PROPOSAL OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS CONCERNING THE ISSUE OF STOCK OPTIONS        

The Annual General Meeting decided to approve the Board of Directors' proposal  
on issuing stock options to the key personnel of the Teleste Group. The Company 
has a weighty financial reason for the issue of stock options, since the stock  
options are intended to form part of the incentive and commitment program for   
the key personnel. The purpose of the stock options is to encourage the key     
personnel to work on a long-term basis to increase shareholder value. The       
purpose of the stock options is also to commit the key personnel to the Company.

The maximum total number of stock options issued will be 840,000. The           
stock options entitle their owners to subscribe for a maximum total of          
840,000 shares in the Company.                                                  

The share subscription price will be based on the prevailing market             
price of the Teleste Corporation share on the Helsinki Stock Exchange in April  
2007, April 2008 and April 2009, a ten (10) per cent premium added to each.     

The share subscription period for stock options 2007A will be 1 April           
2010-30 April 2012, for stock options 2007B, 1 April 2011-30 April 2013 and for 
stock options 2007C, 1 April 2012-30 April 2014.                                

A share ownership plan, in which the Group's key personnel is obliged to acquire
the Company's shares with a proportion of the income gained from the stock      
options, will be incorporated to the stock options 2007. The manner, in which   
the share ownership plan will be executed, will be decided by the Board of      
Directors in connection with the decision to distribute stock options.
