   10    Resolution on the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors

The Shareholders' Nomination Committee proposes to the Annual General Meeting
that the remuneration to the members of the Board of Directors be unchanged, but
instead of monthly fees is notified as annual fees as follows: EUR 30 000 to the
ordinary members of the Board of Directors, EUR 45 600 to the Deputy Chairman
and EUR 68 400 to the Chairman. The same fee as to the Board Deputy Chairman
will be paid to the Chairman of a Board Committee unless the same individual is
also the Chairman or Deputy Chairman of the Board. In addition to these fees it
is proposed that the member of the Board of Directors be paid a remuneration of
EUR 800 for each Board meeting and for each permanent or temporary committee
meeting. It is the company's practice not to pay fees to Board members who are
also employees of the Tieto Group.

The Shareholders' Nomination Committee proposes that 40% of the fixed annual
remuneration be paid in Tieto Corporation's shares purchased from the market.
The shares will be purchased within two weeks from the release of the interim
report January 1-March 31, 2011 of Tieto Corporation. The shares are proposed to
be acquired directly on behalf of the members of the Board which is an approved
manner to acquire the company's shares in accordance with the applicable insider
rules. The Committee is of the opinion that increasing long-term shareholding of
the Board members will benefit all the shareholders.

   11    Resolution on the number of members of the Board of Directors

The Shareholders' Nomination Committee proposes to the Annual General Meeting
that the number of Board members be eight.

In addition to the above, the company's personnel shall appoint two members,
each with a personal deputy, to the Board of Directors.

   13    Resolution on the remuneration of the auditor

as follows:

The amount of own shares to be repurchased shall not exceed 7 200 000 shares,
which corresponds to approximately 10 % of all of the shares in the company.
Only the unrestricted equity of the company can be used to repurchase own shares
on the basis of the authorization.

The company's own shares can be repurchased at a price formed in public trading

shares can be repurchased otherwise than in proportion to the shareholdings of
the shareholders (directed repurchase of shares).

24 September 2012.
