As a part of the sale, the Trust received a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $2,750,000 with interest to be accrued at 3.75% per annum, which is recorded in the accompanying condensed balance sheet in continuing operations, net of impairment of $825,000 as described below.

● Payments on the note receivable include principal and interest beginning in November 2021

● Note is secured by (1) pledge of the Buyer’s interest in IBC, and (2) a security interest in all assets of IBC, provided IHT shall agree to subordinate such equity interest to commercially reasonable debt financing upon request.

As of January 31, 2020, the Trust evaluated the carrying value of the note of $2,750,000 for potential impairment. After review, an impairment of $825,000, or 30%, was taken against the note. Factors for the impairment included, but were not limited to:

● Management’s evaluation of the current financial position of the Buyer, based on unaudited financial statements provided.

● Management’s best, conservative valuation of IBC’s assets, and their marketability, in the case of a default by the Buyer.

● The current and future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, on the travel and hospitality industry, in which IBC’s reservation and booking technology operates.

As of January 31, 2021, management evaluated the carrying value of the note and the impairment taken to date, and determined no further impairment is needed at this time.

IHT has no managerial control nor does IHT have the ability to direct the operations or capital requirements of IBC as of August 1, 2018. IHT has no rights to any benefits or losses from IBC as of August 1, 2018.
