LETTER FROM CEO
Dear Shareholders and Investors:
Below is an update on Thunderbird Resorts, Inc. that summarizes the Group's
performance and progress through December 31, 2016.
1. PERFORMANCE UNDER our previously-stated goals
A. Increase our EBITDA(2): Adjusted EBITDA (after deducting Corporate-level
expenses) increased by $67 thousand or 2.2% as compared to year-end 2015. In
2016, the US dollar continued to gain value against currencies around the globe,
including against our operating currencies, which means that on a local currency
basis our gains were stronger than presented above in USD.
B. Improve our Profit / (Loss): Our Loss from Continuing Operations would have
improved by $197 thousand or 3.6% as compared to year-end 2015 if the Group
would not have registered an impairment loss of $1.6 million related to
probable, realizable sale price of its Tres Rios property in Costa Rica based on
more recent feedback from the market as we pursue a sale of this asset held for
sale.
C. Reduce our borrowings: Gross debt(3) has been reduced to $29.3 million at
year-end December 31, 2016 as compared to $32.1 million at year-end December
31, 2015. Net debt (gross debt less cash and cash equivalents) has been reduced
to $27.8 million at year-end December 31, 2016 as compared to $29.3 million at
year-end December 31, 2015.
2. PERFORMANCE ON ASSET SALES
In our September 21, 2016 Annual General and Special Shareholders' Meeting,
shareholders approved Special Resolutions that, among other items, authorized
the Board of Directors to sell "any or all remaining assets of the Corporation
in such amounts and at such times as determined by the Board of Directors". The
Group has made progress on this goal, and announcements are expected in the
coming quarters.

GROUP OVERVIEW
Below is our consolidated profit / (loss) summary for the twelve months ended
December 31, 2016, as compared with the same period of 2015. In summary, Group
revenue decreased by almost $3.0 million or 7.2% on a USD basis (see "Forex"
note below for information on currency neutral revenue), while adjusted EBITDA
increased by $67 thousand or 2.2% as a result of aggressive cost efficiency at
the country and corporate levels.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Forex: The strengthening of the US dollar versus our operating currencies
continues to have a material impact on our as reported profit / (loss) as
compared to the same period in 2015. Under a currency neutral analysis (in which
the same exchange rate would be applied to both periods so as to remove Forex
swings from the analysis), Group revenue would have decreased by just $763
thousand (2.0% reduction) and adjusted EBITDA would have increased by
approximately $453 thousand (16.9% growth).
Consolidated Loss for the period is $6.8 million, a loss approx. $1.4 million
above 2015 results. This was mainly due to higher net financing costs (2015
benefited from the fact that the Group reduced the debt balance owed to a single
lender, which resulted in a gain upon the release of liabilities on loan
extinguishment), and to the $1.6 million impairment related to the Tres Rios
property in Costa Rica.

RISK MANAGEMENT
For more detail on Risk Factors, see Chapter 8 of the Annual Report.
MANAGEMENT STATEMENT ON "GOING CONCERN"
Management routinely plans future activities including forecasting future cash
flows. Management has reviewed their plan with the Directors and has
collectively formed a judgment that the Group has adequate resources to continue
as a going concern for the foreseeable future, which Management and the
Directors have defined as being at least the next 12 months from the filing of
this 2016 Annual Report. In arriving at this judgment, Management has prepared
the cash flow projections of the Group, which incorporates a 5-year rolling
forecast and detailed cash flow modeling through the current financial year.
Directors have reviewed this information provided by Management and have
considered the information in relation to the financing uncertainties in the
current economic climate, the Group's existing commitments and the financial
resources available to the Group. The expected cash flows have been modeled
based on anticipated revenue and profit streams with debt funding programmed
into the model and reducing over time. The model assumes no new construction
projects during the forecast period. The model assumes a stable regulatory
environment in all countries with existing operations. Sensitivities have been
applied to this model in relation to revenues not achieving anticipated levels.
The Directors have considered the: (i) base of investors and debt lenders
historically available to Thunderbird Resorts, Inc.; (ii) global capital
markets; (iii) limited trading exposures to our local suppliers and retail
customers; (iv) other risks to which the Group is exposed, the most significant
of which is considered to be regulatory risk; (v) sources of Group income,
including management fees charged to and income distributed from its various
operations; (vi) cash generation, debt amortization levels and key debt service
coverage ratios; (vii) fundamental trends of the Group's businesses; (viii)
extraordinary cash inflows and outflows from one-time events forecasted to occur
in the 12-month period following the filing date of this 2016 Annual Report;
(ix) ability to re-amortize and unsecured lenders; (x) level of probability of
refinancing of secured debt; (xi) liquidation of undeveloped and therefore non-
performing real estate assets that have been held for sale; and (xii) level of
interest of third parties in the acquisition of certain operating assets, and
status of genuine progress and probability of closing within the Going Concern
period.
The Directors have also considered certain critical factors that might affect
its continuing operations, as follows:
-- Special Resolution: On September 21, 2016, the Group's shareholders
approved a special resolution that, among other items, authorized the
Board of Directors of the Corporate to sell "any or all remaining assets
of the Corporation in such amounts and at such times as determined by
the Board of Directors." This resolution facilitates the sale of any one
or any combination of assets required to support maintaining of a going
concern by the Group.
-- Sellable Pricing of Assets; Asset Sale Schedules and Re-financing
Scenarios: The Group now has sufficient market feedback, including
offers for certain key assets, which have enabled the Group to
incorporate market-determined pricing into its models; The Group has
evaluated the progress of each transaction that it is working on and has
looked at all reasonable scenarios for the combination and timing of
different transactions in conjunction with sellable pricing.
-- Secured debt Refinancing and Cash Flow: Debt service payments for
secured bank loans in Peru and secured and unsecured loans at the
Corporate-level continue to be a significant part of the Group's
outflow. The Group has invested significant time and effort to refinance
secured debt under longer-term amortizations, and has now received
approval from a Peruvian bank to refinance 100% of its senior secured
Peruvian debt plus fund sufficient working capital to enable the Group
to undertake a restructuring that should save it up to $800 thousand on
a run rate annually in expense by year-end 2017.
-- Corporate Expense and Cash Flow: Corporate expense has decreased
materially in recent years, and continues to decrease. Combined with
debt reduction, achieving the Group's announced Corporate expense
targets (see CEO Letter) is critical to achieving positive cash flow.
Progress in this regard includes preliminary, audited Corporate expense
in Q4 2016 of $475 thousand, or annualized run rate of approximately
$1.9 million, which is a material reduction from the $2.8 million
reported for full year 2016 (and from the $4.1 million reported in
2015).
-- Liquidity and Working Capital: The Group is currently operating with low
levels of reserves and working capital. Certain scenarios in relation to
asset sales will not create working capital, while others will. Selling
all or virtually all Group real estate and reverting cash flow will be
critical to creating a healthy level of working capital reserves for
periods beyond the Going Concern period.
Considering the above, Management and Directors are satisfied that the
consolidated Group has adequate resources to continue as a going concern for at
least the 12 months following the filing date of this report. For these reasons,
Management and Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing
the consolidated financial statements.

Cautionary Notice: Cautionary Notice: The Annual Report referred to in this
release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
securities laws and regulations of various international, federal, and state
jurisdictions. All statements, other than statements of historical fact,
included in the Annual Report, including without limitation, statements
regarding potential revenue and future plans and objectives of Thunderbird are
forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. There can be no
assurances that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results
could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from Thunderbird's
forward-looking statements include competitive pressures, unfavorable changes in
regulatory structures, and general risks associated with business, all of which
are disclosed under the heading "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in Thunderbird's
documents filed from time-to-time with the Euronext Amsterdam and other
regulatory authorities. Included in the Annual Report are certain "non-IFRS
financial measures," which are measures of Thunderbird's historical or estimated
future performance that are different from measures calculated and presented in
accordance with IFRS, within the meaning of applicable Euronext Amsterdam rules,
that are useful to investors. These measures include (i) Property EBITDA
consists of income from operations before depreciation and amortization, write-
downs, reserves and recoveries, project development costs, corporate expenses,
corporate management fees, merger and integration costs, income/(losses) on
interests in non-consolidated affiliates and amortization of intangible assets.
Property EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure we use to evaluate our
country-level operations. (ii) Adjusted EBITDA represents net earnings before
interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity in
earnings of affiliates, minority interests, development costs, and gain on
refinancing and discontinued operations. Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental
financial measure we use to evaluate our overall operations. Property EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental financial measures used by management, as well
as industry analysts, to evaluate our operations. However, Property and Adjusted
EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to income from operations (as
an indicator of our operating performance) or to cash flows from operating
activities (as a measure of liquidity) as determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
