following terms and conditions:

I STOCK OPTION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Number of Stock Options

The maximum total number of stock options issued shall be 1,650,000,
and they shall entitle their owners to subscribe for a maximum total
of 1,650,000 shares in the Company.

2. Stock Options

Of the stock options, 500,000 shall be marked with the symbol 2007A,
550,000 shall be marked with the symbol 2007B and 600,000 shall be

The stock options shall be delivered to the recipient when he or she
has accepted the offer of the Board of Directors.

3. Right to Stock Options

The stock options shall be issued gratuitously to the Group key
personnel. The Company has a weighty financial reason for the issue
of stock options, since the stock options are intended to form part
of the Group's incentive and commitment program for the Group key
personnel.

4. Distribution of Stock Options

The Board of Directors shall decide upon the distribution of the
stock options to the key personnel employed by or to be recruited by
the Group. The Board of Directors shall also decide upon the further
distribution of the stock options returned later to the Company.

The stock options shall not constitute a part of employment or
service contract of a stock option recipient, and they shall not be
regarded as salary or fringe benefit. Stock option recipients shall
have no right to receive compensation on any grounds, on the basis
of stock options, during employment or service or thereafter. Stock
option recipients shall be liable for all taxes and tax-related
consequences arising from receiving or exercising stock options.

5. Transfer and Forfeiture of Stock Options

The Company shall hold the stock options on behalf of the stock
option owner until the beginning of the share subscription period.
The stock options can freely be transferred and pledged, when the
relevant share subscription period has begun. The Board of Directors
may, however, permit the transfer of stock options also before such
date. Should the stock option owner transfer his/her stock options,
such person is obliged to inform the Company about the transfer in
writing, without delay.

Should a stock option owner cease to be employed by or in the
service of the Group, for any reason other than the death or the
statutory retirement of a stock option owner, such person shall,
without delay, forfeit to the Company or its order, free of charge,
the stock options for which the share subscription period specified
in Section II.2 has not begun, on the last day of such person's
employment or service. The Board of Directors can, however, in the
above-mentioned cases, decide that the stock option owner is
entitled to keep such stock options, or a part of them.

Should the stock options be transferred to the book-entry securities
system, the Company shall have the right to request and get
transferred all forfeited stock options from the stock option
owner's book-entry account to the book-entry account appointed by
the Company, without the consent of the stock option owner. In
addition, the Company shall be entitled to register transfer
restrictions and other respective restrictions concerning the stock
options to the stock option owner's book-entry account, without the
consent of the stock option owner.

II SHARE SUBSCRIPTION TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Right to subscribe for Shares

Each stock option entitles its owner to subscribe for one (1) share
in the Company. The share subscription price shall be entered into
the paid-up unrestricted equity fund.

2. Share Subscription and Payment

The share subscription period shall be
- for stock option 2007A 1 May 2010 - 30 April 2012
- for stock option 2007B 1 May 2011 - 30 April 2013
- for stock option 2007C 1 May 2012 - 30 April 2014.

Share subscriptions shall take place at the head office of the
Company or possibly at another location and in the manner determined
later. Upon subscription, payment for the shares subscribed for,
shall be made to the bank account appointed by the Company. The
Board of Directors shall decide on all measures concerning the share
subscription.

3. Share Subscription Price

The share subscription price shall be:
- for stock option 2007A, the trade volume weighted average
quotation of the share on the Helsinki Stock Exchange during
1 April - 30 April 2007
- for stock option 2007B, the trade volume weighted average
quotation of the share on the Helsinki Stock Exchange during
1 April - 30 April 2008
- for stock option 2007C, the trade volume weighted average
quotation of the share on the Helsinki Stock Exchange during
1 April - 30 April 2009.

If the dividend ex date falls on the period for determination of the
share subscription price, such dividend shall be added to the
trading prices of the share trading made after the dividend ex date,
when calculating the trade volume weighted average quotation of the
share. The proceedings shall be similar, if the Company distributes
funds from the paid-up unrestricted equity fund or distributes share
capital to the shareholders.

The share subscription price of the stock options may be decreased
in certain cases mentioned in Section 7 below. The share
subscription price shall, nevertheless, always amount to at least
EUR 0.01.

4. Registration of Shares

Shares subscribed for and fully paid shall be registered in the book-
entry account of the subscriber.

5. Shareholder Rights

The dividend rights of the new shares and other shareholder rights
shall commence when the shares have been entered in the Trade
Register.

If existing shares, held by the Company, are given to the subscriber
of shares, the subscriber shall be entitled to dividend and other
shareholder rights when the shares have been subscribed and paid.

6. Share Issues, Stock Options and other special Rights entitling to
Shares before Share Subscription

Should the Company, before the share subscription, decide on an
issue of shares or an issue of new stock options or other special
rights entitling to shares, a stock option owner shall have the same
right as, or an equal right to, that of a shareholder. Equality is
reached in the manner determined by the Board of Directors by
adjusting the number of shares available for subscription, the share
subscription price or both of these.

7. Rights in Certain Cases

If the Company distributes dividends or funds from the paid-up
unrestricted equity fund, the share subscription price of the stock
options shall be reduced by the amount of the dividend or the amount
of the distributable paid-up unrestricted equity decided after the
beginning of the period for determination of the share subscription
price but before share subscription, as per the dividend record date
or the record date of the repayment of equity.

If the Company reduces its share capital by distributing share
capital to the shareholders, from the share subscription price of
the stock options, shall be deducted the amount of the distributable
share capital decided after the beginning of the period for
determination of the share subscription price but before share
subscription, as per the record date of the repayment of share
capital.

If the Company is placed in liquidation before the share
subscription, the stock option owner shall be given an opportunity
to exercise his/her share subscription right, within a period of
time determined by the Board of Directors. If the Company is deleted
from the register, before the share subscription, the stock option
owner shall have the same right as, or an equal right to, that of a
shareholder.

If the Company resolves to merge with another company as merging
company or merge with a company to be formed in a combination
merger, or if the Company resolves to be demerged entirely, the
stock option owners shall, prior to the merger or demerger, be given
the right to subscribe for shares with their stock options, within a
period of time determined by the Board of Directors. Alternatively,
the Board of Directors can give a stock option owner the right to
convert the stock options into stock options issued by the other
company in the manner determined in the draft terms of merger or
demerger, or in the manner otherwise determined by the Board of
Directors, or the right to sell stock options prior to the merger or
demerger. After such period, no share subscription right shall
exist. The same proceeding applies to cross-border mergers or
demergers, or if the Company, after having registered itself as an
European Company, or otherwise registers a transfer of its domicile
from Finland into another member state. The Board of Directors shall
decide on the impact of potential partial demerger on the stock
options. In the above situations, the stock option owners shall have
no right to require that the Company redeem the stock options from
them at their market value.

Repurchase or redemption of the Company's own shares or acquisition
of stock options or other special rights entitling to shares shall
have no impact on the status of the stock option owner. If the
Company, however, resolves to repurchase or redeem its own shares
from all shareholders, the stock option owners shall be made an
equivalent offer.

If a redemption right and obligation to all of the Company's shares,
as referred to in Chapter 18 Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act,
arises to any of the shareholders, before the end of the share
subscription period, on the basis that a shareholder possesses over
90 % of the shares and the votes of the shares of the Company, the
stock option owners shall be given a possibility to use their right
of share subscription by virtue of the stock options, within a
period of time determined by the Board of Directors, or the stock
option owners shall have an equal obligation to that of shareholders
to transfer their stock options to the redeemer, irrespective of the
transfer restriction defined in Section I.5 above.

III OTHER MATTERS

These terms and conditions shall be governed by Finnish law.
Disputes arising in relation to the stock options shall be settled
by arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the
Central Chamber of Commerce.

The Board of Directors may decide on the transfer of the stock
options to the book-entry securities system at a later date and on
the resulting technical amendments to these terms and conditions, as
well as on other amendments and specifications to these terms and
conditions which are not considered essential. Other matters related
to the stock options shall be decided on by the Board of Directors.

The Company shall be entitled to withdraw the stock options which
have not been transferred, or with which shares have not been
subscribed for, free of charge, if the stock option owner acts
against these terms and conditions, or against the instructions
given by the Company on the basis of these terms and conditions, or
against applicable law, or against the regulations of the
authorities.

The Company can keep stock option owners on register including stock
option owners' personal data. The Company can send information on
the stock options to the stock option owners by e-mail.

These terms and conditions have been made in Finnish and in English.
In the case of any discrepancy between the Finnish and English terms
and conditions, the Finnish terms and conditions shall decide.
