DIRECTORS’ REPORT (xii) Rights on death or ill-health If the Relevant Employee dies or ceases to be employed by our Company or its affiliates due to ill health, the Relevant Options that are vested as at the date of cessation may be exercised. (xiii) Rights on a compromise or arrangement If the court sanctions a compromise or arrangement between the Company and its Shareholders, provided an option is not to be exercised under the paragraph headed “Rights on Reorganisation or Merger” in this section below, the option can be exercised up to 20 days before and during the period of six months commencing on the date when the court sanctions the compromise or arrangement. (xiv) Rights on winding up If a notice is given by our Company to its Shareholders to convene a general meeting for the purposes of considering or approving a resolution to voluntarily wind-up our Company, to the extent that an option is vested, it may be exercised at any time to the extent that it is vested, before the relevant resolution has been passed or defeated or the meeting adjourned indefinitely, conditionally on the resolution being passed. If our Company is wound up by the court, to the extent that an option is vested and exercise is permissible by law, it may be exercised within one month of the winding-up order and will then lapse. This sub-clause does not apply if the winding-up is for the purpose of a reconstruction or amalgamation. (xv) Rights on reorganisation or merger If there is a variation in equity share capital of our Company or upon any consolidation, amalgamation or merger of our Company, the Board may adjust the terms of the Tier 1 ESOP or the option price for outstanding options with effect from the date of the relevant event, so that the value of the shares subject to the options is equal to the value of those shares immediately before the occurrence of the event; and the exercise price payable to exercise an option will be the same as that immediately before the occurrence of the event. No such adjustment can reduce the option price to less than the nominal value of a Share. R E A C H I N G N E W H E I G H T S 110
