**Legend Biotech Appoints Robin Meng to its Board of Directors**

Legend Biotech Corporation ("Legend Biotech") announced, effective January 20, 2026 (the "Effective Date"), its Board of Directors (the "Board") appointed Robin Meng to the Board as a Class III director, with an initial term until Legend Biotech's 2026 annual general meeting of shareholders. Mr. Meng was appointed to replace Dr. Li Zhu who resigned from the Board on the Effective Date (as described above).

Mr. Meng has significant experience in senior leadership, finance, and corporate governance in the life sciences and biotechnology sector. He is the chairman and an executive Director of GenScript, and has been employed at GenScript in various roles since 2010. Prior to joining GenScript, Mr. Meng served in finance roles at Quay Magnesium, Saint Gobain Grains, and Schering-Plough China. He holds a Bachelor of Engineering from Changsha University of Science and Technology and a Master of Finance from Queen's University in, Canada.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Meng and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Meng was appointed as a director. As disclosed above, Mr. Meng is the chairman and an executive Director of GenScript, Legend Biotech's largest shareholder. Legend Biotech is party to a number of agreements with GenScript that are related-party transactions and described in Legend Biotech's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2025. Other than Legend Biotech's agreements with GenScript, there are no related-party transactions in which Mr. Meng has an interest requiring disclosure.

**Resignation of Directors**

On January 20, 2026, Dr. Li Zhu and Yau Wai Man Philip resigned from the Board, effective as of the Effective Date.
