Share-based incentive programs and change in the amount of F-Secure's treasury
shares 

Share-based incentive program

The Board of Directors has decided to establish a new share-based and synthetic
option-based incentive program, earning period 2011-2013, for its key
employees. The purpose of these programs is to support company´s strategy by
aligning the interests of the shareholders and the key employees in order to
increase the value of the company and to commit the key employees to the
company. The Board determines the metrics of the share based program and may
change them according to the terms and conditions of the program. Metrics for
the earning period are based on results in growth of new businesses, stock
performance against peer group and earnings per share against predefined
objectives. 

The program entitles a possibility for participants of share-based incentive
program to receive a reward of F-Secure shares and cash to cover taxes.  There
shall be a maximum total of 2,500,000 shares and a cash payment corresponding
to the registration date value of the shares. The participants in the
share-based incentive program are recommended not to sell more than 50% of the
received shares and to cumulate the shares from the incentive programs until
the value of the shares received from the share programs equals the annual
gross base salary of the employee.
