The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Board of Directors is authorized to decide on the re-purchase of the company’s own shares as follows:
The Board of Directors is authorized to decide on the purchase of a maximum of five million (5,000,000) company shares, which account for approximately 7.6% of all shares of the company at the time of publication that summons the Annual General Meeting. Company shares will be purchased with funds from the company’s non restricted equity, in which case the acquisition will decrease the company’s distributable non-restricted equity. The decision to purchase own shares may not be made in such a way that the total number of own shares held or pledged by the company and its subsidiaries exceeds one tenth of all shares.
The shares will be acquired otherwise than in proportion to the share ownership of the shareholders via public trading arranged by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd at the market price on the date on which the acquisition is made or otherwise at a price formed on the market.
The shares can be purchased to develop the company’s capital structure, to be used as remuneration in corporate acquisitions or the funding of other business arrangements, or as part of the company’s incentive system or otherwise to be forwarded, to be retained by the company, or to be annulled. The Board of Directors will decide on other matters related to the acquisition of the company’s shares.
The authorization cancels the authorization given in the Annual General Meeting on 25 April 2025 to repurchase the company’s own shares. The authorization is valid for 18 months from when it was granted.
19. Authorisation of the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares, options and other special rights entitling their holders to shares
The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorizes the Board to decide on giving or granting shares, and issue special rights entitling to shares as referred in Chapter 10 Section 1 of the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act with the following terms:
The shares and special rights entitling to shares can be given through one or more issues with or without a consideration.
The number of shares to be issued based on the authorization can be no more than 12,000,000 shares, including special rights entitling to shares, which accounts for approximately 18.3% of all of the company’s shares at the time of publication that summons the Annual General Meeting.
The Board shall decide on the terms and conditions of share issues and special rights entitling to shares. The authorization applies to both the issue of new shares and the transfer of own shares. Share issues and granting special rights entitling to shares can be issued in deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights if the company has a weighty financial reason (directed share issue). Directed share issue can be carried out without consideration only if it is beneficial to the company and all of its shareholders and it has an especially weighty financial reason.
The authorization cancels the authorization given in the Annual General Meeting on 25 April 2025 to decide on share issues and the issue of special rights entitling their holders to shares. The authorization shall be valid until 30 June 2027.
For reasons of clarity the authorization granted to the Board of Directors in this section to decide on share issue, granting of option rights and the issue of special rights entitling their holders to shares will neither cancel nor replace: (i) the earlier authorizations granted to the Board to decide on issue of option rights or other special rights entitling their holders to shares (among others but without limitation to authorization registered on 5 July 2022 at 12:55:56 maximum of 1,200,000 pcs of shares and authorization registered on 15 May 2025 at 06:32:52 maximum of 1,200,000 pcs of shares), (ii) already registered option and special rights entitling their holders to shares decisions (decisions registered P007 (10.12.2019/11:47:45), P008 (19.11.2020/10:23:20) and P009 (11.01.2022/15:26:55), P010 (05.05.2022/12:11:50) and P011 (21.11.2022 00:01:37)), which remain in force.
