*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	Mr. Perkins is filing this form in his capacity as a director of Tornabuoni Limited ("Tornabuoni"). Tornabuoni was an entity that oversaw the trustee of the Thyssen Bornemisza Continuity Trust (the "Continuity Trust"). On May 14, 2007, the Continuity Trust was reorganized (the "Reorganization") and its assets were distributed to a number of newly created trusts. Upon completion of the Reorganization, the Continuity Trust was dissolved, and Tornabuoni is therefore no longer involved in the oversight of its trustee.
(2)	Each share of Class B common stock is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into one share of Class A common stock. In addition, each share of Class B common stock converts automatically, without any action by the holder, into one share of Class A common stock upon the earlier of: (1) any transfer, whether or not for value, except for (a) transfers to any trust, so long as such trust is the sole owner, directly or indirectly, of TBG Holdings NV and the principal beneficiary of such trust is Georg Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza;
(3)	and (b) transfers to any corporate entities, partnerships or other similar entities, so long as the Thyssen-Bornemisza Continuity Trust or any trust described in (a) above directly or indirectly wholly-owns such entities; (2) the death of Georg Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza; (3) November 16, 2009; and (4) the date on which holders of Class B common stock do not own at least 22% of the aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock then outstanding, as determined by the Board of Directors of IHS Inc.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
