RAISIO'S CONVERTED SHARES

The Board of Directors of Raisio plc has decided in its meeting held on 27
September 2012 to convert a total of 24,209 restricted shares (series K) into
free shares (series V). The decision has been entered in the Trade Register
today, on 11 October 2012. The additional lot of free shares in question is
admitted to trading on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd as of 12 October 2012. 

Since the beginning of 2012, a total of 138,397 restricted shares of the
company have been converted into free shares. The number of issued free shares
is now 131,032,370 while the number of restricted shares is 34,116,660. The
share capital entitles to 813,365,570 votes. 

Since the conversion occurs between the two share classes, it does not affect
the company's registered share capital, which remains unaltered at EUR
27,776,072 and is divided into 165,149,030 shares. 

The converted free shares have equal rights with the free shares issued earlier
entitling to the right to the next succeeding profit to be shared as well as to
other shareholder rights as of today. 

Financial Supervisory Authority has by its decision on 29 May 1998 granted the
company an exemption from obligation to publish a prospectus when an additional
lot of free shares converted from restricted shares is admitted to trading on
the stock exchange.
