Such notice of meeting must contain an agenda of the meeting, together with the copies of all documents relevant for matters to be discussed and the issues to be voted upon at the meeting vide Regulation 21(3)(iii). Obviously, resolution plans are \u201cmatters to be discussed\u201d at such meetings, and the erstwhile Board of Directors are \u201cparticipants\u201d who will discuss these issues.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court also noticed that under Regulation 38(1)(a), a resolution plan shall include a statement as to how it has dealt with the interest of all stakeholders, and under sub-clause 3(a), a resolution plan shall demonstrate that it addresses the cause of default. It, hence, said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThis Regulation also, therefore, recognizes the vital interest of the erstwhile Board of Directors in a resolution plan together with the cause of default. It is here that the erstwhile directors can represent to the committee of creditors that the cause of default is not due to the erstwhile management, but due to other factors which may be beyond their control, which have led to non-payment of the debt.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court also rejected the contention that a director <em>simplicitor<\/em> would have the right to get documents as against a director who is a financial creditor. It explained:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe proviso to Section 21(2) clarifies that a director who is also a financial creditor who is a related party of the corporate debtor shall not have any right of representation, participation, or voting in a meeting of the committee of creditors. Directors, simplicitor, are not the subject matter of the proviso to Section 21(2), but only directors who are related parties of the corporate debtor. It is only such persons who do not have any right of representation, participation, or voting in a meeting of the committee of creditors.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court, hence, directed that the appellants be given copies of all resolution plans submitted to the CoC within a period of two weeks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[Vijay Kumar Jain v.
