The composition of Aktia Bank Plc's Shareholders' Nomination Board has changed. In accordance with the Committee's rules of procedure, Johan Hammarén, appointed by Oy Hammarén & Co Ab, has resigned from the Committee, as Oy Hammarén & Co Ab has transferred more than half of the shares that entitled it to appoint a member as of 1 June and, as a result of the transfer, is no longer among the company's five largest shareholders. In accordance with its rules, the Nomination Committee has decided to offer the right to appoint a new member to two of Aktia's largest shareholders who had not yet appointed a member. The following have been appointed as new members of the Nomination Committee:

• Hanna Kaskela, appointed by Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company

As other members of the nomination committee continue:

• Gisela Knuts, appointed by the companies controlled by Erkki Etola and the Pension Insurance Company Veritas
