for in accordance with the rules and regulations of NASDAQ OMX
Helsinki Ltd and Euroclear Finland Ltd.

The Board of Directors shall resolve upon the method of acquisition.

shares.

Acquisition of the shares reduces the Company's distributable

schemes or for being otherwise relinquished, held or cancelled.

The authorisation concerns a combined maximum of twenty eight million
(28,000,000) Class B shares in the Company, which amount represents
approximately 19.8 percent of all shares of the Company.

The authorisation granted to the Board includes the right to derogate
from the pre-emptive right of the shareholders through a directed
issue, provided that the Company has a weighty financial reason for
this. Subject to the above restrictions, the authorisation may be
used i.a. as payment of consideration when financing and executing
corporate acquisitions or other business arrangements and
investments, to expand the Company's ownership base, to develop
capital structure, to secure the commitment of employees or in
incentive schemes. Pursuant to the authorisation, Class B shares held
by the Company as treasury shares may also be sold in public trading
organised by NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd.

The authorisation includes the right for the Board to decide on the
terms of the share issue in the manners provided for in the Companies
Act including the right to decide whether the subscription price is
credited in part or in full to the invested unrestricted equity
reserves or in the share capital.

The authorisation remains in effect for a period of eighteen (18)
months from the decision of the Annual General Meeting.

Previous share issue authorisations granted to the Board earlier were
revoked, with the exception of the authorisation granted to the Board
