The Board of Directors of Tulikivi Corporation (“Tulikivi” or “Company”) has today, based on the authorization by the Extra General Meeting of Shareholders, decided on a directed share issue in a maximum amount of approximately EUR 7.5 million where new class A shares in the Company (the “Offer Shares”) are offered, in deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive right to subscription, to the public in Finland (the “Share Issue”). The Company offers a maximum of 22,727,273 Offer Shares which prior to the Share Issue corresponds to approximately 61.2 per cent of the Company’s shares and approximately 18.5 per cent of the votes conferred by those shares. The grounds for the derogation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive subscription right are that the capital raised by the Share Issue will be used to strengthen the balance sheet and financial position. Therefore, the Company has a weighty financial reason as referred to in chapter 9, section 4 of the Companies Act to derogate from the pre-emptive subscription right.

A number of Finnish institutional investors as well as certain other investors have undertaken to subscribe for Offer Shares in a maximum amount of approximately EUR 6.1 million. Subscription undertakings have been given by Mutual Insurance Company Pension Fennia, Mutual Pension Insurance Company Varma, Taaleritehdas Finland Value fund, Mutual Pension Insurance Company Ilmarinen, Finnish Cultural Foundation, Fennia Mutual Insurance Company, the non-UCITS fund Phoebus as well as a number of other investors, including the following members of the Company’s Board of Directors: Harri Suutari, Olli Pohjanvirta, Pasi Saarinen, Nella Ginman-Tjeder, Markku Rönkkö and Anu Vauhkonen or companies under their control, as the case may be (each separately “Issuer of Subscription Undertaking” and jointly “Issuers of Subscription Undertaking”). Part of the subscription commitments contains customary conditions.

The Offer Shares are offered for subscription to private persons and entities in Finland with a minimum subscription of 5,000 Offer Shares.

The subscription period commences on 11 October 2013 at 9:30 a.m. and expires on 17 October 2013 at 4:30 p.m. at the latest. The Company’s Board of Directors may decide to discontinue the subscription period. However, the Subscription Period may not be closed during the first three days or between 9:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. The subscription price is EUR 0.33 per Offer Share.

Subscription orders regarding the Offer Shares may be submitted at the following places of subscription:

• at the offices of the cooperative banks belonging to OP-Pohjola Group and of Helsinki OP Bank Plc. during their business hours;
• via the internet service of OP-Pohjola Group at www.op.fi/merkinta to the extent subscribers hold OP-Pohjola Group’s online user identifiers or Nordea Bank Finland Plc.’s online banking access codes;
• the subscription orders of the institutional customers of Pohjola Bank Equities are submitted to Pohjola Bank Equities; and
• the subscription orders of Issuers of Subscription Undertaking are submitted to Pohjola Corporate Finance Ltd.

In the event of excess demand the Offer Shares shall be allocated between the subscribers as follows: (1) firstly, to the Issuers of Subscription Undertaking so that each Issuer of Subscription Undertaking receives the number of Offer Shares corresponding to the issued subscription undertaking; and (2) secondly, so that the following are equally taken into account: (a) the subscriber’s portion of subscriptions for Offer Shares to be allocated, and (b) the ratio of the total number of the Company’s class A and class K shares held by the subscriber to the total number of class A and class K shares held by the subscribers of the Offer Shares to be allocated. The above-mentioned holdings of the subscribers are determined for allocation on the basis of the Company’s shareholder register maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd on 11 October 2013. Where the allocation is not possible on the basis of the above, lots shall be drawn.

The Company will publish the preliminary result of the Share Issue by a stock exchange release on approximately 18 October 2013. The Company’s Board of Directors will decide on the approval of the subscriptions and on any allocations on approximately 21 October 2013. The Company will publish the final result of the Share Issue by a stock exchange release on approximately 21 October 2013. Offer Shares will be recorded on the subscriber’s book-entry account after they have been entered in the Trade Register, on approximately 22 October 2013. Trading with the Offer Shares will commence on approximately 23 October 2013.

The Company has filed a prospectus concerning the Share Issue for approval by the Finnish Financial Supervision Authority. The prospectus will be approved on approximately 9 October 2013 and will be available as of approximately 10 October 2013 at the Company’s headquarter, address Kuhnustantie 10, 83900 Juuka, during normal office hours, at the office of NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd, address Fabianinkatu 14, 00130 Helsinki and in electronic form in the Finnish language at the Company’s website http://www.tulikivi.fi/osakeanti.
