</DIV>


<DIV align="right" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt">September&nbsp;12, 2007
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ENTREMED, INC., a Delaware corporation located at the address stated below

September&nbsp;12, 2007, among Borrower, the other Loan Parties signatory thereto, General Electric

amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the &#147;<U>Agreement</U>&#148;),

Documents referred to therein, to which Agreement reference is hereby made for a statement of all
of the terms and conditions under which the loans evidenced hereby were made. All capitalized
terms, unless otherwise defined herein, shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms
in the Agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The principal amount of the indebtedness evidenced hereby shall be payable in the amounts and on

terms of the Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">All payments shall be applied in accordance with the Agreement. The acceptance by Lender of any
payment which is less than payment in full of all amounts due and owing at such time shall not
constitute a waiver of Lender&#146;s right to receive payment in full at such time or at any prior or
subsequent time. The payment of any Scheduled Payment prior to its due date shall result in a
corresponding increase in the portion of the Scheduled Payment credited to the remaining unpaid
principal balance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">All amounts due hereunder and under the other Debt Documents are payable in the lawful currency of

hereby made to the Agreement and the other Debt Documents for a description of the properties and
assets in which a security interest has been granted, the nature and extent of the security
interest, the terms and conditions upon which the security interest was granted and the rights of
the holder of the Note in respect thereof.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Time is of the essence hereof. If Lender does not receive from Borrower payment in full of any
Scheduled Payment or any other sum due under this Note or any other Debt Document within 3&nbsp;days
after its due date, Borrower agrees to pay the Late Fee in accordance with the Agreement. Such
Late Fee will be immediately due and payable, and is in addition to any other costs, fees and
expenses that Borrower may owe as a result of such late payment.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">This Note may be voluntarily prepaid only as permitted under Section&nbsp;2.4 of the Agreement. After
an Event of Default, this Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate
pursuant to Section&nbsp;2.6 of the Agreement.
