(UPI), a company developing a patented high profit potential new efficient clean energy generation innovation. In addition to the initial investment which could be converted into 1 million UPI shares, IHT also holds 2 Million warrants convertible into an additional 2 million UPI shares, which could result in IHT holding an approximate 25% ownership in UPI in the future.

Hospitality industry results for IHT for the second fiscal quarter of Fiscal 2021, reflected the continued economic and travel industry slowdown caused by the Virus and various travel and lockdown restrictions.

The sense of IHT Management, according to James Wirth President, CEO, and Board Chairman, is that the IHT stock is trading below its true underlying value based on IHT stock being closely held, the company capitalization being small, recent substantial profits coming from asset sales well above low book value, as well as IHT continuing assets held at low book values believed to have substantially higher market value, indicating substantial future profit potential. The Trust strategy of pursuing the highly promising UniGen diversification, and/or a larger reverse merger partner seeking a NYSE American listing is progressing.
