VIEW OUR CODE OF CONDUCT Executive Committee Insmed’s Executive Committee is comprised of members of senior management and led by the Chief Executive Officer. Healthcare Compliance and Risk Committees are a regular agenda item. Training Another critical element to our Global Healthcare Compliance Program is the education and training of our employees on their ethical and legal obligations regarding healthcare compliance related topics. Our Global Healthcare Compliance Program incorporates training on Insmed’s policies, processes and standards. Insmed will regularly review and update training programs and identify additional areas of training on an as needed basis. Risk Assessment, Auditing and Monitoring Insmed’s Global Healthcare Compliance Program includes conducting risk assessments which drive monitoring, auditing, and ongoing evaluation to ensure compliance with the company’s policies and procedures. The extent and frequency of auditing and monitoring activities is guided by assessing risk and varies according to a variety of factors including changes in business activities, changes in regulatory requirements, and other considerations. The results of monitoring and/or auditing reviews may be used as a basis for improving upon existing policies/procedures or adopting new ones and for the development or modification of training or business practices. Third-Party Due Diligence Insmed engages in risk-based compliance third-party due diligence. This includes the qualifications of the third party, including business reputation and any relationship with foreign officials. Payment arrangements are also evaluated to ensure appropriate compensation which is not used as a basis for bribery or corruption. Procedures for Reporting Violations Insmed has an open-door policy and encourages open communication amongst our colleagues. We encourage reporting of potential instances of noncompliance and have a policy of non-retaliation. Our Code of Conduct and policies require employees to report any known or suspected violations of law, regulations, company policies or procedures. To support this effort, Insmed has established several vehicles for reporting including an external reporting hotline to facilitate confidential, anonymous reporting. Additionally, Insmed investigates all reports and prohibits retaliation against any person who, in good faith, reports known or suspected compliance issues.

Investigations, Sanctions and Corrective Actions In the event that Insmed becomes aware of any alleged violations of law, regulation, policy or procedure, we investigate the circumstances surrounding the alleged noncompliance to determine whether a violation has occurred. While each substantiated violation will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, where appropriate Insmed will use corrective actions consistent with company policy, up to and including termination. Continuous Improvement Insmed evaluates its comprehensive compliance program on an ongoing basis for improvements, addressing gaps or issues found through investigation, monitoring and auditing, and in response to changes in laws, regulations and industry standards.
