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

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that a maximum dividend of EUR 0.34 per share, or a total of EUR 19,904,455.78, be distributed as dividend based in the adopted balance sheet for the financial year ended 31 December 2025. The Board of Directors proposes that the dividend be paid in two instalments.

The Board proposes that the first instalment of the dividend, EUR 0.17 per share, be paid to shareholders who are registered in the company’s shareholder register maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd, on the record date of the first dividend instalment, 30 April 2026. The Board proposes that the first dividend payment date be 13 May 2026.

In addition, the Board of Directors proposes that the 2026 Annual General Meeting authorise the Board of Directors to later decide, at its discretion, on the distribution of a maximum dividend of EUR 0.17 per share in one instalment in fall 2026. This authorisation would be valid until 31 December 2026. The company will announce any decision taken by the Board of Directors on the distribution of a dividend and, in connection with this, confirm the record date and payment date of the dividend. The dividend based on the authorisation will be paid to shareholders registered in the company’s shareholder register maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd on the dividend record date.

No substantial changes in the company’s financial position have occurred after the end of the financial year. The company’s liquidity is good, and in the view of the Board of Directors, the proposed dividend payout does not jeopardise the company’s solvency.

BDO has notified that the company’s key Sustainability Auditor would be Authorised Sustainability Auditor APA Vesa Vuorinen, should BDO be elected as the Sustainability Auditor. BDO Oy is a sustainability audit firm as defined by law and independent of the company and the auditor. The term of office of the Sustainability Auditor ends at the close of the Annual General Meeting following the election of the Sustainability Auditor.

18. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on repurchase and/or acceptance as pledge of the company’s own shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorise the Board of Directors to decide on the repurchase and/or acceptance as pledge a maximum of 2,940,000 of the company’s own shares using the company’s unrestricted equity, corresponding to around 5 per cent of the company’s total number of shares at the time of publishing the Notice of the Annual General Meeting. The repurchase can take place in one or more tranches.

The own shares can also be accepted as a pledge otherwise than in proportion to the shareholders’ current shareholdings in the company (directed acceptance as pledge). The shares shall be repurchased otherwise than in proportion to the shareholders’ current shareholdings in the company in public trading arranged by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd at the trading price quoted at the time of repurchase (directed repurchase). The shares shall be repurchased and paid for in accordance with the rules of Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd.

The company may repurchase the shares to execute its incentive scheme, corporate acquisitions or other business arrangements, or investments related to the company’s operations, to improve its capital structure, or to be otherwise further transferred, retained by the company or cancelled.

It is proposed that the authorisation include the right for the Board of Directors to decide on all other matters related to the repurchase and/or the acceptance as pledge of shares. The authorisation revokes the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 7 May 2025 regarding the repurchase and/or acceptance as pledge of the company’s own shares. It is proposed that the authorisation be effective until the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2027, but no longer than until 30 June 2027.

The decision concerning the authorisation requires a qualified majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.

19. Authorising the Board of Directors to decide on the issue of shares as well as the issue of options and other special rights entitling to shares

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorise the Board of Directors to decide on assigning a maximum of 2,940,000 new shares or shares held by the company in one or more tranches through a share issue and/or by issuing options or other special rights entitling to shares as referred to in chapter 10, section 1, of the Limited Liability Companies Act. 2,940,000 shares currently represent approximately 5 per cent of Tokmanni Group Corporation’s total number of registered shares.

It is proposed that the authorisation be used for the implementation of the company’s incentive scheme or for the execution of any acquisitions or other arrangements or investments relating to the company’s business or for other purposes subject to a decision by the Board of Directors. However, a maximum of 300,000 shares may be used to implement the incentive scheme. This amount corresponds to approximately 0.5 per cent of all the company’s shares.

The share issue may be without consideration only if the shares are issued for the implementation of the company’s incentive scheme or to the company itself, subject to the provisions of the Limited Liability Companies Act on the maximum number of treasury shares.

It is proposed that the authorisation include the right of the Board of Directors to decide on the terms and conditions of any share issue and any issue of special rights referred to in chapter 10, section 1 of the Limited Liability Companies Act. The authorisation thus also includes the right to issue shares in a proportion other than that of the shareholders’ current shareholdings in the company under the conditions provided in law.

The authorisation revokes the authorisation granted by the Annual General Meeting on 7 May 2025 to decide on the issue of shares as well as the issue of options and other special rights entitling to shares. It is proposed that the authorisation be effective until the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2027, but no longer than until 30 June 2027.

The decision concerning the authorisation requires a qualified majority of at least two-thirds of the votes cast and the shares represented at the meeting.

20. Amendment of the Charter of the Shareholders’ Nomination Board

The Annual General Meeting 2017 approved the charter for the Shareholders’ Nomination Board, which sets out the appointment of members and the composition of the Nomination Board, as well as defining the duties and responsibilities of the Nomination Board.

The Shareholders’ Nomination Board proposes that the charter be amended so that the largest shareholders of the company shall be determined based on the company’s shareholder register as at the first business day of June on Nasdaq Helsinki, instead of the first business day of September. The Shareholders’

Nomination Board also proposes that the charter be amended so that the term of office of the members ends when new members have been appointed to the Nomination Board, rather than at the close of the next Annual General Meeting following the appointment. In addition, certain other technical updates to the charter are proposed.

The proposed amended charter is attached to this notice and is also available on Tokmanni Group Corporation’s website at https://tokmannigroup.com/en/investors/corporate-governance/general-meetings/annual-general-meeting-2026/.
