(1)  On January 21, 2018, Juno Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Celgene Corporation ("Parent"), and Blue Magpie Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("Purchaser"). On March 5, 2018, Purchaser irrevocably accepted for payment and promptly paid for, all shares of common stock validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer (as defined in the Merger Agreement). On March 6, 2018, Purchaser merged with and into the Company pursuant to Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, with the Company being the surviving corporation (the "Merger") and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
(2)  Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Offer, each share of common stock of the Company held by the Reporting Person, other than as described in note (3) below, was validly tendered for $87.00 per share in cash, without interest and subject to withholding of taxes.
