Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain  statements on this Website may constitute “forward-looking statements”  within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the PSC and  the US Private  Securities Litigation Reform Act or similar applicable regulation. In  some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words  such as "may," "might," "will," "should," "expect," "plan,"  "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential" or  "continue," and the negative of these terms and other comparable  terminology. Such forward-looking statements which are subject to known  and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us, may include,  but are not limited to, projections of our future financial performance  based on our growth strategies and anticipated trends in our business  and industry, statements concerning ISSE’s plans, objectives,  expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical  or current facts. Forward-looking statements are only predictions based  on ISSE’s current expectations about future events. They involve risks  and uncertainties that could cause actual results, level of activity,  performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or  implied in such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause  ISSE’s results to differ materially from current expectations include,  but are not limited to: ISSE’s ability to implement its strategic  initiatives, economic, political and market conditions and fluctuations,  government and industry regulation, interest rate risk and U.S. and  global competition, and other factors detailed in ISSE’s Annual Report on  Form 10-K and other periodic reports filed with the U.S. Securities and  Exchange Commission and to the PSC. These risks and uncertainties are not exhaustive  and forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions that  are subject to change. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly  changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to  time, and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties, nor  can we assess the impact that these factors will have on our business  or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause  actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ  materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. The  inclusion of such projections in any report should not be regarded as a  representation by ISSE that the projections will prove to be correct.  Neither ISSE nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy  or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. You should  not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future  events. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-looking  statements after the date of any report to conform our prior statements  to actual results or revised expectations and we do not intend to do so.

Choice of Law

By  accessing the services on our Website, you agree to be governed by the  laws of the state of New York. Manama, Dubai, London. The laws of such jurisdiction will govern  all matters relating to this Agreement, and the use, or inability to  use, the services, and that such laws will apply without regard to  principles of conflict of laws. You agree to submit to the exclusive  jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in New York. Manama, Dubai, London. This choice of jurisdiction does not prevent ISSE  from seeking injunctive relief with respect to a violation of  intellectual property rights or confidentiality obligations in any  appropriate jurisdiction. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO  YOUR ACCESS TO, OR USE OF, THIS WEBSITE OR THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE  INSTITUTED ONLY IN A STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN THE CITY NEW YORK, MANAMA, DUBAI AND LONDON. YOU AND WE IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO  SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS. You expressly waive any claim  of improper venue and any claim that such courts are an inconvenient  forum.

Dispute Resolution

Please  read the following section carefully because it requires you to  arbitrate certain disputes and claims with ISSE and limits the manner in  which you can seek relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by  following the instructions set forth below. No class or representative  actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration agreement. In  addition, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a  jury trial.
No Representative Actions.  You and ISSE agree that any past, present, or future dispute arising out  of or related to these Terms of Use is personal to you and ISSE, and  that any dispute will not be brought as a class arbitration, class  action or any other type of representative proceeding.
Arbitration of Disputes.  Except for small claims disputes in which you or ISSE seeks to bring an  individual action in small claims court located in the county of your  billing address or disputes in which you or ISSE seeks injunctive or  other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual  property, you and ISSE waive your rights to a  jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these  Terms of Use or our services resolved in court. Instead, for any  past, present, or future dispute or claim that you have against ISSE or  relating in any way to the services, you agree to first contact ISSE and  attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of  your claim ("Notice") to ISSE by certified mail addressed to West Tower Bahrain Financial Harbour, King Faisal Hwy, Manama, Bahrain., ATTN: General Counsel.
The  Notice must (a) include your name, your residence address, your email  address, your telephone number; (b) a description of the nature and  basis of the claim; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our  notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you  and ISSE cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty  (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit  the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the  limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted  to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration  before one arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings will be held in New York,  Manama, Dubai and London. You and ISSE agree that arbitrations will be held in  accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures ("JAMS Rules"),  including without limitation, provisions regarding consolidation of  claims. The most recent version of the JAMS Rules are available on the JAMS website  and are hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and  agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your  opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS  Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
You  and ISSE agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce, that the  enforceability of this section will be substantively and procedurally  governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the "FAA"),  and that to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the FAA  shall preempt application of state laws regarding arbitration, including  without limitation, provisions of the California Arbitration Act. As  limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will  have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive  decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would  otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine  whether a dispute may be arbitrated. The arbitrator may not preside over  any type of class or representative proceeding, however, in the event  that five or more claims in arbitration are initiated which assert the  same or similar factual allegations, or raise the same or similar legal  issues, we may request that the claims be consolidated for resolution  consistent with Rule 6 of the Streamlined Rules, and you agree to  consolidation of your claim with the claims of other claimants asserting  the same or similar factual allegations, or whose claims raise the same  or similar legal issues. In such a consolidated proceeding, a single  arbitrator shall be appointed to resolve all consolidated claims, who  shall resolve common issues of law and fact and apply such rulings  consistently to the consolidated claims.
The  arbitration will allow for the discovery or exchange of non-privileged  information relevant to the dispute. The arbitrator, ISSE, and you will  maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments  and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered,  prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the  dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make  appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law  provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to  the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the  arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court  application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial  challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent  that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.
You  and ISSE agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the  filing fee and ISSE will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any  arbitration initiated by ISSE, ISSE will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You  and ISSE agree that the state or federal courts of the State of New York, Manama, Dubai and London, New York have exclusive  jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration  award.
Any  claim arising out of or related to these Terms of Use or the use of our  services must be filed within one year after such claim arose;  otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and ISSE will not have the right to assert the claim.
You  have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the  date you first accepted the terms of this section by emailing ISSE at legal-notices@iraic.group.  In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full  name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding  arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to  resolve disputes in accordance with this section.
If  any portion of this section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful  for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be  severed from this Agreement; (b) severance of the unenforceable or  unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of  this section or the parties' ability to compel arbitration of any  remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this section; and  (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class,  collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be  litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in  arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall  be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration.  Further, if any part of this section is found to prohibit an individual  claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no  effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of  arbitration, and the remainder of this section will be enforceable. If  you are a consumer, the provisions of this section will be modified to  the extent necessary to conform to the JAMS Consumer Arbitration Minimum Standards.
