HONKARAKENNE DIVESTS ITS HOLDING IN PW-WINDOWS OY                               

On 29 December 2009, Honkarakenne Oyj completed an agreement to sell its 15%    
holding in the Ikaalinen-based window manufacturer PW-Windows Oy. The shares

The transaction is subject to the completion of the sale of the business        
operations of PW-Windows Oy to Suomen Villa Palvelut Oy by 29 January 2010 at   
the latest. The parties in the transaction have agreed that the sale price and

Under a separate agreement, the business operations of PW-Windows Oy will be    
transferred to Suomen Villa Palvelut Oy, and production will continue at its    
production facilities in Ikaalinen. The principal shareholders of Suomen Villa  
Palvelut Oy are PW-Windows Oy and the operational management of the new company.

Honkarakenne relinquishes its holding in PW-Windows Oy as part of its ongoing   
measures to streamline the entire group's structure and boost the efficiency of 
procurements.
