Pursuant to the Memorandum of Understanding, the Acquisition will be carried out through a public exchange offer by Nokia comprised of two offers, a French public exchange offer and a U.S. public exchange offer (the “U.S. Offer” and, together with the French Offer, the “Exchange Offer”). The Company offers to acquire all of the issued and outstanding Alcatel Lucent ordinary shares (each an “Alcatel Lucent Share”), Alcatel Lucent American Depositary Shares, each representing one Alcatel Lucent Share (each an “Alcatel Lucent ADS”), Alcatel Lucent bonds convertible into new Alcatel Lucent Shares or exchangeable for existing Alcatel Lucent Shares due on July 1, 2018 (each a “2018 OCEANE”), Alcatel Lucent bonds convertible into new Alcatel Lucent Shares or exchangeable for existing Alcatel Lucent Shares due on January 30, 2019 (each a “2019 OCEANE”) and Alcatel Lucent bonds convertible into new Alcatel Lucent Shares or exchangeable for existing Alcatel Lucent Shares due on January 30, 2020 (each a “2020 OCEANE” and all 2020 OCEANEs together with all 2018 OCEANEs and all 2019 OCEANEs, the “OCEANEs”, and the OCEANEs together with the Alcatel Lucent Shares and the Alcatel Lucent ADSs, the “Alcatel Lucent Securities”).

A.2 Information to be provided Not applicable. regarding consent by the issuer or person responsible for drawing up the Listing Prospectus for the use of intermediary financial organizations 8 Table of Contents Section B — Issuer B.1 Legal and commercial name Nokia The legal and commercial name of the Company is Nokia Oyj. Parallel legal and commercial names of the Company are, in English, Nokia Corporation, and, in Swedish, Nokia Abp. Alcatel Lucent The legal name of Alcatel Lucent is Alcatel Lucent. The commercial name of Alcatel Lucent is Alcatel-Lucent. B.2 Domicile/ Legal form/ Nokia Legislation/ Country of The domicile of Nokia is Helsinki, Finland. Nokia is a public limited liability company incorporated in Finland and incorporation operating under Finnish law. Alcatel Lucent Alcatel Lucent is a French société anonyme, established in 1898, originally as a listed company named Compagnie Générale d’Électricité. Alcatel Lucent is registered at the Nanterre Trade and Companies Registry under number 542 019 096. Alcatel Lucent is subject to all laws governing business corporations in France, specifically the provisions of the commercial code and the financial and monetary code. Alcatel Lucent’s principal office is located at 148/152 Route de la Reine 92100 Boulogne-Billancourt, France. B.3 Current operations and Nokia principal activities Nokia is currently focused on three business areas: network infrastructure software, hardware and services, which is offered through Nokia Networks; mapping and location intelligence, which is provided through HERE; and advanced technology development and licensing, which is pursued through Nokia Technologies. Through its three businesses, Nokia has a global presence with operations and research and development facilities in Europe, North America and Asia, sales in approximately 140 countries, and employs approximately 64 000 people. Nokia is also a major investor in research and development (“R&D”), with expenditure through its three businesses exceeding EUR 2.5 billion in 2014. Nokia Networks is a leading vendor in the mobile infrastructure market, providing a broad range of different products, from the hardware components of networks used by network operators to software solutions supporting the efficient operation of networks, as well as services to plan, optimize, implement, run and upgrade mobile operators’ networks. HERE is a leading provider of maps and location experiences across multiple screens and operating systems and is focused on producing the most accurate and fresh map content, available across multiple devices and operating systems. Nokia Technologies develops and licenses cutting-edge innovations that are powering the next revolution in computing and mobility. Nokia Technologies is a leading innovator of the core technologies enabling the Programmable World1, where everything and everyone will be connected. Nokia Technologies is expanding Nokia’s successful patent licensing program and licensing proprietary technologies to enable its customers to build better products. 1 Nokia’s vision of the future; a world where connectivity will expand massively, linking people as well as hundreds of billions of physical objects—from cars, home appliances and smartphones, to wearables, industrial equipment and health monitors. What distinguishes the Programmable World from the Internet of Things is the intelligence that is added to data to allow people to interpret and use it, rather than just capture it. 9 Table of Contents On August 3, 2015, Nokia announced an agreement to sell its HERE digital mapping and location services business to a consortium of leading automotive companies, comprising AUDI AG, BMW Group and Daimler AG (the “HERE transaction”). The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2016, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals. Upon closing of the HERE transaction, which does not affect the exchange ratio of the Exchange Offer, and assuming that the Exchange Offer has not yet been completed, Nokia will consist of two businesses: Nokia Networks and Nokia Technologies. It is currently expected that after the Exchange Offer, Nokia Networks’ business would be conducted through four business groups: Mobile Networks, Fixed Networks, Applications & Analytics and IP/Optical Networks. These business groups would provide an end-to-end portfolio of products, software and services to enable the Combined Company to deliver the next generation of leading networks solutions and services to customers. Alongside these, Nokia Technologies would continue to operate as a separate business group. Each business group would have strategic, operational and financial responsibility for its portfolio and would be fully accountable for meeting its targets. The four Networks business groups would have a common Integration and Transformation Office to drive synergies and to lead integration activities. The business group leaders would report directly to Nokia’s President and Chief Executive Officer: • Mobile Networks (MN) would include Nokia’s and Alcatel Lucent’s comprehensive Radio portfolios and most of their converged Core network portfolios including IMS/VoLTE and Subscriber Data Management, as well as the associated mobile networks-related Global Services business. This unit would also include Alcatel Lucent’s Microwave business and all of the Combined Company’s end-to- end Managed Services business. Through the combination of these assets, Mobile Networks would provide leading end-to-end mobile networks solutions for existing and new platforms, as well as a full suite of professional services and product-attached services; • Fixed Networks (FN) would comprise the current Alcatel Lucent Fixed Networks business, whose cutting-edge innovation and market position would be further supported through strong collaboration with the other business groups. This business group would provide copper and fiber access products and services to offer customers ultra-broadband end-to-end solutions to transform their networks, deploying fiber to the most economical point; • Applications & Analytics (A&A) would combine the Software and Data Analytics related operations of both companies. This comprehensive applications portfolio would include Customer Experience Management, OSS as distinct from network management such as service fulfilment and assurance, Policy and Charging, services, Cloud Stacks, management and orchestration, communication and collaboration, Security Solutions, network intelligence and analytics, device management and Internet of Things connectivity management platforms. CloudBand would also be housed in this business group, which would drive innovation to meet the needs of a convergent, Cloud-centric future; • IP/Optical Networks (ION) would combine the current Alcatel Lucent IP Routing, Optical Transport and IP video businesses, as well as the software defined networking (SDN) start-up, Nuage, plus Nokia’s IP partner and Packet Core portfolio. This business group would continue to drive Alcatel Lucent’s technology leadership, building large scale IP/Optical infrastructures for both service providers and, increasingly, web-scale and tech centric enterprise customers; • Nokia Technologies (TECH) would remain as a separate entity with a clear focus on licensing and the incubation of new technologies. Nokia Technologies would continue to have its own innovation, product development and go-to-market operations. 10
