This amendment (this “Amendment No. 2”) 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”). 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 amended 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 purchase of Shares described in Item 4 of Amendment No. 2 was made using an aggregate amount of approximately $13,200,000 from the purchaser’s working capital.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
Item 4 is hereby amended by the addition of the following:
On October 8, 2021, CM Change II purchased 200,000 Shares in an offering by the Issuer. The foregoing description of the offering is qualified in its entirety by the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement on Form 424(b)(5), filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on October 7, 2021.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
Item 5(a) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
(a) As of the date hereof, each of Conversant Capital, Conversant GP and Mr. Simanovsky collectively may be deemed to beneficially own 1,049,088 shares of Common Stock, which excludes 504,590 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant held by CM Change, as indicated in the footnotes on the respective cover pages for such Reporting Persons. CM Change may be deemed to beneficially own 515,755 shares of Common Stock, which excludes 504,590 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant held by CM Change, as indicated in the footnotes on the cover page for CM Change. CM Change II may be deemed to beneficially own 533,333 shares of Common Stock. SCHF, due to its role as the general partner of SCHF PV, may be deemed to beneficially own 0 shares of Common Stock, excluding 504,590 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant held by CM Change, as indicated in the footnotes on the cover page for SCHF. The filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that either SCHF or SCHF PV is the beneficial owner of any Shares included herein for the purposes of Sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The aggregate percentage of Common Stock reported owned by the Reporting Persons is based upon 9,880,723 shares of Common Stock outstanding (excluding the number of shares issuable if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full) upon completion of the offering described in the Issuer’s Prospectus Supplement on Form 424(b)(5), filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on October 7, 2021.
The Warrant contains restrictions on exercise such that it may not be exercised if the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such exercise or conversion would result in the holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules thereunder (“Section 13(d)”)) in excess of 9.90% of all of the Common Stock outstanding at such time (the “Ownership Limitation”). Each of the Reporting Persons (other than CM Change II) disclaims beneficial ownership of any and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant to the extent that such exercise would cause aggregate beneficial ownership of CM Change or its affiliates to exceed or remain above the Ownership Limitation.
Item 5(b) is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
(b) As of the date hereof, CM Change beneficially owned 515,755 issued and outstanding Shares, and none of the Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant, constituting approximately 5.2% of the outstanding Common Stock, and CM Change II beneficially owned 533,333 issued and outstanding Shares, constituting approximately 5.4% of the outstanding Common Stock. As of the date hereof, SCHF beneficially owned 0 issued and outstanding Shares, constituting 0% of the outstanding Common Stock. Conversant GP, Conversant Capital, and Mr. Simanovsky may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned directly by CM Change and CM Change II. Conversant Capital, Conversant GP and Mr. Simanovsky have shared voting and dispositive power over the Shares directly held by CM Change and CM Change II and the Warrant. SCHF, due to its role as the general partner of SCHF PV, shares dispositive power over the Warrant with CM Change.
Item 5(c) is hereby amended to add the following:
Except as described in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 2, as of the date of this Amendment No. 2 the Reporting Persons have not entered into any transactions in the Common Stock during the past sixty days.
-8-

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer. Item 6 is hereby amended by the addition of the following:

On October 8, 2021, CM Change II purchased 200,000 Shares in an offering by the Issuer, as described in Item 4 of Amendment No. 2
