The Board set up a Nomination and Compensation Committee to improve the efficiency of board work on 2.9.2015. The Board annually nominates at least three Committee Members and appoints one of them as Chairman of the Committee, and confirms the Committee's written charters. The Committee meets when necessary, however at a minimum three times a year. In 2015 the Committee consisted of Janne Näränen, Petri Rignell and Tapio Hakakari and it had two meetings.

The Committee also prepares the company's diversity policy.

In 2015 the Committee made proposals of the appointment of a Board Member and the compensation of the CEO.

The Board has stipulated that the Group's scope of operations does not necessitate the creation of a separate Audit Committee, and the Board will take care of its responsibilities. In this capacity, the Board meets the external auditor at least once a year without the members of the management employed by the Company. In the capacity of the Audit Committee, the Board's responsibilities include reviewing the Company's financial statements and interim reports, monitoring the internal control system, and seeing to internal and external audits.

2 CEO

According to the Finnish Companies Act, the CEO ensures that the accounting practices of the company comply with the law and that financial matters are handled in a reliable manner. The Board assesses the CEO's work and monitors the CEO's development in achieving set targets.

In 2015, Consti's CEO was Marko Holopainen. Marko Holopainen was born in 1967 and he is a Master of Science (Technology). At the end of the fiscal period the CEO owned 71,600 Consti Group Plc shares, which amounts to 0.91 percent of the company's shares and votes.

5 INTERNAL CONTROL OF THE FINANCIAL REPORTING PROCESS

Consti compiles its financial reporting in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the Securities Markets Act, the Finnish Accounting Act and the Finnish Accounting Board's guidelines and statements, while complying with the standards of the Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA) and the rules of NASDAQ Helsinki Ltd. The internal control and risk management principles, guidelines, practices and responsibilities pertaining to the company's financial reporting process, have been designed to ensure that the financial reports disclosed by Consti are reliable and meet the requirements of the law, regulations and company principles.

Instructions regarding the publication of financial information and external communications are included in Consti's disclosure policy approved by the Board of Directors. Its main principles are available on the company website at (www.consti.fi > Investors > Corporate Governance). Investor Relations together with Corporate Communications are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of and compliance with the policy.

Risk management

The central principle of Consti's risk management is continuous, systematic and pre-emptive action to identify risks, define the level of risk the company accepts, evaluate and handle risks and, in the event of risk realisation, see to their effective management and administration so that the company will meet its strategic and financial goals. Risk management is a part of the company's management, monitoring and reporting systems. Risk management includes risk identification, evaluation and risk contingency planning.

Consti's strategic and operative goals are used as a basis for identifying risks. Risk analysis and evaluations are conducted as self-assessments. The probability of a risk materialising and the impact this would have is evaluated on a scale of 1-3 as defined in the company's risk principles.

Consti's Board of Directors duty is to confirm the company's risk management principles and evaluate the adequacy and appropriateness of risk management. The CEO is responsible for the company's risk management and its organisation, allocating resources for the work and reviewing the risk management principles. The Group's Management Team is responsible for the actualisation of risk management, operative risk monitoring and risk related actions.

Financial and operational risks, as well as actions taken, are regularly reported to the Management Team. Strategic risks are handled annually together with the strategy. Risk reports are assessed by the Board, the Management Team and in the business areas' own management teams.

Central risks and risk management actions are reported yearly in the annual report and in interim reports.

Internal control

Internal control aims at protecting the company and its business areas' resources from wrongful use; it makes sure all business transaction are authorised in the necessary manner, supports IT system management and ensures the reliability of financial reporting. In Consti, internal control is foremost the responsibility of line management, which is supported by the Group's support functions. A third level of internal control is made up of internal and external audit, which confirm that the first two levels of control function efficiently.

Internal audit

Consti does not have a separate corporate audit function, as internal control responsibilities have been divided inside the corporation between different functions and areas. The Board may use external experts for

CONSTI

assessments regarding the control environment or separate operational evaluations. Consti's external auditor's audit plan takes into consideration that the company does not have a separate corporate audit function.

The CEO creates the foundation for internal control by leading and guiding top management and ensuring that the company's bookkeeping practice follow legislation and financial administration is managed reliably.

The Management Team is responsible for making sure that the organisation's different units have detailed internal control guidelines and procedures. The financial administration staff have an especially important role, as its control actions span all of the company's operational and other units.

The Group's financial administration helps units create appropriate control procedures. It also guides the company's risk management process and reports on its execution to management and monitors the internal control procedures' efficiency and effectiveness in practise.

The business areas' management sees that all of the units and employees that are their responsibility follow the appropriate laws, regulation and internal guidelines.

Financial reporting process

Internal control efficiency regarding financial reporting is overseen by the Board of Directors, and also the CEO and Group and business area Management Teams. Internal control measures, such as reconciliations, logic analyses and comparative analyses are conducted on an organisational level. The purpose of these control measures is to detect, prevent and correct any errors and deviations in financial follow-up.

Consti's financial reporting is based on monthly performance monitoring in a centralised reporting system. Financial reports are handled first at the reporting unit level, then in the Management Teams of the business area and finally in the Group's Management Team. The Board of Directors also receives a monthly report on financial figures. Controllers report any deviations from the plans to the Management Teams, analyse the reasons for such deviations and support the management in decision-making. Monthly reviews also ensure that performance is in line with annual targets and financial forecasts are up to date. Financial administration aims to harmonise the work practises of controllers and ensure guidelines are interpreted consistently throughout the organisation, and also further improve the guidelines.

6 INSIDER MANAGEMENT

Consti applies the insider guidelines of NASDAQ Helsinki Ltd, in addition to which Consti's Board has approved internal insider regulations that are based on the said guidelines.

In compliance with the Finnish Securities Markets Act, Consti's permanent public insider register comprises, due to their positions, the Members of the Board, the CEO and the auditors and, by definition of the company, the Members of the Management Team.
