Raisio plc Stock exchange release 1 October 2007                                

RAISIO'S CODETERMINATION TALKS CONCLUDED                                        

Raisio's codetermination talks initiated in August have been completed. The     
talks involved the Food and Ingredients Divisions, as well as group service     
functions. The talks will lead to the termination of 18 white-collar jobs and   
the reduction of 9 jobs through natural redundancy.                             

The completed talks are a part of Raisio's process to enhance and clarify its   
business operations in order to improve profitability. The personnel reductions 
are estimated to generate annual savings of some EUR 2 million. Owing to the    
reductions, Raisio will include a cost provision of approximately EUR 1.5       
million in the Q3 results for this year.                                        

The codetermination talks at the Nokia mill, which aim to adjust production to  
the current market situation, are ongoing.
