EERO LEHTI RESIGNS FROM THE BOARD OF PANOSTAJA                                  

Mr. Eero Lehti, Chairman of the Federation of Finnish Enterprises, who was      
elected to the Finnish Parliament as a result of the recent parliamentary       
elections, has today tendered his resignation from the Board of Directors of    
Panostaja Oyj. Mr. Lehti considers that his parliamentary duties will no longer 
allow him sufficient time to participate in the work of the board.              

The Board of Directors of Panostaja Oyj extends its gratitude to Mr. Lehti for  
his significant efforts for the benefit of the company.                         

Panostaja Oyj                                                                   

Board of Directors
