    Changes to the Board

    The members of the company at the Extra-ordinary General Meeting held on

July 30, 2014 approved the appointment of Dr. Vishal Sikka as the Chief

Executive Officer and Managing Director effective August 1, 2014.

    Mr. Narayana Murthy will cease to be Non-Executive Chairman effective

October 10, 2014. He indicated that in line with the company's high corporate

governance standards and to avoid any perceived conflicts, it would not be

appropriate for him to be the Chairman Emeritus of Infosys. The Board accepted

Mr. Murthy's decision and sincerely thanked him for his vision, leadership and

guidance in making Infosys a globally respected company.

    Mr. S. Gopalakrishnan will cease to be the Non-Executive Vice Chairman

effective October 10, 2014. The Board expressed its deep sense of appreciation

for the services rendered by him during his tenure at Infosys.

    Mr. K.V. Kamath has been elected as the Chairman of the Board effective

October 11, 2014.

    The company has been classifying its founders, Narayana Murthy, Nandan

Nilekani, S. Gopalakrishnan, S. D. Shibulal and K Dinesh along with their

immediate family members as promoters/promoter group of the company in

applicable disclosures with the stock exchanges and other regulatory

authorities.

    With the last two founders, Narayana Murthy and S Gopalakrishnan, remitting

office, the founders have neither association with the company nor exercise any

control over the affairs of the company after the current date. The founders

have therefore requested the company to seek appropriate classification of

their revised status. The company is in the process of seeking appropriate

regulatory guidance on the same.

    Infosys Foundation

    Infosys has pledged INR 254 crore ($42 million) towards Corporate Social

Responsibility through the Infosys Foundation - its philanthropic arm. Infosys

and its subsidiaries donated $ 13 million and $ 21 million to Infosys

Foundation for the quarter and half-year ended September 30, 2014.

    The Infosys Foundation executes several programs aimed at alleviating

hunger, promoting education, improving health, assisting rural development,

supporting arts and helping the destitute.

    This quarter, Infosys Foundation constituted a corpus of INR 33 crore ($ 5

million) for the Chennai Mathematical Institute. This corpus will be used to

enhance faculty compensation and support fellowship requirements for research

students.

    The Foundation also launched Spark-IT, a three-month program to enhance the

skill levels of unemployed engineering graduates in the country. It has

committed INR 9 crore ($ 1 million) for this program which will help train

1,800 graduates in the fiscal year 2015.
