Legend Biotech USA Inc. Extends Interim Product Supply Agreement with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

In connection with the Collaboration and License Agreement dated as of December 21, 2017 among Legend Biotech USA Inc. ("Legend Biotech USA"), Legend Biotech Ireland Limited and Janssen Biotech, Inc., Legend Biotech USA and Janssen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Janssen") entered into the Interim Product Supply Agreement dated as of February 28, 2022 (the "IPSA"), pursuant to which Legend Biotech USA agreed to supply ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) to Janssen for clinical and commercial use worldwide (excluding Greater China). On October 17, 2022, Legend Biotech USA and Janssen entered into Amendment No. 2 to the IPSA to extend the term of the IPSA until November 16, 2022. On November 16, 2022, Legend Biotech USA and Janssen entered into Amendment No. 3 to the IPSA to further extend the term of the IPSA until March 31, 2023, or such alternative date determined by the joint manufacturing committee, or JMC, that has been established under the Collaboration and License Agreement. We expect that Legend Biotech USA will enter into a Product Supply Agreement with Janssen that will replace the IPSA.
