Re:

Amendment to Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants and Series C Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

To whom it may concern:

You are receiving this notice (this “Notice”) in your capacity as the registered Holder of the Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants, and Series C Warrants (each as defined in the SPA (as defined below) and together, the “Warrants”) of Arch Therapeutics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), that were issued in connection with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 30, 2014, among the Company and the investors listed on the Schedule of Buyers thereto (the “SPA”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein not otherwise defined in this Notice shall have the meaning given to them in the Warrants.

Pursuant to Section 8 of each of the Warrants, the Company hereby provides notice that the Company entered into that certain Amendment to Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants and Series C Warrants to Purchase Common Stock, dated as of December 2, 2014, with Cranshire Capital Master Fund, Ltd. (the “Amendment”), to amend certain provisions of the Warrants.

Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company amended the terms of the Warrants to (i) reduce the Exercise Price of the Series B Warrants from $0.35 to $0.20, (ii) reduce the Exercise Price of the Series C Warrants from $0.40 to $0.20, and (iii) clarify that each Series of Warrants may be amended without having to amend all three Series of Warrants. Because the Exercise Price of the Series B Warrants and Series C Warrants was not reduced as a result of the application of either Section 2(a) or Section 2(b) of the Warrants, the number of Warrant Shares which may be purchased from the Company upon exercise of each such Warrant remained unchanged. A copy of the executed Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Very truly yours,
