A. Remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors

 The remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors is proposed to be given in a combination of Lehto Group Plc shares and cash. The yearly remuneration that would be paid in such a way would remain the same as last year:

• The remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors shall be made in Lehto Group Plc shares and in cash, with approximately 40 per cent of the remuneration paid in shares and the remainer in cash. The Members of the Board of Directors shall be given either shares that are in the Company's possession or alternatively shares shall be acquired from the regulated market (Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd) at a price determined by public trading, in the name and on behalf of the Member of the Board of Directors. The shares shall be acquired as soon as possible from the Annual General Meeting accepting the proposal.
• Chairman of the Board of Directors EUR 69,000
• Deputy Chairman and members of the Board of Directors EUR 34,500

The amount of the shares to be transferred from the Company's possession would be calculated by dividing the remuneration determined based on the medium rate of a share during the ten following banking days from the Annual General Meeting accepting the proposal and rounding the amount down to the next whole number.

The Members of the Board shall not dispose such shares during his/her membership or before six months has passed from the expiry of the said membership.

Shall the member of the Board of Directors notify the CFO of the Company within three banking days from the Annual General Meeting, in writing, that he/she shall abstain from accepting the Lehto Group Plc shares, the remuneration shall be paid entirely in cash. The yearly remuneration that would be paid in such case would remain the same as last year:

Martti Karppinen and Pertti Korhonen have announced that they will not be available for re-election due to time constraints.

At their consent, as the new members of the Board of Directors the Shareholders' Nomination Committee proposes Helena Säteri and Raimo Lehtiö.

During his career Mr. Lehtiö has acted in directorial positions in groups such as ABB and Scania and his latest position has been a Managing Director of Scania South Africa (Pty) Ltd.

12. Auditor

A. The auditor's fee

The Board of Directors proposes that the auditor's fee be paid on the basis of an invoice approved by the company. In 2019, the auditor was paid approximately EUR 244,000 for services rendered. In addition to this, the audit firm was paid EUR 164,000 for services other than auditing services.

B. Election of an auditor

The Board of Directors proposes that audit firm KPMG Oy Ab be re-elected as the auditor and that the Annual General Meeting ask the auditor for a statement regarding the confirmation of the annual financial statement, granting discharge and the Board's proposal for asset sharing. KPMG Oy Ab has informed the company that C.A. Pekka Alatalo would act as the chief auditor. The proposed auditor has consented to the election.

13. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the purchase of the company's own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorise the Board to decide on the purchase of the company's own shares as one or several instalments using assets belonging to the shareholders' surplus, such that the maximum quantity purchased be 5,320,000 shares. On the date of the notice of meeting, the proposed quantity, together with the proposition number 14, equals approximately ten (10) per cent of the company's entire shares. The shares shall be purchased through public trading organised by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd in accordance with its rules or using another method. The consideration paid for the purchased shares should be based on the market price.

The authorisation also entitles the Board of Directors to decide on the purchase of shares other than in proportion to the shares owned by the shareholders (directed purchase). Then, there should be sound financial reasons for the company to purchase its own shares. Shares can be purchased to implement arrangements linked to the company's business operations, or otherwise to transfer or invalidate. The purchased shares can also be stored by the company.

The Board of Directors is authorised to make decisions on all other conditions and circumstances pertaining to the purchase of own shares. The purchase of own shares reduces the shareholders' surplus.

The authorisation is proposed to remain valid until the end of the following annual general meeting but in any case, not longer than 30[th] June 2021.

14. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the purchase of the company's own shares to execute the company's share-based incentive systems

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorise the Board to decide on the purchase of the company's own shares as one or several instalments using assets belonging to the shareholders' surplus, such that the maximum quantity purchased be 480,000 shares. The shares shall be purchased through public trading organised by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd in accordance with its rules or using another method. The consideration paid for the purchased shares should be based on the market price.

The authorisation also entitles the Board of Directors to decide on the purchase of shares other than in proportion to the shares owned by the shareholders (directed purchase). Then, there should be sound financial reasons for the company to purchase its own shares. Shares can be purchased to execute the company's share-based incentive systems.

The Board of Directors is authorised to make decisions on all other conditions and circumstances pertaining to the purchase of own shares. The purchase of own shares reduces the shareholders' surplus.

The authorisation is proposed to remain valid until 30[th] June 2023.

15. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on a share issue, on the issuance of options and other special rights entitling to shares, as well as the transfer of own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the AGM authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the issue of a maximum of 5,320,000 shares through a share issue or by granting rights of option or other special rights entitling to shares as one or several instalments. The authorisation includes the right to issue either new shares or own shares held by the company either against payment or without consideration. In contrast to the company's shareholders' privilege, new shares can be directly issued and own shares held by the company directly transferred if there is a weighty financial reason for it from the company's point of view or, in case of an issue without consideration, a particularly weighty financial reason from the company's point of view and the benefit of all its shareholders. The Board of Directors is authorised to decide on all other conditions and circumstances pertaining to a share issue, to the granting of special rights entitling to shares, and to the transfer of shares.

Among other things, the authorisation can be used to develop the capital structure, to expand the ownership base, to use as consideration in transactions, or when the company purchases assets linked to its operations.

The authorisation is proposed to be valid until the end of the following annual general meeting but in any case, no later than 30[th] June 2021. The authorisation shall replace the company's previous share issue and option authorisations.
