Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that you, as Representatives of the several Underwriters, propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with ZELTIQ Aesthetics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) by the several Underwriters named in Schedule 1 to the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriters”), of the Company’s shares of Common Stock, $0.001 per share par value, (the “Common Stock”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement.

In consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to purchase and make the Public Offering of Common Stock, and for other good and valuable consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of Goldman, Sachs & Co. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC on behalf of the Underwriters, the undersigned will not, during the period starting on the date hereof and ending 70 days after the date of the prospectus relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”) (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly,
 
 
 

 
 
any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock (including without limitation, Common Stock or such other securities which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and securities which may be issued upon exercise of a stock option or warrant), or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition or (2) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock or such other securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Common Stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, in each case other than (A) any Common Stock to be sold by the undersigned pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, (B) transfers of shares of Common Stock (i) as a bona fide gift or gifts, (ii) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned or (iii) by will or intestacy to the undersigned’s legal representative, heir or legatee, (C) distributions of shares of Common Stock to members, partners or stockholders of the undersigned, (D) transfers of shares of Common Stock to the undersigned’s affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by the undersigned, and (E) Common Stock acquired by the undersigned in open market transactions after the Public Offering; provided that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (B), (C) or (D), each donee, distributee or transferee shall execute and deliver to the Representatives a lock-up letter for the balance of the Lock-Up Period in the form of this paragraph; and provided, further, that in the case of any transfer or distribution pursuant to clause (B), (C), (D) or (E), no filing by any party (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other public announcement shall be required or shall be made voluntarily in connection with such transfer or distribution (other than a filing on a Form 5 made after the expiration of the Lock-Up Period).

The foregoing restriction shall not limit the right of the undersigned during the Lock-Up Period to make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock so long as there is no filing of any Registration Statement in respect of, and are no sales of, such shares of Common Stock and no other public announcement is made in relation to such demand or exercise during the Lock-Up Period.

No provision in this agreement shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit the exercise or exchange by the undersigned of any option or warrant to acquire shares of Common Stock, or any other security exchangeable or exercisable for, or convertible into, Common Stock, provided that the undersigned does not transfer the Common Stock acquired on such exercise or exchange during the Lock-Up Period, unless otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of this agreement, and provided that the security to be exercised or exchanged to acquire shares of Common Stock was not issued under a Company Stock Plan not described in the Prospectus and not in existence on the date of the Underwriting Agreement. In addition, no provision herein: (a) shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit the entry into or modification of a so-called “10b5-1 plan” at any time (other than the entry into or modification of such a plan in such a manner as to cause
 
 
 

 
 
the sale of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock within the Lock-Up Period); (b) shall prohibit the undersigned from selling shares under a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan in existence as of the date hereof during the Lock-Up Period; or (c) shall prohibit during the Lock-Up Period the withholding of shares by the Company to cover withholding taxes upon the vesting and issuance of shares pursuant to restricted stock units held by the undersigned as of the date hereof.

In the event that any shares of Common Stock are released from the lockup restrictions hereof, the same percentage of shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by the undersigned as were held by those of the person whose shares were released shall be immediately and fully released from any remaining lockup restrictions concurrently therewith; provided, however, that (a) Goldman, Sachs & Co. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC will not be obligated to release the undersigned from such lockup (i) unless and until Goldman, Sachs & Co. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC have first released more than 25,000 shares of Common Stock from such person’s lockup agreement or (ii) if, with respect to any lock up release effected in order to permit a person otherwise subject to lockup restrictions hereunder to participate in an underwritten public offering, the undersigned has been given the opportunity to participate in such underwritten public offering on a pro rata basis and the undersigned declined to so participate, and (b) in the event that any percentage of such shares released from the lockup restrictions are subject to any restrictions, the same restrictions shall be applicable to the release of the same percentage of the Company’s shares held by the undersigned. In the event that the undersigned is released from any of its obligations under this agreement or, by virtue of this agreement, becomes entitled to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock (or any securities convertible into shares of Common Stock) prior to the date that is 70 days after the date of the Prospectus, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the undersigned within three (3) business days; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not give rise to any claim or liability against Goldman, Sachs & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC or the Underwriters.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, the undersigned shall be permitted to make transfers, sales, tenders or other dispositions of Common Stock, or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, pursuant to a tender offer for securities of the Company or any other transaction, including, without limitation, a merger, consolidation or other business combination, involving a change of control of the Company (including, without limitation, entering into any lock-up, voting or similar agreement pursuant to which the undersigned may agree to transfer, sell, tender or otherwise dispose of Common Stock, or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, in connection with any such transaction, or vote any shares of Common Stock, or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, in favor of any such transaction), provided that all shares of Common Stock, or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, subject to this agreement that are not so transferred, sold, tendered or otherwise disposed of remain subject to this
 
 
 

 
 
agreement; and provided further that it shall be a condition of transfer, sale, tender or other disposition that if such tender offer or other transaction is not completed, any shares of Common Stock, or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, subject to this agreement shall remain subject to the restrictions herein.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company, and any duly appointed transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described herein, are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Letter Agreement.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Letter Agreement. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.  
 
The undersigned understands that, if (i) the Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, (ii) the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Common Stock to be sold thereunder, (iii) the Company makes a public announcement that it will not be proceeding with the Public Offering, or (iv) a closing for the Public Offering has not yet occurred as of December 31, 2013, the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Letter Agreement. The undersigned understands that the Underwriters are entering into the Underwriting Agreement and proceeding with the Public Offering in reliance upon this Letter Agreement.

This Letter Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.
