the Board, Timo Laine, Petri Olkinuora, Mikko Aartio, Jarmo Viitala, Mika Niemi

expenses will be reimbursed in accordance with the Company's travel rules.

Auditor

The Annual General Meeting reselected as auditor Deloitte & Touche Oy, a firm of
authorised public accountants, until the end of the next Annual General Meeting.
Hannu Mattila, APA, will act as the Company's responsible auditor. In accordance
with the Board's proposal, the meeting decided that the auditor's remuneration
will be paid based on a reasonable invoice approved by the Company.

Authorisation to purchase the Company's own shares

The Annual General Meeting decided to authorise the Board to decide on using the
Company's unrestricted equity to purchase no more than 800,000 of the Company's
own shares in one or several tranches, taking into account the stipulations of
the Limited Liability Companies Act regarding the maximum number of shares in
possession of the Company and under the following terms:

The Company's shares held by the Company shall be purchased with the funds from
the Company's unrestricted equity, meaning that the purchases decrease the
distributable profits of the Company. The shares shall be purchased in trading
on the regulated market in the Helsinki Stock Exchange, and therefore the
purchase takes place by private placing and not in relation to the shares owned
by the shareholders. The sum paid for the shares is the price announced on the
acquisition day for Restamax Plc's shares on the regulated market on the stock
list of Helsinki Stock Exchange. The shares are purchased in trading organised
by Nasdaq Helsinki Oy in accordance with its rules and regulations. The shares
can be purchased for financing or carrying out possible corporate acquisitions
or other arrangements, to implement incentive schemes within the Company, or for
other purposes decided by the Board. The maximum amount of the shares to be
purchased is equivalent to approximately 4.9 per cent of all the shares and
votes of the Company calculated using the share count on the publication date of
the invitation to the Annual General Meeting, so the purchase of the shares does
not have a significant influence on the share ownership and the distribution of
voting rights in the Company.

The Board of Directors shall decide on other matters related to the purchase of
the Company's own shares.

The authorisation will expire at the end of the 2017 Annual General Meeting,
however no later than 18 months of the Annual General Meeting's authorisation
decision.

The minutes of the Annual General Meeting are available to shareholders at the
Restamax Plc head office and on the Company's website
www.restamax.fi/en/investors/general-meeting/annual-general-meeting-2016 on 11
