5 ENZO’S TIME IS NOW ENZO IS POSITIONED TO CREATE SUSTAINED VALUE FOR ITS SHAREHOLDER S Industry Challenge Enzo Solution While demand for MDx is rapidly increasing , reimbursement is rapidly declining – and lab margins could decline by an additional 20 - 30 percentage points under new payment policies (1) x Enzo’s structure is designed to deliver on the development and production of cost - effective , high - performance , easily adaptable MDX products and services that, we believe, will provide a 30% - 50% savings to the current MDx market (1) The culmination of strategic planning and years of building a vertically integrated company uniquely positions Enzo Biochem, Inc. (“Enzo” or “the Company”) to create significant long - term value for its stockholders Enzo is now positioned to satisfy a significant need in the Molecular Diagnostics (“MDx”) market The Company’s unique integrated structure is the key to delivering the solution (1) Company estimate
6 LONE STAR VALUE’S LACK OF SPECIFICITY AND VALUE - ADD An investment manager called Lone Star Value Management LLC (“Lone Star”) with a 1.23% position in Enzo is currently seeking 40% representation on Enzo’s board (1) We believe Lone Star’s interests are not aligned with other shareholders – Lone Star has demonstrated a history of short - term trading in stocks in which it has been involved – Lone Star’s trading activity (in and out) of Enzo’s stock is the antithesis of long - term value creation We believe Lone Star’s nominees are not independent of one another and are not independent of Jeff Eberwein, the Founder and CEO of Lone Star – Mr. Eberwein operates in an insular circle with a web of interconnections to his Enzo nominees – John Climaco and Dimitrios Angelis became paid consultants and/or employees of his targeted companies We believe Lone Star and its nominees have no articulate plan for our business other than self - enrichment, jobs, stock trades, etc. – We provided Mr . Eberwein, Mr. Climaco, and Mr. Angelis with numerous opportunities to share their ideas for Enzo – and yet they never offered a single idea as to how they would create shareholder value any differently than the Company’s current plan – In fact, they were complimentary toward Enzo’s board and management – If elected to Enzo’s board , a majority of the independent directors would be controlled by Lone Star We believe Lone Star has a track record of destroying value for shareholders (2) – Lone Star’s failures overwhelmingly dwarf its successes – so much so that we can’t imagine why any shareholder would want to gamble on their involvement (1) Lone Star Value Investors LP (“Lone Star”) Schedule 14A, filed with SEC on December 2, 2015 (2) See pages 51 - 68
7 x Solid corporate strategy and well positioned to execute in the current environment x Delivering solid returns to shareholders - 3 - year TSR of 71.9% x Innovative Technology and P atent Estate beginning to create value x Management team with depth and experience…expanding in core areas x Independent, diverse directors and governance programs x Improving financial performance, including increasing revenue and expanding margins Rapidly reducing its Enzo ownership while simultaneously pursuing a proxy fight Nominees appear highly conflicted and not qualified for Enzo’s Board Track record of poor TSR performance on current and previous board representation Have not presented a single idea or plan to increase shareholder return False and misleading claims in preliminary proxy statements Nominees have a poor track record of corporate governance Lone Star is not a long - term or significant shareholder of Enzo, rather they are stock traders EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Lone Star
x A business model and operational structure that are positioned to address the imminent needs of the growing but challenged MDx industry x The ability to further leverage Enzo’s vertically integrated business structure to create value for shareholders x A board and management team with a deep understanding of the MDx marketplace and a proven track record of developing valuable biotech innovations , the value of which is now being harvested x An ownership culture in which directors and management do own shares of common stock – their interests are perfectly aligned with the interests of long - term shareholders 8 THE CHOICE FOR SHAREHOLDERS IS CLEAR! Disruption of Enzo’s current trajectory by an investor that openly admits he “doesn’t understand our business” (1) A 67% change in independent directors by a 1.2% shareholder who has not put forth a single idea on how they would create value for shareholders An investor and nominees with innumerable interconnected relationships that appear to have an abysmal track record An investor who has bought 1,916,784 shares and sold 2,201,784 stock over the past two years – a shareholder that we believe trades in Enzo’s stock opportunistically (2) Lone Star (1) Lone Star discussion with the Company (2) Lone Star Value Investors Schedule 14A, filed with SEC on December 2, 2015

24 MD x MARKET CHALLENGES Demand for MDx is rapidly increasing, and we believe it is growing at 2x the rate of the overall diagnostic market (1) Despite growing demand, reimbursement for MDx tests is in long - term decline (1) MDx margins within labs could decline by another 20 - 30 percentage points under new payor guidelines (1) Meanwhile, we believe the costs for performing MDx tests are increasing (1) MDx product companies are not reducing the cost of the products to the clinical labs despite downward reimbursement pressure ENZO BELIEVES IT CAN ADDRESS THIS CHALLENGE AND DELIVER TO ITS CUSTOMERS A 30% - 50% REDUCTION IN SAVINGS THROUGH ITS INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS MDx Market Margins are Under Intense Pressure (1) Company estimate

26 CLINICAL LABS UNDER PRESSURE “There are three key pieces of information that were released by CMS on Friday, September 25, including: 1) a proposed rule to change Medicare Clinical Lab Fee Schedule reimbursement based on the PAMA legislation enacted in 2014, 2) proposed methodologies for pricing new codes for 2016, and 3) the second round of gap - fill pricing for new codes being priced in 2015. This data in addition to market volatility has caused meaningful valuation adjustment across the space, with many stocks trading at trough levels .” William Blair, October 5, 2015 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 CY 2010 CY 2011 CY 2012 CY 2013 CY 2014 LabCorp Quest (1) FactSet DECLINING REIMBURSEMENT RATES ARE ALREADY PRESSURING LAB MARGINS EBITDA Margin (1)
27 OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCIES HAVE ALREADY VIRTUALLY MAXED OUT Clinical labs have made substantial efforts to reduce costs and, we believe, have focused their effort on labor expenses Market consolidation is largely complete Due to government - mandated staffing levels, clinical labs are no longer able to continue to cut labor costs as aggressively as in the past The cost of referring MDx tests to other clinical labs has not responded to reimbursement pressure either Thus, clinical labs, we believe, cannot effectively respond to reimbursement limitations MDx COMPANIES HAVE NOT AND CANNOT REDUCE PRICES In many clinical labs, the costs of reagents – utilized to run diagnostic tests – are 20 % of their revenues (1) We believe MDx companies have generally refused to – or have been unable to – reduce the prices they charge to clinical labs due to margin pressure If MDx companies did reduce price as the market needs, in our view, their profits would be reduced Therefore, clinical labs cannot receive margin relief from MDx companies Closed systems complete the margin squeeze Diagnostic companies are single - platform - centric, meaning that they sell test kits to the clinical labs that generally only work on the instrumentation with which they were sold This antiquated razor - razorblade model, which has dominated the industry for years, is in desperate need of disruption INDUSTRY’S INABILITY TO RESPOND TO REIMBURSEMENT PRESSURE THE PROTECTING ACCESS TO MEDICARE ACT OF 2014 (OR “PAMA”) IS RESETTING THE ENTIRE LABORATORY FEE SCHEDULE – THIS “ RESETTING” IS RESULTING IN SUBSTANTIAL CUTS TO LABORATORY REIMBURSEMENT RATES (1) Company estimate
28 THE RIGID RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN LABS AND MDX PROVIDERS Closed MDx System MDx Test “Company A” makes the MDx test “Company A” also makes the MDx s ystem that can only use “Company A’s ” MDx t est Closed - end systems are developed by MDx companies to perform MDx tests that only accept proprietary reagents In part because of the development costs of these systems, MDx companies attempt to lock in agreements with clinical labs for certain MDx tests, which has made the labs hostage to higher reagent prices and, thus, lower margins Closed Systems Explained WE BELIEVE BEING “STUCK” WITH CLOSED - END SYSTEMS IS A LARGE CONT RIBUTOR TO THE DECLINING MARGIN PRESSURE OF CLINICAL LABS

43 LONE STAR’S NOMINEES ARE NOT INDEPENDENT When Mr. Eberwein first suggested Mr. Angelis and Mr. Climaco for the Board of Enzo, he asserted that they were “completely independent” and that he had met them on the Board of Digirad (1) A closer examination, however, shows in no uncertain terms that Mr. Angelis and Mr. Climaco are part of an insular group of underfunded hedge funds that use activism as a tool to obtain short - term opportunities at small - cap c ompanies with fewer resources to defend against their tactics As can be seen on the following slide, Lone Star and its nominees have a dizzying array of interconnections – all of which demonstrate that Lone Star and its nominees lack credible independence At a minimum, the numerous relationships between Lone Star and its fellow “comrades” call into question Lone Star’s appetite for “diverse ideas” and indicate a presence for short - term results, potentially pushing for undue risks in hopes of an occasional opportunity for employment and/or consultation, as evidenced by many of their recent board appointments Although Mr. Eberwein has been on only three public company boards with Mr. Angelis and two public company boards with Mr. Climaco, we believe the number of connections among them is staggering This is especially remarkable by today’s standards, in which shareholders have overwhelmingly demonstrated an appetite for both director independence and directors with excellent track records ENZO IS BEGINNING TO HARVEST ITS YEARS OF INNOVATION, AND WE BEL IEVE IT IS NOT IN SHAREHOLDER INTERESTS TO ALLOW LONE STAR AND ITS NOMINEES TO DISRUPT OUR COMPANY’S PROSPECTS (1) Discussion with Company LONE STAR’S DEPENDENT NOMINEES ARE SEEKING TO REPLACE A MAJORITY OF ENZO’S INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS

On October 29, 2014, John Climaco resigned from PDI’s Board of Directors On October 29, 2014, the same day as Climaco’s resignation , Digirad, where Mr. Eberwein is a director, sent a letter to PDI expressing its willingness to acquire PDI John Climaco was also on the Digirad Board of Directors at the time, and on the same day he left PDI’s Board, Digirad attempted to acquire PDI On October 29, 2014, the PDI Board declined Digirad’s offer, claiming it “does not consider PDI for sale and does not view [Digirad’s] letter to be a meaningful offer” On October 31, 2014, Digirad sent a letter to PDI questioning whether the PDI Board was acting in the best interest of shareholders Digirad claimed PDI was “showing its disregard for stockholder rights and stockholder value by refusing to consider a potentially significant value - enhancing transaction” Digirad also claimed that this was an “unacceptable response for a board that has presided over such a tremendous destruction of stockholder value” Climaco was on the Board of PDI during this period of “tremendous destruction,” yet he was also part of the Digirad Board that was attacking the PDI Board’s performance – we question Mr. Climaco’s independence in these interactions It is important to note that Chuck Gillman (also a member of the Digirad Board along with Eberwein, Climaco, and Angelis) is the founder of Boston Avenue Capital, a business partner with Heartland Advisors, the largest shareholder of PDI, Inc.

47 WHAT’S GOING ON AT DIGIRAD ? On July 24, 2015, the Company’s majority - owned Polish subsidiary, Perma - Fix Medical and Digirad Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ Digirad ”), Nasdaq: DRAD, entered into a multi - year Tc - 99m Supplier Agreement (the “Supplier Agreement”) and a Series F Stock Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), (together, the “ Digirad Agreements”). The Supplier Agreement is effective upon the completion of the Subscription Agreement. Perma - Fix Medical was formed to develop and commercialize a new process to produce Technetium - 99 (“Tc - 99m”), the most widely used medical isotope in the world. Pursuant to the terms of the Digirad Agreements, Digirad purchased 71,429 shares of Perma - Fix Medical’s restricted Series F Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1,000,000 . Under Polish law, issuance of shares requires approval of the shares by the Polish court which is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2015. In the event that the shares are not approved by the Polish co urt within 120 days from the date of payment by Digirad to Perma - Fix Medical of the $1,000,000 purchase price on July 24, 2015, Perma - Fix Medical and Digirad have agreed that Perma - Fix Medical will return the $1,000,000 to Digirad and the Digirad Agreements shall terminate. The 71,429 share investment made by Digirad , when completed, will constitute approximately 5.4% of the outstanding common shares of Perma - Fix Medical. Upon issuance of the 71,429 shares to Digirad , the Company’s ownership interest in Perma - Fix Medical would be diluted from approximately 64.0% to approximately 60.5%. The Supplier Agreement provides, among other things, that upon Perma - Fix Medical’s commercialization of certain Tc99m generators, Digirad will purchase agreed upon quantities of Tc - 99m for its nuclear imaging operations either directly or in conjunction with its preferre d nuclear pharmacy supplier and Perma - Fix Medical will supply Digirad , or its preferred nuclear pharmacy supplier, with Tc - 99m at a preferred pricing, subject to certain conditions. Mr. Climaco is a Director of the Company and Executive Vice - President of Perma - Fix Medical. Mr. Climaco is also a Director of Digirad . Mr. Climaco abstained in connection with the Board’s approval of the above transactions with Digirad .

49 LONE STAR NOMINEE: JOHN CLIMACO Enzo’s management team has known Mr. Climaco for approximately three years We were first introduced to Mr. Climaco when he approached Enzo in an effort to explore channels of distribution for his Axial Biotech product, which we turned down after being entirely unimpressed with both Mr. Climaco and Axial’s product Mr . Climaco was the Founder, President, and CEO of Axial Biotech, which was founded in 2003 and funded for ~$25.3 million and sold for ~$ 4.4 million to Transgenomic – a loss of approximately 80% (1) We have been unable to determine if this product has made any profit for its current owner, nor did Mr. Climaco provide this information Mr. Eberwein claims that Mr. Climaco would make a good candidate because of his “nine years as a CEO of a company involved in clinical lab services” (2) Based on the failures of Axial Biotech, we have to question both Mr. Eberwein’s judgment and Mr. Climaco’s relevant experience In spite of this, Lone Star offered to have Enzo simply accept Mr. Climaco to the Board as part of a proposed settlement agreement It would have been remarkably easy for us to have simply expanded the Board and added Mr. Climaco to avoid the expense and distraction of a contested election. However , we obviously have genuine and serious concerns about Mr. Climaco after thorough examination of his record Additionally, when asked by Enzo to furnish his resume in advance of a meeting with the nominating committee of our Board, Mr. Climaco presented a list of his “Public Board Experience” Omitted from Mr. Climaco’s list of previous public board experience were Essex Rental Corp., which lost 90% of value and announced intent to delist and deregister its common stock during his six - month directorship, and ALCO Stores , which ended up in Chapter 11 bankruptcy during his directorship (3) MR.

55 We believe that Mr. Eberwein’s track record as an activist investor and corporate director appears to be quite poor S ince starting his activist fund in 2012, Mr. Eberwein has been one of the most activist investors in the U.S., routinely targeting smaller - cap companies in diverse industries and repeatedly putting forward an unimpressive cast of related nominees for consideration Although Mr. Eberwein appears to have been successful as a serial short - term activist by achieving settlements at many companies and has himself sat on 11 public boards , closer examination indicates an overwhelming and disturbing pattern of value destruction, as discussed in the following pages We believe that Mr. Eberwein anticipated Enzo would join his rapidly growing list of “success stories”; however, Enzo has worked too hard and come too far to passively allow Mr. Eberwein or his “independent” nominees to disrupt the Company’s current trajectory Enzo has analyzed Mr. Eberwein’s “strategy,” or lack thereof, and has determined that his platform provides no benefit for shareholders We respect the input of shareholders, which is why Dov Perlysky, who Mr. Eberwein wants to replace, currently sits on our board P OOR TRACK RECORD EXAMINING THE POOR TRACK RECORD OF LONE STAR AND ITS NOMINEES, COMBINED WITH A COMPLETE LACK OF ANY PLAN , WHY WOULD SHAREHOLDERS WANT THEM ON THE ENZO BOARD?

74 Enzo is open to directors nominated by shareholders – as was the case when Dov Perlysky was placed on Enzo’s Board – but the Nominating and Governance Committee thoroughly vetted Lone Star’s nominees and unanimously determined that adding Lone Star’s nominees to Enzo’s Board in no way provides unique value to shareholders given their track record and skills In fact, none of the Company’s independent directors had, prior to their nomination, any existing relationship with management, the Company, or other directors. These directors were identified to the Company by the Company’s shareholders and/or independent advisors
December 2015 www.enzo.com Addressing Lone Star’s Uninformed Critique of Enzo 75
76 “POOR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE” In the Company’s preliminary proxy statement, Lone Star criticizes the Company as having poor financial performance Lone Star chooses to “stop the clock” on Enzo’s share performance before the Company’s stock appreciated an additional 50% Does Lone Star deciding to cherry - pick performance measurement dates demonstrate appropriate judgment? LONE STAR HAS MADE MORE THAN A 30% RETURN ON ENZO STOCK – THUS, ITS CURIOUS GRAPHS ARE A MATERIAL MISREPRESENTATION Why does Lone Star use “Average Returns” and not median returns? Source: Lone Star Schedule 14A, filed with SEC on December 2, 2015
77 “CONCERNS WHETHER DIRECTOR DOV PERLYSKY TRULY REPRESENTS THE COMPANY’S PUBLIC SHAREHOLDERS” “We also have concerns whether D irector Dov Perlysky truly represents the Company’s public shareholders, as he is the son - in - law of Rosalind Davidowitz, who had an approximate 9.3% ownership interest in the Company at the time Mr. Perlysky was appointed to the Board in September 2012.” Lone Star Preliminary Proxy Statement, 12/2/2013 Does Lone Star believe that Mr. Perlysky wants Enzo’s stock to go down because his mother - in - law owns over 9% equity position in the Company? Mr. Davidowitz has been a key long - term Enzo shareholder. How have our public shareholders fared since Mr. Perlysky joined the Board? SINCE MR. PERLYSKY JOINED THE ENZO BOARD, OUR STOCK HAS APPRECIATED 100% Source: Lone Star Schedule 14A, filed with SEC on December 2, 2015
78 “CLASSIFIED BOARD STRUCTURE, POOR CORPORATE GOVERNANCE, AND LIMITATIONS ON SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS” In yet another demonstration of what we believe is its lack of understanding of our business, Lone Star pays special attention to criticizing Enzo’s classified board Enzo’s classified board is a necessary protection at this point in our Company, since we have litigation against companies in which the potential settlement amounts exceed our current enterprise value We believe Enzo’s shareholders should receive these potential benefits, and having a classified board is, in our view, the most effective way of preventing a hostile acquirer from taking control of Enzo for their own benefit We also have a comprehensive business plan in place and continuity on a Board that reviewed, approved, and understands that the plan is important during its execution
79 “RELATED - PARTY TRANSACTIONS” In its preliminary proxy statement, Lone Star expresses concerns regarding the Company’s “ related - party transactions” Although Lone Star repeatedly states "transactions ” to suggest that there are multiple, there is, in fact, a single related - party transaction which has been in place for 25 years and is unquestionably beneficial for Enzo’s shareholders The singular related - party transaction that Lone Star is concerned with is the Company’s lease of its clinical lab in Farmingdale, NY We believe this criticism is not only disingenuous, but it also demonstrates a complete lack of knowledge of Enzo and the lab industry In 1990, Enzo was experiencing financial challenges and was in dire need of an expanded laboratory facility in order to grow its business. To address this challenge, an LLC supported by the founders of the Company acquired a property in Long Island and immediately structured a market - rate lease for the Company Lone Star questions “why Enzo did not purchase the facility outright from the beginning ” Quite simply, Enzo did not have the capital at such time; f urthermore, this is a question of capital allocation – Would shareholders really want an emerging B iotech Company to use its capital to acquire real estate? Not only could Enzo not have just “purchased the facility outright,” they also did not have the financial profile to secure a lease from an independent party Since that time , all of the rent increases for the lab have been associated with significant square footage expansions, increases in real estate tax rates (nnn lease), and regional cost of living adjustments At inception, the facility was ~25,000 square feet and today is ~43,000 square feet Significant adjustments and annual variability in Long Island real estate tax rates, which are a simple pass - through and standard for nnn leases The independent members of the Board have retained CB Richard Ellis to review all lease renewals to ensure that the rates and terms are fair and customary Finally, moving locations for a clinical lab is extraordinarily challenging, both logistically and financially The stability provided by the current structure is tremendously favorable and has given the Company the latitude to sustainably grow and innovate Source: Lone Star Schedule 14A, filed with SEC on December 2, 2015
80 Lone star’s attempt to depict the Company’s clinical lab lease as somehow unfair or enriching the management team at the expense of shareholders, we believe, demonstrates either: a complete misunderstanding of the facts, or a further attempt to potentially mislead shareholders
