DISCLAIMER
The information contained herein is not for publication or distribution,
directly or indirectly, in or into Australia, Canada, the Hong Kong special
administrative region of the People's Republic of China, Japan, New Zealand,
South Africa, Singapore or the United States. The issue, exercise or sale of
securities in the offering are subject to specific legal or regulatory
restrictions in certain jurisdictions. The Company assumes no responsibility in
the event there is a violation by any person of such restrictions.
The information contained herein shall not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the securities
referred to herein in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale
would be unlawful prior to registration, exemption from registration or
qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Investors must
neither accept any offer for, nor acquire, any securities to which this document
refers, unless they do so on the basis of the information contained in the
applicable prospectus published by the Company.
These written materials do not constitute an offer for sale of securities in the
United States, nor may the securities be offered or sold in the United States
absent registration or an exemption from registration under the U.S. Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder. There is no
intention to register any portion of the offering in the United States or to
conduct a public offering of securities in the United States.
The Company has not authorised any offer to the public of securities in any
member state of the European Economic Area other than Finland. With respect to
each member state of the European Economic Area other than Finland which has
implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a "Relevant Member State"), no
action has been undertaken or will be undertaken to make an offer to the public
of securities requiring publication of a prospectus in any Relevant Member
State. As a result, the securities may only be offered in Relevant Member States
(a) to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the
Prospectus Directive; or (b) in any other circumstances falling within Article
3(2) of the Prospectus Directive. For the purposes of this paragraph, the
expression "an offer of securities to the public" means the communication in any
form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and
the securities to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to exercise,
purchase or subscribe the securities, as the same may be varied by any measure
implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State, and the
expression "Prospectus Directive" means Directive 2003/71/EC (and amendments
thereto, including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in
the Relevant Member State), and includes any relevant implementing measure in
the Relevant Member State and the expression "2010 PD Amending Directive" means
Directive 2010/73/EU.
The information contained herein shall not constitute a public offering of
shares in the United Kingdom. This document is only being distributed to and is
only directed at (i) persons who are outside the United Kingdom or (ii) to
investment professionals falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services
and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (the "Order") or (iii)
high net worth companies, and other persons to whom it may lawfully be
communicated, falling within Article 49(2) of the Order (all such persons
together being referred to as "relevant persons"). Any investment activity to
which this document relates will be only available to, and will be engaged in
only with, relevant persons. Any person who is not a relevant person should not
act or rely on this announcement or any of its contents.
