The amendment is intended to cover only future grants to be made and would come into effect only after approval by Members and will not cover grants already made.

 

As per the Regulations, any variation to the terms of the Scheme requires the approval of Members by way of a special resolution. There are no other changes to the existing terms of the Scheme. None of the Directors or Key Managerial Personnel of the Bank including their relatives are, in any way, concerned or interested, financially or otherwise, in the proposed resolution except to the extent of grant of stock options to them ,if any, under the said Scheme.

Item No.18

 

Section 42 of the Companies Act, 2013 and its underlying rules viz. Companies (Prospectus and Allotment of Securities) Rules, 2014 (including any modification(s) or re-enactment(s) thereof) provide that a Company shall make a private placement of its securities only if the proposed offer of securities or invitation to subscribe to securities has been previously approved by the Members of the Company, by a Special Resolution, for each of the Offers or Invitations. It

 

17

 

 

 

 

further provides that the explanatory statement annexed to the notice for the general meeting shall disclose the basis or justification for the price (including premium, if any) at which the offer or invitation is being made. It also provides that in case of offer or invitation for non-convertible debentures, it shall be sufficient if the Company passes a prior special resolution once in a year for all the offers or invitation for such debentures during the year.

 

At the Annual General Meeting held on June 30, 2017, the Members had approved a limit of Rs. 25,000 crore for borrowings by way of securities including but not limited to bonds and non-convertible debentures on private placement basis. The Bank has borrowed Rs. 5,555.00 crores (Rupees Five thousand five hundred fifty five crores only) by way of issue of non-convertible debentures (NCDs) on private placement basis since the last AGM. Considering the same, the Bank has assessed its fund requirements and it is proposed that the borrowing limits for the purpose of Section 42 read with the rules relating to this Section for borrowing by way of non-convertible securities including but not limited to bonds and NCDs be retained at the same level of Rs. 25,000 crore (Rupees Twenty five thousand crores only). This would form part of the overall borrowing limits under Section 180(1)(c) of the Companies Act, 2013 of Rs. 250,000 crore (Rupees two hundred and fifty thousand crore) approved by the Members at the AGM held on June 30, 2014. The resolution under Section 42 will be valid for a period of one year from the date of passing this resolution. The pricing of the non- convertible securities including but not limited to bonds and non-convertible debentures (NCDs) depends primarily upon the rates prevailing for risk free instruments, rates on other competing instruments of similar rating and tenor in the domestic market, investors’ appetite for such instruments and investor regulations which enable investments in such instruments. Accordingly, during the validity of this resolution, the Bank proposes to issue non-convertible securities including but not limited to bonds and non-convertible debentures (NCDs) by way of private placement at up to 300 basis points (bps) above the rates prevailing for risk free instruments as represented by the respective tenor rupee sovereign bonds for issuances in rupee market. The pricing for each of the issuance/program would be approved by the Board or a Committee of Board.

 

The Directors recommend the Resolution at Item No. 18 of the accompanying Notice for approval of the Members of the Bank.

 

None of the Directors, Key Managerial Personnel of the Bank and their relatives are in any way concerned or interested, financially or otherwise in the passing of the Resolution at Item No. 18 of the accompanying Notice.

Notice to American Depositary Shares (“ADS”) Holders

 

Notice to ADS Holders

 

The attached is being provided by ICICI Bank Limited (the “Bank”) FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY and is not to be construed, and does not purport to be, an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.

 

Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, the Depositary (the “Depositary”), has not reviewed the enclosed, and expressly disclaims any responsibility for, and does not make any recommendation with respect to, the Bank or the matters and/or transactions described or referred to in the enclosed documentation. Furthermore, neither the Depositary nor any of its officers, employees, directors, agents or affiliates controls, is responsible for, endorses, adopts, or guarantees the accuracy or completeness of any information provided at the Bank's request or otherwise made available by the Bank and none of them are liable or responsible for any information contained therein.

 

Registered Holders have no voting rights with respect to the Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by their American Depositary Shares. The instructions of Registered Holders shall not be obtained with respect to the voting rights attached to the Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by their respective ADSs. In accordance with the Governmental Approval, the Depositary is required, at the direction of the Board of Directors of the Bank (the “Board”), to vote as directed by the Board.

 

The matters referred to in the attached are being made with respect to the securities of an Indian company. The proposed action is subject to the disclosure requirements of India, which are different from those of the United States.

 

It may be difficult for you to enforce your rights and any claim you may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws, since the issuer is located in India, and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of India. You may not be able to sue an Indian company or its officers or directors in an Indian court for violations of the U.S. securities laws. It may be difficult to compel an Indian company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court's judgment.

 

Capitalized terms used in this notice but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Deposit Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2000 (as amended) between the Bank, the Depositary and all Registered Holders and Beneficial Owners from time to time of Receipts issued thereunder.
