The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting authorize the Board of
Directors to decide on the directed repurchase of a maximum of 200,000 of the
Company's own A-shares in one or more instalments with funds belonging to the
Company's unrestricted equity.

The shares shall be repurchased in a proportion other than that of the
shareholders' current shareholdings in the Company in public trading arranged by
NASDAQ Helsinki Ltd at the market price on the moment of repurchase (directed
repurchase). The shares shall be repurchased and paid according to the rules of
NASDAQ Helsinki Ltd and Euroclear Finland Ltd. Shares so purchased can be used
as consideration in possible acquisitions or in other arrangements that are part
of the Company's business, to finance investments, as part of the Company's
incentive program, or be retained, conveyed, or cancelled by the Company. The
Board of Directors is authorized to decide on the repurchase of own shares in
all other respects.

It is proposed that the authorization is valid until the closing of the next
Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than October 5, 2017. The
authorization replaces the previous authorization for directed repurchase of own
A-shares granted by the Annual General Meeting on March 31, 2015.

16. Proposal by the Board of Directors for authorizing the Board of Directors to
decide on the issuance of the Company's own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the General Meeting authorize the Board of
Directors to decide on the issuance of the Company's own shares as follows:

The authorization concerns only treasury A-shares. The authorization is limited
to a maximum of 391,550 shares, which corresponds to approximately 2.64 per cent
of all A-shares in the Company and to approximately 2.15 per cent of all shares
in the Company.

The issuance of own shares may be carried out in deviation from the
shareholders' pre-emptive rights (directed issue). The authorization entitles
the issuance of treasury A-shares as a directed issue without payment as part of
the Company's share based incentive plan. The Board of Directors can also use
this authorization to grant special rights entitling subscription of the
Company's own shares that are held by the Company. The subscription price of the
shares can instead of cash also be paid in full or in part as contribution in
kind. The Board of Directors decides on all other conditions of the issuance of
own shares.

It is proposed that the authorization is valid until April 5, 2021. The
authorization replaces the previous authorization for issuing own shares granted
by the Annual General Meeting on March 31, 2015.
