This announcement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of securities in
any Member State of the European Economic Area, other than Finland, which has
implemented the Prospectus Directive (2003/71/EC, as amended, including by
Directive 2010/73/EU, the “Prospectus Directive”) (each, a “Relevant Member

to make any offer in that Relevant Member State of securities which are the
subject of the offering contemplated in this announcement, may only do so in
circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Company or any of the global

only and does not purport to be full or completed. No reliance may or should be
placed by any person for any purposes whatsoever on the information contained in
this announcement or on its completeness, accuracy or fairness. This
announcement does not constitute or form part of any offer or invitation to sell

In connection with the Company’s Listing and in accordance with all applicable
laws and rules, Nordea (the “Stabilisation Manager”) (or persons acting on its
behalf), has agreed that the State of Finland (the “Seller”) will grant the
Stabilisation Manager an option to over-allot shares or effect stabilization
transactions with a view to support the market price of the Company’s shares at
a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail (provided that the
aggregate principal number of the Company’s shares allotted does not exceed 15
per cent of the aggregate principal number of the offer shares in the Listing).
However, stabilisation action may not necessarily occur and may cease at any
time, and the Stabilisation Manager is not required to enter into such
transactions. Any stabilisation action may begin on or after the date of
commencement of trading in the shares on the Helsinki Stock Exchange and, if
begun, may be ended at any time, and such measures must be brought to an end
within 30 days of commencement of trading in the Company’s shares on the prelist
of the Helsinki Stock Exchange, which period is to occur between 23 March 2018
and 21 April 2018.
