 Inc. ("Harpoon") has filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") relating to a proposed underwritten initial public
offering in the United States of shares of Harpoon's common stock.

    A registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the SEC, but
has not yet become effective. These securities may not be sold, nor may offers to buy be
accepted, prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective. The registration
statement can be accessed through the SEC's EDGAR database.

    This announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer

jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to
registration or qualification under the securities laws of that state or jurisdiction.

    These securities are to be offered only by means of a prospectus. When available,
copies of the preliminary prospectus can be obtained from: Citigroup Global Markets Inc.,

relevant EU member state) and will not have been reviewed by any competent authority in

    About Harpoon Therapeutics, Inc 

    Harpoon Therapeutics is a clinical-stage immunotherapy company developing a novel
class of T cell engagers that harness the power of the body's immune system to treat
patients suffering from cancer and other diseases. T cell engagers are engineered proteins
that direct a patient's own T cells to kill target cells that express specific proteins,
or antigens, carried by the target cells. Using its proprietary Tri-specific T cell
Activating Construct(TM) ("TriTAC"), platform, Harpoon is developing a pipeline of novel T
cell engagers, or TriTACs, initially focused on the treatment of solid tumors and
hematologic malignancies. Harpoon recently announced its second technology platform,
ProTriTAC, that applies a prodrug concept to TriTAC in order to create T cell engagers
that are designed to be preferentially active in the tumor microenvironment.
