                       CONFIDENTIAL SEPARATION AGREEMENT
                               AND GENERAL RELEASE

               THIS CONFIDENTIAL SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE (this
"Agreement") is entered into as of November 6, 2002 (the "Effective Date"), by
and between NeoTherapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company") and
Michelle S. Glasky, Ph.D., an individual ("Executive").

                                    RECITALS

               WHEREAS, Executive is employed by the Company pursuant to that
certain executive employment agreement dated as of December 1, 2002 (the
"Employment Agreement");

               WHEREAS, Executive and the Company (collectively, the "Parties")
have agreed that Executive's employment as an officer and employee of the
Company shall terminate as of the Effective Date;

               WHEREAS, the Parties wish to specify the terms of the termination
and resolve any outstanding issues between them.

                                    AGREEMENT

               NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations and
agreements contained herein, and of other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be
bound hereby, the Company and Executive hereby agree to terminate their
employment relationship on the following basis:

        1. Termination of the Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement and
each Party's rights thereunder are hereby terminated, including, without
limitation, Executive's right to receive any "Base Salary" (as defined in the
Employment Agreement), bonus or other compensation, or any entitlement to
severance or other payments upon termination of employment under the Employment
Agreement.

        2. Separation. Executive and Company hereby agree that Executive's
employment as Vice President, Scientific Affairs and an employee of the Company
shall terminate as of the Effective Date. Executive understands and agrees that
she is giving up any right or claim to future employment with the Company and
any compensation or benefit of such employment, including any compensation
and/or benefits owed to the Executive pursuant to the Employment Agreement,
except for compensation and/or benefits provided for in this Agreement.
Executive acknowledges that she has received all compensation and benefits due
to her through the Effective Date.

        3. Compensation. In consideration of the termination of Executive's
employment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement:

<PAGE>
               (a) As of the Effective Date, Executive shall be paid the
following: (i) $ 43,269.30 in lieu of severance, (ii) $ 13,411.30 in full
payment of Executive's accrued and unpaid vacation pay, and (iii) $ 2812.50 as
full payment of all deferred salary owed to Executive.

               (b) All stock options previously granted to Executive shall
become fully vested as of the Effective Date, and Executive shall be entitled to
exercise such options in whole or in part from time to time during the one year
period commencing on the Effective Date. Executive agrees that, notwithstanding
any other provision in the Company's stock option plan or the stock option
agreements between the Company and Executive, nothing in this Agreement or the
terms of the consulting agreement set forth in Section 5 hereof shall entitle
Executive to exercise any stock options beyond the one year period following the
Effective Date.

               (c) As of the Effective Date, the Company hereby transfers to
Executive ownership of (i) the laptop computer and accessories (docking station,
monitor, keyboard, mouse, stand, speakers and printer) provided to her by the
Company in consideration of the payment by Executive to the Company of $150 and
(ii) the cellular telephone provided to her by the Company. After the Effective
Date, Executive agrees to assume and pay all costs of the laptop computer and
cellular telephone or their use.

        4. Options. Executive and the Company are parties to certain written
agreements pursuant to which Executive has been granted options to purchase
stock in the Company. Executive acknowledges that although such options might be
identified as incentive stock options, such options may not be qualified for
treatment as incentive stock options, either now or in the future. Executive is
advised to consult with her personal tax advisor to determine whether the
options are qualified for treatment as incentive stock options. Except as set
forth in Section 3(b) and this Section 4, Executive's rights under her existing
option agreements are not intended to be modified by this Agreement in any way.

        5. Future Consulting. Executive shall provide consulting services to the
Company as may be reasonably requested by the Company from time to time up to
and through December 31, 2003, such requests to be made on reasonable notice to
Executive and such services to be performed solely during ordinary business
hours. It is the express intent of the parties that Executive shall provide
consulting services to the Company as an independent contractor pursuant to this
Agreement. Executive will not be an employee of the Company after the Effective
Date, and Executive shall not hold herself out to be an employee of the Company,
and shall not have the authority to enter into or bind the Company to any
contract, promise, or obligation under any circumstances. The Company is
interested only in the results to be achieved by Executive under this Agreement,
and the manner and method of performing all services of Executive under this
Agreement, and achieving the desired results, shall be under the exclusive
control of Executive. The Company shall have no right or authority to direct or
control Executive with respect to the performance of Executive's services under
this Agreement, except as otherwise provided by this Agreement.

               The Company shall compensate Executive for consulting services
actually rendered hereunder at the rate of $150 per hour and reimburse her for
other amounts actually expended by Executive in the course of performing her
duties as a consultant to the Company, if such amounts are approved in writing
by the Company beforehand and Executive tenders

                                       2
<PAGE>
receipts or other documentation reasonably substantiating the amounts as
required by the Company.

        6. Return of Company Property. Except as expressly provided for herein,
at the Company's request, the Executive will return to the Company all files,
records, credit cards, keys, equipment, and any other property of the Company or
documents maintained by her for the Company's use or benefit, on or before the
Effective Date.

        7. Confidentiality. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement and all
matters relating to or leading up to the negotiation and effectuation of this
Agreement are confidential and shall not be disclosed to any third party except
as follows: the Company may disclose the terms of this Agreement to the public
as required by law, including without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; the Company may
disclose the terms of this Agreement to Company employees with a business
purpose for receiving such information; the Parties may disclose the terms of
the Agreement to their respective legal, accounting and tax advisors to the
extent necessary for them to perform services; and the Parties may disclose the
terms of this Agreement to the Internal Revenue Service and the California
Franchise Tax Board as required by law, rule or regulation, or as otherwise
required by law or necessary to enforce the terms of this Agreement. If any
disclosure is made as permitted by this paragraph other than to governmental
authorities as required by law, then such persons or entities shall be cautioned
about the confidentiality obligations imposed by this Agreement.

        8. Non-Disclosure, Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation.

               (a) Executive agrees that she will not disclose at any time,
other than to an authorized employee, officer, director or agent of the Company,
any information relating to the Company's business, trade, practices, trade
secrets or know-how or proprietary information without the Company's prior
express written consent. Following the Effective Date, Executive shall be
permitted to continue in her usual occupation and shall not be prohibited from
competing with the Company. Executive agrees that until December 31, 2003,
Executive shall not directly or indirectly solicit, induce, recruit or encourage
any of the Company's employees to leave their employment or take away such
employees to leave their employment or take away such employees or attempts to
solicit, induce, recruit, encourage or take away employees of the Company.

               (b) Executive understands and agrees that future payments under
this Agreement may be terminated by the Company if she violates this provision
in addition to any other remedies available under applicable law. In the event
the Company terminates payments pursuant to this Section, Executive may
challenge such termination in accordance with Section 15 below. In the event of
any other breach or violation of this Agreement, the party asserting a breach or
violation of the Agreement may seek remedies otherwise available under
applicable law or another provision of this Agreement in accordance with Section
15 below.

        9. General Release by Executive.

<PAGE>
               (a) Release of Claims. Executive does hereby for herself and her
respective heirs, successors and assigns, release, acquit and forever discharge
the Company, its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates and any of their officers,
directors, managers, employees, representatives, related entities, successors
and assigns, and all persons acting by, through or in concert with them (the
"Company Releasees") of and from any and all claims, actions, charges,
complaints, causes of action, rights, demands, debts, damages, or accountings of
whatever nature, known or unknown which Executive may have against the Company
Releasees, or any of them, based on any actions or events which occurred prior
to the effective date of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, those
related to, or arising from, Executive's employment with the Company or the
termination thereof, including, without limitation, any claims under Title VII
of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act and the
California Fair Employment and Housing Act (collectively, the "Claims" or
individually, "Claim"); provided, however, that the release set forth in this
Section 10(a) shall not be effective with respect to any Company Releasee, other
than the Company, who commences any claim, action or proceeding against
Executive based on any actions or events which occurred prior to the effective
date of this Agreement.

               (b) Release of Unknown Claims. In addition, Executive expressly
waives all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of
California, which reads as follows:

               A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH A CREDITOR DOES
               NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF
               EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY
               AFFECTED HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

               (c) No Assignment of Claims. Executive represents and warrants to
the Company Releasees that there has been no assignment or other transfer of any
interest in any Claim which Executive may have against the Company Releasees, or
any of them, and Executive agrees to indemnify and hold the Company Releasees
harmless from any liability, claims, demands, damages, costs, expenses and
attorneys' fees incurred as a result of any person asserting any such assignment
or transfer of any rights or Claims if Executive has made such assignment or
transfer from such party.

               (d) No Suits or Actions. Executive represents and warrants to the
Company that there have been no claims, suits, actions, complaints, or charges
filed by her against the Company Releasees, or any of them. Executive agrees
that if she hereafter commences, joins in, or in any manner seeks relief through
any suit arising out of, based upon, or relating to any of the Claims released
hereunder, or in any manner asserts against the Company Releasees, or any of
them, any of the Claims released hereunder, then she will pay to the Company
Releasees against whom such claim(s) is asserted, in addition to any other
damages caused thereby, all attorneys' fees incurred by such Company Releasees
in defending or otherwise responding to said suit or Claim.

               (e) No Admission. Executive further understands and agrees that
neither the payment of money nor the execution of this Release shall constitute
or be construed as an admission of any liability whatsoever by the Company
Releasees.

        10. General Release by the Company.

               (a) Release of Claims. The Company does hereby for itself and its
respective successors and assigns, release, acquit and forever discharge
Executive and her heirs, estates, successors and assigns, and all persons acting
by, through or in concert with them (the "Executive Releasees") of and from any
and all claims, actions, charges, complaints, causes of action, rights, demands,
debts, damages, or accountings of whatever nature, known or unknown which the
Company may have against the Executive Releasees, or any of them, based on any
actions or events which occurred prior to the effective date of this Agreement,
including, but not limited to, those related to, or arising from, Executive's
employment with the Company or the termination thereof (collectively, the
"Claims" or individually, "Claim").

               (b) Release of Unknown Claims. In addition, the Company expressly
waives all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of
California, which reads as follows:

               A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH A CREDITOR DOES
               NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF
               EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY
               AFFECTED HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.

               (c) No Assignment of Claims. The Company represents and warrants
to the Executive Releasees that there has been no assignment or other transfer
of any interest in any Claim which the Company may have against the Executive
Releasees, or any of them, and the Company agrees to indemnify and hold the
Executive Releasees harmless from any liability, claims, demands, damages,
costs, expenses and attorneys' fees incurred as a result of any person asserting
any such assignment or transfer of any rights or Claims if the Company has made
such assignment or transfer from such party.

               (d) No Suits or Actions. The Company agrees that if it hereafter
commences, joins in, or in any manner seeks relief through any suit arising out
of, based upon, or relating to any of the Claims released hereunder, or in any
manner asserts against the Executive Releasees, or any of them, any of the
Claims released hereunder, then it will pay to the Executive Releasees against
whom such claim(s) is asserted, in addition to any other damages caused thereby,

otherwise responding to said suit or Claim.

               (e) No Admission. The Company further understands and agrees that

or be construed as an admission of any liability whatsoever by the Executive
Releasees.

        11. Nondisparagement. The Parties shall not make any disparaging or
derogatory comments, public or otherwise, concerning each other, and Executive
shall refrain from making any disparaging comments, public or otherwise,
concerning any employees, officers or directors of the Company.

        12. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns.

                                       5

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder
may be assigned to any party by the Company or Executive without the prior
written consent of the other party hereto.

        13. Entire Agreement/No Oral Modification. This Agreement contains all
of the terms, promises, representations, and understandings, oral or written,
made between the Company and Executive with respect to the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior representations, understandings, or agreements, oral or
written, between the Company and Executive, with respect to such matters, which
the Parties acknowledge have been merged into this Agreement. This Agreement may
not be modified other than with a writing executed by both parties and stating
an intent to modify this agreement.

        14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the
State of California, without regard for conflict of law principles.

        15. Arbitration; Waiver of Jury Trial. Except for claims for equitable
or injunctive relief which cannot be timely addressed through arbitration (which
claims may be brought in any state or federal court in Orange County,
California), the parties hereby agree to submit any claim or dispute arising out
of the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, claims regarding
confidentiality under Section 8 of this Agreement and/or any dispute arising out
of or relating to Executive's employment or consulting relationship with the
Company in any way, to private and confidential arbitration by a single neutral
arbitrator through JAMS. All arbitration proceedings shall be governed by the
then current JAMS rules governing employment disputes, and shall take place in
Orange County, California. The decision of the arbitrator shall be rendered in
writing and shall be final and binding on all parties to this Agreement.
Judgment thereon may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The Company
shall advance the arbitrator's fee and all costs of services provided by the
arbitrator and arbitration organization; however, all costs of the arbitration
proceeding or litigation to enforce this Agreement, including attorneys' fees
and witness expenses, may be awarded to the prevailing party in addition to such
other relief as the arbitrator may determine. Except for claims for equitable or
injunctive relief which cannot be timely addressed through arbitration (which
claims may be brought in any state or federal court in Orange County,
California), this arbitration procedure is intended to be the exclusive method
of resolving any claim relating to the obligations set forth in this Agreement.
Executive hereby waives any right to a jury trial on any dispute or claim
covered by this paragraph.

        16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall
constitute the same instrument.

                                 ENDOLOGIX, INC.

                            INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

         This INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT is made as of October 1, 2002, between
Endologix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and____________________
("Indemnitee"), an officer and/or member of the Board of Directors of the
Company.

         WHEREAS, the Company desires the benefits of having Indemnitee serve as
an officer and/or director secure in the knowledge that expenses, liability and
losses incurred by him/her in his/her good faith service to the Company will be
borne by the Company or its successors and assigns in accordance with applicable
law; and

         WHEREAS, the Company desires that Indemnitee resist and defend against
what Indemnitee may consider to be unjustified investigations, claims, actions,
suits and proceedings which have arisen or may arise in the future as a result
of Indemnitee's past or future service to the Company; and

         WHEREAS, the parties believe it appropriate to memorialize and reaffirm
the Company's indemnification obligations to Indemnitee and, in addition, set
forth the indemnification agreements contained herein.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein
contained, the parties agree as follows:

         1.      Indemnification. Indemnitee shall be indemnified and held
harmless by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by its Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Incorporation"),
Bylaws and applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended,
against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys' fees, judgments,
fines, and amounts paid or to be paid in any settlement approved in advance by
the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) (collectively,
"Indefinable Expenses") actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by
Indemnitee in connection with any present or future threatened, pending or
contemplated investigation, claim, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (collectively, "Indemnifiable
Litigation"): (i) to which Indemnitee is or was a party or is threatened to be
made a party by reason of any action or inaction in Indemnitee's capacity as a
director, officer, employee or agent of the Company; or (ii) with respect to
which Indemnitee is otherwise involved by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is
or was serving as a director, officer, employee, agent or advisor of the
Company, or of any subsidiary or division, or is or was serving at the request
of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or advisor of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.
Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) Indemnitee shall have no right to
indemnification for expenses and the payment of profits arising from the
purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 16(b) of
the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; and (ii) Indemnitee's
rights under this Agreement are not being limited by any terms or provisions of
the Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws that are or would be more
restrictive than as provided in this Agreement. To the extent that a change in
applicable law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater
indemnification than would currently be

<PAGE>

afforded under the Company's Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and/or
applicable law, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall
enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. This
Agreement and all indemnification obligations of the Company shall apply fully
to all claims, costs, expenses and liabilities connected with or arising at any
time against Indemnitee on account of his or her past, present or future
services or affiliation as a director, officer, employee or advisor of the
Company.

         2.      Interim Expenses. The Company agrees to pay Indemnifiable
Expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Indemnifiable Litigation
in advance of the final disposition thereof, provided that the Company has
received an undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee, substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit A, to repay the amount so advanced to the extent that
it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Company under this Agreement or otherwise. The advances to be made hereunder
shall be paid by the Company to Indemnitee within ten (10) days following
delivery of a written request therefor by Indemnitee to the Company. Any
advances and undertakings pursuant to this Section 2 shall not be construed as a
loan and be unsecured and interest free.

         3.      Trust Fund.

                 (a)     The Company may, but is not obligated to, establish a
trust (the "Trust") to fund certain of its obligations under this Agreement and
similar agreements with other directors and/or officers (collectively, including
Indemnitee, the "Beneficiaries"). Therefore, in such event, in addition to
Indemnitee's rights under this Indemnification Agreement and any applicable
insurance policy, Indemnitee shall also have the right to seek indemnification
payments from the trustee (the "Trustee") of any such trust that may be
established hereafter in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and of the
trust agreement.

                 (b)     All communications or demands made by and among the
Trustee and the Beneficiaries of any such Trust are to be made through the
individual designated as the Beneficiaries' Representative. As of the date of
this Agreement, a Trust has not been established, nor has a Beneficiaries'
Representative been designated. The Beneficiaries' Representative shall be
designated and may be changed from time to time and at any time upon agreement
of two-thirds of the Beneficiaries at such time.

         4.      Procedure for Making Demand. Indemnitee shall give the Company
notice in writing of any claim made against Indemnitee for which indemnification
will or could be sought under this Agreement. Notice to the Company shall be
directed to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company at the address set forth
in this Agreement (or such other address as the Company shall designate in
writing to Indemnitee). Notice shall be deemed received three business days
after the date postmarked and sent by certified or registered mail, properly
addressed; otherwise notice shall be deemed received when such notice shall
actually be received by the Company. In addition, Indemnitee shall give the
Company such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as
shall be within Indemnitee's power. Any indemnification provided for in Section
1 shall be made no later than twenty (20) days after receipt of the written
request of Indemnitee.

         5.      Failure to Indemnify.

                 (a)     If a claim under this Agreement, or any statute, or
under any provision of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws
providing for indemnification, is not paid in full

                                       2

<PAGE>

by the Company, Insurance Company or, if the Trust Fund shall have been
established, by the Trustee, within twenty (20) days after a written request for
payment thereof has been received by the Company, Indemnitee may, but need not,
at any time thereafter bring an action against the Company to recover the unpaid
amount of the claim and, subject to Section 12, if successful in whole or in
part, Indemnitee shall also be entitled to be paid for the expense (including
but not limited to attorneys' fees and costs) of bringing such action.

                 (b)     It shall be a defense to such action (other than an
action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in connection with any
action, suit or proceeding in advance of its final disposition) that Indemnitee
has not met the standard of conduct which makes it permissible under applicable
law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed, but the
burden of proving such defense shall be on the Company and Indemnitee shall be
entitled to receive interim payments of interim expenses pursuant to Section 2
hereof unless and until such defense may be finally adjudicated by court order
or judgment from which no further right of appeal exists. It is the parties'
intention that if the Company contests Indemnitee's right to indemnification,
the question of Indemnitee's right to indemnification shall be for the court to
decide, and neither the failure of the Company (including its board of
directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a
determination that indemnification of Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances
because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct required by
applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Company (including its board
of directors, any committee or subgroup of the board of directors, independent
legal counsel, or its stockholders) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable
standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that Indemnitee has or has not
met the applicable standard of conduct.

         6.      Notice to Insurers. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice
of a claim pursuant to Section 4 thereof, the Company has director and/or
officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of
the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the
procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter
take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf
of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in
accordance with the terms of such policies. When and to the extent that such
insurers pay Indemnifiable Expenses, such Indemnifiable Expenses shall be
considered paid for purposes of this Agreement; and if Indemnitee shall be
compensated for the same Indemnifiable Expenses by such insurers and the
Company, the Indemnitee shall hold for the benefit of the Company and remit to
the Company the insurance proceeds in excess of that necessary to pay such and
all other Indemnifiable Expenses.

         7.      Retention of Counsel. In the event that the Company shall be
obligated to pay Indemnifiable Expenses as a result of any proceeding against
Indemnitee, the Company, subject to clauses (ii)(A) and (ii)(B) of the second
sentence of this Section 7, shall be entitled to assume the defense of such
proceeding, with counsel reasonably approved by Indemnitee, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, upon the delivery to Indemnitee of written notice
of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of such
counsel by Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the Company, the
Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any fees of
counsel subsequently incurred by that Indemnitee with respect to that same
proceeding, provided that (i) Indemnitee shall have the right to employ his or
her counsel in any such proceeding at Indemnitee's expense, and (ii) if (A)
Indemnitee shall have reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of
interest between the Company and Indemnitee in the conduct of any such defense,
or (B) the Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel to assume defense
of such proceeding, then the fees and expenses of Indemnitee's counsel shall be
at the expense of the Company.

         8.      Successors. This Agreement establishes contract rights which
shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the successors,
assigns, heirs and legal representatives of the parties hereto.

         9.      Mutual Acknowledgment. Both the Company and Indemnitee
acknowledge that in certain instances, Federal law or applicable public policy
may prohibit the Company from indemnifying its directors and officers under this
Agreement or otherwise. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the Company
may be required in the future to undertake to the Securities and Exchange
Commission to submit the question of indemnification to a court in certain
circumstances for a determination of the Company's right under public policy to
indemnify Indemnitee, and, in that event, the Indemnitee's rights and the
Company's obligations hereunder shall be subject to that determination.

         10.     Contract Rights Not Exclusive. The contract rights conferred by
this Agreement shall be in addition to, but not exclusive of, any other right
which Indemnitee may have or may hereafter acquire under any statute, provision
of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, agreement, vote of
shareholders or disinterested directors, policy of insurance, or otherwise, and
the rights of Indemnitee under each thereof shall be cumulative and not
exclusive of one another.

         11.     Indemnitee's Obligations. The Indemnitee shall promptly advise
the Company in writing of the institution of any investigation, claim, action,
suit or proceeding which is or may be subject to this Agreement and keep the
Company generally informed of, and consult with the Company with respect to, the
status of any such investigation, claim, action, suit or proceeding. Notices to
the Company shall be directed to Endologix, Inc., 13900 Alton Parkway, Suite
122, Irvine, California 92618, Attn: CEO (or other such address as the Company
shall designate in writing to Indemnitee). Notice shall be deemed received three
days after the date postmarked if sent by certified or registered mail, properly
addressed. In addition, Indemnitee shall give the Company such information and
cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be within Indemnitee's
power.

         12.     Attorneys' Fees. In the event that any action is instituted by
Indemnitee under this Agreement to enforce or interpret any of the terms hereof,
Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid all court costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Indemnitee with respect to such action,
unless as a part of such action, a court of competent jurisdiction determines
that each of the material assertions made by Indemnitee as a basis for such
action were not made in good faith or were frivolous. In the event of an action
instituted by or in the name of the Company under this Agreement, or to enforce
or interpret any other terms of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to
be paid all court costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by
Indemnitee in defense of such action (including with respect to Indemnitee's
counterclaims and cross-claims made in such action), unless as a part of such
action the court determines that each of Indemnitee's material defenses to such
action were made in bad faith or were frivolous. These rights are in addition to
Indemnitee's rights to recover Indemnifiable Expenses of any nature or
description, including but not limited to attorneys' fees and costs.

         13.     Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement, or any
clause hereof, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in
part, the remaining provisions and clauses of this Agreement shall remain fully
enforceable and binding on the parties.

shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof
(whether of not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

         15.     Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, performance and
enforcement of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of
Delaware.

                              UNDERTAKING AGREEMENT

         This UNDERTAKING AGREEMENT is made as of ____________, between
Endologix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and___________________,
a member of the board of directors and/or an officer of the Company
("Indemnitee").

         WHEREAS, Indemnitee may become involved in investigations, claims,
actions, suits or proceedings which have arisen or may arise in the future as a
result of Indemnitee's service to the Company; and

         WHEREAS, Indemnitee desires that the Company pay any and all expenses
(including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees and court costs) actually and
reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee's behalf in defending or
investigating any such suits or claims and that such payment be made in advance
of the final disposition of such investigations, claims, actions, suits or
proceedings to the extent that Indemnitee has not been previously reimbursed by
insurance; and

         WHEREAS, the Company is willing to make such payments but, in
accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation and/or Bylaws of the Company
and Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the
Company may make such payments only if it receives an undertaking to repay from
Indemnitee.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained
herein, the parties agree as follows:

         1.      In regard to any payments made by the Company to Indemnitee
pursuant to the terms of the Indemnification Agreement dated as of __________,
2002, between the Company and Indemnitee, Indemnitee hereby undertakes and
agrees to repay to the Company any and all amounts so paid promptly and in any
event within thirty (30) days after the disposition, including any appeals, of
any litigation or threatened litigation on account of which payments were made,
but only to the extent that Indemnitee is ultimately found not to be entitled to
be indemnified by the Company under the Certificate of Incorporation and/or
Bylaws of the Company and Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware, or other applicable law.

         2.      This Agreement shall not affect in any manner rights which
Indemnitee may have against the Company, any insurer or any other person to seek
indemnification for or reimbursement of any expenses referred to herein or any
judgment which may be rendered in any litigation or proceeding.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Undertaking Agreement
to be executed on the date first above written.
