$4 145 668 508   $415 271.61
 
* For purposes of calculating the filing fee only. This amount is based upon the market value of the securities to be acquired in the U.S. Offer (as defined below) and was calculated as the sum of (a) the product of (i) 589 280 298 Alcatel Lucent ordinary shares, nominal value EUR 0.05 per share, estimated to be held by U.S. holders and (ii) the average of the high and low sales prices of Alcatel Lucent ordinary shares reported on Euronext Paris on November 13, 2015 (converted into U.S. Dollars on the basis of an exchange rate of EUR 1.00 = $1.0722, which was the Federal Reserve Bank of New York noon buying rate on that date) and (b) the product of (i) 472 058 361 Alcatel Lucent American depositary shares estimated to be outstanding and the average of the high and low sales prices of Alcatel Lucent American depositary shares reported on the New York Stock Exchange on November 13, 2015.
** The amount of the filing fee, calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, equals $100.70 per $1 million of the value of the Alcatel Lucent ordinary shares subject to the U.S. Offer (including Alcatel Lucent ordinary shares underlying all of Alcatel Lucent ’s outstanding American depositary shares) proposed to be acquired.

The Schedule TO relates to Nokia’s offer to:

 

    all U.S. holders (within the meaning of Rule 14d-1(d) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) of outstanding ordinary shares, nominal value EUR 0.05 per share (the “Alcatel Lucent Shares”) of Alcatel Lucent, a French société anonyme (“Alcatel Lucent”),

 

    all holders of outstanding Alcatel Lucent American depositary shares, each representing one Alcatel Lucent Share (the “Alcatel Lucent ADSs”), wherever located, and

 

    all U.S. holders of outstanding (i) EUR 628 946 424.00 Alcatel Lucent bonds convertible into new Alcatel Lucent Shares or exchangeable for existing Alcatel Lucent Shares due on July 1, 2018 (the “2018 OCEANEs”), (ii) EUR 688 425 000.00 Alcatel Lucent bonds convertible into new Alcatel Lucent Shares or exchangeable for existing Alcatel Lucent Shares due on January 30, 2019 (the “2019 OCEANEs”) and (iii) EUR 460 289 979.90 Alcatel Lucent bonds convertible into new Alcatel Lucent Shares or exchangeable for existing Alcatel Lucent Shares due on January 30, 2020 (the “2020 OCEANEs” and, together with the 2018 OCEANEs and the 2019 OCEANEs, the “OCEANEs” and, together with the Alcatel Lucent Shares and the Alcatel Lucent ADSs, the “Alcatel Lucent Securities”) (the “U.S. Offer”).

Holders of Alcatel Lucent ADSs located outside of the United States may participate in the U.S. Offer only to the extent the local laws and regulations applicable to those holders permit them to participate in the U.S. Offer. Holders of Alcatel Lucent Securities who are restricted from participating in the U.S. Offer pursuant to the Sanctions (as defined in the Exchange Offer/Prospectus) may not participate in the U.S. Offer.

This offer is being made on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the exchange offer/prospectus, dated November 12, 2015 (the “Exchange Offer/Prospectus”) attached hereto as Exhibit (a)(4) and incorporated herein by reference, and the related Letter of Transmittal for Certificated Alcatel Lucent ADSs, Letter of Transmittal for Book-Entry Only Alcatel Lucent ADSs and Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, attached hereto as Exhibits (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii), respectively, and incorporated herein by reference. Concurrently with the U.S. Offer, Nokia is also making, on substantially similar terms and subject to the same conditions a French offer (the “French Offer” and, together with the U.S. Offer, the “Exchange Offer”) open to all holders of Alcatel Lucent Shares who are located in France. Holders of Alcatel Lucent Shares located outside of France may not participate in the French Offer except if, pursuant to the local laws and regulations applicable to those holders, they are permitted to participate in the French Offer. Together, the U.S. Offer and the French Offer are being made for all the outstanding Alcatel Lucent Shares, including Alcatel Lucent Shares represented by Alcatel Lucent ADSs and OCEANEs.
