15. Election of auditor

The Board of Directors’ Audit Committee has prepared its recommendation in accordance with the EU Audit Regulation (537/2014) and organized an audit firm selection procedure. The Committee has reviewed several potential audit firm candidates based on predetermined selection criteria and identified PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy and KPMG Oy Ab as the best candidates. After careful consideration based on the selection criteria, PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy became the Committee’s preference and recommended audit firm for a term that will continue until the end of the next Annual General Meeting.

The Board of Directors’ Audit Committee confirms that its recommendation is free from influence by a third party and that no clause of kind referred to in paragraph 6 of Article 16 of the EU Audit Regulation, which would restrict the choice by the Annual General Meeting as regards the appointment of the auditor, has been imposed upon it.

The Board of Directors’ Audit Committee proposes to the Annual General Meeting that PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy, Authorized Public Accountants firm, be elected as the Company’s auditor for a term that will continue until the end of the next Annual General Meeting. PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy has notified the Company that Mikko Nieminen, Authorized Public Accountant, would be the auditor-in-charge.

16. Authorization of the Board of Directors to resolve on the repurchase of the Company’s own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorizes the Board of Directors to resolve on the repurchase of a maximum of 4,535,453 shares in one or several instalments using the unrestricted equity of the Company, however taking into account the provisions of the Finnish Companies Act on the maximum number of the treasury shares held by the Company or its subsidiaries. The proposed number of shares represents a maximum of approximately ten (10) per cent of the total number of the shares in the Company.

The authorization includes the right of the Board of Directors to resolve on all other terms and conditions of the repurchase of the shares, including the repurchase of shares in another proportion than that of the existing shareholdings of the shareholders (the directed repurchase). The shares can be repurchased on the trading venues where the Company’s shares are traded at the market price of the time of the repurchase, or at the price otherwise established on the market at the time of the repurchase.

Shares may be repurchased for the purposes of improving the Company’s capital structure, financing or carrying out corporate acquisitions or other arrangements, implementing prospective incentive and remuneration schemes, or to be otherwise transferred further, retained as treasury shares or cancelled.

It is proposed that the authorization be valid until the close of the following Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than until 30 June 2024. The authorization revokes previous unused authorizations for the repurchase of the Company’s own shares.

17. Authorization of the Board of Directors to resolve on the issuance of shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorizes the Board of Directors to resolve on a share issue by one or several resolutions. A maximum of 4,535,453 shares may be issued on the basis of the authorization. The proposed maximum authorized number represents approximately ten (10) per cent of the total number of the shares in the Company. The Board of Directors may resolve to issue either new shares or transfer the treasury shares held by the Company.

The Board of Directors resolves on all the terms and conditions of the share issue, including the deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emption rights for a weighty financial reason. The authorization may be used to improve the Company’s capital structure, to finance or carry out corporate acquisitions or other arrangements, to implement prospective incentive and remuneration schemes or to be used for other purposes resolved by the Board of Directors.

It is proposed that the authorization be valid until the close of the following Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than until 30 June 2024. The authorization revokes previous unused share issue authorizations.

18. Amendment of the Articles of Association

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that Article 7 of the Articles of Association be amended such that, if the Board of Directors so resolve, the general meeting may be held entirely without a meeting venue as a so-called remote meeting and that the reference in Article 7 to the publication of information about the delivered notice to the general meeting in a newspaper be removed.

Furthermore, the Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that Article 8 be amended such that the Annual General Meeting shall also resolve, in addition to the items currently listed in Article 8, on the adoption of the remuneration policy, when necessary, and on the adoption of the remuneration report, and that the numbering of current sub-items 4−8 of Article 8 be changed accordingly due to the above-mentioned amendments.

In their amended forms, said provisions of the Articles of Association would read as follows:
