on the second part,

AND

•

The beneficiary having complied with the Acceptance Process (the “Beneficiary”, and together with Nokia and the Company, the “Parties”),

on the third part,

RECITALS:

In connection with the Public Exchange Offers, Nokia has undertaken under certain conditions to propose a mechanism that would ensure the liquidity of certain Option Underlying Shares if the liquidity of the Company Shares is significantly reduced as a result of the completion of the Public Exchange Offers (as further described below). The terms and conditions of this liquidity mechanism are set forth in this agreement.

THEREFORE, IT HAS BEEN AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

1.	Acceptance of the Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement

The terms and conditions of this liquidity agreement (the “Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement”) shall be applicable to and binding on the Beneficiary, Nokia and the Company, provided that (i) the Beneficiary complies with the Acceptance Process at any time by the last day of the Initial Offering Period, (ii) Nokia reaches the Success Threshold following the Initial Offering Period and (iii) the resolutions required to implement the Public Exchange Offers are approved by Nokia’s shareholders.

2.	Definitions

The definitions of the terms contained in this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement are set forth in Appendix 1 to this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement.

3.	Scope of the Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement

If the Beneficiary has accepted the Stock Options Acceleration Agreement, this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement is applicable to any of the Stock Options granted to the Beneficiary pursuant to the plans listed in Appendix 2 and subject to the cashless exercise undertaking, provided that the Sale Price is lower than the sum of the Exercise Price of these Stock Options, the exercise commission and the trading fees applicable to the exercise of the Stock Options and sale transactions described in the Stock Options Acceleration Agreement.

If the Beneficiary has not accepted the Stock Options Acceleration Agreement, this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement is applicable to any of the vested Stock Options granted to the Beneficiary pursuant to the plans listed in Appendix 2 for which the sum of the Exercise Price, the exercise commission and the trading fees applicable to the exercise and sale of the Option Underlying Shares exceeds 90% of the market value of a Company Share on Euronext Paris at the closing of the last day of the Subsequent Offering Period.

4.	Reduced Liquidity of Company Shares

A reduced liquidity (a “Reduced Liquidity”) of the Company Shares held by the Beneficiary shall occur if at least one of these conditions applies:

•

The Company Shares are no longer listed on a regulated stock market within the meaning of article L. 421-1 of the French monetary and financial code (Code monétaire et financier);

•

Nokia directly or indirectly holds at least 85% of the Company Shares; or

•

the average daily volume of the Company Shares traded on Euronext Paris calculated on the last consecutive twenty (20) trading days preceding the relevant date falls below five million (5,000,000) Company Shares.

The Company shall notify to the Beneficiary and Nokia by email, as from the last day of the Subsequent Offering Period, the occurrence of any Reduced Liquidity of the Company Shares within 5 business days of such occurrence (the “Reduced Liquidity Notification”). The Reduced Liquidity Notification shall include an example of an Exchange Ratio calculation determined based on the assumption that the Option Underlying Shares Exchange occurred on the business day preceding the date of the Reduced Liquidity Notification, and shall detail the adjustments, if any, to be applied to the Exchange Ratio pursuant to this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement.

Unless a claim is made in accordance with the provisions of Article 7, the Exchange Ratio calculation and the adjustments (if any) as notified shall be final and binding except if an updated Reduced Liquidity Notification is made before the Option Underlying Shares Exchange Date, in accordance with Article 6.2 of this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement and the Appendix 3 hereto, in which case such updated Reduced Liquidity Notification will replace and supersede the previous Reduced Liquidity Notification.

5.	Option Underlying Shares Exchange and Cash Exchange

All the Options Underlying Shares resulting from the exercise of any Stock Option being within the scope of Article 3 above shall be automatically exchanged by Nokia for Nokia Shares (the “Option Underlying Shares Exchange”) on the fifth (5^th) business day following the exercise date of these relevant Stock Options (provided that the Beneficiary received a Reduced Liquidity Notification before the exercise of his/her Stock Options).

In the event the Beneficiary would exercise his/her Stock Options being within the scope of Article 3 above before having received a Reduced Liquidity Notification, he would not be entitled to benefit from any Exchange of his/her Option Underlying Shares.

The Exchange Ratio of the Option Underlying Shares transferred by the Beneficiary to Nokia pursuant to the Option Underlying Shares Exchange shall be determined by Nokia in accordance with the provisions of Article 6 below. In the event the application of the Exchange Ratio would entitle the Beneficiary to receive Nokia fractional rights, he/she would receive in cash (in EUR, rounded up to the closest cent; 0.5 cent shall be rounded up to 1 cent), as an indemnity for those fractional rights, the relevant fraction of the Nokia Share price as of the Option Underlying Shares Exchange Date.

Alternatively to the Option Underlying Shares Exchange, Nokia may choose to implement a payment in cash in respect of the Option Underlying Shares, in its sole discretion (the “Cash Exchange”). The Cash Exchange would be applicable under the same conditions and requirements as the Option Underlying Shares Exchange except that the consideration for the exchange would not be Nokia Shares but a cash consideration equal to the value of the Nokia Shares the Beneficiary would have been entitled to receive by exchanging his/her Option Underlying Shares for Nokia Shares according to the Exchange Ratio. Such Nokia Shares value shall be based on the market value of a Nokia Share on the NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. at the closing of the last trading day preceding the Cash Exchange.

The Company and Nokia will have the option to proceed to the payments relating to the Cash Exchange and to the fractional rights indemnification through the Beneficiary’s next payroll (where relevant and to the extent legally permitted) and in any case, as soon as administratively practicable, notwithstanding the 5-day delay allocated for the completion of the Option Underlying Shares Exchange.

6.	Exchange Ratio

6.1

Exchange Ratio without adjustment

Nokia shall deliver, for the Company Shares exchanged under Article 5 above, a number of new and/or existing (at Nokia’s sole discretion) Nokia Shares calculated as follows and then rounded down to the next inferior whole number of Nokia Shares:

NNS = Exchange Ratio x NCS


Where:		“NNS” means the total number of Nokia Shares (rounded down to the next inferior whole number) to be delivered to the Beneficiary in exchange for his/her Company Shares;

		“Exchange Ratio” means the number of Nokia Shares to be delivered for one Company Share in accordance with the terms of the Public Exchange Offers, i.e. 0.55; and

		“NCS” means the number of Company Shares to be exchanged under this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement.

Theoretical example of calculation of the number of Nokia Shares to be received in exchange of Company Shares pursuant to this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement

Assumption: Transfer of 200 Company Shares by the Beneficiary in January 2017 without any adjustment.


NNS	=	0.55	x	200

NNS	=	110

6.2

Adjusted Exchange Ratio

Upon certain financial transactions carried out by Nokia or the Company affecting the value of their shares, the Exchange Ratio will be adjusted as described in Appendix 3.

For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustment will be made to the Exchange Ratio in the event of issuance of new shares by the Company or Nokia in relation to or as a result of the acceleration mechanisms mentioned herein, the grant of Company shares in replacement of the 2014 stock options plans, the grant of Alcatel-Lucent performance shares in 2015 or the performance of this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement.

7.	Claims

Any claim of the Beneficiary with respect to the Exchange Ratio shall be delivered by registered letter (with acknowledgement of the receipt) from the Beneficiary to Nokia, with a copy addressed to the Company, within five (5) business days as from the date the Company sent the Reduced Liquidity Notification to the Beneficiary in accordance with Article 4. The reasons for any claim shall be detailed precisely in such claim.

Nokia and the Beneficiary shall agree on an Exchange Ratio within five (5) business days as from the receipt by Nokia of the Beneficiary’s notification letter. If, after such period, Nokia and the Beneficiary have not been able to reach an agreement, the procedure provided for in Article 8 below shall apply.

8.	Third-Party Arbitrator

In case Nokia and the Beneficiary disagree on the Exchange Ratio, any person jointly selected by the Parties within ten (10) business days following the delivery of a claim made in accordance with Article 7 or, failing to do so within such timeframe, any other person appointed by the president of the Paris Tribunal de Grande Instance on the application of the most diligent Party, acting as third-party arbitrator within the meaning of article 1592 of the French Civil Code (the “Third-Party Arbitrator”) shall determine the Exchange Ratio, within twenty (20) business days as from the date it receives a registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt pursuant to which it has been appointed jointly by Nokia and the Beneficiary or by the president of the Paris Tribunal de Grande Instance.

In case this request is sent by the Beneficiary, the latter undertakes to send on the same day a copy of such letter to Nokia and the Company.

For the purpose of the performance of the Third-Party Arbitrator’s assignment, the Company, Nokia and the Beneficiary undertake to provide it with any relevant information relating to the adjustment provided for in Article 6.2 of this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement, that would be necessary for the Third Party Arbitrator to undertake its mission.

The Third-Party Arbitrator may request any such relevant and necessary information from the Company, Nokia and the Beneficiary.

Nokia, the Company and the Beneficiary shall be informed of the Third-Party Arbitrator’s conclusions as promptly as possible after completion of Third-Party Arbitrator’s assignment and no later than on the last day of the above-mentioned 20 business day period.

In the event the Third-Party Arbitrator fails to determine the Exchange Ratio within twenty (20) business days following the notification of its appointment, another Third-Party Arbitrator shall be appointed in the conditions set forth in this Article 8 to determine the Exchange Ratio within twenty (20) business days following the

notification of its appointment and the previously appointed Third-Party Arbitrator shall be automatically revoked upon the appointment of the new Third-Party Arbitrator, and so on until a Third-Party Arbitrator effectively determines the Exchange Ratio.

Except in case of a manifest error (erreur manifeste), as interpreted by French courts, the Third-Party Arbitrator’s conclusions shall be final and binding, and therefore non-appealable, upon Nokia, the Company and the Beneficiary.

Any fees, charges and disbursements incurred for the purpose of the completion of the Third-Party Arbitrator’s assignment shall be borne by Nokia if the Third-Party Arbitrator gives right to the Beneficiary’s claim in full, and otherwise by the Beneficiary.

9.	Beneficiary’s undertakings

By complying with the Acceptance Process, the Beneficiary cumulatively undertakes vis-a-vis Nokia and the Company (except as provided for otherwise in writing by Nokia):

•

not to sell, transfer, convey, alienate, mortgage, pledge or encumber his/her Option Underlying Shares or to dispose of them other than in accordance with this Underwater Stock Options Liquidity Agreement, or to Nokia, between the date on which the Beneficiary receives a Reduced Liquidity Notification and until the Exchange;

•

to hold in pure registered form his/her Option Underlying Shares as long as they are held by the Beneficiary;

•

not to revoke the power of attorney referred to in Article 15 below; and

Appendix 3

Exchange Ratio Adjustments

1)	Merger

Merger of the Company

In case of a merger of the Company into another company (the “Company Merger”), the Option Underlying Shares Exchange and Cash Exchange will apply with respect to the shares of the absorbing entity received by the Beneficiary in exchange for Company Shares resulting from Stock Options which are within the scope of Article 3 above. The Exchange Ratio will be adjusted as follows:


Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	Exchange Ratio	x	1
Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	Exchange Ratio	x	Ratio_Merger

Theoretical example of calculation of the number of Nokia Shares to be received in exchange of the absorbing company shares in case of a Company Merger

Assumptions:

•

Ratio_Merger = 2 shares of the absorbing company for each Company Share

•

Transfer of 200 shares of the absorbing company by the Beneficiary in January 2017 after the Company Merger

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted = 0.55 x 1/2

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted = 0.275

The number of Nokia Shares to be received is: 200 x 0.275 = 55

Merger of Nokia

In case of a merger of Nokia into another company (the “Nokia Merger”), the Beneficiary will receive shares of the absorbing entity upon the Option Underlying Shares Exchange and will receive, in cash, the equivalent value of the absorbing entity shares pursuant to the Cash Exchange. The Exchange Ratio will be adjusted as follows:

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted = Exchange Ratio x Ratio_Merger

Theoretical example of calculation of the number of absorbing company shares to be received in exchange of Company Shares in case of a Nokia Merger

Assumptions:

•

Ratio_Merger = 2 shares of the absorbing company for each Nokia Share

•

Transfer of 200 Company Shares by the Beneficiary in January 2017 after the Nokia Merger


Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	0.55	x	2

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	1.1

The number of the absorbing company shares to be received is: 200 x 1.1 = 220

2)	Extraordinary distribution

Extraordinary distribution by Nokia

If Nokia carries out a distribution of a special dividend, as defined for purposes of Nokia’s then applicable stock option plans, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted in accordance with the then applicable stock option plans.

Extraordinary distribution by the Company

If the Company carries out a distribution of an amount higher than the Company’s previous year net consolidated profit including a distribution of shares of a spin-off entity, (the “Company Extraordinary Distribution”) after the end of the Public Exchange Offers period, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted as follows:


Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	(Exchange Ratio x P_Nokia) - ED_Alcatel
Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	P_Nokia


Where:		“Exchange Ratio_Adjusted” means the number of Nokia Shares to be delivered for one Company Share after adjustment;

		“P_Nokia” means the price of a Nokia Share on the day preceding the Company Extraordinary Distribution; and

		“ED_Alcatel” means the amount per share received by Company shareholder corresponding to the Company Extraordinary Distribution.

Such adjustment will only apply to the extent the Beneficiary (i) has received the relevant Company Extraordinary Distribution in respect of Option Underlying Shares resulting from Stock Options that are already exercised or (ii) has

benefitted from a modification of the relevant plan due to the Company Extraordinary Distribution such as the adjustment provided in case of distribution of retained earnings under article L.225-181 of the French Commercial Code.

Theoretical example of calculation of the number of Nokia Shares to be received in exchange of Company Shares in case of a Company Extraordinary Distribution

Assumptions:

•

Transfer of 200 Company Shares by the Beneficiary in January 2017

•

ED_Alcatel = €1/Company Share

•

P_Nokia = 8


Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	(0.55 x 8) - 1
Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	8

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted	=	0.425

The number of Nokia Shares to be received is: 200 x 0.425 = 85

3)	Other adjustments

In the event that any other transaction specifically listed in Article L. 225-181 of the French Commercial Code, or a stock split or a reverse stock split (i.e., share consolidation), is carried out by the Company, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted in order to allow the Beneficiary to obtain the same value in Nokia Shares pursuant to the Option Underlying Shares Exchange or in cash pursuant to the Cash Exchange as the Beneficiary would have obtained assuming that the said transactions had not been carried out.

In the event that (i) a capital increase by way of incorporation of reserves (as defined in Article L. 225-181 of the French Commercial Code), (ii) a capital increase with or without shareholders’ preferential subscription right issued, in each case, with a discount of more than 10% on the stock price (except (a) capital increases completed to finance an acquisition where Nokia uses shares as payment, at a premium to the prevailing share price of the target company in the transaction, and (b) capital increases where equity shares or other securities are issued, offered, exercised, allotted, appropriated, modified or granted to, or for the benefit of, employees or former employees, directors, non-executive directors or executives holding or formerly holding executive office or the personal service company of any such persons or their spouses or relatives, in each case, of Nokia or any of its subsidiaries or any associated company or to a trustee or nominee to be held for the benefit of any such person), or (iii) a stock split or a reverse stock split (i.e., share consolidation) is carried out by Nokia, the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted in order to allow the Beneficiary to obtain the same value in Nokia Shares pursuant to the Option Underlying Shares Exchange or in cash pursuant to the Cash Exchange as the Beneficiary would have obtained assuming the said transactions had not been carried out.

For example in case of share consolidation carried out by Nokia, the Exchange Ratio would be adjusted as follows:

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted

Exchange Ratio

Number of Nokia Shares composing the share capital after the consolidation

Number of Nokia Shares composing the share capital prior to the consolidation

Theoretical example of calculation of the number of Nokia Shares to be received in exchange of Company Shares in case of share consolidation carried out by Nokia

Assumptions:

•

Transfer of 200 Company Shares by the Beneficiary in January 2017

•

Share consolidation = 10 existing Nokia Shares become 1 new Nokia Share value

•

Number of shares before the consolidation = 3,678,181,540

•

Number of shares after the consolidation = 367,818,154

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted

0.55

(367,818,154 / 3,678,181,540)

Exchange Ratio_Adjusted

0.055

The number of Nokia Shares to be received is: 200 x 0.055 = 11

4)	Value of the Company Shares and Nokia Shares

For the calculation of any adjustment factor as described above, the value of the Company Shares or Nokia Shares at a specific date shall be equal to the weighted average of trading prices during the three trading days preceding such date. Failing this, the value shall be determined by an expert with an international reputation, designated by Nokia or the Company, as the case may be, which opinion shall be irrevocable.
