The Board of Directors also proposes that the general meeting requests the auditor to give a statement in the auditor's report on the adoption of the financial statements, the granting of discharge from liability and the Board of Directors' proposal for distribution of funds.

16. Proposal of the Board of Directors on authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on share issue as well as option rights and other special rights entitling to shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorizes the Board of Directors to decide on share issue as well as issue of option rights and other special rights entitling to shares, pursuant to Chapter 10 of the Companies Act as follows:

The shares issued under the authorization are those Series A shares that are in the company's possession. Under the authorization, a maximum of 2,000,000 Series A shares, which corresponds to approximately 2.00 percent of all the shares in the Company and approximately 2.14 percent of all the Series A shares in the Company, can be issued. The shares, option rights or other special rights entitling to shares can be issued in one or more tranches.

The authorization to issue new shares, option rights as well as other special rights entitling to shares is proposed to enable the Board of Directors to decide to implement share-based incentive arrangements and payment of the share-based remuneration directed to the management of the company and the group companies. The Board of Directors is authorized to resolve on all other terms for the share issue and granting of the special rights entitling to shares. Due to the purpose of use of the authorization the Board of Directors is authorized to resolve on a directed share issue and issue of the special rights entitling to shares in deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive right. A directed share issue always requires a weighty economic reason for the Company and the authorization may not be utilized inconsistently with the principle of equal treatment of shareholders.

The authorization shall be effective until 30 June 2021.

17. Proposal of the Board of Directors on authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the acquisition of the Company's own Series A shares and/or on the acceptance as pledge of the Company's own Series A shares

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Board of Directors be authorized to decide on the purchase of the Company's own Series A shares and/or on the acceptance of the Company's own Series A shares as pledge as follows:

The aggregate number of own Series A shares to be acquired and/or accepted as pledge shall not exceed 4,700,000 Series A shares in total, which corresponds to approximately 4.70 percent of all the shares in the Company and approximately 5.00 percent of all the Series A shares in the Company. However, the Company together with its subsidiaries, cannot at any moment own and/or hold as pledge more than 10 percent of all the shares in the Company.

The Company's own Series A shares may be purchased based on the authorization only by using non-restricted equity, which consequently reduces the amount of the funds available for distribution of profits. The Company's own Series A shares may be purchased for a price quoted in public trading on the purchase day or for a price otherwise determined by the market.

The shares may be purchased under the proposed authorization to develop the capital structure of the Company. In addition, the shares may be repurchased under the proposed authorization to finance or carry out acquisitions or other arrangements, as a part of incentive schemes and payment of share-based remuneration or to be transferred for other purposes, or to be cancelled.

The Board of Directors shall resolve upon the method of purchase. Among other means, derivatives may be utilized in purchasing the shares. The shares may be purchased in a proportion other than that of the shares held by the shareholders (directed purchase). A directed purchase of the Company's own shares always requires a weighty economic reason for the Company and the authorization may not be utilized inconsistently with the principle of equal treatment of shareholders.

The authorization is effective until 30 June 2021.

The authorization revokes that granted on 11 April 2019 by the Annual General Meeting to the Board of Directors to acquire and/or to accept as pledge the company's own Series A shares.

18. Proposal of the Board of Directors on establishing shareholders' nomination board

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting decides to establish Shareholders' Nomination Board, which will in future be responsible for preparing the proposals to the Annual General Meeting for the election and remuneration of the members and deputy members of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting accepts the attached proposal for charter of the Shareholders' Nomination Board.

According to the proposal, the Nomination Board consists of at most four members, of which three represent the Company's largest shareholders who, on the last business day of May preceding the next Annual General Meeting, hold the largest number of votes calculated of all shares in the Company. In addition, the Chairman or the Deputy Chairman of the Board is a member of the Nomination Board.

The largest shareholders of the Company on the last business day of May are determined based on the shareholders' register of the Company held by Euroclear Finland Ltd. Pursuant to this shareholding, the Chairman of the Board of Directors shall request the three largest shareholders of the Company each to nominate one member to the Nomination Board. Holders of nominee registered shares shall be taken into account in the appointment process to the extent possible. If a shareholder who has distributed his/her holdings, for example, into several funds and has an obligation under the Finnish Securities Markets Act to take these holdings into account when disclosing changes in share of ownership, makes a written request to such effect to the Chairman of the Board of Directors, such shareholder's holdings in several funds or registers will be combined, when calculating the share of votes which determines the nomination right.

Should a shareholder not wish to use its nomination right, the right may be transferred by the Chairman of the Board of Directors to the next largest shareholder who would otherwise not have a nomination right.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors convenes the first meeting of the Nomination Board and acts as a Chairman of the Nomination Board until the Nomination Board has convened and elected a Chairman amongst its members. The representative of the largest shareholder shall be nominated as the Chairman of the Nomination Board, unless otherwise decided by the Nomination Board. The Chairman of the Nomination Board convenes the meetings thereafter.

The term of office of the members of the Nomination Board expires annually when the new Nomination Board has been appointed.
