According to Finnish law, a shareholder must be recorded on the Register of Shareholders of the Company ten days prior to the Meeting, i.e. on the Finnish Record Date of April 23, 2007, in order to be entitled to vote at the Meeting.

Yes. If you are a record holder of the Company’s ADSs as of the close of business on April 20, 2007, and you have provided your voting instructions to the Depositary as instructed in this proxy booklet, you will be automatically recorded on the Register on a temporary basis.

Are there any other requirements in connection with the Finnish Record Date?

No. Being a record holder of the Company’s ADSs as of the close of business on April 20, 2007 and providing voting instructions to the Depositary by the Voting Deadline automatically ensures that the ADR Holder will be temporarily recorded on the Register of Shareholders of the Company on the Finnish Record Date of April 23, 2007.

What is the temporary recording of the Deposited Securities on the Company’s Register of Shareholders and why is it required?

As mentioned above, only shareholders registered on the Register of Shareholders of the Company on the Finnish Record Date of April 23, 2007, may vote at the Meeting. As an ADR Holder, in the normal course, your Deposited Securities are registered on the Register of Shareholders of the Company in the name of Citibank’s local custodian.  For you to vote at the Meeting, the Deposited Securities underlying your ADSs must be temporarily re-recorded from Citibank’s local custodian’s name to your name on the Register of Shareholders of the Company as of the Finnish Record Date. This is done temporarily for the purpose of voting at the Meeting only.

What happens if the Internet Voting Instructions, the Telephone Voting Instructions or the Voting Card are incompletely executed? What must the Internet Voting Instructions, the Telephone Voting Instructions or the Voting Card contain in order to be completely executed?

If you do not provide all the information requested in the Internet Voting Instructions, the Telephone Voting Instructions, or the Voting Card, your votes will not be counted.

The following information (included in your Internet Voting Instructions, Telephone Voting Instructions or on your Voting Card) is required for the votes to be counted:

·                                          Signature (only applicable for written instructions);

·                                          Address;

·                                          Number of Deposited Shares held; and

·                                          Account number.

The address and account number must be provided for the “beneficial owner”— the person or corporate entity (ex. corporation, partnership, etc.) owning the beneficial interest in the ADR.

If a broker, custodian or other agent signs for his/her client (who is the beneficial owner of the ADSs), such agent must give the name and address for the beneficial owner (if an individual), and provide some evidence to the Depositary

5




that it has the full authority to vote on behalf of the beneficial owner of the ADSs.  Brokers, custodians or other agents fulfilling these requirements should also fill in the “Agent Authorization Form” provided to them separately.

How do I vote for the election of the members of the Board of Directors?

You can (i) vote “FOR” the election of all nominees, (ii) “WITHHOLD” your vote from all nominees; or (iii) WITHHOLD your vote from certain nominees. In the event that you wish to vote “FOR” some but not all the nominees, simply mark the numbered box(es) corresponding to the nominee(s) for whom you intend to withhold your vote on the Voting Card.

Can voting instructions be changed?

Yes, voting instructions may be changed at any time prior to the Voting Deadline of 5:00 P.M. (New York City time) on April 16, 2007 by completing new Voting Instructions on the Internet Voting website, by giving new Telephone Voting Instructions at 1-800-652-Vote (8683) or by calling Citibank’s ADR Services at 1-877-NOKIA-ADR (1-877-665-4223) and requesting a new Voting Card and returning the new and completed Voting Card to the Depositary. Please note that the last instructions received by the Depositary (whether it be a new Voting Card, Internet Voting Instructions, or Telephone Voting Instructions) by the Voting Deadline will be the Voting Instructions followed by the Depositary.

Can custodians, brokers or other agents vote via the Citibank website?

No. Custodians, brokers or other agents must follow the standard practices provided by their agents and The Depository Trust Company.

What information is required from me to vote my ADSs?

Finnish law and regulations require at the minimum the following information from a beneficial owner:

·                                          Name;

·                                          Address;

·                                          Number of Deposited Securities held; and

·                                          Identification number (i.e. account number).

Please note that by voting your ADSs, you are authorizing your bank, broker, or nominee to disclose the above-mentioned information to the Depositary, the Company, and the Finnish Registrar for the purpose of temporarily recording your name on the Company’s Register of Shareholders. Without disclosure of this information, your votes will not be counted.

Is it possible to receive proxy materials over the Internet?

Yes. Nokia is capable of providing you with proxy materials in a timely as well as, convenient and cost-effective manner over the Internet.  Please see the enclosed leaflet “Delivery of Shareholder Documents via the Internet” with respect to instructions on receiving the documents over the Internet.

“Householding” of shareholder documents

In December 2000, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted a rule allowing companies to send a single set of shareholder documents, such as proxy materials, information statements or other disclosure documents to any household at which two or more ADR Holders reside. This process is commonly referred to as “householding”. The shareholder documents that are affected by the SEC rule are: Annual Reports, proxy materials, information statements or other disclosure documents.  The rule does not apply to the proxy card.  Each registered ADR holder will continue to receive a separate proxy card.

Householding will not only reduce the volume of duplicate information received at your household, but it will also help Nokia to reduce its operating expenses. For these reasons, Nokia is taking advantage of the rule.

6




A number of custodians, brokers and other agents with account holders who are Nokia ADR Holders will be “householding”, i.e. sending a single set of proxy materials to multiple ADR Holders sharing an address, unless contrary instructions have been received from an affected ADR Holder. Once you have received notice from your custodian, broker, other agent or the Company that they will be “householding” shareholder documents, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent.

This year, Nokia will be “householding”, i.e. sending a single set of proxy materials to multiple ADR Holders sharing an address who held Nokia ADRs on March 1, 2007, unless contrary instructions have been received from an affected ADR Holder.

Registered ADR Holder

If you are a registered ADR Holder, i.e. you do not hold your ADSs through a custodian, broker or other agent, and wish to receive a single set of shareholder documents at your household, you must do the following:

A.              If you have the same last or family name as the other ADR holder(s) at your address, you do not need to take any sort of action. Unless you notify us by May 3, 2007, your household will begin receiving a single set of our shareholder documents.

B.                If you have a different last or family name from the other ADR holder(s) at your address, you and the other ADR holder(s) must provide written consent to receive a single set of materials. Please include the registration account name for each holder, account number as well as signature for each holder. Your consent can be provided by written request and returning it with your proxy material to Nokia Proxy, C/O Citibank Shareholder Services, PO Box 43124, Providence RI 02940-5140.

Please be aware that your consent will remain in effect until you revoke it. You can revoke your consent at any time by contacting Citibank, N. A. and informing them of your request. This can be done by calling to the toll-free number, 1-877-NOKIA-ADR (1-877-665-4223) or by directing your written request to Nokia Proxy, C/O Citibank Shareholder Services, PO Box 43124, Providence RI 02940-5140. Your request to begin receiving your own set of shareholder documents will be effective within 30 days of your request.

ADR Holder holding his/her ADSs through a custodian, broker or other agent

If you hold your ADSs through a custodian, broker or other agent, please notify your custodian, broker or other agent by telephone or direct your written request to them in accordance with the instructions you have received from them. Your request to receive your own set of shareholder documents will be effective within 30 days of your request.

How can my household receive a single set of proxy materials in the future?

Registered ADR Holder

If you are a registered ADR Holder, i.e. you do not hold your ADSs through a custodian, broker or other agent, and have not already received a single set of proxy materials or other shareholder documents as described above, please call 1-877-NOKIA-ADR (1-877-665-4223) or direct your written request to Nokia Proxy, C/O Citibank Shareholder Services, PO Box 43124, Providence RI 02940-5140.  Your request to begin receiving your own set of shareholder documents will be effective within 30 days of your request.

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting resolve that the total amount of the subscription prices paid for new shares issued after the date of the Annual General Meeting, based on stock options under the Nokia Stock Option Plans 2001, 2003 and 2005, be recorded in the fund for invested non-restricted equity.

It is proposed that the authorization includes the right for the Board to resolve on all the terms and conditions of the issuance of shares and such special rights, including to whom shares or special rights may be issued as well as the consideration to be paid. The authorization thereby includes the right to deviate from the shareholders’ pre-emptive rights within the limits set by law.

 

It is proposed that the authorization be effective until June 30, 2010.

 

14. Authorization to the Board of Directors to resolve to repurchase Nokia shares

 

The Board proposes that the Annual General Meeting authorize the Board to resolve to repurchase a maximum of 380 000 000 Nokia shares by using funds in the unrestricted shareholders’ equity. Repurchases will reduce funds available for distribution of profits.

 

The shares may be repurchased in order to develop the capital structure of the Company, which includes carrying out the announced stock repurchase plan. In addition, the shares may be repurchased in order to finance or carry out acquisitions or other arrangements, to settle the Company’s equity-based incentive plans, to be transferred for other purposes, or to be cancelled.

 

The shares can be repurchased either

 

a)              through a tender offer made to all the shareholders on equal terms determined by the Board, in proportion to the shares held by the shareholders, and for an equal price determined by the Board; or

 

b)             through public trading and on such stock exchanges the rules of which allow companies to trade with their own shares. In this case the shares would be repurchased in another proportion than that of the current shareholders.

*Fees approved by the Annual General Meeting in 2006, 2005 and 2004, for the respective years.

The proposal includes an increase to the remuneration of the Vice Chairman of the Board and each Board member without any change to the remuneration of the Board Chairman or the annual additional fees of the Committee chairmen or Committee members.

The Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee proposes that in accordance with the past practice approximately 40% of the remuneration for 2007 be paid in Nokia shares purchased from the market.

Is it possible to vote on the nomination of members to the Board of Directors?

Yes. According to the Nokia’s Articles of Association, shareholders of the Company elect the directors at the Annual General Meeting. An ADR Holder may either cast a vote of support for the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee’s proposal on the number of directors under item 6, or abstain, and a vote of support for the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee’s proposal on the election of directors under item 7. It is also possible to withhold a vote from all or certain nominees proposed by the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee. ADR Holders cannot vote against the Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee’s proposal, as it is possible to make counter proposals and also cast a vote of support for such counter proposals only at the actual Meeting.

The Corporate Governance and Nomination Committee’s proposal under item 7 is on pages 14-15 of this proxy booklet.

Is it possible to vote on the auditor remuneration?

Yes. According to Nokia’s Articles of Association, shareholders of the Company shall resolve on the remuneration to be paid to the Company’s external auditor at the Annual General Meeting. The Board’s Audit Committee proposes for the Annual General Meeting’s approval that the external auditor, to be elected by the Annual General Meeting, be reimbursed according to the auditor’s invoice to the Company, and in accordance with the purchase policy approved by the Audit Committee. The Board’s Audit Committee oversees the qualifications and independence of the Company’s external auditor, including the adoption of pre-approval policy for the purchase of audit and non-audit services from the external auditor and overseeing compliance with such policy. Information on the Audit fees paid by Nokia Group to the external auditor for the financial years 2005 and 2006 is available in the 20-F Annual Report of the Company.

An ADR Holder may either cast a vote of support for the Audit Committee’s proposal on the remuneration to the auditor under item 8, or abstain. ADR Holders cannot vote against the Audit Committee’s proposal, as it is possible to make counter proposals and also cast a vote of support for such counter proposals only at the actual Meeting.

 

11




 

Is it possible to vote on the election of the Auditor?

Yes. According to Nokia’s Articles of Association, shareholders of the Company elect the external auditor at the Annual General Meeting for one fiscal year at a time. The Board’s Audit Committee proposes to the shareholders the re-election of the Company’s current auditor PricewaterhouseCoopers Oy for the fiscal year 2007 based on its evaluation of the auditor’s performance and independence during fiscal year 2006.

An ADR Holder may either cast a vote of support for the Audit Committee’s proposal on the election of the auditor under item 9, or abstain. ADR Holders cannot vote against the Audit Committee’s proposal, as it is possible to make counter proposals and also cast a vote of support for such counter proposals only at the actual Meeting.

Why does the Board of Directors propose to grant stock options to personnel of Nokia under item 10?

Nokia competes for talented people on a global basis and for this purpose needs competitive incentive programs. The proposed stock option plan is part of Nokia’s Equity Program 2007 approved by the Board of Directors, which also includes performance shares and restricted shares. Due to the above, the Board brings this proposal on issuance of stock options before the Annual General Meeting, as previously in 2005.

Stock options would be used at a lesser degree compared to previous years. The Board of Directors proposes that selected personnel of Nokia Group be granted a total maximum of 20 million stock options during a four year period 2007-2010. Nokia Stock Option Plan 2005 approved by the Annual General Meeting 2005 covered a total maximum of 25 million stock options granted during a two year period 2005-2006.

More information on Nokia’s equity programs is available in the 20-F Annual Report of the Company.

Why does the Board of Directors propose to reduce the share issue premium under item 11?

Significant amount of funds have accrued in Nokia’s share issue premium as pursuant to the former Finnish Companies Act, the amount of subscription price for a newly issued share exceeding its nominal value was to be recorded in the share issue premium. Pursuant to the new Finnish Companies Act, the recording practice has changed and the share issue premium will no longer accrue. The funds in the share issue premium constitute restricted shareholders equity, the use of which is limited. The Nokia Board proposed that the share issue premium be reduced and the funds be transferred to the unrestricted shareholders equity, which would lead to a more flexible capital structure enabling more efficient use of funds (including distribution of funds to the shareholders).

What does the proposal regarding the recording of the subscription prices for shares issued based on stock options under item 12 mean?

This is a matter of technicality. With this proposal the Board proposes to complement the resolutions of the Annual General Meetings in 2001, 2003 and 2005 to issue stock options to provide that the subscription prices paid for new shares issued after the date of the Annual General Meeting based on stock options under the Nokia Stock Option Plans 2001, 2003 and 2005 be recorded in the fund for invested non-restricted equity. The said resolutions did not include a provision on the recording as the recording practice was set by law. According to this practice, the amount of the subscription price for a newly issued share exceeding the nominal value of a share was recorded in the share issue premium.

Pursuant to the new Finnish Companies Act, the share issue premium no longer accrues, and the issuance resolution may include a provision to record the subscription price partly or in total in the fund for invested non-restricted equity. The proposed recording in unrestricted shareholders’ equity would lead to a more flexible capital structure and enable more efficient use of funds of the Company.

Why does the Board request an authorization to issue shares and special rights entitling to shares and an authorization to repurchase own shares under items 13 and 14?

As a Finnish company Nokia may not, pursuant to mandatory Finnish law, issue shares and special rights entitling to shares or repurchase Nokia shares without a shareholders’ approval, or a shareholders’ authorization to the Board for these actions. The Nokia Board proposes that it be authorized to issue shares and said special rights as well as repurchase Nokia shares similarly to and for the same purposes as under the previous authorizations.

 

12




 

What does the proposed authorization to issue shares and special rights entitling to shares under item 13 mean?

Based on the authorization, the Board could issue shares through issuance of shares or special rights entitling to shares (including stock options). The Board could issue either new shares or shares held by the Company. In prior years, the Board has held separate authorizations for issuance of new shares (authorization to increase the share capital) and for disposal of shares held by the Company but these authorizations have now been combined based on the new Finnish Companies Act. The authorization could be used to finance or carry out acquisitions or other arrangements, to settle the Company’s equity-based incentive plans, or to other purposes resolved by the Board.

How were the authorizations to increase the share capital and to dispose own shares of the Company used in 2006?

Based on the authorization to dispose shares held by the Company, the Board disposed a total of 2 236 479 Nokia shares held by the Company as settlement under the Performance Share Plan 2004 and the Restricted Share Plan 2003. In 2006, the Board did not use the authorization to increase the share capital.

What does the proposed authorization to repurchase own shares under item 14 mean?

Related to the proposed authorization to repurchase shares, the Board has on January 25, 2007 announced its projection for a stock repurchase plan with up to EUR 4 billion for repurchases until March 31, 2008 as a means to develop Nokia’s capital structure. Nokia has had a stock repurchase plan also in previous years. In addition to developing Nokia’s capital structure, the authorization to repurchase shares may be also used to carry out financing or other arrangements. The proposed amount of authorization, 380 million shares, corresponds to less than 10 per cent of the shares of the Company.

How was the authorization to repurchase own shares used in 2006?

During 2006, the Board repurchased a total of 211 840 000 Nokia shares through public trading and used EUR 3 403 million for the repurchases. The shares were repurchased based on two separate authorizations: the authorization by the Annual General Meeting 2005 (valid until March 30, 2006) and the authorization by the Annual General Meeting 2006. Additional information on the share repurchases in 2006 is available in the 20-F Annual Report of the Company.

The Board has announced on January 25, 2007 that it intends to cancel majority of own shares held by the Company prior to the Annual General Meeting 2007.

What is item 15, which pertains to other matters at the Annual General Meeting, in the voting card?

Under Finnish law, Nokia’s Notice of Annual General Meeting must include an agenda setting out the matters to be brought before the meeting. The agenda must include those matters, which, pursuant to Nokia’s Articles of Association and mandatory Finnish law, must be resolved at the Annual General Meeting, and any other matters under the authority of a shareholders’ meeting brought on the agenda by the Company’s shareholders. Matters not included in the agenda of the Annual General Meeting may not be resolved on at the Meeting.

The “other matters” referred to in the voting card under item 15 relate to procedural matters only, and may include such matters as the election of the chairman for the meeting and persons to scrutinize the minutes.

What does it mean, if an ADR Holder marks the box to give a discretionary proxy regarding item 15 of the Annual General Meeting?

If an ADR Holder has marked the relevant box and “other matters” are properly brought before the Meeting, the nominated representative of the Company will have a discretionary proxy to vote the Holder’s ADSs with respect to those “other matters”. The nominated representatives are Nokia’s legal counsels.

Why is it important to vote?

A resolution under many of the agenda items requires a qualified majority of the votes cast, as well as of the shares represented at the meeting. ADR Holders form a significant number of Nokia shares represented at the Meeting. Therefore, in order for the proposals to be approved, the Company encourages ADR Holders to vote under every item.

Are the proposals on the Agenda available in their entirety?

Yes. The proposals by the Nokia Board are available in their entirety on the Internet through http://www.citibank.com/adr and http://www.nokia.com/agm. Nokia’s Form 20-F Annual Report (including US GAAP reconciliation) is also available on Nokia’s website.
