Issuer: Integrated Surgical Systems, Inc.
Class of Stock: Common Stock
Issue Date: June 9, 2004
Expiration Date: June 9, 2006
THIS WARRANT CERTIFICATE is being issued pursuant to that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the "Securities
Purchase Agreement") between Integrated Surgical Systems, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company") and Golden Gate Investors, Inc., a California
corporation ("Holder"). Terms not defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement or the 6 3/4 % Convertible
Debenture ("Debenture").
1.1 Warrants. The Company hereby grants to Holder the right to
purchase 1,500,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Shares" or
"Warrant Shares"). For avoidance of doubt, this Warrant may be exercised
concurrently with or subsequent to the issuance of a Conversion Notice under the
Debenture in accordance with the Securities Purchase Agreement. The date that
the Holder issues a Conversion Notice under the Debenture is hereafter referred
to as the "Conversion Date." Holder agrees that, beginning in the first full
calendar month after the Registration Statement is declared effective with the
SEC,
Beginning in the first full calendar month after the Registration Statement is
declared effective, Holder will exercise at least 4% of the Warrants per
calendar month, in conjunction with the issuance of Conversion Notices under the
Debenture, provided that the Common Shares are available, registered and freely
tradable. In the event Holder breaches this provision, Holder shall not be
entitled to collect interest on the Debenture for that month. In the event
Holder breaches this provision for two consecutive months, at the option of the
Company, this Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Securities
Purchase Agreement and the associated Debenture shall terminate, and the
outstanding principal of the Debenture, together with accrued but unpaid
interest thereon, shall mature one month after the end of such second
consecutive month.
Holder will exercise no more than 12% (such 12% maximum amount to be cumulative
from the Deadline), of the Warrants per calendar month. The 12% monthly maximum
amount shall not be applicable if the Current Market Price of the Common Stock
at anytime during the applicable month is higher than the Current Market Price
of the Common Stock on the Closing Date.

This Warrant shall expire and Holder shall no longer be able to purchase the
Warrant Shares on June 9, 2006.
ARTICLE 2
EXERCISE
2.1 Method of Exercise. Holder may exercise this Warrant Certificate
by delivering a duly executed warrant notice of exercise in substantially the
form attached hereto as Appendix A ("Warrant Notice of Exercise") to the
principal office of the Company.
2.2 Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. As promptly as
practicable after the receipt of the Warrant Notice of Exercise, but in any
event not more than three (3) Business Days after the Company's receipt of the
Warrant Notice of Exercise, the Company shall issue the Warrant Shares and cause
to be mailed for delivery by overnight courier, or if a Registration Statement
covering the Warrant Shares has been declared effective by the SEC cause to be
electronically transferred, to Holder a certificate representing the Warrant
Shares acquired and, if this Warrant has not been fully exercised and has not
expired, a new Warrant Certificate substantially in the form of this Warrant
representing the right to acquire the portion of the Warrant Shares not so
exercised shall be delivered to Holder.
2.3 Replacement of Warrants. On receipt of evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant Certificate and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, on
delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to
the Company or, in the case of mutilation, or surrender and cancellation of this
Warrant Certificate, the Company at its expense shall execute and deliver, in
lieu of this Warrant Certificate, a new warrant certificate of like tenor.
2.4 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of this Warrant shall be $1.00
per Share.
2.5 Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Warrant Certificate, if the resale of the Warrant Shares by
the Holder is not then registered pursuant to an effective Registration
Statement, upon the expiration of one year from April 2, 2004 (the "Issue
Date"), this Warrant may be exercised by presentation and surrender of this
Warrant to the Company at its principal executive offices with a written notice
of Holder's intention to effect a cashless exercise, including a calculation of
the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon such exercise in
accordance with the terms hereof ( a "Cashless Exercise"). In the event of a
Cashless Exercise, in lieu of paying the Exercise Price in cash, Holder shall
surrender this Warrant for that number of Warrant Shares determined by
multiplying the number of Warrant Shares to which it otherwise would be entitled
by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the difference between the then
current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and the Exercise Price, and
the denominator or which shall be the then Current Market Price per share of
Common Stock.
2
2.6 Mandatory Exercise. In accordance with the Securities Purchase
Agreement, at anytime Holder shall convert all or any part of the Debenture,
Holder shall simultaneously therewith exercise Warrants in a dollar amount equal
to ten times the dollar amount of the Debenture conversion.
ARTICLE 3
ADJUSTMENT TO THE WARRANT SHARES
The number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant
and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the
occurrence of certain events, as follows:
3.1 Reclassification. In case of any reclassification or change of
outstanding securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant then,
and in any such case, the Holder, upon the exercise hereof at any time after the
consummation of such reclassification or change, shall be entitled to receive in
lieu of each Warrant Share theretofore issuable upon exercise of this Warrant,
the kind and amount of shares of stock, other securities, money and/or property
received upon such reclassification or change by a holder of one Warrant Share.
The provisions of this Section 2.1 shall similarly apply to successive
reclassifications or changes.
3.2 Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock. If the Company at any
time while this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or
combine its Common Stock, the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased
in the case of a subdivision or increased in the case of a combination.
3.3 Stock Dividends. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is
outstanding shall pay a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock, or make any
other distribution of shares of Common Stock (except any distribution
specifically provided for in Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 above), then the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted, effective from and after the date of
determination of shareholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution,
to that price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately
prior to such date of determination by a fraction, (a) the numerator of which
shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
prior to such dividend or distribution, and (b) the denominator of which shall
be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such
dividend or distribution.
3.4 Non-Cash Dividends. If the Company at any time while this Warrant
is outstanding shall pay a dividend payable in securities other than Common
Stock or other non-cash property, or make any other distribution of such
securities or property (except any distribution specifically provided for in
Section 2.1 and Section 2.2 above), then this Warrant shall represent the right
to acquire upon exercise of this Warrant such securities or property which the
Holder would have been entitled to receive upon such dividend or distribution
had such Warrant been exercised in full immediately prior thereto, without the
payment by the Holder of any additional consideration for such securities or
property.
3.5 Effect of Reorganization and Asset Sales. If any (i)
reorganization or reclassification of the Common Stock (ii) consolidation or
merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or (iii) sale or all or
substantially all of the Company's operating assets to another corporation
followed by a liquidation of the Company (any such transaction shall be referred
to herein as an "Event"), is effected in such a way that holders of Common Stock
are entitled to receive securities and/or assets as a result of their Common
Stock ownership, the Holder, upon exercise of this Warrant, shall be entitled to
receive such shares of stock securities or assets which the Holder would have
received had it fully exercised this Warrant on or prior the record date for
3
such Event. The Company shall not merge into or consolidate with another
corporation or sell all of its assets to another corporation for a consideration
consisting primarily of securities of such corporation, unless the successor or
acquiring corporation, as the case may be, shall expressly assume the due and
punctual observance and performance of each and every covenant and condition of
this Warrant Certificate to be performed or observed by the Company and all of
the obligations and liabilities hereunder, subject to such modification as shall
be necessary to provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as
practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2. The foregoing
provisions shall similarly apply to successive mergers, consolidations or sales
of assets.
3.6 Adjustment of Number of Warrant Shares. Upon each adjustment in
the Exercise Price, the number of Warrant Shares shall be adjusted, to the
nearest whole share, to the product obtained by multiplying the number of
Warrant Shares, purchasable immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately prior to such
adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price immediately
thereafter.
3.7 No Impairment. The Company shall not, by amendment of its articles
of incorporation or through a reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation,
merger, dissolution, issue, or sale of securities or any other voluntary action,
avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be
observed or performed under this Warrant Certificate by the Company, but shall
at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all of the provisions of this
Warrant Certificate and in taking all such action as may be reasonably necessary
or appropriate to protect Holder's rights hereunder against impairment. If the
Company takes any action affecting its Common Stock other than as described
above that adversely affects Holder's rights under this Warrant Certificate, the
Exercise Price shall be adjusted downward and the number of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be adjusted upward in such a manner
that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant is unchanged.
3.8 Fractional Warrant Shares. No fractional Warrant Shares shall be
issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, and the number of Warrant Shares to
be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.
3.9 Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise
Price, the Company, at its expense, shall compute such adjustment and furnish
Holder with a certificate of its Chief Financial Officer setting forth such
adjustment and the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company shall,
upon written request, furnish Holder a certificate setting forth the Exercise
Price in effect upon the date thereof and the series of adjustments leading to
such Exercise Price.
3.10 No Rights of Shareholders. This Warrant does not entitle Holder
to any voting rights or any other rights as a shareholder of the Company prior
to the exercise of Holder's right to purchase Warrant Shares as provided herein.

purchases some or all of the Warrant Shares, Holder shall have the Registration
Rights set forth in that certain Registration Rights Agreement executed
concurrently therewith.
