EXPLANATORY NOTE

Seattle Genetics, Inc. (the Company) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q/A (this Amendment) to amend the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017, as filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on August 1, 2017 (the 10-Q). This Amendment is being filed solely to re-file Exhibit 10.1
to the 10-Q (the Exhibit) and in connection therewith, to amend Part II, Item 6 of the 10-Q. Certain provisions of the Exhibit were redacted in
accordance with the Companys application for confidential treatment with the SEC. In response to SEC comments, the Exhibit, as re-filed, restores the provisions that had previously been
redacted. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, new certifications by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are filed as
exhibits to this Amendment.

No attempt has been made in this Amendment to modify or update the other disclosures presented in the 10-Q. This Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the original 10-Q (i.e., those events occurring after August 1, 2017) or modify or update those
disclosures that may be affected by subsequent events.
