announcement 

The Board of Directors of Plc Uutechnic Group Oyj resolved at the meeting, held
6 June 2016, in accordance with authorization given on 28 April 2016 by the
Annual General Meeting, on an issue of maximum 1.000.000 new shares of the
Company. These shares shall be directed to the employees of the Company Group
and to the ordinary members of the Board of Directors of the Company. 

The chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company Jouko Peräaho and the
technical director of the Company Timo Lindström (the applicants) participated
in a previous Company-related arrangement with regard to which Financial
Supervisory Authority considered in its decision FIVA 14/02.05.05/2015 that the
applicants acted together with a broader investor group, and, on grounds
presented in the said decision and subject to certain conditions granted a
permission to derogate from the obligation to launch a bid set forth in Section
19 of Chapter 11 of the Securities Markets Act. 

The applicants have applied from Financial Supervisory Authority for an
exceptional permit, in order to be able to participate in the aforementioned
share issue so that the decision FIVA 14/02.05.05/2015 of Financial Supervisory
Authority would not prevent the participation nor an obligation to launch a bid
in accordance with Section 19 of Chapter 11 of the Securities Markets Act would
not arise based on the shares subscribed in the said share issue. 

Financial Supervisory Authority has on 12 August 2016 granted an exceptional
permit (FIVA 11/02.05.05/2016) with regard to the said share issue so that
Jouko Peräaho shall have right to subscribe 50,000 shares at maximum and Timo
Lindström shall have right to subscribe 150,000 shares at maximum. Financial
Supervisory Authority considers that the prohibition to acquire or subscribe
more shares in the Company or otherwise raise the proportional voting rights in
the Company as set forth in the exceptional permit 14/02.05.05/2015 shall
otherwise remain valid with regard to Jouko Peräaho, Jonni Peräaho, Timo
Lindström, Ilona Lindström, Risto Lindström and UuCap Oy (a company owned by
the aforementioned persons together) which are all considered to act together.
