Tieto Corporation STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE 16 February 2018, 13.00 EET

The Shareholders' Nomination Board of Tieto Corporation proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the meeting would decide as follows:

1 Remuneration of the Board of Directors

The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that the remuneration of the Board of Directors will be annual fees and remain unchanged as follows: EUR 91 000 to the Chairman, EUR 55 000 to the Deputy Chairman and EUR 36 000 to the ordinary members of the Board of Directors. The same fee as to the Board Deputy Chairman will be paid to the Chairman of a Board committee unless the same individual is also the Chairman or Deputy Chairman of the Board. In addition to these fees it is proposed that the member of the Board of the Directors be paid the same remuneration of EUR 800 for each Board meeting as currently and for each permanent or temporary committee meeting. It is the company's practice not to pay fees to Board members who are also employees of the Tieto Group.

The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that 40% of the fixed annual remuneration be paid in Tieto Corporation's shares purchased from the market. The shares will be purchased within two weeks from the release of the interim report 1 January-31 March 2018. According to the proposal, the Annual General Meeting will resolve to acquire the shares directly on behalf of the members of the Board which is an approved manner to acquire the company's shares in accordance with the applicable insider rules. The Shareholders' Nomination Board is of the opinion that increasing long-term shareholding of the Board members will benefit all the shareholders.

2 Number of the members of the Board of Directors

The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Board of Directors shall have seven members.

Sari Pajari and Jonas Wiström have informed that they are not available for re-election. The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that Kurt Jofs shall be re-elected as the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

The term of office of the Board members ends at the close of the next Annual General Meeting. All the proposed candidates have given their consent to being elected.
