specified herein. This Warrant has been issued together with Shares of the Common Stock in a public offering of 12,000,000 Shares of the Common Stock and
12,000,000 Warrants registered on the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 10, 2010, as
amended (the “Offering”). 
 This Warrant is subject to the following provisions, terms and conditions:

 1. The Warrant exercise period (the “Exercise Period”) for this Warrant shall begin on the date that is 181
days from the date of the issuance of this Warrant at the closing of the Offering and shall end on the fifth anniversary of the date on which the Exercise Period begins. 
 2. The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof as follows: 
 (a) The rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the holder hereof, in whole or in part, by written notice of exercise delivered to the Company and by the surrender of this Warrant (properly
endorsed if required) at the principal office of the Company and upon payment to it by check of the Warrant Purchase Price for such Shares. The Company agrees that the Shares so purchased shall be and are deemed to be issued to the holder hereof as
the record owner of such Shares as of the close of business on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for such Shares as aforesaid. Subject to the provisions of the next succeeding paragraph, within 10 business
days after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been exercised the Company shall cause its transfer agent to issue the Shares of stock so 

 

	1	 Equal to number of shares of common stock purchased by Purchaser. 



	2	 Equal to 125% of the original purchase price paid for the common stock. 









 
purchased to Purchaser in book–entry format and deliver evidence of such issuance to Purchaser, and, unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant representing the number of Shares, if any,
with respect to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be delivered to the holder hereof within such time. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Warrant, no holder shall be permitted to exercise this Warrant for an amount of Common Stock that would result in such holder owning more than 19.99% of the
Company’s Common Stock outstanding after such exercise. 
 3. The Company represents and warrants that this Warrant has
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, has been duly executed and delivered and is a legal and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, except to the extent
(i) such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ and contracting parties’ rights generally and (ii) such enforceability may be subject to
general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The Company covenants and agrees that all Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant according to the terms hereof or represented by the Common Stock will, upon issuance and payment therefor, be duly authorized and issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Company further covenants and agrees that during the period within
which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issue or transfer upon exercise of the subscription rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number
of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, free from preemptive rights or other actual contingent purchase rights other than those held by a holder of this Warrant (as a result of holding
this Warrant). 
 4. The Company will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to the issuance of Shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the registration of any certificates for Warrants, or shares of Common
Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant, in a name other than that of the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall be responsible for all other tax liability that may arise as a result of holding or transferring this Warrant or receiving Shares of Common
Stock upon exercise hereof. 
 5. The above provisions are, however, subject to the following: 

(a) The Warrant Purchase Price shall, from and after the date of issuance of this Warrant, be subject to adjustment from
time to time as hereinafter provided. Upon each adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price, the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at the Warrant Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of Shares
obtained by multiplying the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of Shares purchasable pursuant hereto immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the warrant purchase price
resulting from such adjustment.

 (b) In
case the Company shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced, and conversely, in case
the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the Warrant Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased. 

(c) If any capital reorganization or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, shall be effected in such a way
that holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive stock or securities with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, then, as a condition of such reorganization, reclassification or consolidation, lawful and adequate provision shall be
made whereby the holder hereof shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant and in lieu of the Shares of the Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore
purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby, such shares of stock or securities as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number
of shares of such stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby had such reorganization, reclassification or consolidation not taken place, and in any such case appropriate provision
shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the holder of this Warrant to the end that the provisions hereof (including without limitation provisions for adjustments of the warrant purchase price and of the number of shares purchasable
upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any shares of stock or securities thereafter deliverable upon the exercise hereof. 

(d) Upon any adjustment of the Warrant Purchase Price or any adjustment of any material terms hereof, then and in each
such case an officer of the Company shall, as soon as practicable after the occurrence of any event that requires an adjustment or readjustment, give signed written notice thereof, by first–class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the
registered holder of this Warrant at the address of such holder as shown on the books of the Company, which notice shall state the Warrant Purchase Price resulting from such adjustment, any material change in the terms of the Warrant, and the
increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based. 

(e) In case any time: 
 (i) there shall be any capital reorganization, or reclassification of the capital stock of the Company; or 
 (ii) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company; 
 then, in any one or more of said cases, the Company shall give written notice, by first–class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the registered holder of

this Warrant at the address of such holder as shown on the books of the Company, of the date on which (A) the books of the Company shall close or a record shall be taken for such
distribution or subscription rights, or (B) such reorganization, reclassification or consolidation, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or conversion or redemption shall take place, as the case may be. Such notice shall also specify the
date as of which the holders of capital stock of record shall participate in such distribution or subscription rights, or shall be entitled to exchange their capital stock for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or conversion or redemption, as the case may be. Such written notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the action in question and not less than 20 days prior to the
record date or the date on which the Company’s transfer books are closed in respect thereto. 
 (f) If any
event occurs as to which in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company the other provisions of this Section 5 are not strictly applicable or if strictly applicable would not fairly protect the purchase rights of the holder of this
Warrant or of Common Stock in accordance with the essential intent and principles of such provisions, then the Board of Directors shall make an adjustment in the application of such provisions, in accordance with such essential intent and
principles, so as to protect such purchase rights as aforesaid. 
 6. This Warrant shall not entitle the holder hereof to any
voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. 
 7. This Warrant may not be sold, offered for sale, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise transferred and must be held by the Purchaser until it is exercised for Shares of Common Stock in accordance with paragraphs 1 and 2 above. 
 8. This Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the holder hereof at the principal office of the Company, for new Warrants of like tenor representing in the aggregate the right to subscribe
for and purchase the number of shares which may be subscribed for and purchased hereunder, each of such new Warrants to represent the right to subscribe for and purchase such number of shares as shall be designated by said holder hereof at the time
of such surrender. 
 9. This Warrant has been registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from
such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant may be transferred and sold in reliance on the Registration Statement. The Company will attempt to maintain the
effectiveness of a current prospectus covering the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants until the expiration of the Warrants. 
 10. The Company will not be required upon the exercise of this Warrant to issue fractions of shares of Common Stock, but may, at its option, either (a) purchase such fraction for an amount in cash
equal to the current value of such fraction computed on the basis of the closing market price of a share of Common Stock as quoted on the principal exchange or trading

facility on which shares of Common Stock are traded on the trading day immediately preceding the day upon which this Warrant was surrendered for exercise in accordance with Section 2 hereof,
or (b) issue the required share. By accepting this Warrant, the holder hereof expressly waives any right to receive any fractional share upon exercise of a Warrant, except as expressly provided in this Section 10. 

11. If this Warrant is exercised for less than all of the then-current number of shares purchasable hereunder, then the Company shall,
concurrently with the issue of the Shares of stock purchased by Purchaser upon such exercise in accordance with Section 2, issue a new warrant exercisable for the remaining number of shares purchasable under this Warrant. 

12. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant
and security reasonably satisfactory to it, the Company shall execute and deliver a new warrant of like tenor as the Warrant so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated. 
 13. All questions concerning this Warrant will be governed and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the internal law, not the law of conflicts, of the State of Delaware.
