Information given in response to each item shall be deemed incorporated by reference in all other items, as applicable. | ||
| Item 3. | Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration | |
Item 3 of this Schedule 13D is supplemented and amended, as the case may be, as follows:
This Amendment No. 12 to Schedule 13D amends and supplements the previously filed Schedules 13D for BeiGene, Ltd. (the "Issuer") filed by Baker Bros. Advisors LP (the "Adviser"), Baker Bros. Advisors (GP), LLC (the "Adviser GP"), Julian C. Baker, Felix J. Baker and FBB3 LLC ("FBB3") (collectively the "Reporting Persons"). Except as supplemented herein, such statements, as heretofore amended and supplemented, remain in full force and effect.
The Adviser GP is the sole general partner of the Adviser. Pursuant to the management agreements, as amended, among the Adviser, Baker Brothers Life Sciences, L.P. ("Life Sciences") and 667, L.P. ("667", and together with Life Sciences, the "Funds"), and their respective general partners, the Funds' respective general partners relinquished to the Adviser all discretion and authority with respect to the investment and voting power over securities held by the Funds, and thus the Adviser has complete and unlimited discretion and authority with respect to the Funds' investments and voting power over investments. The disclosure in Item 4 below is incorporated herein by reference.
The Reporting Persons may in the ordinary course of business hold securities in margin accounts maintained for the Funds with prime brokers, which extend margin credit as and when required, subject to applicable margin regulations, stock exchange rules and such firms' credit policies. Positions in securities may be pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in such accounts. | ||
| Item 4. | Purpose of Transaction | |
On April 16, 2026, the Issuer filed a Preliminary Proxy Statement disclosing that Felix J.

If elected, Dr. Baker will serve as the Lead Director of the Issuer. Michael Goller, a director of the Issuer, and Ranjeev Krishana, a director of the Issuer and the Issuer's current Lead Director, both of whom are employees of the Adviser, are not standing for re-election to the Board and it is anticipated that their service on the Board will automatically expire on June 11, 2026, the date of the Issuer's 2026 annual general meeting of shareholders.
The Funds hold securities of the Issuer for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons or their affiliates may purchase additional securities or dispose of securities in varying amounts and at varying times depending upon the Reporting Persons' continuing assessments of pertinent factors, including the availability of ADS or Ordinary Shares or other securities for purchase at particular price levels, the business prospects of the Issuer, other business investment opportunities, economic conditions, stock market conditions, money market conditions, the attitudes and actions of the Board and management of the Issuer, the availability and nature of opportunities to dispose of securities of the Issuer and other plans and requirements of the particular entities. The Reporting Persons may discuss items of mutual interest with the Issuer's management and other investors, which could include items in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.
Depending upon their assessments of the above factors, the Reporting Persons or their affiliates may change their present intentions as stated above and they may assess whether to make suggestions to the management of the Issuer regarding financing, and whether to acquire additional securities of the Issuer, including ADS or Ordinary Shares (by means of open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, exercise of some or all of the options to purchase Ordinary Shares ("Share Options"), vesting of restricted share units (each an "RSU") or otherwise) or to dispose of some or all of the securities of the Issuer, including ADS or Ordinary Shares, under their control.
Except as otherwise disclosed herein, at the present time, the Reporting Persons do not have any plans or proposals with respect to any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer including, without limitation, those matters described in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. | ||
