Neutral Impact 4 of 5 m&a Written later

On September 22, 2026, Independence Realty Trust (IRT) and related parties signed an amendment to the merger agreement with Centerspace first signed on September 8, 2026. IRT elected an alternative structure for the Company Merger, under which Centerspace would merge into an IRT subsidiary that survives the merger. The filing does not state a deal value or change in consideration, so the amendment's effect on shareholder payments cannot be determined from this document.
