10 novavax.com Phase 1/2 published in NEJM “At 35 days, NVX - CoV2373 appeared to be safe, and it elicited immune responses that exceeded levels in Covid - 19 convalescent serum. The Matrix - M1 adjuvant induced CD4+ T - cell responses that were biased toward a Th1 phenotype.” New England Journal of Medicine CONCLUSION:

11 novavax.com NVX - CoV2373 Phase 1 clinical trial conclusions Data demonstrates a dose independent response • Both dosage levels induce high and comparable levels of IgG – dose - sparing • IgG levels compared favorably to those seen in convalescent serum • 100% IgG seroconversion rate • Adjuvant required for optimal immune response Strong T cells response with adjuvanted vaccine • Multifunctional CD4 + T cells induced • Largely Th1 favored phenotype Wild - type neutralization levels numerically superior to convalescent serum • Both dosage levels induce high and comparable wild - type neutralization levels • 100% wild - type neutralization seroconversion rate after 2 nd dose • Neutralization response is tightly correlated with IgG response Phase 1 demonstrated reassuring safety and reactogenicity profile • No serious adverse events • All unsolicited adverse event were mild or moderate • Local and systemic reactogenicity was not dose limiting
