Exemption from the Regular Duty of Disclosure

Tekla Corporation     Stock Exchange Release     January 25, 2012 at 9 a.m.


Exemption from the Regular Duty of Disclosure

The Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority has granted upon the application of
Tekla Corporation ("Tekla") an exemption from the duty to publish financial
statements, the report of the Board of Directors, the financial statements
bulletin, and the annual summary from the year 2011. An exemption has also been
granted from the duty to publish an interim report from the period January 1 to
March 31, 2012.

In its decision, the Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority has taken into
account, among other things, the fact that in the redemption proceedings under
Chapter 18 of the Finnish Companies Act the redemption price is determined based
on the fair price of the share before the initiation of the arbitral
proceedings, and that Tekla has published an interim report covering the first
nine months of the accounting period that started on January 1, 2011, during
which time the arbitral proceedings became pending. Since the arbitral
proceedings were initiated during the said period, the Finnish Financial
Supervisory Authority has determined that the exemption concerning subsequent
reporting periods does not jeopardize the position of the investors.
