**DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES** 

CureVac N.V. ("***CureVac***") is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***SEC***") this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement (No. 333-246197) on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on August 14, 2020, as amended by and including Post-Effective Amendment No. 1, filed with the SEC on August 27, 2020 (the "***Registration Statement***"), to withdraw and remove from registration the unissued securities issuable under the Registration Statement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 12, 2025 (the "***Purchase Agreement***"), by and between CureVac and BioNTech SE, a European stock corporation (*Societas Europaea*, or SE) organized under the laws of Germany and the European Union ("***BioNTech***"), BioNTech (i) completed an offer to exchange each outstanding common share, par value €0.12 per share, of CureVac ("***CureVac Shares***") for BioNTech American Depositary Shares and (ii) completed the Post-Offer Reorganization (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), pursuant to which it became the sole owner of all of CureVac's business operations, CureVac ceased to exist, and no public shareholders continued to hold any CureVac Shares.

As a result of the Post-Offer Reorganization, the offerings of CureVac's securities pursuant to the Registration Statement have been terminated. In accordance with an undertaking made by CureVac in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities registered under the Registration Statement that remain unissued at the termination of the offerings, CureVac hereby removes from registration the securities registered but unissued under the Registration Statement.
