The Annual General Meeting resolved, in accordance with the proposal of the Shareholders' Nomination Board, that the number of members of the Board of Directors remain the same and be seven (7). Mikael Aro was elected as Chair of the Board of Directors. Kari Kauniskangas, Anne Koutonen, Mikko Mursula, Veronica Lindholm, Annica Ånäs, and Gertjan van der Baan were elected as members of the Board of Directors.

- other members of the Board EUR 39,000 and
- Chairmen of the Board's Committees EUR 46,000.
