EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
Pursuant to the provisions of Section 102 of the Companies Act, 2013 & Rules framed thereunder
The following Statement sets out all material facts relating to the Special Business proposed in this Postal Ballot Notice:
Item No. 1: Approval Texmaco Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") Scheme 2026
Your Company aims to provide competitive remuneration opportunities to the Key Executives ("eligible employees") of the Company. It believes that equity based compensation plans are effective tool to align employee remuneration to long term performance of the Company. Such a plan can provide an opportunity to Employees to share the growth of the company. Company intends to formulate and implement Texmaco Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") Scheme 2026 to reward the eligible employees of the Company (present or future) for their performance and to motivate them to contribute to the growth and profitability of the Company. The Company views Performance Stock Options as a means that would enable the employees to get a share in the value they create for the Company in future.
Based on the recommendations/approvals of the Nomination and Remuneration Committee ("NRC") and the Board of Directors ("Board") of the Company at their meetings held on 20th March, 2026 and 31st March, 2026, respectively a proposal for adoption of LTIP is being placed before the Members of the Company for approval by way of special resolution in terms of Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021 (SEBI SBEB & SE Regulations).
Long Term Incentive Plan Scheme falls under the category of share-based employee benefit. For the purpose of this scheme, Stock Option means an option granted to an employee, which gives the employee the right, but not an obligation, to purchase or subscribe at a future date, shares of the Company at the face value of Rs. 1/- of the Share subject to certain predefined vesting criteria.
Particulars of disclosures as required under Rule 12 of the Companies (Share Capital and Debentures) Rules, 2014 and Securities and Exchange Board of India (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021 and circulars issued by SEBI are given below:
a) Brief description of the Scheme:
The Company proposes to introduce LTIP with a view to give benefit to the Key Executives ("eligible employees") of the Company (present or future) to strengthen the link between company performance and compensation by giving a share in the value they create for the Company in future. The LTIP contemplates grant of stock options, at the face value but subject to achievement of performance condition(s) as determined from time to time.
Every grant of LTIP shall be followed by vesting. After vesting, the eligible employees earn a right but not an obligation to exercise the vested stock options within the predefined exercise period. The Company shall issue shares upon exercise of vested stock options subject to payment of exercise price and satisfaction of consequential tax obligations.
The Nomination and Remuneration Committee ("NRC") of the Company shall act as Compensation Committee for the supervision of scheme and shall administer the scheme under the guidance of the Board. All questions of interpretation of the scheme shall be determined by NRC as per the terms of the scheme.
b) Total number of options to be offered and granted:
The total number of options to be granted shall not exceed 24,00,000 Options to the eligible employees in one or more tranches, from time to time, which represents approximately 0.60% of the Issued, subscribed and fully paid up Equity Share Capital of the Company on the date of this notice. Each option when exercised shall be converted into one fully paid up equity share of the Company.
In case of any corporate action(s) such as rights issue, bonus issue, merger, change in capital structure and others, if any additional employee stock options of the Company are to be issued to the Employees for the purpose of making a fair and reasonable adjustment to the stock options issued to them, the above ceiling in terms of number of equity shares shall be deemed to be increased in proportion to the additional equity shares issued in the aforesaid corporate action(s).
