Neither the OFS nor this Notice constitutes an offer to sell or an invitation or solicitation of an offer to buy or sell to the public or to any other person or class of persons requiring any prospectus or offer document to be issued, submitted or filed with any regulatory authority within India or outside India.

The OFS is being carried out in accordance with the SEBI OFS Circulars and is subject to the circular, rules and regulations issued by the Stock Exchanges from time to time. There will be no "public offer" of the Sale Shares in India under the Companies Act, 2013 together with the rules made thereunder, as amended ("Companies Act"). There is no public offer of the Sale Shares in any other jurisdiction as well.

Accordingly, no documents have been or will be prepared, registered or submitted or filed for approval as a 'prospectus' or an 'offer document' with the Registrar of Companies in India and/or SEBI under applicable law in India, including the Companies Act, the SEBI (Issue of Capital and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2018, as amended, the Stock Exchanges or any other regulatory or listing authority in India or abroad, and no such document will be circulated or distributed to any person in any jurisdiction, including in India. The Bidders acknowledge and agree that any buy order or bid is being made solely on the basis of publicly available information and any information available with SEBI, Stock Exchanges, Company's website or any other public domain, together with the information contained in this Notice and that it has not relied on any investigation that the Seller's Brokers or any other person on their behalf may have conducted with respect to the Sale Shares or the Company.

The Sale Shares have not been and will not be registered under: (a) the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or under the securities laws of any state of the United States, and may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and in accordance with any applicable state securities laws or (b) any other securities law of Other Jurisdictions. The Sale Shares are being offered and sold (1) in the United States only to purchasers reasonably believed to be "qualified institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) ("OIBs" and each a "QIB") pursuant to Rule 144A pursuant to the Securities Act ("Rule 144A") or another available exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act, and (2) outside the United States in offshore transactions in reliance upon Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S").
