# IRT elects Alternative Structure: CSR will merge into IRT subsidiary in pending deal

## Summary
- Amendment dated 9/22/2026: CSR merges into Islanders Sub, LLC (Parent Merger Sub), a Delaware LLC, which survives as the company.
- Partnership Merger unchanged—OP Merger Sub still merges into Centerspace, LP; deal per original 9/8/2026 Agreement remains in effect.
- IRT, IRT OP, and subs irrevocably waive representation inaccuracies caused solely by adopting the Alternative Structure.
- Exchange Ratio and Share Merger Consideration terms persist; shares of CSR convert into IRT common stock as previously agreed.
