 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

The undersigned understands that CONCEPTUS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), intends to place its new 5.00%
Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Securities”) through a private exchange for the Company’s outstanding 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Old Notes”). The Company reserves the right to
increase or decrease the aggregate principal amount of Old Notes and Securities to be exchanged pursuant to such placement. This private exchange placement is made pursuant to the Preliminary Private Placement Circular, dated December 14, 2011,
the Pricing Circular, dated December 20, 2011 and the Final Private Placement Circular, dated December 20, 2011 (collectively, the “Private Placement Documents”), all as more particularly described and set forth in the
Private Placement Documents. The undersigned further understands that the private exchange placement is being made without registration of the Securities under the Securities Act, or any securities law of any state of the United States or of any
other jurisdiction, and is being made only to holders of the Old Notes who are both “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act) and “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule
144A under the Securities Act) in reliance on a private placement exemption from registration under the Securities Act. 







 1. Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the provisions of the Private
Placement Documents, the undersigned hereby irrevocably subscribes for the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth on the signature page hereto in exchange for the aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes set forth on the signature

duly authorized officer of the Company and delivered to the undersigned at the Closing referred to in Section 3 hereof. Subscriptions need not be accepted in the order received, and the Securities may be allocated among subscribers in a
manner determined by the Company in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall have no obligation to issue any of the Securities to any person who is a resident of a jurisdiction
in which the issuance of Securities to such person would constitute a violation of the securities, “blue sky” or other similar laws of such jurisdiction (collectively referred to as the “State Securities Laws”).

 The undersigned acknowledges the Company intends to pay Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “Placement
Agent”) a fee in respect of the exchange of Old Notes for the Securities pursuant to the private exchange placement.

any and all other rights with respect to such accepted Old Notes, and releases and discharges the Company from any and all claims the undersigned may now have, or may have in the future, arising out of, or related to, the Old Notes, including,
without limitation, any claims arising from any existing or past defaults, or any claims that the undersigned is entitled to receive additional interest with respect to the Old Notes (other than the right to receive any accrued and unpaid interest
up to, but excluding, the Closing Date). 
 The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), will act as securities

aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes accepted by the Company (the “DWAC Withdrawal”) and (ii) submit a deposit instruction through DTC’s DWAC program to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, acting as trustee of
the Securities (the “Securities Trustee”) for the aggregate principal amount of the Securities accepted by the Company (the “DWAC Deposit”), or comply with such other settlement procedures mutually agreed in writing

Notes Trustee or Securities Trustee is unable to locate the DWAC Withdrawal or DWAC Deposit or the DWAC Withdrawal or DWAC Deposit does not conform with the Old Notes or the Securities, respectively, accepted by the Company, the Company will
promptly notify the undersigned. 
 All questions as to the form of all documents and the validity and acceptance of the Old
Notes and the Securities will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding.

 Under U.S. federal income tax law, a holder who exchanges Old Notes for Securities generally must provide such holder’s correct TIN on IRS Form W-9 below or otherwise establish a basis for exemption
from backup withholding. A TIN is generally an individual holder’s social security number or a holder’s employer identification number. If the correct TIN is not provided, the holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the IRS. In
addition, certain payments made to holders may be subject to U.S. backup withholding tax (currently set at 28% of the payment). If a holder is required to provide a TIN but does not have the TIN, the holder should consult its tax advisor regarding
how to obtain a TIN. Certain holders are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. Non-U.S. Holders (as defined in the Final Private Placement Circular) must establish their status as exempt recipients from backup
withholding and can do so by submitting a properly completed IRS Form W-8 (available from the Company), signed, under penalties of perjury, attesting to such holder’s exempt foreign status. U.S. backup withholding is not an additional tax.
Rather, the U.S. federal income tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information
is timely furnished to the IRS. Holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding how to complete the appropriate forms and to determine whether they are exempt from backup withholding or other withholding taxes.
