THIRD AMENDMENT

TO

LOAN AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

     This Third Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement is entered into as of June 20, 2005 (the
“Amendment”), by and between COMERICA BANK (“Bank”) and LAUREATE PHARMA, INC. (“Borrower”).

RECITALS

     Borrower and Bank are parties to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December
1, 2004, as amended, including without limitation by that certain First Amendment to Loan and
Security Agreement dated as of January 31, 2005 and that certain Second Amendment to Loan and
Security Agreement dated as of May 6, 2005 (collectively, the “Agreement”). The parties desire to
amend the Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Amendment.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

     1. Section 4 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as
follows:

     “4. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST.

          4.1 Grant of Security Interest. Borrower grants and pledges to Bank a
continuing security interest in all presently existing and hereafter acquired or
arising Collateral in order to secure prompt repayment of any and all Obligations
and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each of its covenants and
duties under the Loan Documents. Except as set forth in the Schedule, such security
interest constitutes a valid, first priority security interest in the presently
existing Collateral, and will constitute a valid, first priority security interest
in later-acquired Collateral. Notwithstanding any termination, Bank’s Lien on the
Collateral shall remain in effect for so long as any Obligations are outstanding.

          4.2 Perfection of Security Interest. Borrower authorizes Bank to file
at any time financing statements, continuation statements, and amendments thereto
that (i) either specifically describe the Collateral or describe the Collateral as
all assets of Borrower of the kind pledged hereunder, and (ii) contain any other
information required by the Code for the sufficiency of filing office acceptance of
any financing statement, continuation statement, or amendment, including whether
Borrower is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational
identification number issued to Borrower, if applicable. Any such financing
statements may be signed by Bank on behalf of Borrower, as provided in the Code, and
may be filed at any time in any jurisdiction whether or not Revised Article 9 of the
Code is then in effect in that jurisdiction. Borrower shall from time to time
endorse and deliver to Bank, at the request of Bank, all Negotiable Collateral and
other documents that Bank may reasonably request, in form satisfactory to Bank, to
perfect and continue perfected Bank’s security interests in the Collateral and in
order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated under the Loan
Documents. Borrower shall have possession of the Collateral, except where expressly
otherwise provided in this Agreement or where Bank chooses to perfect its security
interest by possession in addition to the filing of a financing statement. Where
Collateral is in possession of a third party bailee, Borrower shall take such steps
as Bank reasonably requests for Bank to (i) obtain an acknowledgment, in form and
substance satisfactory to Bank, of the bailee that the bailee holds such Collateral
for the benefit of Bank, (ii) obtain “control” of any Collateral consisting of
investment property, deposit accounts, letter-of-credit rights or electronic chattel
paper (as such items and the term “control” are defined in Revised Article 9 of the
Code) by causing the securities intermediary or depositary institution or issuing
bank to execute a control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Bank.
Borrower will not create any chattel paper without placing a legend on the chattel
paper acceptable to Bank indicating that Bank has a security interest in the chattel
paper. Borrower from

1

 

time to time may deposit with Bank specific cash collateral to secure specific
Obligations; Borrower authorizes Bank to hold such specific balances in pledge and
to decline to honor any drafts thereon or any request by Borrower or any other
Person to pay or otherwise transfer any part of such balances for so long as the
specific Obligations are outstanding.

          4.3 Right to Inspect. Bank (through any of its officers, employees, or
agents) shall have the right, upon reasonable prior notice, from time to time during
Borrower’s usual business hours but no more than twice a year (unless an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing), to inspect Borrower’s Books and to make
copies thereof and to check, test, and appraise the Collateral in order to verify
Borrower’s financial condition or the amount, condition of, or any other matter
relating to, the Collateral.”

     2. Exhibit A to the Agreement is hereby replaced with the attached Exhibit A.

     3. Unless otherwise defined, all initially capitalized terms in this Amendment shall be as
defined in the Agreement. The Agreement, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and
effect in accordance with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all
respects. Except as expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this
Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or remedy of
Bank under the Agreement, as in effect prior to the date hereof. Borrower ratifies and reaffirms
the continuing effectiveness of all promissory notes, guaranties, security agreements, mortgages,
deeds of trust, environmental agreements, and all other instruments, documents and agreements
entered into in connection with the Agreement.

     4. Borrower represents and warrants that the representations and warranties contained in the
Agreement are true and correct as of the date of this Amendment, and that no Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing.

     5. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed
an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

     6. As a condition to the effectiveness of this Amendment, Bank shall have received, in form
and substance satisfactory to Bank, the following:

          (a) this Amendment, duly executed by Borrower;

          (b) Corporation Resolutions to Borrow and Incumbency Certification, duly executed by Borrower;

          (c) An Affirmation of Guaranty, duly executed by Safeguard Delaware, Inc. and Safeguard
Scientifics (Delaware), Inc.;

          (d) A legal fee from the Borrower in the amount of $350;

          (e) an amount equal to all Bank Expenses incurred through the date of this Amendment; and

          (f) such other documents, and completion of such other matters, as Bank may reasonably deem
necessary or appropriate.

     (c) all trademarks, service marks, trade names and service names and the goodwill associated

general intangibles consisting of rights to payment, all of which shall at all times constitute
“Collateral”.exv10w6

Security Agreement dated as of January 31, 2005 and that certain Second Amendment to Loan and

Bank’s first priority security interest in the Collateral. Bank has agreed to enter into the
Amendment provided, among other things, that each Guarantor consents to the Amendment and agrees
that the Guaranty will remain effective. In addition, the parties desire to amend the Guaranty in
accordance with the terms of this Amendment and Affirmation.

AGREEMENT

     2. Each Guarantor consents to the execution, delivery and performance by Borrower of the
Amendment and the documents and instruments executed in connection therewith. The Guaranty is and
shall remain in full force and effect with respect to Borrower’s Obligations (as defined in the
Loan Agreement) as modified by the Amendment and otherwise. Each Guarantor confirms that such
Guarantor has no defenses against its obligations under the Guaranty.

     3. The Guaranty, as amended hereby, shall be and remain in full force and effect in accordance
with its respective terms and hereby is ratified and confirmed in all respects. Except as
expressly set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment and
Affirmation and shall not operate as a waiver of, or as an amendment of, any right, power, or
remedy of Bank under the Guaranty, as in effect prior to the date hereof. Each Guarantor ratifies
and reaffirms the continuing effectiveness of all instruments, documents and agreements entered
into in connection with the Guaranty.

     4. Each Guarantor represents and warrants that the Representations and Warranties contained

which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one instrument.

     5. It shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Amendment and Affirmation
that Borrower shall have repaid in full all Equipment Advances under the Loan Agreement.
