INDUS Announces Quarterly Cash Dividend

Pending Merger Transaction

As previously announced, on February 22, 2023, INDUS entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among the Company, IR Parent, LLC and IR Merger Sub II, Inc. (the “Merger Agreement”), whereby affiliates of Centerbridge Partners, L.P., a private investment firm with deep experience in real estate, and GIC, a global institutional investor, will acquire all outstanding shares of INDUS’ common stock through a merger transaction (the “Merger”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. The Merger was approved at a special meeting of INDUS stockholders held on May 17, 2023. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, concurrently with the closing of the Merger, each share of INDUS’ common stock will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $67.00, without interest, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Consideration”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, assuming the Merger closes after the Record Date, the second quarter dividend will be paid on the Payment Date to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the Record Date and the Merger Consideration will not be adjusted for the second quarter dividend payment. However, if the Merger closes on or before the Record Date, then instead the Merger Consideration payable to the Company’s public stockholders would be increased by $0.18 per share and the second quarter dividend would not separately be paid to the Company’s public stockholders. If the Merger does not close until after the end of the second quarter, the Merger Consideration may be adjusted for a subsequent period dividend on a prorated basis in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger is expected to close in the early summer of 2023, subject to the satisfaction of the remaining conditions to the Merger, including the clearance of the Merger by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States. INDUS cannot predict when or if all of the conditions to the Merger will be satisfied or, to the extent permissible, waived, and when the closing of the Merger will occur.
