according to the Board proposal. The dividend will be paid to shareholders who

Board include Pertti Korhonen, Anu Nissinen, Tero Ojanperä, Jukka Ottela, Margus
Schults and Kirsi Sormunen. Heikki Mäkijärvi was elected a new member.

The AGM decided not to change the remunerations paid to the members of the Board
of Directors. The Chairman of the Board will be paid annual remuneration of EUR
144,000, and each member will be paid EUR 48,000. Further, it was confirmed that
the meeting fee per Board meeting will be EUR 1,050. The meeting fees of
permanent committees of the Board were confirmed to be EUR 1,050 per meeting to
Committee Chairs and EUR 525 to committee members.

The auditor will continue to be PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy, with Authorised

Authorisation to repurchase and transfer shares

The Board of Directors was authorised to decide to repurchase or accept as
pledge up to 2,500,000 own shares of the company using the company's
unrestricted shareholders' equity. The repurchase can take place in one or
several lots. The authorisation will be in force until the end of the next
Annual General Meeting. The authorisation cancels the previous authorisation
granted by the Annual General Meeting of 31 March 2016 to the Board of Directors
for the repurchase of own shares.

The Board of Directors was authorized to decide on a share issue and an issue of
special rights entitling to shares as referred to in Chapter 10, section 1 of
the Limited Liability Companies Act. Based on the authorisation, the Board is
entitled to issue no more than 12,000,000 new shares or own shares held by the
company, in one or several lots. The maximum number proposed corresponds to
around 9 per cent of all the company's current shares.

The share issue may also be a directed issue in deviation from the shareholders'
pre-emptive rights. The authorisation can be used to implement mergers and
acquisitions, to develop the company's capital structure, in the company's
incentive schemes, to pay potential share-based rewards to Board members and to
other purposes decided by the Board. The Board is authorised to decide on all
other terms and conditions of the share issue and of the issue of special rights
entitling to shares.

The authorisation will be in force until the end of the next Annual General
Meeting. The authorisation cancels the authorisations granted to the Board of
Directors by the Annual General Meeting of 31 March 2016 and the Extraordinary
General Meeting of 25 October 2016 to decide on a share issue and an issue of
special rights entitling to shares.
