Exhibit 10.1

LINE OF CREDIT LETTER AGREEMENT

Dated as of December 19, 2017

GALECTIN THERAPEUTICS, INC.

4960 Peachtree Industrial Blvd., Suite 240

Norcross, Georgia 30071

Gentlemen:

Richard E. Uihlein, an individual resident of the State of Illinois (“ Uihlein ”), hereby confirms that he is holding available to Galectin Therapeutics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “ Company ”), subject to the restrictions outlined below, a line of credit to finance the Company’s working capital needs in the amount of $10,000,000 (the “ Line of Credit ”). Advances made hereunder may be made by Uihlein or such other lenders, as may be identified in writing by Uihlein within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date hereof, and who become a party to this Line of Credit Agreement by execution of the Joinder Agreement on Exhibit D hereof.

Each advance made pursuant to the Line of Credit by Uihlein, or such other lenders as may extend credit under this Line of Credit (collectively, the “ Lenders ”), shall be evidenced by a Promissory Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (each, a “ Promissory Note ”), executed by a duly authorized officer of the Company, which shall represent the Company’s obligation to pay the principal amount of such advance with interest thereon. The Lenders shall make requested advances promptly after a draw is submitted by the Company. The Line of Credit may be drawn upon through December 31, 2018, through draws no more frequently than semi-monthly. The Promissory Notes may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty, but with interest on the amount prepaid. As set forth therein, the Promissory Notes shall bear interest (based upon the principal amount outstanding from time to time) payable on or before December 31, 2019, at the Applicable Federal Rate for short term loans published by the Internal Revenue Service as may be in effect at the time of such applicable advance, which interest rate on the date hereof is 1.51%. The date and amount of any borrowing pursuant to the Line of Credit and each payment of principal in respect thereof shall be (i) reflected by the Company on Schedule 1 attached hereto, which Schedule 1 shall be amended by the Company from time to time, without any further action by Uihlein or any Lender, to reflect each new advance pursuant to the Line of Credit.

In consideration for making the Line of Credit available, the Company shall issue a warrant to Uihlein for 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“ Common Stock ”), with an exercise price of $5.00 per share (the “ Warrant ”) in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B . The Warrant will vest (i) with respect to 500,000 shares of Common Stock (the “ Initial Vesting Warrant Shares ”) upon the execution of this Line of Credit Letter Agreement, and (ii) with

respect to the remaining 500,000 shares of Common Stock (the “ Remaining Warrant Shares ”) ratably if and as the loan proceeds are advanced. For example, if $5,000,000 has been advanced on the Line of Credit in the aggregate, then the Warrant will have vested with respect to 750,000 shares of Common Stock (500,000 shares from the initial vesting and 250,000 shares with respect to the advance of $500,000). Provided that each Lender is an “accredited investor,” as such term is defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in the event any Lender other than Uihlein becomes a party to this Line of Credit by the execution of the Joinder Agreement set forth on Exhibit D hereto, then Uihlein shall transfer and assign a pro rata portion of Warrant to such Lender, which assignment shall relate to a pro rata portion of the Initial Vesting Warrant Shares as well as a pro rata portion of the Remaining Warrant Shares based on the dollar amount of the commitment made by such Lender out of the total $10,000,000 available pursuant to the Line of Credit. For example, if an additional Lender becomes a party to the Line of Credit with a commitment to advance $2,000,000, Uihlein shall transfer a portion of the Warrant equal to one-fifth of the Warrant, which transferred Warrant shall relate to 100,000 of the Initial Vesting Warrant Shares and 100,000 Remaining Warrant Shares.

The company agrees that so long as any Promissory Note is outstanding the Company will not grant a security interest in the material assets of the Company to any person or entity.

No other document shall evidence the indebtedness of Uihlein which may be created pursuant to the terms of this Line of Credit, other than the Promissory Note.

2

This Line Letter shall be governed by, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia.

Agreed and Accepted as of

December 19, 2017

If, as a consequence of any such transaction, solely cash, and no securities or other property of any kind, is deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant, then, in such event, the Company may terminate this Warrant by giving the Holder hereof written notice thereof. Such notice shall specify the date (at least thirty (30) days subsequent to the date on which notice is given) on which, at 3:00 P.M., Norcross, Georgia time, this Warrant shall terminate. Notwithstanding any such notice, this Warrant shall remain exercisable, and otherwise in full force and effect, until such time of termination.

3.4 Small Adjustments . No adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease in the Exercise Price of at least one percent; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this Section 3.5 are not required to be made immediately shall be carried forward and taken into account at the time of exercise of this Warrant or any subsequent adjustment in the Exercise Price which, singly or in combination with any adjustment carried forward, is required to be made under Sections 3.1 or 3.2 .

4. Reservation of Stock, etc., Issuable on Exercise of Warrant . The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, all shares of Common Stock from time to time issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant.

5. Disposition of This Warrant, Common Stock, Etc.

(a) The Holder of this Warrant and any transferee hereof or of the Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant may be exercisable, by their acceptance hereof, hereby understand and agree that this Warrant and the Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant may be exercisable have not been registered under the Securities Act, and may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated, donated, or otherwise transferred (whether or not for consideration) without an effective registration statement under the Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company and/or submission to the Company of such other evidence as may be satisfactory to counsel to the Company, in each such case, to the effect that any such transfer shall not be in violation of the Act. It shall be a condition to the transfer of this Warrant that any transferee thereof deliver to the Company its written agreement to accept and be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Warrant.

(b) Except to the extent the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise hereof are registered for resale, or may be sold to the public pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act, the certificates of the Company that will evidence the shares of Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant may be exercisable will be imprinted with a conspicuous legend in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED, DONATED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED (WHETHER OR NOT FOR CONSIDERATION) BY THE HOLDER WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND/OR SUBMISSION TO THE COMPANY OF SUCH OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY BE SATISFACTORY TO COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY, IN EACH SUCH CASE, TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY SUCH TRANSFER SHALL NOT BE IN VIOLATION OF THE ACT.”

5

The Company agrees to prepare and file with the Securities Exchange Commission within 180 days from the date hereof a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock that are issuable with respect to this Warrant. Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, the Company has not agreed to register any of the Holder’s shares of Common Stock of the Company with respect to which this Warrant may be exercisable for distribution in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act, and the Company has not agreed to comply with any exemption from registration under the Act for the resale of the Holder’s shares of Common Stock with respect to which this Warrant may be exercised. Hence, it is the understanding of the Holder of this Warrant that by virtue of the provisions of certain rules respecting “restricted securities” promulgated by the SEC, the shares of Common Stock of the Company with respect to which this Warrant may be exercisable may be required to be held indefinitely, unless and until registered under the Securities Act, unless an exemption from such registration is available, in which case the Holder may still be limited as to the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company with respect to which this Warrant may be exercised that may be sold from time to time.

6. Rights and Obligations of Warrant Holder . The Holder of this Warrant shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company. No provision of this Warrant, in the absence of affirmative actions by the Holder to purchase Common Stock of the Company by exercising this Warrant, and no enumeration in this Warrant of the rights or privileges of the Holder, will give rise to any liability of such Holder for the Exercise Price of Common Stock acquirable by exercise hereof or as a stockholder of the Company.

7. Transfer of Warrants . Subject to compliance with the restrictions on transfer applicable to this Warrant referred to in Section 5 hereof, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part to other Lenders pursuant to the Line of Credit Letter Agreement, without charge to the registered Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant with a properly executed Assignment (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B), to the Company, and the Company at its expense will issue and deliver to or upon the order of the Holder hereof a new Warrant or Warrants in such denomination or denominations as may be requested, but otherwise of like tenor, in the name of the Holder or as the Holder (upon payment of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct.

8. Replacement of Warrants . Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Company at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant of like tenor.

9. Company Records . Until this Warrant is transferred on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

10. Miscellaneous.

10.1 Notices. All notices and other communications from the Company to the Holder of this Warrant shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, to such address as may have been furnished to the Company in writing by such Holder, or, until an address is so furnished, to and at the address of the last Holder of this Warrant who has so furnished an address to the Company. All communications from the Holder of this Warrant to the Company shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, to Galectin Therapeutics, Inc., 4960 Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, Suite 240, Norcross, GA 30071, Attn: Chief Financial Officer, or such other address as may have been furnished to the Holder in writing by the Company.
