agreement with Raymond James Ltd. to sell, on a private placement basis, 775,200
trust units ("Units") at a price of $12.90 per Unit, for gross proceeds to IBI

over-allotment option ("Over-allotment Option"), exercisable in whole or in part

million. The Units will be offered pursuant to prospectus and registration
exemptions in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, as well as in the
United States under applicable private placement exemptions. The Financing is
expected to close on or about May 28, 2009 and is subject to regulatory
approvals. Concurrent with the Financing, IBI Group Management Partnership will
purchase approximately $3 million in Units of the Fund at $12.90 per Unit, which
will result in the Partnership's ownership interest in IBI being approximately
26%.


IBI intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering for general corporate
purposes, including repayment of debt.
