LOCAL AGENCY FURTHER INFORMATION

The responsibilities of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors represents and is accountable to the shareholders of the company. The Board's responsibilities are active and not passive and include the responsibility to regularly evaluate the strategic direction of the company, management policies and the effectiveness with which management implements its policies. The Board's responsibilities further include overseeing the structure and composition of the company's top management and monitoring legal compliance and the management of risks related to the company's operations. In doing so the Board may set out annual ranges and/or individual limits for capital expenditures, investments and divestitures and financial commitments not to be exceeded without Board approval.

The Board has the responsibility for appointing and discharging the Chief Executive Officer and the President and the other members of the Group Executive Board. Subject to the requirements of Finnish law, the independent directors of the Board will confirm the compensation and the employment conditions of the Chief Executive Officer and the President upon the recommendation of the Personnel Committee. The compensation and employment conditions of the other members of the Group Executive Board are approved by the Personnel Committee.

The basic responsibility of the members of the Board is to act in good faith and with due care so as to exercise their business judgment on an informed basis in what they reasonably and honestly believe to be the best interests of the company and its shareholders. In discharging that obligation, the directors must inform themselves of all relevant information reasonably available to them.

Election, composition and meetings of the Board of Directors

Pursuant to the articles of association, Nokia Corporation has a Board of Directors composed of a minimum of seven and a maximum of ten members. The members of the Board are elected for a term of one year at each Annual General Meeting, which convenes each March or April. Since the Annual General Meeting held on April 7, 2005, the Board has consisted of ten members. Nokia's CEO, Mr. Jorma Ollila, also serves as the Chairman of the Board. The other members of the Board are all non-executive and independent as defined in the Finnish rules and regulations. The Board convened nine times during 2004, three of the meetings were held in the form of a conference call, and the average ratio of attendance at the meetings was 100%. The non-executive directors meet without executive directors twice a year, or more often as they deem appropriate. Such sessions are presided over by the Vice Chairman of the Board or, in his absence, the most senior non-executive member of the Board. In addition, the independent directors meet separately at least annually. The Board and each committee also has the power to hire independent legal, financial or other advisors as it deems necessary.

The Board elects a Chairman and a Vice Chairman from among its members for one term at a time. On April 7, 2005 the Board resolved that Mr. Jorma Ollila should continue to act as Chairman and that Mr. Paul J. Collins should continue to act as Vice Chairman. The Board also appoints the members and the chairmen for its committees from among its non-executive, independent members for one term at a time.

Under Finnish law, if the roles of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer are combined, the company must have a President. The responsibilities of the President are defined in the Finnish Companies Act and other relevant legislation along with any additional guidance and instructions given from time to time by the Board and the Chief Executive Officer. The responsibilities of the Chief Executive Officer are determined by the Board.

The Board and each of its committees conducts annual performance self-evaluations, the results of which are discussed in the committees, respectively, and in the full Board. The Corporate Governance Guidelines concerning the directors' responsibilities, the composition and selection of the Board, Board committees and certain other matters relating to corporate governance are available through the following link

MEMBERSHIP

3GPP: The Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) is a global body dedicated to developing 3G specifications. 3GPP is an initiative of standards organizations from Europe, Japan, the U.S., Korea, and China with 400 companies participating in the technical work. In 1997-98, Nokia was active in establishing 3GPP as the organization to develop global 3G standards based on Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) technology. Specifications for WCDMA radio access networks were rapidly established, and in 2000 Nokia promoted the transfer of Global System of Mobile Communications/ Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution (GSM/EDGE) standardization to 3GPP. Commercial WCDMA products on the market are based on 3GPP Release99. Standardization continues with Releases 4, 5 and 6.

3GPP2: 3GPP2 is an initiative of standardization organizations from the U.S., Korea, Japan, and China. There were 75 participating member companies as of February 2005. Nokia activities in 3GPP2 support operators that have selected cdma2000 as their preferred 3G radio interface. Nokia actively contributes to the technical specifications group for cdma2000 radio and network standards, as well as 3GPP2 organizational and steering meetings.

Radio Law. ARIB conducts studies and R&D, establishes standards, provides consultation services for radio spectrum coordination, cooperates with other overseas organizations and provides frequency change support services for the smooth introduction of digital terrestrial television broadcasting. These activities are conducted in cooperation with and/or with participation by telecommunication operators, broadcasters, radio equipment manufacturers and related organizations as well as under the support by MIC.

The CE-ATA Working Group: CE-ATA was launched in September 2004 to develop a storage interface tailored to the needs of small form factor disk drives in portable consumer electronics applications. The benefits of CE-ATA are many. From an industry perspective, small form factor disk drive suppliers can take advantage of a storage interface tailored to the needs of such devices, resulting in highly optimized disk drive designs. Host silicon providers and product integrators will also benefit from the improved integration that the tailored interface affords due to its low pin count, favorable voltages and efficient protocol. For consumers, a disk drive interface tailored to the needs of the handheld and portable consumer market segments could spur storage use in innovative new products and lead to products with a more efficient storage solution.

CELF: The CE Linux Forum is an industry group that is focused on the advancement of Linux as an open source platform for consumer electronics devices.

NOKIA: Nokia's hottest spot

India has been an unexpected success story for Nokia. And the happy times show no sign of waning

Monday, June 13, 2005

No other telecom equipment company had a more eventful year than Nokia. The Finnish vendor registered a huge 140 percent growth in its business in India, which catapulted its India operations to become Nokia's fifth largest market in the world. In the year prior to that, the India operations had ranked sixth; and in 2002 and 2001, ninth and tenth, respectively. This growth came from both the mobile handset and infrastructure segments.

Even though there was lot more competition in both the mobile phone segment last year, Nokia remained the undisputed leader. Besides its wide range of phones and the widespread business infrastructure that it has in India, its deepening commitment to the Indian market aided its 100 percent growth in the mobile phone business. Nokia's growing faith and commitment in India was reflected not just in its India-centric product strategy and marketing campaigns but also in its plan to invest in manufacturing in handset as well as infrastructure space.

In many ways, Nokia's success in India is a manifestation of the success of telecom here. The vendor was a key beneficiary of the tremendous growth that the mobile subscriber base witnessed past year and the huge investments that operators made in the expanding their networks.

V&D estimates CyberMedia Research

Highlights

India emerged as the fifth largest market for Nokia globally
Nokia India's revenue from GSM handsets in FY 2004–05 was Rs 46000 millions
Infrastructure business contributed Rs 27710 millions
Nokia announced plans to set up mobile handsets and infrastructure equipment manufacturing plant in India

No.1 Nokia India: Thinking local

Sanjeev Sharma’s focus on the Indian consumer has made Nokia India a billion-dollar organisation

Global corporations, particularly world leaders, are rarely open to localisation of their products and strategies. For most of them, the term 'glocal' is more a smart management term than a pointer to act local. For Nokia India, however, glocal is becoming more of a habit.

In its first experiment with localisation in 1998, Nokia believes it created a bond with the Indian consumer with tunes like Sare jahan se achcha in its 5110 model. In 2000, its first Hindi user interface in the 3210 model gave Nokia the confidence to target its product development efforts at the Hindi-speaking population. Next year, Nokia introduced the Hindi text messsaging facility in the 3610.

But last year, Nokia India became more Indian than ever before. It launched two models - 1100 and 1108 - that had been developed specifically for India, after intensive research on the Indian customer's specific needs. The phone gave an integrated torch, a sheath-covered keypad for dust protection and a slip-free grip.

The models were creations of Nokia's Mobile Entry business unit - a team created to focusexclusively on developing products for markets with high population and low penetration. India, apart from China, Indonesia and Africa, was one of the top-priority markets.

The strategy seems to be working. Nokia's first 'Made for India' model, the 1100, is the largest selling model in the Indian GSM handsets market. Some of its features, like the torchlight, have become standard in models like the 3112 CDMA handset. Nokia's marketshare has gone up from 58.2 per cent in July 2003 to 59.6 per cent in July 2004. The five largest selling handset models in the market are all Nokia's. Besides, the company today has a substantial share of both ends of the market. It has 77 per cent of the Rs 3,000-4,000 phone market and about 68 per cent of the over-Rs 15,000 phone market.

No. 2 Titan Industries Bhaskar Bhat, managing director

Beginning next year, non-Hindi speaking customers will also have little to complain against Nokia India. The company has prioritised software development in at least seven Indian languages, to begin with. The roll-outs will begin in 2005.

Next, of course, is manufacturing. "They have been evaluating manufacturing (in India) for a long time. They are committed to development of a robust manufacturing sector," says Sanjeev Sharma, MD, Nokia India. What he wouldn't say is how and when.

No. 3 Samsung India K.S.Kim, CEO

For the moment, the Mobile Manufacturers Association - of which Nokia India is a member - has hired KPMG to prepare a study on the environmental and regulatory factors necessary to manufacture handsets in India. The study has involved representatives from the IT ministry as well. Mobile manufacturers would prefer long-term policy stability if they take a decision to invest in manufacturing in India.

Nokia, of course, is evaluating its own options. Foremost, it prefers to set up its manufacturing facilities around major international airports. There are around 400 parts in a handset. The average capacity of a mobile handset plant is 20 million units. That's eight billion components per annum - a logistical nightmare in any part of the world. The more co-located vendors there are, the better it is.

There is no vendor interest as yet, but even the most pessimistic agree that manufacturing handsets in India will become a necessity for Nokia very soon. The domestic market has already crossed the 40-million-units mark and the grey market has shrunk from 90 per cent in 2002 to under 25 per cent today. And, for the 23-billion Nokia, India has become the sixth largest market. And the country delivers around $1 billion in annual revenues, in comparison with the largest, the US's $4 billion.

Speaking on the occasion, Rabbi Shergill said, "Music has been my passion since childhood and it brings out the real emotions in me. I enjoy giving people an enchanting experience with newer forms and fusions of music. It gives me great pleasure to join hands with Nokia Nseries and offer these songs exclusively to Nseries consumers." The mobile version of the album has a special foreword from Rabbi and also an individual introduction to each song by him.

In addition to Rabbi's 'Avengi Ja Nahi', the Nokia Nseries devices will also come packaged with 100 DRM compliant songs across genres ranging from popular film music to international artists.

Nokia Nseries My Music My Muse

As part of this unique music experience, Nokia Nseries also rolled out a first of its kind contest, titled Nokia Nseries My Music My Muse, targeted at young music enthusiasts in the country. The contest invites aspiring participants above 18 years of age to shoot a video using their mobile phones for Rabbi's lead track from the album 'Bilqis'. The theme is 'sharing inspirations' and each film has to be at most 20 seconds long. 30 short listed entries will be judged by Rabbi himself and footage from the best 5 entries will be edited to create a 3 minute online music video for the song. This will be first user generated online Indian music video.

According to Rabbi, "Bilqis is one of my favorite tracks from the new album. It revolves around various things that inspire an artist, which is why the theme of the contest is 'sharing inspirations'. I am glad that Nokia Nseries is offering such an exciting yet sensitive platform to music enthusiasts. It will also bring me closer to my fans. This is perhaps the only initiative of its kind that brings to the forefront the unique and passionate mix of technology & music."

Inform, Involve, Empower – Nokia's service mantra for emerging markets with Nokia Life

Tools

November 04, 2008

Timely and relevant information for smaller towns and rural areas directly to mobile phones

New Delhi, India (November 4, 2008) – Nokia today announced that it plans to launch Nokia Life Tools, a range of innovative Agriculture information and Education services targeted to non-urban consumers. Designed specifically for emerging markets, Nokia Life Tools helps overcome information constraints and provides services to this next generation of mobile users. Nokia plans to launch the service, beginning in

the first half of 2009 with the Nokia 2323 classic and the Nokia 2330 classic as the lead devices in India and expand across select countries in Asia and Africa later in 2009.

"Filling in the information gaps in agriculture and education with Nokia Life Tools, we strive to contribute towards empowering people with the right tools to help them make informed decisions in their daily lives," said Jawahar Kanjilal, Global Head of Emerging Market Services, Nokia. "Nokia Life Tools was developed to help bridge the digital divide in the emerging markets."

"Nokia is a global innovator with a strong pulse of local markets. Agriculture employs more than 60 percent of all workforce in India. This sector of the economy needs fresh inputs via technology for the sector to get to a 3 percent growth," Shiv Shivakumar, Vice President, Nokia India. "Education and English language, on the other hand, are springboards for a number of small town and rural youth to move into the employment market. Nokia, through services in Agriculture and Education, will fulfil these opportunities for the Indian population."

Nokia plans to conduct a limited scale pilot in India before the end of 2008. Reuters Market Light (RML) is the content service provider collaborating with Nokia for agriculture services in the pilot, where accurate and regular information on weather, prices and availability of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, and prevailing market prices for the produce are sent to the farmer. The information is customized to the farmer's location and selection of crops, and will be delivered directly to his Nokia mobile phone. By getting the latest information directly on their mobile phones, farmers can overcome uncertainty and get just the right information that they need to grow and sell their crops.

"Technology is changing the way farmers, their families and their surrounding communities are contributing to the economy, as well as benefiting from it. Reuters Market Light has already proven the value of customized and localized information to the farming community, with thousands of farmers having already made significant additional profits using RML," said Amit Mehra, Managing Director, Reuters Market Light. "Through our collaboration with Nokia, we hope to reach even more farmers so that they can make informed decisions that have a direct and positive impact on their productivity and yield."

The Education service of Nokia Life Tools aims to give students a decisive advantage by boosting their English language and local, national and international general knowledge. Language lessons, quizzes on English words and phrases, and the general knowledge information were designed – together with EnableM for the pilot – to give students an edge. In future, the Education service will also come with information on higher education and career guidance and tips, exam preparation, quizzes and access to exam results.

Astrology services and ringtone downloads, with content from OnMobile during the pilot phase, bring the fun element to Nokia Life Tools.

"Nokia Life Tools was developed in collaboration with the target users and the industry. The success of this initiative can be assured through regular consumer feedback to ensure that their needs are best met. More importantly, it will require a collaborative effort between Nokia, our operator partners, industry participants and information providers across the agriculture and education sectors as we connect the next billion mobile phone subscribers – many of whom will indeed hail from these developing regions," added Mr Kanjilal.

Nokia Life Tools services use an icon-based, graphically rich user interface that comes complete with tables and which can even display information simultaneously in two languages. Behind this rich interface, SMS is used to deliver the critical information to ensure that this service works wherever a mobile phone works, without the hassles of additional settings or the need for GPRS coverage.
Idea Cellular Limited is the first GSM operator in India to collaborate on Nokia Life Tools. Pradeep Shrivastava, Chief Marketing Officer, Idea Cellular Ltd says, "We at Idea, Aditya Birla Group have made significant strides in rural markets and have taken initiatives around rural telephony.We are delighted to collaborate with Nokia in this new service and enrich the life of the Indian rural consumer through these service-enabled handsets."

Nokia Life Tools will be available in local languages for the target audience. The pilot will be enabled on the Nokia 2600 classic and the Nokia 1680, and available in Marathi, Hindi and English.
