How
can
I
vote?
In person.
If you are a shareholder of record,
you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting. The Company will give you a ballot when you arrive. If you are a beneficial
owner of shares held in the name of your bank, broker, or other nominee, or in “street name,” to vote in person
at the Annual Meeting you must obtain from your nominee and bring to the meeting a “legal proxy” authorizing
you to vote such shares held as of the record date. We recommend you vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the meeting.
So long as you meet the applicable requirements, you can always change your vote at the meeting. Instructions on voting
by proxy are included below.
Via the Internet.
You may vote by proxy via
the Internet by visiting
www.proxyvote.com.
You will need the 12-digit control number included on the Notice or,
if you received a paper copy of the proxy materials, the proxy card or voting instruction form you received. You may vote
via the Internet through 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 13, 2019.
Via telephone.
You may vote by proxy via telephone
by calling the toll-free number found on the proxy card or the voting instruction form. You will need the 12-digit control
number included on the proxy card or voting instruction form. You may vote via telephone through 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time,
on June 13, 2019.
By mail.
If you received printed copies of the
proxy materials, you may vote by proxy by completing the proxy card or voting instruction form and returning it in the
envelope provided.
If
I am a Regeneron employee or former employee, how do I vote shares in the Company Stock Fund in my 401(k) account?
If you participate and hold shares of common stock
in the Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan, you may provide voting instructions to Fidelity Management
Trust Company, the plan’s trustee, (1) through the Internet at
www.proxyvote.com
by 11:59 p.m., Eastern
Time, on June 11, 2019, (2) by calling 1-800-690-6903 by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 11, 2019, or (3) by
returning your completed proxy card by mail. The trustee will vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If
you do not provide timely voting instructions to the trustee, the trustee will vote your shares in the same proportion
as the shares for which the trustee receives voting instructions from other participants in the plan.

Can
I
change
my
vote
or
revoke
my
proxy?
Yes. You may change your vote or revoke your proxy at
any time before the proxy is exercised by voting again electronically through the Internet or by telephone, by mailing
a new proxy card or voting instruction form, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. If you are a record
holder, you may also revoke your proxy by filing with the Secretary of the Company, at or before the taking of the vote
at the Annual Meeting, a written notice of revocation bearing a later date than the proxy you previously submitted. Attendance
at the Annual Meeting will not have the effect of revoking a proxy unless you are a record holder and give written notice
of revocation to the Secretary of the Company before the proxy is exercised or you vote by written ballot at the Annual
Meeting. If you hold your shares through a broker, bank, or other nominee in “street name,” you will need
to contact them or follow the instructions in the voting instruction form used by the firm that holds your shares to revoke
your proxy. Only your latest dated proxy we receive at or prior to the Annual Meeting will be counted.
