This amendment (this “Amendment No. 4”) further amends the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on September 3, 2020 (the “Original Schedule 13D”) with respect to the Common Stock, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock” or “Shares”) of INDUS Realty Trust, Inc. (formerly Griffin Industrial Realty, Inc.) (the “Issuer”), as previously amended on March 5, 2021 (“Amendment No. 1”), October 12, 2021 (“Amendment No. 2”) and February 23, 2023 (“Amendment No. 3”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings defined in the Original Schedule 13D as previously amended. The Original Schedule 13D, as previously amended, is further amended hereby only as specifically set forth herein, provided that with respect to any Item amended herein, if such Item is incorporated by reference into any other Item in the Original Schedule 13D as previously amended, such incorporation by reference is also amended hereby.

Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is hereby amended by the addition of the following:

The information set forth in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended by the addition of the following:

Merger

As previously disclosed, on February 22, 2023, the Issuer, IR Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), IR Merger Sub II, Inc., a Maryland corporation and a subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub” and, together with Parent, the “Parent Parties”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”).

On June 29, 2023, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Sub merged with and into the Issuer (the “Merger”), with the Issuer surviving the Merger and becoming a subsidiary of Parent (such subsidiary, the “Surviving Entity”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger (the “Merger Effective Time”), each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (other than shares of Common Stock held by the Issuer and the Parent Parties) was canceled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $67.00 per share (the “Merger Consideration”), without interest.

Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the shares of Common Stock are to be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and will be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Warrant

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time, the Warrant was cancelled and terminated and converted into the right to receive from the Surviving Entity an amount in cash (without interest) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrant immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time by (y) an amount equal to the Merger Consideration less the per share exercise price of the Warrant. The Warrant was exercisable for 515,747 shares of Common Stock at a per-share exercise price of $58.70.

Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Items 5(a) and (b) are hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(a) (b) For information regarding beneficial ownership, see the information presented on the cover page of this Schedule 13D.

Item 5(c) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(c) Except as set forth in this Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons have not effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60 days.

Item 5(e) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:

(e) As described in this Schedule 13D, as of June 29, 2023, the Reporting Persons ceased to beneficially own more than 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock.
