Alexandria's venture activity provides us with, among other things, mission-critical data and knowledge on innovations and trends.
• In September 2020, Alexandria won the Commercial Brokers Association ("CBA") Boston Landlord of the Year award. The CBA was established as a freestanding division of the Greater Boston Real Estate Board in 2001 and represents over 400 members in the commercial brokerage community throughout Massachusetts.

Pioneering social responsibility initiatives to continue to drive unique, disruptive, and highly impactful solutions to tackle some of society's most complex and pressing challenges

Alexandria is profoundly committed to driving forward significant collaborative and innovative solutions to address some of today's most urgent and widespread societal challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the opioid crisis, poverty, and disparities in educational opportunities. We align every aspect of our multifaceted business model and visionary social responsibility efforts to support our mission to advance human health, as well as to drive tangible and positive results in our local communities.

At the vanguard and heart of the life science ecosystem that is crucial to advancing innovative solutions for COVID-19

• Alexandria has enabled notable life science tenants to continue their essential on-site operations as part of the industry's collective efforts to improve the quality, capacity, and turnaround time for COVID-19 testing. In addition, we have leveraged our network of experts to focus on the health, safety, and well-being of our tenants and their employees by increasing and improving their access to COVID-19 testing in critical locations, such as New York City and Cambridge.
• Alexandria has pioneered and implemented robust, cutting-edge initiatives for safer buildings, which have been reviewed and validated by our COVID-19 Advisory Board, along with building optimization measures and operational protocols that encompass a variety of research-backed initiatives, including informational health and safety graphics, disinfectant cleaning guidelines, improved air filtration, effective health security communications, and the implementation of building-specific guidelines and policies that call for active cooperation of building occupants and service providers.
• As a testament to our comprehensive and industry-leading COVID–19 prevention guidelines and practices, which expand upon our existing rigorous health and safety standards, we were recognized by the Center for Active Design, the operator of Fitwel, as the first-ever company to achieve a Fitwel Viral Response Certification with Distinction, the highest designation within the new Viral Response Module developed by the world's leading healthy building certification system.
• Alexandria has sourced over 54,000 pieces of personal protective equipment worldwide and donated these mission-critical supplies to protect and support healthcare workers in some of the nation's hardest-hit cities, including New York City, Boston, Seattle, Los Angeles, and San Diego.
• Alexandria has donated more than $1 million to several highly impactful national and regional organizations supporting communities severely affected by the pandemic, including ROAR (Relief Opportunities for All Restaurants), which makes financial relief available to New York City's nearly 1 million restaurant workers, and Robin Hood, New York City's largest poverty-fighting organization, of which our executive chairman and founder, Joel S. Marcus, has served on the board of directors since 2016.

Pioneering a fully integrated ecosystem to reverse the trajectory of the opioid epidemic and support addiction recovery

• Determined to reverse the trajectory of the U.S. opioid crisis, which is one of the most pervasive public health challenges in our nation's history, Alexandria, in partnership with Verily Life Sciences, envisioned an innovative, non-profit healthcare ecosystem dedicated to the full and sustained recovery of people living with addiction. To realize this vision, Alexandria and Verily Life Sciences pioneered a fully integrated campus to house an evidence-based comprehensive treatment model encompassing a full continuum of care with dedicated facilities and services for treatment, residential housing, group therapy, family reunification, workforce development programs, job placement, and community transition.
• As the strategic real estate partner in this mission-critical initiative, Alexandria catalyzed the vision for and led the design and development of the 4.3-acre, 59,000 RSF campus in Dayton, Ohio, aimed at revolutionizing the way addiction is treated. Since the opening of the Outpatient Clinic in the fall of 2019 and the Crisis Stabilization Unit in the winter of 2020, OneFifteen has served more than 1,500 patients and carried out more than 2,000 virtual visits. In September 2020, Alexandria delivered OneFifteen Living, a three-story residential housing facility that serves as a safe place for patients to live as they access on-campus treatment services.
• As overdose deaths rise dramatically against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, Alexandria is committed to addressing this public health crisis and developing effective, scalable solutions. It is our hope that OneFifteen's groundbreaking, evidence-based, comprehensive treatment strategy will drive superior health outcomes and serve as a model of recovery for the rest of the country to replicate.

Empowering students through educational opportunities that build foundations and pave paths for long-term success

• Alexandria is deeply committed to driving educational opportunities and providing the support and resources needed to build the foundations for underprivileged students to succeed and become engaged and leading members of society. Understanding that education is one of the most fundamental foundations for a safe, healthy, and good life and essential for opportunity and economic mobility, we have forged deep partnerships in our communities with highly impactful organizations that provide holistic educational resources to underserved populations.
• In Durham, North Carolina, we work closely with the Emily Krzyzewski Center, a non-profit organization that paves a path to success in higher education for academically focused, low-income K–12 students. Through programs that build and accelerate students' scholastic skills, the center has supported exceptional achievement throughout the students' years in high school and higher education and in their careers. Students receive holistic support that encompasses academic skills development, personal management and leadership training, college planning, and career exploration. Of those who complete Emily K's Scholars to College program, 100% are accepted to college each year.
• Through our long-term, hands-on partnership with CS4ALL (Computer Science for All), we are helping to ensure that all of New York City's 1.1 million public school students, 72.8% of whom are considered low income, have access to high-quality computer science coursework throughout their K–12 education. We believe that STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) education is important for preparing students for academic success, the 21st-century job market, and beyond.
• In August 2020, we pledged to donate $1.5 million to the San Carlos School District and the San Carlos Education Foundation, extending our strong commitment to enhancing neighborhoods where we develop and operate. The generous donation fills the school district's funding gap resulting from the economic impact of COVID-19 and, importantly, will enable San Carlos public schools to continue to offer quality education to its students.
• In August 2020, we made a pledge to the South San Francisco Unified School District through the California Life Sciences Institute and California Life Sciences Association's joint South San Francisco Empowerment Initiative, which aims to build science competency while closing the digital gap. Through this contribution, we provided iPads, Chromebooks, and MacBook Airs to help K–12 students and teachers in South San Francisco stay connected in a digital learning environment.

Alexandria Fighting COVID-19 on Multiple Fronts
September 30, 2020

Alexandria and its innovative tenants are at the vanguard and heart of the life science ecosystem advancing solutions for COVID-19

Safe and effective vaccines and therapies, in addition to widespread testing, continue to be critically needed to combat the global COVID-19 pandemic. By maintaining essential continuous operations across our campuses, Alexandria has enabled several of our life science tenants to pursue mission-critical COVID-19-related research and development. The heroic work being done by so many of our tenants and campus community members to help test for, treat, and prevent COVID-19, as well as provide medical supplies and protective equipment to neighboring hospitals, is profound and inspiring. We are currently tracking nearly 100 tenants across our cluster markets that are advancing solutions for COVID-19.

Developing preventative vaccines

A prophylactic vaccine should help bring about the effective end of the global COVID-19 pandemic. As such, researchers around the world are working tirelessly on over 135 COVID-19 vaccine programs, with at least 48 vaccine candidates in human trials.

In an effort to expedite the development, manufacturing, and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, the U.S. government has called for unprecedented public-private collaboration, allocating several billions of dollars through various initiatives, including Operation Warp Speed. Leveraging their vaccine development expertise and innovative technology platforms, our tenants AstraZeneca plc, Moderna, Inc., and Pfizer Inc. have the most advanced vaccine programs in late-stage clinical development, each of which has been further supported by government funding. Each company expects to announce critical data in the fourth quarter of 2020 which could form the basis for emergency use authorization ("EUA") from the FDA by year-end 2020 or in early 2021.

Additional tenants including Emergent BioSolutions Inc., FUJIFILM Diosynth Biotechnologies, GlaxoSmithKline, Johnson & Johnson, Merck & Co., Inc., Novavax, Inc., and Sanofi have also been awarded government support for their efforts in the development, manufacturing, and/or distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. Clinical trial data and progress will continue to be reported by these companies over the coming months, with the goal of expediting the widespread delivery of a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine to the public within the next 12 months.

Advancing new and repurposed therapies

On October 22, 2020, the FDA approved Gilead Sciences, Inc.'s antiviral drug Veklury^® (remdesivir) for the treatment of COVID-19 patients requiring hospitalization. In addition, over 250 experimental therapies to treat COVID-19 are being studied in over 600 clinical trials around the world in addition to more than 150 therapeutic candidates in preclinical development. A substantial number of these programs are sponsored by our tenants and include the following notable efforts:

• Eli Lilly and Company is developing multiple potential antibody therapies for the treatment and potential prevention of COVID-19. On October 7, 2020, the company announced that it was seeking emergency use authorization from the FDA for its most advanced antibody (bamlanivimab), developed in partnership with AbCellera and the NIH, for the treatment of high-risk patients with mild to moderate COVID-19. On October 13, 2020, the NIH announced that it would pause enrollment of its Phase III study testing Lilly's antibody treatment in hospitalized patients out of "an abundance of caution" to allow an independent safety review of the trial data.
• Vir Biotechnology, Inc. ("Vir") and GlaxoSmithKline ("GSK") have entered into a strategic partnership to utilize Vir's neutralizing antibody platform to identify novel drug candidates that may be used as therapeutic or preventative COVID-19 treatments. On October 6, 2020, Vir and GSK announced that their most advanced antibody therapy for the early treatment of patients with COVID-19 has entered Phase III; they expect initial study data by year-end 2020 and complete results in the first quarter of 2021.

Several other Alexandria tenants, including AbbVie Inc., Amgen, AstraZeneca plc, Atreca Inc., Enanta Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Novartis AG, and Pfizer Inc., are similarly endeavoring to develop novel therapies and repurpose existing and investigational drugs to provide near-term treatments for moderate and severe COVID-19 patients and those at highest risk.

Improving testing quality and capacity

Abbott Laboratories, Adaptive Biotechnologies Corporation, Color, Cue Health Inc., Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, Quest Diagnostics, Quidel Corporation, Roche, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Verily Life Sciences, and others are working to improve testing quality, capacity, and turnaround time to more effectively determine who has an active COVID-19 infection, who has been exposed to the virus, and who has developed immunity against it. The increased availability of widespread COVID-19 testing is critical for curtailing the pandemic and facilitating a safer reopening of workplaces, communities, and society overall.
