accounts, and records. If Borrower now or at any time hereafter maintains any records
(including without limitation computer generated records end computer software programs for
the generation of such records) in the possession of a third party, Borrower, upon request of
Lender, shall notify such party to permit Lender free access to such records at all reasonable
times and to provide Lender with copies of any records it may request, all at Borrower’s
expense.

Compliance Certificates. Unless waived in writing by Lender, provide Lender at least
annually, with a certificate executed by Borrower’s chief financial officer, or other officer
or person acceptable to Lender, certifying that the representations and warranties set forth
in this Agreement are true and correct as of the date of the certificate and further
certifying that, as of the date of the certificate, no Event of Default exists under this
Agreement.

Environmental Compliance and Reports. Borrower shall comply in all respects with any and all
Environmental Laws; not cause or permit to exist, as a result of an intentional or
unintentional action or omission on Borrower’s part or on the part of any third party, on
property owned and/or occupied by Borrower, any environmental activity where damage may result
to the environment, unless such environmental activity is pursuant to and in compliance with
the conditions of a permit issued by the appropriate federal, state or local governmental
authorities; shall furnish to Lender promptly and in any event within thirty (30) days after
receipt thereof a copy of any notice, summons, lien, citation, directive, letter or other

activity whether or not there is damage to the environment and/or other natural resources.

Additional Assurances. Make, execute and deliver to Lender such promissory notes, mortgages,
deeds of trust, security agreements, assignments, financing statements, instruments, documents

LENDER’S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would materially affect
Lender’s interest in the Collateral or if Borrower fails to comply with any provision of this
Agreement or any Related Documents, including but not limited to Borrower’s failure to discharge
or pay when due any amounts Borrower is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any
Related Documents, Lender on Borrower’s behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take any action
that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to discharging or paying all taxes,
liens, security interests, encumbrances and other claims, at any time levied or placed on any
Collateral and paying all costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving any Collateral. All such
expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear interest at the rate
charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by Lender to the date of repayment by
Borrower. All such expenses will become a part of the Indebtedness and. at Lender’s option, will
(A) be payable on demand; (B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be
payable with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any applicable
insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be treated as a balloon payment
which will be due and payable at the Note’s maturity.

NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that while this Agreement is in
effect, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender:

Indebtedness and Liens. (1) Except for trade debt incurred in the normal course of business
and indebtedness to Lender contemplated by this Agreement, create, incur or assume
indebtedness for borrowed money, including capital leases. (2) sell, transfer, mortgage,
assign, pledge, lease, grant a security interest in, or encumber any of Borrower’s assets
(except as allowed as Permitted Liens, or (3) sell with recourse any of Borrower’s accounts,
except to Lender.

Continuity of Operations. (1) Engage in any business activities substantially different than
those in which Borrower is presently engaged, (2) cease operations, liquidate, merge,
transfer, acquire or consolidate with any other entity, change its name, dissolve or transfer
or sell Collateral out of the ordinary course of business, or (3) pay any dividends on
Borrower’s stock (other than dividends payable in its stock), provided, however that
notwithstanding the foregoing, but only so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing or would result from the payment of dividends, if Borrower is a “Subchapter S
Corporation” (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), Borrower may pay
cash dividends on its stock to its shareholders from time to time in amounts necessary to
enable the shareholders to pay income taxes and make estimated income tax payments to satisfy
their liabilities under federal and state law which arise solely from their status as
Shareholders of a Subchapter S Corporation because of their ownership of shares of Borrower’s
stock, or purchase or retire any of Borrower’s outstanding shares or alter or amend Borrower’s
capital structure.

Loans. Acquisitions and Guaranties. (1) Loan, invest in or advance money or assets to any
other person, enterprise or entity, (2) purchase, create or acquire any interest in any other
enterprise or entity, or (3) incur any obligation as surety or guarantor other than in the

be violated or breached by the performance of Borrower’s obligations under
this Agreement or in connection herewith.

	Loan No: 11307
	 	(Continued)
	 	Page 4

CESSATION OF ADVANCES. If Lender has made any commitment to make any Loan to Borrower, whether
under this Agreement or under any other agreement, Lender shall have no obligation to make Loan
Advances or to disburse Loan proceeds if; (A) Borrower or any Guarantor is in default under the
terms of this Agreement or any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower or
any Guarantor has with Lender; (B) Borrower or any Guarantor dies, becomes incompetent or becomes
insolvent, files a petition in bankruptcy or similar proceedings, or is adjudged a bankrupt; (C)
there occurs a material adverse change in Borrower’s financial condition, in the financial
condition of any Guarantor, or in the value of any Collateral securing any Loan; or (D) any
Guarantor seeks, claims or otherwise attempts to limit, modify or revoke such Guarantors guaranty
of the Loan or any other loan with Lender; or (E) Lender in good faith deems itself insecure, even
though no Event of Default shall have occurred.

RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a right of setoff in
all Borrower’s accounts with Lender (whether checking, savings, or some other account). This
includes all accounts Borrower holds jointly with someone else and all accounts Borrower may open
in the future. However, this does not include any IRA or Keogh accounts, or any trust accounts
for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Borrower authorizes Lender, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, to charge or setoff all sums owing on the Indebtedness against any and all such
accounts, and, at Lander’s option, to administratively freeze all such accounts to allow Lender to
protect Lander’s charge and setoff rights provided in this paragraph.

DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this Agreement;

Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under the Loan.

Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of the Related Documents or to
comply with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other
agreement between Lender and Borrower.

False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by
Borrower or on Borrower’s behalf under this Agreement or the Related Documents is false or
misleading in any material respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes
false or misleading at any time thereafter.

Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower’s existence as a going business, the
insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver for any part of Borrower’s property, any
assignment for the benefit of creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of
any proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.

Defective Collateralization. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents ceases to be in
full force and effect (including failure of any collateral document to create a valid and
perfected security interest or lien) at any time and for any reason.

Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or forfeiture proceedings,
whether by judicial proceeding, self-help, repossession or any other method, by any creditor
of Borrower or by any governmental agency against any collateral securing the Loan. This
includes a garnishment of any of Borrower’s accounts, including deposit accounts, with Lender.
However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a good faith dispute by Borrower
as to the validity or reasonableness of the claim which is the basis of the creditor or
forfeiture proceeding and if Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or
forfeiture proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the Creditor or
forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in its sole discretion, as being an
adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.

Events Affecting Guarantor. Any of the preceding events occurs with respect to any Guarantor
of any of the Indebtedness or any Guarantor dies or becomes incompetent, or revokes or
disputes the validity of, or liability under, any Guaranty of the indebtedness. In the event
of a death, Lender, at its option, may, but shall not be required to, permit the Guarantor’s
estate to assume unconditionally the obligations arising under the guaranty in a manner
satisfactory to Lender, and, in doing so, cure any Event of Default.

Change in Ownership. Any change in ownership of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the
common stock of Borrower.

Adverse Change. A material adverse change occurs in Borrower’s financial condition, or Lender
believes the prospect of payment or performance of the Loan is impaired.

Insecurity. Lender in good faith believes itself insecure.

Right to Cure. If any default, other than a default on Indebtedness, is curable and if
Borrower or Grantor, as the case may be, has not been given a notice of a similar default
within the preceding twelve (12) months, it may be cured if Borrower or Grantor, as the case
may be, after receiving written notice from Lender demanding cure of such default; (1) cure
the default within fifteen (15) days; or (2) if the cure requires more than fifteen (15) days,
immediately initiate steps which Lender deems in Lender’s sole discretion to be sufficient to
cure the default and thereafter continue and complete all reasonable and necessary steps
sufficient to produce compliance as soon as reasonably practical.

EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where otherwise
provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all Commitments and obligations of Lender
under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate
(including any obligation to make further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender’s
option, all Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any kind
to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described in the
“insolvency” subsection above such acceleration shall be automatic and not optional. In addition,
Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at
law, in equity, or otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender’s
rights and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently. Election
by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit of any other remedy, and an election to
make expenditures or to take action to perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall
not affect Lender’s right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of this Agreement.

Amendments. This Agreement, together with any Related Documents, constitutes the entire
understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set forth in this Agreement. No
alteration of or amendment to this Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and
signed by the party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.

Attorneys’ Fees; Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender’s costs and
expenses, including Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and Lender’s legal expenses, incurred
in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement. Lender may hire or pay someone else to
help enforce this Agreement, and Borrower shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal
expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay
or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection services. Borrower also
shall pay all court costs and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.

Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience purposes only
and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this Agreement.

Consent to Loan Participation. Borrower agrees and consents to Lender’s sale or transfer,
whether now or later, of one or more participation interests in the Loan to one or more
purchasers, whether related or unrelated to Lender. Lender may provide, without any
limitation whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers, or potential purchasers, any information
or knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating to the Loan,
and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy Borrower may have with respect to such
matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all notices of sale of participation interests,
as well as all notices of any repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower also
agrees that the purchasers of any such participation interests will be considered as the
absolute owners of such interests in the Loan and will have all the rights granted under the
participation agreement or agreements governing the sale of such participation interests.
Borrower further waives all rights of offset or counterclaim that it may have now or later
against Lender or against any purchaser of such a participation interest and unconditionally
agrees that either Lender or such purchaser may enforce Borrower’s obligation under the Loan
irrespective of the failure or insolvency of any holder of any interest in the Loan. Borrower
further agrees that the purchaser of any such participation interests may enforce its
interests irrespective of any personal claims or defenses that Borrower may have against
Lender.

Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by federal law applicable to Lender and, to
the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to
its conflicts of law provisions. This Agreement has been accepted by Lender in the State of
Minnesota.

No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this
Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission
on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any
other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or
constitute a waiver of Lender’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course
of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between Lender and any Grantor, shall constitute a
waiver of any of Lender’s rights or of any of Borrower’s or any Grantor’s obligations as to
any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the
granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to
subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be
granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be given in writing, and
shall be effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile (unless
otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or,
if mailed, when deposited in the United States mail, as first class, certified or registered
mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Agreement.
Any party may change its address for notices under this Agreement by giving formal written
notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the
party’s address. For notice purposes, Borrower agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of
Borrower’s current address. Unless otherwise provided or required by law, if there is more
than one Borrower, any notice given by Lender to any Borrower is deemed to be notice given to
all Borrowers.

Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to
be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any circumstance, that finding shall not make the
offending provision illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any other circumstance. If
feasible, the offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal, valid
and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be considered
deleted from this Agreement. Unless otherwise required by law, the illegality, invalidity, or
unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the legality, validity or
enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

Subsidiaries and Affiliates of Borrower. To the extent the context of any provisions of this
Agreement makes it appropriate, including without limitation any representation, warranty or
covenant, the word “Borrower” as used in this Agreement shall include all of Borrower’s
subsidiaries and affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing however, under no circumstances
shall this Agreement be construed to require Lender to make any Loan or other financial
accommodation to any of Borrower’s subsidiaries or affiliates.

Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements by or on behalf of Borrower contained in
this Agreement or any Related Documents shall bind Borrower’s successors and assigns and shall
inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns. Borrower shall not, however,
have the right to assign Borrower’s rights under this Agreement or any interest therein,
without the prior written consent of Lender.

Survival of Representations and Warranties. Borrower understands and agrees that in extending
Loan Advances, Lender is relying on all representations, warranties, and covenants made by
Borrower in this Agreement or in any certificate or other instrument delivered by Borrower to
Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents. Borrower further agrees that regardless
of any investigation made by Lender, all such representations, warranties and covenants will
survive the extension of Loan Advances and delivery to Lender of the Related Documents, shall
be continuing in nature, shall be deemed made and redated by Borrower at the time each Loan
Advance is made, and shall remain in full force and effect until such time as Borrower’s
Indebtedness shall be paid in full, or until this Agreement shall be terminated in the manner
provided above, whichever is the last to occur.

	 	Initial Rate: 6.750%
	 	Date of Note: March 24, 2005

PROMISE TO PAY. Uroplasty, Inc. (“Borrower”) promises to pay to Venture Bank (“Lender”), or
order, in lawful money of the United States of America, the principal amount of Five Hundred
Thousand & 00/l00 Dollars ($500,000.00) or so much as may be outstanding. together with interest
on the unpaid outstanding principal balance of each advance. Interest shall be calculated from
the date of each advance until repayment of each advance.

PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in one payment of all outstanding principal plus all
accrued unpaid interest on March 24, 2006. In addition, Borrower will pay regular monthly
payments of all accrued unpaid interest due as of each payment date, beginning April 24, 2006,
with all subsequent interest payments to be due on the same day of each month after that. Unless
otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to any accrued
unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any unpaid collection costs; and then to any late
charges. The annual interest rate for this Note Is computed on a 3651360 basis; that is, by
applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a year of 360 days, multiplied by the
outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual number of days the principal balance is
outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender’s address shown above or at such other place as
Lender may designate in writing.

VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from time to time
based on changes in an independent index which is the Prime rate of interest as published each
business day in the money rates section of The Wall Street Journal (the “lndex”). The Index is
not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable
during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after notice to Borrower.
Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower’s request. The interest rate
change will not occur more often than each day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans
based on other rates as well. The Index currently is 5.750% per annum. The Interest rate to be
applied to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be at a rate of 1.000 percentage point
over the Index, adjusted if necessary for any minimum and maximum rate limitations described
below, resulting in an initial rate of 6.750% per annum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
variable interest rate or rates provided for in this Note will be subject to the following
minimum end maximum rates. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note
be less than 6.000% per annum or more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.

PREPAYMENT Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges are earned
fully as of the date of the loan and will not be subject to refund upon early payment (whether
voluntary or as a result of default), except as otherwise required by law. Except for the
foregoing, Borrower may pay without penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it
is due. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of
Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments of accrued unpaid interest. Rather, early
payments will reduce the principal balance due. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments
marked “paid in full”, “without recourse”, or similar language. If Borrower sends such a
payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender’s rights under this Note, and
Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written
communications concerning disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that
indicates that the payment constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or that is tendered
with other conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed
or delivered to: Venture Bank, 5601 Green Valley Drive, Suite 120, Bloomington, MN 55437.

LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged 5.000% of the
unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled payment.

INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final maturity, Lender, at
its option, may, if permitted under applicable law, increase the variable interest rate on this
Note to 3.000 percentage points over the Index. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum
rate permitted by applicable law.

DEFAULT Each of the following shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”) under
this Note:

Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under this Note.

Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any of the related documents or to comply
with or to perform any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other
