ETTEPLAN OYJ, COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT (DISCLAIMER), MAY 9, 2016 AT 09.15 A.M.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF ETTEPLAN OYJ DECIDED ON A RIGHTS OFFERING

The Board of Directors of Etteplan Oyj (”Etteplan” or the ”Company”) has today, on 9 May 2016, based on the authorization granted by the Annual General Meeting on 5 April 2016, resolved on a rights offering (the “Offering”) of approximately EUR 14 million.

Etteplan is offering in the Offering at maximum 4 105 933 new shares (”Offer Shares”) to the Company’s shareholders for subscription in proportion to their current shareholding in the Company. The Offer Shares to be issued in the Offering represent a maximum of approximately 20.0 % of the total number of the outstanding shares and the total voting rights in the Company prior to the Offering and approximately 16.7 % of the total outstanding shares and the total voting rights after the Offering, assuming that the Offering is subscribed in full.

The subscription price for the Offer Shares is EUR 3.50 per Offer Share. The subscription period will commence on 16 May 2016 at 9.30 am and end on 31 May 2016 at 4.30 pm (Finnish time).

Assuming that all of the Offer Shares are subscribed for in the Offering, the Company will raise net proceeds of approximately 14 million euros from the Offering. Etteplan intends to use the net proceeds from the Offering to a repayment of the interim financing raised for the acquisition of the share capital of Espotel Oy (“Espotel”) and Soikea Solutions Oy (“Soikea”) and to strengthen the Company’s capital structure.

A shareholder who is registered in the Company’s shareholder register maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd on the record date of 11 May 2016 of the Offering (“Record Date”), in respect of nominee-registered existing shares, a shareholder on whose behalf the shares have been registered in the shareholders’ register on the Record Date, will automatically receive one (1) freely transferable subscription right (the “Subscription Right”) as a book-entry for each existing share owned on the Record Date.

A shareholder, or a person or an entity to whom such Subscription Rights have been transferred, is entitled to subscribe for one (1) Offer Share for every five (5) Subscription Rights. No fractions of Offer Shares will be allotted, i.e. exactly five (5) Subscription Rights are needed to subscribe for every Offer Share.

The holders of Subscription Rights may sell their Subscription Rights any time before the trading with the Subscription Rights ends. The Subscription Rights are subject to trading on the Helsinki Stock Exchange between 16 May 2016 at 10.00 a.m. Finnish time and 25 May 2016 at 6.25 p.m. Finnish time. Subscription Rights may be sold or purchased by giving a sell or purchase assignment to one’s own book-entry account operator or to any securities broker. The Offer Shares subscribed for in the Offering do not entitle to the dividend for the financial year 2015 decided by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on 5 April 2016.

The largest shareholder of the Company, Ingman Group Oy Ab, which owns approximately 66,05 % of the total number of the existing shares and the total voting rights, has irrevocably undertaken to subscribe for Offer shares to be issued in the Offering in proportion to its current holdings in the Company. According to its subscription undertaking, Ingman Group Oy Ab will in the aggregate subscribe for 2 730 000 new shares in the Offering, which represent in the aggregate approximately 66.05 % of the maximum number of new shares to be issued in the Offering and to pay the subscription price by setting off approximately EUR 9,5 million of its receivables corresponding to approximately EUR 10 million against the subscription price with the Company’s consent. In accordance with its commitment, Ingman Group Oy Ab has undertaken to pay the remaining subscription price in cash, if the total subscription price of the shares to be issued in the Offering to Ingman Group Oy Ab exceeds the receivables.

In addition, Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company, which owns approximately 3,97 % of the existing shares and Taaleri Micro Markka Equity Fund, which owns approximately 1,45 % of the existing shares have irrevocably undertaken to subscribe for new shares to be issued in the Offering in proportion to their current holdings in the Company.

The ex-rights date for the Offering is 10 May 2016 and therefore Etteplan’s shares carrying Subscription Rights are still subject to trading today. Etteplan has submitted a Finnish language prospectus for the approval of the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority. This prospectus will be published on or about 10 May 2016.

Etteplan expects to publish a stock exchange release regarding the preliminary results of the Offering on or about 1 June 2016 and one regarding the final results on or about 8 June 2016. Trading of interim shares corresponding to the Offer Shares will commence on or about 1 June 2016. Trading in the Offer Shares will commence on or about 10 June 2016.

The terms and conditions of the Offering are set out in the appendix to this release.

Evli Bank Plc acts as the Lead Manager of the Offering. Castrén & Snellman Attorneys Ltd acts as the legal adviser to Etteplan in respect of Finnish law.

Trading of the Subscription Rights

Approval of the subscriptions

The Board of Directors of the Company will approve all subscriptions pursuant to the Primary Subscription Right made in accordance with these terms and conditions of the Offering and applicable laws and regulations.

If all Offer Shares to be issued in the Offering have not been subscribed for by virtue of the Primary Subscription Right, the Board of Directors of the Company will resolve to allocate such unsubscribed Offer Shares among the Subscribers having made a Secondary Subscription. In case of over-subscription by virtue of Secondary Subscription, the allocation among Subscribers will be determined per book-entry account in proportion to the number of Subscription Rights exercised by Subscribers in accordance with the Primary Subscription Right and, where this is not possible, by drawing of lots. If several subscription assignments are given concerning a certain book-entry account, these subscription assignments are combined as one subscription assignment concerning a certain book-entry account. Should the Subscriber not receive all Offer Shares subscribed for by virtue of the Secondary Subscription, the subscription price for the Offer Shares not received by the Subscriber will be repaid to the Subscriber in connection with the subscription no later than on or about 10 June 2016. No interest will be paid for the repayable funds.

If all Offer Shares to be issued in the Offering have not been subscribed after the Secondary Subscription, the Board of Directors of the Company may allocate such unsubscribed Offer Shares among the Subscribers having made a Secondary Subscription as decided by the Board of Directors.

The Company’s Board of Directors will decide on the approval of the subscriptions on or about 8 June 2016. The Company will publish the final result of the Offering in a stock exchange release on or about 8 June 2016.

Registration of the Offer Shares to the book-entry accounts

Each shareholder and other investor participating in the Offering and submitting a subscription assignment shall have a book-entry account with a Finnish account operator or with an account operator operating in Finland. The book-entry account number shall be included in the subscription assignment. The identity number, book-entry account number and other personal data relevant for the subscription assignment may be passed also to other persons participating in the execution of the assignment or tasks relating to the Offering.

The Offer Shares subscribed for in the Offering by virtue of the Primary Subscription Right will be recorded on the Subscriber’s book-entry account after the registration of the subscription as interim shares (ISIN Code FI4000206800) corresponding to the Offer Shares. The interim shares will be admitted to trading on or about 1 June 2016. The interim shares are combined with the Existing shares of the Company (ISIN Code FI0009008650) on or about 9 June 2016. The Offer Shares subscribed for and approved by virtue of the Secondary Subscription will be recorded on the Subscribers’ book-entry accounts after the registration of Offer Shares in the Trade Register, on or about 9 June 2016.

Shareholder rights

The Offer Shares will entitle their holders to full dividend and other distribution of funds declared by the Company, if any, and to other shareholder rights in the Company when the Offer Shares have been registered in the Trade Register and in the Company’s shareholder register, on or about 9 June 2016. For the financial year ended 31 December 2015, the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on 5 April 2016 decided on distribution of dividend of EUR 0.15 per share. The record date for the 2015 dividend distribution was 7 April 2016 and the dividend was paid on 14 April 2016. Thus, the Offer Shares subscribed for in the Offering do not entitle to the dividend for the financial year 2015 decided by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on 5 April 2016.

Fees and expenses

No transfer tax is payable for the subscription of the Offer Shares. No fees or expenses will be charged for the subscription of Offer Shares in the Offering. Custodians, account operators or brokers may charge normal commissions for trading in the Subscription Rights in accordance with their own price list. Each custodian and account operator will charge fees in accordance with its own price list for maintaining the book-entry account and for any other entries on the account.

Documents mentioned in Chapter 5, Section 21 of the Finnish Companies Act are available for review as of the start of the Subscription Period on the Company’s website at www.etteplan.com.

Applicable law and dispute resolution

In case of any discrepancies between the original Finnish language version and the English language translation of these terms and conditions, the Finnish language version shall prevail.

Other issues

Other issues and practical matters relating to the Offering will be resolved by the Board of Directors of the Company.
