In addition, a fee of EUR 600 will be paid for each Board meeting and Board Committee meeting. For Board members living outside Finland in Europe, the proposed fee for each meeting will be doubled, and for Board members living outside Europe, the proposed fee for each meeting will be tripled. For Board members living in Finland, the proposed fee for each Board and Board Committee meeting will be doubled for meetings held outside Finland and tripled for meetings held outside Europe. For Board and Committee meetings held as a telephone conference, the proposed fee will be paid as single to all members. No fee will be paid for decisions made without a separate meeting.

In accordance with the Shareholders' Nomination Board's proposal, the Annual General Meeting decided that the Board of Directors will consist of nine members, including the Chairman and the Deputy Chairman.
