c/o Cowen Healthcare Royalty GP, LLC

177 Broad Street

Stamford, CT 06901

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     Artes Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), agrees with Cowen
Healthcare Royalty Partners, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“you” or
“CHRP”), as follows:

ARTICLE I

AUTHORIZATION OF NOTES AND FIRST WARRANT

     Section 1.01 Amount.

     The Company has authorized the issue and sale of (i) a $6,500,000 aggregate principal amount
10% Senior Secured Note, due on the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date (the
“Note,” such term to include any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to
Article XIII of this Agreement) substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1.01(i), and (ii) a
Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “First Warrant”) substantially in the form set out in
Exhibit 1.01(ii), each with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be approved by you and the
Company.

     Section 1.02 Maturity Date.

     The initial maturity date of the Note shall be the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing
Date.

 

 

     Section 1.03 Interest.

     The Note shall, subject to the addition of any default interest, bear interest at a per annum
rate of 10%. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year,
comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months. Interest shall be payable, in cash, monthly in
arrears on the last day of each calendar month. In no event shall the interest charged in respect
of the Note exceed the highest maximum amount chargeable as interest under applicable law,
provided that if applicable law limits the amount chargeable as interest hereunder and
applicable law subsequently permits a rate of interest in respect of the Note which is higher than
the stated rate chargeable under the terms of the Note, the Note shall bear interest at such higher
rate until the aggregate interest charged in respect of the Note equals the amount which would have
been charged if the rate chargeable in respect of the Note had not been so previously limited and
thereafter the rate chargeable in respect of the Note shall reduce from such higher rate to the
stated rate of interest hereunder.

ARTICLE II

SALE AND PURCHASE OF NOTE

     Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company will issue and sell to you
and you will purchase from the Company, at the Closing provided for in Article III, the Note in the
aggregate principal amount specified in Section 1.01, together with the First Warrant, at the
purchase price of 100% of the principal amount of the Note.

ARTICLE III

CLOSING

     The sale and purchase of the Note and the First Warrant to be purchased by you shall occur at
the offices of McDermott Will & Emery LLP, Chicago, Illinois at 9:00 a.m., Chicago time, at a
closing (the “Closing”) as soon as practicable after the satisfaction or waiver by you and
the Company of the closing conditions set forth in Article IV, or as otherwise may be agreed upon
by you and the Company. At the Closing, the Company will deliver to you the Note and the First
Warrant, each dated the date of the Closing and registered in your name (or in the name of your
nominee) against delivery by you to the Company or its order of immediately available funds in the
amount of the purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds for the
account of the Company to Comerica Bank, Routing # ***, Account # ***, Beneficiary
Name: ARTES MEDICAL INC. If at the Closing the Company fails to tender the Note and the First
Warrant to you as provided above in this Article III, or any of the conditions specified in Article
IV shall not have been fulfilled to your satisfaction, you shall, at your election, be relieved of
all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights you may have by
reason of such failure or such nonfulfillment.

registration of transfers of the Note and the First Warrant. The name and address of the holders
the Note and the First Warrant, each transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee
of the Note and the First Warrant shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment
for registration of transfer, the Person(s) in whose name(s) the Note and the First Warrant shall
be registered, respectively, shall be deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all

-13-

 

purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the
contrary. The Company shall give to holder(s) of the Note and/or the First Warrant (if the Note or
the First Warrant shall have been sold or assigned in part), promptly upon request therefor, a
complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all other registered holders thereof, if
any.

     Section 13.02 Transfer and Exchange of Note and/or Warrant.

     Upon surrender of the Note or the First Warrant, as the case may be, at the principal
executive office of the Company for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a
surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such Note or First Warrant or his attorney duly
authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such Note or
First Warrant or part thereof), the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense
(except as provided below), one or more new Notes or First Warrants (as requested by the holder
thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal
amount of the surrendered Note, or exercisable into the number of shares previously unexercised
under the First Warrant, as the case may be. Each such new Note or First Warrant shall be payable
to or exercisable by such Person as such holder may request and shall be substantially in the form
of Note or First Warrant established for such series, as the case may be. Each such new Note shall
be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered

provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire
holding of the Note or First Warrant, one Note or First Warrant may be in a denomination (or
notional value) of less than $1,000,000. Any transferee, by its acceptance of a Note or First
Warrant registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the
representation set forth in Article VI. If the Note or the First Warrant initially issued
hereunder is transferred in part, rather than in whole, each reference herein or in the Note, to

reference shall be deemed to be a reference to the “holders” thereof or a similar reference, as
appropriate.

     Section 13.03 Replacement of Note and First Warrant.

     Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of the Note or First Warrant (which evidence shall be

     (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it
(provided that if the holder of the Note or First Warrant is you or your nominee, your own
unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or

     (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof,

-14-

 

the Company at its own expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note or First
Warrant of, as applicable, the same series or tranche, dated and bearing interest from the date to
which interest shall have been paid on, or exercisable for the number of shares of Common Stock,
such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or First Warrant, as applicable, or dated the date
of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note or First Warrant if no interest shall have been
paid thereon or shares exercised therefore, as applicable.

after any such request, to the Company at its principal executive office or at the place of payment
most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.01. Prior to any sale or other
disposition of any Note held by you or your nominee you will, at your election, either endorse
