Effective January 9, 2012, EpiCept Corporation (the "Company") reduced the exercise price and extended the expiration date of the Company’s outstanding Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrants that were issued in a registered direct offering that closed on June 30, 2010 (the "Series B Warrants").

The exercise price has been reduced to $0.20 per share, and the expiration date has been extended to the close of business on the earlier of (i) April 9, 2012 or (ii) a date selected by the Company in its sole discretion, with respect to which date the Company provides written notice to the warrant holder not less than ten business days in advance.

Each holder of Series B Warrants executed an Amendment to Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrant to reduce the exercise price and extend the expiration date. A Form of Amendment to Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrant is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.
