19.12.2017 Page 5

Construction of an air base and aircraft factory for

possible wartime needs commenced in Halli in

1938 at the initiative of Field Marshal Mannerheim.

Based on an agreement concluded with the Air

Force, the Karhumäki brothers began to build an

aircraft factory in Kuorevesi.

In practice, the Halli urban area emerged from

nothing in Hallinkangas, a completely remote area

until that time.

Operations in the vicinity of the new air base

expanded during the Continuation War, when

Valtion lentokonetehdas (“State aircraft factory”)established its 2VL factory there.

The story of Halli, part 2.

AIRCRAFT INDUSTRY

The production of Valmet’s aircraft factorywas moved from Tampere to Halli in 1967.

Halli became the only place in Finland whereaircraft was manufactured.

The Valmet L-70 Vinka and Valmet L-90Redigo planes, among others, were designedand manufactured in Halli in the 1970s and1980s.

In addition, the Air Force’s British Hawktrainer aircraft and US F/A-18 Hornet fighteraircraft have been assembled in the area.

Patria was established on the basis of ValmetLentokoneteollisuus in the 1990s.

- Strong foundation from the 1970s

GARRISON

The Air Force Technical School was movedfrom Kauhava to Halli in 1973, because therewas already a strong infrastructure in Halli: anairfield, aviation unit and the aircraft factory.

The school was a modern technologicalinstitute that became a showcase for all ofFinland’s Defence Forces in the 1990s with theHawk and Hornet projects, among others.

In the late phases, the Technical School andthe garrison employed approximately 150people.

In accordance with the Defence Forces’ savingsplans published on 8 February 2012, it wasdecided to close down the Halli garrison at theend of 2013.

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT.

19.12.2017 Page 18

2 Operating environment with diverse opportunities.The Halli area offers a high-quality operating environment for new business

• The City of Jämsä has prepared a local plan for the NxtVn data park area and its surroundings. • The total area of the plan is 63 hectares, of which 45 hectares has been reserved for construction. • The plan project has created the land use preconditions for implementing the data centre park and

its auxiliary systems and the business ecosystem for the expanded data park.

19.12.2017 Page 19

Operating environment with diverse opportunities.New constructionThe needs of the data centre operators locating in the area will mainly require the construction of new server halls. The permitted building volume in the area is approximately 361,061 square metres. If the building rights are fully used, the area will make up a very efficiently and densely built entity.

Data park service hubThe existing building stock can be used for server facilities only to a limited extent. However, the premises will serve the core business of NxtVn strongly by offering a platform for auxiliary services of different levels.

Bit & Business Base - Education & Experiment Base - A high-level centre of excellenceA lot of flexible and affordable space in the properties can also be rented to other operators. A key aim is to create a high-level centre of excellence in connection with the data centre park, giving birth to a business ecosystem that will enrich the business ecosystem in the area.

Gross area of existing buildings approx. 31,000 m2

• School building approx. 8,000 m2

• Dormitory approx. 6,000 m2

• Canteen approx. 5,000 m2

• Barracks approx. 4,000 m2

The affordable waste heat energy released from the data park will provide significant added value to other business locating in Halli, such as manufacturing and primary production.

The construction of the NxtVn data park and increase in capacity in Halli will take place in phases based on customer demand.

Waste heat will therefore be generated increasingly from the cooling of the computer rooms as the capacity increases

The planned maximum capacity of the data park will be up to 100 MW of IT power

If necessary, all heat generated in the data park will be recovered and recycled for utilisation by other parties For example,

SAFETY AND SECURITY.

19.12.2017 Page 30

Safety & Security.The history and current state of Halli involve functions that require strong expertise and

investment in the safety and security structure.

Safety and security is prominent in the infrastructure of Halli because there are parties guided by

high-level security criteria operating in the area: Patria, NxtVn data park, Air Force, Finavia.

As a result of these parties, the area also has a strong level of preparedness and skill related to rescue

operations.

Patria was the third company in Finland to be awarded a corporate security certificate pursuant to

the new Security Clearance Act, audited and awarded by the Defence Forces. The audit process

assessed the company’s administrative safety, physical security, personnel security and data security.

In the NxtVn data park concept, both physical security and cybersecurity are key business factors.

Next steps – NXT StepsThe local plan for Halli facilitates investments – Base for Growth

The local plan for Halli, facilitating the construction of the data park, became legally valid in January 2017. There were no complaints filed during the plan process, which demonstrates extensive trust in the new business concept.

An innovation process will be launched based on the needs of the customers locating in the data park, inviting a carefully selected set of operators and influential parties whose operations will support the creation of new jobs in Halli and Jämsä in accordance with the Halli 2030 vision. The parties include:

• Start-Up and Spin-Off businesses• International growth companies • Local influential parties• Representatives of universities and research institutions (e.g.,

University of Jyväskylä, Tampere University of Technology)• Public funding institutions (e.g. Tekes)• Investors (e.g. FCVA)• Socially influential parties (e.g. SITRA)• Future researchers The ideas will be tested and refined together with the parties at the core of the business operations.

19.12.2017 Page 45

Next steps – NXT StepsHalli grows through cooperation.

The Halli master plan is a vision, and its implementation depends on the ability of international data centre operators to realise the unique strengths of Halli as a data centre location.

Data centres almost invariably attract other new businesses that utilise the affordable waste heat in their own production.

Halli is already an aviation industry hub that employs 800 people. Halli can generate research and development in new technologies in the ICT sector, building automation or aviation.
