Communications With Safeguard’s Board of Directors

Safeguard’s Audit Committee has established procedures for confidential, anonymous submissionof complaints by employees and for receipt, retention and treatment of complaints, from whatever source, received by Safeguard, regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters. Any person who desires to contact the Audit Committee may do so by addressing correspondence to the Audit Committee Chair, in care of the Corporate Secretary, at:

Safeguard Scientifics, Inc.
150 N. Radnor Chester Road, Suite F-200
Radnor, PA 19087

All such communications are sent to the Chair of the Audit Committee, and after consultation with the Chair of the Audit Committee, may be sent to the other members of the Audit Committee.

All other communications directed to the Board of Directors or any specified director(s) should be addressed in care of the Corporate Secretary at the address noted above. All communications are initially reviewed by the Corporate Secretary. The Chair of the Audit Committee is advised promptly of any such communication that alleges misconduct on the part of Safeguard’s management or raises legal, ethical or compliance concerns about Safeguard’s policies or practices.

On a regular basis, the Chair of the Audit Committee receives updates on other communications received from shareholders that raise issues related to the affairs of Safeguard but which do not fall into the two prior categories. The Chair of the Audit Committee determines which of these communications he would like to see. The Corporate Secretary will maintain a log of all such communication which will be available for review upon request of any member of the Board. Typically, we do not forward to our independent directors communications from our shareholders or other communications which are of a personal nature or not related to the duties and responsibilities of the Board, including, without limitation, business plan or other business opportunity submissions, inquiries related to products or services provided by Safeguard’s companies, spam, junk mail and mass mailings, resumes and other forms of job inquiries, surveys or polls, business solicitations or advertisements, and any material that relates to improper or irrelevant topics or is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly unsuitable.
