are exercisable for the first time by the Grantee during any calendar year,
under the Plan or any other stock option plan of the Company or a parent or subsidiary,
exceeds $100,000, then the Option, as to the excess, shall be treated as a
nonqualified stock option that does not meet the requirements of Section
422.&#160; If and to the extent that the
Option fails to qualify as an incentive stock option under the Code, the Option
shall remain outstanding according to its terms as a nonqualified stock option.</font></p>

to notify the Company in writing immediately after he or she makes a
disqualifying disposition (as described in the Code and regulations thereunder)
of any stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options

disposition is generally any disposition occurring within two years of the date
the incentive stock option was granted or within one year of the date the
incentive stock option was exercised, whichever period ends later.</font></p>

of this Stock Option Grant Certificate and the Plan, the Grantee may exercise
part or all of the vested Option by giving the Company written notice of intent
to exercise in the manner provided in Paragraph 11 below, specifying the number
of Shares as to which the Option is to be exercised.&#160; On the delivery date, the Grantee shall pay
the exercise price (i) in cash, (ii) with the prior consent of the Committee,
by delivering Shares of the Company (duly endorsed for transfer or accompanied
by stock powers signed in blank) which shall be valued at their fair market
value on the date of delivery, or (iii) by such other method as the Committee
may approve, including payment through a broker in accordance with procedures

Company to deliver Shares upon exercise of the Option shall be subject to all
applicable laws, rules, and regulations and such approvals by governmental

securities laws and regulations.&#160; The
Company may require that the Grantee (or other person exercising the Option
after the Grantee&#146;s death) represent that the Grantee is purchasing Shares for
the Grantee&#146;s own account and not with a view to or for sale in connection with
any distribution of the Shares, or such other representation as the Board deems
appropriate.&#160; All obligations of the
Company under this Stock Option Grant Certificate shall be subject to the
rights of the Company as set forth in the Plan to withhold amounts required to
be withheld for any taxes, if applicable.&#160;
Subject to Committee approval, the Grantee may elect to satisfy any
income tax withholding obligation of the Company with respect to the Option by
having Shares withheld with a fair market value equal to the federal (including
FICA), state and local tax liabilities with respect to the exercise of the Option,
based on the minimum statutory tax rates applicable to supplemental wages.</font></p>

issuance, sale or transfer (including a transfer as a result of death,
disability, operation of law or otherwise) in a single transaction or group of
related transactions to any entity, person or group (other than Safeguard
Scientifics, Inc. and/or its affiliates) of the beneficial ownership of newly
issued, outstanding or treasury shares of the capital stock of the Company
having 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company&#146;s then
outstanding securities entitled to vote for at least a majority of the
authorized number of directors of the Company, or any merger, consolidation,
sale of all or substantially all of the assets or other comparable transaction
as a result of which all or substantially all of the assets and business of the
Company are acquired directly or indirectly by another entity which prior to
the acquisition was not an affiliate of the Company (as defined in the
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act
of 1933), other than any such merger, consolidation, sale or other transaction
which results in the Company&#146;s voting securities outstanding immediately before
the transaction continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by
being converted into voting securities of the Company or the person that, as a
result of the transaction, controls, directly or indirectly, the Company or
owns, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the Company&#146;s assets
or otherwise succeeds to the business of the Company (the Company or such
person, the &#147;Successor Entity&#148;)) directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the
combined voting power of the Successor Entity&#146;s outstanding voting securities
immediately after the transaction.&#160; Group
shall have the same meaning as in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, and &#147;affiliate&#148; shall have the same meaning as in Rule 405 of the
Securities Exchange Commission adopted under the Securities Act of 1933.</font></p>
