On October 4, 2021, the Company closed the acquisition of Plato BioPharma, Inc. (“Plato”), a Colorado-based, in vivo pharmacology research and drug discovery company specializing in cardiovascular, renal, pulmonary and hepatic therapeutic areas. Transaction consideration totaled $15,000, consisting of $10,000 in cash, 57,587 Inotiv common shares having a value of $2,000 based on the weighted average closing price of Company shares as reported by NASDAQ for the twenty trading-day period ending on September 29, 2021, and $3,000 in unsecured promissory notes. The initial allocation of the purchase price is still being assessed by the Company.

On October 4, 2021, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which amended the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement between the Company and First Internet Bank of Indiana

(“FIB”), as amended. Pursuant to the Amendment, FIB consented to the acquisition by the Company of Plato by merger of Plato with a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and the subsequent merger of the surviving corporation of that merger with another wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In addition, the Amendment amended the Credit Agreement to (i) add the promissory notes to be issued to former Plato shareholders in the Plato Acquisition as permitted indebtedness, which notes will be issued by the surviving company, guaranteed by the Company and subordinated in favor of the Lender, and (ii) add references to the Plato Acquisition to certain provisions of the Credit Agreement relating to subordination agreements, representations and warranties, and certain covenants to permit the Plato Acquisition to occur. The Amendment includes agreements by the Company to obtain certain landlord waivers within 30 days of the closing of the Plato Acquisition and to deliver to the Lender signed subordination agreements. On November 5, 2021, the Company repaid all indebtedness and terminated the credit agreement related to the FIB credit facility as described in Note 7.

On November 4, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized Common Shares from 20,000,000 shares, consisting of 19,000,000 Common Shares and 1,000,000 Preferred Shares, to 75,000,000 shares, consisting of 74,000,000 Common Shares and 1,000,000 Preferred Shares. Approval of this matter by the Inotiv shareholders was a condition to the closing of the Envigo acquisition (described below). The amendment was effective on November 4, 2021. On November 4, 2021, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the Company's 2018 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares available for awards thereunder by 1,500,000 shares and to make certain corresponding changes to the plan.

On November 4, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved, among other matters, the issuance of Inotiv common shares to the stockholders and option holders of Envigo RMS Holding Corp. (“Envigo”) in connection with the acquisition of Envigo by merger of Envigo with a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Approval of this matter by the Inotiv shareholders was a condition to the closing of the Envigo acquisition.

On November 5, 2021, the Company completed the Envigo Acquisition of all outstanding Envigo stock by merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company with and into Envigo. Envigo is primarily a products business that provides research-quality animals for use in laboratory tests, as well as standard and custom laboratory animal diets and bedding and other associated services for contract research organizations, biopharmaceutical companies, universities, governments and other research organizations. Envigo provides our customers with laboratory animals used in basic research and product development and non-clinical testing of compounds to support the development and approval of new medicines. Utilizing its portfolio of products, Envigo enables our customers to create a more flexible product development model and reduce their costs, enhance their productivity, and increase speed to market. Envigo's vision, working together to build a healthier and safer world, includes helping our customers meet certain regulatory requirements in order to bring life-saving and life-enhancing new medicines to patients.

The aggregate consideration paid to the holders of outstanding capital stock in Envigo in the merger consisted of $205,200 in base cash consideration, plus preliminary estimated net working capital adjustments paid in cash of approximately $13,000 and 8,245,918 Inotiv common shares issued as of the date of the transaction, which were valued at the Company’s opening stock price of $53.31 on the acquisition date. Additionally, there were 790,620 common shares issuable upon the exercise of certain Envigo stock options that were assumed by the Company in the transaction and were valued at $44.80 per share utilizing a Black-Scholes option valuation model. A portion of those stock options were included within the consideration transferred of approximately $19,500, while the remaining options, and some cash considerations, were included as post-combination expense. The total consideration transferred, as well as the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, has not yet been finalized and the purchase price allocation has not yet been completed. Significant, relevant information needed to complete the initial accounting is not available because the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is not complete. As a result, determining these values is not practicable, and we are unable to disclose these values or provide other related disclosures at this time. The amounts will be finalized as the information necessary to complete the analysis is obtained, but no later than one year after the acquisition date.

The Company recorded transaction costs of $4,124 related to the Envigo acquisition for the year ended September 30, 2021.

On November 5, 2021, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company issued 8,245,918 of the Company’s common shares to the stockholders of Envigo at the closing of the Envigo Acquisition. The shares were issued in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D thereunder as sales by an issuer not involving any public offering.

On November 5, 2021, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into a Shareholders Agreement  with certain stockholders of Envigo. On November 4, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) expanded the size of the Board to seven members and appointed Nigel Brown, Ph.D. and Scott Cragg to the Board pursuant to the terms of the Shareholders Agreement. On November 5, 2021, Richard A. Johnson, Ph.D. tendered his resignation as a director of the Company, to be effective automatically upon notice to Dr. Johnson from the Company that the Board is prepared to elect the Approved Director as provided in the Shareholders Agreement.  

On November 5, 2021, the Company repaid all indebtedness related to the FIB credit facility as described in Note 7.

On November 5, 2021, the Company, certain of subsidiaries of the Company, the lenders party thereto, and Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent, entered into a Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”).
