unchanged and be as follows:
Chair, EUR 66,000/year

In addition to the annual fee, members of the Board of Directors would receive a

EUR 1,200 for each meeting held in another country, plus compensation for
expenses pertaining to the company's travel guidelines. The meeting fee for
telephone meetings will be paid according to the fee payable for meetings held
in each member's home country.
The Shareholders' Nomination Board was appointed on 3 September 2015. In
accordance with a decision made by the AGM, the Nomination Board consisted of
representatives of the company's three largest shareholders as of the first
weekday in September: Eero Heliövaara, Director General of the Prime Minister's
Office's Ownership Steering Department (Chair); Mikko Mursula, Chief Investment
Officer of Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company; Reima Rytsölä, Chief
Investment Officer of Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company; and Jorma
Eloranta, the Chair of Neste's Board of Directors.
The Nomination Board was unanimous in all its proposals. As Chair of the Board
of Directors, Jorma Eloranta did not take part in the decision-making on the
