RAISIO'S CONVERTED SHARES

The Board of Directors of Raisio plc has decided in its meeting held on 26 June 2013 to convert a total of 23,650 restricted shares (series K) into free shares (series V). The decision has been entered in the Trade Register today, on 12 July 2013. The additional lot of free shares in question is admitted to trading on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd as of 15 July 2013.

Since the beginning of 2013, a total of 42,788 restricted shares of the company have been converted into free shares. The number of issued free shares is now 131,144,652 while the number of restricted shares is 34,004,378. The share capital entitles to 811,232,212 votes.

Since the conversion occurs between the two share classes, it does not affect the company’s registered share capital, which remains unaltered at EUR 27,776,072 and is divided into 165,149,030 shares.

The converted free shares have equal rights with the free shares issued earlier entitling to the right to the next succeeding profit to be shared as well as to other shareholder rights as of today.

Financial Supervisory Authority has by its decision on 29 May 1998 granted the company an exemption from obligation to publish a prospectus when an additional lot of free shares converted from restricted shares is admitted to trading on the stock exchange.
