Metso Corporation announces positive results of consent solicitation from holders of certain notes issued under its EMTN Programme

Metso Corporation announces the positive results of its consent solicitation
process pursuant to which it solicited consents and waivers from the holders of
the outstanding notes of certain series of notes issued pursuant to its EMTN
Programme to pass an extraordinary resolution at a separate meeting of
noteholders of each such series to sanction (a) the waiver and authorisation of
any breach or any alleged breach of certain of the terms and conditions of the
notes and (b) waivers in respect of certain statutory rights that such
noteholders may have under Finnish law, in each case, as may be caused by, or
arise in respect of, the proposed demerger of Metso's Pulp, Paper and Power
businesses into an independent company.


Metso  Corporation is  pleased to  confirm that  an extraordinary resolution was
duly  passed at each  meeting of noteholders  in respect of  each such series of
notes.   Accordingly,   the  waivers  and  authorizations  referred  to  in  the
extraordinary resolutions will take effect on and from today.

The  details of the results of the consent solicitation are more fully described
in the attached Luxembourg Stock Exchange "Results Notice".
