TALENTUM'S SALE OF MAJORITY OF TV CONTENT PRODUCTION CONFIRMED                  

On January 22, 2008 Talentum Oyj announced that it had agreed on the sale of    
Varesvuo Partners Oy, which focuses on TV content production. The purchaser is a
company established by CapMan Buyout VIII, which is managed by CapMan Plc. The  
transaction does not include Talentum's 59% stake in the parent company of the  
sub-group Oy Filmiteollisuus Fine Ab. This will be transferred to Talentum Oyj  
in the form of a subsidiary. Finalization of the transaction required approval  
from the competition authorities and some other preconditions.                  

The Finnish Competition Authority has given a favourable decision in the matter 
and the other preconditions in the transaction have also been met. The          
transaction came into force on February 20, 2008. The figures of the business   
being sold will not be included in Talentum's consolidated figures from January 
1, 2008.                                                                        

The debt-free price of the transaction is EUR 11.0 million. The net cash flow   
from the transaction is expected to about EUR 9.4 million, and the sale will    
create a profit on the sale of about EUR 1.0 million in the first quarter of    
2008.
