annual remuneration be paid to the members of the Board of Directors for the
term of office ending at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting:

· Chairperson of the Board: EUR 105,000;
· Vice Chairperson of the Board and Chairpersons of permanent committees: EUR
73,500, unless the same person is Chairperson or Vice Chairperson of the Board;

determined in public trading at the Helsinki Stock Exchange (Nasdaq Helsinki
Ltd). The shares will be purchased within two weeks of the publication of the
interim report for the period January 1-March 31, 2026 or on the first possible
date under applicable law. The Company will pay any costs related to the
purchase of shares.

The Nomination Board recommends that members of the Board of Directors do not
divest the shares awarded to them as a fixed annual fee until their term on the
Board has expired. The Nomination Board views that long-term oriented and
increasing share ownership by the members of the Board of Directors benefits all
shareholders.

per meeting, also for meetings of the Board and its committees held via

office ending at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting following
their election: Jyri Luomakoski as Chairperson, Casimir Lindholm as Vice
Chairperson, and Anders Dahlblom, Sami Laine, Kerttu Tuomas and Leena Vainiomäki
as members.

With respect to the election procedure of the members of the Board of Directors,
the Nomination Board recommends that the shareholders take a position on the
proposal as a whole. In preparing its proposals, the Nomination Board, in
addition to ensuring that the individual nominees for membership of the Board of
Directors possess the required competences, has determined that the proposed
Board of Directors as a whole also has the best possible expertise for the
Company and that the composition of the Board of Directors meets all other
requirements of the law and the Finnish Corporate Governance Code for listed
companies.

All candidates have consented to being elected and are independent of the
Company and of its significant shareholders with the exception of Anders
Dahlblom, who is dependent on a significant shareholder of the Company.
