The Annual General Meeting authorised the Board of Directors to decide on the
repurchase and/or on the acceptance as pledge of the company's own shares as
follows:

The authorisation concerns only B-shares. The amount of own shares to be
repurchased and/or accepted as pledge shall not exceed 8,000,000 shares, which
corresponds to approximately 9.93 per cent of all B-shares in the company and to
approximately 9.27 per cent of all 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 decides how own shares will be repurchased and/or
accepted as pledge. Shares can be repurchased using, inter alia, derivatives.
Own shares can be repurchased otherwise than in proportion to the shareholdings
of the existing shareholders (directed repurchase).

Own shares may be repurchased on the basis of the authorisation in order to
finance or carry out acquisitions or other business transactions, in order to
develop the company's capital structure, to improve the liquidity of the
company's shares, to be disposed for other purposes or to be cancelled. Own
shares may be accepted as pledge on the basis of the authorisation in order to
finance or carry out acquisitions or other business transactions. The
authorisation cannot be used for incentive schemes.

The authorisation cancels the authorisation given to the Board of Directors by
the General Meeting on 18 March 2015 to decide on the repurchase and/or
acceptance as pledge of the company's own shares.

The authorisation is effective until the end of the next Annual General Meeting,
however no longer than until 30 June 2017.

shares in the company.

and of special rights entitling to shares. The issuance of shares and of special

business transactions and investments as well as to improve the capital
structure. The authorisation cannot be used for incentive schemes.

however no longer than until 30 June 2017.

Issuance of stock options

The Annual General Meeting decided to issue stock options to the key personnel
of CapMan Group in accordance with the proposal of the Board of Directors. The
terms and conditions of the stock options have been published on 12 February
2016 as part of the Notice to the General Meeting.

The Company has a weighty financial reason for the issuance of stock options,
since the stock options are intended to form part of the long-term incentive and
commitment program for the key personnel. The purpose of the stock options is to
encourage the key personnel to work on a long-term basis to increase shareholder
value. The purpose of the stock options is also to commit the key personnel to
the Company.

be issued gratuitously. Of the stock options, 1,410,000 are marked with the
symbol 2016A, 1,410,000 are marked with the symbol 2016B and 1,410,000 are
marked with the symbol 2016C. The stock options entitle their owners to
subscribe for a maximum total of 4,230,000 new B-shares in the company or
existing B-shares held by the company. The stock options now issued can be
exchanged for shares constituting a maximum total of 4.9 per cent of all of the
company's shares and a maximum total of 3.1 per cent of all of the company's
votes, after the potential share subscription, if new shares are issued in the
share subscription.

The share subscription period for stock options 2016A, will be 1 May 2019-30
April 2021, for stock options 2016B, 1 May 2020-30 April 2022 and for stock
options 2016C, 1 May 2021-30 April 2023.

The share subscription price for stock option 2016A is the trade volume weighted
average quotation of the company's B-share on Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd. during
1 April-31 May 2016 with an addition of 10 per cent, for stock option 2016B, the
trade volume weighted average quotation of the B-share on Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd.
