STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT
     THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT is dated May 31, 2006 (this “Agreement”), between the undersigned investor (“Investor”) and Endologix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), whereby the parties agree as follows:
     The Investor shall buy and the Company agrees to issue and sell the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, set forth on the Investor’s signature pages hereto next to the heading “Shares” (“Shares”) at a price of Three Dollars and Thirty Cents ($3.30) per share for a total subscription amount equal to the amount set forth on the Investor’s signature pages hereto next to the heading “Subscription Amount”. The Shares have been registered on a registration statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-133598 (the “Registration Statement”), which has been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and remains effective as of the date hereof.

     (b) The Investor has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to purchase the Shares in accordance with the terms hereof. The purchase by the Investor of the Shares hereunder has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Investor.
     (c) In making its investment decision in this offering, the Investor and its advisors, if any, have relied solely on the Company’s public filings as filed with the SEC.

     (c) Authorization; Enforcement; No Conflicts. The Company has the full corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and otherwise to carry out its obligations hereunder and thereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company and no further consent or action is required by the Company, its Board of Directors or its stockholders. This Agreement has been (or upon delivery will be) duly executed by the Company and is, or when delivered in accordance with the terms hereof, will constitute, the valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws in effect which affect creditors’ rights generally, or (ii) laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies.

     (d) Filings, Consents and Approvals. The Company is not required to obtain any consent, approval, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, or qualification of, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority or other Person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Agreement, other than (i) the filings of a Form 8-K disclosing the transaction contemplated hereby, (ii) the filing with the SEC of the Prospectus Supplement, (iii) the application(s) to The Nasdaq National Market (the “Principal Market”) for the listing of the Shares for trading thereon in the time and manner required thereby, and (iv) applicable Blue Sky filings and filings required by foreign jurisdictions (collectively, the “Required Approvals”). “Person” means an individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind.
