1. BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES

1.1 Background to the Tender Offer

The Offeror is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Nokia. The Offeror's main business is part of Nokia's networks

business area, in which the company offers a wide selection of various products ranging from hardware components for

network operators to software solutions and, among others, services that support and optimize network operations and

participates in the research and development of these products.

Nokia is one of the global leaders in developing technologies for a connected world, offering communications services

providers, authorities, major corporations and consumers the most comprehensive selection of products, services and

licensing opportunities. Nokia is a global company with continuing operations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-

Pacific, Greater China, North America and Latin America. Furthermore, Nokia has research and development facilities

in Europe, North America and Asia.

Comptel is a long term partner of Nokia. It is a public limited company incorporated under the laws of Finland, and its

shares are listed on the official list of Nasdaq Helsinki with the trading code CTL1V. Comptel was established in 1986

and it has approximately 837 employees in 32 countries. Comptel has completed over 1 400 customer projects in more

than 90 countries. It processes 20 percent of world´s mobile usage data every day, orchestrates communications and

digital services for more than two billion end-users daily and its largest customer has around 300 million subscribers. In

2016, Comptel’s net sales were EUR 100.0 million with an 11.0 percent operating margin. The company’s major sites

are located in Finland, Bulgaria, Malaysia, India, the United Kingdom and Norway.

Nokia and Comptel have on the Signing Date entered into a Transaction Agreement under which Nokia is committed to

make through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Nokia Solutions and Networks Oy a public tender offer for all the

Shares and Option Rights of Comptel that are not held by Comptel or any of its subsidiaries. The principal terms and

conditions of the Transaction Agreement have been described in the section “Summary of the Transaction Agreement”

below.

After reviewing the Tender Offer and its terms and conditions, as well other available information, the Board of

Directors of Comptel has unanimously decided to recommend that the shareholders and holders of Option Rights accept

the Tender Offer (see section 1.6 and Annex A below). To support its statement, the Board of Directors of Comptel has

received a fairness opinion dated 8 February 2017 from Comptel’s financial advisor Sisu Partners Oy. According to the

opinion, the consideration to be received by the holders of the Shares and the Option Rights pursuant to the Tender

Offer is believed to be fair from a financial point of view to such holders as of the date of opinion.

Major shareholders of Comptel, Mandatum Life Insurance Company, Elisa Corporation, Kaleva Mutual Insurance

Company, Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company and Ilmarinen Mutual Pension Insurance Company (the “Major

Shareholders”), and the President and CEO of Comptel personally and through an entity in his control, the Chairman

of the Board of Directors of Comptel and the members of the Board of Directors of Comptel have subject to certain

customary conditions irrevocably undertaken to accept the Tender Offer (see section 1.7 below). Such shareholders

jointly represent approximately 48.3 percent of all the Shares and votes in Comptel.

1.2 Effect of the Tender Offer on Comptel’s Operations and Assets and Future Position of Management

and Employees

The Tender Offer is not expected to have a material effect on the operations, business locations or the number of jobs at

Comptel.

It is the intention of Nokia and the Offeror that Comptel will continue to operate as a separate unit, but its business

might be eventually harmonized with and/or integrated into the standalone software business operated by Applications

and Analytics business group of Nokia group based upon an integration plan to be developed by the management of

Nokia.

Certain employees and members of senior management of Comptel will play an important role in Nokia's organization

following the completion of the Tender Offer. In order to encourage these key employees of Comptel to remain in the

Company, the Offeror intends to offer them certain retention arrangements following the completion of the Tender

Offer. However, the Offeror intends to change the composition of the Board of Directors of Comptel after the

completion of the Tender Offer.

The Offeror has not entered into any agreements providing for any compensation or other remuneration granted to the

management or the members of the Board of Directors of Comptel payable in return for the execution of the

Transaction Agreement and/or for the completion of the Tender Offer.

1.3 Offeror’s and Nokia's Strategic Plans

The planned acquisition is part of Nokia's strategy to build a standalone software business at scale by expanding and

strengthening its software portfolio and go-to-market capabilities with additional sales capacity and a strategic partner

network. Comptel would bolster Nokia's software portfolio by adding critical solutions for catalogue-driven service

orchestration and fulfillment, intelligent data processing, customer engagement, and agile service monetization. The

combination of Nokia's Service Assurance portfolio and Comptel's Service Orchestration portfolio would enable a

dynamic closed loop between service assurance and fulfillment that simplifies management of complex heterogeneous

networks. When combined with Nokia's Cloudband(TM) and Nuage(TM) portfolios, Nokia would be able to provide

customers with complete, end-to-end orchestration of complex Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software

Defined Networking (SDN) deployments.

In November 2016, Nokia announced its long-term strategy, Rebalancing for Growth. As part of the strategy, Nokia is

strengthening its software capabilities in key areas: portfolio, services and go-to-market. The planned acquisition of

Comptel would bolster go-to-market efforts with a software-dedicated sales force and strong partner network. It would

also support Nokia's desire to build a portfolio that allows customers to automate as much of their network and business

operations as possible – including customer services, self-optimization, management and orchestration. Comptel would

help with this objective by bringing catalogue-driven fulfilment and digital service lifecycle management, complex

event processing, applications for customer engagement and service monetization; and emerging technologies for

context-aware on-device commerce and IoT pattern detection.

The Tender Offer is not expected to have a material effect on the operations and business locations of, or on the number

of jobs at Comptel.

1.4 Financing of the Tender Offer

The Tender Offer will be financed through Nokia Group’s internal financing arrangements and no third party financing

is required to complete the Tender Offer. The Tender Offer is thus not conditional upon obtaining financing for the

Tender Offer.

The financing arrangements for the Tender Offer do not have any impact on the operations or obligations of Comptel.

1.5 Offeror’s Future Plans with respect to Comptel Shares

The Offeror’s intention is to acquire all the Shares and Option Rights in the Company through the Tender Offer.

Obligation to Make a Mandatory Offer

According to Chapter 11, Section 19 of the SMA, a shareholder holding more than thirty (30) percent or fifty (50)

percent of the voting rights attached to shares in a company the shares of which are subject to public trading, is

obligated to make a public tender offer (mandatory offer) for all the remaining shares and securities entitling to shares

in the company. However, under the SMA, if the relevant threshold has been exceeded by means of a voluntary public

tender offer, the voluntary offer does not need to be followed by a mandatory offer provided that the initial voluntary

offer has been made for all shares and other securities entitling to shares in the target company. Pursuant to the above

exception, the Offeror will not have an obligation to launch a subsequent mandatory offer after the completion of the

Tender Offer.

Redemption under the Finnish Companies Act

Under Chapter 18 of the Finnish Companies Act (624/2006, as amended, “FCA”) a shareholder holding more than

ninety (90) percent of the total number of shares and voting rights in a company shall have the right and obligation to

redeem the remainder of the issued and outstanding shares in the company.

Should the Offeror obtain more than ninety (90) percent of the Shares of the Company and of the voting rights attached

to the Shares, the Offeror intends to initiate compulsory acquisition proceedings under the above provisions of the FCA

in order to acquire title to all the Shares in the Company. In such situation, the Offeror intends to acquire also title to all

Option Rights not tendered in the Tender Offer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Option Rights.

Delisting from Nasdaq Helsinki

It is the Offeror’s intention that, as promptly as practicable following the initiation of the compulsory acquisition

proceedings under the FCA, the Company shall apply for the delisting of its Shares and Option Rights 2014A and

2015B from Nasdaq Helsinki.

1.6 Statement by the Comptel Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of Comptel has unanimously decided to recommend that the shareholders and holders of Option

Rights accept the Tender Offer.

Page 9: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

In order to support its assessment of the Tender Offer, the Board of Directors of Comptel has requested from Comptel’s

financial advisor, Sisu Partners Oy, a fairness opinion regarding the Tender Offer. Sisu Partners Oy's fairness opinion

dated 8 February 2017 states that the consideration offered to the shareholders and holders of Option Rights under the

Tender Offer is fair from a financial point of view.

After having obtained the fairness opinion from Sisu Partners Oy and having carefully evaluated the terms and

conditions of the Tender Offer from the point of view of Comptel and its shareholders and the holders of the Option

Rights and other available information, the Board of Directors of Comptel has on 21 February 2017 issued a statement

to the effect that the consideration offered by the Offeror in the Tender Offer is fair to the holders of Shares and Option

Rights. Accordingly, the Board of Directors of Comptel has unanimously decided to recommend the shareholders and

holders of Option Rights to accept the Tender Offer. The statement by the Comptel Board in accordance with Chapter

11, Section 13 of the SMA is attached to this Tender Offer Document as Annex A.

1.7 Undertakings of Shareholders

Nokia has received undertakings by the Major Shareholders and the President and CEO of Comptel personally and

through an entity controlled by him, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Comptel and the members of the Board

of Directors of Comptel according to which such shareholders subject to certain customary conditions irrevocably

undertake to accept the Tender Offer. Such shareholders represent jointly approximately 48.3 percent of all the Shares

and votes in Comptel.

1.8 Fees to Advisors

Nordea Bank (as defined below) serves as the financial advisor to Nokia and the Offeror in connection with the Tender

Offer and as the Arranger of the Tender Offer. Nokia is committed to pay to Nordea Bank total fees of approximately

EUR two (2) million based on the completion of the Tender Offer in connection with the Tender Offer.

3. SUMMARY OF THE TRANSACTION AGREEMENT

This summary is not an exhaustive presentation of all terms and conditions of the Transaction Agreement. The summary

aims at describing the terms and conditions of the Transaction Agreement to the extent that such terms and conditions

may materially affect the assessment of a shareholder or a holder of Option Rights of the Company of the terms and

conditions of the Tender Offer.

3.1 Background to the Transaction Agreement

Nokia and Comptel entered on 8 February 2017 into the Transaction Agreement under which Nokia has undertaken to

make through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Nokia Solutions and Networks Oy, a public tender offer for all the

Shares and Option Rights of Comptel that are not held by Comptel or any of its subsidiaries. For such purpose, Nokia

has transferred its rights and obligations under the Transaction Agreement to the Offeror pursuant to the Transaction

Agreement, whereby Nokia is automatically deemed to have guaranteed the performance of the Offeror’s obligations

under the Transaction Agreement (the Offeror and Comptel hereafter each a “Party” and together “Parties”).

Should the Offeror obtain more than ninety (90) percent of the Shares of the Company and of the voting rights attached

to the Shares, the Offeror intends to initiate compulsory acquisition proceedings under the provisions of the FCA and/or

under the terms of the Option Rights of Comptel in order to acquire title to all the Shares and Option Rights in the

Company. The Offeror intends to apply for the delisting of the Company’s Shares from Nasdaq Helsinki.

Background to the Transaction Agreement is detailed further in the section “Background and Objectives — Background

to the Tender Offer".

3.2 Offer Period and Offer Price

Under the Transaction Agreement, the Offer Period under the Tender Offer shall initially run for four (4) weeks and it

may be extended by the Offeror in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer.

The Transaction Agreement provides that the Offeror shall offer to acquire all the Shares for a consideration of

EUR 3.04 in cash for each Share subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer. With respect to the Option

Rights that have been validly tendered in the Tender Offer, the consideration offered shall be EUR 2.56 in cash for each

2014A Option right, EUR 2.16 in cash for each 2014B Option Right, EUR 1.53 in cash for each 2014C Option Right,

EUR 2.15 in cash for each 2015A Option Right, and EUR 2.15 in cash for each 2015B Option Right. Any Distribution

by Comptel after the Signing Date shall reduce the Share Offer Price by an amount equal to such Distribution per share

as set out below in section 4.2. Such Distribution shall not affect the Option Right Offer Price.

3.3 Conditions to Completion

Under the Transaction Agreement, the obligation of the Offeror to accept for payment the tendered Shares and Option

Rights and to complete the Tender Offer shall be subject to the fulfilment or, to the extent permitted by applicable law,

waiver by the Offeror of the Conditions to Completion (as defined below) described in section “Terms and Conditions

of the Tender Offer – Conditions to Completion of the Tender Offer”.

3.4 Permission by the Board of Directors of Comptel to Transfer the 2015 Option Rights

The Board of Directors of Comptel has under the Transaction Agreement undertaken to grant a permission to the holder

of the 2015 Option Rights to transfer his Option Rights to the Offeror by accepting the Tender Offer and tendering the

Option Rights into the Tender Offer despite the transfer restrictions contained in the terms and conditions of the Option

Rights, as described in section “Terms and Conditions of the Tender Offer – Object of the Tender Offer”.

3.5 Recommendation by the Board of Directors of Comptel

The Transaction Agreement provides that having evaluated the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer from the point

of view of the Company, the shareholders and the holders of the Option Rights, the Board of Directors of the Company

unanimously recommends that the shareholders and holders of the Option Rights accept the Tender Offer.

Pursuant to the Transaction Agreement the Board of Directors of Comptel has, in the event of a possible competing

offer or proposal, undertaken not to withdraw or change its recommendation for the Tender Offer unless the Board of

Directors determines in good faith, after taking advice from external legal counsel and financial advisor, that the

competing offer or proposal are from a financial point of view more favorable to the shareholders and the holders of the

Option Rights than the Tender Offer when judged as a whole (taking into account, among other things, the identity of

the offeror, the consideration and other terms and conditions as well as the availability and reliability of financing), and

that therefore (i) it would no longer be in the best interest of the shareholders and holders of the Option Rights to accept

the Tender Offer, and (ii) such withdrawal or change of the recommendation is required for the Board of Directors of

the Company to comply with its fiduciary duties towards the shareholders and the holders of the Option Rights under

Finnish laws. The Board of Directors may withdraw or change its recommendation for the Tender Offer in accordance

with the above only if prior to such withdrawal or change, the Board of Directors has complied with certain agreed

Page 14: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

14

procedures allowing the Offeror to assess the competing offer or proposal and to enhance its Tender Offer. For such

purpose, Comptel has undertaken to inform the Offeror with reasonably detailed information about the competing offer

or proposal (including identity of competing offeror, pricing and other main terms and conditions) and to provide the

Offeror with an opportunity to negotiate with the Board of Directors of Comptel about the matters arising from the

competing offer or proposal. Should the Offeror enhance its Tender Offer so as to be at least equally favorable to

Comptel’s shareholders and holders of the Option Rights as the competing offer or proposal, the Board of Directors has

undertaken to confirm and uphold the recommendation for the Tender Offer, as enhanced.

4. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE TENDER OFFER

The following sets forth the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer. Capitalized terms appearing in these terms and

conditions of the Tender Offer which are not defined in this Chapter 4 have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the

preceding sections of this Tender Offer Document.

4.1 Object of the Tender Offer

Through the Tender Offer, the Offeror offers to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Shares and Option Rights in

the Company that are not held by the Company or any of its subsidiaries on the terms and subject to the conditions set

forth below.

Nokia has guaranteed as for its own debt the performance of all of the Offeror’s obligations in relation to the Tender

Offer, including the payment of any offer consideration.

According to the terms and conditions of the Company's 2014 Option Rights, should anyone make a public tender offer

for all the Shares, Option Rights and other special rights entitling to Shares issued by the Company, a holder of the 2014

Option Rights may assign all the 2014 Option Rights held by him or her to the Offeror, although the transfer right

defined in the terms and conditions of the 2014 Option Rights had not yet begun. According to the terms and conditions

of the Company's 2015 Option Rights, the 2015 Option Rights are transferable when the relevant share subscription

period of the 2015 Option Rights has begun. On the date of this Tender Offer Document the share subscription period

permit the transfer of the 2015 Option Rights also before the beginning of the share subscription period. Under the

Transaction Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company has undertaken to grant a permission to the holder of

the 2015 Option Rights to transfer his 2015 Option Rights by accepting the Tender Offer and tendering the 2015 Option

Rights into the Tender Offer in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.

4.2 Offer Price

The Share Offer Price for each Share validly tendered in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer

is EUR 3.04 in cash. However, should the Company resolve on any Distribution after the signing date of the

Transaction Agreement, and should the record date of any such Distribution fall before any or all of the settlements of

the completion trades (whether after the expiry of the Offer Period or any Subsequent Offer Periods (as defined below))

under the Tender Offer, the Share Offer Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to any and each such Distribution

per Share, whereby the offer price so reduced shall constitute the Share Offer Price as defined under these terms and

Tender Offer is: EUR 2.56 in cash for each 2014A Option Right, EUR 2.16 in cash for each 2014B Option Right, EUR

1.53 in cash for each 2014C Option Right, EUR 2.15 in cash for each 2015A Option Right and EUR 2.15 in cash for

4.3 Offer Period

The Offer Period under the Tender Offer commences on 27 February 2017 at 9:30 a.m. (Finnish time) and expires on 29

March 2017 at 4:00 p.m. (Finnish time), unless the Offer Period is extended as set forth below.

The Offer Period may be extended by the Offeror (i) from time to time until the Closing Conditions (as defined below)

have been fulfilled or waived and (ii) with a Subsequent Offer Period (as defined below) in connection with the

extends the Offer Period unless the extended Offer Period is discontinued as set forth below. The maximum duration of

the Offer Period (including any extended Offer Period) is ten (10) weeks. However, if the Closing Conditions (as

defined below) have not been fulfilled due to a particular obstacle such as, for example, pending approval by a

competition authority, the Offeror may extend the Offer Period beyond ten (10) weeks until such obstacle has been

removed and the Offeror has had a reasonable time to respond to the situation. The date of the expiry of the extended

Offer Period will in such case be published at least two (2) weeks before such expiry. Further, any Subsequent Offer

Period (as defined below) may extend beyond ten (10) weeks.

The Offeror may discontinue any extended Offer Period should all the Closing Conditions (as defined below) be

fulfilled or waived by the Offeror before the expiry of the extended Offer Period and execute the sale and purchase of

the Shares and Option Rights validly tendered in accordance with its terms and not properly withdrawn in accordance

Page 18: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

18

with sections 4.9 and 4.10 below. Should the Offeror discontinue the extended Offer Period, the Offeror will announce

its decision thereon through a stock exchange release as soon as possible after such decision has been made and in any

the extended Offer Period, the extended Offer Period will expire on such earlier date and at the time indicated in such

announcement made by the Offeror.

The Offeror also reserves the right to extend the Offer Period in connection with the announcement of the final result of

the Tender Offer as set forth in section 4.8 (such extended Offer Period shall be referred to as the “Subsequent Offer

the transaction contemplated thereby;

Company and its affiliated entities, taken as whole, or (b) any event, condition, circumstance, development, occurrence,

change, effect or fact (each a “Effect”) that individually or in the aggregate, has, results in or would reasonably be

expected to have or result in a material adverse effect on the business, assets, financial condition or results of operations

of the Company and its affiliated entities, taken as a whole, excluding:

contemplated by or performance of obligations under, the Transaction Agreement and the transactions

contemplated thereby or the identity of the parties to the Transaction Agreement).

Under no circumstances shall any Material Adverse Change be deemed to exist to the extent the Effect causing the

(including any publicly disclosed annual or interim reports) published during the three (3) years preceding the date of

signing the Transaction Agreement or has been fairly disclosed in the due diligence information provided by the

Company to Nokia or the Offeror prior to the date of signing the Transaction Agreement.

The Offeror reserves the right to withdraw the Tender Offer in the event that any of the above Closing Conditions is not

fulfilled.

The Offeror can only invoke any of the Closing Conditions so as to cause the Tender Offer not to proceed, to lapse or to

be withdrawn if the circumstances which give rise to the right to invoke the relevant Closing Condition have a

significant meaning to the Offeror or Nokia in view of the Tender Offer, as referred to in the Regulations and

Guidelines 9/2013 (as may be amended or re-enacted from time to time) issued by the Finnish Financial Supervisory

Authority and the Helsinki Takeover Code.

The Closing Conditions set out herein are the exhaustive conditions for the completion of the Tender Offer.

The Offeror reserves the right to waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any of the Conditions to Completion

that have not been satisfied.

4.5 Obligation to increase the Tender Offer or to pay compensation

The Offeror reserves the right to acquire Shares and/or Option Rights also in public trading on Nasdaq Helsinki or

otherwise during and after the Offer Period (including any extension thereof) and any Subsequent Offer Period or

otherwise outside the Tender Offer.

If the Offeror or any party referred to in Chapter 11, Section 5 of the SMA acquires, before the expiry of the Offer

Period, Shares and/or Option Rights at a higher price than the Share Offer Price and/or the Option Right Offer Price or

otherwise on terms that are more favourable than those of the Tender Offer, the Offeror must according to Chapter 11,

Section 25 of the SMA amend the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer to correspond to this acquisition on more

favourable terms (obligation to increase the offer). The Offeror shall then, without delay, make public the triggering of

the obligation to increase the offer and pay, in connection with the completion of the Tender Offer, and in addition to

the Share Offer Price and/or the Option Right Offer Price, the difference between the more favourable acquisition terms

and the consideration offered in the Tender Offer to the holders of securities who have accepted the Tender Offer.

If the Offeror or any party referred to in Chapter 11, Section 5 of the SMA acquires, during the nine (9) months

following the expiry of the Offer Period, Shares and/or Option Rights at a higher price than the Share Offer Price and/or

the Option Right Offer Price or otherwise on terms that are more favorable than those of the Tender Offer, the Offeror

must according to Chapter 11, Section 25 of the SMA compensate those holders of securities who have accepted the

Tender Offer for the amount equal to the difference between the more favorable acquisition terms and the consideration

offered in the Tender Offer (obligation to compensate). The Offeror shall then, without delay, make public the

triggering of the obligation to compensate and pay the difference between the more favorable acquisition terms and the

consideration offered in the Tender Offer within one month after the triggering of the obligation to compensate to the

holders of securities who have accepted the Tender Offer.

According to Chapter 11, Section 25, Subsection 5 of the SMA, the obligation to compensate shall, however, not be

triggered in case the payment of a higher price than the Share Offer Price (or the Option Right Offer Price) is based on

an arbitral award pursuant to the FCA, provided that the Offeror or any party referred to in Chapter 11, Section 5 of the

SMA has not offered to acquire Shares (or Option Rights) on terms that are more favorable than those of the Tender

Offer before or during the arbitral proceedings.

4.6 Acceptance Procedure of the Tender Offer

Shares

The Tender Offer must be accepted separately for each book-entry account. A shareholder of the Company giving the

acceptance must have a cash account in a financial institution operating in Finland or abroad. A shareholder may only

Page 20: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

20

accept the Tender Offer unconditionally and for every Share on the book-entry account mentioned in the acceptance

form on the date and time of the execution of the sale and purchase of the Shares. Acceptance given during the Offer

Period is effective also until the end of any extended Offer Period.

Most of the Finnish book-entry account operators will send a notification of the Tender Offer, including instructions

and the relevant acceptance form to their customers who are registered as shareholders in the shareholders’ register of

the Company maintained by Euroclear Finland Ltd. (“Euroclear”). Shareholders who do not receive such notification

from their account operator or asset manager can contact any branch office of Nordea Bank AB (publ), Finnish Branch

(“Nordea Bank”) where such shareholders shall receive necessary information and can give their acceptance.

A shareholder in the Company whose shareholdings are registered in the name of a nominee and who wishes to accept

the Tender Offer shall effect such acceptance in accordance with the nominee’s instructions. The Offeror will not send

acceptance forms or other documents related to the Tender Offer to such shareholders in the Company.

Pledged Shares may only be tendered with the consent of the relevant pledgee. The obtaining of such consent shall be

the responsibility of the relevant shareholder in the Company. The consent by the pledgee shall be delivered in writing

to the account operator.

A shareholder in the Company who is registered as a shareholder in the shareholders’ register of the Company and who

wishes to accept the Tender Offer shall submit a properly completed and duly executed acceptance form to the account

operator managing the shareholder’s book-entry account in accordance with its instructions and within the time limit set

by the account operator or, in the case such account operator does not accept acceptance forms (e.g. Euroclear), such

shareholder shall contact any branch office of Nordea Bank to give his/her acceptance to tender the Shares. The

acceptance form shall be submitted so that it is received during the Offer Period or, if the Offer Period has been

extended, during such extended Offer Period, however, always in accordance with the instructions of the relevant

account operator. In the event of a Subsequent Offer Period, the acceptance form shall be submitted so that it is received

during the Subsequent Offer Period, however, always in accordance with the instructions of the relevant account

operator.

The method of delivery of acceptance forms is at the shareholder’s option and risk, and the delivery will be deemed

made only when actually received by the relevant account operator or Nordea Bank. The Offeror reserves the right to

reject any acceptance given in an incorrect or incomplete manner. The Offeror may also reject any partial tender of the

Shares per book-entry account.

By accepting the Tender Offer, the shareholder of the Company authorizes Nordea Bank or a party authorized by

Nordea Bank or the account operator managing the shareholder’s book-entry account to enter a transfer restriction or a

sales reservation on the shareholder’s book-entry account after the shareholder has delivered its acceptance of the

Tender Offer. In addition, the shareholder who has accepted the Tender Offer authorizes Nordea Bank or a party

authorized by Nordea Bank or the account operator managing the shareholder’s book-entry account to perform the

necessary entries and to take all other actions required to technically execute the Tender Offer and to sell all the Shares

held at such book-entry account at the time of the execution of trades under the Tender Offer to the Offeror in

accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer.

A shareholder that has validly accepted the Tender Offer and that has not properly withdrawn its acceptance in

accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer may not sell or otherwise dispose of its tendered Shares.

A transfer restriction in respect of the Shares will be registered in the relevant book-entry account after a shareholder

has submitted the acceptance for the Tender Offer. If the Tender Offer is not completed or if the tender is properly

withdrawn by the shareholder in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, the transfer restriction

registered on the tendered Shares in the relevant book-entry account will be removed as soon as possible and within

approximately three (3) Finnish banking days following the announcement that the Tender Offer will not be completed

or the receipt of a notice of withdrawal in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer.

A holder of Option Rights whose holdings are registered in the name of a nominee and who wishes to accept the Tender

reserves the right to reject any acceptance given in an incorrect or incomplete manner. The Offeror may also reject any

partial tender of the Option Rights per book-entry account.

By accepting the Tender Offer, the holder of Option Rights authorizes Nordea Bank or a party authorized by Nordea

Bank or the account operator managing the holder’s book-entry account to enter a transfer restriction or a sales

reservation after the holder of Option Rights has delivered its acceptance of the Tender Offer. In addition, the holder of

Option Rights who has accepted the Tender Offer authorizes Nordea Bank or a party authorized by Nordea Bank or the

account operator managing the holder’s book-entry account to perform the necessary entries and to take all other actions

required to technically execute the Tender Offer and to sell all the Option Rights held at such book-entry account at the

after a holder of Option Rights has submitted the acceptance for the Tender Offer. If the Tender Offer is not completed

or if the tender is properly withdrawn by the holder of Option Rights in accordance with the terms and conditions of the

Tender Offer, the transfer restriction registered on the tendered Option Rights in the relevant book-entry account will be

removed as soon as possible and within approximately three (3) Finnish banking days following the announcement that

the Tender Offer will not be completed or the receipt of a notice of withdrawal in accordance with the terms and

conditions of the Tender Offer.

2014C Option Rights, 2015A Option Rights and 2015B Option Rights not registered in the Finnish book-entry

securities system

Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Option Rights, the share subscription period has not begun with respect to

the Option Rights belonging to the series 2014C, 2015A and 2015B and these Option Rights have not been registered in

A holder of Option Rights of the Company not registered in the Finnish book-entry securities system may only accept

the Tender Offer for all Option Rights held by him/her on the date of the execution of the sale and purchase of the

abroad.

Nordea Bank will send a notification of the Tender Offer, including instructions and the relevant acceptance form, to all

holders of Option Rights who are registered at the beginning of the Offer Period to the registry of holders of Option

Rights held by the Company. The notification and instructions are sent to the address stated in such registry. If the

holder of Option Rights does not receive such notification and acceptance form from Nordea Bank, or if the instructions

and acceptance form cannot be sent because the address of the holder of Option Rights is unknown, the holder of

Option Rights can contact the Company which shall instruct the holder of Option Rights on giving his/her acceptance.

writing together with the acceptance form.

A holder of Option Rights who wishes to accept the Tender Offer shall submit a properly completed and duly executed

4.7 Withdrawal Rights

In accordance with the Chapter 11, Section 16, Subsection 1 of the SMA, the acceptances for the Shares and the Option

Rights validly tendered in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer may be withdrawn at any time

during the Offer Period or, if the Offer Period has been extended, during such extended Offer Period, until the Offeror

has announced that all the Conditions to Completion have been fulfilled by the Offeror or the Offeror has waived the

right to invoke them, thereby declaring the Tender Offer unconditional. After such announcement, the acceptances for

the Shares and the Option Rights already tendered may no longer be withdrawn except in the event that a third party

announces a competing public tender offer for the Shares and the Option Rights before the execution of the sale and

purchase of the Shares and the Option Rights in accordance with sections 4.9 and 4.10 below. The holders of the Shares

and/or the Option Rights validly tendered may also withdraw their acceptance during the Offer Period if the Offer

Period has lasted over ten (10) weeks and the Tender Offer has not been completed.

The proper withdrawal of the acceptance for the Shares and/or the Option Rights validly tendered requires that a written

notice of withdrawal is submitted to the same account operator to whom the acceptance form with respect to such

Shares and/or Option Rights was submitted. In case the acceptance form with respect to Shares and/or Option Rights

was submitted to Nordea Bank, the notice of withdrawal must be submitted to Nordea Bank. In case of holdings that are

registered in the name of a nominee, the holders of Shares or Option Rights shall instruct the nominee to submit the

notice of withdrawal.

If a holder of Shares or Option Rights registered in the Finnish book-entry securities system withdraws his/her

acceptance of the Tender Offer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, the transfer restriction

registered on the tendered Shares and Option Rights in the relevant book-entry account will be removed as soon as

possible and within approximately three (3) Finnish banking days following the receipt of a notice of withdrawal in

securities system, Nordea Bank will send a proof of the withdrawal to the relevant holder of Option Rights to the

address registered to the registry of holders of Option Rights held by the Company in case of a possible withdrawal of

the acceptance of the Tender Offer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer.

any other jurisdiction where the Tender Offer is not to be made (see section “Important information”), and all guidance

from custodians or nominees specifying bank accounts in such jurisdictions will be rejected. Actual time of receipt for

4.12 Transfer Tax and Other Payments

The Offeror will pay the transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale and purchase of the Shares and Option Rights in

connection with the completion of the Tender Offer. The Offeror will not, however, be responsible for payment of such

transfer tax, where the tax liability is based on the Finnish Tax Administration’s position on taxation of employment

based options stated in its guidance (record no. A243/200/2016). According to the guidance, such transfer tax liability

with respect to employment based option arrangements arises at the moment when a subscription right is granted, but

the amount of payable transfer tax can only be determined upon exercising the right (e.g., in connection with the Tender

Offer when the Option Rights are disposed).

Fees charged by account operators, asset managers, nominees or any other person for registering the release of any

pledges or other possible restrictions preventing a sale of the relevant Shares or Option Rights, as well as fees relating to

a withdrawal of the tender by a shareholder or a holder of Option Rights in accordance with section 4.7 above, will be

borne by each shareholder and holder of Option Rights. The Offeror shall be responsible for other customary fees

relating to book-entry registrations required for the purposes of the Tender Offer, the sale and purchase of the Shares

and Option Rights tendered under the Tender Offer or the payment of the Share Offer Price and the Option Right Offer

Price, respectively.

4.13 Other Issues

The Offeror reserves the right to amend the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer in accordance with Chapter 11,

amend the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer (including a potential withdrawal of the Tender Offer) in

accordance with Chapter 11, Section 17 of the SMA if, during the Offer Period or any extended Offer Period, a third

party announces a competing public tender offer for the Shares and Option Rights.

The Offeror shall have sole discretion to determine all other issues relating to the Tender Offer, subject to the

requirements of applicable law as well as the provisions of the Transaction Agreement.

The Tender Offer is not being made directly or indirectly in any jurisdiction where either the making of or participating

in such tender offer would be prohibited by applicable law or would require registration or further documents or

measures in addition to those required under the Finnish law. As such, this Tender Offer Document and related

acceptance forms are not and may not be distributed, forwarded or transmitted in or into any jurisdiction where such

27

shares held by the Company may be transferred to shareholders pro rata to their holdings or in a directed share issue in

deviation from the shareholders’ pre-emptive subscription rights in case the deviation is justified by a weighty financial

reason for the Company, such as development of the capital structure of the Company, financing or implementing

acquisitions or other arrangements or implementing share-based incentive programs to the Company’s personnel. The

authorization also entitles to decide on a share issue free of charge to the Company itself. The number of shares to be

issued to the Company shall not exceed 10,700,000, including the number of own shares acquired by the Company by

virtue of the authorization to repurchase the Company's own shares. The Board of Directors shall decide on other terms

authorization concerning the implementation of the Company's share-based incentive programs, which shall be valid for

five years after the decision by the Annual General Meeting. The authorization revoked the corresponding authorization

decided in the Annual General Meeting of 9 April 2015.

The Board of Directors of the Company has proposed to the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company

or treasury shares in the Company against consideration, either by paying the subscription price in cash or by setting off

the subscriber's receivable against the subscription price. The total number of new shares, including the shares issued

pursuant to the special rights, would be 21,400,000 at the maximum. The number of treasury shares held by the

Company that can be assigned and/or obtained on the basis of special rights would not exceed 10,700,000. Based on the

proposed authorization new shares could be issued and existing treasury shares held by the Company could be

transferred to shareholders pro rata to their holdings or in a directed share issue in deviation from the shareholders’ pre-

emptive subscription rights in case the deviation is justified by a weighty financial reason for the Company, such as

development of the capital structure of the Company, financing or implementing acquisitions or other arrangements or

implementing share-based incentive programs to the Company’s personnel. The authorization would also entitle the

Board of Directors to decide on a share issue free of charge to the Company itself. The number of shares that could be

issued to the Company would not exceed 10,700,000, including the number of own shares acquired by the Company by

virtue of the authorization to repurchase the Company's own shares. The subscription price of the new shares and the

consideration paid for the Company’s own shares would be recorded in the invested non-restricted equity fund. The

Board of Directors has proposed that it would decide on other terms and conditions related to the authorizations. The

authorizations would be valid until 30 June 2018, apart from the authorization concerning the implementation of the

General Meeting. The authorization would revoke the corresponding authorization decided in the Annual General

Nokia's largest business, the Networks business, is divided into four business groups: Mobile Networks, Fixed

Controller, a SDP that secures network borders and connects an exploding number of devices, stands out for its

the IoT, the increased need for security and privacy and the impact of augmented intelligence and machine learning.

These trends impact the way networks will operate, how new services and business models will be monetized, how

customer expectations will evolve and the speed at which CSPs and TXLEs will need to innovate.

operate larger networks and more services with fewer staff through virtualization and automation;

predict issues before they happen with augmented intelligence;

scale IoT services with a platform that handles data collection, event processing, device management, data

contextualization, data analytics, and end-to-end security;

increase the success of digital transformations with improved processes, collaboration and profitability; and

secure services and data with confidence.

Growing this business into a standalone software business at scale is a key tenent of Nokia's strategy.

The acquisition of Alcatel Lucent in January 2016 strengthened Nokia's already significant position in the field of next

generation technology. With the acquisition, Nokia became one of the market leaders in North America and the leading

supplier headquartered outside the country in China. In addition, Nokia is currently preparing a joint venture that will

combine its telecommunications infrastructure businesses in China with Alcatel Lucent Shanghai Bell, a joint venture of

Alcatel Lucent and the Chinese company China Huaxin Post & Telecommunication Economy Development Center.

The new joint venture is expected to generate added value to both Nokia and its Chinese partner in the joint venture.

Moreover, with the Alcatel Lucent acquisition, Nokia also strengthened its position in Europe, Latin America, the

STATEMENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

1. Background for the statement

Pursuant to the Finnish Securities Market Act, the Board of Directors of Comptel shall prepare a public statement

regarding the Tender Offer.

The statement shall include a well-founded assessment of the Tender Offer from the perspective of Comptel and

its shareholders as well as of the strategic plans and their likely effects on the operations and employment of

Comptel presented by the Offeror in the Tender Offer Document.

For the purposes of issuing this statement, the Offeror has submitted to the Board of Directors of Comptel the draft

version of the Finnish language Tender Offer Document in the form in which the Offeror has filed it with the

Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority for approval on February 16, 2017.

Page 35: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

In preparing its statement, the Board of Directors of Comptel has relied on information provided in the Offeror’s

announcement regarding the Tender Offer published on February 9, 2017 and the draft Tender Offer Document by

the Offeror and has not independently verified this information. Accordingly, the Board of Directors’ assessments

of the consequences of the Tender Offer on Comptel’s business and employees should be treated with caution.

2. Assessment regarding strategic plans presented by the Offeror and their likely effects on the operations

and employment of Comptel

Information given by the Offeror in the Tender Offer Document

The Board of Directors of Comptel has assessed the Offeror’s strategic plans based on the statements in Offeror’s

announcement regarding the Tender Offer published on February 9, 2017 and the draft Tender Offer Document.

Based on information provided by Nokia, it is the intention of Nokia and the Offeror that Comptel will continue to

operate as a separate unit, but its businesses might be eventually harmonized with and/or integrated into the

standalone software business operated by Applications & Analytics business group of Nokia group based upon an

integration plan to be developed by the management of Nokia. Further, Nokia has presented that certain employees

and members of senior management of Comptel will play an important role in Nokia’s organization following the

completion of the Tender Offer. Nokia has set forth that in order to encourage these key employees of Comptel to

remain in the Company, the Offeror intends to offer them certain retention arrangements following the completion

of the Tender Offer. The Offeror, however, intends, based on information provided by Nokia, to change the

composition of the Board of Directors of Comptel after the completion of the Tender Offer.

According to Nokia, the planned acquisition is part of Nokia’s strategy to build a standalone software business at

scale by expanding and strengthening its software portfolio and go-to-market capabilities with additional sales

capacity and a strategic partner network. Comptel would bolster Nokia’s software portfolio by adding critical

solutions for catalogue-driven service orchestration and fulfillment, intelligent data processing, customer

engagement, and agile service monetization. The combination of Nokia’s Service Assurance portfolio and

Comptel’s Service Orchestration portfolio would enable a dynamic closed loop between service assurance and

fulfillment that simplifies management of complex heterogeneous networks. When combined with Nokia’s

Cloudband(TM) and Nuage(TM) portfolios, Nokia would be able to provide customers with complete, end-to-end

orchestration of complex Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networking (SDN)

deployments.

In November 2016, Nokia announced its long-term strategy, Rebalancing for Growth. As part of the strategy,

Nokia is strengthening its software capabilities in key areas: portfolio, services and go-to-market. The planned

acquisition of Comptel would bolster go-to-market efforts with a software-dedicated sales force and strong partner

network. It would also support Nokia’s desire to build a portfolio that allows customers to automate as much of

their network and business operations as possible – including customer services, self-optimization, management

and orchestration. Comptel would help with this objective by bringing catalogue-driven fulfilment and digital

service lifecycle management, complex event processing, applications for customer engagement and service

monetization; and emerging technologies for context-aware on-device commerce and IoT pattern detection.

The Tender Offer is not expected to have a material effect on the operations and business locations of, or on the

number of jobs at Comptel.

Page 36: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

Board assessment

The Board of Directors of Comptel believes that Nokia’s global reach, strength of brand, and cross-selling

opportunities will benefit the activities of Comptel. Comptel will also gain entry to new markets in which Nokia

already has a strong presence, especially the United States. The greater size and financial strength of Nokia could

also enhance Comptel’s position with respect to its existing and potential customers. Combining Comptel’s

business with Nokia’s will offer the customers of both Comptel and Nokia a wider and more innovative software

portfolio which could improve the competitiveness of the combined business unit especially in the eyes of larger

customers. The Board of Directors of Comptel believes that the combination will also deepen the network know-

how of the combined entity.

The Board of Directors of Comptel believes that the combination creates an agile player in the OSS market and

forms a foundation for profitable growth and innovation. Combining Comptel’s business with a large and

recognized player such as Nokia, Comptel’s long-time partner, will also reduce risks related to Comptel’s current

business, which result from the consolidation between the market players in Comptel’s sector and potential

failures in the development or launch of new product areas, among others. In addition to these benefits to Comptel

and its customers, the combination of Comptel’s business with Nokia will also create opportunities for personal

and professional development for the employees of Comptel.

The Board of Directors of Comptel considers that the information on the Offeror’s strategic plans concerning

Comptel included in the announcement regarding the Tender Offer published on February 9, 2017 and in the draft

Tender Offer Document is of a general nature. However, based on information presented to Comptel and its Board

of Directors, the Board of Directors of Comptel evaluates that the completion of the Tender Offer is not expected

to have any material effect on Comptel’s operations and business locations or on the number of jobs at Comptel.

On the date of this statement the Board of Directors of Comptel has not received any formal statement as to the

effects of the Tender Offer to the employments at Comptel from Comptel's employees.

3. Assessment of the Board of Directors from the perspective of Comptel and its shareholders and holders of

option rights

Introduction

In evaluating the Tender Offer, analyzing alternative opportunities available to Comptel and concluding on its

statement, the Board of Directors has considered several factors, such as Comptel’s recent financial performance,

current position and future prospects, and the historical trading price of Comptel’s share.

The Board of Directors’ assessment of continuing the business operations of Comptel as an independent company

has been based on reasonable future-oriented estimates which include uncertainties, whereas the offer

consideration and the premium included therein is not subject to any uncertainty other than the fulfillment of the

conditions to completion of the Tender Offer.

In order to support its assessment of the Tender Offer, the Board of Directors of Comptel has received a fairness

opinion regarding the Tender Offer (the “Fairness Opinion”) from Comptel’s financial advisor, Sisu Partners.

Page 37: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

The Fairness Opinion, subject to the assumptions and qualifications set out therein and dated February 8, 2017,

states that the offer consideration, from a financial point of view, is believed to be fair. The Fairness Opinion is

attached as Appendix 1 to this statement.

Board assessment

The Board of Directors of Comptel believes that the consideration offered by the Offeror to the shareholders and

holders of option rights is fair to such holders based on an assessment of the issues and factors, which the Board of

Directors has concluded to be material in evaluating the Tender Offer. These include, amongst other factors:

the premium being offered;

historical trading price of Comptel’s share taking into account the fact that, in the opinion of the Board of

Directors of Comptel, Comptel’s future value creation potential has been reflected in the current trading price to a

large extent;

the information and assumptions on the business operations and finances of Comptel at the date of this statement

and their expected future development including

o the consolidation trend between the market players in Comptel’s sector and the risks for smaller players to be left

out of delivery contracts;

o Comptel’s new product areas, analytics and automation of customer’s delivery processes, will require significant

investments in the future to remain competitive;

o development or launch of new product areas involves uncertainties;

the valuation multiples of Comptel shares compared to the industry multiples before the announcement of the

Tender Offer;

valuations and analysis made and commissioned by the Board of Directors as well as discussions with external

financial advisors;

the support by significant shareholders in Comptel for the Tender Offer; and

the Fairness Opinion issued by Sisu Partners.

The Board of Directors has concluded that the relevant business prospects of Comptel provide opportunities for

Comptel to develop its business as an independent company for the benefit of Comptel and its shareholders and

holders of option rights. However, taking into consideration the risks and uncertainties associated with such stand-

alone approach as well as the terms and conditions of the draft Tender Offer Document, the Board of Directors has

concluded that the Tender Offer is a more favorable alternative for the shareholders and holders of option rights.

Comptel has in the Transaction Agreement agreed to a standard non-solicitation clause whereby Comptel has

undertaken not to solicit competing proposals or, subject to the fiduciary duties of the Board of Directors of

Comptel, promote the progress of such proposals. Having carefully assessed the terms and conditions of the

Tender Offer, the Board of Directors of Comptel has concluded that entering into the Transaction Agreement,

including said non-solicitation clause, is in the interest of Comptel’s shareholders and holders of option rights.

4. Recommendation of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of Comptel has carefully assessed the Tender Offer and its terms and conditions based on

the draft Tender Offer Document, the Fairness Opinion, and other available information.

Page 38: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

Based on the foregoing, the Board of Directors of Comptel deems that the Tender Offer and the amount of the

offer consideration offered for the shares and option rights are under the prevailing circumstances fair to Comptel

shareholders and holders of option rights.

Given the above-presented viewpoints, the Board of Directors of Comptel unanimously recommends that the

shareholders of Comptel and holders of option rights accept the Tender Offer.

This statement is based on an assessment of the issues and factors which the Board of Directors has concluded to

be material in evaluating the Tender Offer, including, but not limited to, the information and assumptions on the

business operations and finances of Comptel at the date of this statement and their expected future development.

All members of the Board of Directors have participated in the decision making concerning the statement. The

evaluation of independence of the members of the Board of Directors is available on the website of Comptel.

5. Other Issues

The Board of Directors of Comptel notes that combining the operations of Comptel with Nokia’s operations will,

in addition to synergy benefits, pose challenges to both parties, and the combination may, as is common in such

processes, involve unforeseeable risks.

The Board of Directors of Comptel notes that the shareholders and holders of option rights of Comptel should also

take into account the risks related to non-acceptance of the Tender Offer. If the Offeror waives the acceptance

condition of 90 per cent of the shares and votes, the completion of the Tender Offer would reduce the number of

Comptel shareholders and the number of shares, which would otherwise be publicly traded. Depending on the

number of shares validly tendered in the Tender Offer, this could have an adverse effect on the liquidity and value

of the shares.

Pursuant to Chapter 18 of the Finnish Companies Act (624/2006, as amended), a shareholder with more than 90

per cent of all shares and votes in a company shall have the right to acquire, and subject to a demand by the other

shareholders also be obligated to redeem, the shares owned by the other shareholders. The shares held by

Comptel’s shareholders who have not accepted the Tender Offer may be redeemed through compulsory

redemption proceedings under the Finnish Companies Act under the conditions set out therein.

Comptel has undertaken to comply with the Helsinki Takeover Code referred to in Chapter 11 Section 28 of the

Finnish Securities Markets Act.

This statement of the Board of Directors of Comptel does not constitute investment or tax advice, and the Board of

Directors of Comptel does not specifically evaluate herein the general price development or the risks relating to

the shares in general. Shareholders and holders of option rights must independently decide whether to accept the

Tender Offer, and they should take into account all relevant information available to them, including information

presented in the Tender Offer Document and this statement as well as any other factors affecting the value of the

shares.

Comptel is being advised by Sisu Partners as financial advisor and Castrén & Snellman Attorneys Ltd. as legal

advisor.

IMPAIRMENT TANGIBLE AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Comptel assesses at each reporting date whether there is any indica-tion of impairment of assets. If there are such indications, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. In addition, the recoverable amount is estimated annually for the following assets regardless of there be-ingany indicationsof impairment:goodwillandunfinishedintangibleassets. The need for impairment is reviewed at the level of cash-gen-erating units which is the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable,mainlyindependentcashflows.

The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. The value in use represents the dis-countedfuturenetcashflowsexpectedtobederivedfromanassetora cash-generating unit.

An impair-ment loss is reversed if there are any indications that the conditions and the recoverable amount have changed since the impairment loss was recognised. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recog-nised. An impairment loss recognised for goodwill is never reversed.

SHARE-BASED PAYMENTSComptel has several option schemes and they are paid out as equity instruments. Equity-settled share-based schemes are measured at fair valueatthegrantdateandexpensedinprofitorlossonastraight-linebasis over the vesting period. The expense determined at the grant date is based on the Group’s estimate on the number of those options that eventually vest at the end of the vesting period. The fair value is determinedusingtheBlack-Scholesoptionpricingmodel.

Comptel has also share-based incentive programs. The share-based incentiveprogramsprovidethekeypersonnelof theComptelGroup with a possibility to receive shares of the company as compen-sation. The compensation paid based on the share-based incentive programs is paid as a combination of company shares and cash after the vesting period has expired. Costs incurred from the share-based incentive programs are recognised as employee benefit expensesover the commitment period.

The amounts recognised as provisions shall be the best estimate at the end of the reporting period and if the best estimates change the provisions are adjusted. Changes in the provision are recognised similarlyinprofitorlossastheoriginalprovision.

A warranty provision is recognised when a product that embodies a warranty is sold or delivered. The amount of the warranty provision is based on experience-based information about the materialisation of warranty costs.

A restructuring provision is recognised when Comptel has prepared a detailed plan for restructuring, commenced the implementation of the plan and announced about the plan. A restructuring plan includes at least the following information: the business concerned, the principal locations affected, the location, function and approximate number of employees who will be compensated for terminating their services, the expenditures thatwill be undertaken andwhen the planwill beimplemented. No provision is recognised for the expenditure arising from the Group’s continuing operations.

Aprovisionisrecognisedwhentheexpectedeconomicbenefitstobe derived by the Group from a contract are lower than the unavoida-ble cost of meeting its obligations under the contract.

INCOME TAXESThe income taxes in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income consist of current tax and the change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.Current tax is calculated on the taxable profit for theperiod determined in accordance with local tax rules and is adjusted with the tax for previous years. The deferred tax amount attributable to othercomprehensiveincomeorequityisreflectedinothercomprehen-sive income or equity, accordingly.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are provided using the statement

offinancialpositionliabilitymethod,providingfortemporarydifferenc-esbetweenthecarryingamountsofassetsandliabilitiesforfinancialreporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The enacted or substantially enacted tax rate at the reporting date is used as the tax rate. In Comptel the main temporary differences arise from the depreciation of tangible assets not deducted in taxation, the fair value measurement of derivatives, capitalisation of development costs, paid withholding taxes, which Comptel estimates to be able to deduct from the future income taxes and the reversal of goodwill amortisation on Group level.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised at their full amounts in the statementoffinancialposition,anddeferredtaxassetsarerecognisedto the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be availableagainst which the deductible temporary difference can be utilised.

REVENUE RECOGNITION AND NET SALESRevenuefromthesaleofgoodsisrecognisedwhensignificantrisksand rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. Revenue from services is recognised when the service has been performed. License revenue that includes no work performance is recognisedwhen the license is delivered. The number of subscribers at a client is reviewed continuously. If their number exceeds the number agreed on in the terms of the license, the client can be charged for the increased number of subscribers. This license upgrade revenue is recognised upon invoicing.Maintenance revenue is recognisedas incomeonastraight-line basis over the maintenance term.

LONG-TERM PROJECTS

Revenue and expenses from long-term projects are recognised using

the percentage-of-completion method, when the outcome of a long-term project can be estimated reliably. The revenue from a long-term projectcomprises license incomeandwork.Theoutcomeofa long-term project can be estimated reliably when the revenue and expenses expected as well as the progress made towards completing a particu-lar project can be measured reliably and when it is probable that the economicbenefitsassociatedwiththeprojectwillflowtotheGroup.InComptel the degree of completion of a long-term project is determined bytherelationofaccruedworkhourstoestimatedoverallworkhours.If it is probable that total project costs will exceed total project revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.

Net sales is adjusted for discounts granted, sales-related indirect taxes and effects of the translation differences arisen on the translation of the trade receivables denominated in foreign currencies.

A separate warranty provision is recognised to cover costs under warranty periods following the completion of the projects. The total estimated margin of onerous projects is recognised as an expense and a provision.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Thecalculationofearningspershareisbasedontheprofitattributableto ordinary shareholders that is divided by the weighted average num-ber of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Treasury shares owned by the Group are excluded when calculating the weighted average number of ordinary shares. For the purpose of calculating diluted earnings per share using the treasury stock method, theGroup assumes the following: the exercise of dilutive warrants and optionsoccurredatthebeginningofthefinancialperiod,theexerciseof dilutive warrants and options granted during the period followed at their grant date and the proceeds from their exercise was spent

byacquiring treasurysharesat theaveragemarketpriceduring theperiod. The denominator includes the weighted average number of ordinary shares and the shares to be issued following the exercise of warrants and options.

The assumptions of the exercise of options is excluded when cal-culating diluted earnings per share if the exercise price of the warrants andoptionsexceedstheaveragesharemarketpriceduringtheperiod.The options and warrants have a dilutive effect only if the average sharemarketpriceduring theperiod ishigher than thesubscriptionprice of an option and a warrant.

APPLICATION OF NEW OR AMENDED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONSThe below described standards, interpretations or their amendments have been published but are not yet effective and Comptel has not adopted them prior to the mandatory application date. Comptel will adopt the following amended or new standards and interpretations issued by the IASB as soon as they are effective if the effective dated is thesameas thebeginningof thefinancialyear,or if theeffectivedate is different, they will be adopted as from the beginning of the followingfinancialyear:

Based onmeasurement, financial as-setsareclassifiedintotwomaingroups:financialassetsatamortisedcost and financial assets at fair value. Classification depends on acompany’s business model and the characteristics of contractual cash flows.Forfinancialliabilities,thestandardretainsmostoftheIAS39requirements. Comptel Group is yet to assess the full impact of the amendments. The standard has not been endorsed for use in the EU yet.

IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28 Investment entities. The new stand-ard is not expected to have an impact on Comptel’s consolidated financialstatements.

IFRS 11 Joint Arragements. The amendment to the standard requires that for the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation, in which the activity constitutes a business, the principles for business combinations accounting are applied. The amendment is estimated nottohavesignificanteffectsontheconsolidatedfinancialstatements.

IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts. The standard allows rate-regulated entities to continue reporting regulatory deferral ac-countbalancesinconnectionwiththefirst-timeadoptionofIFRS.Thestandard isnotestimated tohaveaneffecton theGroup’sfinancialstatements.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with customers. The standard includes a five-stepmodel for revenue recognition. The recognitionmodel includes clearly more detailed instructions than the currently valid standards. Comptel is evaluating the impact of the standard and will implement it according to the schedule.

IFRS 16 Leases. The standard specifies how the lease agree-ments will be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term

is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. The standard is estimated to have an impact on Comptel’s consolidated financialstatements.

IAS 16 and IAS 38 Clarification of acceptable methods of depre-ciation and amortization. The amendment rebuts the revenue-based method of depreciating tangible assets and allows, to a limited extend, the application of revenue-based method of depreciating for intangible assets. The amendments are not estimated to have an impact on Comptel’sconsolidatedfinancialstatements.

In November 2006 Comptel Corporation received a refusal from the Board of AdjustmentoftheTaxOfficeforMajorCorporationsconcerningthecreditingoftaxeswithheld at source in taxation of 2004. The claim for adjustment concerns the crediting of taxes withheld at source the company has paid in 2004 to avoid double taxation.

Comptel Corporation recognised and paid these taxes withheld at source for 2004 in 2005. According to the Board of Adjustment’s decision currently in force, Comptel Corporation has expensed taxes withheld at source amounting to EUR 3,510 thousand in 2014. The total withholding taxes expensed between 2004 and 2015 amount to EUR 12,179 thousand.

Comptel Corporation has received license revenue from the countries with which Finland has a tax treaty. The purpose of the tax treaties is to avoid double taxation. Taxes have been withheld from the payments made to Comptel Corporation, in accordance with the royalty article of the related tax treaty, in the source country of the revenue. If the taxes withheld at source paid by Comptel Corporation will not be credited in Finland, the revenue from the customers located in the tax treaty countries will be subject to double taxation.

The application process to prevent Comptel’s double taxation is still pending with theMinistryofFinanceinFinland.However,theprocessbetweenthestatesisveryslow and the timing of a change is hard to forecast. The interpretation of tax treaties may result in different views between the countries in questions. This could mean that the double taxation will prevail.

There are confirmed losses in taxation for the group company Xtract Oy, totally13,851 thousand euros (11,404 thousand euros in 2014). Deferred taxes from the losses werenotbooked,becauseoftheuncertaintyofthepossibilitiestoutilizethelosses.

Thebasicearningspershareiscalculatedbydividingtheprofit/lossfortheyearat-tributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of ordinary sharesoutstandingduringthefinancialyear.

In calculating the diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of shares is adjusted by the effect of the conversion into shares of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. Comptel has share options, which have a diluting effect, when the exercise price of the share options is lower than the fair value of the share. The fair valueof theshare isbasedon theaveragepriceof thesharesduring thefinancialperiod. In 2014 and 2014, the options did not have a material dilutive effect on earnings per share.

ALLOCATION OF GOODWILLGoodwill has been allocated to two different product business units which form separate cash generating units. These product business units do not relate directly togeographicsegments reportedbyComptel.Futurecashflowscanbegeneratedfromallgeographicalmarketareas.Consequently,goodwillcannotbeallocatedtoaspecificgeographicalsegment.Goodwillhasbeenallocatedtotwocashgeneratingunits which are Inventory unit and Fastermind unit. The latter was formed as a result of the Xtract acquisition in 2012. EUR 653 thousand (EUR 653 thousand in 2014) of goodwill has been allocated to Inventory unit and EUR 1,993 thousand (EUR 1,993 thousand in 2014) to Fastermind unit.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF IMPAIRMENT TESTINGThe realisation of an impairment loss in the Inventory unit would require the long-term EBITDA level to be more than 134% lower than the management’s estimate at the end of reporting period or that the discount rate was over 105%.

The realisation of an impairment loss in the Intelligent Customer Interaction unit would require the long-term EBITDA level to be more than 22% lower than the man-agement’s estimate at the end of reporting period or that the discount rate was over 102%.

The aim of the new plan is to combine the objectives of the shareholders and the target group of employees in order to increase the value of the company, commit the target group to the company and to offer them a competitive reward plan based on long-term shareholding in the company.

TheMatchingSharePlanincludestwoperformanceperiods,bothbeginningon2May2012.Theperformanceperiodswillendon2May2015andon2May2016.Thepre-requisite for participation to the plan and the receipt of reward from the perfor-mance periods requires that a target person owns the company’s shares or acquires them up to a number pre-determined by the Board of Directors. Furthermore, the potential reward from the plan is tied to the validity of the target person’s employment or service or contractual relation.

Rewards from the Plan will be paid partly in the form of company’s shares and partly in cash in 2015 and 2016.

CURRENCY RISK

Comptel operates globally and is therefore exposed to currency risks arising fromvarious currency positions. In Comptel’s business operations the major currencies are EuroandUSDollar(USD).AnothersignificantcurrencyisUKPoundSterling(GBP).

Comptel hedges open foreign currency positions. The currency position is mon-itored on a 12-month rolling period twice a month. Comptel started to apply hedge accounting in accordance with IAS 39 from 1.10.2014. The changes in the fair value of thehedginginstumentsforthefinancialassetsandliabilitiesarerecognisedthroughprofitandlossaccounts.

The hedging instruments are forward contracts entered into with banks. Thehedging forward contract is denominated in the same currency as the underlying item resulting the value of the hedging instrument to change in the opposite way compared to the underlying item.

Annex C

Page 114: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

Outlook

We expect 2017 revenue to grow with double digit percentage and we expect comparable EBIT to be between 10-15% of net sales.

Characteristically a significant part of Comptel’s operating profit and net sales is generated in the second half of the year.

These statements for 2016 are based on the company's audited financial statements. The Auditor's Report was issued 16 February, 2017.

Juhani Hintikka, President and CEO:

Both Business Units’ net sales grew slightly in the year 2016. Also, both Business Unit’s profitability improved clearly in 2016.

We continued, as planned, to bring new solutions to the market and this can be seen in the distribution of the net sales. The important FulFillment solution net sales grew over 20 per cent compared to previous year. In Intelligent Data business unit both our Fastermind solution as well as the Monetizer solution grew significantly during 2016. Fastermind solution grew 50 per cent and Monetizer 70 per cent compared to previous year. The net sales of traditional products declined and therefore overall growth of the company was modest. We expect in the future our new products growth to continue and impact more significantly the overall company growth.

The FWD cloud solution got traction in 2016 and at the end of the year we had 4 signed contracts with customers. In addition, we have several ongoing negotiations with new customers and expect the net sales to start showing in 2017 numbers.

Regionally, EMEA continued to grow with strong performance in 2016. In Europe we received a significant reference, when one of the biggest operator chose Comptel as a partner for developing jointly their future virtual solutions. In APAC, we experienced some continued delays with our customers’ decision making as well as increasing competition among vendors.

In Latin America, the year 2016 was challenging and we implemented changes in the operational structure to better match the market conditions. Especially the traditional solutions net sales declined in Latin America. We expect this situation to improve during 2017. During 2016 we increased our investment in the North American market and built a good foundation for future growth.

The company profitability developed positively and our EBIT for the year improved from 8.7 per cent to 11.0, despite significant investments into R&D and sales coverage. I’m especially pleased with the company’s profitability development.

The full year profit increased significantly, being EUR 11.7 million and earnings per share 0.11. We managed to complete the process concerning a large part of our outstanding withholding taxes in India. This had a significant impact on our net profit for the year.

During 2016, we secured 21 orders valued over EUR 1.0 million. In 2015, the comparable number was 25. We also won 9 new customers during 2016.

In the beginning of 2017 our sales pipeline is significantly higher than a year ago and we are confident that we will achieve double digit growth in 2017.”

For the full year 2016 financial income/expenses were EUR 0.9 million (-1.1). This includes EUR 1.1 million interest income that relates to withholding tax refund from India.

Corporate Governance

Comptel Corporation’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held on 6 April 2016. The AGM resolved the number of Board members to be five. Mr. Pertti Ervi, Mr. Hannu Vaajoensuu, Ms. Eriikka Söderström, and Mr. Antti Vasara were re-elected as members of the Board of Directors. Mr. Thomas Berlemann was elected as a new member of the Board of Directors.

The AGM appointed Ernst & Young Oy as the company’s auditor. Mr. Mikko Järventausta is acting as the principal auditor.

The AGM resolved that a dividend of EUR 0.03 per share was paid for the year 2015.

In its meeting held after the Annual General Meeting, the Board of Directors elected Mr. Pertti Ervi as chairman and Mr. Hannu Vaajoensuu as vice chairman.

The Board of Directors decided to establish an audit committee to deal with the preparation of matters relating to the company’s financial reporting and control. The Board of Directors elected Ms. Eriikka Söderström as the chairperson of the audit committee, and Mr. Pertti Ervi and Mr. Antti Vasara as the members of the audit committee. All the members of the audit committee are independent from the company and its significant shareholders.

Page 120: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

The AGM authorised the Board of Directors to decide on share issues amounting to a maximum of 21,400,000 new shares and on the repurchase or conveying of the company’s own shares up to a maximum number of 10,700,000 shares. The authorisations are valid until 30 June 2017. However, the authorisation to implement the company’s share-based incentive programs is valid five years from the AGM resolution.

A separate stock exchange release about the authorisations given and other decisions made by the Annual General Meeting was published on 6 April 2016.

Events after the Reporting Period

On the 9th of February Nokia announced its intention to acquire Comptel to advance its software strategy. Nokia made, recommended by the Comptel board, a cash tender offer for all the shares and option rights in Comptel.The offer price is EUR 3.04 in cash for each share in Comptel. A separate stock exchange release on this has been published on 9 February 2016.

Near-term Risks and Uncertainties

Comptel develops dynamic end-to-end solutions for leading operators globally in the telecom field. This requires Comptel to understand correctly the trends taking place in its business environment and the needs of its customers and resellers by each region. Failure to identify market conditions, address customers’ needs and develop its products in a timely way may significantly undermine the growth of Comptel’s business and its profitability.

Characteristics of Comptel’s field of industry are significant quarterly variations of net sales and profit, which are related to customers’ purchasing behaviour and the timing of major single deals.

Comptel’s business consists of deliveries of large productised IT systems, and the value of a single project may be several million euros. Therefore, the credit risk associated with a single project or an individual customer may be significant. Furthermore, some of Comptel’s customers operate in countries where the political or financial climate can be unstable which in part may increase credit risk.

Comptel operates globally, so it is exposed to risks arising from different currency positions. Exchange rate changes between the Euro, which is the company’s reporting currency, and the US Dollar, UK Pound Sterling and Malaysian Ringgit affect the company’s net sales, expenses and net profit.

The application process to prevent Comptel’s double taxation is still pending with the Ministry of Finance in Finland. However, the process between the states is very slow and the timing of change is hard to forecast. The interpretation of tax treaties may result in different views between the countries in question. This could mean that the double taxation will prevail. Comptel has also applications for return of withholding taxes in other countries but they are subject to local legal processes, which take time to get completed.

The risks and uncertainties of Comptel are described in more detail in the company’s financial statements and the Board of Directors’ report for 2016.

Business outlook and markets

Gartner forecasts operator investments will grow about 4 per cent during next few years. For Comptel the most important trend is that new investments go more to Cloud technology and software-based network solutions. This has been evidenced during the last year when we have seen that all leading operators have started building their next generation systems on software and cloud. First of these implementations have

Page 121: Continental Tender Offer Document and ... - Nokia Corporation

been commissioned into trial use beside traditional systems and proved that they yield considerable savings and ease the promotion of new services for the digital society. However, the most important impact is that software networks are essential for launching new concepts like Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G.

We assume that this development is getting traction during the next years and will improve Comptel’s position when the number of managed services and volume of accumulated data will increase. We believe Comptel’s ability to successfully manage hybrid networks where old and new systems are used in parallel is a strong differentiator.

Another important trend is the huge growth in number of services and the aim to make them more personal. Operators will face a problem when they are combining the wide scope of services from large multinational giants (like Facebook, Google and Apple) and new innovate service developers. This will require improvements in network capacity, service management, scalability and management of the huge amount of data to meet the expected level of customer experience.

We see that Comptel’s role within the new network concept is to build user services from available resources and create balance between user experience and resource costs. This function is now strongly integrating with the cloud-based business systems (like sales, customer relationships, charging) and result is that we need to take a role as provider of real-time end-to-end data and control function.

Outlook:

We expect 2017 revenue to grow with double digit percentage and we expect EBIT to be between 10-15%.

Characteristically a significant part of Comptel’s operating profit and net sales is generated in the second half of the year.

Board of Directors proposal for the Disposal of Profits

The Group parent company’s distributable equity on 31 December 2016 was EUR 13,002,143 (7,692,598)

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that no dividend be paid for the financial period ended on December 31st, 2016.

The Board of Directors proposes to the Annual General Meeting that the Annual General Meeting authorizes the Board of Directors to decide on a dividend payment of up to a maximum of EUR 0.04 per share in one tranche for the financial period ended on December 31st, 2016. The Board of Directors proposes that the authorization to decide on such dividend is conditional upon the Transaction Agreement entered into on 8 February 2017 by and between Nokia Corporation and Comptel Corporation (the “Transaction Agreement”) having been terminated for any reason other than consummation of said tender offer pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, meaning that the tender offer announced by Nokia Corporation on 9 February 2017 for all of the issued and outstanding shares and option rights in Comptel Corporation is unsuccessful.

The authorization to decide on payment of dividend shall be valid until the end of December 31st, 2017. Based on this authorization, the Board of Directors is entitled to decide on the dividend record date, dividend payment date and other matters required by the matter. When deciding on the possible payment of dividend, the Board of Directors shall assess the company's liquidity and financial position as required by the Companies Act.

3. Income tax

Income tax expense according to the statement of comprehensive income for the period was EUR 77 thousand (EUR 3,085 thousand).

In 2006, the Board of Adjustment of the Tax Office for Major Corporations refused to accept the crediting of taxes withheld at source in taxation of 2004 and 2005. The application process to prevent Comptel’s double taxation is still pending with the Ministry of Finance in Finland. However, the process between the states is very slow and the timing of a change is hard to forecast. The interpretation of tax treaties may result in different views between the countries in question. This could mean that the double taxation will prevail.

According to the Board of Adjustment’s decision currently in force, Comptel Corporation has expensed taxes withheld at source amounting to EUR -2,714 thousand in January – December (EUR 1,167 thousand).
