Underwritten Public Offering of 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025

 

On January 23, 2018, Insmed Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and Leerink Partners LLC, as managers of the underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), relating to the offer and sale of $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). In the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriters an option exercisable for 30 days from the date of the Prospectus Supplement (as defined below) to purchase up to an additional $50 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, solely to cover over-allotments, which the Underwriters exercised on January 24, 2018. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the Notes, after deducting the underwriting fees and discounts and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, are expected to be approximately $435.8 million.

 

The offering is being made pursuant to a base prospectus dated January 22, 2018, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as part of a shelf registration statement that became automatically effective upon filing, as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 thereto, filed with the SEC on January 22, 2018, as supplemented by a preliminary prospectus supplement filed with the SEC on January 22, 2018, and a final prospectus supplement, dated January 23, 2018 (the “Prospectus Supplement”). The closing of the offering is expected to take place on or about January 26, 2018, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

 

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and termination provisions. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description of the terms of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement. The legal opinion of Hunton & Williams LLP relating to the notes being offered is filed herewith as Exhibit 5.1.  The legal opinion of Covington & Burling LLP relating to the notes being offered is filed herewith as Exhibit 5.2.

 

The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture and a supplemental indenture to be entered into by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee.
