Dear Xx. Xxxxx:
This letter agreement (this "Letter Agreement") reflects certain
understandings by and between Crdentia Corp. (the "Company") and MedCap Partners
L.P. ("MedCap") in connection with MedCap's exercise of warrants to purchase
108,334 shares of the Company's Series C Preferred Stock (the "Financing").
1. Attorney Fees. The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that it will pay
reasonable attorney's fees and expenses incurred by MedCap in connection with
the Financing, including any such reasonable fees in connection with MedCap's
filing of a Schedule 13D related to the Financing.
2. Registration Rights.
(a). The Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that it will, within
thirty (30) days of the closing of the Financing (the "Closing") file a
registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC")
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the resale of all MedCap
Shares (as defined below), and use its reasonable efforts to have such
registration statement declared effective by the SEC within ninety (90) days of
the Closing. For purposes of this Letter Agreement, "MedCap Shares" means (i)
all shares of outstanding Common Stock of the Company held by MedCap immediately
following the Closing (including the shares of Common Stock issued to MedCap
pursuant to Section 3 of this Letter Agreement and the shares of Common Stock
issued to MedCap in connection with the conversion of the Company's outstanding
Series B Preferred Stock), and (ii) the Common Stock of the Company issued or
issuable to MedCap pursuant to conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock of the
Company held by MedCap immediately following the Closing and (iii) the
Registrable Warrant Shares (as defined below). For purposes of this Letter
Agreement, "Registrable Warrant Shares" shall mean shares of Common Stock of the
Company issuable to MedCap pursuant to the conversion of Series B-1 or Series C
Preferred Stock of the Company that may be acquired by MedCap upon the exercise
of any outstanding warrant for shares of the Company's Series B-1 or Series C
Preferred Stock held by MedCap immediately following the Closing; provided that,
such shares of Common Stock are eligible to be registered for resale pursuant to
the SEC registration statement form (e.g., Form S-2 or Form S-3) on which the
Company decides to register
Exhibit 4.16
the MedCap Shares listed in items (i) and (ii) of the previous sentence at the
time that the MedCap Shares listed in items (i) and (ii) are registered for
resale.
(b). The Company and MedCap agree that their respective obligations with
respect to the registration to be effected pursuant to Section 2(a) of this
Letter Agreement shall be identical, to the extent applicable, to those set
forth in Sections 1.4, 1.5, 1.9, 1.12 and 1.13 (including any applicable defined
terms that may be elsewhere defined) of that certain Amended and Restated
Registration Rights Agreement dated August 31, 2004 by and between the Company,
MedCap and the other investors listed on Schedule A thereto (the "Registration
Rights Agreement"). Such sections of the Registration Rights Agreement are
hereby incorporated herein by reference, to the extent applicable; provided
that, the term "Holder" or "Holders" as used in such incorporated provisions
shall mean MedCap. All expenses (other than underwriting discounts and
commissions, stock transfer taxes and fees of counsel to MedCap in excess of
$15,000) incurred in connection with the registration set forth in this Section
2, including (without limitation) all federal or state registration, filing and
qualification fees, printers' and accounting fees and fees and disbursements of
counsel for the Company, shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall pay up
to an aggregate of $15,000 of MedCap's legal fees in connection with the
registration. If MedCap at any time intends to distribute all or a part of the
MedCap Shares covered by the registration statement filed pursuant to this
Section 2 by means of an underwriting, it shall so advise the Company and the
Company and MedCap shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form
with the underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company and MedCap. The
Company agrees to file any amendments or supplements to the registration
statement in order to permit any underwritten offering.
(c). Pursuant to Section 2.8 of the Registration Rights Agreement, the
Company and MedCap hereby amend and restate Section 1.1(g) of the Registration
Rights Agreement in its entirety as set forth on Exhibit A hereto. The granting
to MedCap of the registration rights set forth in this Letter Agreement, shall
not reduce the number of times that any of the parties to the Registration
Rights Agreement shall have the right to require the Company to register any
securities pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise affect any
other rights that are granted pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.
3. Common Stock Issuance. In consideration for MedCap extending, through the
Closing, the maturity of certain indebtedness owed by the Company, the Company
agrees to issue to MedCap, 77,751 shares of Common Stock. Following the Closing,
the Company shall promptly instruct its transfer agent to issue to MedCap a
stock certificate representing such shares of Common Stock. The Company hereby
represents and warrants that the payment for such shares of Common Stock shall
be adequate consideration and such shares, when issued, will be fully paid and
non-assessable.
4. Audit Committee Financial Expert. The Company agrees that it shall, in
connection with the Closing, designate an audit committee financial expert (as
such term is defined in the rules of the SEC).
Exhibit 4.16
5. Miscellaneous
-------------
(a). This Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the
laws of the State of Delaware as applied to agreements among Delaware residents
entered into and to be performed entirely within Delaware.
(b). This Letter Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.

(d). Except as expressly amended, restated or consented to in this
Letter Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement shall continue in full force

of notes issued by the Company to MedCap with a principal outstanding amount of
$1,450,000 and accrued interest of $15,041.10.
(f). Notwithstanding any conversion of Series B-1 Preferred Stock into
shares of Common Stock by the holders of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock in
connection with the Financing, the warrant which MedCap holds that is
convertible into 6,000 shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock shall remain
outstanding and after the Closing will continue to be exercisable for shares of
Series B-1 Preferred Stock.
(g). The Company represents and warrants that, in connection with the
Closing, all of the outstanding shares of Series B and B-1 Preferred Stock of
the Company will be converted into shares of the Company's Common Stock in
accordance with the terms of the notice of meeting provided to the holders of
Series B and Series B-1 Preferred Stock.
