5 p.m. EET


In Wärtsilä Corporation's notice to convene the annual general meeting published
on 28 January 2011, the record date of the free share issue given under point
15, 25.3.2011, should be 8.3.2011.

The text shall read:
15. Free share issue ("share split")
It is proposed that the company would give a free share issue, applying the pre-
emptive right of the shareholders, so that for each old share one new share
would be issued. Thereby a total of 98,620,565 new shares would be issued. The
free share issue would be executed in the book-entry system and would not
require any actions by the shareholders. The new shares would generate
shareholder rights as of 8 March 2011 when they would have been registered in
the trade register. The new shares would not give dividend rights for the
dividend for 2010 decided upon in the annual general meeting.
