Proposal for the remuneration of the Board of Directors
The Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the annual remuneration of the Members of the Board of Directors remains unchanged and thus is the following:  

-          Chair of the Board EUR 74,000,

-          Deputy Chair of the Board EUR 45,000,

-          other Members of the Board EUR 35,000.

The Nomination Board proposes that a member of the Board of Directors may, at his/her discretion, choose to receive the annual fixed remuneration partly in company shares and partly in cash so that approximately 40% of the annual fixed remuneration is paid in Glaston Corporation's shares. The number of shares forming the above remuneration portion, which would be payable in shares, will be determined based on the share value in the stock exchange trading maintained by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd, calculated as the trade volume weighted average quotation of the share during the one-month period immediately following the date on which the interim report of January−March 2026 of the company is published.

In addition, the Nomination Board proposes that meeting fees shall be paid in accordance with earlier practice for each meeting of the Board of Directors that a Member of the Board has attended as follows:
 

-          EUR 800 to the Chair of the Board for meetings held in the Chair's home country and EUR 1,500 for meetings held elsewhere

-          EUR 500 to other Members of the Board for meetings held in the home country of the respective Member and EUR 1,000 for meetings held elsewhere

-          for per capsulam Board Meetings half of the normal fee shall be paid.

Furthermore, it is proposed that each Member of the Board shall be compensated for travel and accommodation costs and direct expenses arising from their work for the Board of Directors in line with the company's normal practice, as well as paying the mandatory social security and/or insurance contributions related to the board remuneration based on the local regulations of Member of the Board's domicile.

Furthermore, the Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the meeting fee for the People and Remuneration and Audit Committees shall remain unchanged. Thus it is proposed that the Chair of the Audit Committee shall be paid annual remuneration of EUR 10,000 and the Chair of the People and Remuneration Committee annual remuneration of EUR 7,500, and in addition, a meeting fee shall be paid to all Committee Members for each meeting they attended, of EUR 500  for meetings held in the home country of the respective Member and EUR 1,000 for meetings held elsewhere.

Chair of the Board of Directors Veli-Matti Reinikkala did not participate in decision-making when the Nomination Board made its proposal on the number of the Members of the Board of Directors and on the Board of Directors' composition and remuneration.
