In this paper, we prove that every graphical hypersurface in a prequantization bundle over a symplectic manifold $M$, pinched between two circle bundles whose ratio of radii is less than $\sqrt{2}$ carries either one short simple periodic orbit or carries at least cuplength $(M)+1$ simple periodic Reeb orbits.

Keywords: Periodic Reeb orbits, cuplength estimate, prequantization bundle, moduli space for a transfer map.
