The Board of Directors of Evli Bank Plc has resolved to establish a new share-
based incentive plan

The Board of Directors of Evli Bank Plc has resolved to establish a new share-
based incentive plan directed to selected key employees of the company. Rewards
paid based on the plan will be paid in Evli's shares. The combined maximum
amount of shares to be paid corresponds to 230,000 shares (gross number of
shares before reduction of applicable tax deductions).

The aim with the share-based incentive plan is to support Evli's strategy and
align the objectives of the shareholders and the selected key employees in order
to increase the value of Evli in the long-term. In addition the aim is to retain
the selected key employees at the company and to offer them a competitive reward
plan.

The reward from the incentive plan in awarded in three installments. The first
installment is awarded to the participants by the end of September 2017. The
second and third installments are awarded to the participants by the end of
September 2018 and 2019. The prerequisite for reward award and reward payment is
that a participant's employment or service is in force. In addition, the Board
of Directors may consider the participant's work contribution.

Each installment has a three year deferral period. Ownership rights to the
shares subject to the reward are transferred to the beneficiary only after the
end of the deferral period. Therefore the ownership is transferred to the
participants after the relevant deferral period by the end of September
2020, 2021 and 2022.
