indie Semiconductor Extends Warrant Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation

indie Semiconductor, Inc. (NASDAQ: INDI) (“indie” or the “Company”), an Autotech solutions innovator, today announced that it has extended its previously announced exchange offer (the “Offer”) and consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”) relating to its outstanding (i) public warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A common stock”), which warrants trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “INDIW” (the “public warrants”), and (ii) private placement warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock (the “private placement warrants” and, together with the public warrants, the “warrants”). As extended, the offering period will continue until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 20, 2023, or such later time and date to which the Company may extend (the “Expiration Date”), as described in the Company’s Schedule TO and Prospectus/Offer to Exchange (each as defined below). This one day extension provides for the full 20 business day offering period, including the Columbus Day federal holiday. Tendered warrants may be withdrawn by holders at any time prior to the Expiration Date.

The Offer and Consent Solicitation were previously scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 19, 2023. The other terms of the Offer and Consent Solicitation are as set forth in a prospectus/offer to exchange, dated September 29, 2023 (the “Prospectus/Offer to Exchange”), and Schedule TO, dated September 29, 2023 (the “Schedule TO”), each of which have been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and more fully set forth the terms and conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation.

Concurrently with the Offer, the Company is also soliciting consents from holders of the warrants to amend the warrant agreement that governs all of the warrants (the “Warrant Agreement”) to permit the Company to require that each warrant that is outstanding upon the closing of the Offer be exchanged for 0.2565 shares of Class A common stock, which is a ratio 10% less than the exchange ratio applicable to the Offer (such amendment, the “Warrant Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, all except certain specified modifications or amendments require the vote or written consent of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding public warrants and private placement warrants. Parties representing approximately 32% of the outstanding warrants have agreed to tender their warrants in the Offer and to consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation pursuant to a tender and support agreement. Accordingly, if additional holders of approximately 18% of the outstanding warrants consent to the Warrant Amendment in the Consent Solicitation, and the other conditions described herein are waived, then the Warrant Amendment will be adopted. As of 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 28, 2023, 34,672 Warrants, or approximately 0.1% of the outstanding Warrants, had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn.

The Company’s Class A common stock and public warrants are listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols “INDI” and “INDIW,” respectively. As of September 28, 2023, there were (i) 153,386,430 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, (ii) 18,994,328 shares of Class V common stock issued and outstanding and (iii) a total of 27,374,887 warrants were outstanding, including our public warrants and private placement warrants.

The Company has engaged BofA Securities as the dealer manager for the Offer and Consent Solicitation (the “Dealer Manager”). Any questions or requests for assistance concerning the Offer and Consent Solicitation may be directed to BofA Securities at:
