I am delighted to reflect on a year that has been pivotal for
Immunocore, for the uveal melanoma community, and for our shareholders. KIMMTRAK (tebentafusp- tebn), our first product, is now approved in more than 30 countries for the treatment of patients with metastatic or unresectable uveal
melanoma. With revenues of $141 million in 2022, Immunocore is now a commercial- stage biotech company. This is a remarkable achievement, particularly given what has been another challenging year for the biotech sector. And we are not
stopping here. In addition to launching the world's first TCR therapy, we are demonstrating that our technology has the potential to deliver benefits for even more patients, not only in multiple tumor types but also in infectious
diseases. FIRST COMMERCIAL PRODUCT I am extremely proud of what our teams have achieved with the rapid commercial rollout of KIMMTRAK, including the transition of patients from our Early Access Program. Smooth commercial delivery is never
easy, especially for a company of our size, but we achieved great uptake in academic and community treatment centers, particularly in the United States, Germany and France. We believe that this therapy can deliver benefits for even more
patients in the melanoma community and are investigating its potential in a randomized Phase 2/3 clinical trial for patients with previously treated advanced melanoma. KIMMTRAK is the first product developed using Immunocore's
off-the-shelf ImmTAX (Immune mobilising monoclonal T-cell receptors Against X Disease) platform. We are applying what we have learned in bringing this first therapy from bench to bedside, to the development of our next clinical-stage
bispecific TCR therapy candidates in oncology and infectious diseases. OUR PRAME FRANCHISE At the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) meeting in September 2022, we presented promising Phase 1 clinical data with IMC-F106C
demonstrating that the therapy is well tolerated and resulted in durable responses across multiple solid tumor types. We are rapidly expanding our clinical trial footprint to enroll patients into four monotherapy expansion arms of the Phase

clinical trial, as well as in combination with various standards
of care, including checkpoint inhibitors, chemotherapy and our own KIMMTRAK. In our further commitment to patients, we are expanding the PRAME franchise with the development of two new candidates, for which we intend to file INDs in
2024. POTENTIAL FOR FUNCTIONAL CURE We continue to make steady progress in the development of our infectious disease clinical programs. Our goal is to provide a functional cure so patients no longer have to be on lifelong treatment.
Last year, we presented data from the initial three patients in the first-in-human clinical trial of IMC-I109V for chronic hepatitis B and are enrolling more patients at higher doses in the Phase 1 program. In February 2023, we
presented data from the single ascending dose portion of our Phase 1 clinical trial with our HIV product candidate. That data showed expected markers of T cell activation in half of the participants treated with one dose of 15mcg, and
plasma viral load remaining suppressed through dosing and follow-up. We are enrolling participants in the multiple ascending dose portion of the trial to identify safety and anti-viral activity. NEW TARGETS AND NEW THERAPIES When I
joined Immunocore in January 2019, I was drawn to the science and what it could offer to patients with unmet medical needs. Every day since then, I have been inspired by the work of our research teams, as they continue their pioneering
work to expand the potential of our ImmTAX platform across multiple diseases. Our teams are continuing to mine our proprietary database to identify further targets. In January 2023, we announced plans to file an IND in the fourth
quarter of 2023 for our first- in-class target called PIWIL1, which is expressed in colorectal cancer and other gastrointestinal cancers. WRITING A NEW CHAPTER With the launch of KIMMTRAK - a new therapeutic modality - we have written
a new chapter in the history of cancer treatment, and we continue working with a sense of urgency to deliver the potential of our science to more patients. We are in a solid financial position and are committed to executing against our
plans, while maintaining a strong focus on cash and cost discipline. We are unwavering in our mission to radically improve outcomes for patients with cancer, infectious diseases, and autoimmune conditions by pioneering and delivering
transformative medicines. I want to express my deepest gratitude to every employee at Immunocore, our Board, our partners, my fellow shareholders, and even more importantly to all those who have helped us write this new chapter by
conducting and participating in our clinical trials. With warm regards, Bahija Jallal, PhD Chief Executive Officer
