Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares as well as the issuance of options and other special rights entitling to shares 

Annual General Meeting authorised the Board to decide on issuance of shares and/or special rights entitling to shares as referred to in Chapter 10, Section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act. 

Based on the authorisation, the Board of Directors is entitled to issue or transfer, either by one or several resolutions, shares and/or special rights up to a maximum equivalent of 1,500,000 new shares so that the aforesaid shares and/or special rights could be used, e.g., for financing of company and business acquisitions or for financing of other business arrangements and investments, for the expansion of the ownership structure, paying of remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors and/or for the creating incentives for, or encouraging commitment in, personnel. 

The authorisation entitles the Board of Directors to decide on the share issuance with or without payment. The authorisation for deciding on a share issuance without payment includes also the right to decide on the share issuance for the company itself, so that the authorisation may be used in such a way that in total no more than one tenth (1/10) of all shares in the company may from time to time be in the possession of the company and its subsidiaries. 

The authorisation includes the Board of Director’s right to decide on all other terms and conditions of the share issuances and the issuances of special rights. The authorisation entitles the Board of Directors to decide on share issuances, issuances of option rights and other special rights entitling to shares in every way to the same extent as could be decided by the General Meeting, including the Board of Director’s right to decide on directed share issuances and/or issuance of special rights. 

The authorisation is valid until the close of the Annual General Meeting in 2022, however, no longer than until 30 June 2022. The authorization revokes previous authorizations still in force.
