The company’s Insider Rules and the insider laws and regulations, including the Finnish Securities Act, the Guidelines for Insiders issued by Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd and the Market Abuse Regulation (EU), constitute the primary legal framework for the insider issues relevant to the Group and its employees.

Furthermore, the Regulation on EU Energy Market Integrity and Transparency sets forth similar requirements as the Market Abuse Regulation on dealing with inside information relating to wholesale energy products. As the company is a participant in the wholesale energy market, the company’s Insider Rules apply to such energy-related inside information, as applicable.

The persons discharging managerial responsibilities in Outokumpu, in the meaning of the Market Abuse Regulation, include members of the company’s Board of Directors, the CEO, and other members of the Outokumpu Leadership Team (“the Management”). The Management together with the persons or companies closely associated with a member of the Management constitutes the so called “Notifying Persons”. Outokumpu maintains a non-public list of the Notifying Persons.

Outokumpu applies a restricted period of thirty (30) calendar days before the announcement, as well the day of the announcement, of
an interim financial report, interim financial statement and a year-end report (the “Closed Window”). During this period, the Management,
the persons subject to trading restrictions and any legally incompetent persons under their custody shall not conduct any transactions,
on his/her own account or for the account of a third party, directly or indirectly, relating to the company’s shares or debt instruments, or
derivatives or other financial instruments linked thereto. Separate, non-public, project-specific insider registers are maintained for insider
projects. Persons defined as project-specific insiders are those who, in the course of their duties in connection with a project, receive inside information concerning the Group which, if or when realized, is likely to have a significant effect on the value of the company’s publicly traded securities.

The company has the obligation to inform the public as soon as possible of inside information that directly concerns the company, unless the company has decided that the publication of the inside information shall be delayed, in accordance with the applicable insider regulations. The publication of inside information shall be made in accordance with the company’s Disclosure Policy.

Outokumpu’s Head of Legal and Compliance function is responsible for the coordination and supervision of insider topics.
