NVX-CoV2373 candidate entering Phase 1 clinical trial

Preclinical results
   • Created several candidates; evaluated in animal models with collaborators (University of Maryland)
   • Identified NVX-CoV2373, SARS-CoV-2 candidate, for Phase 1 clinical trials
   • NVX-CoV2373 demonstrated high immunogenicity and stimulated high levels of neutralizing antibodies
   • Provided strong evidence that the vaccine candidate will be highly immunogenic in humans with the
     potential to protect from COVID-19, thus helping to control the spread of this disease

Clinical plans initiated
   • Initiated first-in-human trial in May
   • Preliminary human results for NVX-CoV2373 are anticipated in July

Novavax at the forefront of fighting a COVID pandemic

     Novavax has a viable immunogenic vaccine candidate (NVX-CoV2373) against
     SARS-CoV-2

     Novavax is experienced at rapid vaccine development under pandemic
     circumstances

     NVX-CoV2373 leverages the same technology platform and uses the same adjuvant
     as vaccines with proven efficacy for influenza, ebola and previous corona viruses

     Novavax research and manufacturing capacity made possible through partnerships
     with CEPI, Emergent and need emphasized by BMGF, CEPI, WHO and BARDA

2019 Presidential Executive Order encourages
           influenza vaccine innovation
Critical policy objectives include:
  • Reducing the reliance on egg-based influenza vaccine production
  • Expanding alternative methods
  • Advancing the development of new, broadly protective vaccine candidates

Recombinant influenza vaccines specifically cited as a necessary innovation with the
potential to cut production time and improve efficacy

Novavax supports this order and is advocating for appropriate funding and government
resources to deliver on the Administration’s commitment

NanoFlu Phase 3 clinical trial conclusions
  Primary endpoint met: demonstrated immunologic non-inferiority to Fluzone in terms
  of hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) antibody responses (assayed with egg-derived
  virus reagents) against all four vaccine homologous strains (per CBER criteria).

  Statistically significant higher HAI antibody responses (assayed with wild-type VLP
  reagents) compared to Fluzone:
       • 24—66% improved Day 28 GMTs against homologous strains
       • 34—41% improved Day 28 GMTs against drifted H3N2 strains
       • 11.4—20.4% increased Day 28 seroconversion rate against homologous strains
       • 14.1—16.8% increased Day 28 seroconversion rate against drifted H3N2 strains

  NanoFlu was well-tolerated

NanoFlu Phase 3 clinical trial conclusions
  Primary endpoint met: demonstrated immunologic non-inferiority to Fluzone in terms
  of hemagglutination inhibition (HAI) antibody responses (assayed with egg-derived
  virus reagents) against all four vaccine homologous strains (per CBER criteria).

  Statistically significant higher HAI antibody responses (assayed with wild-type VLP
  reagents) compared to Fluzone:
       • 24—66% improved Day 28 GMTs against homologous strains
       • 34—41% improved Day 28 GMTs against drifted H3N2 strains
       • 11.4—20.4% increased Day 28 seroconversion rate against homologous strains
       • 14.1—16.8% increased Day 28 seroconversion rate against drifted H3N2 strains

  NanoFlu was well-tolerated
