Criteria required to move into efficacy testing Criterion 1: Prevalence of antibodies to gp 120 vaccine antigens to be ≥ 75% • 100% of HVTN 100 subjects developed Env binding antibodies to the Clade C strain in the ALVAC vector, as well as the two Clade C strains in the bivalent gp 120 protein boost. Criterion 2: Magnitude of Env antibody response to be ≥ 50% of that seen in RV 144 • HVTN 100 binding antibody responses were 3. 6 to 8. 8 fold higher than in RV 144. Criterion 3: CD 4 T cell response to Env will be at least equal to that seen in RV 144 • HVTN 100 Env specific CD 4 T cell responses exceeded those in RV 144 (58% vs. 41%, respectively) and showed considerably higher polyfunctionality than in RV 144. (3 B. The polyfunctionality score was shown to be an independent correlate of VE in RV 144. ) Criterion 4: Prevalence of Ig. G antibodies to the V 1 V 2 loop to be ≥ 63% • Prevalence of Ig. G V 1 V 2 to the 1086 Clade C strain in the vaccine was 71% • The cumulative prevalence of Ig. G antibodies to the V 1 V 2 loop was 80%; this level exceeds the threshold predicted for a VE=50% based upon RV 144 Confidential – Do Not Distribute 8 8

HVTN 702 A pivotal phase 2 b/3 multi-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ALVAC-HIV (v. CP 2438) and Bivalent Subtype C gp 120/MF 59 in preventing HIV-1 infection in adults in South Africa § Started in Nov 2016 in RSA § Glenda Gray, Chair § Co-Chairs: Linda Gail Bekker, Fatima Laher, Mookh Malaheha Womandla! 10
Study Schema: HVTN 702 Open for 39 weeks: 997 participants enrolled, averaging 25. 6/week N (total 5400) Primary Vaccine Regimen Booster Month 0 Month 1 Month 3 Month 6 Month 12 2700 ALVAC-HIV (v. CP 2438) ALVAC-HIV+ Bivalent Subtype C gp 120/MF 59® 2700 Placebo Placebo + Placebo Estimated Total Study duration 72 months: • Stage 1: 60 months-18 months for enrolment, 24 months of follow-up for HIV-1 uninfected individuals, 18 months follow up for HIV-1 infected individuals) • Stage 2: an additional 12 months of follow up for uninfected individuals 11
Study Design Features Evaluates Stage 1 vaccine efficacy (VE) to 24 months after 1 st vaccination If evidence of positive VE, evaluates VE durability to 36 months after 1 st vaccination Continuous monitoring for harm Sequential monitoring for non-efficacy/efficacy futility Monitoring for high efficacy 90% power to detect VE of 50% (enrollment through 24 months) = 90% power to reject null hypothesis (VE ≤ 25%) True Average VE (0 -24) 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 12 80% Power to reject null: VE (0 -24) ≤ 25% 7 45 90 100 100 12

Month 18 booster HVTN 702 designed, in part, to test hypothesis that Correlates of Risk (Co. R) identified in RV 144 are, in fact, Correlates of vaccine Protection (Co. P) • Specifically, Ig. G antibodies to V 1 V 2 epitopes in Env • Ab titers drop rapidly from peak after vaccination • 12/8/2020 Confidential – Do Not Distribute 15 15

Summary Using human clinical trials with intense evaluation of the Correlates of Protection is in the end - true “rational vaccine design”. • For the first time, the basic science agenda in HIV vaccine development will be based on human clinical trials. • 20
