DECISION ON KONECRANES PLC’S PERFORMANCE SHARE PLAN CRITERION 2014-2016

KONECRANES PLC  STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE  February 5, 2014  at 10:00

The Board of Directors has resolved that the performance criterion for the
discretionary period 2014-2016 is the cumulative Earnings per Share (EPS) of
the financial years 2014—2016. The criterion is unchanged from the
discretionary period 2013—2015. 

The target group of the plan consists of approximately 185 people during the
discretionary period 2014—2016. The rewards to be paid on the basis of the
discretionary period correspond to the value of an approximate maximum total of
700,000 Konecranes Plc shares. If the target determined by the Board of
Directors is attained, the reward payout may be a half of the maximum reward.
The maximum reward payout requires that the target is clearly exceeded. 

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders
to be held on March 27, 2014, that the Board of Directors be authorized to
decide on issuance of shares or transfer of own shares needed for the
implementation of the performance share plan. 

The launch and essential terms and conditions of the performance share plan 
have been published in a stock exchange releases on March 22, 2012 and January
31, 2013.
