      paid on a final (or annual) basis and paid on an interim (or semi-annual)

      available for distribution the Parties hereto shall procure that the Auditors
      shall certify whether such profits are available or not and the amount thereof
      (if any). In giving such certificate the Auditors shall act as experts and
      not
      arbitrators and their determination shall be binding on the Parties
      hereto.

                prescribed in Schedule 4 hereto (the “Affiliate
                Deed of Adherence”).

                Adherence and file the same with the Company.  Provided however
                that nothing contained herein shall require a Shareholder to execute
                an
                Affiliate Deed of Adherence in relation to a Transfer of Shares in
                contravention of this Agreement.

                executed

    7.           PRE
      EMPTION RIGHTS

    


    Except
      in
      the case of Transfer of Shares to a Permitted Transferee, if any Shareholder,
      (the“Seller”) wishes to sell all or part of
      its Shares (“Transfer Shares”) to any person other than to a
      Permitted Transferee (“Proposed Transferee”), it shall first
      make an offer to the Shareholder(s) (other than the Seller)
      (“Offeree”) (equal to their respective Pro-Rata Share of the
      Transfer Shares) stipulating the terms and conditions of the offer
(“Transfer Notice”), which Transfer Notice shall include the
      Transfer Terms (as defined below).

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
 

    
      	
              (a)    
                  

            	
              The
                Transfer Notice shall inter alia provide: (i) the sale price (on
                a 'per
                Share’ basis) (“Offer Price”) (ii) the number of Shares
                proposed to be sold by the Seller (the “Transfer Shares”)
                (iii) the terms of the
                Transfer (collectively with the Offer Price the
                “Transfer Terms”). A Transfer Notice shall be
                irrevocable. The Parties agree that the Offer Price shall only be
                a cash
                price.

            


    

    


    
      	
              (b)     
                 

            	
              If
                a Seller issues a Transfer Notice, the Offeree shall have the right
                (but
                not the obligation), exercisable within thirty (30) days from receipt
                of
                the Transfer Notice (“Offer Period”),
                to:

            


    

    


    
      	
               

            	
              (i)

            	
              accept
                the Transfer Terms, by issuing a letter of acceptance (“Acceptance
                Notice”) to the Seller, in which case, Clause 7(c) shall apply; and
                

            


    

    


    
      	
               

            	
              (ii)

            	
              issue
                a Tag Along Notice in accordance with Clause 8 below and accordingly
                Clause 8 shall apply. 

            


    

    


    
      	
               

            	
              (c)

            	
              If
                the Acceptance Notice is issued the Offeree shall be obliged to purchase
                all the Transfer Shares and the sale and purchase of the Transfer
                Shares
                in favour of the Offeree shall be completed within thirty (30) days
                from
                the date of issue of the Acceptance Notice by the Offeree. At such
                completion, the Seller shall deliver to the Offeree certificates
                and other
                documents representing its title to the Transfer Shares, accompanied
                by
                duly executed and valid instruments of transfer. Such Transfer Shares
                shall be free and clear of any Encumbrance (other than Encumbrances
                specifically permitted hereunder), and the Seller shall so represent
                and
                warrant and shall further represent and warrant that it is the legal
                and
                beneficial owner of such Transfer Shares. The Offeree shall at such
                completion deliver payment in full of the Offer Price in accordance
                with
                the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice. In the event that the
                Offeree
                nominates an Affiliate or a nominee for the purpose of purchasing
                the
                Transfer Shares or part thereof, it shall cause such Affiliate or
                nominee
                to execute a Deed of Adherence in the format contained in Schedule
                3 (“Transferee Deed of
                Adherence”). At such
                completion, all of the Parties to the transaction shall execute such
                additional documents as may be necessary or appropriate to effect
                the sale
                of the Transfer Shares to the Offeree.  Any stamp duty payable
                on the transfer of any Transfer Shares shall be borne and paid by
                the
                Offeree.

            


    

    


    
      	
               

            	
              (d)

            	
              The
                failure of an Offeree to give the Acceptance Notice or the Tag Along
                Notice within the Offer Period shall be deemed to be a waiver of
                such
                Offeree's right of first refusal or its tag along
                right.

            


    

    


    
      	
               

            	
              (e)

            	
              If
                no Acceptance Notice or Tag Along Notice, as the case may be, is

                thereto) Transferee Deed of Adherence being lodged with it. The other
                Shareholders undertake to execute such Transferee Deed of Adherence,
                as
                may be required in order to give effect to such Transfer of the Transfer

                shall require a Shareholder to execute a Transferee Deed of Adherence
                where the Transfer is in contravention of the provisions of this

                under
                Clause 10(c)(ii) the Non Defaulting Shareholders shall have an option
                but

                Default Shares on a proportionate basis, to be calculated in accordance
                with the formula specified under Clause 10(k). The Defaulting Shareholder
                shall be obligated to sell the Default Shares to the Non-Defaulting
                Shareholders who exercise their option (the “Opting Non-Default
                Shareholders”) either to purchase the Default Shares by issuing
                the Default Purchase Notice or to the Proposed Transferee identified
                in
                the Default Purchase Notice by an Opting Non-Default
                Shareholder.

                by
                the Opting Non-Defaulting Shareholder (the “Default Option
                Settlement Date”) in a written notice, which date shall be no
                less than seven days after the date of such notice provided that
                such

                day of
                the Default Option Period. On the Default Option Settlement Date,
                the
                Defaulting Shareholder shall either sell the Default Shares to the
                Opting
                Non-Default Shareholders or to the Proposed Transferee depending
                upon the
                option exercised by the Opting Non-Defaulting Shareholder in accordance
                with Clause 10.

            


    

    


    
      	
              (f)

            	
              On

                deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Opting Non-Default
                Shareholders/Proposed Transferee the
                following:

            


    

    


    (i)           share

      executed and valid share transfer forms and such other instruments necessary
      to
      transfer the Default Shares to the Opting Non-Default Shareholders.

    


    
      	
              (g)

            	
              The

                payable
                to the Defaulting Shareholder. The Opting Non-Defaulting Shareholders
                further covenant that in the event that they opt to purchase the
                Defaulting Shares through an Affiliate,  they shall cause such
                Affiliate to execute an Affiliate Deed of Adherence or if through
                a third
                party, they shall cause such third party to execute a Transferee
                Deed of
                Adherence as the case may be and the Company shall not register such
                a
                Transfer unless a validly executed Affiliate Deed of Adherence or
                the
                Transferee Deed of Adherence is lodged with
                it.

                have any rights hereunder. 

            


    

    


    
      	
              (j)

            	
              In
                the event that a transferee nominated by an Opting Non-Default Shareholder
                fails to perform its obligations to complete the sale of the Default
                Shares the person nominating such transferee shall be liable to complete
                such Transfer.

            


    

    


    
      	
              (k)

              The
                FMV Price shall be determined on the basis
                of:

            


    

    


    (i)           a
      whole company valuation at a price reflecting the net asset value of the
      ownership structure, using the fair market value of the Company Assets and
      further accounting for all other assets and liabilities of the ownership
      structure in an audited closing balance sheet,

    


    (ii)           an
      assumption that the existing arrangements would continue on a “going concern”
basis; and

    


    (iii)           specifically

      interest.

                repute to
                determine the fair market value of the Company Assets.  Company
                Assets’ in this Clause means all the assets of the Company. The terms of
                the appointment of the Valuer shall be decided by

                reasonable for the legitimate protection of the business and goodwill
                of

                or provisions, as the case may be, by virtue of which the restrictions
                contained in this Clause were limited as provided hereinabove, the

                would
                otherwise give the right to appeal the decisions of the Arbitrator
                so that
                there shall be no appeal to any court of Law for the award of the
                Arbitrator, except a Party shall not challenge or resist any enforcement
                action taken by any other Party in any court of Law in whose favour
                an
                award of the Arbitrator was

    22.       
        MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

    


    22.1       
       Reservation of Rights

    


    No
      forbearance, indulgence or relaxation or inaction by any Party at any time
      to
      require performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in any
      way
      affect, diminish or prejudice the right of such Party to require performance
      of
      that provision, and any waiver or acquiescence by any Party of any breach of
      any
      of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or
      acquiescence of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provisions, a waiver
      of any right under or arising out of this Agreement or acquiescence to or
      recognition of rights other than that expressly stipulated in this
      Agreement.

    


    22.2        Cumulative
      Rights

    


    All
      remedies of either Party under this Agreement whether provided herein or
      conferred by statute, civil law, common law, custom or trade usage, are
      cumulative and not alternative and may be enforced successively or
      concurrently.

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    
 

    22.3 
             Partial
      Invalidity

    


    If
      any
      provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or
      circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable to any extent, the remainder
      of
      this Agreement and the application of such provision to persons or circumstances
      other than those as to which it is held invalid or unenforceable shall not
      be
      affected thereby, and each provision of this Agreement shall be valid and
      enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any invalid or unenforceable
      provision of this Agreement shall be replaced with a provision, which is valid
      and enforceable and most nearly reflects the original intent of the
      unenforceable provision. Provided however, if said provision is fundamental
      provision of this Agreement or forms part of the consideration or object of
      this
      Agreement, the provision of this Clause shall not apply.

    


    22.4  
            Amendments

    


    No
      modification or amendment of this Agreement and no waiver of any of the terms
      or
      conditions hereof shall be valid or binding unless made in writing and duly
      executed by all the Parties.

    


    22.5   
           Assignment

    


    This
      Agreement and the rights and liabilities hereunder shall bind and inure to
      the
      benefit of the respective successors of the Parties hereto, but no Party shall
      assign or transfer any of its rights and liabilities hereunder to any other
      Person without the prior written consent of the other Parties which will not
      be
      unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding anything stated above, IGC shall be
      entitled to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates
      or ultimate parent company or their Affiliates, without the consent of the
      other
      Parties. However IGC must inform the company of such assignment.

    


    22.6        Entire
      Agreement

    


    As
      on the
      date of this Agreement, this Agreement contains the whole agreement between
      the
      Parties relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and
      supersedes all previous agreements between the Parties or their Affiliates
      relating to these transactions.

    


    22.7         Relationship

    


    None
      of
      the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a partnership
      between the Parties hereto and no Party shall have any authority to bind the
      other Party otherwise than under this Agreement or shall be deemed to be the
      agent of the other in any way.

    


    22.8        Governing
      law

    


    This
      Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of
      India.

    


    22.9  
            Costs

     

    Each
      Party shall bear its own expenses incurred in preparing this Agreement and
      the
      stamp duty, legal  and costs for US GAAP audit  shall be
      borne equally between the Parties.

    


    22.10       Force
      Majeure

    


    No
      Party
      shall be liable to the other if, and to the extent, that the performance or
      delay in performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement is
      prevented, restricted, delayed or interfered with due to circumstances beyond
      the reasonable control of such Party, including but not limited to, Government
      legislations, fires, floods, explosions, epidemics, accidents, acts of God,
      wars, riots, strikes, lockouts, or other concerted acts of workmen, acts of
      Government and/or shortages of materials. The Party claiming an event of
force majeure shall promptly notify the other Parties in writing, and
      provide full particulars of the cause or event and the date of first occurrence
      thereof, as soon as possible after the event and also keep the other Parties
      informed of any further developments. The Party so affected shall use its best
      efforts to remove the cause of non-performance, and the Parties shall resume
      performance hereunder with the utmost dispatch when such cause is
      removed.

    


    22.11      Severance

    


    Any
      provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable shall be
      ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability, without
      affecting in any way the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
      provisions hereof. Should any provision of this Agreement be or become
      ineffective for reasons beyond the control of the Parties, the Parties shall
      use
      reasonable efforts to agree upon a new provision which shall as nearly as
      possible have the same commercial effect as the inefficient
      provision.

              22.12.1

            	
              The
                Parties agree that if the understanding contemplated in this Agreement
                cannot be completed in the manner set forth herein, then the Parties
                shall
                use reasonable endeavours to enter into such understanding that (a)
                would
                result in a substantially similar outcome and (b) do not materially
                prejudice any of the Parties.  Each of the Parties further
                agrees that, during any such negotiations, it shall refrain from
                initiating any legal actions against the other Parties;
                and

                Party agrees to perform (or procure the performance of) all further

                and things, and execute and deliver (or procure the execution and
                delivery
                of) such further documents, as may be required by law or as the other
                Parties may reasonably require, whether on or after the date of this
                Agreement, to implement and/or give effect to this Agreement and
                the
                understanding contemplated by it and for the purpose of vesting in
                IGC the
                full benefit of the assets, rights and benefits to be transferred
                to IGC
                under this Agreement.

            


    

     

    


    22.13 
           Public announcements

    


    Neither
      the Promoters nor the Company shall make any disclosure or announcements about
      the subject matter of this Agreement to any Person without the prior written
      consent of IGC. IGC shall be entitled to make any disclosures or announcements
      about the subject matter of this Agreement.

    


    22.14 
           Execution in
      Counterparts

    


    This
      Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall
      be
      deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and
      the same instrument.

    


    22.15

    The
      persons signing this Agreement on behalf of the Parties represent and covenant

              22.16  

            	
              Survival.
                In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Clause
                10,
                notwithstanding anything mentioned herein, Clauses which by their
                nature
                survive termination shall survive the termination of this
                Agreement.

            


    

    


    
      	
              22.17  

            	
              Consent
                to Specific Performance. The Parties declare that it is
                impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered
                by a
                Party by reason of the failure by any other Party to perform any
                of the
                obligations hereunder.  Therefore, if any Party shall institute
                any action or proceeding to seek specific performance or enforcement
                of
                the provisions hereof any Party against whom such action or proceeding
                is
                brought hereby waives any claim or defence therein that the other
                Party
                has an adequate remedy at Law. 

            


    

    


    
      	
              22.18  

            	
              Covenants
                Reasonable.  The Parties agree that, having regard to
                all the circumstances, the covenants contained herein are reasonable
                and
                necessary for the protection of the Parties and their
                Affiliates.  If any such covenant is held to be void as going
                beyond what is reasonable in all the circumstances, but would be
                valid if
                amended as to scope or duration or both, the covenant will apply
                with such
                minimum modifications regarding its scope and duration as may be
                necessary
                to make it valid and effective

            


    

    


    
      	
              22.19  

            	
              No
                Implied Representation. Each of the Parties acknowledges that, in
                agreeing to enter into this Agreement, it has not relied on any
                representation, warranty, collateral contract or other assurance
                except
                those set out in this Agreement and the documents referred to in
                made by
                or on behalf of the other Party before the signature of this
                Agreement.

              Without
                prejudice The Parties agree that the rights and remedies of the
                Parties hereunder are in addition to their rights at Law or
