INSIDER INVESTIGATION RELATING TO SHARE PURCHASES BY LSO OSUUSKUNTA

As HKScan Corporation announced on 17 March 2009, certain persons who have
acted on behalf of LSO Osuuskunta and belong to the management of the company
have been heard as suspects in a case concerning abuse of insider information
and relating to the purchase of the company's shares by LSO Osuuskunta in
August 2006. 

HKScan Corporation has been informed that in addition to the persons announced
earlier, also the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of the company, Tiina
Varho-Lankinen, has now been heard as a suspect. The company has also been
informed that Matti Murto, a member of the Board of Directors of HKScan, has
been summoned to be heard as a suspect in the matter. 

The hearings are based on the respective persons' positions at the time as
representatives of LSO Osuuskunta and do not relate to their roles in HKScan
Corporation. 

All persons heard in the investigation deny the suspicions as ungrounded.

The company will follow the progress of the investigation and will provide
additional information on the matter when the result of a potential
consideration of charges is known.
