Special Business Resolutions
The postal ballot covers two interconnected special resolutions related to the company's employee stock option scheme.
Item 1: ESOP Extension Authorization
The first resolution seeks approval to extend the benefits of Zaggle Employee Stock Option Scheme 2022 to present and future employees of subsidiary and associate companies, both in India and outside India. This amendment aims to create a sense of ownership and collaboration among employees across the group companies while supporting the company's growth trajectory.
Item 2: Stock Option Grants to Subsidiary Employees
The second resolution requests specific approval for granting employee stock options to eligible employees of subsidiary and associate companies under the existing scheme framework. This resolution complies with Regulation 6(3) of the SEBI (Share Based Employee Benefits and Sweat Equity) Regulations, 2021, which requires separate shareholder approval for such grants.
ESOP Scheme Details
The company's Employee Stock Option Scheme 2022 contains comprehensive provisions for employee participation and benefit distribution.
| Scheme Parameter | Current Status/Details |
|---|---|
| Total Options Approved | 46,10,936 options |
| Options Already Granted | 33,03,450 options |
| Maximum Vesting Period | 48 months from grant date |
| Vesting Structure | 40% time-based, 60% performance-linked |
| Maximum Per Employee | 1% of issued capital (excluding conversions and warrants) |
The scheme incorporates both time-based and performance-linked vesting criteria, with 40% of granted ESOPs vesting over four years in equal amounts and 60% vesting based on performance evaluation by the Compensation Committee.
Proposed Amendments
The company proposes several key amendments to the existing ESOP scheme to accommodate subsidiary and associate company employees. These changes include updating the definition of "Employee" to encompass workers from group companies, adding definitions for "Associate" and expanding "Subsidiary" definitions, and modifying grant procedures to align with current regulatory requirements.
The amendments also update the registered office address and remove certain post-listing conditions that are no longer applicable. The Compensation Committee will retain discretionary authority to determine vesting periods, conditions, and the proportion between time-based and performance-based vesting for different employee categories.
Rationale and Benefits
The company emphasizes that this expansion aligns with its objective to retain talent and motivate employees across the group structure. As Zaggle continues to grow through subsidiaries and associates, the amendment aims to create competitive remuneration opportunities and foster employee engagement throughout the organization.
The proposed changes are designed to not prejudice current option grantees while extending benefits to a broader employee base. The maximum number of options granted to both company and subsidiary employees will not exceed the total options approved under the existing scheme.
Voting Process
Shareholders can participate in the voting process through the e-voting platform provided by KFin Technologies Limited. The company has detailed specific login procedures for different categories of shareholders, including those holding securities in demat mode with NSDL or CDSL, and those holding physical shares.
Institutional shareholders must submit relevant board resolutions and authorization letters to the scrutinizer. The voting results will be communicated to stock exchanges and made available on the company's website and KFin Technologies' platform.
