8. Resolution on the use of the profit shown on the balance sheet and the payment of dividend

The Board of Directors has proposed to the Annual General Meeting originally scheduled to be held on 18 March 2020 that a dividend of EUR 0.20 per share be paid based on the balance sheet adopted for the financial period ended on 31 December 2019. The Board of Directors has reconsidered its dividend proposal and due to the rapid deterioration of the circumstances resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, the Board of Directors has concluded that the company should refrain from paying dividend. Therefore, the Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend be paid based on the balance sheet adopted for the financial year ended on 31 December 2019.

The shareholders have the right to demand minority dividend pursuant to Chapter 13 Section 7 of the Finnish Limited Liability Companies Act. The minority dividend must be distributed, if a demand to this effect is made by shareholders who have at least one tenth of all shares. The amount of minority dividend is 11,070,673.07 euros, which corresponds half of the profit of the financial year. A shareholder demanding minority dividend may vote for the minority dividend in advance voting, and no separate demand or counterproposal is required.

9. Resolution on the discharge of the members of the Board of Directors and the CEO from liability for the financial year 1 January 2019 - 31 December 2019

10. Handling of the remuneration policy for governing bodies

As participation in the Annual General Meeting is possible only in advance, the company's remuneration policy published by a stock exchange release on 26 February 2020, which is available on the company's website investors.finnair.com/en, is deemed to have been presented to the Annual General Meeting. The Annual General Meeting's resolution on the remuneration policy is advisory.

11. Resolution on the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors

• Chairperson EUR 63,000;
• Vice Chairperson EUR 32,700;
• Chairpersons of the Audit Committee and People and Remuneration Committee EUR 32,700, where these individuals are neither the Chairperson nor the Vice Chairperson of the Board of Directors; and
• Other members of the Board of Directors EUR 30,300 per year.

The State of Finland proposes also that each member's fee for a meeting of the Board of Directors or its Committee would be 600 euros when the meeting takes place in the member's country of residence and 2,400 euros for other meetings. For telephone meetings, the fee would be 600 euros. The members would be entitled to reimbursement of reasonable travel and representation expenses in accordance with the company's general expenses policy, and the members and their spouses would be entitled to discounted travel on the company's flights in accordance with the company's discount ticket policy regarding the Board of Directors.

12. Resolution on the number of members of the Board of Directors

The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that the number of members of the Board of Directors would be confirmed as nine (9).

13. Election of the Chairperson and other members of the Board of Directors

The current members of Finnair's Board of Directors are Tiina Alahuhta-Kasko, Colm Barrington, Montie Brewer, Mengmeng Du, Jukka Erlund, Jouko Karvinen, Henrik Kjellberg and Jaana Tuominen. The Shareholders' Nomination Board proposes that all the current members of the Board of Directors be re-elected and that Maija Strandberg, Senior Financial Counsellor at the Government Ownership Steering Department be elected as a new member of the Board of Directors. Prior to her current position, she has acted as the CFO and member of the executive board of Uponor corporation.

Maija Strandberg is proposed to be elected as a new member to further strengthen the Board of Directors in the Covid-19 situation and in the subsequent rebuilding stage. She has strong knowledge of listed companies' financial matters and broad understanding of their importance to society.

The Shareholders' Nomination Board further proposes that Jouko Karvinen be re-elected as the Chairman of the Board. He has been a member of the Board since 2016 and the Chairman since 2017.

All candidates have given their consent to the position, and all, except Jukka Erlund and Maija Strandberg, are independent of the company and its significant owners. Jukka Erlund is not deemed to be independent of the company, because Piia Karhu, Finnair's Senior Vice President, Customer Experience, is a member of the Board of Directors of Kesko Plc and Jukka Erlund is the Executive Vice President, CFO of Kesko Plc. Maija Strandberg is not deemed to be independent of the company's significant owners as she is a civil servant of the government of Finland.

The biographical details of Board members proposed for election can be found at Finnair's company website: investors.finnair.com/en.

14. Resolution on the remuneration of the auditor

In accordance with the Audit Committee's recommendation, the Board of Directors proposes that the auditors' fees be paid according to the auditors' reasonable invoice.

15. Election of the auditor

In accordance with the Audit Committee's recommendation, the Board of Directors proposes that KPMG Oy Ab, a firm of authorised public accountants, be elected as the auditor of the company for the term of office ending at the end of the next Annual General Meeting. KPMG Oy Ab has announced that Kirsi Jantunen, APA, would be acting as the principal auditor.

16. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase and/or on the acceptance as pledge of Finnair's own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting would authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase and/or on the acceptance as pledge of the company's own shares as follows.

The number of own shares to be repurchased and/or accepted as pledge shall not exceed 5,000,000 shares, which corresponds to approximately 3.9 per cent of all the shares in the company. Only the unrestricted equity of the company can be used to repurchase own shares on the basis of the authorisation.

Own shares can be repurchased at a price formed in public trading on the date of the repurchase or otherwise at a price formed on the market.

The Board of Directors decides how own shares will be repurchased and/or accepted as pledge. Own shares can be repurchased using, inter alia, derivatives. Own shares can be repurchased otherwise than in proportion to the shareholdings of the shareholders (directed repurchase).

Own shares may be repurchased and/or accepted as pledge in order to, inter alia, develop the capital structure of Finnair, to finance or carry out acquisitions, investments or other business transactions, or in order to use the shares as part of Finnair's incentive and remuneration schemes.

The authorisation would be effective for a period of 18 months from the resolution of the General Meeting and it would cancel the authorisation given by the General Meeting on 20 March 2019 to decide on the repurchase and/or acceptance as pledge of own shares.

17. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the disposal of Finnair's own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting would authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the disposal of own shares held by the company as follows.

The number of shares to be disposed based on the authorisation shall not exceed 5,000,000 shares, which corresponds to approximately 3.9 per cent of all the shares in the company. The Board of Directors decides on all the conditions of the disposals, including to whom, at what price and in which manner the company's shares are disposed. The disposals may also be made in deviation from the shareholders' pre-emptive rights, such as using the shares to develop the company's capital structure, to finance or carry out acquisitions, investments or other business transactions, or in order to use the shares as part of Finnair's incentive and remuneration schemes.

The authorisation would be effective for a period of 18 months from the resolution of the General Meeting and it would cancel the authorisation given by the General Meeting on 20 March 2019 to decide on the disposal of the company's own shares.

18. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on a Rights Offering

The company plans to conduct a rights offering of approximately 500 million euros. The subscription period for the offering is expected to commence during the second quarter of 2020.

The Board of Directors of the company therefore proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorises the Board of Directors to resolve on the issuance of a maximum of 6,500,000,000 new shares to carry out the above-mentioned rights offering. The shares are offered to the company's shareholders for subscription in proportion to their shareholding on the record date of the share issue (rights offering). The authorisation includes the right for the Board of Directors to resolve upon the issuance of shares that remain unsubscribed for pursuant to the primary subscription right. The authorisation can only be used to execute one share issue. The Board of Directors is authorised to determine all other terms and conditions of the issuance of shares.

The company plans to use the funds raised in the rights offering to strengthen the company's balance sheet position and liquidity in the exceptional situation caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

The authorisation is valid until the close of the next Annual General Meeting, however, no longer than until 30 June 2021. It does not revoke the company's share issue authorisations resolved earlier upon by the Annual General Meeting.

19. Amendment of the Articles of Association

The Board of Directors proposes that the Articles of Association be amended in order to expand the company's field of business. The proposed changes are intended to support the company's sustainability strategy. The proposed amendments would not deviate from the purpose of the company under Chapter 1, Section 5 of the Companies Act.

The Board of Directors thereby proposes that Article 2 of the Articles of Association be amended as follows:

"The company's field of business is to operate an airline by transporting passengers, cargo, and mail and to buy, sell, import, export, transport, store, lease and repair aircraft and their parts and supplies and to buy, sell, import, export, transport and store fuels and lubricants, and to provide hotel, forwarding, travel agency and other business operations relating to travelling and airline operations, as well as finance and insurance brokerage services and business operations related to the above. The company may also engage in, or support, activities that are aimed at ensuring the acceptability, and thereby the long-term profitability, of its business by increasing the positive effects and reducing the negative effects of its business on the environment and society.  The company may conduct its business through subsidiaries, associated companies and joint ventures."

20. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on donations for public-benefit purposes.

The Board of Directors proposes that the Board of Directors be authorised to decide on donations up to an aggregate maximum of EUR 250,000 for charitable or corresponding purposes and that the Board be authorised to determine the recipients, purposes and other terms and conditions of the donations. The donations can be made in one or multiple instalments. The authorisation would be effective until the next Annual General Meeting.

21. Closing of the Meeting
