The Board of Directors of Qt Group Plc decided on extension of the Share Option Scheme for Key Employees


The Board of Directors of Qt Group Oyj (the Company) has at its meeting on 22
June 2016 decided, by virtue of an authorization granted by the Annual General
Meeting of the Company held on 16 March 2016 (“Authorization”), to issue a
maximum of 2,000,000 stock options (“Option Scheme”) to the key persons of the
Company or its group companies (“Key Employees”). Authorization has expired on
16 September 2017. Until said expiry date the Board has issued a total of
1,520,000 option rights for Key Employees and thus a total of 480,000 option
rights still remains left to be issued based on the Option Scheme (“Remaining
Option Rights”).

Now, by virtue of an authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting of the
Company held on 14 March 2017 (“New Authorization”), The Board of Directors of
the Company has at its meeting today, on 27 September 2017 decided to continue
the validity of the Option Scheme so as to issue the Remaining Option Rights,
i.e. a total maximum of 480,000 option rights to the Key Employees in accordance
with the Option Scheme. Terms of the Option Scheme remain in force unchanged in
all other respects. The maximum total number of options rights issued based on
the Option Scheme thus is 2,000,000, and they entitle to subscribe for a maximum
total of 2,000,000 new shares in the Company or existing shares held by the
Company.

The full terms and conditions on the Option Scheme are attached to this release.

In addition, the Board of Directors of the Company has today, on 14 March 2017,
based on the New Authorization, resolved on allocating a total of 52,348 option
rights to Key Employees, who already have been granted option rights on the
basis of the Option Scheme. Said additional option rights are granted as a
result of a rights offering (the "Offering") decided by the Board of Directors
on 14 March 2017 (“Offering Correction”). Following the Offering the number of
shares in the Company increased by a total of 2,974,039 shares. According to the
terms of the Option Scheme the increase in the number of Company’s shares
resulting from a share issue can be taken into account as a correction to the
number of option rights to be issued based on the Option Scheme, and to the
number of shares subscribed based on such option rights. Option rights to be so
granted as an Offering Correction are granted to the Key Employees free of any
charge without subscription list immediately upon the decision by the Board of
Directors.

After execution of said Offering Correction the number of Remaining Option
Rights is down to 427,652, which constitutes the maximum number of option rights
that still remains left to be issued based on the Option Scheme.
