ITEM 1.01 — Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On September 11, 2018, Insmed Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into an agreement (the “Lease”) with Exeter 700 Route 202/206, LLC to lease approximately 117,000 rentable square feet of office space located at 700 Route 202/206, Bridgewater, New Jersey for the Company’s headquarters.  Subject to certain conditions, the Company has the one-time option to expand the leased premises by up to 50,000 rentable square feet, exercisable prior to the fifth anniversary of the Commencement Date (as defined below).

 

The Lease provides for a commencement date of the earlier of (1) September 1, 2019, subject to completion of certain improvements by specified dates, and (2) the date on which the Company takes possession of the premises to commence its business operations therein (the “Commencement Date”).  The initial Lease term runs 130 months from the Commencement Date (plus any partial month from the Commencement Date until the first day of the next full calendar month during the term), and the Company has the option to extend that term for up to three additional five-year periods. The monthly base rent under the Lease, which will begin three months following the Commencement Date, will initially be approximately $244,000 and will increase incrementally over the life of the Lease, up to approximately $292,000 during the last nine months of the initial Lease term.  Monthly base rent is subject to adjustment according to the Lease and subject to abatement during months 37-43 of the Lease term upon the Company’s full and timely performance of its obligations under the Lease.  The Company is also responsible for operating expenses and taxes pursuant to the Lease.  The Lease contains customary default provisions, including those relating to payment defaults, performance defaults and events of bankruptcy.

 

The foregoing description is a summary of the material terms of the Lease and does not purport to be complete. It is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Lease, a copy of which is filed as exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
