SHARES                                                                          

The Board of Directors of Ramirent Plc has based on the authorisation by the    
Annual General Meeting held on 29 March 2010 decided on the repurchase of up to 
390,000 shares of the Company. The repurchase will not commence until one week  
after the decision has been published with this stock exchange release.         

The repurchase of the shares will be executed in accordance with the terms of   
the authorisation by the Annual General Meeting. The shares will be repurchased 
in deviation from the proportion to the holdings of the shareholders with funds 
in the Company's non-restricted equity through public trading on NASDAQ OMX     
Helsinki Ltd at the market price of the time of the repurchase. The shares will 
be acquired and paid for in accordance with the rules of NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd
and Euroclear Finland Ltd.                               

The shares will be acquired to be used as part of the Company's incentive       
program, as consideration in possible acquisitions or in other arrangements that
are part of the Company´s business, to finance investments, or to be retained,  
otherwise conveyed or cancelled by the Company. There is a financial weighty    
reason for the repurchase, since the shares are to be repurchased through public
trading and the contemplated purposes of use are in the best interests of the   
Company and its shareholders.
