resolve to repurchase a maximum of 360 million Nokia shares by using funds in   
the unrestricted shareholders' equity. Repurchases will reduce funds available

other arrangements, to settle the Company's equity-based incentive plans, to be 
transferred for other purposes, or to be cancelled.

a) through a tender offer made to all the shareholders on equal terms; or       
b) through public trading and on such stock exchanges the rules of which allow  
the purchases. In this case the shares would be repurchased in another          
proportion than that of the current shareholders.                               

It is proposed that the authorization be effective until June 30, 2010 and the  
authorization is proposed to terminate the authorization resolved by the Annual 
General Meeting on May 8, 2008.
