Important Additional Information
The tender offer described
herein has not yet commenced. This filing is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to purchase or a solicitation
of an offer to sell any Common Shares (including any ADSs) or other securities. If and at the time the tender offer is commenced, IUH
and ITB intend to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule
TO containing an offer to purchase, a form of letter of transmittal and other documents relating to the tender offer, and no later than
10 business days from the date of commencement of the tender offer, the Company will file a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule

OFFER AS THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE TENDER OFFER.
Such documents, and other

offer to purchase and related materials may also be obtained (when available) for free by contacting the information agent for the tender
offer.
The
tender offer will not be made, directly or indirectly, in any country or jurisdiction in which such offer would be considered unlawful
or otherwise violate any applicable laws or regulations, or which would require IUH and ITB to change or amend the terms or conditions
of such offer in any manner, to make any additional filing with any governmental or regulatory authority or take any additional action
in relation to such offer.
In
addition, the tender offer documents, this Schedule TO and related materials will not and may not be distributed, forwarded and transmitted

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
This filing may contain
certain forward-looking statements regarding future events, conditions, circumstances or the future financial performance of the Company
following completion of the transaction mentioned herein. Often, but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the
use of words such as “plans,” “expects,” “expected,” “scheduled,” “estimates,”
“intends,” “anticipates” or “believes,” or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain
actions, events, conditions, circumstances or results “may,” “could,” “would,” “might”
or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different
degrees, uncertain. Many risks, uncertainties and other factors, which are often times beyond our control, could cause actual results
to differ materially from these forward-looking statements, including, in addition to factors previously disclosed in the Company’s
reports filed with the SEC and those identified elsewhere in this filing, risks relating the timing for the commencement of the tender
offer, the completion of the proposed tender offer on anticipated terms and timing, including satisfaction of all conditions to the tender
offer. IUH and ITB cannot give any assurance that such forward-looking statements will prove to have been correct. The reader is cautioned
not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. IUH and ITB disclaim
any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events,
conditions, circumstances or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to be a forecast,
projection or estimate of the future financial performance of IUH, ITB, the Company or any of their respective affiliates, following completion
of the proposed transaction. Please consult any further disclosures IUH, ITB and/or the Company make on related subjects in reports to
the SEC.
