- The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Annual

a) The company's shares are to be acquired in order to develop the company's
capital structure and to be used as consideration in acquisitions or other
structural arrangements in a manner and with a scope determined by the Board of
Directors. In addition, the shares may be acquired for the use in share-based
incentive arrangements, for payment of share-based remuneration or otherwise to
be transferred or cancelled. 

b) A maximum number of 2,760,397 of the A-series shares and 954,000 of the
K-series shares of the company may be repurchased, taking into account that the
company may not hold more than 10 per cent of all shares. 

c) Shares will be acquired in the following manner:

(i) The company's A-series shares will be acquired through public trading at
the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Oy as decided by the Board of Directors and by
deviating from the proportion in which the company's shareholders own shares in
the company, at the price set at the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Oy and in accordance
with its rules; 

(ii) The company's K-series shares will be acquired in proportion to shares
owned by the shareholders by making an offer to the owners of the K-series
shares with the following terms: the price paid for the K-series shares
corresponds to the weighted average price paid in the executed transactions in
the public trading of the A-series shares at the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Oy during
the two week period preceding the signing date of the offer. In case the
company has not managed to acquire the number of K-series shares set out in the
resolution by the General Meeting, the Board of Directors may acquire the
remaining number from those owners of K-series shares willing to sell more than
their proportional share of the shares to be acquired. In case more shares are
offered for sale than the number to be purchased, the Board of Directors will
decide, having regard to the ownership share of the sellers and the number of
shares offered for sale, how the number of shares to be purchased is to be
allocated among the shareholders offering shares for repurchase. 

d) The repurchase of the shares will be carried out with funds available for
distribution of profits and the acquisition will reduce the equity available
for distribution 

e) The authorisation to repurchase shares is in force until the Annual General
Meeting to be held in 2012, however, not for a longer period than 18 months as
of the resolution by the General Meeting. 

f) All other issues related to the repurchase of shares are decided by the
Board of Directors of the Company. 

16. Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares and
the company's own shares in possession of the company and the right to issue
special rights which give entitlement to shares as defined in Chapter 10
Section 1 of the Companies Act. 


The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Annual
General Meeting would resolve to authorise the Board of Directors to decide on
the issue of new shares or the company's own shares in the possession of the
company. The new shares and the company's own shares in possession of the
company may be issued against payment or free of charge to all shareholders in
accordance with their proportional ownership of the company's shares or through
a directed issue by deviating from the shareholders' pre-emptive subscription
right provided there is a weighty financial reason from the company's point of
view for the deviation. A directed share issue may only be free of charge if
there is a particularly weighty financial reason for it from the point of view
of the company and all its shareholders. 

New shares may be issued in the following amounts: a total of no more than
5,520,794 A-series shares and no more than 1,908,000 K-series shares. The
company's own shares in the company's possession may be issued in the following
amounts: a total of no more than 5,520,794 A-series shares and no more than
1,908,000 K-series shares. 

In addition, the authorisation would include a right to issue cost-free shares
to the company, provided that the number of shares issued to the company would
not exceed one tenth (1/10) of all shares of the company. When calculating this
number, the number of shares held by the company as well as those held by its
subsidiaries must be taken into account as set out in Chapter 15, Section 11,
and subsection 1 of the Companies Act. 

The authorisation would also include the right to issue special rights, as
defined in Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Companies Act, which entitle to
subscribe for new shares or shares in the possession of the company against
payment. The payment may be made in cash or by setting off the subscriber's
receivable against the company as payment for the share subscription. 

The Board of Directors may use the authorization for the purpose of making
fee/salary payments in the form of shares. 

The Board of Directors is entitled to decide on other issues related to the
share issuances. 

The authorisation to issue shares is in force until the Annual General Meeting
to be held in 2012.
