Advisors (GP) LLC (the “Adviser GP”), Julian C. Baker, Felix J. Baker, FBB2, LLC (“FBB2”), FBB3 LLC (“FBB3”) and FBB Associates (“FBB”). Except as supplemented herein, such statements, as hereto amended and supplemented, remain in full force and effect. Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable. Each capitalized term used but not defined herein has the meaning ascribed to such term in the Schedule 13D, as amended.
The Adviser GP is the sole general partner of the Adviser. Pursuant to management agreements, as amended, among the Adviser, Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. (“Life Sciences”), and 667, L.P. (“667”, and together with Life Sciences, the “Funds”), and their respective general partners, the Funds’ respective general partners relinquished to the Adviser all discretion and authority with respect to the investment and voting power of the securities held by the Funds, and thus the Adviser has complete and unlimited discretion and authority with respect to the Funds’ investments and voting power over investments.

The disclosure in Item 4 below is incorporated herein by reference.

Baker. Julian C. Baker currently serves on the Issuer’s board of directors (the “Board”) as a representative of the Funds. The policy of the Funds and the Adviser does not permit managing members of the Adviser GP or full-time employees of the Adviser to receive compensation for serving as directors of the Issuer, and the Funds are instead entitled to the pecuniary interest in the Exercised Stock Options. Julian C. Baker, as an agent in his capacity as a director of the Issuer, entered into a proceeds agreement (the “Proceeds Agreement”) with the Adviser on March 8, 2022. Pursuant to the Proceeds Agreement, Julian C. Baker agreed that, with respect to the Exercised Stock Options and the Common Stock received as a result of the exercise of the Exercised Stock Options on March 8, 2022, the Adviser will have dispositive power as well as the ability to control the timing of exercise of the Exercised Stock Options and that any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock will be remitted to the Adviser net of brokerage commissions. Other than through their control of the Adviser, Felix J. Baker and Julian C. Baker have neither voting nor dispositive power over and have no direct pecuniary interest in, the Exercised Stock Options or the Common Stock. Pursuant to the Proceeds Agreement, the Adviser funded Julian C. Baker’s exercise of the Exercised Stock Options through loans from the 667 and Life Sciences (the “Loan Agreements”). The total amount expended on acquiring the Common Stock was $441,000.
In order to effect the exercise of the Exercised Stock Options, on March 8, 2022, the Adviser entered into the Loan Agreements with 667 and Life Sciences pursuant to which 667 and Life Sciences loaned $33,543 and $407,457, respectively, totaling $441,000 to the Adviser for the purpose of acquiring the Common Stock. The loan is due March 8, 2052, or earlier if the Common Stock is sold (the “Due Date”), with interest payable through the Due Date at a rate of 2.14% annually.
The Funds hold securities of the Issuer for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons or their affiliates may purchase additional securities of the Issuer or dispose of securities in varying amounts and at varying times depending upon the Reporting Persons’ continuing assessments of pertinent factors, including the availability of shares of Common Stock or other securities for purchase at particular price levels, the business prospects of the Issuer, other business investment opportunities, economic conditions, stock market conditions, money market conditions, the attitudes and actions of the Board of Directors and management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of securities of the Issuer and other plans and requirements of the particular persons. The Reporting Persons may discuss items of mutual interest with the Issuer’s management, other members of the Board and other investors, which could include items in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 Schedule 13D.

Except as otherwise disclosed herein, at the present time, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals with respect to any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer including, without limitation, those matters described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

AGREEMENT dated as of March 8, 2022 by and between Baker Bros. Advisors LP (the “Management Company”) and Julian Baker (the “Agent”).
WHEREAS, the Agent, in his capacity as a director of Incyte Corporation (the “Company”), received non-transferable options (the “Options”) to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company common stock (the “Stock”) according to the below Schedule A;
WHEREAS, the Management Company provides management and administrative service to each of Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. and 667, L.P. (the “Funds”) in exchange for a management fee from each (the “Management Fees”);
WHEREAS, the Company is a portfolio company of the Funds;
WHEREAS, Pursuant to the Funds’ Limited Partnership Agreements and the Management Company’s policies, directors’ fees, consulting fees and other remuneration (including options, warrants or other equity securities) paid by Funds portfolio companies to an agent, officer or employee of the Management Company shall reduce (but not below $0) the Management Fees; and
WHEREAS, the Agent and the Management Company wish to memorialize their understanding with respect to the Options;
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:
1. Subject to the provisions of Section 2, the Agent agrees, as soon as practicable after receipt from the Company, to remit to the Management Company any directors’ fees, consulting fees and other remuneration that the Agent receives from the Company.
2. The Agent shall exercise the Options at the time directed by the Management Company. When the Agent exercises the Options, the Management Company shall provide the Agent with the amount of cash necessary to enable the Agent to purchase the Stock for which the Options are being exercised from the Company, in compliance with the terms of the Options.
3. Thereafter, the Agent shall hold the Stock in a brokerage account at JPMorgan which is not commingled with other personal holdings of the Agent until directed by the Management Company to sell the Stock. The Agent agrees, as soon as practicable after receiving direction from the Management Company, to sell all, or any portion, of the Stock as directed by the Management Company and to remit the gross cash proceeds (but net of brokerage commissions) from the sale of the Stock to the Management Company.
4. The Agent agrees not to amend or modify the Options, waive any of the provisions thereof, or enter into any agreement or understanding with respect to the Options or the Stock, without the prior written consent of the Management Company.
5. The Agent shall not report any income attributable to these transactions as his own income, but instead, shall report such income on any and all tax returns required to be filed by the Agent as received by him only in his capacity as an agent, officer or employee of the Management Company. The Management Company shall report all such income on any and all tax returns required to be filed by the Management Company.
6. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns. This Agreement shall survive the death, merger, dissolution or termination of any of the parties hereto and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding that the Agent shall cease to be an agent, officer or employee of the Management Company for any reason.
7. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a writing signed on behalf of the parties hereto. No provision of this Agreement may be waived except in writing signed on behalf of the party against whom such waiver is asserted.
8. From and after the date of this Agreement, the parties shall execute and deliver such instruments, documents and other writings, and take such other actions, as may be necessary to confirm and carry out and to effectuate fully the intent and purposes of the transactions on their part respectively contemplated by this Agreement.
9. If any of the benefits contemplated by this Agreement would be reduced or unachievable because of restrictions or prohibitions imposed by law (by way of example only, the Securities Act of 1933, state securities laws, or the Company’s governing instruments), the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to preserve the intent of this Agreement and the benefits contemplated hereby by amending, modifying or waiving in an appropriate manner the provisions of this Agreement.
10. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Proceeds Agreement as of the date first above written.
