STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE

Outokumpu has sold its 50% holding in Nordic Brass Gusum, a brass rod mill in
Sweden, to the operative management. The consideration and cash flow impact of
this transaction is marginal, however, Outokumpu will book a loss of
approximately EUR 13 million in the Group's fourth quarter accounts. In 2010,
the turnover of Nordic Brass Gusum amounted to EUR 110 million and the business
currently employs some 150 people.
After the sale, Outokumpu will still own a brass rod plant in Drünen in the
Netherlands. In 2010, the turnover of this business totalled some EUR 60 million
and it currently employs approximately 170 people. It is Outokumpu's intention
to divest also this business.
