VOTING AND PROXY PROCEDURES

Only Stockholders of record on the Record Date will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the 2025 Annual Meeting. Each share of Common
Stock is entitled to one vote. Stockholders who sell shares of Common Stock before the Record Date (or acquire them without voting rights after the Record Date) may not vote such shares of Common Stock. Stockholders of record on the Record Date will
retain their voting rights in connection with the 2025 Annual Meeting even if they sell such shares of Common Stock after the Record Date. Based on the Company’s proxy statement, we believe that the only outstanding class of securities of the
Company entitled to vote at the 2025 Annual Meeting is the shares of Common Stock.

Shares of Common Stock represented by properly
executed WHITEproxy cards will be voted at the 2025 Annual Meeting as marked and, in the absence of specific instructions, will be voted (1) “FOR”the election of the Deep Track Nominees to the Board, (2)“FOR”the approval of named executive officer compensation, (3) “FOR”the ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2025 fiscal year, (4)
“FOR” the approval of the Declassification Plan (5) “FOR”the approval the Bylaw Proposal, and (6) in the proxy holder’s discretion as to other matters that the Deep Track Parties do not know, a reasonable
time before the solicitation, are to be presented at the 2025 Annual Meeting.

The Deep Track Parties and Dynavax will each be using a
universal proxy card for voting on the election of directors at the 2025 Annual Meeting, which will include the names of all nominees for election to the Board. Stockholders will have the ability to vote for up to four nominees on the Deep Track
Parties’ enclosed WHITEproxy card. There is no need to use the Company’s gold proxy card or voting instruction form, regardless of how you wish to vote.

The Company has a classified Board, which is currently divided into three classes. The terms of four Class I directors expire at the 2025
Annual Meeting. Through the attached Proxy Statement and enclosed WHITEproxy card, we are soliciting proxies to elect the four Deep Track Nominees.
