Industrial participation

Patria operates in the field of defence procurement where industrial participation is a common requirement and prerequisite in contracts.
In its export activities, Patria may participate in direct or indirect industrial participation arrangements and activities where (and to the extent that) such are required by the specific government procuring defence equipment from Patria, and where such activities and arrangements create and add value directly (activities related to performance of the main agreement) or indirectly (activities unrelated to performance of the main agreement).
Furthermore, Patria may decide to participate in industrial participation arrangements where participation is in the business interest of Patria Group as a whole, where the value of industrial participation engagements is proportionate to the value of the main agreements or transaction, and provided that such activities are steered and monitored by executive management with clear accountability.
Participation in industrial participation arrangements and activities are carried out according to the rules and policies of concerned countries.
These industrial participation arrangements may also include externally created industrial participation activities as well as actions on behalf of other entities having industrial participation liabilities when this is possible under applicable rules and policies. Mutual abatements or swaps of industrial participations are also possible, where performed under applicable regulations and with consent of relevant authorities and agreements.
Patria's industrial participation obligations are duly reported to management, board of directors and audit committee nominated by board of directors of Patria Oyj.
