PAYING PANOSTAJA OYJ BOARD MEMBERS' FEES IN THE FORM OF SHARES HELD BY THE
COMPANY 

With reference to Board meeting fees, Panostaja Oyj's AGM decided on 27th
January 2011 that about 40% of the fee paid to a board member should be paid in
accordance with the share issue authorisation given to the Board by
transferring company shares to each Board member unless a Board member should
already own more than one per cent of the total share capital on the date of
the AGM. If a Board member's holding in the company on the date of the AGM
should exceed one per cent of the total share capital, the fee shall be paid
fully in cash. Panostaja Oyj's Board also decided at its organisational meeting
held upon completion of the AGM to implement the AGM decision concerning Board
member fees paid as shares in such a way that shares are transferred on a
