ITEM NO. 1

ISSAUNCE OF ESOPs

As the shareholders are aware, stock options have long been recognized as an effective instrument to attract and retain the key critical talent in an increasingly competitive environment. This ESOP scheme will help to align the senior management stakeholders to drive the Company Vision and a high-performance culture by being the shareholders and having an opportunity to maximize wealth creation.

The ESOP scheme has been formulated in accordance with the applicable laws.

The ESOP Trust shall be authorized to acquire equity shares of the Company from the secondary market.

4. Requirements of Vesting, period of Vesting and maximum period of Vesting

Vesting may happen in one or more tranches. The detailed terms and conditions for vesting will be governed by the ESOP Plan.

5. Exercise Price or pricing formula

There shall be lock-in-period on shares as mentioned under Securities and Exchange Board of India

(Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021 (‘the SEBI SBEB Regulations”) as amended from time to time.

The ESOP Plan will also permit cashless exercise of options. When a grantee exercises the option, the corresponding shares relating to such option exercised will be sold within a reasonable time on a stock exchange on which the shares are listed and publicly traded at the time of such cashless exercise, and the grantee will be entitled to receive the difference between the selling price and the exercise price for the options exercised by him after deducting taxes payable on exercise/sale, if any, and other amounts, expenses and charges due from him (including that in connection with the sale of shares).

For the purpose of implementing the cashless exercise, the ESOP Committee shall be entitled to specify such procedures and/or mechanisms for exercise of the options as may be necessary and the same shall be binding on the Grantee.
