The Board of Directors signed the financial statements for the year 2014 on

Board of Directors' Proposals to the Annual General Meeting


1) Dividend proposal

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that a dividend
of EUR 0.06 and an extra dividend of EUR 0.10 per share be paid based on the
adopted balance sheet for the financial year 2014. After selling the personal
cloud business, younited, the Company's financial position is very strong and
the cash flow from operations is expected to continue to be clearly positive.
This gives the Company a possibility to simultaneously invest in growing the
security business and increase dividends to shareholders. The total amount of
dividends would be approximately EUR 24.9 million. The parent company's
distributable shareholder's equity is EUR 51.6 million. 


2) Authorizing the Board of Directors to repurchase the company's own shares

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Board of
Directors be authorized to decide on the repurchase of a maximum of 10,000,000
own shares of the company in one or multiple tranches with the company's
unrestricted equity. The authorization entitles the Board of Directors to
decide on the repurchase also in deviation from the proportional holdings of
the shareholders (directed repurchase). The authorization covers the repurchase
of shares either in trading at the regulated market organized by NASDAQ OMX
Helsinki Ltd in accordance with its rules and guidelines, in which case the
shares must be purchased at the prevailing market price at the time of
repurchase, or through a public tender offer to the shareholders, in which case
the price offered must be the same for all shareholders. The repurchased shares
will be used for making acquisitions or implementing other arrangements related
to the company's business, for improving the company's financial structure, for
use as part of the company's incentive scheme or otherwise for further
assigning or cancelling the shares. The authorization includes the right for
the Board of Directors to decide upon all other terms and conditions related to
the repurchase of the company's own shares. The authorization is proposed to be
valid for 12 months, and the previous authorization granted to the Board of
Directors by the 2014 Annual General Meeting regarding the repurchase of the
company's own shares would expire upon the new authorization. 



3 Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares and
other special rights entitling to shares 

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Board of
Directors be authorized to decide on the issuance of a maximum of 53,004,812
shares or the issuance of special rights entitling to shares referred to in
Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act in one or
multiple tranches. The authorization concerns both the issuance of new shares
as well as the transfer of treasury shares. The authorization includes the
right for the Board of Directors to decide upon all terms and conditions
related to the issuance of shares and special rights. The issuance of shares
may be carried out in deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive rights
(directed issue). The authorization can be used for implementing potential
acquisitions, other arrangements or equity-based incentive plans or for other
purposes decided by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also has the
right to decide on the sale of company shares at the regulated market in
accordance with NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd's rules and regulations. The
authorization is proposed to be valid for 18 months, and the previous
authorization granted to the Board of Directors by the 2014 Annual General
Meeting regarding the issuance of shares and transfer of own shares would
expire upon the new authorization.
