The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that a dividend of
EUR 0,80 per share will be paid for the year ended on December 31, 2016 and that
the rest be retained and carried further in the Company's unrestricted equity.
The proposed dividend totals approximately EUR 35,3 million, which corresponds
to approximately 79% percent of the Group's net profit for 2016. The record date
for the payment of the dividend will be April 6, 2017 and the proposed payment
date is April 13, 2017.

Resolution on the remuneration of the Auditor

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting, on the
recommendation of the Audit Committee, that the Auditor's fees be paid against
an invoice approved by the Company.

Election of the Auditor

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting, on the
recommendation of the Audit Committee, that KPMG Oy Ab be elected as the
Company's auditor for the term that ends at the conclusion of the Annual General
Meeting following the appointment. KPMG Oy Ab has informed that APA Toni
Aaltonen will act as the principal auditor.

Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase of the Company's
own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorize the
Board of Directors to decide upon the repurchase of a maximum of 4,400,000
Company's own shares with assets pertaining to the company's unrestricted equity
in one or more tranches. The proposed maximum amount of the authorization
corresponds to approximately 10 percent of all the shares in the Company.

The authorization for repurchases of Company's own shares is proposed to be
carried out at the market price of the share on Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd or in other
marketplace the rules of which allow companies to trade with their own shares.
The authorization entitles the Board of Directors to repurchase the shares in
another proportion than that of the shares held by the current shareholders
(directed repurchase). In repurchasing of the Company's own shares, the Company
may enter into derivative, stock lending or other arrangements customary in
capital market practice within the limits set by law and other regulations. In
repurchases, the Company will follow the rules and guidelines regarding, among
other factors, the determination of the repurchase price, settlement and
disclosure of trades, of the marketplace in which the repurchase is carried out.

The consideration payable for the repurchase of the shares shall be based on the
market price of the Company's share on the securities market. The minimum
consideration of the repurchase of the Company's own shares is the lowest market
price of the share quoted during the authorization period and, correspondingly,
the maximum price is the highest market price of the share quoted during the
authorization period.

The shares may be repurchased to be used for financing or implementing possible
mergers and acquisitions, developing the Company's equity structure, improving
the liquidity of the Company's shares or to be used for the payment of the
annual fees payable to the members of the Board of Directors or for implementing
the share-based incentive programs of the Company. For the aforementioned
purposes, the Company may retain, transfer further or cancel the shares. The
Board of Directors would decide upon other terms related to repurchase of
shares.

The repurchase authorization would be valid until the end of the next Annual
General Meeting, however, no longer than until June 30, 2018.

This authorization would cancel the repurchase authorization granted by the
Annual General Meeting to the Board of Directors on April 6, 2016.

Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorize the
Board of Directors to decide to transfer the Company's own shares held by the
Company or to issue new shares in one or more tranches limited to a maximum of
4,400,000 shares. The proposed maximum aggregate amount of the authorization
corresponds to approximately 10 percent of all the shares in the Company.

The Company's own shares held by the Company may be transferred and the new
shares may be issued either against payment or without payment. The new shares
may be issued and the Company's own shares held by the Company may be
transferred to the Company's shareholders in proportion to their current
shareholdings in the Company or in deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive
right through a directed share issue, if the Company has a weighty financial
reason to do so, such as financing or implementing mergers and acquisitions,
developing the Company's equity structure, improving the liquidity of the
Company's shares, settling the payment of the annual fees payable to the members
of the Board of Directors or implementing the share-based incentive programs of
the company. Upon the issuance of the new shares, the subscription price of the
new shares shall be recorded to the invested unrestricted equity reserves. In
case of a transfer of the Company's own shares, the price payable for the shares
shall be recorded to the invested unrestricted equity reserves.

The Board of Directors would decide upon other terms and conditions related to
the share issues. The authorization would be valid until the end of the next
Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than until June 30, 2018.

This authorization would cancel the share issue authorization granted by the
Annual General Meeting to the Board of Directors on April 6, 2016.
