_____________________
As of May 30, 2017, Nokia holds an additional USD 85 990 000 of the 6.50% Debentures due January 15, 2028 and USD 400 910 000 of the 6.45% Debentures due March 15, 2029, which are not reflected in the table above. Nokia is an affiliate of Alcatel Lucent and, as a result, in determining whether the holders of the required principal amount of ALU Notes have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, ALU Notes owned by Nokia have been disregarded. For additional information, see the Offer to Purchase under the section The Terms of the Tender Offers and Consent Solicitation-Notes Accepted for Purchase.
The Tender Offers will expire at 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on June 26, 2017 (the Expiration Date). Nokia reserves the right, subject to applicable law, at any time, for any reason, to extend the Expiration Date. Any such extension will be announced in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase.
ALU Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date (if any) will be accepted for purchase in full and none of the 2019 Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date (if any) will be accepted for purchase, as detailed in the Offer to Purchase. The Final Settlement Date in respect of any such ALU Notes is expected to be June 28, 2017.
Consent Solicitation
Concurrently with the Tender Offers, Alcatel Lucent solicited (the Consent Solicitation) consents (the Consents) from each holder of ALU Notes to certain proposed amendments (the Proposed Amendments) to the indenture governing the ALU Notes (the ALU Indenture). The Proposed Amendments will eliminate: (i) covenants in the ALU Indenture governing the ALU Notes with respect to (a) liens, (b) sale and leaseback transactions and (c) reports; and (ii) certain events of default with respect to the ALU Notes, other than certain events of default including the failure to pay principal of or premium, if any, on and interest on such ALU Notes, and bankruptcy.
As of the Early Tender Date, the Requisite Consents have been reached and the Supplemental Indenture has been executed. The Supplemental Indenture will become operative on the Final Settlement Date.
Consideration
Holders who validly tendered and have not validly withdrawn their Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Date will be eligible to receive the relevant Early Consideration. Holders who validly tender their Notes after the Early Tender Date, but at or prior to the Expiration Date will be eligible to receive the relevant Late Consideration. In addition to the relevant Early Consideration or Late Consideration (as applicable), Nokia will also pay any applicable Accrued Interest in relation to the Notes accepted for purchase.
The Early Consideration (assuming the Early Settlement Date is June 14, 2017) and the Late Consideration (assuming the Final Settlement Date is June 28, 2017) in respect of each se
