CHANGE IN PROPOSAL FOR MEMBERS TO THE NOMINATION COMMITTEE

Ixonos Plc Stock Exchange Release 1 April 2008                                  

CHANGE IN PROPOSAL FOR MEMBERS TO THE NOMINATION COMMITTEE

According to the Corporate Governance code determined by the Board, the         
Nomination Committee comprises two (2) Members appointed by the Board and two   
(2) representatives of the shareholders, appointed by the Annual General        
Meeting, of whom one acts as Chairman of the Nomination Committee. In the       
invitation to the General Annual Meeting published on 12 March 2008 shareholders
who represented about 33,6 percent of the company's shares and votes proposed   
that the Annual General Meeting elects Paul Ehrnrooth of Turret Oy and Peter    
Ramsay of Special Mutual Fund Avenir to the Nomination Committee.               

Peter Ramsay has on 31 March notified the Board that since Special Mutual Fund  
Avenir has over the last few weeks reduced its ownership in Ixonos Plc he       
regards it more appropriate that a representative of a larger shareholder be    
elected to the Nomination Committee and thus withdraws from candidacy for the   
Nomination Committee.                                                           

Shareholders who represent about 33,6 percent of the company's shares and votes 
propose that the Annual General Meeting elects Paul Ehrnrooth of Turret Oy and  
Staffan Sevon of Nordea Nordic Small Cap Fund, to the Nomination Committee.
