ABOUT INSULET CORPORATION
 
We are a medical device company that develops, manufactures and markets an innovative, discreet and easy-to-use insulin infusion system for people with insulin-dependent diabetes. Our proprietary OmniPod Insulin Management System, or OmniPod System, which consists of our OmniPod disposable insulin infusion device and our handheld, wireless Personal Diabetes Manager, is the only commercially-available insulin infusion system of its kind. Conventional insulin pumps require people with insulin-dependent diabetes to learn to use, manage and wear a number of cumbersome components, including up to 42 inches of tubing. In contrast, the OmniPod System features only two discreet, easy-to-use devices that eliminate the need for a bulky pump, tubing and separate blood glucose meter, provide for virtually pain-free automated cannula insertion, communicate wirelessly and integrate a blood glucose meter. We believe that the OmniPod System’s unique proprietary design offers significant lifestyle benefits to people with insulin-dependent diabetes.
 
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, approved the OmniPod System in January 2005. In October 2005, we shipped our first commercial OmniPod System. We have progressively expanded our marketing efforts from an initial focus in the Eastern United States to having availability of the OmniPod System in the entire United States. In January 2010, we entered into a five year distribution agreement with Ypsomed Distribution AG, or Ypsomed, to become the exclusive distributor of the OmniPod System in eleven countries, subject to approved reimbursement. Through our partnership with Ypsomed, the OmniPod System is now available in seven markets, namely Germany, the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland. We expect that Ypsomed will begin distribution of the OmniPod System, subject to approved reimbursement, in the other markets under the agreement in the last half of 2011 and 2012. In February 2011, we entered into a distribution agreement with GlaxoSmithKline Inc., or GSK, to become the exclusive distributor of the OmniPod System in Canada. We expect that GSK will begin distributing the OmniPod System in Canada, subject to approved reimbursement, in the next few months. We focus our sales initiatives towards key diabetes practitioners, academic centers and clinics specializing in the treatment of diabetes patients, as well as individual diabetes patients. In May 2011, we submitted a Form 510K with the FDA to request approval of our next generation OmniPod System. The new OmniPod is approximately a third smaller in size, 25% lighter in weight and a third less expensive for us to produce. Once approved, we expect to transition our customer base over a six to twelve month period to the next generation OmniPod.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
 
This prospectus relates to the resale from time to time of up to a total of 1,197,631 shares of our common stock by the Selling Stockholders. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement and plan of merger, dated June 1, 2011, that we entered into with Nectar Acquisition I Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger Sub”), Neighborhood Diabetes and the subsidiaries of Neighborhood Diabetes, we issued a total of 1,197,631 shares of our common stock to the stockholders of Neighborhood Diabetes as partial consideration to acquire Neighborhood Diabetes (the “Acquisition”) and filed a registration statement on Form S-3, of which this prospectus constitutes a part, to permit the Selling Stockholders to resell to the public the shares of our common stock issued to them in connection with the Acquisition.
 
The following table, which was prepared based on information supplied to us by the Selling Stockholders, sets forth the names of the Selling Stockholders, the number of shares of common stock owned by each selling stockholder as of June 1, 2011 after giving effect to the Acquisition and the number of shares to be offered by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus. The table also provides information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by the Selling Stockholders as adjusted to reflect the assumed sale of the shares offered under this prospectus.
 
The number of shares disclosed in the table below as “beneficially owned” are those beneficially owned as determined under the rules of the SEC. Such information is not necessarily indicative of ownership for any other purpose. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security.
 
The percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 47,229,107 shares of voting common stock outstanding on June 1, 2011 after giving effect to the Acquisition. Unless otherwise indicated and subject to community property laws where

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
The Selling Stockholders may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock listed elsewhere in this prospectus from time to time on The NASDAQ Global Market, any other exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the shares of our common stock are then listed, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions, or in any other legal manner, at fixed prices, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. Any child, spouse, or trust for the benefit, of a selling stockholder or, in the case of a partnership, limited liability company or corporation, in which the selling stockholder is a partner, member or stockholder, who are pledgees, donees, transferees, or other successors in interest of any of the named Selling Stockholders that received shares of common stock from a named selling stockholder as a non-sale-related transfer after the date of this prospectus may also use this prospectus and are included when we refer to “Selling Stockholders” in this prospectus. Without limiting the

Table of Contents

foregoing, Selling Stockholders may sell the shares of common stock by one or more of the following methods:
 
  •  block trades (which may include cross trades) in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
  •  purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by the broker or dealer for its own account;
 
  •  an exchange distribution or secondary distribution in accordance with the rules of any stock exchange on which the shares are listed;
 
  •  ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchases;
 
  •  an offering at other than a fixed price on or through the facilities of any stock exchange on which the shares are listed or to or through a market maker other than on that stock exchange;
 
  •  through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging or derivative transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
 
  •  privately negotiated transactions, directly or through agents;
 
  •  through the distribution of the shares by any selling stockholder to its partners, members or stockholders;
 
  •  by pledge to secure debts or other obligations;
 
  •  one or more underwritten offerings;
 
  •  agreements between a broker or dealer and one or more of the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of the shares at a stipulated price per share; and
 
  •  any combination of any of these methods of sale or distribution, or any other method permitted by applicable law.
 
The Selling Stockholders may also transfer the shares of our common stock by gift.
 
The Selling Stockholders may engage brokers and dealers, and any brokers or dealers may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate in effecting sales of the shares of our common stock. These brokers, dealers or underwriters may act as principals, or as an agent of a selling stockholder. Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of the shares of our common stock at a stipulated price per security. If the broker-dealer is unable to sell shares acting as agent for a selling stockholder, it may purchase as principal any unsold shares at the stipulated price. Broker-dealers who acquire shares as principals may thereafter resell the shares from time to time in transactions in any stock exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the shares are then listed, at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. Broker-dealers may use block transactions and sales to and through broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above. The Selling Stockholders may also sell the shares in accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act rather than pursuant to this prospectus, regardless of whether the shares are covered by this prospectus.
 
In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these shares to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these shares. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealers or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

Table of Contents

The Selling Stockholders and any underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents that participate in the distribution of the shares of our common stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any discounts, concessions, commissions or fees received by them and any profit on the resale of the shares sold by them may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions. Neither the delivery of any prospectus, or any prospectus supplement, nor any other action taken by a selling stockholder or any purchaser relating to the purchase or sale of shares under this prospectus shall be treated as an admission that any of them is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act relating to the sale of any shares. The Selling Stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, broker or dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
 
The Selling Stockholders and other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares of our common stock will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, which may include Regulation M. This regulation may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by the Selling Stockholders and any other person. The anti-manipulation rules under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the Selling Stockholders and their affiliates. Furthermore, Regulation M may restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares to engage in market-making activities with respect to the particular shares being distributed for a period of up to five business days before the distribution. These restrictions may affect the marketability of the shares and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares.
 
We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders, any underwriter and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, and each person who controls any of them within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against specified liabilities, including liabilities under the federal securities laws. The Selling Stockholders have agreed to indemnify us (and our officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives), any underwriter or other selling stockholder (and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives) and each person who controls any of them, against specified liabilities arising from information provided by the Selling Stockholder for use in this prospectus, including liabilities under the federal securities laws.
 
The shares of our common stock offered hereby were originally issued to the Selling Stockholders pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We agreed to register the shares under the Securities Act, and, subject to certain limitations, to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part effective, as to any selling stockholder, until the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the closing date of the Acquisition pursuant to which the Selling Stockholders acquired their shares of our common stock registered hereunder or (2) such time as all of the shares of our common stock registered hereby are no longer held by the Selling Stockholders or certain permitted transferees. Other than expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholders, we have agreed to bear all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the common stock offered by the Selling Stockholders. We have also agreed to reimburse the Selling Stockholders for any underwriting discounts and commissions in connection with one underwritten offering of their shares of our common stock registered hereby.
 
The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from the sale of common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the Selling Stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.
 
We can not assure you that the Selling Stockholders will sell all or any portion of the shares of our common stock offered hereby. Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of our common stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.

Item 15.   Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
 
Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware provides that a corporation has the power to indemnify a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation and certain other persons serving at the request of the corporation in related capacities against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlements actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with an action, suit or proceeding to which he is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of such position, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, in any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of actions brought by or in the right of the corporation, no indemnification shall be made with respect to any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or other adjudicating court determines that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all of the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.
 
As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, our Eighth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, or certificate of incorporation, includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) under section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (regarding unlawful dividends and stock purchases) or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, our Amended and Restated By-laws, or by-laws, provide that (1) we are required to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to certain very limited exceptions, (2) we may indemnify other employees as set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, (3) we are required to advance expenses, as incurred, to our directors and executive officers in connection with a legal proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, subject to certain very limited exceptions, and may do so for our executive officers and (4) the rights conferred in our by-laws are not exclusive.
 
At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers or employees with respect to which we may have indemnification obligations.


II-1


Table of Contents

The indemnification provisions in our certificate of incorporation, by-laws and the indemnification agreements entered into between us and each of our directors and executive officers may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of our directors and executive officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
 
We have obtained liability insurance for our officers and directors.
 
Item 16.   Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.
 
A list of exhibits filed with this registration statement on Form S-3 is set forth on the Exhibit Index and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 17.   Undertakings.
 
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration statement:
 
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
 
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and
 
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; and
 
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b).
 
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
 
(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
 
(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of


II-2


Table of Contents

the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.
 
(5) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(6) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
(7) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
