We have entered into a sales agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Leerink Partners LLC (“Leerink Partners”) dated February 22, 2024, relating to shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, offered by this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. In accordance with the terms of the Sales Agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million from time to time through Leerink Partners, acting as our agent.
Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “INSM”. The last reported sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on February 21, 2024 was $28.24 per share.
Sales of our common stock, if any, under this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus will be made in sales deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Leerink Partners is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of shares of our common stock, but will act as our sales agent using commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, or mutually agreed terms between Leerink Partners and us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in any escrow, trust or similar arrangement.
The compensation payable to Leerink Partners for sales of common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement will be an amount equal to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of any shares of common stock sold under the Sales Agreement. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page S-13 for additional information regarding the compensation to be paid to Leerink Partners. In connection with the sale of the common stock on our behalf, Leerink Partners will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation paid to Leerink Partners will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed in the Sales Agreement to provide indemnification and contribution to Leerink Partners with respect to certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described under the heading “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-8 of this prospectus supplement and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT SUMMARY
This summary highlights selected information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should carefully review this entire prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the risk factors and financial statements and related notes thereto included or incorporated by reference herein and therein, before making a decision to purchase our common stock.
Overview
We are a global biopharmaceutical company on a mission to transform the lives of patients with serious and rare diseases. Our first commercial product, ARIKAYCE, is approved in the US as ARIKAYCE® (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion and in Japan as ARIKAYCE inhalation 590mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). ARIKAYCE received accelerated approval in the US in September 2018 for the treatment of MAC lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options in a refractory setting. In October 2020, the European Commission approved ARIKAYCE for the treatment of nontuberculous mycobacterial (“NTM”) lung infections caused by MAC in adults with limited treatment options who do not have cystic fibrosis. In March 2021, Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved ARIKAYCE for the treatment of patients with NTM lung disease caused by MAC who did not sufficiently respond to prior treatment with a multidrug regimen. NTM lung disease caused by MAC (which we refer to as MAC lung disease) is a rare and often chronic infection that can cause irreversible lung damage and can be fatal.
Our pipeline includes clinical-stage programs, brensocatib and TPIP, as well as other early-stage research programs. Brensocatib is a small molecule, oral, reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1, which we are developing for the treatment of patients with bronchiectasis and other neutrophil-mediated diseases, including chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps. TPIP is an inhaled formulation of the treprostinil prodrug treprostinil palmitil which may offer a differentiated product profile for pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Our early-stage research programs encompass a wide range of technologies and modalities, including gene therapy, artificial intelligence-driven protein engineering, protein manufacturing, RNA-end joining, and synthetic rescue.
Corporate Information
We were incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia on November 29, 1999. On December 1, 2010, we completed a business combination with Transave, Inc., a privately held New Jersey-based company focused on the development of differentiated and innovative inhaled pharmaceuticals for the site-specific treatment of serious lung diseases. Our principal executive offices are located at 700 US Highway 202/206, Bridgewater, NJ 08807, and our telephone number is (908) 977-9900. Our website address is www.insmed.com. The information on our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus and should not be considered to be part of either document.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves significant risks. Before making an investment in our common stock, you should carefully read all of the information contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein. For a discussion of risks that you should carefully consider before deciding to purchase any of our common stock, please review the risk factors disclosed below, together with the other information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, and the information and documents incorporated by reference herein and therein, including the risk factors set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, or Current Reports on Form 8-K we file after the date of this prospectus supplement, and all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act. Any of these risks, as well as additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial, may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, resulting in a decline in the trading price of our common stock and loss of all or part of your investment.
Our management will have broad discretion over the actual amount and timing of the expenditures of the proceeds we receive in this offering and might not apply these proceeds in ways that enhance our financial condition or operating results or increase the value of your investment.
We intend to use the net proceeds we receive from this offering to fund activities related to the commercialization and development of ARIKAYCE, continued research and development of brensocatib as well as pre-commercial and, if approved, commercialization activities related to brensocatib, further research and development of TPIP and any of our other research product candidates, and for other general corporate purposes, including business expansion activities. This expected use of our net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions. The amount and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, the most significant of which are expenses related to our commercialization efforts for ARIKAYCE and brensocatib, if approved, expenses related to future ARIKAYCE, brensocatib and TPIP clinical trials, as well as any strategic transactions that we may enter into with third parties, and any unforeseen cash needs. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds we receive from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not necessarily improve our financial condition or operating results or enhance the value of our common stock and your investment therein. Additionally, until the net proceeds we receive are used, they may be placed in investments that do not produce income or that lose value. See “Use of Proceeds” for additional information.
It is not possible to predict the aggregate proceeds resulting from sales made under the Sales Agreement.
Subject to certain limitations in the Sales Agreement and compliance with applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver a placement notice to Leerink Partners at any time throughout the term of the Sales Agreement. The number of shares that are sold through Leerink Partners after delivering a placement notice will fluctuate based on a number of factors, including the market price of our common stock during the sales period, any limits we may set with Leerink Partners in any applicable placement notice and the demand for our common stock. Because the price per share of each share sold pursuant to the Sales Agreement will fluctuate over time, it is not currently possible to predict the aggregate proceeds to be raised in connection with sales under the Sales Agreement.
The common stock offered hereby will be sold in “at the market offerings” and investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.
Investors who purchase shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and accordingly may experience different levels of dilution and different outcomes in their investment results. We will have discretion, subject to market demand, to vary the timing, prices and number of shares sold in this offering. Investors may experience a decline in the value of the shares they purchase in this offering as a result of sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If you purchase our common stock in this offering, you may incur immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your shares.
The offering price per share of common stock in this offering will exceed the net tangible book deficit per share of our common stock outstanding prior to this offering. Therefore, if you purchase common stock in this offering, you will pay a price per share that exceeds our as adjusted net tangible book deficit per share of common stock. Assuming that an aggregate of 17,705,382 shares of our common stock are sold at an assumed offering price of $28.24 per share, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on February 21, 2024, for aggregate gross proceeds of $500.0 million, and after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, you would experience immediate dilution of $28.52 per share, representing the difference between our as adjusted net tangible book deficit per share as of December 31, 2023, after giving effect to this offering, and the assumed offering price. Further dilution of your investment will result from, among other things, future equity issuances by us, the future exercise of stock options, vesting of RSUs and PSUs, conversion of some or all of our 2025 Notes and our 2028 Notes, to the extent we deliver shares upon conversion, and issuance of shares in connection with our acquisitions. See “Dilution” for a more detailed description of the dilution investors purchasing shares of our common stock in the offering will incur. Because the sales of the shares offered hereby will be made directly into the market, the prices at which we sell these shares will vary and these variations may be significant. Purchasers of the shares we sell, as well as our existing stockholders, will experience significant dilution if we sell shares at prices significantly below the price at which they invested.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

USE OF PROCEEDS
We may issue and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $500.0 million from time to time. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions to Leerink Partners and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. There can be no assurance that we will sell any shares under the Sales Agreement as a source of financing.
We currently plan to use the net proceeds we receive from this offering to fund activities related to the commercialization and development of ARIKAYCE, continued research and development of brensocatib as well as pre-commercial and, if approved, commercialization activities related to brensocatib, further research and development of TPIP and any of our other research product candidates, and for other general corporate purposes, including business expansion activities.
This expected use of our net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions. The amount and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, the most significant of which are expenses related to our commercialization efforts for ARIKAYCE and brensocatib, if approved, expenses related to future ARIKAYCE, brensocatib and TPIP clinical trials, as well as any strategic transactions that we may enter into with third parties, and any unforeseen cash needs. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds we receive from this offering. We have no current understandings, agreements or commitments for any material acquisitions or licenses of any compounds, product candidates, technology or businesses.
Pending our use of the net proceeds we receive from this offering, we intend to invest such net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DILUTION
If you invest in our common stock in this offering, your ownership interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the price per share you pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately after this offering.
Our historical net tangible book deficit as of December 31, 2023 was $(531.7) million, or $(3.59) per share of our common stock, based upon 147,977,960 shares outstanding on December 31, 2023. Net tangible book value (deficit) per share is equal to our total tangible assets, less our total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares outstanding as of December 31, 2023. After giving effect to the assumed sale by us of an aggregate of 17,705,382 shares of our common stock at an assumed offering price of $28.24 per share, the last reported sale price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on February 21, 2024, for aggregate gross proceeds of $500.0 million, and after deducting commissions and offering expenses payable by us, our as-adjusted net tangible book deficit would have been $(47.1) million, or $(0.28) per share of common stock. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $3.31 per share to our existing shareholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $28.52 per share to investors purchasing shares of our common stock at the assumed offering price of $28.24 per share in this offering. The following table illustrates this calculation on a per share basis:
Assumed offering price per share
 
$28.24
Net tangible book deficit per share as of December 31, 2023
$(3.59)
 
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering
$3.31
 
As-adjusted net tangible book deficit per share after this offering
 
$(0.28)
Dilution per share to investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering
 
$28.52
The foregoing table and calculations are based on upon 147,977,760 shares of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2023, and exclude:
22,512,569 shares of our common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2023 at a weighted average exercise price of $21.58 per share;
2,750,294 shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to unvested RSUs outstanding as of December 31, 2023 at a weighted average grant price of $20.50;
666,382 shares of our common stock issuable pursuant to unvested PSUs outstanding as of December 31, 2023 at a weighted average grant price of $39.12;
7,180,171 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under our Amended and Restated 2019 Incentive Plan, plus any shares subject to outstanding awards as of December 31, 2023 under our 2017 Incentive Plan, 2015 Incentive Plan and 2013 Incentive Plan that subsequently are cancelled, terminated unearned, expired, forfeited, lapsed for any reason or are settled in cash without the delivery of shares;
4,743,475 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan;
5,746,140 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of the 2025 Notes;
17,692,290 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of the 2028 Notes; and
6,180,147 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance as acquisition consideration in connection with our acquisitions of Motus Biosciences, Inc., AlgaeneX, Inc. and Vertuis Bio, Inc.
An increase of $1.00 per share in the price at which the shares are sold from the assumed offering price of $28.24 per share shown in the table above, assuming all of our common stock in the aggregate amount of $500.0 million during the term of the Sales Agreement with Leerink Partners is sold at that price, would increase our as adjusted net tangible book deficit per share to $(0.29) per share and would increase the dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering to $29.53 per share, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. A decrease of $1.00 per share in the price at which the shares are sold from the assumed offering price of $28.24 per share shown in the table above, assuming all of our common stock in the aggregate amount of $500.0 million during the term of the Sales Agreement with Leerink Partners is
S-11

TABLE OF CONTENTS

sold at that price, would decrease our as adjusted net tangible book deficit per share to $(0.28) per share and would decrease the dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering to $27.52 per share, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.
The information discussed above is illustrative only and the shares subject to our Sales Agreement with Leerink Partners are being sold from time to time at various prices. Investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering will experience further dilution upon, among other things, the future exercise of stock options, vesting of RSUs and PSUs, conversion of some or all of our 2025 Notes and 2028 Notes to the extent we deliver shares upon conversion of the notes, and issuance of shares in connection with our acquisitions. Furthermore, we may choose to raise additional capital through the sale of additional securities due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds on hand for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that we raise additional capital in this manner, the issuance of such securities would likely result in further dilution to investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We have entered into the Sales Agreement with Leerink Partners under which we may issue and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $500,000,000 from time to time through Leerink Partners acting as agent (the “Agent”).
Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, the Agent may sell our common stock by any method permitted by law deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act, including sales made directly on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, on any other existing trading market for our common stock, or to or through a market maker. We may instruct the Agent not to sell common stock if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us from time to time. We or the Agent may suspend the offering of common stock upon notice and subject to other conditions.
We will pay the Agent commissions, in cash, for its services in acting as agent in the sale of our common stock. The Agent will be entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. We have also agreed to reimburse the Agent for certain specified expenses, including the fees and disbursements of their legal counsel, in an amount not to exceed $50,000, as well as certain ongoing fees of their legal counsel. We estimate that the total expenses for the offering, excluding discounts and commissions payable to the Agent under the terms of the Sales Agreement, will be approximately $380,000.
The Agent will provide written confirmation to us no later than the opening of the trading day on the Nasdaq Global Select Market after each trading day on which common stock is sold through it as sales agent under the Sales Agreement. Each confirmation will include the number or amount of shares sold through it as sales agent on that day, the volume-weighted average price of the shares sold and the net proceeds to us from such sales.
Settlement for sales of common stock will occur on the second trading day following the date on which any sales are made, or on some other date that is agreed upon by us and the Agent in connection with a particular transaction, in return for payment of the net proceeds to us. Sales of our common stock as contemplated in this prospectus supplement will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as we and the Agent may agree upon. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement.
The Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with its sales and trading practices, to solicit offers to purchase the common stock under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Sales Agreement. In connection with the sale of the common stock on our behalf, the Agent will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of the Agent will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to the Agent against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
The offering of our common stock pursuant to the Sales Agreement will terminate upon the termination of the Sales Agreement as permitted therein. We and the Agent (with respect to itself) may terminate the Sales Agreement at any time upon ten days’ prior notice.
The Agent and/or its respective affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates, for which services they may in the future receive customary fees. To the extent required by Regulation M, the Agent will not engage in any market making activities involving our common stock while the offering is ongoing under this prospectus supplement.
This prospectus supplement in electronic format may be made available on a website maintained by the Agent and the Agent may distribute this prospectus supplement electronically.

This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we filed with the SEC, utilizing a “shelf” registration process as a “well-known seasoned issuer,” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”). Under this shelf registration process, we and any selling securityholders may offer and sell from time to time in one or more offerings the securities described in this prospectus.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

INSMED INCORPORATED
We are a global biopharmaceutical company on a mission to transform the lives of patients with serious and rare diseases. We were incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia on November 29, 1999. On December 1, 2010, we completed a business combination with Transave, Inc., a privately held New Jersey based company focused on the development of differentiated and innovative inhaled pharmaceuticals for the site specific treatment of serious lung diseases.
Our first commercial product, ARIKAYCE, is approved in the United States (the “U.S.”) as ARIKAYCE® (amikacin liposome inhalation suspension), in Europe as ARIKAYCE Liposomal 590 mg Nebuliser Dispersion and in Japan as ARIKAYCE inhalation 590mg (amikacin sulfate inhalation drug product). ARIKAYCE received accelerated approval in the U.S. in September 2018 for the treatment of Mycobacterium avium complex (“MAC”) lung disease as part of a combination antibacterial drug regimen for adult patients with limited or no alternative treatment options in a refractory setting. In October 2020, the European Commission approved ARIKAYCE for the treatment of nontuberculous mycobacterial (“NTM”) lung infections caused by MAC in adults with limited treatment options who do not have cystic fibrosis (“CF”). In March 2021, Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare approved ARIKAYCE for the treatment of patients with NTM lung disease caused by MAC who did not sufficiently respond to prior treatment with a multidrug regimen.
Our clinical-stage pipeline includes brensocatib, treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (“TPIP”) and early-stage research programs. Brensocatib is a small molecule, oral, reversible inhibitor of dipeptidyl peptidase 1, which we are developing for the treatment of patients with bronchiectasis, CF and other neutrophil-mediated diseases, including chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps. TPIP is an inhaled formulation of the treprostinil prodrug trespostinil palmitil which may offer a differentiated product profile for pulmonary hypertension associated with interstitial lung disease and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Our early-stage research programs encompass a wide range of technologies and modalities, including artificial intelligence-driven protein engineering, gene therapy, and protein manufacturing.
Our principal executive offices are located at 700 US Highway 202/206, Bridgewater, NJ 08807, and our telephone number is (908) 977-9900. Our Internet address is www.insmed.com.

failure to obtain regulatory approval to expand ARIKAYCE’s indication to a broader patient population;
risk that brensocatib or TPIP does not prove to be effective or safe for patients in ongoing and future clinical studies, including, for brensocatib, the ASPEN study;
risk that our competitors may obtain orphan drug exclusivity for a product that is essentially the same as a product we are developing for a particular indication;
failure to successfully predict the time and cost of development, regulatory approval and commercialization for novel gene therapy products;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK
The following is a summary of the material terms of our common stock, which is based upon, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Articles of Incorporation, as amended (the “Articles of Incorporation”), our Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) and applicable provisions of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (“VSCA”). This summary may not contain all the information that is important to you; you can obtain additional information regarding our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws by referring to such documents, copies of which are included as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
General
Under our Articles of Incorporation, we have authority to issue 500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of March 14, 2023, there were 136,428,466 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. All shares of common stock will, when issued pursuant to this prospectus, be duly authorized, fully paid and nonassessable.
Dividend Rights
Subject to the rights of the holders of any of our preferred stock then outstanding, the holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors out of legally available funds. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not declared or paid any dividends on our shares of common stock, and there were no shares of preferred stock outstanding, although our board of directors is authorized to issue preferred stock with rights senior to those of the common stock without any further vote or action by the holders of our common stock.
Rights Upon Liquidation
In the event we are liquidated, dissolved or our affairs are wound up, after we pay or make adequate provision for all of our known debts and liabilities, each holder of common stock will receive distributions pro rata out of assets that we can legally use to pay distributions, subject to the rights of the holders of any of our preferred stock then outstanding.
Voting Rights
Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share and will have the exclusive power to vote on all matters presented to our shareholders, including the election of directors, except as otherwise provided by the VSCA and subject to the rights of the holders of any of our preferred stock then outstanding. An election of directors by our shareholders will be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the shareholders entitled to vote on the election, although we have a director resignation policy applicable to director nominees in uncontested elections. Our Articles of Incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting. In accordance with our Articles of Incorporation, our board is divided into three classes serving staggered three-year terms, with one class being elected each year at our annual meeting of shareholders.
Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the VSCA, matters other than the election of directors generally will be approved if the votes cast by our shareholders favoring the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action. Subject to the rights of the holders of any of our preferred stock then outstanding, however, the affirmative vote of at least 75% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single group, will be required to take the following actions:
remove a director, which may only be done for cause; and
alter, amend, repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, the provisions of (1) our Articles of Incorporation that provide for a classified board, director removal only for cause, filling of newly created or vacant directorships, or bylaw amendments or (2) our Bylaws.
Other Rights
Holders of our common stock will have no preference, appraisal or exchange rights, except for any appraisal rights provided by the VSCA. Furthermore, holders of our common stock have no conversion, sinking fund or redemption rights, or preemptive rights to subscribe for any of our securities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Potential Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Virginia Law and Our Organizational Documents
Certain provisions of the VSCA, our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws could hamper a third-party’s acquisition of, or discourage a third-party from attempting to acquire control of, us or limit the price that investors might be willing to pay for shares of our common stock. These provisions or arrangements include:
The ability to issue preferred stock with rights senior to those of our common stock without any further vote or action by the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of our common stock or could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of the holders of our common stock. In certain circumstances, such issuance could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.
The existence of a staggered board of directors in which there are three classes of directors serving staggered three-year terms, thus expanding the time required to change the composition of a majority of directors.
The requirement that shareholders provide advance notice when nominating director candidates to serve on our board of directors.
The inability of shareholders to convene a shareholders’ meeting without the chair of the board, the president or a majority of the board of directors first calling the meeting.
The prohibition against entering into a business combination with the beneficial owner of 10% or more of our outstanding voting stock for a period of three years after the 10% or greater owner first reached that level of stock ownership, unless certain criteria are met.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, LLC. Its address is 1717 Arch Street, Suite 1300, Philadelphia, PA 19103.
Listing
Our common stock is listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “INSM.”

DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES
We may issue, separately or together with, or upon conversion, exercise or exchange of other securities, debt securities, including debentures, notes, bonds and other evidences of indebtedness as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The debt securities will be our direct obligations, either secured or unsecured, and may include convertible debt securities. The debt securities may be our senior, senior subordinated or subordinated obligations. The debt securities will be issued under an indenture between us and Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association), as trustee, which we may amend or supplement from time to time. This prospectus, together with the applicable prospectus supplement, will describe the terms of a particular series of debt securities that we may offer from time to time. The indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”).
The following summary of the material provisions of the indenture and the debt securities does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the indenture and certificate evidencing the applicable debt securities. Therefore, you should carefully consider the indenture that is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement that includes this prospectus. Other specific terms of the indenture and debt securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. If any particular terms of the indenture or debt securities described in a prospectus supplement differ from any of the terms described below, then the terms described below will be deemed to have been superseded by that prospectus supplement. In this description of the debt securities, the words “we,” “us” or “our” refer only to Insmed Incorporated and not to our subsidiaries, unless we otherwise expressly state or the context otherwise requires.
General
Debt securities may be issued in one or more series without limitation as to aggregate principal amount. We may specify a maximum aggregate principal amount for the debt securities of any series. We are not limited as to the amount of debt securities that we may issue under the indenture. The terms of each series of debt securities will be established by or pursuant to a resolution of our board of directors and set forth or determined in the manner provided in a resolution of our board of directors, in an officer’s certificate or by a supplemental indenture. The prospectus supplement relating to a particular series of debt securities will set forth the material terms of the debt securities being offered, including:
the title of the debt securities;
the offering price;
the principal amount being offered, and if a series, the total amount authorized and the total amount outstanding;
any limit on the aggregate principal amount that may be issued;

if applicable, any terms of any security provided for the debt securities, including any provisions regarding the circumstances under which collateral may be released or substituted;
if applicable, the terms of any guaranties for the debt securities and any circumstances under which there may be additional obligors on the debt securities; and
any other terms of such debt securities.
If we denominate the purchase price of any of the debt securities in a foreign currency or currencies, or if the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any series of debt securities is payable in a foreign currency or currencies, we will include in the applicable prospectus supplement information on the restrictions, elections, material federal income tax considerations, specific terms and other information with respect to that issue of debt securities and the foreign currency or currencies.
Unless otherwise specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will be registered debt securities. Debt securities may be sold at a substantial discount below their stated principal amount, bearing no interest or interest at a rate which at the time of issuance is below market rates. The U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to debt securities sold at a discount will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
Exchange and Transfer
Debt securities may be transferred or exchanged at the office of the security registrar or at the office of any transfer agent designated by us for this purpose.
We will not impose a service charge for any transfer or exchange, but we may require holders to pay any tax or other governmental charges associated with any transfer or exchange.
In the event of any partial redemption of debt securities of any series, we will not be required to:
issue, register the transfer of or exchange any debt security of that series during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of sending a notice of redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of sending such notice; or
register the transfer of or exchange any debt security of that series selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion being redeemed in part.
Initially, we will appoint the trustee as the security registrar. Any transfer agent, in addition to the security registrar initially designated by us, will be named in the applicable prospectus supplement. We may designate additional transfer agents or change transfer agents or change the office of the transfer agent. However, we will be required to maintain a transfer agent in each place of payment for the debt securities of each series.
Global Securities
The debt securities of any series may be represented, in whole or in part, by one or more global securities. Each global security will:
be registered in the name of a depositary, or its nominee, that we will identify in a prospectus supplement;
be delivered to the depositary or nominee or custodian;
bear any required legends; and
constitute a single debt security.
No global security may be exchanged in whole or in part for debt securities registered in the name of any person other than the depositary or any nominee unless:
the depositary has notified us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary or has ceased to be qualified to act as depositary;
an event of default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the debt securities of the applicable series; or
any other circumstance described in the applicable prospectus supplement has occurred permitting or requiring the issuance of any such security.
12

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Conversion or Exchange
If any debt securities being offered are convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock or other securities, the relevant prospectus supplement will set forth the terms of conversion or exchange. Those terms will include, as applicable, the conversion or exchange price or rate, the conversion or exchange period, provisions as to whether conversion or exchange is mandatory, at the option of the holder or at our option, the number of shares of common stock or other securities, or the method of determining the number of shares of common stock or other securities, to be received by the holder upon conversion or exchange, the events requiring an adjustment of the conversion price or exchange price and provisions affecting conversion or exchange if such series of debt securities are redeemed. These provisions may allow or require the number of shares of our common stock or other securities to be received by the holders of such series of debt securities to be adjusted.
Payment and Paying Agents
Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement applicable to a series of debt securities, the provisions described in this paragraph will apply to the debt securities. Payment of interest on a debt security on any interest payment date will be made to the person in whose name the debt security is registered at the close of business on the regular record date. Payment on debt securities of a particular series will be payable at the office of a paying agent or paying agents designated by us. However, at our option, we may pay interest by mailing a check or by wire transfer to the record holder. The trustee will be designated as our initial paying agent.
We may also name any other paying agents in the prospectus supplement applicable to a series of debt securities. We may designate additional paying agents, change paying agents or change the office of any paying agent. However, we will be required to maintain a paying agent in each place of payment for the debt securities of a particular series.
All moneys paid by us to a paying agent for payment on any debt security that remain unclaimed for a period ending the earlier of:
10 business days prior to the date the money would be turned over to the applicable state; and
at the end of two years after such payment was due, will be repaid to us thereafter. The holder may look only to us for such payment.
No Protection in the Event of a Change of Control
Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement with respect to a particular series of debt securities, the debt securities will not contain any provisions that may afford holders of the debt securities protection in the event we have a change in control or in the event of a highly leveraged transaction, whether or not such transaction results in a change in control.
Covenants
We will set forth in the prospectus supplement any financial or restrictive covenants applicable to any issue of a particular series of debt securities.
Consolidation, Merger and Sale of Assets
Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement with respect to a particular series of debt securities, we may not consolidate with or merge into any other person, in a transaction in which we are not the surviving corporation, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all our properties and assets to, any entity, unless:
the successor entity, if any, is a corporation, limited liability company, partnership, trust or other business entity existing under the laws of the United States, any State within the United States or the District of Columbia;
the successor entity assumes our obligations under the debt securities and the applicable indenture;
immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing; and
certain other conditions specified in the indenture are met regarding our delivery of our officer’s certificate and opinion of counsel to trustee.
13

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Notwithstanding the above, any of our subsidiaries may consolidate with, merge into, sell or transfer all or part of its properties to us.
Events of Default
Unless we indicate otherwise in a prospectus supplement with respect to a particular series of debt securities, the following will be events of default for any series of debt securities under the indenture:
(1)
we fail to pay any interest on any debt security of that series when it becomes due and we subsequently fail to pay such interest for 30 days;
(2)
we fail to pay principal of or any premium on any debt security of that series when due;
(3)
we fail to perform, or breach, any other covenant or warranty in the applicable indenture and such failure continues for 90 days after we are given the notice required in the indenture; and
(4)
certain bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization events with respect to us.
Additional or different events of default applicable to a series of debt securities may be described in the prospectus supplement for that series. An event of default for one series of debt securities is not necessarily an event of default for any other series of debt securities.
Within 90 days after the occurrence of any default under the indenture with respect to the debt securities of any series that is known to a responsible officer of the trustee, the trustee will give the holders of the debt securities of such series notice of such default as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act.
The trustee may withhold notice to the holders of any default, except defaults in the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, any sinking fund installment on, or with respect to any conversion right of, the debt securities of such series. However, the trustee must consider it to be in the interests of the holders of the debt securities of such series to withhold this notice.
Unless we indicate otherwise in a prospectus supplement, if an event of default, other than an event of default described in clause (4) above, shall occur and be continuing with respect to any series of debt securities, either the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding securities of that series may declare the principal amount and premium, if any, of the debt securities of that series, or if any debt securities of that series are original issue discount securities, such other amount as may be specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, to be due and payable immediately.
If an event of default described in clause (4) above shall occur, the principal amount and premium, if any, of all the debt securities of that series, or if any debt securities of that series are original issue discount securities, such other amount as may be specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon, will automatically become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other action on the part of the trustee or any holder.
After acceleration, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding securities of that series may, under certain circumstances, rescind and annul such acceleration if all events of default, other than the non-payment of accelerated principal, or other specified amounts or interest, have been cured or waived.
Other than the duty to act as a prudent person during an event of default, the trustee will not be obligated to exercise any of its rights or powers at the request of the holders unless the holders shall have offered to the trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it. Generally, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee.
A holder of debt securities of any series will not have any right to institute any proceeding under the indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or a trustee, or for any other remedy under the indenture, unless:
(1)
the holder has previously given to the trustee written notice of a continuing event of default with respect to the debt securities of that series;
(2)
the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of
14

TABLE OF CONTENTS

that series have made a written request to the trustee and have offered to the trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the trustee to institute the proceeding; and
(3)
the trustee has failed to institute the proceeding and has not received direction inconsistent with the original request from the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series within 60 days after the original request.
Holders may, however, sue to enforce the payment of principal, premium or interest on any debt security on or after the due date or to enforce the right, if any, to convert any debt security (if the debt security is convertible) without following the procedures listed in clauses (1) through (3) immediately above.
To the extent any debt securities are outstanding, we will furnish the trustee an annual statement as to whether or not we are in default in the performance of the conditions and covenants under the indenture and, if so, specifying all known defaults.
Modification and Waiver
Unless we indicate otherwise in a prospectus supplement, we and the applicable trustee may make modifications and amendments to an indenture with the consent of the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding securities of each series affected by the modification or amendment.
We may also make modifications and amendments to the indenture for the benefit of holders without their consent, for certain purposes including, but not limited to:
providing for our successor to assume the covenants under the indenture;
adding covenants and/or events of default;
making certain changes to facilitate the issuance of the debt securities;
securing the debt securities, including provisions relating to the release or substitution of collateral;
providing for guaranties of, or additional obligors on, the debt securities;
providing for a successor trustee or additional trustees;
curing any ambiguities, defects or inconsistencies;
conforming the terms to the description of the terms of the securities in an offering memorandum, prospectus supplement or other offering document;
any other changes that do not adversely affect the rights or interest of any holder;
complying with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; and
complying with the applicable procedures of the applicable depositary.
However, neither we nor the trustee may make any modification or amendment without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security affected by the modification or amendment if such modification or amendment would:
change the stated maturity of any debt security;
reduce the principal, premium, if any, or interest on any debt security or any amount payable upon redemption or repurchase, whether at our option or the option of any holder, or reduce the amount of any sinking fund payments;
reduce the principal of an original issue discount security or any other debt security payable on acceleration of maturity;
change the currency in which any debt security is payable;
impair the right to enforce any payment after the stated maturity or redemption date of such debt security;
reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding securities of any series required for the consent of holders for any supplemental indenture or for any waiver provided for in the indenture;
15

TABLE OF CONTENTS

adversely affect the right to convert any debt security if the debt security is a convertible debt security; or
change the provisions in the indenture that relate to modifying or amending the indenture, except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of the indenture cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security affected thereby.
Except for certain specified provisions, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all debt securities of that series waive our compliance with provisions of the indenture. The holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of any series may on behalf of the holders of all the debt securities of such series waive any past default under the indenture with respect to that series and its consequences, except:
a default in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest on any debt security of that series as and when the same will become due and payable by the terms thereof, otherwise than by acceleration; or
in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding security of such series affected by such default.
Satisfaction and Discharge; Defeasance
We may be discharged from our obligations under the debt securities of any series that have matured or will mature or be redeemed within one year, subject to limited exceptions, if we deposit enough money with the trustee to pay all of the principal, interest and any premium due to the stated maturity date or redemption date of the debt securities.
The indenture contains a provision that permits us to elect either or both of the following:
We may elect to be discharged from all of our obligations, subject to limited exceptions, with respect to any series of debt securities then outstanding. If we make this election, the holders of the debt securities of the series will not be entitled to the benefits of the indenture, except for the rights of holders to receive payments on debt securities or the registration of transfer and exchange of debt securities and replacement of lost, stolen or mutilated debt securities.
We may elect to be released from our obligations under some or all of any financial or restrictive covenants applicable to the series of debt securities to which the election relates and from the consequences of an event of default resulting from a breach of those covenants.
To make either of the above elections, we must irrevocably deposit in trust with the trustee enough money to pay in full the principal, interest and premium on the debt securities and satisfy certain other conditions described in the indenture. This amount may be deposited in cash and/or U.S. government obligations or, in the case of debt securities denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, cash in the currency in which such series of securities is denominated and/or foreign government obligations. As one of the conditions to either of the above elections, for debt securities denominated in U.S. dollars, we must deliver to the trustee an opinion of counsel that the holders of the debt securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the action.
“Foreign government obligations” means, with respect to debt securities of any series that are denominated in a currency other than United States dollars:
direct obligations of the government that issued or caused to be issued the currency in which such securities are denominated and for the payment of which obligations its full faith and credit is pledged, or, with respect to debt securities of any series which are denominated in euros, direct obligations of certain members of the European Union for the payment of which obligations the full faith and credit of such members is pledged, which in each case are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof;
obligations of a person controlled or supervised by or acting as an agency or instrumentality of a government described in the bullet above, the timely payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by such government, which are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof; or
16

TABLE OF CONTENTS

any depository receipt issued by a bank as custodian with respect to any obligation specified in the first two bullet points and held by such bank for the account of the holder of such deposit any receipt, or with respect to any such obligation which is so specified and held.
“U.S. government obligations” means:
(1)
any security which is:
a direct obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged, which is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof or
an obligation of a person controlled or supervised by or acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof; and
(2)
any depository receipt issued by a bank as custodian with respect to any U.S. government obligation specified in the two bullet points above and held by such bank for the account of the holder of such deposit any receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest on any U.S. government obligation which is so specified and held, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. government obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt.
Notices
Notices to holders will be delivered in person, mailed by first-class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), sent by facsimile transmission, email or overnight air courier guaranteeing next day delivery. If any debt securities are in the form of global securities, notices will be sent in accordance with the applicable rules and procedures of the depositary.
Governing Law; Wavier of Jury Trial; Jurisdiction
The indenture and the debt securities will be governed by, and construed under, the laws of the State of New York.
The indenture will provide that we, the trustee and the holders of the debt securities (by their acceptance of the debt securities) irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to the indenture, the debt securities or the transactions contemplated thereby.
The indenture will provide that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon the indenture, the securities or the transactions contemplated thereby may be instituted in the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the City of New York or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City of New York, and we, the trustee and the holder of the debt securities irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The indenture will further provide that service of any process, summons, notice or document by any method permitted under the indenture (to the extent allowed under any applicable statute or rule of court) to such party’s address set forth in the indenture will be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The indenture will further provide that we, the trustee and the holders of the debt securities (by their acceptance of the debt securities) irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or other proceeding in the courts specified above and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim any such suit, action or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Shareholders
No incorporator, shareholder, employee, agent, officer, director or subsidiary of ours will have any liability for any obligations of ours, or because of the creation of any indebtedness, under the debt securities, the
17

TABLE OF CONTENTS

indenture, or in any board resolution, officer’s certificate or supplemental indenture. The indenture provides that all such liability is expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of such indenture and the issuance of the debt securities.
Regarding the Trustee
The accompanying prospectus supplement will specify the trustee for the particular series of debt securities to be issued under the indenture.
The indenture will limit the right of the trustee, should it become our creditor, to obtain payment of claims or secure its claims.
The trustee is permitted to engage in certain other transactions with us. However, if the trustee acquires any conflicting interest, and there is a default under the debt securities of any series for which it is trustee, the trustee must eliminate the conflict or resign.

SELLING SECURITYHOLDERS
Selling securityholders are persons or entities that, directly or indirectly, have acquired or will from time to time acquire from us, our securities in various private transactions. Such selling securityholders may be parties to registration rights agreements with us, or we otherwise may have agreed or will agree to register their securities for resale. The initial purchasers of our securities, as well as their transferees, pledgees, donees or successors, all of whom we refer to as “selling securityholders,” may from time to time offer and sell the securities pursuant to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement.
The applicable prospectus supplement will set forth the name of each selling securityholder and the number of and type of securities beneficially owned by such selling securityholder that are covered by such prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement also will disclose whether any of the selling securityholders have held any position or office with, have been employed by or otherwise have had a material relationship with us during the three years prior to the date of the prospectus supplement.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
We and any selling securityholders may sell the securities registered pursuant to this prospectus in the following ways:
to or through underwriters;
to or through dealers;
through agents;
directly to purchasers;
in at-the-market offerings into an existing trading market in accordance with Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act to or through an underwriter or underwriters acting as principal or agent;
through a combination of any of the foregoing methods; or
through any other method described in the applicable prospectus supplement.
We and any selling securityholders reserve the right to sell directly to or exchange our securities directly with investors on our own behalf in those jurisdictions where we are authorized to do so.
We and any selling securityholders may distribute such securities from time to time in one or more transactions:
at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed from time to time;
at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;
at prices related to such prevailing market prices; or
at negotiated prices.
We and any selling securityholders, or the purchasers of the securities for whom the underwriters may act as agents, may compensate underwriters in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions in connection with the sale of the securities. Underwriters may sell our securities to or through dealers, and those dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents. Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, an agent will be acting on a best efforts basis and a dealer will purchase our securities as a principal and may then resell such securities at varying prices to be determined by the dealer.
We and any selling securityholders will name any underwriter, dealer or agent involved in the offer and sale of securities in the applicable prospectus supplement. In addition, we and any selling securityholders will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement the public offering or purchase price and the proceeds we and any selling securityholders will receive from the sale of our securities, any compensation we and any selling securityholders will pay to underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with such offering of our securities, any discounts, concessions or commissions allowed or re-allowed by underwriters to participating dealers, and any exchanges on which our securities will be listed. Dealers and agents participating in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts and commissions received by them and any profit realized by them on resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. We and any selling securityholders may enter into agreements to indemnify underwriters, dealers and agents against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to reimburse these persons for certain expenses. We and any selling securityholders may also agree to contribute to payments that the underwriters, dealers or agents or any of their controlling persons may be required to make in respect of such liabilities. We and any selling securityholders may grant underwriters who participate in the distribution of the securities being registered pursuant to this prospectus an option to purchase additional securities in connection with a subsequent distribution. Certain underwriters, dealers or agents and their associates may engage in transactions with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of our business.
To facilitate the offering of our securities, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of our securities. Such transactions may include over-allotments or short sales of our securities, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more securities than we and any selling securityholders sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons
20

TABLE OF CONTENTS

would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their option to purchase additional securities, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of our securities by bidding for or purchasing such securities in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to dealers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if the securities sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. Should these transactions be undertaken, they may be discontinued at any time.
