Raisio - Company Announcement

Raisio’s share-based incentive plan for 2015 – 2017

Raisio plc       Stock Exchange Release 22 December 2014

RAISIO'S SHARE-BASED INCENTIVE PLAN FOR 2015 - 2017

The Board of Directors of Raisio plc has approved a new share based incentive
plan for the Group key employees. The performance period of the plan begins on
January 1, 2015 and will end on December 31, 2017. The potential reward for the
performance period 2015 - 2017 is based on the total shareholder return (TSR)
of Raisio free shares (series V). 

Any rewards for the performance period 2015-2017 will be paid partly as free
shares and partly in cash in 2018. The cash proportion is intended to cover
taxes and tax-related costs arising from the rewards to the key employees. No
reward will principally be paid, if a key employee's employment or service at
the Company ends before reward payment. 

The Plan is directed to approximately 40 persons. The reward to be paid on the
basis of the performance period 2015 - 2017 corresponds to a total maximum of
1,000,000 free shares, including the amount to be paid in cash. 

The Board of Directors recommends that the key employees belonging to the
target group will continue to hold a considerable portion of shares received on
the basis of this plan until the value of their share ownership corresponds to
six months gross salary. 

The plan now approved for the performance period 2015 - 2017 is the third under
the long term incentive scheme approved by the Board of Directors in February
2013. The first plan covers the period 2013 - 2015 and the second plan period
2014 - 2016. The aim of the plan is to combine the objectives of the
shareholders and the key employees in order to increase the value of the
Company, to commit the key employees to the Company, and to offer them a
competitive reward plan that is based on the increase of shareholder value and
earning of Raisio shares. The Board of Directors of the Company will annually
decide on the potential launch of a new performance period, the length of such
a performance period and on the performance criteria and their targets for the
performance period.
