IHS Inc. Amends Credit Facility

Business Wire, Sept 14, 2007

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- IHS Inc. (NYSE: IHS) announced today that it has amended and restated its unsecured, revolving credit facility from $125 million to $385 million as of Sept. 7, 2007. Terms are for five years and allow for an increase up to a maximum of $500 million.

IHS was able to obtain attractive market rates based on the company's strong financial condition. The bank group expands from three to eight banks, including a number of global banks to supplement the company's growing global banking needs.

"We are very pleased to have expanded and extended our credit facility at favorable terms despite a difficult credit market," said Michael J. Sullivan, IHS Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "The amended facility provides us with even more flexibility and capacity as we continue to pursue profitable growth opportunities in the same disciplined way that we've historically deployed our capital."

IHS will address any inquiries about the facility when it holds its regularly scheduled conference call to release financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2007 on Sept. 20, 2007.
