LASSILA & TIKANOJA CONCLUDED PERSONNEL NEGOTIATIONS                             

Lassila & Tikanoja has concluded statutory employer-employee negotiations which 
began on 8 December 2009. As a result of these negotiations, L&T will reduce 110
salaried employee positions in Finland. The reductions will be realised partly  
through natural attrition. The number of redundancies is expected to be 95 at   
the maximum, consisting of 80 salaried employees and 15 senior salaried         
employees.                                                                      

The reductions form part of the measures currently undertaken in order to reduce
fixed costs and to adapt business activities to meet current and future market  
situation.                                                                      

Employees affected by the reduction are being supported by L&T in various ways. 
New tasks within the company are actively being sought for persons concerned.   
Additional support is being provided in the form of relocations and job-seeking 
training.
