party shall promptly notify the other parties of such third party activities, including
identification of the third party and delineation of the facts relating to such third party

Patents, Novavax Know-How and Developed Know-How against any actual or alleged infringement or
misappropriation thereof in the Territory by a third party (by bringing a suit, action or

licenses granted to Novavax in Section 2.2 against any actual or alleged infringement or
misappropriation thereof outside the Territory by a third party (by bringing a suit, action or
proceeding against such third party), at Novavax’s sole expense. If the Company does not enforce
the Novavax Patents or Know-How by (i) one hundred (100) days following the notice of alleged
infringement or (ii) thirty (30) days before the time limit, if any, set forth in the appropriate
laws and regulations for the filing of such an action, whichever comes first, then Novavax shall
have the right (but not the obligation) to enforce the Novavax Patents and Novavax Know-How against
any actual or alleged infringement or misappropriation thereof in the Territory by a third party
(by bringing a suit, action or proceeding against such party), at Novavax’s sole expense. The

activities, at the prosecuting party’s expense, including by agreeing to be named as a party to (or
bringing in its own name) such suit, action or proceeding for the benefit of the non-prosecuting
party if required for such enforcement action to proceed. The prosecuting party shall keep the
non-prosecuting party reasonably informed regarding any such enforcement action and shall consider

time arise during the Term which relate to either Party’s rights and/or obligations hereunder. It
is the objective of the Parties to establish procedures to facilitate the resolution of disputes
arising under this Agreement in an expedient manner by mutual cooperation and without resort to
litigation. To accomplish this objective, the Parties agree to follow the procedures set forth in
this Article 10 if and when a dispute arises under this Agreement.

     10.2 Arbitration. Any dispute arising between the Parties out of or in connection with the
implementation or interpretation of this Agreement shall, if not settled amicably within ninety
(90) days from the date that the dispute arose, be finally settled by three (3) arbitrators. Each

competent jurisdiction restraining such breach or threatened breach and specific performance of any
provision of this Agreement.

     10.3 Equitable Claims. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 10, either
Party has the right to seek temporary injunctive relief or any other interim equitable remedy in
any court of competent jurisdiction as may be available to such Party under the laws applicable to
such jurisdiction that may be necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party until such
time as any dispute underlying such temporary injunctive relief or any other interim equitable
remedy has been resolved in accordance with Section 10.2.

     10.4 Governing Law. The substantive laws of India will govern the resolution of all disputes,
controversies and claims under, arising out of or relating to the validity, construction,
enforceability or performance of this Agreement and any related remedies, without giving effect to
any choice of law rules.

     10.5 Award. Each Party will abide by any arbitral award rendered pursuant to this Article 10.
If a Party resists enforcement of an arbitral award, any costs, fees or taxes incident to
enforcement will be charged against that Party to the extent permitted by Law. Each Party will
bear its own legal fees for arbitration, and the arbitrator(s) will assess their costs, fees and
expenses against the Party losing the arbitration.

     10.6 Injunctive Relief. If a Party makes a sufficient showing under the rules and standards
set forth in the rules of civil procedure and applicable Law, the arbitrator may, and the Parties
will abide by, injunctive measures after either Party submits in writing for arbitration claims
requiring immediate relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in accordance with Section 10.3, a
Party will also be free at any time to bring an Equitable Claim to any court of competent
jurisdiction without submitting such request to an arbitrator.

     10.7 Confidentiality. Any arbitration proceeding, including without limitation the existence
of any dispute submitted to arbitration and any arbitral award or decision, will be Confidential
Information of both Parties, and the arbitrator(s) will issue appropriate protective orders to
safeguard each Party’s Confidential Information, provided that such Confidential Information may be

otherwise required by Law (subject to Article 6).
