RECITALS

A. The NuPathe Inc. 2010 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) provides for the
grant of options to purchase shares of common stock of the Company. The Board of Directors of the
Company (the “Board”) has decided to make a stock option grant as an inducement for the Grantee to
promote the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. A copy of the prospectus has been
delivered to the Grantee and the Grantee acknowledges receipt of such prospectus.

B. The Board is authorized to appoint a committee to administer the Plan. If a committee is
appointed, all references in this Agreement to the “Board” shall be deemed to refer to the
committee.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as
follows:

1. Grant of Option.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, the Company hereby
grants to the Grantee an incentive stock option (the “Option”) to purchase                      shares of common
stock of the Company (“Shares”) at an exercise price of $                     per Share. The Option shall become
exercisable according to Paragraph 2 below.

(b) The Option is designated as an incentive stock option, as described in Paragraph 5 below.
However, if and to the extent the Option exceeds the limits for an incentive stock option, as
described in Paragraph 5, the Option shall be a nonqualified stock option.

2. Vesting and Exercisability of Option. The Option shall become vested and exercisable on
the following dates, if the Grantee is employed by, or providing service to, the Employer (as
defined in the Plan) on the applicable vesting date (each, a “Vesting Date”):

[Insert
Vesting and Exercisability Schedule]

The vesting and exercisability of the Option is cumulative, but shall not exceed 100% of the Shares
subject to the Option. If the foregoing schedule would produce fractional Shares, the number of
Shares for which the Option becomes vested and exercisable shall be rounded down to the nearest
whole Share.

 

 

 

3. Term of Option.

(a) The Option shall have a term of ten years from the Date of Grant and shall terminate at
the expiration of that period, unless it is terminated at an earlier date pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement or the Plan.

(b) The Option shall automatically terminate upon the happening of the first of the following
events:

(i) The expiration of the 90-day period after the Grantee ceases to be employed by, or provide
service to, the Employer, if the termination is for any reason other than Disability, death or
Cause (as defined in the Plan).

(ii) The expiration of the one-year period after the Grantee ceases to be employed by, or
provide service to, the Employer on account of the Grantee’s Disability.

(iii) The expiration of the one-year period after the Grantee ceases to be employed by, or
provide service to, the Employer, if the Grantee dies while employed by, or providing service to,
the Employer or within 90 days after the Grantee ceases to be so employed or provide services on
account of a termination described in subparagraph (i) above.

(iv) The date on which the Grantee ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the
Employer for Cause. In addition, notwithstanding the prior provisions of this Paragraph 3, if the
Grantee engages in conduct that constitutes Cause after the Grantee’s employment or service
terminates, the Option shall immediately terminate, and the Grantee shall automatically forfeit all
Shares underlying any exercised portion of the Option for which the Company has not yet delivered
the Share certificates, upon refund by the Company of the exercise price paid by the Grantee for
such Shares.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may the Option be exercised after the date that is
immediately before the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant. Any portion of the Option that is
not exercisable at the time the Grantee ceases to be employed by, or provide service to, the
Employer shall immediately terminate.

4. Exercise Procedures.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 2 and 3 above, the Grantee may exercise part or
all of the exercisable Option by giving the Company written notice of intent to exercise in the
manner provided in this Agreement, specifying the number of Shares as to which the Option is to be
exercised and the method of payment. Payment of the exercise price shall be made in accordance
with procedures established by the Board from time to time based on type of payment being made but,
in any event, prior to issuance of the Shares. The Grantee shall pay the exercise price (i) in
cash, (ii) unless the Board determines otherwise, by delivering Shares owned by the Grantee and
having a Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) on the date of exercise at least equal to the
exercise price or by attestation (on a form prescribed by the Board) to ownership of Shares having
a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise at least equal to the exercise price, (iii) by payment
through a broker in accordance with procedures permitted by Regulation T of the Federal Reserve
Board, (iv) by surrender of all or any part of the vested

Shares for the Option is exercisable to the Company for an appreciation distribution payable in
shares of common stock with a Fair Market Value at the time of the Option surrender equal to the
dollar amount by which the then Fair Market Value of the shares of common stock subject to the
surrendered portion exceeds the aggregate exercise price payable for those shares, or (v) by such
other method as the Board may approve. The Board may impose from time to time such limitations as
it deems appropriate on the use of Shares of the Company to exercise the Option.

(b) The obligation of the Company to deliver Shares upon exercise of the Option shall be
subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations and such approvals by governmental agencies
as may be deemed appropriate by the Board, including such actions as Company counsel shall deem
necessary or appropriate to comply with relevant securities laws and regulations.

(c) All obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall be subject to the rights of the
Company as set forth in the Plan to withhold amounts required to be withheld for any taxes, if
applicable. Subject to Board approval, the Grantee may elect to satisfy any tax withholding
obligation of the Employer with respect to the Option by having Shares withheld up to an amount
that does not exceed the minimum applicable withholding tax rate for federal (including FICA),
state and local tax liabilities.

5. Designation as Incentive Stock Option.

(a) This Option is designated an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If the aggregate fair market value of the stock on
the date of the grant with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first
time by the Grantee during any calendar year, under the Plan or any other stock option plan of the
Company or a parent or subsidiary, exceeds $100,000, then the Option, as to the excess, shall be
treated as a nonqualified stock option that does not meet the requirements of Section 422 of the
Code. If and to the extent that the Option fails to qualify as an incentive stock option under the
Code, the Option shall remain outstanding according to its terms as a nonqualified stock option.

(b) The Grantee understands that favorable incentive stock option tax treatment is available
only if the Option is exercised while the Grantee is an employee of the Company or a parent or
subsidiary of the Company or within a period of time specified in the Code after the Grantee ceases
to be an employee. The Grantee understands that the Grantee is responsible for the income tax
consequences of the Option, and, among other tax consequences, the Grantee understands that he or
she may be subject to the alternative minimum tax under the Code in the year in which the Option is
exercised. The Grantee will consult with his or her tax adviser regarding the tax consequences of
the Option.

(c) The Grantee agrees that the Grantee shall immediately notify the Company in writing if the
Grantee sells or otherwise disposes of any Shares acquired upon the exercise of the Option and such
sale or other disposition occurs on or before the later of (i) two years after the Date of Grant or
(ii) one year after the exercise of the Option. The Grantee also agrees to provide the Company
with any information requested by the Company with respect to such sale or other disposition.

6. Change of Control. The provisions of the Plan applicable to a Change of Control shall
apply to the Option, and, in the event of a Change of Control, the Board may take such actions as
it deems appropriate pursuant to the Plan.

7. Restrictions on Exercise. Only the Grantee may exercise the Option during the Grantee’s
lifetime. After the Grantee’s death, the Option shall be exercisable (subject to the limitations
specified in the Plan) solely by the legal representatives of the Grantee, or by the person who
acquires the right to exercise the Option by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, to
the extent that the Option is exercisable pursuant to this Agreement.

8. Grant Subject to Plan Provisions. This grant is made pursuant to the Plan, the terms of
which are incorporated herein by reference, and in all respects shall be interpreted in accordance
with the Plan. The grant and exercise of the Option are subject to interpretations, regulations
and determinations concerning the Plan established from time to time by the Board in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan, including, but not limited to, provisions pertaining to (a) rights
and obligations with respect to withholding taxes, (b) the registration, qualification or listing
of the Shares, (c) changes in capitalization of the Company and (d) other requirements of
applicable law. The Board shall have the authority to interpret and construe the Option pursuant
to the terms of the Plan, and its decisions shall be conclusive as to any questions arising
hereunder.

9. No Employment or Other Rights. The grant of the Option shall not confer upon the
Grantee any right to be retained by or in the employ or service of the Employer and shall not
interfere in any way with the right of the Employer to terminate the Grantee’s employment or
service at any time. The right of the Employer to terminate the Grantee’s employment or service at
any time for any reason is specifically reserved.

10. No Stockholder Rights. Neither the Grantee, nor any person entitled to exercise the
Grantee’s rights in the event of the Grantee’s death, shall have any of the rights and privileges
of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to the Option, until certificates for Shares
have been issued upon the exercise of the Option.

11. Assignment and Transfers. The rights and interests of the Grantee under this Agreement
may not be sold, assigned, encumbered or otherwise transferred except, in the event of the death of
the Grantee, by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. In the event of any attempt by
the Grantee to alienate, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of the Option or any
right hereunder, except as provided for in this Agreement, or in the event of the levy or any
attachment, execution or similar process upon the rights or interests hereby conferred, the Company
may terminate the Option by notice to the Grantee, and the Option and all rights hereunder shall
thereupon become null and void. The rights and protections of the Company hereunder shall extend
to any successors or assigns of the Company and to the Company’s parents, subsidiaries, and
affiliates. This Agreement may be assigned by the Company without the Grantee’s consent.

12. Applicable Law. The validity, construction, interpretation and effect of this
instrument shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware,
without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.
