Convertible debenture programme for management and key staff

In accordance with the Board of Directors proposal, it was decided that ÅF Pöyry AB shall raise a convertible subordinated loan of a nominal maximum of SEK 150 000 000 through the issue of convertible debentures. Nominated participants shall be senior executives and other key staff, approx. 300 persons in total.

If the conversion rate at the moment of issue will be determined at an amount which would lead to a dilution after full conversion by more than 2% of the share capital, the maximum loan amount shall be reduced so that the maximum dilution will be 2%. The subscription price for each convertible should correspond to its nominal amount.
