Shareholders' Nomination Board's proposal for the composition of Neste Oil's
Board of Directors

The Shareholders' Nomination Board, established by Neste Oil Corporation's
Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 4 April 2013, will propose to the AGM to be held
on 3 April 2014 that the company's Board of Directors should comprise the
following members:

Mr. Jorma Eloranta should be re-elected as Chair and Ms. Maija-Liisa Friman as
Vice Chair of the Board. In addition, Board members Mr. Per-Arne Blomquist, Ms.
Laura Raitio, Mr. Willem Schoeber, and Ms. Kirsi Sormunen should be re-elected
for a further term of office. The Shareholders' Nomination Board's candidate to
serve as a new Board member is Jean-Baptiste Renard. He holds an M.Sc. (Eng)
from École Polytechnique and an engineering diploma in petroleum economics from
the French Petroleum Institute (IFP).

All those concerned have given their consent to serving on the Board and are
considered independent of the company and its major shareholders.

Michiel Boersma, who will leave the Board of Directors, has served for the
agreed maximum time allowed for a member.

"On behalf of the Shareholders' Nomination Board, I would like to thank Michiel
Boersma, who will step down at the AGM, for the very valuable contribution that
he has made to the work of Neste Oil's Board of Directors," says Eero
Heliövaara, Chair of the Nomination Board and Director General of the Prime
Minister's Office's Ownership Steering Department.

The Shareholders' Nomination Board will also propose that the remuneration paid
to the Board of Directors for its following term of office should remain
unchanged and be as follows:

Chair, EUR 66,000/year
Vice Chair, EUR 49,200/year
Member, EUR 35,400/year
Meeting payment, EUR 600/meeting

The meeting payment also applies to Board committee meetings. The payment will
be double for members living outside Finland. In addition, Board members'
traveling costs will be reimbursed in accordance with the company's travel
policy.

The Shareholders' Nomination Board was appointed on 2 September 2013.  In
accordance with a decision made by the AGM, the Nomination Board consisted of
representatives of the company's three largest shareholders as of the first
weekday in September: Eero Heliövaara, Director General of the Prime Minister's
Office's Ownership Steering Department; Timo Ritakallio, Deputy CEO of Ilmarinen
Mutual Pension Insurance Company; and Mikko Koivusalo, Vice President, Capital
Markets, Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company. The Chair of Neste Oil's Board
of Directors, Jorma Eloranta, served as the fourth member of the Nomination
Board. The Nomination Board was assisted by Executive Search Spencer Stuart.

The Nomination Board was unanimous in all its proposals. As Chair of the Board
of Directors, Jorma Eloranta did not take part in discussions preceding the
Nomination Board's proposal related to the Chair of the Board and the
remuneration payable to Board members.
