 EXHIBIT I 

Indemnification Provisions 

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless ROTH and its affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended) and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and controlling persons (ROTH and each such person being an “Indemnified Party”) from and against all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (or actions,
including shareholder actions, in respect thereof), joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under any applicable federal or state law, or otherwise, which are related to or result from the performance by ROTH of the
services contemplated by or the engagement of ROTH pursuant to this Agreement and will promptly reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the
investigation of, preparation for or defense arising from any threatened or pending claim, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party and whether or not such claim, action or proceeding is initiated or brought by the Company. The Company will
not be liable to any Indemnified Party under the foregoing indemnification and reimbursement provisions (i) for any settlement by an Indemnified Party effected without its prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld); or (ii) to
the extent that any loss, claim, damage or liability is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from Indemnified Party’s willful
misconduct or gross negligence. The Company also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to the Company or its security holders or creditors related to or arising out
of the engagement of ROTH pursuant to, or the performance by ROTH of the services contemplated by, this Agreement except to the extent that any loss, claim, damage or liability is found in a final,
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from ROTH’s willful misconduct or gross negligence. 

Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of any intention or threat to commence an action, suit or proceeding or notice of the
commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company pursuant hereto, promptly notify the Company in writing of the same. Any failure or delay by an Indemnified
Party to give the notice referred to in this paragraph shall not affect such Indemnified Party’s right to be indemnified hereunder, except to the extent that such failure or delay causes actual material harm to the Company, or materially
prejudices its ability to defend such action, suit or proceeding on behalf of such Indemnified Party. In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Party and such Indemnified Party notifies the Company of the commencement thereof, the
Company may elect to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, and an Indemnified Party may employ counsel to participate in the defense of any such action provided, that the employment of such
counsel shall be at the Indemnified Party’s own expense, unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Company, (ii) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of counsel to the
Indemnified Party) that there are legal defenses available to the Indemnification Party that are not available to the Company, or that there exists a conflict or potential conflict of interest (based upon advice of counsel to the Indemnified Party)
between the Indemnified Party and the Company that makes it impossible or inadvisable for counsel to the Indemnifying Party to conduct the defense of both the Company and the Indemnified Party (in 

  
 Appendix I-1 

 
which case the Company will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party), or (iii) the Company has not in fact employed counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the action, suit or proceeding, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of such counsel
will be at the expense of the Company; provided, further, that in no event shall the Company be required to pay fees and expenses for more than one firm of attorneys (and local counsel) representing Indemnified Parties. 

If the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is for any reason held unenforceable by an Indemnified Party, the Company agrees to
contribute to the losses, claims, damages and liabilities for which such indemnification is held unenforceable (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and ROTH on the other
hand, of the Private Placement as contemplated whether or not the Private Placement is consummated or, (ii) if (but only if) the allocation provided for in clause (i) is for any reason unenforceable, in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand and ROTH, on the other hand, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The Company agrees that for the
purposes of this paragraph the relative benefits to the Company and ROTH of the Private Placement as contemplated shall be deemed to be in the same proportion that the total value received or contemplated to be received by the Company in connection
with the Private Placement bear to the fees paid or to be paid to ROTH under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company expressly agrees that ROTH shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which fees
paid to ROTH hereunder (excluding reimbursable expenses), exceeds the amount of any damages which ROTH has otherwise been required to pay. 

The Company agrees that without ROTH’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, it will not settle, compromise or
consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnification could be sought under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement (whether or not ROTH or any other Indemnified
Party is an actual or potential party to such claim, action or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding.

 In the event that an Indemnified Party is requested or required to appear as a witness in any action brought by or on behalf of or
against the Company in which such Indemnified Party is not named as a defendant, the Company agrees to promptly reimburse ROTH on a monthly basis for all expenses incurred by it in connection with such Indemnified Party’s appearing and
preparing to appear as such a witness, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of its legal counsel. 
 If
multiple claims are brought with respect to at least one of which indemnification is permitted under applicable law and provided for under this Agreement, the Company agrees that any judgment or arbitration award shall be conclusively deemed to be
based on claims as to which indemnification is permitted and provided for, except to the extent the judgment or arbitration award expressly states that it, or any portion thereof, is based solely on a claim as to which indemnification is not
available.

 Exhibit 10.3 

AMENDMENT TO SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT 

This Amendment (the “Amendment”), dated as of August 15, 2019, is made to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of July 11, 2019, between Delcath Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) and the purchasers signatories thereto. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement. 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, through an Exempt Issuance, the Company
is entitled to raise up to an additional $10 million through the sale of shares of Preferred Stock and Warrants. As of the date hereof there is an insufficient number of shares of Preferred Stock authorized in order to raise up to the
additional $10 million. 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 5.5 of the Purchase Agreement, the Purchase Agreement may be
amended by the written consent of the Company and Purchasers representing at least 50.1% in interest of the Securities based on the initial Subscription Amounts. 

WHEREAS, the Company and the Required Purchasers desire to amend the definition of Exempt Issuance in the Purchase Agreement in order
to enable the Company the ability to raise up to $12,960,000 by providing the Company with the right to issue shares of the Company’s Series E-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E-1 Preferred Stock”), in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, in lieu of issuing shares of Preferred Stock. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Definition of Exempt Issuance. 

a. The parties hereby agree to amend clause (e) in the definition of Exempt Issuance to enable the Company to issue the
Series E-1 Preferred Stock in lieu of issuing shares of Preferred Stock. As such, clause (e) in the definition of Exempt Issuance is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows: 

“up to $12 million in shares of the Company’s Series E-1 Convertible
Preferred Stock, which shall be substantially in the same form and substance as the Preferred Stock (the “Series E-1 Preferred Stock”), and Warrants, on the same terms and
conditions and prices as set out hereunder, with investors executing definitive agreements for the purchase of such Securities and such transactions having closed on or before August 19, 2019;” 

b. The parties hereby agree to amend the definition of Exempt Issuance to enable the Company to issue Series E-1 Preferred Stock and Warrants in lieu of paying the Placement Agent’s fees in cash. As such, the following clause (g) is added to the definition of Exempt Issuance: 

“(g) up to $960,000 in shares of Series E-1 Preferred Stock and Warrants, on the same terms and
conditions and prices as set out hereunder, to the Placement Agent in lieu of payment of its cash fees in connection with the issuance pursuant to clause (e) above.” 

 The amendment to the Purchase Agreement set forth herein shall take effect upon receipt of this Amendment
and amendments to the Purchase Agreement in substantially similar form to this Amendment, which together represent Purchasers holding at least 50.1% in interest of the then outstanding Securities based on the initial Subscription Amounts. 

The Company shall, by 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) on the date hereof, issue a Current Report on Form 8-K,
reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and attaching this Agreement as an exhibit thereto. From and after the filing of the 8-K, the
Company represents to the Purchaser that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to any of the Purchaser by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their
respective officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, effective upon the filing of the 8-K, the Company acknowledges and agrees
that any and all confidentiality or similar obligations under any agreement, whether written or oral, between the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates on the one hand, and
the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates on the other hand, shall terminate. 
 Except as expressly set forth above, all of the terms and conditions of the
Purchase Agreement shall continue in full force and effect after the execution of this agreement and shall not be in any way changed, modified or superseded by the terms set forth herein. 

This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts and by facsimile or “.pdf” signature or otherwise, and each of such counterparts shall be
deemed an original and all of such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
