Genus plc Announces the Update in Relation to Its Innovative Prrs 1 Resistant Pig Programme Genus announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") has approved the PRP gene edit for use in the U.S. food supply chain, in line with expectations. This landmark approval follows years of close collaboration with the FDA and is a significant step on the pathway to PRP commercialisation in the U.S. Genus believes successful U.S. commercialisation also requires approvals in key U.S. export markets, being Mexico, Canada and Japan. The Group continues to make progress with regulators in these jurisdictions as well as with other international regulators, including China. Brazil, Colombia and, more recently, the Dominican Republic have already issued positive determinations for PRP, meaning those countries will regulate the PRP the same as any other pigs. PRRS is one of the most devastating global pig diseases and causes suffering and premature death for pigs. Recent research indicates that PRRS also increases the need for antibiotics by more than 200%. Duyuru • Feb 26

Colombian Government Gives Positive Determination for Genus's PRRS Virus-Resistant Pigs Genus plc announced that the government of Colombia has given a favourable regulatory determination for Genus's Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome virus ("PRRS") resistant pigs. This enables the future sale of such pigs in Colombia. PRRS is one of the most significant diseases in the pig industry, causing severe respiratory distress, increased secondary infections, pregnancy loss and increased morbidity and mortality. There are currently no effective vaccines or treatments. The creation of a PRRS resistant pig therefore represents a significant step forward in the welfare of pigs by protecting themthem from this devastating virus. It is estimated that PRRS costs the US and EU pig industry approximately $2 billion each year. Genus has used its gene editing platform to develop pigs resistant to PRRS, by deleting a very small portion of the pigs' DNA that encodes a protein that the virus uses to enter and infect the pigs' cells. With this small gene edit, the pig is resistant to PRRS, as the virus is unable to enter the cells and replicate. The Colombian government is the first to issue a determination for Genus's PRRS resistant pigs, enabling the future commercialisation of the pigs. The PRRS resistant pigs will be treated in the same way as any other pigs in Colombia. Further regulatory approvals for the PRRS resistant pig are also being sought in the United States, Canada, China, Japan, Mexico, Brazil and other countries. Genus anticipates a decision from the United States Food and Drug Administration in the first half of 2024, to be followed by a phased global launch of the pigs, subject to receiving applicable regulatory approvals. Genus will be hosting a Capital Markets Event in London on 1 November 2023 to provide additional information on its PRRS resistant pig development, registration and commercialisation programme.
