RECENT AND ONGOING PROJECTS

Described hereunder are recent and ongoing projects and developments of the Group's business. These points are set out in no particular order, both chronological as well as strategic or financial.

Corinthia Hotel Rome (opening 2024)

Corinthia Hotels Limited ("CHL"), through a lease agreement, will be operating a redeveloped hotel property in Rome which was acquired and is being funded through its extensive reconstruction and refurbishment by a third- party investor. The property is the former seat of the Bank of Italy in Parliament Square. Works are at an advanced stage for the conversion of the 7,500m2 building into a luxury hotel featuring 60 guest rooms including a number of suites. The public areas include 2 restaurants, bars and lounges, all wrapped around a central garden. The hotel also has a spa and other amenities. CDI Limited ("CDI"), IHI's development company, is contracted to support in the delivery of the project, whilst CHL is the operator and lessee.

Corinthia Hotel Brussels (opening 2024)

The project entails the development and opening of a grand luxury Corinthia Hotel in Brussels, Belgium. The owner of this investment is NLI Holdings Ltd, in which IHI has a 50% shareholding. NLI acquired the former Grand Hotel Astoria in Brussels in 2016, together with an empty land plot adjoining the listed hotel building and four vacant town houses at the rear of the original hotel. The said acquisitions were originated and executed by CDI. QPM Limited ("QP"), an IHI subsidiary, is engaged as project manager to coordinate and supervise the reconstruction process. Once complete, the hotel will be operated by CHL.

The new hotel will have 126 luxury bedrooms and suites and will offer unrivalled amenities for the city of Brussels including a fully restored grand ballroom, an 850m2 spa, various dining venues, meeting facilities and high-end retail shops.

Corinthia Hotel New York (opening 2024)

The property was acquired by the private investment firm Reuben Brothers in 2020 and is in New York's luxurious upper east side. Works are ongoing for the development of a Corinthia Hotel which shall comprise 100 guest rooms (including 33 suites, 5 signature suites and 12 luxury residences). By virtue of the management agreement, CHL is appointed as the manager of the hotel to provide management services and to supervise, direct and control the management and the marketing of the hotel. The management agreement provides for an initial term of 25 years from commencement of operation subject to an extension.
