The travel expenses of Board members are compensated in accordance with the Company's travel policy.

Further, the Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that the annual fee for the Board work of the Board members be paid in Company shares and in cash in such a way that approximately 40% of the amount of the annual fee be payable in shares acquired on behalf and in the name of the Board members, and the remainder in cash. The Company will pay the costs and the transfer tax related to the purchase of the Company shares.

The shares will be acquired on behalf and in the name of the Board members within two weeks following the publication of the Company's first quarter 2026 interim report. If share purchases cannot be carried out within the aforementioned schedule due to a reason related to the Company or a Board member, the shares will be acquired later, or the annual fee will be paid fully in cash. The meeting fees are proposed to be paid fully in cash.

In accordance with the charter of the Shareholders Nomination Board and the Corporate Governance Code applicable to companies listed at Nasdaq Helsinki, the task of the Shareholders' Nomination Board is to ensure that the proposed Board as a whole possesses extensive competences and experience relevant for the Company, in addition to ensuring the qualifications of the individual board member candidates.
