to the terms and conditions herein (this “Agreement”), Precipio, Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”), hereby agrees to sell up to an aggregate of 2,748 registered of
the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), together with Common Stock purchase warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,962,857 shares of Common Stock (each a
“Warrant” and together with the Series C Preferred Stock, the “Units”), directly to various investors (each, an “Investor” and, collectively, the “Investors”) through Aegis Capital Corp., as lead
placement agent (the “Placement Agent”). The documents executed and delivered by the Company and the Investors in connection with the Offering (as defined below), shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction
Documents.” The purchase price to the Investors for each Unit is $1,000. The Placement Agent may retain other brokers or dealers to act as sub-agents or selected-dealers on its behalf in connection
with the Offering. 
 The Company hereby confirms its agreement with the Placement Agent as follows: 

Section 1. Agreement to Act as Placement Agent. 

(a) On the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of the Company herein contained, and subject to all the
terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Placement Agent shall be the exclusive lead Placement Agent in connection with the offering and sale by the Company of the Units pursuant to the Company’s “shelf” registration statement, and
an amendment or amendments thereto, on Form S-3 (File No. 333-201907), which registration statement was declared effective on February 13, 2015 (the
“Registration Statement”), with the terms of such offering (the “Offering”) to be subject to market conditions and negotiations between the Company, the Placement Agent and the prospective Investors. The Placement
Agent will act on a reasonable best efforts basis and the Company agrees and acknowledges that there is no guarantee of the successful placement of the Units, or any portion thereof, in the prospective Offering. Under no circumstances will the
Placement Agent or any of its “Affiliates” (as defined below) be obligated to underwrite or purchase any of the Units for its own account or otherwise provide any financing. The Placement Agent shall act solely as the Company’s agent
and not as principal. The Placement Agent shall have no authority to bind the Company with respect to any prospective offer to purchase Units and the Company shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Units and may reject any such offer,
in whole or in part. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, payment of the purchase price for, and delivery of, the Units shall be made at one or more closings (each a “Closing” and the date on which each Closing occurs, a
“Closing Date”). As compensation for services rendered, on each Closing Date, the Company shall pay to the Placement Agent the fees and expenses set forth below: 

(i) A cash fee equal to 7% of gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Units at the closing of the Offering
(the “Closing”). 

 (ii) The Company also agrees to pay the Placement Agent an accountable expense
allowance of 1% of gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Units at the Closing and $50,000 for the fees and expenses of its legal counsel. 

(b) The term of the Placement Agent’s exclusive engagement will be until the completion of the Offering (the
“Exclusive Term”); provided, however, that a party hereto may terminate the engagement with respect to itself at any time upon 10 days written notice to the other parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, the provisions concerning confidentiality, indemnification and contribution contained herein and the Company’s obligations contained in the indemnification provisions will survive any expiration or termination of this
Agreement, and the Company’s obligation to pay fees actually earned and payable and to reimburse expenses actually incurred and reimbursable pursuant to Section 1 hereof and which are permitted to be reimbursed under FINRA Rule
5110(f)(2)(D), will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the ability of the Placement Agent or its Affiliates to pursue, investigate, analyze, invest in, or engage in
investment banking, financial advisory or any other business relationship with Persons (as defined below) other than the Company. As used herein (i) “Persons” means an individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or
unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind and (ii) “Affiliate” means any Person that, directly or indirectly
through one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by or is under common control with a Person as such terms are used in and construed under Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 Section 2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Company. The Company hereby represents, warrants and covenants to
the Placement Agent as of the date hereof, and as of each Closing Date, as follows: 
 (a) Securities Law Filings. The
Company has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a “shelf” registration statement, and an amendment or amendments thereto, on Form S-3 (File No. 333-201907), which registration statement was declared effective on February 13, 2015, for the registration of the sale of certain securities of the Company, including the Public Securities, under the
Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act Regulations”). Such registration statement, including the exhibits thereto, as amended at the date of this Agreement, is hereinafter
called the “Registration Statement”. 
 After execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company will prepare
and file with the Commission a prospectus supplement to the base prospectus included in the Registration Statement (the “Base Prospectus”) in accordance with the provisions of Rule 430B (“Rule 430B”) and Rule 424(b) (“Rule
424(b)”) of the Securities Act Regulations; any information included in such prospectus supplement that was omitted from the Registration Statement at the time it became effective but that is deemed to be part of and included in the
Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430B is herein called the “Rule 430B Information”; the Base Prospectus, together with any prospectus supplement used in connection with the offering of the Units is hereinafter collectively called
the “Prospectus.” 
 Any reference in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus or the
Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference therein (the “Incorporated Documents”) pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 which were
filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), 

  
 2 

 
and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act Regulations”), on or before the date of this Agreement, or the issue date of the Base
Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference in this Agreement to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, or the Prospectus
shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any document under the Exchange Act after the date of this Agreement, or the issue date of the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, deemed to be incorporated therein by
reference. All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and any other information which is “contained, “included,” “described,” “referenced,” “set forth” or “stated” in
the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, or the Prospectus (and all other references of like import) shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and any other information which is or is deemed to be
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus, as the case may be. 
 The Company and the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement meet the requirements for, and comply with the conditions for the use of, Form S-3 under the Securities Act, including but not limited to Instruction I.B.1 of Form S-3. The aggregate market value of the outstanding voting and non-voting common equity (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations) of the Company held by
persons other than affiliates of the Company (pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act Regulations, those that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, control, or are controlled by, or are under common control with, the
Company) (the “Non-Affiliate Shares”), has been equal to or greater than $75 million (calculated by multiplying (x) the highest price at which the common equity of the Company closed on the
Exchange (as defined below) since the date of the filing of the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K times (y) the number of Non-Affiliate Shares)
since the date of the filing of the Company’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K. The Company is not a shell company (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act Regulations) and has not been a shell
company for at least 12 calendar months previously and if it has been a shell company at any time previously, has filed current Form 10 information (as defined in Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3) with the
Commission at least 12 calendar months previously reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company. 
 (b)
Assurances. The Registration Statement, as amended, (and any further documents to be filed with the Commission) contains all exhibits and schedules as required by the Securities Act. Each of the Registration Statement and any post-effective
amendment thereto, at the time it became effective, complied in all material respects with the Securities Act and the applicable Rules and Regulations and did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Base Prospectus and the Prospectus, each as of its respective date, comply or will comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the
applicable Rules and Regulations. Each of the Base Prospectus or the Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, did not and will not contain as of the date thereof any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The Incorporated Documents, when they were filed with the Commission, conformed in all material respects to the requirements of the
Exchange Act and the applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and none of such documents, when they were filed with the Commission, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to
make the statements therein (with respect to Incorporated Documents incorporated by reference in the Prospectus), in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading. No post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement
reflecting any facts or events arising after the date thereof which 

  
 3 

 
represent, individually or in the aggregate, a fundamental change in the information set forth therein is required to be filed with the Commission. Except for this Agreement, there are no
documents required to be filed with the Commission in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby that (x) have not been filed as required pursuant to the Securities Act or (y) will not be filed within the requisite time period.
Except for this Agreement, there are no contracts or other documents required to be described in the Base Prospectus or Prospectus, or to be filed as exhibits or schedules to the Registration Statement, which have not been described or filed as

Subsidiaries is duly qualified to conduct business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation or other entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted or property owned by it makes such qualification necessary, except

options or restricted stock units under the Company’s stock option plans, the issuance of shares of Common Stock to employees pursuant to the Company’s employee stock purchase plans and
pursuant to the conversion and/or exercise of Common Stock Equivalents outstanding as of the date of the most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act. Common Stock Equivalents means any securities of the Company or the Subsidiaries
which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for,

commitments, understandings or arrangements by which the Company or any Subsidiary is or may become bound to issue additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or capital stock of any Subsidiary. The issuance and sale of the Units
will not obligate the Company or any Subsidiary to issue shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or other securities to any Person (other than the Purchasers) and will not result in a right of any holder of Company securities to adjust the

recapitalizations, and the like) to the exercise or conversion price, have any exchange rights, or reset rights, other than the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase Common Stock issued pursuant to the Underwriting

have been issued in compliance with all federal and state securities laws, and none of such outstanding shares was issued in violation of any preemptive rights or similar rights to subscribe for or purchase securities. No further approval or
authorization of any stockholder, the Board of Directors or others is required for the issuance and sale of the Units. There are no stockholders agreements, voting agreements or other similar agreements with respect to the Company’s capital
stock to which the Company is a party or, to the knowledge of the Company, between or among any of the Company’s stockholders.

such employee has a substantial interest or is an officer, director, trustee, stockholder, member or partner, in each case in excess of $120,000 other than for: (i) payment of salary, consulting fees or director fees for services rendered,
(ii) reimbursement for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company and (iii) other employee benefits, including stock option agreements under any stock option plan of the Company. 

(v) Sarbanes-Oxley; Internal Accounting Controls. The Company and the Subsidiaries are in compliance with any and all
applicable requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 that are effective as of the date hereof, and any and all applicable rules and regulations promulgated by the Commission thereunder that are effective as of the date hereof and as of the
Closing Date. The Company and the Subsidiaries maintain a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific
authorizations, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain asset accountability, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with
management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. The Company and
the Subsidiaries have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the Company and the Subsidiaries and
designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s certifying officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures of the Company and the Subsidiaries as of the end of the period
covered by the Company’s most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act (such date, the “Evaluation Date”). The Company presented in its most recently filed periodic report under the Exchange Act the conclusions of
the certifying officers about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures based on their evaluations as of the Evaluation Date. Since the Evaluation Date, there have been no changes in the internal control over financial reporting
(as such term is defined in the Exchange Act) of the Company and its Subsidiaries that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal control over financial reporting of the Company and its Subsidiaries. 

(w) Certain Fees. Except as set forth in the Prospectus, no brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions are or will
be payable by the Company to any broker, financial advisor or consultant, finder, placement agent, investment banker, bank or other Person with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the transactions contemplated pursuant to
the Prospectus. The Investors shall have no obligation with respect to any fees or with respect to any claims made by or on behalf of other Persons for fees of a type contemplated in this Section that may be due in connection with the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the transactions contemplated pursuant to the Prospectus. 
 (x) Investment
Company. The Company is not, and is not an Affiliate of, and immediately after receipt of payment for the Securities, will not be or be an Affiliate of, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended. The Company shall conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become an “investment company” subject to registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

  
 10 

 (y) Registration Rights. Except as set forth in SEC Reports, no Person has
any right to cause the Company or any Subsidiary to effect the registration under the Securities Act of any securities of the Company or any Subsidiary. 

(z) Listing and Maintenance Requirements. The Common Stock is registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the
Exchange Act, and the Company has taken no action designed to, or which to its knowledge is likely to have the effect of, terminating the registration of the Common Stock under the Exchange Act nor has the Company received any notification that the
Commission is contemplating terminating such registration. Except as set forth in SEC Reports, the Company has not, in the 12 months preceding the date hereof, received notice from any Trading Market on which the Common Stock is or has been listed
or quoted to the effect that the Company is not in compliance with the listing or maintenance requirements of such Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock. The Company is, and has no reason to believe that it will not in the foreseeable
future continue to be, in compliance with all such listing and maintenance requirements. The Common Stock is currently eligible for electronic transfer through the Depository Trust Company or another established clearing corporation and the Company
is current in payment of the fees to the Depository Trust Company (or such other established clearing corporation) in connection with such electronic transfer. 

(aa) Application of Takeover Protections. The Company and the Board of Directors have taken all necessary action, if
any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition, business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the
Company’s certificate of incorporation (or similar charter documents) or the laws of its state of incorporation that is or could become applicable to the Investors as a result of the Investors and the Company fulfilling their obligations or
exercising their rights under this Agreement and the transactions contemplated pursuant to the Prospectus, including without limitation as a result of the Company’s issuance of the Securities and the Investors’ ownership of the Securities.

 (bb) Disclosure. Except with respect to the material terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated pursuant to the Prospectus, the Company confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided any of the Investors or their agents or counsel with any information that it believes
constitutes or might constitute material, non-public information which is not otherwise disclosed in the Preliminary Prospectus, any Company Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus. The Company understands
and confirms that the Investors will rely on the foregoing representation in effecting transactions in securities of the Company. All of the disclosure furnished by or on behalf of the Company to the Investors regarding the Company and, its
Subsidiaries, their respective businesses and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Disclosure Schedules to this Agreement, is true and correct and does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The press releases disseminated by the Company during the twelve months preceding the date of this Agreement taken
as a whole do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made and when
made, not misleading. 

  
 11 

 (cc) No Integrated Offering. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Affiliates, nor any Person acting on its or their behalf has, directly or indirectly, made any offers or sales of any security or solicited any offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would cause this offering of the Securities to be
integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of any applicable shareholder approval provisions of any Trading Market on which any of the securities of the Company are listed or designated. 

(dd) Solvency. Based on the consolidated financial condition of the Company as of each Closing Date and except as set
forth in the SEC Reports, after giving effect to the receipt by the Company of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities hereunder, (i) the anticipated fair saleable value of the Company’s business and its assets exceeds the amount that
will be required to be paid on or in respect of the Company’s existing debts and other liabilities (including known contingent liabilities) as they mature, (ii) the Company’s assets do not constitute unreasonably small capital to
carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted including its capital needs taking into account the particular capital requirements of the business conducted by the Company, consolidated and projected capital requirements and
capital availability thereof, and (iii) the current cash flow of the Company, together with the proceeds the Company would receive, were it to liquidate all of its assets, after taking into account all anticipated uses of the cash, would be
sufficient to pay all amounts on or in respect of its liabilities when such amounts are required to be paid. The Company does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature (taking into account the timing and amounts
of cash to be payable on or in respect of its debt). The Company has no knowledge of any facts or circumstances which lead it to believe that it will file for reorganization or liquidation under the bankruptcy or reorganization laws of any
jurisdiction within one year from each Closing Date. As of the date hereof, there has been no material change to the Indebtedness set forth in SEC Reports, detailing all outstanding secured and unsecured Indebtedness of the Company or any
Subsidiary, or for which the Company or any Subsidiary has commitments. For the purposes of this Agreement, “Indebtedness” means (x) any liabilities for borrowed money or amounts owed in excess of $50,000 (other than trade
accounts payable incurred in the ordinary course of business), (y) all guaranties, endorsements and other contingent obligations in respect of indebtedness of others, whether or not the same are or should be reflected in the Company’s
consolidated balance sheet (or the notes thereto), except guaranties by endorsement of negotiable instruments for deposit or collection or similar transactions in the ordinary course of business; and (z) the present value of any lease payments
in excess of $50,000 due under leases required to be capitalized in accordance with GAAP. Except as described in the SEC Reports, neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in default with respect to any Indebtedness. 

(ee) Tax Status. Except for matters that would not, individually or in the aggregate, have or reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Company and its Subsidiaries each (i) has made or filed all United States federal, state and local income and all foreign income and franchise tax returns, reports and declarations required by any
jurisdiction to which it is subject, (ii) has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such returns, reports and declarations and (iii) has set aside on its
books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing
authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the Company or of any Subsidiary know of no basis for any such claim. 

(ff) Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, nor to the knowledge of the Company or any
Subsidiary, any agent or other person acting on behalf of the

purchased, or, paid any compensation for soliciting purchases of, any of the Securities, or (iii) paid or agreed to pay to any Person any compensation for soliciting another to purchase any other securities of the Company, other than, in the
case of clauses (ii) and (iii), compensation paid to the Company’s placement agent in connection with the placement of the Securities. 

(ii) Office of Foreign Assets Control. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary, to the Company’s knowledge, any
director, officer, agent, employee or affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary is currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department (“OFAC”). 

(jj) U.S. Real Property Holding Corporation. The Company is not and has never been a U.S. real property holding
corporation within the meaning of Section 897 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Company shall so certify upon Investor’s request. 

(kk) Bank Holding Company Act. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates is subject to the Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”) and to regulation by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”). Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates

pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened. 

  
 13

Placement Agent may request at least one business day before the time of purchase (as defined below). 
 Deliveries of the documents with
respect to the purchase of the Securities, if any, shall be made at the offices of Placement Agent Counsel. All actions taken at a Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously. 

Section 4. Covenants and Agreements of the Company. The Company further covenants and agrees with the Placement Agent as follows:

 (a) Registration Statement Matters. The Company will advise the Placement Agent promptly after it receives notice
thereof of the time when any amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed or becomes effective or any supplement to any Prospectus or any amended Prospectus has been filed and will furnish the Placement Agent with copies thereof. The
Company will file promptly all reports and any definitive proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act subsequent to the date of any
Prospectus and for so long as the delivery of a prospectus is required in connection with the Offering. The Company will advise the Placement Agent, promptly after it receives notice thereof (i) of any request by the Commission to amend the
Registration Statement or to amend or supplement any Prospectus or for additional information, and (ii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any post-effective
amendment thereto or any order directed at any Incorporated Document, if any, or any amendment or supplement thereto or any order preventing or suspending the use of the Preliminary Prospectus or any Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto
or any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement, of the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the institution or threatened institution of any proceeding for any such purpose, or
of any request by the Commission for the amending or supplementing of the Registration Statement or a Prospectus or for additional information. The Company shall use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order or prevention or
suspension of such use. If the Commission shall enter any such stop order or order or notice of prevention or suspension at any time, the Company will use its best efforts to obtain the lifting of such order at the earliest possible moment, or
will 

  
 14 

 
file a new registration statement and use its best efforts to have such new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable. Additionally, the Company agrees that it shall
comply with the provisions of Rules 424(b), 430A, 430B and 430C, as applicable, under the Securities Act, including with respect to the timely filing of documents thereunder, and will use its reasonable efforts to confirm that any filings made
by the Company under such Rule 424(b) are received in a timely manner by the Commission. 
 (b) Amendments and
Supplements to a Prospectus and Other Matters. The Company will comply with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Securities
as contemplated in this Agreement, the Incorporated Documents and any Prospectus. If during the period in which a prospectus is required by law to be delivered in connection with the distribution of Securities contemplated by the Incorporated
Documents or any Prospectus (the “Prospectus Delivery Period”), any event shall occur as a result of which, in the judgment of the Company or in the opinion of the Placement Agent or counsel for the Placement Agent, it becomes
necessary to amend or supplement the Incorporated Documents or any Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, as the case may be, not misleading, or if
it is necessary at any time to amend or supplement the Incorporated Documents or any Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus or to file under the Exchange Act any Incorporated Document to comply with any law, the Company will promptly prepare and file
with the Commission, and furnish at its own expense to the Placement Agent and to dealers, an appropriate amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Registration Statement, the Incorporated Documents or any Preliminary Prospectus
or Prospectus that is necessary in order to make the statements in the Incorporated Documents and any Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus as so amended or supplemented, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, as the case may
be, not misleading, or so that the Registration Statement, the Incorporated Documents or any Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, will comply with law. Before amending the Registration Statement or supplementing the
Incorporated Documents or any Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus in connection with the Offering, the Company will furnish the Placement Agent with a copy of such proposed amendment or supplement and will not file any such amendment or supplement
to which the Placement Agent reasonably objects. 
 (c) Copies of any Amendments and Supplements to a Prospectus. The
Company will furnish the Placement Agent, without charge, during the period beginning on the date hereof and ending on the later of the last Closing Date of the Offering, as many copies of the Incorporated Documents and any Preliminary Prospectus or
Prospectus and any amendments and supplements thereto (including any Incorporated Documents, if any) as the Placement Agent may reasonably request. 

(d) Free Writing Prospectus. The Company covenants that it will not, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the
Placement Agent, make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute a Company Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act)
required to be filed by the Company with the Commission or retained by the Company under Rule 433 of the Securities Act. In the event that the Placement Agent expressly consents in writing to any such free writing prospectus (a “Permitted
Free Writing Prospectus”), the Company covenants that it shall (i) treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as a Company Free Writing Prospectus, and (ii) comply with the requirements of Rule 164 and 433 of the Securities Act
applicable to such Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record keeping. 

  
 15 

 (e) Transfer Agent. The Company will maintain, at its expense, a registrar
and transfer agent for the Common Stock. 
 (f) Earnings Statement. As soon as practicable and in accordance with
applicable requirements under the Securities Act, but in any event not later than 18 months after the last Closing Date, the Company will make generally available to its security holders and to the Placement Agent an earnings statement, covering a
period of at least 12 consecutive months beginning after the last Closing Date, that satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) and Rule 158 under the Securities Act. 

(g) Periodic Reporting Obligations. During the Prospectus Delivery Period, the Company will duly file, on a timely
basis, with the Commission and the Trading Market all reports and documents required to be filed under the Exchange Act within the time periods and in the manner required by the Exchange Act. 

(h) Additional Documents. The Company will enter into any subscription, purchase or other customary agreements as
the Placement Agent or the Investors deem necessary or appropriate to consummate the Offering, all of which will be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company, Placement Agent and the Investors. The Company agrees that the Placement
Agent may rely upon, and each is a third party beneficiary of, the representations and warranties, and applicable covenants, set forth in any such purchase, subscription or other agreement with Investors in the Offering. 

(i) No Manipulation of Price. The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action
designed to cause or result in, or that has constituted or might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of any securities of the Company. 

(j) Acknowledgment. The Company acknowledges that any advice given by the Placement Agent to the Company is solely for
the benefit and use of the Board of Directors of the Company and may not be used, reproduced, disseminated, quoted or referred to, without the Placement Agent’s prior written consent. 

(k) Approval by Shareholders. The Company agrees to file a proxy statement under Section 14a of the Exchange Act or
information statement pursuant to Section 14c of the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission and obtain approval of the Offering from the Company’s shareholders of the Offering, including issuances in excess of the maximum
number of shares issuable under the rules or regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Shareholder Approval”). The Company will be subject to the Equity Sale Restriction (as hereafter defined), until Shareholder Approval is obtained.

(iii) When the Registration Statement became effective, at the time of sale, and at all times subsequent thereto up to the

rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, as the case may be, and the Registration Statement and the Incorporated Documents, if any, did not and do not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Placement Agent, its affiliates and each person controlling the
Placement Agent (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act), and the directors, officers, agents and employees of the Placement Agent, its affiliates and each such controlling person (the Placement Agent, and each such
entity or person. an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any losses, claims, damages, judgments, assessments, costs and other liabilities (collectively, the “Liabilities”), and shall reimburse each Indemnified
Person for all fees and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for all Indemnified Persons, except as otherwise expressly provided herein) (collectively, the “Expenses”) as they are incurred by an
Indemnified Person in investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending any Actions, whether or not any Indemnified Person is a party thereto, (i) caused by, or arising out of or in connection with, any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in any Incorporated Document or by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading (other than untrue statements or alleged untrue statements in, or omissions or alleged omissions from, information relating to an Indemnified Person furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person expressly for use in the
Incorporated Documents) or (ii) otherwise arising out of or in connection with advice or services rendered or to be rendered by any Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated thereby or any Indemnified
Person’s actions or inactions in connection with any such advice, services or transactions; provided, however, that, in the case of clause (ii) only, the Company shall not be responsible for any Liabilities or Expenses of any
Indemnified Person that are finally judicially determined to have resulted solely from such Indemnified Person’s (x) gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with any of the advice, actions, inactions or services referred to
above or (y) use of any offering materials or information concerning the Company in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities in the Offering which were not authorized for such use by the Company and which use constitutes gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The Company also agrees to reimburse each Indemnified Person for all Expenses as they are incurred in connection with enforcing such Indemnified Person’s rights under this Agreement. 

(b) Upon receipt by an Indemnified Person of actual notice of an Action against such Indemnified Person with respect to which
indemnity may be sought under this Agreement, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing; provided that failure by any Indemnified Person so to notify the Company shall not relieve the Company from any liability which the
Company may have on account of this indemnity or otherwise to such Indemnified Person, except to the extent the Company shall have been prejudiced by such failure. The Company shall, if requested by the Placement Agent, assume the defense of any
such Action including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Placement Agent, which counsel may also be counsel to the Company. Any Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless: (i) the Company has failed promptly to assume the defense and employ counsel or (ii) the named parties
to any such Action (including any impeded parties) include such Indemnified Person and the Company, and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised in the reasonable opinion of 

  
 20 

 
counsel that there is an actual conflict of interest that prevents the counsel selected by the Company from representing both the Company (or another client of such counsel) and any Indemnified
Person; provided that the Company shall not in such event be responsible hereunder for the fees and expenses of more than one firm of separate counsel for all Indemnified Persons in connection with any Action or related Actions, in addition to any
local counsel. The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any Action effected without its written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld). In addition, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of the Placement
Agent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened Action in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all Liabilities arising out of such Action for which
indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder. The indemnification required hereby shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of the investigation or defense, as such expense, loss, damage or liability is
incurred and is due and payable. 
 (c) In the event that the foregoing indemnity is unavailable to an Indemnified Person
other than in accordance with this Agreement, the Company shall contribute to the Liabilities and Expenses paid or payable by such Indemnified Person in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits to the Company, on
the one hand, and to the Placement Agent and any other Indemnified Person, on the other hand, of the matters contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by the immediately preceding clause is not permitted by applicable
law, not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Placement Agent and any other Indemnified Person, on the other hand, in connection with the matters as to which such Liabilities or Expenses
relate, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided that in no event shall the Company contribute less than the amount necessary to ensure that all Indemnified Persons, in the aggregate, are not liable for any Liabilities and
Expenses in excess of the amount of fees actually received by the Placement Agent pursuant to this Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph, the relative benefits to the Company, on the one hand, and to the Placement Agent on the other hand, of the
matters contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as (a) the total value paid or contemplated to be paid to or received or contemplated to be received by the Company in the transaction or transactions that are
within the scope of this Agreement, whether or not any such transaction is consummated, bears to (b) the fees paid to the Placement Agent under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within
the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act, as amended, shall be entitled to contribution from a party who was not guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation. 

(d) 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 advice or services rendered or to be rendered by any Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated thereby or any Indemnified Person’s actions or
inactions in connection with any such advice, services or transactions except for Liabilities (and related Expenses) of the Company that are finally judicially determined to have resulted solely from such Indemnified Person’s fraud, gross
negligence or willful misconduct in connection with any such advice, actions, inactions or services. 
 (e) The
reimbursement, indemnity and contribution obligations of the Company set forth herein shall apply to any modification of this Agreement and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any termination of, or the completion of any Indemnified
Person’s services under or in connection with, this Agreement. 

  
 21 

 Section 8. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery. The respective
indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company or any person controlling the Company, of its officers, and of the Placement Agent set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and
effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Placement Agent, the Company, or any of its or their partners, officers or directors or any controlling person, as the case may be, and will survive delivery of and payment for the
Securities sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement. A successor to a Placement Agent, or to the Company, its directors or officers or any person controlling the Company, shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution
and reimbursement agreements contained in this Agreement.

 EXHIBIT A 

Form of Lock-Up Agreement 

November[●], 2017 
 Aegis Capital Corp. 

810 Seventh Avenue, 18th Floor 

New York, New York 10019 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

The undersigned understands that Aegis Capital Corp. (the “Placement Agent”) proposes to enter into Placement Agency
Agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with Precipio, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), providing for the placement (the “Placement”) of shares of Series C Preferred Stock, par
value $0.01 per share, (the “Shares”) and warrants to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.01, of the Company. 

To induce the Placement Agent to continue its efforts in connection with the Placement, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior
written consent of the Placement Agent, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the final prospectus (the “Prospectus”) relating to the Placement (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or
exchangeable for Shares, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition (collectively, the
“Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise;
(3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Lock-Up Securities; or (4) publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to
enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement relating to any Lock-Up Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of the Placement Agent in connection with (a) transactions relating to Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market
transactions after the completion of the Placement; provided that no filing under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), shall be required or shall be voluntarily
made in connection with subsequent sales of Lock-Up Securities acquired in such open market transactions; (b) transfers of Lock-Up Securities as a bona fide
gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of a family member (for purposes of this lock-up agreement, “family member” means any relationship by blood, marriage or
adoption, not more remote than first cousin); (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities to a charity or educational institution; (d) if the undersigned is, or directly or indirectly controls, a corporation,
partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of similar equity interests in, the undersigned, as the
case may be; (e) the transfer of Lock-Up Securities upon a vesting event of the Company’s securities or upon the exercise of options or warrants to purchase
Lock-Up Securities, in each case on a “cashless” or “net exercise” basis or to cover tax withholding obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise, provided
that the securities received upon such exercise shall remain subject to the restrictions provided for in this lock-up agreement; (f) if the undersigned is or was an officer, director or employee of the
Company, transfers to the Company pursuant to the Company’s right of repurchase upon termination of the undersigned’s service with the Company; (g) transfers by operation of law, including pursuant to domestic relations or court
orders; (h) the occurrence after the date hereof of any of (w) an 

  
 26 

 
acquisition by an individual or legal entity or “group” (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act) of effective
control (whether through legal or beneficial ownership of capital stock of the Company, by contract or otherwise) of 100% of the voting securities of the Company, (x) the Company merges into or consolidates with any other entity, or any entity
merges into or consolidates with the Company, (y) the Company sells or transfers all or substantially all of its assets to another person or (z) the commencement of a tender or exchange offer made to all holders of the Company’s
capital stock involving a change of control of the Company; or (i) transfers consented to in writing by the Placement Agent; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (b), (c) or (d), (i) any such
transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) each transferee shall sign and deliver to the Placement Agent a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this
lock-up agreement and (iii) no filing under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act shall be required or shall be voluntarily made. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer
instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Lock-Up Securities except in compliance with this
lock-up agreement. 
 The undersigned agrees that, prior to engaging in any transaction or taking
any other action that is subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement during the period from the date hereof to and including the 34th day following the
expiration of the initial Lock-Up Period, the undersigned will give notice thereof to the Company and will not consummate any such transaction or take any such action unless it has received written
confirmation from the Company that the Lock-Up Period (as may have been extended pursuant to the previous paragraph) has expired. 

If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the undersigned agrees that the foregoing restrictions shall be equally
applicable to any issuer-directed or “friends and family” Shares that the undersigned may purchase in the Placement; (ii) the Placement Agent agrees that, at least three (3) business days before the effective date of any release
or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Lock-Up Securities, the Placement Agent will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver; and (iii) the Company has
agreed in the Placement Agency Agreement to announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two (2) business days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted
by the Placement Agent hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two (2) business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release or waiver
is effected solely to permit a transfer of Lock-Up Securities not for consideration and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this lock-up agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of such transfer. 

No provision in this agreement shall be deemed to restrict or prohibit the exercise, exchange or conversion by the undersigned of any
securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into Shares, as applicable; provided that the undersigned does not transfer the Shares acquired on such exercise, exchange or conversion during the
Lock-Up Period, unless otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of this lock-up agreement. In addition, no provision herein 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 Lock-Up Securities within the Lock-Up Period). 

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Placement Agent are relying upon this lock-up
agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Placement. The undersigned further understands that this lock-up agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal
representatives, successors and assigns. 

  
 27 

 The undersigned understands that, if the Placement Agency Agreement is not executed by
November 15, 2017, or if the Placement Agency Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the Shares to be sold thereunder, then this lock-up agreement shall be void and of no further force or effect. 
 Whether or not the Placement
actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Placement will only be made pursuant to a Placement Agency Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Placement Agent.
