indie Semiconductor Announces Proposed Convertible Senior Notes Offering
and $50 million Repurchase Authorization

ALISO VIEJO, Calif.--November 16, 2022--indie Semiconductor, Inc. (“indie” or “we”) (NASDAQ: INDI), an Autotech solutions innovator, today announced that it plans to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $125 million aggregate principal amount of its Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 (the “notes”) through a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). indie expects to grant the initial purchasers in the offering an option to purchase, exercisable within the 30-day period immediately following the pricing date of the offering, up to an additional $18.75 million aggregate principal amount of notes. indie also announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase, from time to time, of up to $50 million of indie’s Class A common stock (the “common stock”) (inclusive of any concurrent repurchase of shares of common stock described below) and/or warrants to purchase common stock.

The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of indie, and interest on the notes will be payable semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2023. The notes will mature on November 15, 2027, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. In certain circumstances and during certain periods, the notes may be converted into cash, shares of common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at indie’s election.

indie expects to use a portion of the net proceeds from the notes offering for the concurrent repurchase of up to $25 million of common stock (the “concurrent repurchase”) and to use the remainder of the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include additional repurchases of common stock and/or purchases of indie’s warrants to purchase common stock, as described below, and potential acquisitions.

Concurrently with the pricing of the notes, indie expects to enter into privately negotiated transactions through one of the initial purchasers or its affiliate to effect the concurrent repurchase. These activities could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the trading price of the common stock and may affect the initial terms of the notes, including the conversion price of the notes. After deducting the amount of the concurrent repurchase, the repurchase authorization permits indie to use the remainder of the authorized amount to make repurchases, on a discretionary basis as determined by indie’s management, of common stock and/or warrants to purchase common stock through open market purchases, in privately negotiated transactions or in other permitted manners. The amount and timing of any such repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including price, trading volume, general market conditions and legal requirements, among others. There is no guarantee as to the number of shares or warrants that will be repurchased, and the repurchase authorization does not obligate indie to acquire any particular amount of common stock or warrants. The repurchase authorization may be extended, suspended or discontinued at any time without notice at indie’s discretion.

The notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes, if any, have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, or under any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration under, or an applicable exemption from, the registration requirements. This press release is not an offer to sell, nor is it a solicitation of an offer to buy, these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any state or any jurisdiction. This press release is issued pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act.
