Example:

I work for the agency which is based in Delhi.

The clause 'which is based in Delhi' describes the location of the agency thus performing the function of a a post modifier to the head word i.e. the agency.

The selected the girl who spoke confidently during the interview.

The customer who rushed into the shop was panting.
