APPENDIX A

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

Appendix A to Letter Engagement Agreement (the Agreement), dated March 30, 2010 by and between ImmunoCellular Therapeutics, Ltd. (the Company) and Gilford Securities, Inc.
(Gilford).

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold Gilford and its affiliates, control persons, directors,
officers, employees and agents (each an Indemnified Person) harmless from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses, including those resulting from any threatened or pending investigation, action, proceeding
or dispute whether or not Gilford or any such other Indemnified Person is a party to such investigation, action, proceeding or dispute, arising out of Gilfords entering into or performing services under this Agreement, or arising out of any
matter referred to in this Agreement. This indemnity shall also include Gilfords and/or any such other Indemnified Persons reasonable attorneys and accountants fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred in such investigations,
actions, proceedings or disputes which fees, expenses and costs shall be periodically reimbursed to Gilford and/or to any such other Indemnified Person by the Company as they are incurred; provided, however, that the indemnity herein set forth shall
not apply to an Indemnified Person where a court of competent jurisdiction has made a final determination that such Indemnified Person acted in a grossly negligent manner or engaged in willful misconduct in the performance of the services hereunder
which gave rise to the loss, claim, damage, liability, cost or expense sought to be recovered hereunder (but pending any such final determination the indemnification and reimbursement provisions hereinabove set forth shall apply and the Company
shall perform its obligations hereunder to reimburse Gilford and/or each such other Indemnified Person periodically for its, his or their fees, expenses and costs as they are incurred). The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have
any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with any act or omission to act as a result of its engagement under this Agreement except for any such liability for losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by the Company that is found in a final determination by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Persons breach of this Agreement or gross negligence or willful
misconduct.

If any action, suit, proceeding or investigation is commenced, as to which Gilford proposes to demand
indemnification, it shall promptly notify Company in writing and Company shall have the right to assume the defense of such action. If Company assumes the defense, an Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain counsel of it own choice to
represent it; however, the fees, expenses and disbursements of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Person. It is also understood and agreed that if Company does not elect to assume such defense, Company shall not, in connection with any
one such action or separate substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one counsel for Gilford and all
other Indemnified Persons combined, which counsel shall be mutually agreed upon by Company and Gilford.

|IMMUNOCELLULAR THERAPEUTICS, LTD. |  |  | MARCH 30, 2010 | 



If for any reason, the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to Gilford or any such
other Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by Gilford or any such other Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the Company and its shareholders on the one hand and Gilford or any such other Indemnified Person on the other hand, but also the relative fault of the Company and Gilford or any
such other Indemnified Person, as well as any relevant equitable considerations; provided that in no event will the aggregate contribution by Gilford and any such other Indemnified Person hereunder exceed the amount of fees actually received by
Gilford pursuant to this Agreement. The reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Company hereinabove set forth shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have and these obligations and the other
provisions hereinabove set forth shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of any successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of the Company, Gilford and any other Indemnified Person.

The terms and conditions hereinabove set forth in this Appendix A shall survive the termination and expiration of this Agreement and
shall continue indefinitely thereafter.
