All cash payments related to the SARs shall be in INR and the SAR value shall be calculated from USD to INR at the noon buying rate in  New York City for cable    transfer in  non-

U.S.currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the exercise date of the  SARs.

 

For purposes of this  Section 2 and Section 5, Fair  Market Value per    share means:

 

	
 
	
(i)
	
If APGL’s shares (the “Shares”) are listed and traded on any stock exchange as of the exercise date, the closing price per share (or the closing bid, if no sales were reported) on the stock exchange where the Shares are traded during the regular trading session (and excluding pre-market and after-hours trading) on the day the subject SARs are exercised; provided that for the Restructuring Event Exercise, it will be the per share price at which the Restructuring Event  is  undertaken.
	
 

 

(ii)If the Shares are not listed and publicly traded on any stock exchange as of the exercise date, the fair market value per Share determined by the “Appraiser” (as defined below) using generally recognized methodologies, including discounted cash flow and  multiples of earnings or EBITDA of comparable companies, and also considering any recent fund raising  or liquidity   event undertaken by APGL.    The Board  shall  retain the  Appraiser to

prepare the fair market valuation report (the “FMV Report”) for each fiscal year after the audited full year financial statements for the subject fiscal year of APGL are finalized and approved by the APGL Board  of  Directors.

 

(c)SAR Exercise Period General Terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if APGL is no longer a publicly traded company, vested exercisable SARs must be exercised within sixty (60) days from the date the Company receives and approves the FMV Report during any fiscal year when the Executive exercises his   SARs.

 

(d)Stock Splits and Dividends. (i) If the Company declares a stock split, the Company will adjust the number of outstanding vested or unvested SARs granted such that there will be no diminution or enlargement in the percentage such SARs represent as a proportion of all outstanding shares prior to the effective date of the stock split. (ii) If the Company declares cash dividends on the Shares, it will grant additional SARs (“Additional SARs”) to the Executive calculated as follows:

 

(A X B)/current FMV = C Where:

A = Amount of cash dividend declared per Share B = Number of outstanding vested  SARs

C = Number of additional  SARs

 

Current FMV = the Fair Market Value per share as of the record date of the cash dividend, which will be deemed the exercise date for purposes of calculating additional SARs to be granted

 

The Additional SARs will vest immediately  upon grant and may be exercised at an exercise price  of zero ($0.00) upon vesting; provided that if APGL is no longer a publicly traded company, outstanding Additional SARs must be exercised within sixty (60) days from the date the Company receives and approves the FMV Report during any fiscal year when the Executive exercises his SARs.

During the Term, for so long as the Executive meets the eligibility requirements of the applicable plan, practice, policy or program of APGL and the Company: (i) except as specifically provided herein, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs of APGL and/or the Company that are made available generally  to other executive officers  of APGL and/or the Company, and (ii) except as specifically provided herein, the Executive and/or the Executive’s family, as the case may be, shall be entitled to participate in, and shall receive all benefits under, all welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs (including APGL and/or the Company’s health insurance and disability plans) provided by APGL and/or the Company that are made available to other executive officers of APGL and/or the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, such plans, practices, policies or programs shall not include any plan, practice, policy or program which provides benefits in the nature of severance or continuation pay). Each of the Company and APGL may change, amend or discontinue any of its employee benefit plans, practices, policies and programs at any time during the Executive’s employment with the Company or APGL, and nothing contained herein will obligate the Company or APGL to institute, maintain or refrain from changing, amending or discontinuing any employee benefit plan,  practice,  policy or  program.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive’s agreement to clawback under this Section 2(v) will not apply to restatements of the Company or APGL’s financial statements due to acts, omissions or events that occurred prior to July 18,   2019.

All cash payments related to the SARs shall be in INR and the SAR value shall be calculated from USD to INR at the noon buying rate in  New York City for cable transfer in  non-U.S. currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the exercise date of the  SARs.

(i)
	
If APGL’s shares (the “Shares”) are listed and traded on any stock exchange as of the exercise date, the closing price per share (or the closing bid, if no sales were reported) on the stock exchange where the Shares are traded during the regular trading session (and excluding pre-market and after-hours trading) on the day the subject SARs are exercised; provided that for the Restructuring Event Exercise, it will be the per share price at which the Restructuring Event  is  undertaken.
	
 

 

	
 
	
(ii)
	
If the Shares are not listed and publicly traded on any stock exchange as of the exercise date, the fair market value per Share determined by the “Appraiser” (as defined below) using generally recognized methodologies, including discounted cash flow and  multiples of earnings or EBITDA of comparable companies, and also considering any recent fund raising or liquidity event undertaken by APGL. The Board shall retain the Appraiser to prepare the fair market valuation report (the “FMV Report”) for each fiscal year after the audited full year financial statements for the subject fiscal year of APGL are finalized and approved by the APGL Board  of  Directors.

(c)SAR Exercise Period General Terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if APGL is no longer a publicly traded company, vested exercisable SARs must be exercised within sixty (60) days from the date the Company receives and approves the FMV Report during any fiscal year when the Executive exercises his   SARs.

 

(d)Stock Splits and Dividends. (i) If the Company declares a stock split, the Company will adjust the number of outstanding vested or unvested SARs granted such that there will be no diminution or enlargement in the percentage such SARs represent as a proportion of all outstanding shares prior to the effective date of the stock split. (ii) If the Company declares cash dividends on the Shares, it will grant additional SARs (“Additional SARs”) to the Executive calculated as follows:

 

(A X B)/current FMV = C Where:

A = Amount of cash dividend declared per Share B = Number of outstanding vested  SARs

C = Number of additional  SARs

 

Current FMV = the Fair Market Value per share as of the record date of the cash dividend, which will be deemed the exercise date for purposes of calculating additional SARs to be granted

 

The Additional SARs will vest immediately  upon grant and may be exercised at an exercise price  of zero ($0.00) upon vesting; provided that if APGL is no longer a publicly traded company, outstanding Additional SARs must be exercised within sixty (60) days from the date the Company receives and approves the FMV Report during any fiscal year when the Executive exercises his SARs.

During the Term, for so long as the Executive meets the eligibility requirements of the applicable plan, practice, policy or program of APGL and the Company: (i) except as specifically provided herein, the Executive shall be entitled to participate in all savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs of APGL and/or the Company that are made available generally  to other executive officers  of APGL and/or the Company, and (ii) except as specifically provided herein, the Executive and/or the Executive’s family, as the case may be, shall be entitled to participate in, and shall receive all benefits under, all welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs (including APGL and/or the Company’s health insurance and disability plans) provided by APGL and/or the Company that are made available to other executive officers of APGL and/or the Company (for the avoidance of doubt, such plans, practices, policies or programs shall not include any plan, practice, policy or program which provides benefits in the nature of severance or continuation pay). Each of the Company and APGL may change, amend or discontinue any of its employee benefit plans, practices, policies and programs at any time during the Executive’s employment with the Company or APGL, and nothing contained herein will obligate the Company or APGL to institute, maintain or refrain from changing, amending or discontinuing any employee benefit plan,  practice,  policy or  program.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Executive’s agreement to clawback under this Section 2(v) will not apply to restatements of the Company or APGL’s financial statements due to acts, omissions or events that occurred prior to July 18,   2019.
