Shah Capital Management,
Inc. and the other participants named herein (collectively, “Shah Capital”) previously filed a preliminary proxy statement
and accompanying GOLD universal proxy card with the Securities and Exchange Commission to be used to solicit votes against the election
of Richard H. Douglas, Margaret G. McGlynn and David Mott (the “Class II Directors”) to the Board of Directors of Novavax,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Novavax” or the “Company”) at the Company’s 2024 upcoming annual meeting
of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) and against the approval of certain of the Company’s other proposals to be considered
by stockholders at the Annual Meeting.
On May 20, 2024, Shah
Capital withdrew its solicitation against the re-election of the Class II Directors and certain other proposals to be considered by stockholders
at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, Shah Capital has terminated its proxy solicitation and will not be soliciting proxies in connection
with the Annual Meeting and will not vote any proxies received from stockholders of the Company on the GOLD proxy card at the Annual Meeting.
Stockholders who wish
to vote on the election of directors and other proposals to be considered at the Annual Meeting should vote on the Company’s proxy
card or voting instruction form. If you have already voted, you do not need to take any action unless you wish to revoke your proxy or
change your vote.
