an invoice that is reviewed and approved by the Company and that according to
the recommendation   by the Audit Committee, the Authorised Public Accountant
Firm Ernst & Young Oy was re-elected as the Auditor of the Company. Ernst &
Young Oy has informed the Company that the individual with the principal
responsibility at Ernst & Young Oy, is Authorised Public Accountant Erkka

SHARE ISSUE AND OTHER SPECIAL RIGHTS THAT ENTITLE TO SHARES

 The AGM resolved to authorize the Board of Directors to issue shares and
stock options and other special rights that entitle to shares in one or more
tranches up to a maximum of 25,000,000 new shares or shares owned by the
Company. This equates to approximately 9.6 % of the Company's currently
registered shares. The authorisation may be used among other things to raise
additional finance and enabling corporate and business acquisitions or other
arrangements and investments of business activity or for employee incentive and
commitment schemes. By virtue of the authorisation, the Board of Directors can
decide both on share issues against payment and on share issues without
payment.  The payment of the subscription price can also be made with
consideration other than money. The authorisation contains the right to decide
on derogating from shareholders' pre- emptive right to share subscriptions
provided that the conditions set in the Finnish Companies' Act are fulfilled.

The authorisation replaces all previous authorisations and is valid two
(2) years from the decision of the Annual General Meeting.

ACQUIRING OF OWN SHARES

The AGM resolved that the Board of Directors would be authorized to decide
on the acquiring of company's own shares.

By virtue of the authorisation for the acquisition of own shares, a maximum
of 15,000,000 own shares could be acquired with the funds from the
Company's unrestricted shareholders' equity, however, in such a way that the
total number of own shares, which the Company and its subsidiaries have in their
possession or as a pledge, does not exceed one tenth of all shares in accordance
with Section 11 of Chapter 15 of the Finnish Companies Act. The authorisation
covers acquisition of shares in public trade in NASDAQ Helsinki Oy and outside
of the public trade. The compensation paid for acquired shares shall be based
on the market value.

Derivative contracts, share loan agreements or other agreements may be
made within laws and regulations if they are customary to capital market.
The authorisation   entitles the Board of Directors to make a resolution
on acquisition otherwise than in the relation of the shares owned by
the shareholders (directed acquisition) according the preconditions set forth in
the Companies Act.

The AGM resolved that the authorisation concerning the acquisition of own
shares would among other things be used in developing the company's capital
structure, in financing and executing corporate acquisitions and other
arrangements, in executing the company's share-based incentive systems or
otherwise in being transferred or cancelled.  The acquisition of shares reduces
the company's distributable non-restricted shareholders' equity.

The AGM resolved that the authorisation replaces all previous authorisations
and that it is valid 18 months as from the decision of the General Meeting.

THE MEETING OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Following the AGM, the Board of Directors held a meeting in which Dr Jelena
Manojlovic was unanimously appointed as Chairman.
