The Company envisages to improve its performance and its overall market capitalisation with help of better results. The employees of the Company and its subsidiary(ies), who have been holding critical positions within the organisation are key to achieve the same. It is important to motivate and retain them to be able to attain the planned performance of the Company. ESOPs have always worked as an important tool in retention, motivation and remuneration/ wealth creation of the employee. Therefore, it would be imperative in the current circumstances to start a new PVR ESOP 2022 for the eligible employees for the overall benefit of the organisation and the key employees.

Equity based compensation is considered to be an integral part of employee compensation across sectors which enables alignment of personal goals of the employees with organizational objectives. Your Company believes that equity based compensation plans are an effective tool to reward the talents working with your Company.

With a view to motivate the key work force seeking their contribution to the corporate growth, to create an employee ownership culture and to retain them for ensuring sustained growth, your Company intends to implement an employee stock option plan namely ‘PVR Employee Stock Option Plan 2022’ (“PVR ESOP 2022”/ “Plan”) seeking to cover eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiary(ies).

In terms of Section 62(1)(b) of the Companies Act, 2013 read with Regulation 6 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share Based Employee Benefits & Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021 (“SEBI SBEB & SE”), issuance of Shares to Employees of the Company and its subsidiary(ies) under an Employee Stock Options Plan requires an approval of the existing Members by way of Special Resolution.

The Special Resolution set out at Item No. 1 is seeking your approval for the formulation and implementation of the PVR ESOP 2022 and issuance of Equity Shares thereunder.

Further, as per Regulation 6(3)(c) of SEBI SBEB & SE, approval of the members through a separate resolution is required to be obtained in case the Company wants to grant Options to the Employees of Subsidiary Company, in India or outside India, of the Company.
