the Company. 
 
The authorisation also includes the right to issue special rights, in the

to the Company's new shares or the Company's own shares held by the Company 
against consideration.

shareholders subject to the conditions mentioned in the Finnish Companies 
Act. The Board can use the authorisation in one or several tranches to all 
purposes decided by the Board of Directors.
