RAISIO'S CONVERTED SHARES

The Board of Directors of Raisio plc has decided in its meeting held on 22
August 2013 to convert a total of 39,316 restricted shares (series K) into free
shares (series V). The decision has been entered in the Trade Register today,
on 6 September 2013. The additional lot of free shares in question is admitted
to trading on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd as of 9 September 2013. 

Since the beginning of 2013, a total of 82,104 restricted shares of the company
have been converted into free shares. The number of issued free shares is now
131,183,968 while the number of restricted shares is 33,965,062. The share
capital entitles to 810,485,208 votes. 

Since the conversion occurs between the two share classes, it does not affect
the company's registered share capital, which remains unaltered at EUR
27,776,072 and is divided into 165,149,030 shares. 

The converted free shares have equal rights with the free shares issued earlier
entitling to the right to the next succeeding profit to be shared as well as to
other shareholder rights as of today. 

Financial Supervisory Authority has by its decision on 29 May 1998 granted the
company an exemption from obligation to publish a prospectus when an additional
lot of free shares converted from restricted shares is admitted to trading on
the stock exchange.
