The committee decided that Lars Förberg shall act as Chairman. Markku Pohjola, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Tieto, serves as the fifth member.

The SNB convened six times and provided Tieto's Board of Directors on 22 January 2012 with its proposals for the AGM 2012. The SNB proposes that the Board of Directors shall have eight members and that the current Board members Kurt Jofs, Eva Lindqvist, Risto Perttunen, Markku Pohjola and Teuvo Salminen be re-elected and in addition, Sari Pajari, Ilkka Sihvo and Jonas Synnergren are proposed to be elected as new Board members. The current Board members Christer Gardell and Olli Riikkala have informed that they will not be available for re-election.

Sari Pajari (born 1968) acts currently as Senior Vice President, Business Development at M-real Corporation and is a member of the company's Corporate Management Team. She is the former CIO of Metsäliitto Group and in addition, has had various positions at IBM, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Jaakko Pöyry Consulting. She holds a MSc.

The biographical details of the candidates and information on their holdings in Tieto are available on the company's website (www.tieto.com/Proposal).

The SNB proposes that the remuneration of the Board of Directors be as follows: EUR 31 500 to the ordinary members of the Board of Directors, EUR 48 000 to the Deputy Chairman and EUR 72 000 to the Chairman. The same fee as to the Board Deputy Chairman will be paid to the Chairman of a Board committee unless the same individual is also the Chairman or Deputy Chairman of the Board. In addition to these fees, it is proposed that the member of the Board of Directors be paid a remuneration of EUR 800 for each Board meeting and for each permanent or temporary committee meeting.

Further, the SNB proposes that 40% of the fixed annual remuneration be paid in Tieto Corporation's shares purchased from the market. The shares will be purchased within two weeks from the release of the first-quarter interim report (1 January–31 March 2012). According to the proposal, the AGM will resolve to acquire the shares directly on behalf of the members of the Board which is an approved manner to acquire the company's shares in accordance with the applicable insider rules. The SNB is of the opinion that increasing long-term shareholding of the Board members will benefit all shareholders.

Internal control, risk management and internal audit

Internal control and risk management framework

Tieto's internal control framework supports the execution of the strategy and ensures regulatory compliance. The foundation for internal control is set by internal control, risk management and governance policies as well as Tieto's values and Code of Conduct.

The aim of Tieto's internal control framework is to assure that operations are effective and efficiently aligned with the strategic goals and to ensure reliable, complete and timely financial reporting and management information as well as compliance with applicable legislation and regulations. The framework endorses ethical values, good corporate governance and risk management practices.

Tieto uses risk management as a means of developing business operations and their profitability and ensuring the continuity of successful business operations. The role of risk management is to maintain the company's risk management framework and report risk exposures consisting of strategic, financial and operational risks.

The activities related to internal control and risk management are part of Tieto's management practices and integrated into the business and planning processes defined in the

Tieto's internal control in 2011

In 2011, Tieto's risk management has concentrated on mapping out the strategic, financial and operational risks throughout the organi-

zation. The main focus of Tieto's Internal Audit was on the analysis of the efficiency of risk management in service deliveries, business integration in various countries of operation and the business continuity. Furthermore, all Finance process controls were analysed from a risk mitigation perspective during the year. The ongoing next step in this effort is to embed the risk management activities in organizational governance and business processes.

Auditing

AGM 2011 re-elected the firm of authorized public accountants PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy as the company's auditor for the financial year 2011. PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy notified the company that authorized public accountant Kim Karhu acts as chief auditor. In 2011, Tieto Group paid the auditors a total of EUR 1.3 (1.4) million in audit fees, of which EUR 1.2 (1.3) million to the Group's auditor Pricewaterhouse-Coopers Oy, and a total of EUR 0.5 (0.9) million for consulting, of which EUR 0.4 (0.7) million to the Group's auditor.

company's W2E (Way to Excellence) business system. The framework consists of Tieto's policies, procedures, operating principles and guidelines. The owner of each process is responsible for the continuous development of the established procedures, including internal control and risk management. The CFO has the responsibility to arrange and lead Tieto's risk management. The ARC monitors the efficiency of the company's internal control, risk management and internal audit.

Internal control and risk management pertaining to financial reporting

The purpose of internal control over financial reporting is to ensure the correctness of financial reporting, including interim and annual reports, and the compliance of financial reporting with regulatory requirements. Tieto's ARC has the oversight role in Tieto's external financial reporting.

Financial reporting process and responsibilities

Tieto has a common accounting and reporting platform, Tieto ERP. Group consolidation and reporting are based on the reporting system, which facilitates common control requirements for all cost centres and legal entities reporting to the Group. Financial reporting consists of monthly performance reports, including all the key performance indicators, rolling forecasts and interim financial reports.

Tieto has documented the key financial process flows, such as order to cash, purchase to pay, record to report, master data management and accounting system access and role management. Processes are headed by a process owner.

Tieto has organized its finance functions under Global Services, Country Units and Group Reporting. The Global Services function is in charge of centralized shared finance operations and the development of common finance processes and tools. It also has the ownership of finance policies and rules as well as the responsibility for process performance and operational compliance.

Finance Country Units are responsible for implementing global practices, processes, tools, policies and rules in local operations. They are also responsible for executing local requirements set by the authorities.

Tieto's Group Reporting function leads and coordinates financial reporting and ensures that accounting procedures conform to generally accepted accounting principles. It serves as the key legislative liaison for the Group's financial issues and executes operative follow-up of the adequacy and effectiveness of control activities.

Information and releases concerning the internal financial guidelines and schedules are available on Tieto's intranet

to all employees concerned. All the financial processes described are available in the company's W2E business system.

Monitoring activities of financial reporting

Financial reports are regularly reviewed by the Leadership Team and the Board of Directors. The follow-up is based on a thorough comparison of the actual figures with the set objectives, forecasts and previous periods. If the figures deviate, the Leadership Team members are responsible for initiating corrective actions.

The ARC can assign individual audit engagements to the company's Internal Audit function related to the internal control and risk management systems of the financial reporting process. The committee also reviews interim and annual reports. Tieto's Board of Directors approves the financial reports.

Internal audit

Tieto's Internal Audit function carries out both business and internal audit activities. Business audit activities aim to ensure the efficiency and appropriateness of Tieto's operations. Internal audit activities are intended to assess and assure the adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls within Tieto. The internal audit is carried out independently and it reports to the CFO, the President and CEO and the ARC. The charter and annual internal audit plan are approved by the ARC.

Auditors

The ARC prepares a proposal on the appointment of Tieto's auditors, which is then presented to the AGM for its decision. The compensation paid to the auditors is decided by the AGM and assessed annually by the ARC.

Remuneration

The aim of Tieto's remuneration principles is to attract and retain talent, motivate key people and align the goals of the company's shareholders and executives in order to enhance the value of the company.

Rules for how the company shall compensate its employees are defined in Tieto's Compensation & Benefits policy. The policy is globally applied at all Tieto entities and units to support the company's strategy, objectives and values.

Remuneration of the Board of Directors is decided by the AGM of Tieto based on a proposal by the SNB. The RC is responsible for planning the remuneration of the Leadership Team members and preparing the principles underlying the remuneration of Tieto personnel. The Board of Directors decides on the remuneration of the President and CEO and other members of the Leadership Team based on a proposal by the RC.

EUR 45 600 to the Deputy Chairman and
EUR 68 400 to the Chairman.

The same fee as to the Board Deputy Chairman will be paid to the Chairman of a Board Committee unless the same individual is also the Chairman or Deputy Chairman of the Board. In addition, a remuneration of EUR 800 is paid for each Board meeting and for each permanent or temporary committee meeting.

Further, the AGM 2011 decided that 40% of the fixed annual remuneration will be paid in Tieto Corporation's shares purchased from the market. No restrictions have been set on Board members concerning how they may assign these shares, but the company recommends that Board members should retain ownership of all the shares they have received as remuneration for as long as they serve on Tieto's Board.

In addition to the aforementioned share remuneration, the Board members do not belong to or are not compensated with other share-based arrangements, nor do the members have any pension plans at Tieto. Tieto executives or employees are not entitled to compensation for their Board positions or meeting attendance in the Group companies. None of the Board members, except the personnel representatives, have an employment relationship or service contract with Tieto.

Remuneration of the Leadership Team

Remuneration of the Leadership Team members consists of

base salary and benefits
short-term incentives: an annual bonus
long-term incentives, such as option or other share-based programmes and pension plans.

Short-term incentives

The purpose of the annual bonuses is to reward performance that surpasses expectations. Tieto's bonus system is based on clear measurable targets set for the company's financial performance (external revenue and profit) and strategy implementation. Weighting of the reward factors for the President and CEO and other Leadership Team members is described in a separate table.

The reward targets are set annually by the Board of Directors. The bonus for the President and CEO and the other Leadership Team members is 30% of the annual base salary when the targets are met and the maximum bonus is 60%. The amount of bonuses is decided by the Board of Directors after the financial statements have been prepared and the bonuses are then paid by the end of April.

Share-based long-term incentives

Tieto has two types of share-based long-term incentive arrangements: the Long-Term Incentive Programmes and option programmes.

The terms and conditions of the share plans are approved by the Board of Directors. The programme for 2009–2011 covers Leadership Team members. In December 2011, the Board decided on establishing a new Long-Term Incentive Programme 2012–2014 for the Leadership Team members and approximately 190 key employees. 30) The authorizations required by the Board to perform repurchase of the company's own shares and to issue shares shall be proposed to be approved at the AGM 2012. Key principles of Tieto's share plans, such as the basis and size of rewards, are described on company's website ().

The terms and conditions of option programmes are approved by the AGM and option allocations are approved by the Board of Directors with a view to reward individual performance. The current programmes cover Leadership Team and around 500 employees. Further information about Tieto's option programmes is available on company's website (www.tieto.com/Investors).

Pension plans

Tieto operates a number of different pension plans in accordance with national requirements and practices. In addition to statutory pension plans, most Leadership Team members are provided with additional pension schemes.

The additional schemes are classified as defined contribution plans; the exception is the scheme of one member who is covered by a fund-based pension system previously adopted by Tieto. In defined contribution-based plans, the payments to the plans are recognized as expenses for the period to which they relate. After the payment of the contribution, the company has no further obligations in respect of such plans.

Regarding most of the Leadership Team members who are based in Finland and have no earlier additional pension plans, annual payments to the plans managed by a pension insurance company amount to 15% or 23% of the participant's annual base salary. The accumulated pension, including return on capital investment, is paid to the participant during a 20-year period starting at the age of 60–70, as individually decided by the participant.

The annual expenditure related to the pension plans of the President and CEO and CFO amounts to 23% of their annual base salary, while that of most other Leadership Team members (based in Finland) with no earlier pension plans amounts to 15% of their annual base salary.

The company provides members based outside Finland with individual defined contribution-based pension plans according to local practices.
