Dear bluebird bio, Inc. Stockholder:In January 2021, we announced a transformative milestone for bluebird bio, Inc.—our intent to separate our oncology portfolio and programs from our severe genetic disease portfolio and programs, thereby creating two independent, publicly traded companies. The strategic objectives of the separation are to unlock value, enhance operational performance and strategic flexibility and tailor the capital structures to best serve these distinct businesses.We believe the best way to realize the full potential of this separation is for bluebird bio, Inc. and 2seventy bio, Inc. to operate independently, with distinct management teams and boards of directors dedicated to their unique business strategies. Through this separation, we have the potential to create two focused, durable businesses that are well-positioned with the resources, talent and foundation to be industry leaders in their respective fields.Going forward, bluebird bio, Inc. intends to focus primarily on its programs in severe genetic disease, including betibeglogene autotemcel (beti-cel; formerly LentiGlobin gene therapy for β-thalassemia), LentiGlobin gene therapy for sickle cell disease, and elivaldogene autotemcel (eli-cel; formerly Lenti-D gene therapy for cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy). 2seventy bio, Inc. plans to focus primarily on the discovery and development of novel engineered cell therapies for cancer, including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and T cell receptor (TCR) T cell therapies. 2seventy bio, Inc. expects to commercialize idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel; being commercialized as Abecma) in the United States and develop bb21217 through its collaboration arrangement with Bristol-Myers Squibb.Upon completion of the separation, 2seventy bio, Inc. will be spun out of bluebird bio, Inc. and established as an independent, publicly traded company. The separation is anticipated to be generally tax-free to bluebird bio, Inc. stockholders. Under the terms of the distribution, each bluebird bio, Inc. stockholder will receive one share of 2seventy bio, Inc. common stock for every three shares of bluebird bio, Inc. common stock held of record on October 19, 2021, the record date for the distribution.
