the CEO from liability
10 Presentation and adoption of the Remuneration Report
The Board of Directors presents the Remuneration Report for the company's
governing bodies for the financial year 2024 and proposes that the Annual
General Meeting adopts the report through an advisory decision. The published
Remuneration Report and the company's current Remuneration Policy are available
on the company's website at tietoevry.com/agm.
11 Resolution on the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors
The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that the annual fees payable to the
members of the Board of Directors elected by the Annual General Meeting be as
follows:
? EUR 140 200 to the Chairperson (2024: EUR 137 500, increase of
approximately 2.0%),
? EUR 75 000 to the Deputy Chairperson (2023: EUR 73 500, increase of
approximately 2.0%),
? EUR 56 700 to the ordinary members (2023: EUR 55 600, increase of
approximately 2.0%).
In addition to these fees, it is proposed that the Chairperson of a permanent
Board committee be paid, in accordance with previous practice, an annual fee of
EUR 20 000, and a member of a permanent Board committee be paid an annual fee of
EUR 10 000. It is also proposed that the members elected by the Annual General
Meeting will be paid, in accordance with previous practice, EUR 800 for each
Board meeting and for each permanent or temporary committee meeting. Further, it
is proposed that the employee representatives elected as ordinary members of the
Board of Directors be paid an annual fee of EUR 15 600 (2024: EUR 15 300,
increase of approximately 2.0%) and the employee representatives elected as
deputy members of the Board of Directors be paid an annual fee of EUR 7 800
(2024: EUR 7 650, increase of approximately 2.0%).
The Shareholders' Nomination Board is of the opinion that the long-term
shareholding of Board members will benefit all the shareholders. Every member of
the Board of Directors elected by the Annual General Meeting is expected to over
a five-year period accumulate a shareholding in the company that exceeds their
one-time annual remuneration.
The Shareholders' Nomination Board therefore proposes that part of the annual
remuneration may be paid in the company's shares purchased from the market. An
elected member of the Board of Directors may, at their discretion, choose from
the following five alternatives:
· No cash, 100% in shares
· 25% in cash, 75% in shares
· 50% in cash, 50% in shares
· 75% in cash, 25% in shares, or
· 100% in cash, no shares.
The shares will be acquired directly on behalf of the members of the Board
within two weeks from the release of the company's interim report 1 January-31
March 2025. If the remuneration cannot be delivered at that time due to insider
regulation or other justified reason, the company shall deliver the shares later
or pay the remuneration fully in cash. The remuneration of the employee
representatives elected as members of the Board of Directors will be paid in
cash.
12 Resolution on the number of members of the Board of Directors
The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that
the company's Board of Directors shall have eight members elected by the Annual
General Meeting.
13 Election of members of the Board of Directors and the Chairperson
The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that
the current members of the Board of Directors Bertil Carlsén, Elisabetta
Castiglioni, Tomas Franzén, Harri-Pekka Kaukonen, Gustav Moss and Petter
Söderström be re-elected, and Nina Bjornstad and Marianne Dahl be elected as new
members. Liselotte Hägertz Engstam and Katharina Mosheim have informed that they
are not available for re-election. The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes
that Tomas Franzén shall be re-elected as the Chairperson of the Board of
Directors. The term of office of the members of the Board of Directors ends at
the close of the next Annual General Meeting. All the proposed candidates have
given their consent to being elected.
Nina Bjornstad (born 1977), a Norwegian citizen, is a professional board member
and advisor at her own company, Sway Consulting AS. With over 20 years of

Administration from Aarhus University. She is independent of the company and its
significant shareholders. Currently, Dahl does not own any shares in Tietoevry.
The members of the Board of Directors proposed to be re-elected are independent
of the company and its major shareholders, excluding Petter Söderström, who is
independent of the company but not of one of its major shareholders, Solidium
Oy. The biographical details of the candidates and information on their holdings
are available on the company's website (https://www.tietoevry.com/en/investor
-relations/governance/board-of-directors/).
The Shareholders' Nomination Board has considered in their proposal the
composition of the Board of Directors as to its overall structure as well as the
individual members' versatile and mutually complementary professional expertise
and experience. The Shareholders' Nomination Board therefore proposes that the
Board of Directors is elected as a whole.
In addition to the above candidates, the company's personnel has elected two
members to the Board of Directors. Employees have elected the following persons

-elected as the company's auditor for the financial year 2025. Deloitte Oy has
notified the company that APA Marika Nevalainen will act as the auditor with
principal responsibility.

of the auditor is free from the influence of a third party and that the Audit
and Risk Committee has not been required to comply with a clause of the kind
referred to in paragraph 6 of Article 16 of the EU Audit Regulation (537/2014),
which would restrict the decision-making of the Annual General Meeting or the
company regarding the election of the auditor. The recommendation of the Audit
and Risk Committee is included in the proposal of the Board of Directors which
is available on the company's website at tietoevry.com/agm.
16 Remuneration of the sustainability reporting assurance provider
The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting, in accordance
with the recommendation of the Audit and Risk Committee of the Board of
Directors, that the sustainability reporting assurance provider to be elected at
the Annual General Meeting be reimbursed according to the sustainability
reporting assurance provider's invoice and in compliance with the purchase
principles approved by the Committee.
17 Election of the sustainability reporting assurance provider
The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting, in accordance

Directors, that Deloitte Oy be elected as the sustainability reporting assurance
provider for the financial year 2025. Deloitte Oy has notified the company that
APA, Authorized Sustainability Auditor (ASA), Marika Nevalainen would act as the
sustainability auditor with principal responsibility.
18 Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase of the

Directors be authorized to decide on the repurchase of the company's own shares
as follows:
· The number of own shares to be repurchased shall not exceed 11800 000

shares can be repurchased otherwise than in proportion to the shareholdings of
the shareholders (directed repurchase).
The authorization cancels previous unused authorizations to decide on the
repurchase of the company's own shares. The authorization is effective until the
next Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than until 29 April 2026.
19 Authorizing the Board of Directors to decide on the issuance of shares as
well as on the issuance of option rights and other special rights entitling to
shares
The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Board of
Directors be authorized to decide on the issuance of shares as well as on the
issuance of option rights and other special rights entitling to shares referred
to in chapter 10 section 1 of the Finnish Companies Act in one or more
instalments as follows:
? The number of shares to be issued based on the authorization (including
shares to be issued based on the special rights) shall not exceed 11800 000
shares, which currently corresponds to approximately 10% of all the shares in
the company. However, out of the above maximum number of shares to be issued, no
more than 1200 000 shares, currently corresponding to approximately 1% of all of
the shares in the company, may be issued to be used as part of the company's
share-based incentive programs.
? The Board of Directors decides on the terms and conditions of the
issuance of shares as well as of option rights and other special rights
entitling to shares. The authorization concerns both the issuance of new shares
as well as the transfer of treasury shares. The issuance of shares as well as of
option rights and other special rights entitling to shares may be carried out in
deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive right (directed issue).
The authorization cancels previous unused authorizations to decide on the
issuance of shares as well as on the issuance of option rights and other special
rights entitling to shares. The authorization is effective until the next Annual
General Meeting, however, no longer than until 29 April 2026.
20 Amendment of the Articles of Association
The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting would decide to
amend the company's Articles of Association to better reflect currently
applicable regulations and market practice. The material amendments proposed to
the Articles of Association are:
? Addition of a new Section 7 concerning the sustainability reporting
assurance provider.
? Amendment of Section 10 (current Section 9) concerning the Annual
General Meeting by adding decisions on the remuneration policy and the adoption
of the remuneration report, as well as decisions on the remuneration and
election of the sustainability reporting assurance provider as matters to be
considered at the Annual General Meeting; and
? Complete removal of the section regarding the voting restriction at a
General Meeting (current Section 11). The purpose of the removal is to enable
voting at a General Meeting in a manner whereby the voting rights of each
shareholder at a meeting correspond to the number of shares owned in the
company.
As a result of the amendment to the Articles of Association, the consecutive
numbering of the sections of the Articles of Association would be changed to
reflect the amendments made;
According to the proposal, the new Section 7 of the Articles of Association
would read in its entirety as follows:
"§ 7 Sustainability reporting assurance provider
One Authorized Sustainability Audit Firm, whose appointed Authorized
Sustainability Auditor with principal responsibility must be an Authorized
Sustainability Auditor (ASA) as referred to in the Finnish Auditing Act, shall
be elected as the company's sustainability reporting assurance provider. The
company's auditor with a special qualification as an Authorized Sustainability
Auditor can also be elected to this office.
The term of office of the sustainability reporting assurance provider expires at
the closing of the first Annual General Meeting following its election."
Additionally, the proposed Section 10 of the Articles of Association (current
Section 9) would read in its entirety as follows:
"10 § Annual General Meeting
The Annual General Meeting is held no later than the date determined by the
Finnish Companies Act.
At the Annual General Meeting, the following shall be
decided
1 Adoption of the annual accounts,
2 Measures called for by the profit and/or other non-restricted capital pursuant
to the adopted balance sheet,
3 Discharge from liability of the members of the Board of Directors and the
Managing Director,
4 Fees for the members of the Board of Directors, the auditor and the

7 Adoption of the remuneration report, and
elected
8 Chairperson and members of the Board of Directors

10 Sustainability reporting assurance provider.
Additionally, other matters mentioned in the notice of the meeting shall be
considered at the Annual General Meeting."

shareholder may also vote in advance in the manner described in this notice.
Proxy representatives registering or voting in advance electronically for the
Annual General Meeting must identify themselves personally through strong
electronic authentication, after which they can register on behalf of the
shareholder they represent. The same applies to voting in advance
electronically.
· Shareholders that are natural persons can authorize a proxy representative
in connection with the electronic registration or issue the authorization
through the Suomi.fi service, in which case the representative must authenticate
themselves using strong electronic identification during registration. After
this, the electronic authorization will be automatically verified. Strong
electronic identification works with bank credentials or mobile certificates.
More information is available at suomi.fi/e-authorizations.

proxy representatives representing the shareholder's shares in different
securities accounts, the shares based on which each proxy representative
represents the shareholder must be specified in connection with the
registration.
· Shareholders that are legal entities can also use the electronic suomi.fi e
-authorization service instead of a traditional proxy authorization document. In
this case, the legal entity authorizes its designated representative in the
Suomi.fi service at suomi.fi/e-authorizations using the authorization matter
"Representation at the General Meeting." In Euroclear Finland Oy's general
meeting service, the authorized representative must authenticate themselves
using strong electronic identification in connection with the registration,
after which the electronic authorization will be automatically verified. Strong
electronic identification works with bank credentials or mobile certificates.

to represent the shareholder at the Annual General Meeting. The right to
represent can also be demonstrated by using the suomi.fi authorizations service
available in the electronic registration service.
