Proposals to the Annual General Meeting of Municipality Finance Plc

Municipality Finance Plc’s (hereinafter MuniFin) Board of Directors (the Board) and the Shareholders’ Nomination Committee (the Nomination Committee) have made the following proposals to the Annual General Meeting (the AGM) convening on 26 March 2026 at 13:00 (EET):

Use of profit shown on the balance sheet and the distribution of dividend

MuniFin has distributable funds of EUR 373,789,862.97 of which the profit for the financial year totaled EUR 73,118,239,78.

In accordance with the dividend policy MuniFin’s aim is to pay 30-60% of the Group’s financial year’s profit in dividends. The Board proposes to the AGM that a dividend of EUR 1.83 per share, totaling EUR 71,486,750.34 shall be distributed based on the balance sheet to be adopted for 2025. This corresponds to 46.4% of the Group's financial year's profit.

MuniFin’s result for the financial year was strong. The Board of considers the payment of the proposed dividend to be justified. MuniFin clearly exceeds all the prudential requirements set for it. The company’s financial position has remained strong after the end of the financial year. According to the Board’s assessment, the proposed distribution of profits does not place the fulfilment of the capital requirements or the company’s liquidity in jeopardy or conflict with binding legislation.

The dividend is paid to a shareholder who is registered in the company's shareholder register maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd on the record date of dividend payment on 30 March 2026. The Board proposes that the dividend be paid 9 Aprill 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter.

• For each Board and committee meeting as well as for each meeting required by the authorities, to the members and Vice chair of the Board, a fee of EUR 600 per meeting attended and to the Chairs, EUR 950 per meeting attended
