alignment of interests of the non-executive Directors with the interests of shareholders, a non-executive Director
is required to hold shares in the Company worth at least one year of his basic retainer fee or the total number of
shares awarded under the above policy, whichever is lower, at all times during his Board tenure. For the Chairman,
the shares are required to be held for at least two years from the date of award, and the two-year moratorium shall
