Elcoteq SE's three Finnish subsidiaries, Elcoteq Finland Oy, Elcoteq Lohja Oy
and Elcoteq Design Center Oy, have today filed for bankruptcy due to lack of
funding of those companies. The parent company Elcoteq SE domiciled in
Luxembourg has previously been accepted in the controlled management procedure
under Luxembourg laws. As a consequence of the revolving credit facility
lenders' continued enforcement actions, Elcoteq SE is no longer able to continue
the funding of the Finnish subsidiaries. Therefore, the Finnish subsidiaries are
not able to carry on their operations and have been forced to file for
bankruptcy. This affects approximately 100 persons in Finland. Elcoteq SE
continues the controlled management process in Luxembourg and business
development together with its key customers. Elcoteq employs approximately
6,800 people worldwide.
