LOCKOUT STARTED IN  M-REAL MILLS IN FINLAND

The lockout declared earlier by the Finnish Forest Industries
Federation started today 18 May at 6 a.m. in all the M-real mills in
Finland. The lockout is to end on 1 June at 6 a.m., unless the
parties have not concluded a collective labour agreement before that.

The Finnish Forest Industries Federation has on 17 May declared a new
lockout which will immediately follow the previous one and end on 15
June at 6 a.m unless agreement is reached before that.

M-real estimates that the lockout would weaken its operating result
by 5-10 million euros per week.
