RAISIO'S CONVERTED SHARES

The Board of Directors of Raisio plc has decided in its meeting held on 12
February 2015 to convert a total of 13,212 restricted shares (series K) into
free shares (series V). The decision has been entered in the Trade Register
today, on 6 March 2015. The additional lot of free shares in question is
admitted to trading on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd as of 9 March 2015. 

Since the beginning of 2015, a total of 317,359 restricted shares of the
company have been converted into free shares. The number of issued free shares
is now 132,095,112 while the number of restricted shares is 33,053,918. The
share capital entitles to 793,173,472 votes. 

Since the conversion occurs between the two share classes, it does not affect
the company's registered share capital, which remains unaltered at EUR
27,776,072 and is divided into 165,149,030 shares. 

The converted free shares have equal rights with the free shares issued earlier
entitling to the right to the next succeeding profit to be shared as well as to
other shareholder rights as of today.
