  * Rights offering oversubscribed by approximately 30.8 per cent regarding A

  * Gross proceeds of approximately EUR 75.6 million were raised

The  Board of Directors of Oriola-KD  Corporation ("Oriola-KD" or the "Company")
has  today  approved  in  full  all  subscriptions made pursuant to subscription
rights  in  the  rights  offering  that  ended  on 3 March 2015. In the offering
12,334,694 new  A shares (the "New A Shares"), representing approximately 130.8
per cent of the 9,429,742 New A Shares offered, and 31,732,984 new B shares (the"New  B  Shares"  and  jointly  with  the  New  A Shares, the "Offered Shares"),
representing  approximately  152.6 per  cent  of  the  20,798,643  New  B Shares
offered,  were  subscribed  for.  The  shares  subscribed for represent in total
approximately 145.8 per cent of all Offered Shares.

9,031,132 New  A Shares and 20,224,876 New  B Shares, representing approximately
96.8 per  cent  of  all  Offered  Shares,  were  subscribed  for on the basis of
subscription  rights.  3,303,562 New  A  Shares  and  11,508,108 New  B  Shares,
representing  approximately 49.0 per cent of all Offered Shares, were subscribed
for  without subscription rights  in the secondary  subscription. Of the Offered
Shares  in the  secondary subscription,  398,610 New A  Shares and 573,767 New B
Shares were allocated to subscribers in proportion to the number of subscription
rights exercised. The subscription guarantee given by Triton IV Luxco No. 16 S.à
r.l was therefore not utilised.

The  subscription price for the New A Shares  and the New B Shares was EUR 2.50
per  share. Oriola-KD  raised gross  proceeds of  approximately EUR 75.6 million
through the offering. As a result of the offering, the total number of shares in
Oriola-KD  will increase to 181,486,213 shares, of which 56,578,452 are A Shares
and  124,907,761 are B Shares.  The Offered Shares  will entitle in  full to any
possible   dividend  distributed  by  the  Company  as  well  as  produce  other
shareholders'  rights  in  the  Company  as  of  the time the Offered Shares are
entered  into the Finnish Trade Register, which is estimated to take place on or
about 9 March 2015.

Trading  in the  interim A  shares (trading  code OKDAVN0115)  and the interim B
shares (trading code OKDBVN0115), representing the Offered Shares subscribed for
pursuant  to subscription rights, commenced  on 4 March 2015. The interim shares
representing  the Offered Shares will be  combined with the Company's respective
current  share classes (the  trading code of  the A shares  is OKDAV and trading
code  of the B shares OKDBV) once the Offered Shares have been registered in the
Finnish  Trade Register. The  Offered Shares subscribed  for and approved in the
secondary  subscription will be recorded on the subscribers' book-entry accounts
on  or  about  9 March  2015. Trading  in  the  Offered Shares on the NASDAQ OMX
Helsinki Ltd stock exchange will begin on or about 10 March 2015.

The   shareholders  and  other  investors  who  participated  in  the  secondary
subscription will be sent a confirmation specifying the number of Offered Shares
allocated  on the basis of the secondary subscription on or about 9 March 2015.
To  the  extent  that  the  Company  did  not  allocate  all  the Offered Shares
subscribed  for  in  the  secondary  subscription,  as  set out in an investor's
subscription  order, the  Company will  refund to  the investor the subscription
price  corresponding to the Offered Shares that were not obtained on or about 9
March 2015.

Pohjola  Bank plc  acts as  the lead  manager of  the offering.  Hannes Snellman
Attorneys Ltd is the legal advisor of Oriola-KD.
