However, the sticking point now appears to be whether the 5th-game

says he'll walk if it falls. Chessbase gives only a 40% chance that the
impasse will be resolved.

Just an idea, but what about giving 1/2 point to Topalov for game 5,
which means that he can win by 6.0 - 5.5, which basically gives him
draw odds. Does that make sense (it might not).
