STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 15 November 2016 at 9:00

Restamax Plc directs 440,000 new shares to the sellers of Restala Oy and cancels
200,000 treasury shares

Restaurant company Restamax Plc has agreed with the owners ("Sellers") of
Restala Oy a share exchange whereby Restamax acquires all the shares in Restala
Oy. Restala Oy owns 82 per cent of Unioninkadun keidas Oy, which engages in the
restaurant business. Unioninkadun keidas Oy owns the Colorado Bar & Grill
restaurants at Ruka, Levi, Pyhä and in Helsinki. In addition, the company owns
the Mura Sushi restaurant at Ruka and the Kuura and Pizza Block restaurants at
Levi. The company also has catering business operations at Levi.

Restamax's Board of Directors have on 14 November 2016 resolved to issue and
direct, on the basis of an authorization granted by the General Meeting of the
company, in total 440,000 new shares in Restamax to the Sellers in order to
execute the share exchange. The subscription price of the new shares is EUR
6.02 per share, which represents the closing price of Restamax's share on 11
November 2016. The total subscription price is therefore EUR 2,648,800 and this
amount shall be booked in the company's reserve for invested unrestricted
equity. The directed share issue has a weighty financial reason for the company
since the issue makes it possible for the company to acquire all of the shares
in Restala Oy. The shares to be issued in the directed share issue entitle to
dividends and all other shareholder rights from the company's accounting period
ending 31 December 2016. Restamax will apply listing of the shares to be issued
in the directed share issue on the main list of Nasdaq Helsinki Oy without
delay.

In the same connection, Restamax has agreed that Restamax will acquire the
Sellers' 18 per cent minority shareholding in Unioninkadun keidas Oy, the
remainder of the shares of which are owned by Restala Oy.

In addition, the Board of Directors of Restamax have decided to cancel 200,000
treasury shares that are in possession of the company.
