 Talvivaara Mining Company annual results review for the year ended 31 December
                                      2014

         Talvivaara Sotkamo Ltd filed for bankruptcy on 6 November 2014
  Creditors' voting procedure for approval of Talvivaara's draft restructuring
                               programme ongoing


Key events of 2014

  * Following the bankruptcy of Talvivaara Sotkamo Ltd ("Talvivaara Sotkamo") on
    6 November 2014, Talvivaara Mining Company Plc ("Talvivaara" or the"Company") has not had control over the operations at the Sotkamo mine and
    is therefore no longer in a position to continue reporting on the status and
    development of the Sotkamo mining operations
  * On 6 November 2014, trading of Talvivaara's shares on the Helsinki Stock
    Exchange was suspended. The suspension of trading continues on the date of
    publication of the Company's financial statements 30 April 2015
  * The Company's financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December
    2014 have been prepared on a basis other than going concern. The chosen
    reporting basis results from the existence of material uncertainty that
    casts significant doubt upon the Company's ability to realise its assets and
    discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business and from the lack
    of visibility on the Company's operational environment twelve months beyond
    the date of reporting
  * Following the bankruptcy of Talvivaara Sotkamo, Talvivaara has financed and
    continues to finance its operations by providing administrative and
    technical services and by leasing certain critical machinery and equipment
    to the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo under agreements entered into
    by the Company and the bankruptcy estate on 19 November 2014
  * On 19 December 2014, Talvivaara placed its dormant subsidiaries in
    liquidation and converted all its receivables from these companies into
    equity while the subsidiaries wrote off all their receivables from the
    bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo. After these actions and the sale of
    all the shares of the Company's overseas subsidiary on 30 December 2014, the
    Company's plan to become the single reporting entity was completed
  * Following the decision by the Annual General Meeting of the Company on 12
    June 2014, the listing of the Company's shares on the Official List of the
    United Kingdom Listing Authority was cancelled with effect from (and
    including) 14 July 2014
  * On 1 April 2014, the Company as a guarantor and Talvivaara Sotkamo entered
    into a Loan and Streaming Holiday Agreement with Nyrstar Sales and Marketing
    AG, under which Nyrstar made available to Talvivaara Sotkamo a loan facility
    of up to EUR 20 million, enabling the Talvivaara group's process to identify
    potential investor(s) to participate in a long-term, overall financial
    solution for the Talvivaara group
  * Reported operating loss EUR 702.6 million


Key events of 2015 to date

  * Talvivaara is continuing its operations for the time being with the target
    of securing sufficient financing to participate in the acquisition of the
    mining operations from the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo or
    securing a different financial and/or operative arrangement that will secure
    the continuance of the Company's eligible business
  * The supplemented draft restructuring programme of the Company was submitted
    by the Administrator to the District Court of Espoo on 13 March 2015,
    proposing a haircut of 99% for the unsecured restructuring debts and leaving
    1% of the amount of such debt to be repaid. The restructuring debts secured
    by business mortgage would not be cut and no payments would be made on debts
    with lowest priority. The draft restructuring programme does not include a
    provision on a duty to make supplementary payments
  * The confirmation and entry into force of the draft restructuring programme
    requires the fulfilment of a number of conditions, including Talvivaara
    negotiating an agreement with the party that purchases Talvivaara Sotkamo
    mining operations based on which Talvivaara can obtain sufficient cash flow
    to cover the costs of its business operations and has the right to make an
    investment sufficient to acquire a significant minority stake in the Sotkamo
    operations, or Talvivaara completes a different financial and/or operative
    arrangement that will secure the continuance of the Company's eligible
    business
  * Following the termination notice by the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara
    Sotkamo on 30 March 2015, Nyrstar contested the right of the bankruptcy
    estate to terminate the Zinc Streaming Agreement or the Streaming Holiday
    Agreement. Simultaneously, Nyrstar sent a notice to the Company, reserving
    their right to issue a demand to the Company as a guarantor for a payment of
    all sums due by Talvivaara Sotkamo under the Zinc Streaming Agreement and
    the Streaming Holiday Agreement, should the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara
    Sotkamo fail to do so. Due to previous intercreditor arrangements, the
    extent of the Company's guarantee liability towards Nyrstar remains unclear
  * On 14 April 2015, the District Court of Espoo initiated a creditors' voting
    procedure on the draft restructuring programme. The approval of the draft
    restructuring programme requires express support from the necessary number
    of creditors. The voting period expires on 6 May 2015



CEO  Pekka  Perä  comments:  "Despite  of  all  hard work, technical success and
intense  negotiations by the Talvivaara team, the Company had no option but file
the  operating subsidiary Talvivaara Sotkamo Oy in bankruptcy in November 2014.
As  a  result,  the  nature  of  the  Company's  business changed radically from
operating  a world class mine to renting operational assets and selling services
to the bankruptcy estate. The re-structuring process had been started in the end
of  the year  2013 in the  Company and  in the  operating subsidiary, but due to
complexity  of the deal and the weakness  of commodities market, the Company and
the  Administrator  did  not  find  a  solution  in time to continue funding the
operation.

In  the new  situation, after  the operating  company's bankruptcy,  the Company
signed  Lease and Services  Contracts with the  bankruptcy estate. The contracts
ensured that the bankruptcy estate has access to all the knowledge and necessary
operating  assets of the Company at its disposal and that the Company is able to
continue   investigating  the  best  possible  solution  for  its  shareholders,
creditors and employees.

One  of the biggest  hurdles for new  investors was the environmental permitting
situation  as the existing permits did  not allow environmentally safe operation
of  the mine. The new environmental  permit decision received in April 2014 made
the situation for re-financing of the operation even worse. All year the Company
expected  to receive a  resolution for appeals  submitted in June 2013 regarding
the  water release permits from Administrative  Court only to be informed, after
almost  a year and  a half of  waiting, that the  Court will combine the appeals
with appeals submitted for the new environmental permit granted 12 months later.
This seriously undermined the Company's possibilities for re-financing.

Talvivaara  was under unprecedented public  attention throughout the period, and
as  before, the total lack  of relativity was the  striking element in the media
coverage.  No  doubt,  this  perverted  publicity  had  significant  effects  on
investors, authorities and politicians.

Those  familiar  with  the  operation  had  no  doubt  on  the  viability of the
operation,  and the success in the metals plant operation proved that previously
encountered  ramp up-problems  had been  solved. The  achieved utilisation rates
clearly  above 90% demonstrated  the learning  curve. Over  the reporting period
until  the operating company's bankruptcy, the  water management was carried out
effectively and responsibly under very challenging conditions.

Regardless  of all the  hardship during the  year 2014, the personnel once again
proved  their  perseverance  and  their  commitment  to  Talvivaara  for which I
sincerely  thank them. The Board of Directors and the management have been under
enormous  pressure  from  every  direction,  but  they still have rationally and
tenaciously  pursued  the  best  long  term  solution  for  all  the  Talvivaara
stakeholders. Many of the key components required for a viable future are not in
the hands of Company, but all the paths have been and will be investigated."

Talvivaara's annual results review 2014

Introduction
Following the bankruptcy of Talvivaara Mining Company Plc's ("Talvivaara" or the"Company") operating subsidiary Talvivaara Sotkamo Ltd ("Talvivaara Sotkamo") on
6 November  2014, trading of Talvivaara's shares  on the Helsinki Stock Exchange
was  suspended.  The  suspension  of  trading  continues  as  at the date of the
publication of the Company's financial statements 30 April 2015.

Talvivaara  has been in corporate reorganisation throughout the review period of
1 January  2014 - 31 December 2014. The corporate reorganisation continues as at
the date of publication of the Company's financial statements 30 April 2015.

Talvivaara's financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2014
have  been prepared on  a basis other  than going concern.  As described in more
detail in the financial statements 2014, the chosen reporting basis results from
the  existence of  material uncertainty  that casts  significant doubt  upon the
Company's  ability to  realise its  assets and  discharge its liabilities in the
normal  course of  business and  from the  lack of  visibility on  the Company's
operational environment twelve months beyond the date of reporting.

Currently,  Talvivaara finances  its operations  by providing administrative and
technical  services and by  leasing certain critical  machinery and equipment to
the  bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo and for the time being continues to
pursue  its target of securing sufficient  financing to participate, as a member
of a consortium, in the acquisition of the mining operations from the bankruptcy
estate  of Talvivaara Sotkamo or securing a different financial and/or operative
arrangement that will secure the continuance of the Company's eligible business.

Review of Operations
Following  the bankruptcy  of Talvivaara  Sotkamo on 6 November 2014, Talvivaara
has  not had control over the operations at the Sotkamo mine and is therefore no
longer  in a position to continue reporting on the status and development of the
Sotkamo  mining operations, including information on production levels and water
management.

Prior to the bankruptcy, the activities of the Talvivaara group comprised of the
operations  at the Talvivaara  mine primarily carried  out by Talvivaara Sotkamo
and  a broad  range of  support functions  and expert  services provided  by the
Company.  Throughout its existence, the Company has employed the majority of the
group's  managerial resources and  technical experts and  therefore provided the
operating   subsidiary  with  e.g.  administrative,  financial,  communications,
technical,  laboratory,  commercial,  legal  and sustainability services against
agreed  fees. In addition, the Company owns  a lime and limestone handling plant
and reception station, which are critical for the production and water treatment
processes  of the  mine, and  which the  Company has  been leasing to Talvivaara
Sotkamo since 2009.

In  order to minimise any environmental risks, assist the running of the ongoing
operations  and to facilitate the sales process of the mining assets, Talvivaara
and  the bankruptcy  estate of  Talvivaara Sotkamo  agreed that the services and
equipment  leases provided  by the  Company shall  continue. To this effect, the
parties  entered  on  19 November  2014 into  the  Administration and Laboratory
Services  Agreement and  the Agreement  on Lease  of Lime and Limestone Handling
Plant  and  Reception  Station.  The  agreements  detail the Company's personnel
resources  and equipment that are available and critical for the environmentally
and  occupationally safe  operations at  the Sotkamo  mine and  state the agreed
pricing  for the services provided. Invoicing of personnel resources is based on
hourly  rates, expenses incurred in the provision of the services are charged at
cost  added with an administrative margin, and for the limestone plant a monthly
rent  has  been  agreed.  The  new  agreements  are  largely  in line with those
previously  in place between  Talvivaara and Talvivaara  Sotkamo with only minor
modifications  resulting  from  the  changed  circumstances following Talvivaara
Sotkamo's bankruptcy.

On  19 December  2014, Talvivaara  decided  to  place  its  dormant subsidiaries
Talvivaara  Exploration Oy, Talvivaara Infrastructure  Oy, Bream Lake Energy Oy,
and  Talvivaara Management Oy in liquidation. Prior to the decision to liquidate
these   subsidiaries,  Talvivaara  converted  all  its  receivables  from  these
companies  into equity and the subsidiaries wrote off all their receivables from
the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo. In addition, Talvivaara sold on 30
December  2014 all the shares  of its subsidiary  incorporated under the laws of
Sweden,  Hyena Holding AB,  to a third  party independent of  the management and
significant  shareholders against a nominal purchase  price basing on the amount
of  liquid assets of  Hyena Holding AB  at the time  of transaction. Placing the
subsidiaries in liquidation and the conveyance of the shares in Hyena Holding AB
was  in line with the  Company's plan to simplify  the group structure and leave
the  Company  as  the  single  reporting  entity.  Consequently,  the  Company's
financial  statements  for  the  year  ended  31 December  2014, which have been
prepared  in  accordance  with  IFRS,  encompass  solely  the Company and do not
include consolidated statements of the former Talvivaara group.

The  Annual General Meeting of the Company resolved on 12 June 2014 to authorise
the  Board of  Directors to  cancel the  listing of  the Company's shares on the
official  list maintained by the UK Financial Services Authority and remove such
shares  from trading on  the main market  for listed securities  of London Stock
Exchange  plc. The  listing of  the shares  on the  Official List  of the United
Kingdom Listing Authority was cancelled with effect from (and including) 14 July
2014.

Financial review
Financial result
The operating loss for 2014 was EUR (702.6) million (2013: EUR (697.8) million),
consisting  mainly of  impairment charges,  write-offs and  provisions resulting
from  the  bankruptcy  of  Talvivaara  Sotkamo  on  6 November 2014 and from the
application  of the  non-going concern  principle. An  impairment charge  of EUR
(470.6)  on subsidiary investments  was made at  the year-end 2014. In addition,
the  provision  for  the  potential  203.4 EUR million termination sum guarantee
liability  towards Nyrstar  as well  as the  write-off of the Company's 24.9 EUR
million  unsecured  receivable  from  Talvivaara  Sotkamo  were  booked in other
operating expenses.

Finance  income  for  2014 was  EUR  37.5 million  (2013:  EUR 40.9 million) and
consisted  mainly of interests on deposits and receivables. Finance costs of EUR
(109.7) million (2013: EUR (48) million) resulted mainly from recognition of the
guarantee  liability for  the debts  owed by  Talvivaara Sotkamo to Finnvera and
Nystar as well as from interest and related financing expenses on borrowings.

The  loss for 2014 amounted  to EUR (774.9)  million (2013: EUR (709.1) million)
reflecting  the impairment charges, write-offs and provisions resulting from the
bankruptcy  of  Talvivaara  Sotkamo  and  from  the application of the non-going
concern principle. Earnings per share was EUR (0.41) (2013: EUR (0.50)).

Liquidity
As  at  1 January  2014, the  Talvivaara  group  had  cash  and cash equivalents
amounting  to EUR  5.9 million. With  the existing  cash, income  generated from
nickel  and cobalt sales to Norilsk Nickel Harjavalta Oy and the loan drawn down
from  Nyrstar Sales and Marketing AG ("Nyrstar") upon zinc deliveries, the group
was  able to continue operations until  6 November 2014. On that date, following
intensive  financing discussions with key  stakeholders, potential new investors
and  the Republic of Finland, Talvivaara  was informed that short term financing
required  to meet Talvivaara  Sotkamo's immediate working  capital needs was not
available  in the required  time frame. As  a result, the  Board of Directors of
Talvivaara Sotkamo decided to file Talvivaara Sotkamo for bankruptcy. The filing
was  done  jointly  with  the  Administrator  of  Talvivaara Sotkamo's corporate
reorganisation proceedings and later the same day approved by the District Court
of Espoo.

Subsequent  to Talvivaara Sotkamo's  bankruptcy, the Company  declared EUR 31.5
million,  including EUR  5.6 million in  value added  tax ("VAT"),  of its sales
receivables from Talvivaara Sotkamo as credit losses and accordingly claimed and
received a refund of the associated VAT.

To   date,   the   Company  finances  its  day-to-day  operations  by  providing
administrative  and technical services  and the lease  of critical machinery and
equipment to the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo.

As  at 31 December 2014, the  Company's cash and  cash equivalents amount to EUR
5.3 million.

Financing
On  1 April 2014, the Company as a guarantor and Talvivaara Sotkamo entered into
a  Loan and Streaming Holiday Agreement (the "Streaming Holiday Agreement') with
Nyrstar  Sales  and  Marketing  AG  ("Nyrstar").  Under  the  Streaming  Holiday
Agreement, Nyrstar made available to Talvivaara Sotkamo a loan facility of up to
EUR 20 million. Nyrstar made the facility available in several tranches with the
amount  of each advance calculated with reference to a corresponding delivery by
Talvivaara  Sotkamo of  zinc in  concentrate under  the original  Zinc Streaming
Agreement of February 2010.

In  the short term,  the Agreement enabled  the continuation of  the Company and
Talvivaara   Sotkamo's   corporate   reorganisation  and  the  process,  whereby
Talvivaara  group explored the  options of identifying  potential investor(s) to
participate in a long-term, overall financial solution for the Talvivaara group.

Nyrstar's obligation to extend financing under the loan facility was to cease at
the  earlier  of  the  aggregate  amount  outstanding including accrued interest
exceeding  EUR 20 million or  the commencement of  a streaming holiday. Prior to
the  bankruptcy of  Talvivaara Sotkamo,  Talvivaara Sotkamo  had drawn  down EUR
12.8 million  of the Nyrstar  loan facility (including  interest through October
2014).

Equity
Following  Talvivaara  Sotkamo's  bankruptcy,  the  Company  wrote off fully its
receivables  from  and  the  shares  held  in  Talvivaara  Sotkamo. As a result,
Talvivaara  lost its equity, which has  been acknowledged by the Company's Board
of  Directors  and  notified  to  the  trade register. Talvivaara recognised its
weakening  financial  position  already  in  November  2013 and took measures to
mitigate   this   by   applying  for  corporate  reorganisation.  The  corporate
reorganisation proceedings of the Company were commenced on 29 November 2013 and
its  continuation was approved by the  Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of
the Company on 12 June 2014.

Furthermore,  even if the  Company's restructuring debts  were cut in accordance
with  the Administrator's final draft restructuring programme, the assets of the
Company would still be less than the aggregate amount of the Company's remaining
liabilities  following  the  99-percent-haircut  of  the unsecured restructuring
debts  or even following a 100% conversion  of the unsecured restructuring debts
into  equity of the Company. More information on the negative equity is provided
under Note 1.

Provisions and other items recognised based on restructuring programme
Under  the  Loan  and  Streaming  Holiday  Agreement,  the  Company has issued a
guarantee  for  the  termination  sum  amounting  to  203.4 million  euros  that
Talvivaara  Sotkamo would have to pay to  Nyrstar due to a premature termination
of  the zinc  streaming agreement  between the  companies. The  liability of the
guarantor  in respect of the termination sum  would, if applicable, fall due for
payment on the date falling 12 months after the date on which Talvivaara Sotkamo
was  placed in bankruptcy. As at  31 December 2014, the Zinc Streaming Agreement
had  not been terminated, despite the bankruptcy of Talvivaara Sotkamo. However,
as  explained in more detail in paragraphs  "Reporting basis - other than going-
concern" and "Events after the review period", the Company has provided the full
amount as a provision on the balance sheet based on uncertainties related to the
treatment of the Company's guarantee obligation.

In  addition, the Company  has issued a  floating charge security  for the loans
drawn  from  Finnvera  by  Talvivaara  Sotkamo,  amounting in aggregate to 58.7
million euros, including accrued interest. The aggregated amount consists of two
parts:  50.7 million euros the Company has guaranteed  as its own debt, and 8.0
million  euros the Company has secured with a floating charge security issued as
a   third-party-security.  In  the  Administrator's  final  draft  restructuring
programme,  liability  of  the  Company  under  the  floating charge security to
Finnvera  has been valued to 3.4 million euros.  This is a liability referred to
in  section 3(3) of the Restructuring  of Enterprises Act, and  it is subject to
the  same rules as  the secured debt  of the Company.  As Finnvera's 8.0 million
euros claim is not the Company's own debt, it has not been taken into account as
restructuring  debt. However, this liability has  been taken into account in the
calculation  of the amount  of secured and  business mortgage debt, and payments
will  be made  on it  in the  same manner  as on  the Company's debts secured by
collateral and business mortgages. However, due to the applied non-going concern
principle,  the  Company  has  also  recognised  the full 8.0 million euros as a
liability on the balance sheet.

Off-balance sheet and contingent liabilities
Talvivaara  Sotkamo has largely covered the environmental bond requirement under
the  current environmental permit by a  guarantee insurance provided by Atradius
Credit Insurance NV ("Atradius"). The coverage amounts to EUR 31.9 million as at
the  date  of  the  publication  of  the Company's financial statements 30 April
2015. According  to the environmental permit, the  required bond is to be placed
to  cover the cost of the restoration of waste areas (gypsum ponds, heap areas),
which  is anticipated to take place partly during the life of the mine, as waste
areas  are filled to  their maximum levels,  and partly as  part of the eventual
closure of the mine. In the event such restoration activities took place without
Talvivaara Sotkamo carrying the cost, the expenses would initially be covered by
Atradius.  However,  eventually  Atradius  would  claim  the  cost back from the
Company,  which  has  given  counter-indemnity  for  such costs to Atradius. The
guaranteed  liability  is  part  of  the  Company's  restructuring  debt and any
payments  that  fall  due  under  the  guarantee  are  finally determined in the
Company's restructuring programme and repaid according to the authorized payment
schedule.

Furthermore,  even if the  Company's restructuring debts  were cut in accordance
with  the Administrator's final draft restructuring programme, the assets of the
Company would still be less than the aggregate amount of the Company's remaining
liabilities  following  the  99-percent-haircut  of  the unsecured restructuring
debts  or even following a 100% conversion  of the unsecured restructuring debts
into  equity of the  Company. The exact  amount of the  negative funding balance
will  depend, among others, on the extent to which unsecured restructuring debts
are  converted into equity  of the Company,  and on the  aggregate amount of the
Company's  other liabilities not  subject to restructuring  at the date of entry
into  force of  the restructuring  programme. More  information on  the negative
equity is provided under Note 1.

Assets
On  the statement of financial position  as at 31 December 2014, property, plant
and  equipment totalled 5.0 million euros  (31 December 2013: 8.9 million euros)
after  an impairment charge of EUR  3.1 million. Intangible assets totalled 0.6
million  euros (31 December 2013: 2.4 million  euros) after an impairment charge
of 1.7 million euros.

Shares  with  a  value  of  7.2 million  euros  in  Majakkavoima Oy and Katternö
Kärnkraft Ab, companies holding shares in Fennovoima nuclear power company, were
fully  written down as under  the reporting basis other  than going concern, the
Company does not recognise any value in such holdings with a view to its current
business operations.

Value of the buildings located in the Talvivaara Sotkamo site were fully written
down  as the Company lost  control of the asset  due to the real estate mortgage
given by Talvivaara Sotkamo as a result of its bankruptcy.

Following the bankruptcy of Talvivaara Sotkamo, the Company wrote down its sales
receivables of approximately EUR 24.9 million from Talvivaara Sotkamo.

On  31 December  2014, cash  and  cash  equivalents totalled EUR 5.3 million (31
December 2013: EUR 4.7 million).

Corporate reorganisation
The  Company and Talvivaara Sotkamo applied  for corporate reorganisation on 15
November  2013 by filing related applications with  the District Court of Espoo,
Finland.  The District Court of Espoo took  the decision to commence a corporate
reorganisation  process in  respect of  the Company  on 29 November  2013 and in
respect  of Talvivaara Sotkamo on 17 December  2013. The District Court of Espoo
appointed Mr. Pekka Jaatinen, Attorney-at-Law, from Castrèn & Snellman Attorneys
to  act as the Administrator in respect  of the corporate reorganisation of both
the Company and Talvivaara Sotkamo.

In   reorganisation   proceedings  governed  by  the  Finnish  Restructuring  of
Enterprises  Act (47/1993,  as amended),  both the  business operations  and the
debts  of a  company may  be reorganised  and restructured.  As a result of such
reorganisation,  a  company  can  either  continue  its  operations  or,  if the
reorganisation fails, initiate bankruptcy proceedings.

The  central  task  of  the  Administrator  is  to  draw  up  a  proposal  for a
reorganisation  plan in  collaboration with  the various  parties within  a time
limit   set   by  the  District  Court  of  Espoo.  An  important  part  of  the
reorganisation plan is the payment arrangements for debts. In the reorganisation
plan,  debts  may  be  restructured  in  any  of the following ways: (i) through
changing  the payment schedule; (ii) applying  payments made by the debtor first
in  amortisation of  the principal  amount of  the debt  and only  thereafter as
payments  of other  debt related  costs, such  as interest;  (iii) reducing debt
related  costs, including the interest rate; and (iv) reducing the amount of the
unpaid debt. The commencement of a reorganisation process does not result in all
the  debts of the relevant  debtor becoming due and  payable. Any debts that are
not  considered restructuring  debts are  to be  repaid in accordance with their
original terms.

The  reports on the financial status of  the Company and Talvivaara Sotkamo were
completed  by  the  Administrator  of  the  corporate reorganisation on 14 April
2014. According  to the Administrator, an executable restructuring programme can
be  set up for both companies, provided that financing solutions for the interim
period and for the longer term are achieved.

Proposals  for both companies' respective reorganisation plans were submitted by
the  Administrator on 30 September 2014. Under the draft restructuring programme
of  Talvivaara  Sotkamo,  a  one-off  payment  was  suggested  to be made to the
creditors with the possibility to make supplementary payments, while a customary
eight-year restructuring programme would be drafted for Talvivaara. The payments
to  creditors would take  place during 2017-2022 so  that the creditors would be
paid  10% of the capital cut in accordance with the programme during each of the
first  two years  (2017-2018) and 20% thereafter  (2019-2022). The secured debts
and leasing debts of Talvivaara would be paid off according to the same schedule
as  the unsecured debts.  The Administrator estimated  that the part  of all the
secured  restructuring debt of Talvivaara Sotkamo (in aggregate EUR 130 million)
that  constitutes  financing  debt  is  EUR  53 million  after  the deduction of
liquidation  costs. The  Administrator proposed  that EUR  21.9 million of these
secured  debts would be payable upon  execution of the realisation restructuring
process.  The secured  creditors and  the parties  to the  sale and  purchase of
Talvivaara  Sotkamo's  business  would  have  to  agree  separately  on  how the
remaining  balance of  the secured  financing debt  (EUR 31.1 million)  would be
paid.

The Administrator estimated that the amount of debt secured by a floating charge
issued  by Talvivaara is EUR 7.5 million and the amount of debt secured by other
securities  would be EUR 3 million after the deduction of liquidation costs. The
Administrator proposed that the capital of unsecured debts of Talvivaara Sotkamo
(in  aggregate not less  than EUR 956 million)  and Talvivaara (in aggregate EUR
478 million)  be cut by 99% for Talvivaara Sotkamo and by 97% for Talvivaara. No
payments would be made on debts with lowest priority of either of the companies.
Finally,  the  draft  restructuring  programmes  proposed  that  the  holders of
unsecured debt of Talvivaara Sotkamo and Talvivaara would be entitled to receive
supplementary   payments   under   certain   circumstances.  The  duty  to  make
supplementary payments would remain valid for eight years.

The  District Court of Espoo gave on 2 October 2014 an interim decision relating
to  the  draft  restructuring  programmes  of Talvivaara and Talvivaara Sotkamo,
ruling  that the processing  of the draft  restructuring programmes filed by the
Administrator  on 30 September 2014 shall  be continued, and  that the creditors
shall  present  their  claims  regarding  the  receivables  listed  in the draft
restructuring   programmes   to   the   Administrator  by  24 October  2014. The
Administrator shall in its turn supplement the draft restructuring programmes by
2 December  2014, and the creditors  will thereafter have  a possibility to give
their statement on the draft programmes by 19 December 2014.

On  28 November  2014, the  District  Court  extended  the  deadline for the re-
submission of the restructuring programme proposal until 30 January 2015.

Reporting basis - other than going concern
Talvivaara's financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2014
have  been prepared on  a basis other  than going concern.  The chosen reporting
basis  results from the existence of material uncertainty that casts significant
doubt  upon  the  Company's  ability  to  realise  its  assets and discharge its
liabilities  in the normal course of business and from the lack of visibility on
the   Company's  operational  environment  twelve  months  beyond  the  date  of
reporting.  However, Talvivaara currently finances  its day-to-day operations by
providing  administrative and technical services and  the lease of machinery and
equipment  critical  to  the  bankruptcy  estate  of  Talvivaara  Sotkamo. These
contractual  arrangements have  helped the  Company to  discharge all of its new
liabilities  as and  when they  fell due.  Therefore, the  requisite adjustments
resulting  from the chosen reporting basis  have, where applicable, been made in
the  2014 financial statements to  the carrying amounts  of the Company's assets
and liabilities, but no reserve has been made in the Company's balance sheet for
the costs relating to winding down of the operations.

Talvivaara's ability to revise its reporting basis and to regain its status as a
going  concern is dependent, among other things, on the successful completion of
the  Company's corporate reorganisation  proceedings, which requires  that (i) a
requisite   number   of   the   Company's   creditors  vote  in  favour  of  the
Administrator's  draft restructuring programme  submitted on 13 March 2015, (ii)
Talvivaara  succeeds in completing an arrangement that will secure the necessary
cash  flow  for  the  Company  to  discharge  all  of  its  liabilities  and the
continuance  of the Company's  eligible business, and  (iii) the shareholders of
Talvivaara  approve the possibility for  a conversion of unsecured restructuring
debts  into shares in the Company as  well as the financial arrangement required
to  discharge the remaining restructuring debts  and for covering other possible
liabilities  to the extent the Company's other funds are not sufficient for such
purpose.  As of the  date of the  Company's financial statements 29 April 2015,
there  is  no  certainty  as  to  whether  the  Company  can  fulfil all the set
requirements within the given time frame.

Talvivaara  Sotkamo has drawn down  EUR 12.8 million (including interest through
October  2014), in  loans  from  Nyrstar  under  the Streaming Holiday Agreement
between  Talvivaara,  Talvivaara  Sotkamo  and  Nyrstar.  Upon the bankruptcy of
Talvivaara  Sotkamo, Nyrstar  is entitled  to declare  that all  or part  of the
loans,  together  with  accrued  interest,  be  payable  on demand by Talvivaara
Sotkamo  or Talvivaara,  in its  capacity as  the guarantor.  If Nyrstar  was to
demand  immediate  repayment  of  the  EUR  12.8 million loans guaranteed by the
Company,  the  Company  might  not  have  sufficient  cash reserves or access to
additional liquidity to make the required payment.

Furthermore,  the  Company  has  issued  a  guarantee  for  the  termination sum
amounting  to approximately  203.4 million euros  that Talvivaara  Sotkamo would
have  to pay  to Nyrstar  due to  a premature  termination of the Zinc Streaming
Agreement  between  the  companies.  On  30 March 2015, the bankruptcy estate of
Talvivaara  Sotkamo  notified  Nyrstar  that  it  does  not  commit  to the Zinc
Streaming Agreement or the Streaming Holiday Agreement. Consequently, on 9 April
2015 Nyrstar  sent a  notice to  the Company,  reserving their  right to issue a
demand to the Company as a guarantor for a payment of all sums due by Talvivaara
Sotkamo  under the Zinc Streaming Agreement and the Streaming Holiday Agreement,
should the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo fail to do so. However, based
on  the Intercreditor Agreements binding on the Company and Nyrstar, the Company
cannot  make any payments to Nyrstar in  relation to the termination sum if full
payment has not been made to the Company's other lenders having receivables with
a  higher ranking priority. As the lenders having a higher ranking priority will
not  receive a  full payment  on their  receivables due  to Talvivaara Sotkamo's
bankruptcy  and the Company's restructuring proceedings, the Company cannot make
payments  relating  to  the  termination  sum  to Nyrstar due to the subordinate
position  of  Nyrstar's  claim.  Based  on  the above, the Administrator did not
include  the  Company's  guarantee  liability  for  the  termination  sum in the
restructuring  debts or in the new  liabilities arisen during the proceedings in
his  final draft  restructuring programme,  which decision  was not contested by
Nyrstar  within  the  given  time  frame  expiring on 27 March 2015. However, if
Nyrstar  was later to contest the treatment of the Company's guarantee liability
successfully and thereby be allowed to demand payment from the Company under the
guarantee,  the Company would likely not have sufficient cash reserves or access
to  additional  liquidity  to  make  the  required  payment.  In  addition,  any
uncertainty  surrounding the issue  would have a  significant negative effect on
the  Company's ability to raise new funds required for the successful fulfilment
of  the  conditions  for  the  entry  into  force of the Company's restructuring
programme.  Based on the  above and on  the applied non-going concern principle,
the  Company  has  provided  the  full  amount  of  the guarantee liability as a
provision on its balance sheet.

Business development projects
Talvivaara  acquired in  2011-2012 an approximately  60MW capacity share  in the
Fennovoima  nuclear project in  Finland. Due to  the Company's ongoing corporate
reorganisation  proceedings, Talvivaara is  currently not in  a position to make
further  investments into the project and has  therefore not been able to commit
to  payments that would, according to plan, fall due during the course of 2014.
Talvivaara  had  an  option  until  the  early  autumn  of  2014 to  recommit to
Fennovoima's   financing   and  get  an  ownership  corresponding  to  47 MW  of
electricity, but this option was not exercised.

Legal proceedings
As at the date of the Company's financial statements on 29 April 2015, there are
a  number  of  on-going  legal  proceedings  in  relation  to  environmental and
occupational  health and safety issues concerning a number of current and former
managers of Talvivaara.

Talvivaara  announced on  22 September 2014 that  the consideration  of charges,
which  related to Talvivaara Sotkamo's gypsum pond leakages of November 2012 and
April  2013 and the sodium, sulphate and  manganese discharges that exceeded the
anticipated amounts, were completed. The prosecutor decided not to bring charges
against  thirteen specialists  and members  of the  middle management  that were
heard  as  suspects.  Instead,  charges  were  brought  against  four members of
Talvivaara's  management, including CEO Pekka Perä and former CEO Harri Natunen.
The  charges concern aggravated impairment of  the environment. According to the
Company, the completed pre-trial investigation and consideration of charges have
given  the Company no reason to change its previously announced view of no crime
having  been committed, and the Company does  not share the prosecutor's view of
the  threshold  for  charges  having  been  met.  The Company is however looking
forward  to the opportunity to have the facts  relating to the matter as well as
the then-current operating conditions of the Company discussed in an open court.

On  22 October  2014, Talvivaara  announced  that  the  consideration of charges
relating  to  the  industrial  accident  of  March 2012 at the Sotkamo mine were
completed. Following the accident, an employee of Talvivaara Sotkamo who was not
wearing appropriate safety equipment lost his life due to a localised, temporary
excess  gas discharge nearby the metals recovery plant. Three former managers of
Talvivaara   Sotkamo's  metals  recovery  plant  are  charged  with  involuntary
manslaughter  and work safety offence. The prosecutor is requesting a fine to be
imposed  on the accused.  The persons being  charged include an  employee of the
Company  but does  not include  any current  or former  members of the Executive
Committee of Talvivaara. The Company does not share the prosecutor's view of the
threshold for charges having been met.

Risk management and key risks
Talvivaara's  near-term risk factors include particularly such risks that relate
to  its ongoing corporate reorganisation  proceedings, financing and sufficiency
of funds to meet its actual and potential liabilities.

The  approval  and  authorisation  of  the  proposed  restructuring programme of
Talvivaara  is conditional, among other things, on (i) a requisite number of the
Company's  creditors voting in favour of the Administrator's draft restructuring
programme,  (ii) Talvivaara  succeeding in  completing an  arrangement that will
secure  the  necessary  cash  flow  for  the  Company  to  discharge  all of its
liabilities  and the continuance  of the Company's  eligible business, and (iii)
the  shareholders of  Talvivaara approving  the possibility  for a conversion of
unsecured  restructuring  debts  into  shares  in  the  Company  as  well as the
financial  arrangement required  to discharge  the remaining restructuring debts
and  to cover other possible liabilities to the extent the Company's other funds
are  not sufficient for such purpose. As  at the date of the Company's financial
statements  29 April 2015, there is  no certainty as  to whether the Company can
fulfil all the set requirements within the given time frame.

Although  the Board of  Directors believes that  a corporate reorganisation is a
viable  option  for  Talvivaara,  there  can  be  no assurance that the proposed
restructuring  programme of  the Company  will be  approved and authorised or be
ultimately  successful.  The  corporate  reorganisation  process  can fail for a
number  of reasons, including due  to an insufficiency of  funds to implement or
complete  the restructuring  programme, changes  in circumstances  affecting the
financial  viability of Talvivaara,  including, for example,  termination of the
service  and lease agreements  between the Company  and the bankruptcy estate of
Talvivaara  Sotkamo, or  insufficient income  from the  services provided to the
bankruptcy  estate or the contemplated new entity running the mining operations.
If  the corporate reorganisation fails for these  or any other reasons, it could
result in the bankruptcy of the Company.

Failure  by the Company to reach final clarity on the treatment of its guarantee
obligation for the termination sum set forth in the Zinc Streaming Agreement may
impair  or  even  hinder  the  Company's  efforts  to  raise  new  funds for the
successful  fulfilment  of  the  conditions  for  the  entry  into  force of the
Company's  restructuring programme.  Whilst the  Company shares  the view of the
Administrator  on the treatment of the  guarantee obligation for the termination
sum  under the  Zinc Streaming  Agreement and  considers the  view well-founded,
there  is no certainty that a competent  court or a dispute resolution authority
would  arrive at the same outcome, should  Nyrstar take legal actions to contest
the  chosen view. Furthermore, even if such  legal actions were not initiated by
Nyrstar, any uncertainty surrounding the issue would have a significant negative
effect  on the Company's ability to raise  new funds required for the successful
fulfilment  of  the  conditions  for  the  entry  into  force  of  the Company's
restructuring programme.

The  right  of  conversion  of  debt  into  equity included in the restructuring
programme  of Talvivaara and/or the issuance  of new equity instruments may lead
to  a  significant  dilution  of  the  existing shareholding of the Company. The
extent  of dilution will eventually be determined by the aggregate amount of the
restructuring  debts to  be converted  into shares  at the determined conversion
rate  of EUR 0.1144 per share as well as  by the subscription price of the newly
issued  shares offered and the  amount of funds raised  in, the potential equity
financing.

The  Sotkamo mine has faced various  difficulties since the commissioning of the
mine  in 2008 and  2009. These difficulties  include, among  others, operational
difficulties  concerning  the  mine's  production and performance, environmental
issues  as well  as legal  and administrative  proceedings involving the Sotkamo
mine  and certain  members of  Talvivaara's management.  Therefore, even in case
Talvivaara  acquires  a  stake  in  the  company  carrying on the Sotkamo mining
operations,  the Sotkamo  mine may  not be  able to successfully address various
operational,  environmental and other  difficulties facing the  Sotkamo mine and
shareholders  could  ultimately  lose  their  entire  investment in the Company.
Further,  there can be no certainty  that the financing potentially available to
Talvivaara would be sufficient to ramp-up production at the Sotkamo mine or that
it would ever achieve profitability.

Personnel
Headcount and remuneration
Talvivaara's  headcount decreased somewhat from the  previous year and was 53 at
the end of 2014 (2013: 61). At the end of 2014, 49 % (2013: 46%) of Talvivaara's
employees  were men  and 51 %  (2013: 54 %)  were women.  The average age of the
Company's employees was 40.4 years (2013: 40.3 years).

In  2014, Talvivaara decided to  lay-off 3 employees for  an undefined period to
support the reorganization process.

Talvivaara's personnel comprises an expert organisation, the core competences of
which  include, for example, analytical laboratory services, bioheapleaching and
other  production processes, procurement,  environmental safety, risk management
and  communications. The organisation has in the past provided critical services
to  Talvivaara Sotkamo  and it  continues to  provide the  same services  to the
bankruptcy  estate of Talvivaara  Sotkamo as agreed  between the Company and the
bankruptcy estate. The salaries and wages of Talvivaara's personnel are based on
industry-wide collective agreements.

The  total compensation of the key  individuals has traditionally consisted of a
base  salary and short and long term  incentive schemes based on annual bonuses,
stock  options and other share-based incentive schemes. The subscription periods
for  the  Company's  Stock  Options  2007A, 2007B and  2007C expired on 31 March
2012, on  31 March  2013 and  on  31 March  2014 respectively,  and  the vesting
criteria  set  by  the  Board  of  Directors  for  the  Company's  Stock Options
2011A, 2011B and  2011C were not  fulfilled and  subsequently the  Stock Options
2011A, 2011B and 2011C were cancelled. The group personnel fund set up to manage
the  earnings  bonuses  was  dismantled  following  the bankruptcy of Talvivaara
Sotkamo.  In addition, the  management holding company  Talvivaara Management Oy
was  dismantled in December  2014. Consequently, the Company  does not currently
have any long term incentive schemes in place.

However,  due to exceptional circumstances surrounding the Company during 2014,
the  Company  focused  on  securing  the  engagement  of  its key individuals by
strengthening  and rewarding  the engagement  of the  key individuals  through a
retention  bonus scheme  at the  end of  2013. As of  1 January 2014, the scheme
concerned  approximately 20 employees of the Company. The CEO of the Company did
not  participate in  the scheme.  The maximum  bonus potential  under the scheme
equalled  three or four months' base salary of a participant. The scheme expired
at the end of the year 2014, and it has not been extended into the year 2015.

The  vesting criteria for  Stock Options 2011A were  not fulfilled and the Stock
Options  2011A were cancelled  at the  end of  2012. As the vesting criteria for
Stock  Options 2011B were not fulfilled the options were cancelled at the end of
2013. Similarly, the vesting criteria for Stock Options 2011C were not fulfilled
and the Stock Options 2011C were cancelled at the end of 2014.

In  March 2013, an  Extraordinary General  Meeting of  Talvivaara resolved to to
authorize the Board of Directors to undertake a share issue for consideration in
accordance  with the  shareholders' pre-emptive  subscription rights.  The share
issue  was completed in April 2013 and the  total number of shares in Talvivaara
increased to 1,906,167,480 shares.

In  June 2014, the Annual General Meeting of shareholders of Talvivaara resolved
on  a  share  issue  to  the  Company without consideration. The 190,615,000 new
shares  that were issued were registered with  the Finnish Trade Register on 25
July  2014. Following the registration of the  treasury shares, the total number
of  shares in Talvivaara is 2,096,782,480. The new shares, when held in treasury
by  the Company, will not carry voting rights or any other shareholder rights in
the Company.

In  December  2014, the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  dismantled  the
shareholding  scheme organized through  Talvivaara Management Oy  for members of
the  Talvivaara Executive  Committee and  other key  personnel of the Talvivaara
group.  The  scheme  was  dismantled  by  the  Company  acquiring  all shares of
Talvivaara  Management Oy  from the  participants for  a nominal purchase price.
Talvivaara  Management Oy was placed in  liquidation on 19 December 2014. On 31
December 2014, Talvivaara Management Oy held 2,268,000 shares of the Company.

As  at  31 December  2014, the  only  shareholders  who held more than 5% of the
shares  and votes  of Talvivaara  were Solidium  Oy (15.2%)  and Mr.  Pekka Perä
(5.9%).   Talvivaara   held  directly  9.1% and  indirectly  through  Talvivaara
Management  Oy (in liquidation) 0.1 %  of the shares in  the Company. The shares
held in treasury by the Company do not carry any voting rights.

Share based incentive plans
The Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on 3 May 2007 approved the Board
of Directors' proposal to issue Stock Options to the Talvivaara group's key
personnel. The number of Stock Options is 6,999,300, each entitling to subscribe
one new share. A total of 2,333,100 of the Stock Options were designated
2007A, 2,333,100 were designated as 2007B and 2,333,100 were designated as
2007C. Following the rights issue completed in 2013, the subscription price and
the number of shares that can be subscribed to via Stock Options 2007 were
adjusted in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Option Scheme. The
subscription price for the Stock Option 2007C was adjusted to GBP 0.5110 per
share and the number of shares that can be subscribed for through the exercise
of Stock Option 2007C was increased by 13,998,600 shares (previously 2,333,100
shares). The subscription periods for 2007A, 2007B and 2007C Stock Options
expired on 31 March 2012, 31 March 2013 and 31 March 2014, respectively.

During  2014, no  Stock  Options  were  allocated  and  no shares with the Stock
Options  2007C (by their expiration on 31 March 2014) were subscribed for. There
are  no further Stock Options 2007C outstanding.  The vesting criteria for Stock
Options  2011A were not fulfilled and the  Stock Options 2011A were cancelled at
the  end  of  2012. As  the  vesting  criteria  for Stock Options 2011B were not
fulfilled  the options were cancelled at the end of 2013. Similarly, the vesting
criteria for Stock Options 2011C were not fulfilled and the Stock Options 2011C
were cancelled at the end of 2014.

In  December  2010, The  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company decided on a new
shareholding  plan directed to members of executive management and certain other
key employees. The plan enabled the participants to acquire a considerable long-
term shareholding in the Company. Through this plan, the participants personally
invested  a significant amount of their own funds in the Company shares. Part of
the  investment was  financed by  a loan  provided by  the Company. The EUR 5.7
million  loan granted by the Company to Talvivaara Management Oy for the purpose
of  acquiring Company shares  carries an interest  of 3.0%. The 1,104,000 shares
held by Talvivaara Management Oy were pledged to the Company as security for the
loan.

Originally  the plan was to be valid until the publication of Talvivaara's 2013
Financial  Statements, after which event the  intention was to dissolve the plan
and  to repay the loan in full on  31 March 2014. However, based on the terms of
the  plan, the plan  was continued for  one year, as  the Talvivaara share price
after  the publication of Talvivaara's  2013 Financial Statements was lower than
the  average price which  Talvivaara Management paid  for its Talvivaara shares.
The repayment date of the loan was also postponed correspondingly.

On  19 December 2014, Talvivaara decided to dismantle the shareholding plan. The
scheme   was  dismantled  by  Talvivaara  acquiring  all  shares  of  Talvivaara
Management Oy from the participants for a nominal purchase price.

On  30 March 2015, the bankruptcy estate  of Talvivaara Sotkamo notified Nyrstar
that, pursuant to Chapter 3, Section 8 of the Bankruptcy Act, it does not commit
to   the   Zinc   Streaming   Agreement  or  the  Streaming  Holiday  Agreement.
Consequently, Nyrstar has on 9 April 2015 sent a notice to the bankruptcy estate
of  Talvivaara  Sotkamo,  contesting  the  right  of  the  bankruptcy  estate to
terminate  the Zinc  Streaming Agreement  or the  Streaming Holiday Agreement by
reason  of  its  own  insolvency,  and  declaring  that  all  the amounts due by
Talvivaara  Sotkamo under the  Loan and Streaming  Holiday Agreement have become
immediately  due  and  payable  by  Talvivaara  Sotkamo.  Nyrstar  also gave the
bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo a 30-day-notice under the Zinc Streaming
Agreement,  during which  period Talvivaara  Sotkamo as  a seller under the Zinc
Streaming  Agreement should try  to remedy the  seller event of default, failing
which the Zinc Streaming Agreement shall terminate. Simultaneously, Nyrstar sent
a  notice to the Company, reserving their right to issue a demand to the Company
as  a guarantor for  a payment of  all sums due  by Talvivaara Sotkamo under the
Zinc  Streaming  Agreement  and  the  Streaming  Holiday  Agreement,  should the
bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara Sotkamo fail to do so.

However,  based  on  the  Intercreditor  Agreement  binding  on  the Company and
Nyrstar,  the Company  cannot make  any payments  to Nyrstar  in relation to the
termination  sum  if  full  payment  has  not  been  made  to the lenders having
receivables with a higher ranked priority. As the lenders having a higher ranked
priority  will not receive a full payment on their receivables due to Talvivaara
Sotkamo's  bankruptcy and  the Company's  restructuring proceedings, the Company
cannot  make payments relating  to the termination  sum to Nyrstar, as Nyrstar's
claim  for termination sum is in a subordinate position. Based on the above, the
Administrator  did  not  include  the  Company's  guarantee  liability  for  the
termination  sum in  the restructuring  debts or  in the  new liabilities arisen
during the proceedings in his final draft restructuring programme.

On  13 April 2015, the Facility Agent of  the lenders under the Revolving Credit
Line  Facility  Agreement,  which  have  receivables  with  the  highest ranking
priority,  notified Nyrstar, the Company and the bankruptcy estate of Talvivaara
Sotkamo  that  an  Event  of  Default  under  the Revolving Credit Line Facility
Agreement  has occurred  and is  continuing and  that all  payments, which would
otherwise be permitted for the Company or Talvivaara Sotkamo have thereby become
prohibited.

Status of the corporate reorganisation
On  30 January 2015, the  District Court  of Espoo  granted an  extension to the
deadline  for  re-submitting  the  proposal  for the reorganisation programme of
Talvivaara until 13 March 2015.

On  12 March 2015, Talvivaara was  informed that Audley  Capital Advisors LLP, a
UK-based  investment and capital  advisory firm, has  entered into a conditional
asset  purchase agreement to  acquire the assets  of Talvivaara Sotkamo from its
bankruptcy  estate.  At  the  same  time,  the  Republic of Finland, through its
wholly-owned  special  purpose  company  Terrafame  Ltd,  has  entered  into  an
investment  agreement with Audley Capital Advisors LLP. The purpose of the asset
purchase   agreement  and  the  investment  agreement  is  to  re-establish  the
operations  and continue the  business of the  Sotkamo mine within  a new mining
company  that will be established in connection with the transaction. Before the
transaction  can close  and operations  at the  mine can  be ramped up under the
direction  of the  new mining  company, a  number of  steps must  still be taken
including the provision of the necessary regulatory permits and the obtaining of
committed  financing. The Company announced on 12 March 2015 that the process of
selling  the Sotkamo mining operations had  progressed in the expected sequence,
and  the  milestone  reached  by  the  parties to the conditional asset purchase
agreement  enables the  start of  serious discussions  on Talvivaara's potential
role in the future of the Sotkamo mining operations.

On   13 March   2015, the  Administrator  of  the  corporate  reorganisation  of
Talvivaara  filed the supplemented draft restructuring programme to the District
Court  of Espoo. The supplemented draft restructuring programme was based on the
plan  presented in the original draft restructuring programme dated 30 September
2014, whereby  the  business  operations  of  the  mine  are to be sold to a new
company with which Talvivaara shall have a sufficient functional connection that
is based on ownership, operations or other type of economic co-operation.

The  total amount  of the  restructuring debts  to be  taken into account in the
restructuring  proceedings is approximately 513 million euros, out of which 508
million  euros is considered unsecured debt.  This amount does not include debts
with lowest priority. In addition, the Company has approximately 8 million euros
liability relating to a granted third-party security. The Administrator proposed
that the restructuring debts be cut by 99% which would leave 1% of the amount of
such  debt to  be repaid.  The restructuring  debts secured by business mortgage
will not be cut and no payments would be made on debts with lowest priority. The
draft  restructuring programme does  not include a  provision on a  duty to make
supplementary  payments. The  total amount  of the  restructuring debts includes
also  approximately 31.9 million euros of  conditional restructuring debt, which
consists  mainly of  counter indemnity  given as  a guarantee  for the guarantee
insurance  provided by Atradius  Credit Insurance N.V  to Kainuu ELY Centre. The
guarantee  insurance relates to the certain obligations prescribed in Talvivaara
Sotkamo's environmental permit.

The  term of the restructuring programme  would consist of one instalment. After
the 1% restructuring debt repayment has been made to the remaining restructuring
creditors  and  after  the  other  measures  obligating the Company in the draft
restructuring  programme have been completed, Talvivaara would not be subject to
any restriction on payment of dividends.

The  Administrator's  estimate  is  that  after  the  completion  of  the  above
referenced  restructuring measures - and assuming that none of the restructuring
creditors  would use their conversion right  included in the draft restructuring
programme  - the balance sheet of  the Company would include approximately 25.1
million  euros of financial debt, comprising of approximately 12.5 million euros
of  new debts arisen during the proceedings and approximately 12.6 million euros
of cut restructuring debts and other liabilities.

The  confirmation  and  entry  into  force  of the draft restructuring programme
requires the fulfilment of all of the following conditions:

 a. Talvivaara succeeds in negotiating an agreement with the party that
    purchases Talvivaara Sotkamo mining operations from the bankruptcy estate
    based on which:

     1. Talvivaara can obtain sufficient cash flow to cover the costs of its
        business operations if the Company's other assets or other cash flows
        are not sufficient to cover said costs; and

     2. Talvivaara has the right to make an investment sufficient to acquire a
        significant minority stake in the company engaging in the mining
        operations, or the parties complete a different financial and/or
        operative arrangement that will secure the continuance of the Company's
        eligible business;


 b. The general meeting of shareholders of Talvivaara:

     1. approves the opportunity to be offered to all holders of unsecured
        restructuring debts to convert the full amount (but not a part thereof)
        of their unsecured restructuring debt into shares in the Company with
        due regard to any limitations of prohibitions set by foreign securities
        laws that would make the offering of the conversion right to certain
        foreign creditors either illegal or unreasonably difficult to implement.
        If all unsecured restructuring creditors exercise said opportunity, the
        percentage of holdings of the Company's current shareholders would be
        diluted by 70%. The conversion rate would be EUR 0.1144 per share; and

     2. executes or authorises the Company's Board of Directors to execute a
        financial arrangement (e.g. issuance of shares or bonds or execution of
        other financing instrument) to raise the funds needed to execute an
        arrangement referred to in section a) 2. and/or for paying the remaining
        restructuring debts and for covering other possible liabilities to the
        extent the Company's other funds are not sufficient for such purpose;


 c. The proceedings for converting the restructuring debts into shares in the
    Company have been completed in accordance with the section b) 1. above, and
    the new shares have been registered in the Trade Register.


A  share issue or an  issuance of another instrument  entitling to the shares of
the Company, which are among the possible means to satisfy the condition for the
entry  into force of the restructuring programme, would, if fully subscribed for
and depending on the amount to be raised in the transaction, dilute the holdings
of the existing shareholders significantly.

In  addition to what has  been provided on the  lapse of restructuring programme
and  corporate reorganization, if the special  conditions set for the entry into
force  of the  restructuring programme  have not  been met by 13 March 2017, the
Administrator   will   make  a  request  to  the  District  Court  to  have  the
restructuring  proceedings  interrupted.  In  addition,  the draft restructuring
programme  included a specific  condition entitling the  Administrator to make a
request   to   the   District  Court  for  the  cancellation  of  the  corporate
reorganization  in  case  the  Company  does  not  have the funds for paying the
restructuring debts within two years of the confirmation of the programme.

Talvivaara  as a  debtor in  the restructuring  proceedings was  given a similar
right  as the creditors of  the corporate reorganisation to  give a statement on
the  supplemented draft restructuring programme and propose changes to it by the
deadline  of 27 March 2015 set by  the District Court of  Espoo. No statement on
the restructuring programme was given by Talvivaara.

On  14 April 2015, the  District Court  of Espoo  gave a  decision to initiate a
creditors'  voting procedure on the draft restructuring programme of the Company
in  accordance  with  section  76 of  the  Restructuring  of Enterprises Act. By
initiating  the voting  procedure, the  creditors of  the Company  are given the
opportunity  to either support or oppose the Administrator`s draft restructuring
programme.  The approval of  the draft restructuring  programme requires express
support from the necessary number of creditors.

Legal proceedings
Based on the pre-trial investigation relating to the discharge of raffinate from
the metals recovery plant of Talvivaara Sotkamo and dilute secondary heap
solutions into the open pit during the period of 19 December 2013 - 31 January
2014, the prosecutor decided on 11 February 2015 to bring charges against CEO
Pekka Perä. During the pre-trial investigation, the police moderated the type of
the suspected crime to an environmental infraction (petty crime), while the
prosecutor changed the type of the suspected crime back to impairment of the
environment in his application for a summons. The prosecutor requested the
District Court to handle the case together with the case concerning the gypsum
pond leakages and the discharges into water ways. The Company does not share the
prosecutor's view of the threshold for charges having been met.

On  28 April  2015, Talvivaara  confirmed  that  a  number of current and former
members  of Talvivaara's Board of Directors and  management have been or will be
heard  in connection with an investigation  relating to the Company's disclosure
practices.  Talvivaara  believes  that  the  investigation  will  establish  the
appropriateness  of the Company's  conduct in all  respects, and emphasizes that
the  Company  has  already  in  the  past  gone  through  the applied disclosure
practices  extensively  and  in  great  detail  with  the  Financial Supervisory
Authority.  None of the inquiries has given rise to any administrative sanctions
available for the Financial Supervisory Authority.



Short-term outlook
The operational outlook for Talvivaara is greatly dependent on the successful
completion of the Company's corporate reorganisation proceedings and the success
to closing, timing and extent of the necessary financing solutions currently
under contemplation. Whilst the Administrator's final draft restructuring
programme gives the Company reasonably ample time fulfil the requirements set
forth for the entry into force of the restructuring programme, there is no
certainty that the Company can fulfil all the requirements within the given time
frame.

Board of Directors' proposal for the measures to be taken owing to the loss for
the financial year

The  Board  of  Directors  is  proposing  to  the Annual General Meeting that no
dividend  is  declared  in  respect  of  the  year 2014 and that the loss of the
financial  period  is  entered  into  the  Company's  profit/loss account on the
balance sheet.

NOTES

 1. Basis of preparation


This year-end report has been prepared in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union taking
into account the corporate reorganisation proceedings that commenced in respect
of the Company on 29 November 2013, and IAS 1.25 and IAS 1.26 requirements
regarding the disclosure under the non-going concern basis.

As  described elsewhere in this earnings release and in the financial statements
under Note 2, Talvivaara's financial statements for the financial year ended 31
December  2014 have  been  prepared  on  a  basis  other than going concern. The
financial  statements for year ended 31 December  2013 have not been restated to
take   into   account  the  non-going  concern  assumption.  For  the  basis  of
presentation  for the  financial statements  of 2013, please  refer to the 2013
financial  statements. The chosen reporting basis  results from the existence of
material  uncertainty that casts significant doubt upon the Company's ability to
realise  its  assets  and  discharge  its  liabilities  in  the normal course of
business   and  from  the  lack  of  visibility  on  the  Company's  operational
environment twelve months beyond the date of reporting. Therefore, the requisite
adjustments  resulting from the  chosen reporting basis  have, where applicable,
been  made in the financial statements to  the carrying amounts of the Company's
assets  and  liabilities  (see  Note  2), but  no  reserve  has been made in the
Company's  balance  sheet  for  the  costs  relating  to  winding  down  of  the
operations.

Talvivaara's ability to revise its reporting basis and to regain its status as a
going  concern is dependent, among other things, on the successful completion of
the  Company's corporate reorganisation  proceedings, which requires  that (i) a
requisite   number   of   the   Company's   creditors  vote  in  favour  of  the
Administrator's  draft restructuring programme  submitted on 13 March 2015, (ii)
Talvivaara  succeeds in completing an arrangement that will secure the necessary
cash  flow  for  the  Company  to  discharge  all  of  its  liabilities  and the
continuance  of the Company's  eligible business, and  (iii) the shareholders of
Talvivaara  approve the possibility for  a conversion of unsecured restructuring
debts  into shares in the Company as  well as the financial arrangement required
to  discharge the remaining restructuring debts  and for covering other possible
liabilities  to the extent the Company's other funds are not sufficient for such
purpose.  As of the  date of the  Company's financial statements 29 April 2015,
there  is  no  certainty  as  to  whether  the  Company  can  fulfil all the set
requirements within the given time frame.

Should  the  restructuring  programme  draft  be  approved  as  proposed  by the
Administrator,  following illustrative  calculations on  equity position  can be
drawn.  First  calculation  assumes  that  none  of  the restructuring creditors
convert  their  debt  to  equity  as  per the restructuring programme and latter
calculation  assumes  that  all  of  the  non-secured  creditors  convert  their
restructuring debt to equity.

restructuring programme would be approved
