The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 9(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Indemnification of the Company, its Directors and Officers. The Underwriter agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense, as incurred, to which the Company, or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Underwriter), insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus the Time of Sale Prospectus, any Road Show, any free writing prospectus that the Company has used, referred to or filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act or the Prospectus (or such amendment or supplement thereto), or arises out of or is based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, such Preliminary Prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, such Road Show, such free writing prospectus that the Company has used, referred to or filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Securities Act, the Prospectus (or such amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Underwriter expressly for use therein; and to reimburse the Company, or any

The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 9(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Underwriter may otherwise have.

(c) Notifications and Other Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise than under the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 9 or to the extent it is not prejudiced as a proximate result of such failure. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall elect, jointly with all other indemnifying parties similarly notified, by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that a conflict may arise between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of such indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense of such action and approval by the indemnified party of counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 9 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless (i) the indemnified party shall have employed separate counsel in accordance with the proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with local counsel), representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such action), which counsel (together with any local counsel) for the indemnified parties shall be selected by Jefferies (in the case of counsel for the indemnified parties referred to in Section 9(a) above) or by the Company (in the case of counsel for the indemnified parties referred to in Section 9(b) above)) (ii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized in writing the employment of counsel for the indemnified party at the expense of the indemnifying party, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party and shall be paid as they are incurred.

(d) Settlements. The indemnifying party under this Section 9 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by Section 9(c) hereof, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity was or could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding.

Section 10. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 9 is for any reason held to be unavailable to or otherwise insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount paid or payable by such indemnified party, as incurred, as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, from the offering of the Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total gross proceeds from the offering of the Offered Shares pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter, in each case as set forth on the front cover page of the Prospectus bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Offered Shares as set forth on such cover. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Underwriter, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or the Underwriter, on the other hand, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9(c), any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim. The provisions set forth in Section 9(c) with respect to notice of commencement of any action shall apply if a claim for contribution is to be made under this Section 10; provided, however, that no additional notice shall be required with respect to any action for which notice has been given under Section 9(c) for purposes of indemnification.

The Company and the Underwriter agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 10.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10, the Underwriter shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriter in connection with the Offered Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 10, each officer, employee and agent of the Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company with the meaning of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.

Section 11. [Reserved.]

Section 13. Representations and Indemnities to Survive Delivery. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, of its officers and of the Underwriter 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 Underwriter or the Company or any of its or their partners, officers or directors or any controlling person, as the case may be, and, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, will survive delivery of and payment for the Offered Shares sold hereunder and any termination of this Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned, a shareholder and an officer and/or director of the Company, understands that Jefferies & Company, Inc.

applicable, unless Jefferies & Company, Inc. waives, in writing, such extension, except that such extension will not apply if, (i) within three business days prior to the 15th calendar day before the last day of the Lock-up Period, the Company delivers a certificate, signed by the Chief Financial Officer or Chief Executive Officer of the Company, certifying on behalf of the Company that (i) the shares of Common Stock are “actively traded securities” (as defined in Regulation M), (ii) the Company meets the applicable requirements of paragraph (a)(1) of Rule 139 under the Securities Act in the manner contemplated by NASD Conduct Rule 2711(f)(4), and (iii) the provisions of NASD Conduct Rule 2711(f)(4) are not applicable to any research reports relating to the Company published or distributed by the Underwriter during the 15 days before or after the last day of the Lock-up Period (before giving effect to such extension); provided, further, that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to:

(1) if the undersigned is a natural person, (i) any transfers made by the undersigned (a) as a bona fide gift to any member of the immediate family of the undersigned or to a trust, family partnership or family company the beneficiaries of which are exclusively the undersigned or members of the undersigned’s immediate family, (b) by will or intestate succession upon the death of the undersigned, or (c) as a bona fide gift, (ii) the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities pursuant to a plan, contract or instruction that satisfies all of the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Exchange Act, or (iii) the disposition of shares of Common Stock to satisfy any tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of stock options held by the undersigned,

(2) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfers to any shareholder, partner or member of, or owner of a similar equity interest in, the undersigned, as the case may be, if, in any such case, such transfer is not for value, and

(3) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, any transfer made by the undersigned (a) in connection with the sale or other bona fide transfer in a single transaction of all or substantially all of the undersigned’s capital stock, partnership interests, membership interests or other similar equity interests, as the case may be, or all or substantially all of the undersigned’s assets, in any such case not undertaken for the purpose of avoiding the restrictions imposed by this letter agreement or (b) to another corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity so long as the transferee is an affiliate (as defined below) of the undersigned and such transfer is not for value;

provided, however, that in any such case, it shall be a condition to such transfer that (A) the transferee executes and delivers to Xxxxxxxxx & Company, Inc. an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the shares of Common Stock subject to the provisions of this letter agreement, and there shall be no further transfer of such shares of Common Stock, except in accordance with this letter agreement and (B) no public disclosure and no filing by any party to the transfer (donor, donee, transferor or transferee) under the Exchange Act shall be required nor shall be voluntarily made reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock in connection with such transfer or distribution prior to the expiration of the Lock-up Period (as the same may be extended pursuant to the terms hereof).

In addition, the undersigned may at any time after the date hereof enter into a trading plan or modify an existing trading plan that satisfies all of the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B) under the Exchange Act if then permitted by the Company and applicable law.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this letter agreement. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.

This letter agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Re:

Delcath Systems, Inc. – Offering of Common Stock

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Delcath Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Underwriting Agreement, dated July 14, 2011 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), between you and the Company, relating to the sale by the Company to you of 5,000,000 shares (the “Firm Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and up to an additional 750,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) at your option to cover over-allotments. The Firm Shares and the Option Shares are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”

This opinion is being furnished to you pursuant to Section 6(d) of the Underwriting Agreement.

In rendering the opinions stated herein, we have examined and relied upon the following:

(a) the registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-165677) of the Company relating to the Securities and other securities of the Company filed on March 24, 2010 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) allowing for delayed offerings pursuant to Rule 415 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (the “Rules and Regulations”), including information deemed to be a part of the registration statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the Rules and Regulations and the Notice of Effectiveness of the Commission posted on its website declaring such registration statement effective as of April 13, 2010 (such registration statement, at the time it became effective, being hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”);

(b) the prospectus, dated April 13, 2010 (the “Base Prospectus”), which forms a part of and is included in the Registration Statement;

(c) the preliminary prospectus supplement, dated July 14, 2011 (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the Base Prospectus and the Incorporated Documents (as defined below), the “Preliminary Prospectus”), relating to the offering of the Securities in the form filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations;

(d) the final prospectus supplement, dated July 14, 2011 (the “Prospectus Supplement” and, together with the Base Prospectus and the Incorporated Documents, the “Prospectus”), relating to the offering of the Securities in the form filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Rules and Regulations;

(e) the documents described on Schedule I hereto filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and incorporated by reference into the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, s the case may be, as of the date of the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement or Prospectus Supplement, respectively (the “Incorporated Documents”);

(f) an executed copy of the Underwriting Agreement;

(g) a copy of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as of July 20, 2011, and certified pursuant to the Secretary’s Certificate (as defined below);

(h) a copy of the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company certified pursuant to the Secretary’s Certificate;

(i) a copy of certain resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company, adopted on July 13, 2011, and certain resolutions of the Deal Committee thereof, adopted on July 14, 2011, certified pursuant to the Secretary’s Certificate;

(j) an executed copy of the certificate of Xxxxx X. XxXxxxxx, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, dated the date hereof, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit A hereto (the “Company’s Certificate”);

(k) an executed copy of the certificate of Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Assistant Secretary of the Company, dated the date hereof (the “Secretary’s Certificate”);

(l) a specimen certificate evidencing the common stock;

(m) copies of each of the Scheduled Contracts (as defined below);

(n) a copy of a certificate, dated July 13, 2011, and a bringdown verification thereof, dated the date hereof, from the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, with respect to the Company’s existence and good standing in the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Certificate”); and

(o) a copy of a certificate, dated July 12, 2011, and a bringdown verification thereof, dated the date hereof, from the Secretary of State of the State of New York as to the Company’s authorization to do business in the State of New York (the “NY Certificate”).

We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company and such agreements, certificates and receipts of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth below.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures including endorsements, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making our examination of executed documents, we have assumed that the parties thereto, other than the Company, had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and the validity and binding effect thereof on such parties. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others and of public officials, including the facts and conclusions set forth in the Company’s Certificate.

We do not express any opinion with respect to the laws of any jurisdiction other than (i) the laws of the State of New York, (ii) the federal laws of the United

States of America, and (iii) the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).

As used herein: “Organizational Documents” means those documents listed in paragraphs (g) and (h) above. “Scheduled Contracts” means those agreements or instruments described on Schedule II hereto. “Scheduled Orders” means those orders or decrees described on Schedule III hereto (no such orders or decrees are so described).

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions stated herein, we are of the opinion that:

1. Based solely on our review of the Delaware Certificate, the Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing in good standing under the DGCL.

2. Based solely on our review of the NY Certificate, the Company is authorized to do business in the State of New York.

3. The Company has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Underwriting Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

4. The Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Company under the DGCL.

5. Neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Underwriting Agreement nor the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the issuance and sale of the Securities: (i) conflicts with the Organizational Documents, (ii) constitutes a violation of, or a default under, any Scheduled Contract or (iii) contravenes any Scheduled Order.

6. Neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Underwriting Agreement nor the consummation by the Company of the transactions

contemplated thereby, including the issuance and sale of the Securities: (i) violates any law, rule, or regulation of the State of New York, the State of Delaware or the United States of America or (ii) requires the consent, approval, licensing or authorization of, or any filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority under any law, rule or regulation of the State of New York, the State of Delaware or the United States of America except for those consent, approvals, licenses and authorizations already obtained and those filing, recordings and registrations already made.

7. The Securities have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Company under the DGCL and, when the stock certificate is delivered to and paid for by you in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free and clear of any preemptive rights or any similar rights arising under the DGCL, the Organizational Documents or any Scheduled Contract.

8. The Company has authority to issue 70,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, and such authorized capital stock of the Company conforms as to legal matters to the description thereof contained in the Prospectus under the caption “Description of Capital Stock.”

9. The statements in the Preliminary Prospectus under the caption “Description of Capital Stock,” insofar as such statements purport to summarize provisions of the DGCL and the Organizational Documents, fairly summarize such provisions in all material respects.

10. The Company is not and, solely after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Prospectus Supplement, will not be an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

The opinions stated herein are subject to the following qualifications:

(a) except to the extent expressly stated in the opinions contained herein, we do not express any opinion with respect to any law, rule or regulation that is

applicable to any party to the Underwriting Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any such party or any of its affiliates as a result of the specific assets or business operations of such party or such affiliates;

(b) except to the extent expressly stated in paragraph 10 above, we do not express any opinion with respect to any securities, antifraud, derivatives or commodities laws, rules or regulations;

(c) we do not express any opinion with respect to whether the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement will constitute a violation of, or a default under, any covenant, restriction or provision with respect to financial ratios or tests of any aspect of the financial condition or results of operations of the Company; and

(d) the opinion stated in paragraph 10 above is based solely on our discussions with the officers of the Company responsible for the matters discussed therein and our reliance on the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Underwriting Agreement and the Company’s Certificate.

This opinion is furnished only to you and is solely for your benefit in connection with the closing occurring today and the offering of the Securities, in each case pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement. Without our prior written consent, this opinion may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose or relied upon by, or assigned to, any other person for any purpose, including any other person that acquires any Securities or that seeks to assert your rights in respect of this opinion (other than your successor in interest by means of merger, consolidation, transfer of a business or other similar transaction).

Re:

Form of Intellectual Property Counsel Opinion

Dear Sirs:

Such counsel has examined information incorporated by reference in the Company’s April 13, 2010 Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-165677)(the “Registration Statement”) and the Rule 424(b)(5) Prospectus Supplement dated July 14, 2011 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) under the captions “Business - Intellectual Property and Other Rights,” and “Risk Factors - Our success depends in large part on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of third parties” (collectively, the “Designated Intellectual Property Provisions”).

1. All patents and trademarks and pending patent and trademark applications (“Patents and Trademarks”) that are owned by the Company are listed on IP Schedule A, attached hereto. Information concerning the application number, filing data and status of the Patents and Trademarks also is set forth in IP Schedule A, based upon our knowledge.

2. Except as set forth below, to our knowledge, the statements in the above identified Designated Intellectual Property Provisions, insofar as such statements pertain to Intellectual Property matters or purport to describe or summarize applicable provisions of Intellectual Property laws, accurately and fairly represent the information referred to therein.

3. To our knowledge, (A) there are no rights of parties other than the Company to any of the Patents and Trademarks listed on IP Schedule A, (B) there are no pending or threatened actions, suits, proceedings or claims by others challenging the Company’s rights to or in any such Patents and Trademarks and (C) there are no pending or threatened actions, suits, proceedings or claims by others that the Company is infringing or otherwise violating any patent, trademark, or trade secret rights of others.

4. To our knowledge, the Company has complied with the examination requirements of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) duty of candor and disclosure for each of the United States Patents and Trademarks listed in IP Schedule A. No fact has come to our attention that causes us to question the enforceability of any of the Patents and Trademarks listed on IP Schedule A, or to question the validity of any of the Patents and Trademarks listed on IP Schedule A.

5. To our knowledge, there are no legal or governmental proceedings relating to the Company’s patent and trademark rights, other than normal ex parte USPTO examination proceedings and similar proceedings (including, without limitation, opposition proceedings, in other jurisdictions). To our knowledge, all issued patents and trademarks listed on IP Schedule A have been lawfully issued.

6. To our knowledge, and except as described in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there are no agreements with third parties relating to the acquisition, licensing and/or transfer of Intellectual Property rights which have or are anticipated to have a material impact on the Company’s existing or future business, including license agreements, joint venture agreements, marketing and/or distribution agreements or other collaboration agreements that are not currently in effect or that will be expiring soon, nor to our knowledge has there been any notice of termination on or other act indicating a desire to terminate any of the aforesaid agreements.

7. To our knowledge, there are no facts that prevent the Company from using its Intellectual Property and know-how to conduct its business or from enforcing its rights to its Patents and Trademarks.

Nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that the Designated Intellectual Property Provisions, at the time the Registration Statement became effective and at all times subsequent thereto up to and on the date hereof, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Very truly yours,

DELCATH SYSTEMS, INC.

Re:

Delcath Systems, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 6(f) of the Underwriting Agreement dated July 14, 2011 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) between you and Delcath Systems, Inc., a company organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”), relating to the issuance and sale by the Company of 5,000,000 shares (the “Firm-Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and up to an additional 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at your option to cover over-allotments (together with the Firm Shares, the “Shares”) pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Underwriting Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Underwriting Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein.

We have acted in the limited role of special United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and European Union (“EU”) regulatory counsel to the Company with respect to FDA pharmaceutical and EU medical devices regulatory matters in connection with the Company’s offering of securities in the United States (“special FDA and EU counsel”). We have not been retained or engaged by the Company to perform, nor have we performed, any review of any information, other than the statements specifically listed below, for purposes of this letter. We have not been retained or engaged by the Company to perform, nor have we performed, any review of any other information contained in the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus, Time of Sale Prospectus and Prospectus. Additionally, we have not been retained or engaged to provide advice in respect of United States securities laws or the rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder (the “Rules”), nor have we been retained or engaged by the Company to provide advice as to whether any information or any statement, opinion or other writing is required under the United States securities laws or the Rules to be filed with or submitted to, the Securities Exchange Commission, and the matters addressed herein should not be construed as such advice, except as set forth herein.

We have reviewed the following statements in the Preliminary Prospectus, Time of Sale Prospectus and Prospectus under the captions “Regulatory Environment – International Regulation;” “Regulatory Environment – United States Regulation;” “Risks Related to FDA and

Foreign Regulatory Approval – Our failure to obtain, or delays in obtaining, regulatory approvals may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations;” “Risks Related to FDA and Foreign Regulatory Approval – While we have obtained the right to affix the CE Xxxx, we will be subject to significant ongoing regulatory obligations and oversight in the EEA and in any other country where we receive marketing authorization or approval;” “Risks Related to FDA and Foreign Regulatory Approval – The development and approval process in the United States may take many years, require substantial resources and may never lead to the approval of the Delcath chemosaturation system by the FDA for use in the United States;” “Risks Related to FDA and Foreign Regulatory Approval – We have obtained the right to affix the CE Xxxx for the Delcath chemosaturation system as a medical device for the delivery of melphalan. Since we may only promote the device within this specific indication, if physicians are unwilling to obtain melphalan separately for use with the Delcath chemosaturation system, our ability to commercialize the Delcath chemosaturation system in the EEA will be significantly limited;” “Risks Related to FDA and Foreign Regulatory Approval – Even if we obtain regulatory approval for the Delcath chemosaturation system in the United States, our ability to market the Delcath chemosaturation system would be limited to those uses that are approved;” “Risks Related to FDA and Foreign Regulatory Approval – If future clinical trials are unsuccessful, significantly delayed or not completed, we may not be able to market the Delcath chemosaturation system for other indications;” “Risks Related to FDA and Foreign Regulatory Approval —While we have received approval of our clinical trial protocol from the FDA under a SPA, our failure to execute the clinical trial according to the agreed upon trial protocol may result in loss of FDA approval and invalidation of our clinical trials.” “Risks Related to FDA and Foreign Regulatory Approval – We rely on third parties to conduct certain of the clinical trials for the Delcath chemosaturation system, and if they do not perform their obligations to us, we may not be able to obtain regulatory approvals for our system;” and “Risks Related to Manufacturing, Commercialization and Market Acceptance of the Delcath Chemosaturation System – We purchase components for the Delcath chemosaturation system from third parties, some of which are sole-source suppliers” (collectively, the “Regulatory Portion”).

The purpose of our engagement as special FDA and EU counsel was to review the Regulatory Portion disclosure and not to establish or confirm factual matters. Therefore, we have not independently verified, and accordingly are not confirming and assume no responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements relating to factual matters contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, Time of Sale Prospectus and Prospectus, or whether or not the Company is in compliance with the FDA Laws (as defined below) and EU Laws (as defined below). We are familiar with the United States Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the “FFDC Act”) set forth at 21 U.S.C. § 301 et seq., regulations promulgated pursuant to the authority of the FFDC Act, and the enforcement of the FFDC Act and its regulations by the FDA (for purposes of this opinion referred to collectively as the “FDA Laws”); and with EU Council Directive 93/42/EEC of 14 June 1993 concerning medical devices, as amended (the “EU Medical Devices Directive”), and the European Commission guidance and interpretative documents on medical devices (the “EU Medical Devices Guidelines”) (for purposes of this opinion referred to collectively as the “EU Laws”). Our opinion is expressed only with respect to the FDA Laws and EU Laws. We express no opinion as to whether the laws of any jurisdiction other than those

identified above apply, and we express no opinion to the extent the laws of any jurisdiction other than those identified above are applicable to the subject matter hereof.

In connection with our review of the statements in the Regulatory Portion, we have requested from the Company all documents and information material to such statements as they relate to the FDA Laws and EU Laws, and have received, reviewed, and relied upon only (a) documents provided to us by the Company which the Company identified as responsive to requests for all material documents pertaining to the Regulatory Portion, and (b) representations made to us and others during discussions with Mr. Xxxxx Xxxxxx and Xx. Xxxx Xxxxxxx during the period June 1, 2011 – July 12, 2011. We have assumed with your approval the accuracy and completeness of all statements of fact relating to the Company and the status of its products, and you have not asked us to make, and we have not made, any independent investigations with regard to such matters for purposes of rendering the opinion herein. We have also assumed the accuracy and completeness of all documents and records that we have reviewed, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of the documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or reproduced copies. Further, we have not independently verified, nor do we take responsibility for, or are we in any way addressing, any statements of belief attributable to the Company.

On the basis of the foregoing, in reliance thereon and with the foregoing qualifications, we are of the opinion that, insofar as the statements in the Regulatory Portion constitute summaries of the FDA Laws and EU Laws, the Regulatory Portion contains accurate summaries in all material respects of the provisions purported to be summarized therein.

This opinion is rendered solely for your benefit in connection with the closing on the date hereof of the purchase by the Underwriter of the Firm Shares pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement. This opinion may not be used or relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, disclosed to, assigned to, quoted to, filed with, or relied upon by any other person, firm, governmental agency or other entity for any purpose (including any person, firm or other entity that acquires Shares from you), in whole or in part, without our express prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld in our sole discretion. This opinion is limited to the matters stated herein, and no opinion or belief is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated herein. This letter speaks only as to law and facts in effect or existing as of the date hereof and we undertake no obligation or responsibility to update or supplement this letter to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in any law that may hereafter occur.

Sincerely,
