It gets them from router1, via iBGP. By default, BGP doesn't change the
next-hop when passing routes in iBGP. Router2 should learn the route to
ISP1 Router through your IGP, so you shouldn't lose connectivity because
of this. If there's some reason why this route can't be passed in your
IGP, you should configure the iBGP neighbor sessions with the
"next-hop-self" option.
