The subscription period for the Offer Shares that are not subscribed for after the Secondary Subscription will end on 28 June 2017 and these Offer Shares shall be paid in full at the time of submitting the subscription assignment.

Cancellation of subscriptions under certain circumstances

If the prospectus for the Offering (the "Prospectus") is supplemented or corrected due to a mistake or inaccuracy or material new information which could be of material relevance to the investors, any Subscribers who have already agreed to subscribe for Offer Shares before the related supplement is published, shall have the right to cancel their subscriptions in accordance with the Finnish Securities Markets Act (746/2012, as amended). The Subscribers have a right to cancel their subscriptions within two (2) banking days after the supplement has been published. The cancellation right requires that the mistake, inaccuracy or material new information has emerged before the trading in the interim shares representing the Offer Shares has begun or, in case of Secondary Subscription, before the Offer Shares have been delivered to the Subscribers. The cancellation of a subscription applies to the subscription to be cancelled as a whole. The right to cancellation and the procedure for such cancellation right will be announced together with any such possible supplement to the Prospectus through a stock exchange release. If the holder of a Subscription Right has sold or otherwise transferred the Subscription Right, such sale or transfer cannot be cancelled.

Trading in the Subscription Rights

The holders of Subscription Rights may sell their Subscription Rights any time before the trading in the Subscription Rights ends. The Subscription Rights are subject to trading on the Helsinki Stock Exchange between 7 June 2017 at 10.00 am Finnish time and 15 June 2017 at 6.25 pm Finnish time. Subscription Rights may be sold or purchased by giving a sell or purchase assignment to one's own book-entry account operator or to any securities broker.

Approval of the subscriptions

The Board of Directors of the Company will approve all subscriptions pursuant to the Primary Subscription Right made in accordance with these terms and conditions of the Offering and applicable laws and regulations.

If all Offer Shares to be issued in the Offering have not been subscribed for by virtue of the Primary Subscription Right, the Board of Directors of the Company will resolve to allocate such unsubscribed Offer Shares among the Subscribers having made a Secondary Subscription. In case of over-subscription by virtue of Secondary Subscription, the allocation among Subscribers will be determined per book-entry account in proportion to the number of Subscription Rights exercised by Subscribers in accordance with the Primary Subscription Right and, where this is not possible, by drawing of lots. If several subscription assignments are given concerning a certain book-entry account, these subscription assignments are combined as one subscription assignment concerning a certain book-entry account. Should the Subscriber not receive all Offer Shares subscribed for by virtue of the Secondary Subscription, the Subscription Price for the Offer Shares not received by the Subscriber will be repaid to the Subscriber no later than on or about 3 July 2017. No interest will be paid for the repayable funds.

If all Offer Shares to be issued in the Offering have not been subscribed after the Secondary Subscription, the Board of Directors of the Company may allocate such unsubscribed Offer Shares among the Subscribers having made a Primary Subscription as decided by the Board of Directors.

The Company's Board of Directors will decide on the approval of the subscriptions on or about 28 June 2017. The Company will publish the final result of the Offering in a stock exchange release on or about 28 June 2017.

Registration of the Offer Shares to the book-entry accounts

Each party submitting a subscription assignment shall have a book-entry account with a Finnish account operator or with an account operator operating in Finland. The book-entry account number shall be included in the subscription assignment. The identity number, book-entry account number and other personal data relevant for the subscription assignment may be passed also to other persons participating in the execution of the assignment or tasks relating to the Offering. 

The Offer Shares subscribed for in the Offering by virtue of the Primary Subscription Right will be recorded on the Subscriber's book-entry account after the registration of the subscription as interim shares (ISIN Code FI4000261466) corresponding to the Offer Shares. The interim shares will be admitted to trading on or about 22 June 2017. The interim shares will be combined with the Existing Shares of the Company (ISIN Code FI0009007983) on or about 28 June 2017. The Offer Shares subscribed for and approved in the Secondary Subscription will be recorded on the Subscribers' book-entry accounts after the registration of Offer Shares in the Trade Register, on or about 28 June 2017.

Shareholder rights

The Offer Shares will entitle their holders to full dividend and other distribution of funds declared by the Company, if any, and to other shareholder rights in the Company when the Offer Shares have been registered in the Trade Register and in the Company's shareholder register, on or about 28 June 2017. For the financial year ended 31 December 2016, the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on 16 March 2017 decided on distribution of dividend of EUR 0.08 per share. The record date for the 2015 dividend distribution was 20 March 2017 and the dividend was paid on 29 March 2017. Thus, the Offer Shares subscribed for in the Offering do not entitle to the dividend for the financial year 2016 decided by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on 16 March 2017.

Fees and expenses

No transfer tax or service charges are payable for the subscription of the Offer Shares. Custodians, account operators and brokers may charge a commission for trading in the Subscription Rights in accordance with their own price list. Each custodian and account operator will charge fees in accordance with its own price list for maintaining the book-entry account and for the custody of the shares.

Information

Documents mentioned in Chapter 5, Section 21 of the Finnish Companies Act are available for review as of the start of the Subscription Period on the Company's website at www.digia.com/anti2017.

Applicable law and dispute resolution

The Offering and the Offer Shares shall be governed by the laws of Finland. Any disputes arising in connection with the Offering shall be settled by the court of jurisdiction in Finland.

In case of any discrepancies between the original Finnish language version and the English language translation of these terms and conditions, the Finnish language version shall prevail.

Other issues

Other issues and practical matters relating to the Offering will be resolved by the Board of Directors of the Company.
