 3.1 Introduction. The first sentence of the introduction to the Amended SVB/Borrower
Loan Agreement reads as follows: 
 THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”) dated as of the Effective Date among SILICON VALLEY BANK, a California corporation (“SVB”), COMPASS HORIZON FUNDING COMPANY LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (“HTF”), and VENTURE LENDING & LEASING V, INC., a Maryland corporation (“VLL”), on the one side, and
ENTEROMEDICS INC, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), on the other, provides the terms on which Lenders shall lend to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Lenders. 
 Said sentence of the Amended SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows: 
 THIS LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of the Effective Date among SILICON VALLEY BANK,
a California corporation (“SVB”), and ENTEROMEDICS INC, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), provides the terms on which Lender has lent to Borrower and Borrower shall repay Lender. 
 3.2 Repayment of Term Loan. A portion of Section 2.1.1(d) of the Amended SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement reads as follows:

 Borrower shall repay each Term Loan in 30 consecutive equal monthly payments, each consisting of the interest required to
be paid with respect to such Term Loan pursuant to subsection “c” above plus a portion of the principal of such Term Loan, in the amount necessary to fully amortize such Term Loan over such period (such amount to be calculated by Facility
Agent), commencing on July 1, 2009 (the “Term Loan Amortization Date”) and continuing on the Payment Date of each month thereafter until December 1, 2011 (the “Term Loan Maturity
Date”)... 
  

 2 








 Said portion of Section 2.1.1(d) of the Amended SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read
as follows: 
 Borrower shall repay the remaining outstanding amount of the Term Loan with a payment of $383,532.28 on
February 1, 2010 and in consecutive equal monthly payments, each in the amount of $380,421.13, commencing on March 1, 2010 and continuing on the Payment Date of each month thereafter until December 1, 2011 (the “Term Loan
Maturity Date”)... 
 3.3 Definition of “Lenders”. Section 2.1.1(i) of the Amended
SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: 
 Definition of
“Lenders”. References in this Agreement to “Lender” or “Lenders” shall refer to SVB. 
 3.4 Interest Rate. Section 2.3(a) of the Amended SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement reads as follows: 
 (a) Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amounts outstanding under the Term Loans shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate equal to (i) the sum of twelve
percent (12.0%) plus the applicable LIBOR Margin through the date immediately prior to the Term Loan Amortization Date, and (ii) the sum of eleven percent (11.00%) plus the applicable LIBOR Margin on and after the Term Loan
Amortization Date; which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.3(f) below. For purposes of the foregoing, the LIBOR Margin to be used in determining the fixed interest rates applicable to the Term Loans made by SVB and
VLL shall calculated differently than the LIBOR Margin to be used in determining the fixed interest rates applicable to the Additional Term Loan. For purposes of the Term Loans made by SVB and VLL, “LIBOR Margin” shall
mean the percentage points (or fraction thereof), if any, by which the one month “London interbank offered rate, or Libor”, as reported in the Money Rates section of the Wall Street Journal published on the fifth Business Day prior
to the earliest Funding Date of the Term Loans made by SVB and VLL, exceeds 2.46%. For purposes of the Additional Term Loan, “LIBOR Margin” shall have the same meaning as in the prior sentence except that the one month
“London interbank offered rate, or Libor”, shall be as reported in the Money Rates section of the Wall Street Journal published on the fifth Business Day prior to the Funding Date of the Additional Term Loan. As examples applicable
to the Term Loans made by SVB and VLL and the Additional Term Loan, if on the applicable date such London interbank offered rate is equal to or less than 2.46%, then the LIBOR Margin shall be zero and the fixed per

  

 3 








 
annum interest rate applicable to the Term Loans shall be 12% until the Term Loan Amortization Date and 11% after the Term Loan Amortization Date, but if on such date such London interbank
offered rate is 2.54%, then the LIBOR Margin shall be 0.08 percentage points and the fixed per annum interest rate applicable to the Term Loans shall be 12.08% until the Term Loan Amortization Date and 11.08% after the Term Loan Amortization Date.
Facility Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error in calculation, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Term Loans in accordance with the foregoing.

 Effective February 1, 2010, said Section 2.3(a) of the Amended SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows: 
 (a) Interest Rate. Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding under the Term Loan shall
accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate equal to ten percent (10%), which interest shall be payable monthly in accordance with Section 2.3(f) below. 
 3.5 Security Interest in Excluded Collateral. The second sentence of Section 4.3 of the Amended SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement reads in part as follows: 
 If Borrower shall ever fail to have Five Months Remaining Liquidity, then the Excluded Collateral shall from that time forward
(automatically, without the need for any notice or other action) be deemed to be included within the definition of “Collateral” hereunder... 
 Said part of the second sentence of Section 4.3 of the Amended SVB/Borrower Loan Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows: 
 If an Event of Default shall occur after the date of the First Amendment, or if after such date Lender shall become aware of an Event of
