 In accordance with Section 4.07 of the Deposit Agreement (the Deposit
Agreement) between Infosys Technologies Ltd. (the Company) and Deutsche Bank
Trust Company Americas as Depositary (the Depositary), Holders of Infosys
Technologies Ltd. American Depositary Shares (ADSs) are hereby notified of the
Companys Annual General Meeting. A copy of the Notice of Meeting from the
Company, which includes the agenda for such Meeting, is enclosed. Holders of Infosys ADSs at the close of business of the above-specified ADS
record will be entitled, subject to any applicable provision of Indian law, of
the Deposited Securities or of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of
the Company, to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting
rights, if any, pertaining to the amount of Shares or other Deposited
Securities represented by their respective American Depositary Shares. Upon
receipt of the enclosed Voting Instruction Form, duly signed, by the
above-stated deadline, the Depositary shall notify such voting instruction to
the Chairman of the Company, or such other director that the Chairman may
designate, and appoint the Chairman or that other person designated by the
Chairman as representative of the Depositary and the Registered Holders to
attend such meeting and vote the Deposited Securities in the direction so
instructed by such Registered Holder. (Beneficial owners of ADSs who hold their
ADSs through and received materials from a bank or broker nominee should
complete a voting instruction in accordance with the instructions from that
bank or broker nominee). If the Depositary does not receive instructions from a Registered Holder,
such Registered Holder may under certain circumstances be deemed to have
instructed the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated
by the Company to vote such Deposited Securities. Upon the written request of a Registered Holder on such record date, received
on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose, the
Depositary shall endeavor insofar as is practicable and permitted under the
applicable provisions of law and of the Memorandum and Articles of Association
governing Deposited Securities of the Company to vote or cause to be voted the
amount of Deposited Securities represented by such American Depositary Shares
evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with the instructions set forth in such
request. For the purposes of Section 4.07 of the Deposit Agreement, in the event that
the Depositary receives express instructions from Registered Holders to demand
a poll with respect to any matter to be voted on by

Holders, the Depositary may notify the Chairman or a person designated by the
Chairman of such instructions and request the Chairman or such designee to
demand a poll with respect to such matters and the Company agrees that the
Chairman or such designee will make their reasonable best efforts to demand a
poll at the meeting at which such matters are to be voted on and to vote such
Shares in accordance with such Registered Holders instructions; provided,
however, that prior to any demand of a poll or request to demand poll by the
Depositary upon the terms set forth herein, the Company shall, at its expense,
deliver to the Depositary an opinion of Indian counsel, reasonably satisfactory
to the Depositary, stating that such action is in conformity with all
applicable laws and regulations and that the demand for a poll by the
Depositary or a person designated by the Depositary will not expose the
Depositary to any liability to any person. The Depositary shall not have any
obligation to demand a poll or request the demand of a poll if the Company
shall not have delivered to the Depositary the local counsel Opinion set forth
in this paragraph. Under Indian law voting of Shares is by show of hands unless a poll is demanded
by a member or members present in person or by proxy holding at least one-tenth
of the total Shares entitled to vote on the resolution or by those holding paid
up capital of at least Rs. 50,000. A proxy may not vote except in a poll. The Depositary agrees not to, and shall ensure that the Custodian and each of
their nominees does not, vote, attempt to exercise the right to vote, or in any
way make use of, for purposes of establishing a quorum or otherwise, the Shares
or other Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares
evidenced by a Receipt other than in accordance with such instructions from the
Registered Holder, or as provided below. The Depositary may not itself exercise
any voting discretion over any Shares. If the Depositary does not receive
instructions from any Registered Holder with respect to any of the Deposited
Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced by such
Registered Holders Receipts on or before the date established by the
Depositary for such purpose, such Registered Holder shall be deemed, and the
Depositary shall deem such Registered Holder, to have instructed the Depositary
to give discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company to vote such
Deposited Securities; provided that (x) no such discretionary proxy shall be
given with respect to any matter as to which the Company informs the Depositary
(and the Company agrees to provide such information as promptly as practicable
in writing) that (i) the Company does not wish such proxy given, (ii)
substantial opposition exists or (iii) the rights of the holders of Shares will
be adversely affected and (y) the Depositary shall not have any obligation to
give such discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company if the
Company shall not have delivered to the Depositary the local counsel opinion
and representation letter set forth in the next paragraph. Prior to each request for a discretionary proxy upon the terms set forth
herein, the Company shall, at its own expense, deliver to the Depositary (aa)
an opinion of Indian counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary,
stating that such action is in conformity with all applicable laws and
regulations (bb) a representation and indemnity letter from the Company
(executed by a senior officer of the Company) which (i) designates the person
to whom any discretionary proxy should be given, (ii) confirms that the Company
wishes such discretionary proxy to be given and (iii) certifies that the
Company has not and shall not request the discretionary proxy to be given as to
any matter as to which substantial opposition exists or which may adversely
affect the rights of holders of Shares. Shares which have been
withdrawn from the depositary facility and transferred on the Companys Register of Members to a person other than the Depositary or
its nominee may be voted by such persons. However, Registered Holders who wish
to withdraw Shares to vote at a shareholders meeting may not receive sufficient
advance notice of shareholders meetings to enable them to make such withdrawal
of the Shares in time to vote at the meeting. In addition once withdrawn from
the depositary facility, Shares may not be redeposited. For more information, contact:Beverly George
