Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreements	Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreements Lonza Ltd. (“Lonza”) In October 2023, we entered into a pre-commercial services and commercial manufacturing supply agreement with Lonza (the “Lonza Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement”). Pursuant to the Lonza Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement, Lonza will (i) construct and build out a dedicated suite (the “Suite”) at Lonza’s facilities in Visp, Switzerland to manufacture certain key components (including drug substance) for our proprietary pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (“PCV”) franchise and any other products or intermediates we may choose (collectively, the “Products”) and (ii) maintain and operate the Suite (utilizing Lonza’s employees) to manufacture the Products as a service provided to us, including conducting related quality control and quality assurance operations. Lonza will be a preferred, non-exclusive, supplier of the Products to us, and we retain the right to procure the Products from one or more alternate and/or backup manufacturers of the Products (including at our own facilities). Under the Lonza Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement, prior to completion of construction and certification of the Suite for commercial operation, we will contribute to the capital expenditure costs to construct the Suite (and will own certain equipment in the Suite to be purchased or otherwise acquired by us), and will pay Lonza a fixed-rate monthly service fee for Lonza’s pre-commercial services prior to commencement of commercial operations (which monthly service fee amount is subject to increases in subsequent years). Following commencement of commercial operations of the Suite to manufacture the Products, we will pay Lonza (i) Suite fees based on allocations of certain of Lonza’s costs to maintain the facility in which the Suite is located and to provide shared services to us and Lonza’s other customers in such facility, (ii) service fees based upon Lonza’s actual full-time equivalent employee (“FTE”) costs to operate the Suite to manufacture the Products, and (iii) certain other pass-through costs, including for raw materials. In addition, we may be obligated to pay or reimburse Lonza for certain other fees and expenses under the Lonza Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement. Lonza will be eligible for certain financial bonuses, and subject to certain financial penalties, as incentives for the timely completion of certain scale-up activities, receipt of certain regulatory approvals for the Suite and manufacture of the Products in accordance with our commercial requirements. Unless earlier terminated, the Lonza Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement will remain in effect until December 31, 2038, subject to automatic renewal for up to three additional renewal periods of five years each, unless we elect not to renew (with 24 months advanced notice to Lonza). We are permitted to terminate the Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement for convenience or for Lonza’s uncured material breach, in each case subject to certain notice obligations. Lonza is permitted to terminate the Lonza Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement in the event that we commit certain specified material breaches, including uncured failure to pay material and undisputed amounts of money due to Lonza, subject to certain notice obligations. Either party may terminate the Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement in certain circumstances in the event of the other party’s bankruptcy. In the event that we terminate the agreement for convenience, or Lonza terminates the agreement in the event that we commit certain specified material breaches, then certain termination consequences may be triggered, including that (i) we would forfeit any outstanding entitlement to credit from Lonza of the Repurposing Fee (as defined below), and (ii) we would be obligated to pay Lonza a termination penalty equal to the greater of (a) CHF 70.0 million, or (b) a prespecified number of months’ FTE fees for the actual FTEs assigned to us as of the date of termination. Within 30 days of the Effective Date, we paid Lonza a repurposing fee (the “Repurposing Fee”) of CHF 27.0 million that will be credited back to us over a 10-year period starting upon commencement of commercial production. In the event of a termination under certain circumstances, Lonza shall be obligated to provide certain wind-down and transition services to us for up to 12 months and 24 months, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we have incurred $218.9 million and $171.3 million of capital expenditures related to the Vaxcyte owned facility buildout and equipment, respectively. In addition, as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, we have incurred $155.1 million and $74.7 million of facility buildout expenditures that are owned and controlled by Lonza, including the Repurposing Fee, and costs associated with certification of the Suite for commercial operation, respectively. These amounts have been accounted for as prepaid lease payments and will be recorded as a ROU asset under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842 lease accounting when control over the Suite is transferred to us, which we expect to occur upon the completion of construction and certification of the Suite for commercial operation. Thermo Fisher Scientific In September 2025, we entered into a master services agreement with Patheon Manufacturing Services LLC, part of Thermo Fisher Scientific (collectively, “Thermo Fisher”), pursuant to which Thermo Fisher will formulate, fill, inspect, package, label, test, manufacture and supply drug product for us at its facility in Greenville, North Carolina (the "Thermo Fisher Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement"). Pursuant to the Thermo Fisher Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement, we have agreed to order drug product from Thermo Fisher based on certain binding forecast periods and established prices. In addition, we will also pay Thermo Fisher for technology transfer activities and reimburse Thermo Fisher for certain out-of-pocket capital expenditures under the terms of the agreement. The Thermo Fisher Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement has an initial term of 15 years and will automatically renew for additional three-year periods unless either party provides notice of non-renewal before the end of the then existing term, subject to completion of ongoing services. We are permitted to terminate the Thermo Fisher Commercial Manufacturing and Supply Agreement prior to expiration, subject to the payment of applicable termination fees, plus certain capital expenditure commitments.
