Amendment No. 2

to Supply Agreement

This Amendment No. 2, (“Amendment No. 2”) effective as of September 30, 2022 (the “Effective Date”) amends that certain Supply Agreement having an effective date of July 1, 2021, as amended to date (the “Agreement”) by and between the parties hereto (each a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement, Biological E. Limited (“Customer”) ordered, and Dynavax Technologies Corporation (“Dynavax”) delivered, and/or shipped, and/or committed to supplying certain quantities of Dynavax Adjuvant to Customer;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement, Customer submitted, among other things, purchase order numbered [*] (“PO [*]”) covering [*] kilograms of Dynavax Adjuvant and, following acceptance of such PO [*] by Dynavax, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and PO [*], PO [*] became non-cancelable by Customer;

WHEREAS, the Parties now wish to amend the Agreement in order to establish a payment schedule for (i) certain past due amounts receivable as of the Effective Date for deliveries of Dynavax Adjuvant pertaining to certain Non-CEPI allocated materials totaling [*] (the “Past Due Non-CEPI Payments”) and (ii) amounts receivable for deliveries to be made of Dynavax Adjuvant pertaining to certain Non-CEPI allocated materials (the “Remaining Non-CEPI Payments”), each as set forth herein;

WHEREAS, notwithstanding the non-cancelable nature of the order and the related costs incurred by Dynavax, Customer now desires to cancel its obligations with respect to [*] kilograms from PO [*] (the “Cancelled Portion”);

WHEREAS, in connection with PO [*], Customer made the required pre-payment of the requisite percentage of the order value, representing [*] (the “Prepayment”) applicable to the Cancelled Portion; and

WHEREAS, the Parties now desire to make a modification to PO [*] and certain other changes to payment terms as described in greater detail below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in exchange for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
