According  to the preliminary results of Oriola-KD Corporation's ("Oriola-KD" or

A  shares (the "New A Shares"), representing approximately 130.5 per cent of the
9,429,742 New  A Shares offered, and 31,485,060 new B shares (the "New B Shares"
and  jointly  with  the  New  A  Shares,  the  "Offered  Shares"),  representing
approximately  151.4 per  cent  of  the  20,798,643 New  B  Shares offered, were
subscribed  for.  The  shares  subscribed  for  represent in total approximately
144.9 per  cent  of  all  Offered  Shares.  Due  to  the  oversubscription,  the
subscription guarantee will not be utilised.

9,010,593 New  A Shares and 20,017,596 New  B Shares, representing approximately
96.0 per  cent  of  all  Offered  Shares,  were  subscribed  for on the basis of
subscription  rights.  3,292,945 New  A  Shares  and  11,467,464 New  B  Shares,
representing  approximately 48.8 per cent of all Offered Shares, were subscribed
for in the secondary subscription.

The  subscription period in the Offering  ended on 3 March 2015 at 4:30 p.m. The
Offered  Shares subscribed  for on  the basis  of subscription  rights have been
recorded  on the subscribers' book-entry account  as interim shares (the trading
code of the interim A shares is OKDAVN0115 and the trading code of the interim B
shares OKDBVN0115). Trading in the interim shares on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd
stock  exchange will  begin today,  4 March 2015. The  interim shares are freely
transferable.

The interim shares corresponding to the Offered Shares will be combined with the
Company's  respective current share classes (the trading code of the A shares is
OKDAV  and trading code of the B shares OKDBV) once the Offered Shares have been
registered  in the Finnish Trade Register. The combination will take place on or
about 9 March 2015.

The  Offered Shares offered  in the secondary  subscription will be allocated in
accordance  with the terms and  conditions of the Offering  in proportion to the
number  of subscription rights exercised for  subscription of Offered Shares per
book-entry  account.  The  Offered  Shares  offered  on  the  basis  of approved
secondary subscriptions will be recorded on the subscribers' book-entry accounts
once the Offered Shares have been entered into the Finnish Trade Register.

March  2015 after  the  Board  of  Directors  of  the  Company  has approved the
subscriptions made in the Offering.

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

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.

high net worth companies, and other persons to whom it may lawfully be

together being referred to as "relevant persons"). Any investment activity to
