Auditor

Ernst & Young Oy, a firm of authorised public accountants, was re-elected as
the auditor of the company with authorised public accountant Mikko Rytilahti
acting as the responsible auditor. The audit fee shall be paid according to the

Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares as well
as the issuance of special rights entitling to shares 

As proposed by the Board of Directors, the AGM authorised the Board of
Directors to decide on the issuance of shares as well as the issuance of
special rights entitling to shares referred to in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the
Finnish Companies Act by one or several decisions as follows. 

The amount of shares to be issued shall not exceed 60 million shares, which
corresponds to approximately 10.1 percent of all the current shares in the
company. Shares potentially issued by virtue of the special rights entitling to
shares are included in the aforesaid maximum number of shares. 

The Board of Directors was further authorised to decide on all the conditions
of the issuance of shares and special rights entitling to shares. The
authorisation concerns both the issuance of new shares as well as the transfer
of own shares held by the company. The issuance of shares and special rights
entitling to shares may be carried out in deviation from the shareholders'
pre-emptive rights by way of a directed issue. 

The authorisation is valid until the close of next Annual General Meeting,
however, no longer than until 30 June 2016. 

Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase and/or on the
acceptance as pledge of the company's own shares 

As proposed by the Board of Directors, the AGM authorised the Board of
Directors to decide on the repurchase and/or on the acceptance as pledge of the
company's own shares in one or several tranches as follows. 

The amount of own shares to be repurchased and/or accepted as pledge shall not
exceed 30 million shares, which corresponds to approximately 5.1 per cent of
all the current shares in the company. Only the unrestricted equity of the
company can be used to repurchase own shares on the basis of the authorisation. 

Own shares can be repurchased at a price formed in public trading on the date
of the repurchase or otherwise at a price formed on the market. 

The Board of Directors was further authorised to decide how own shares will be
repurchased and/or accepted as pledge. Own shares can be repurchased using,
inter alia, derivatives. Own shares can be repurchased otherwise than in
proportion to the shareholdings of the shareholders (directed repurchase). 

The authorisation is valid until the close of next Annual General Meeting,
however, no longer than until 30 June 2016.
