      <div style="line-height: 1.25;">This press release contains &#8220;forward-looking statements&#8221; within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities
        Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are based on the current beliefs, expectations and assumptions of Compugen. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as
        &#8220;will,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;may,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;expects,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;anticipates,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;believes,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;potential,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;plan,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;goal,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;estimate,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;likely,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;should,&#8221;&#160;&#8220;confident,&#8221; and &#8220;intends,&#8221; and similar expressions that are intended to identify forward-looking statements, including the completion

        uncertainties that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Compugen to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Among these risks:
        Clinical development involves a lengthy and expensive process, with an uncertain outcome and Compugen may encounter substantial delays or even an inability to begin clinical trials for any specific product, or may not be able to conduct or complete
        its trials on the timelines it expects; Compugen relies, and expects to continue to rely, on third parties to conduct its clinical trials and if these third parties do not successfully carry out their contractual duties, comply with regulatory
        requirements or meet expected deadlines (including as a result of the effect of the Coronavirus), Compugen may experience significant delays in the conduct of its clinical trials; Compugen&#8217;s ability to present data derived from collaborations with
        its partners is dependent in some cases on the agreement of our partners to present such data, and in any event is dependent on our acceptance to present data in relevant conferences; Compugen&#8217;s approach to the discovery of therapeutic products is
        based on its proprietary computational target discovery infrastructure, which is unproven clinically; Compugen does not know whether it will be able to discover and develop additional potential product candidates or products of commercial value;
        Compugen&#8217;s business model is substantially dependent on entering into collaboration agreements with third parties; and Compugen may not be successful in generating adequate revenues or commercializing aspects of its business model. These risks and
        other risks are more fully described in the &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; section of Compugen&#8217;s most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as well as other documents that may be subsequently filed by Compugen
        from time to time with the SEC. In addition, any forward-looking statements represent Compugen&#8217;s views only as of the date of this release and should not be relied upon as representing its views as of any subsequent date. Compugen does not assume
        any obligation to update any forward-looking statements unless required by law.</div>
