Solteq Oyj (HEL:STQ1V) SOLTEQ PLC STOCK EXCHANGE BULLETIN ON JANUARY 5th, 2009

In order to ensure the favorable profit development in the extremely unstable economic situation of 2009, Solteq Plc has today begun co-operation negotiations with its employees. Through cutting down of personnel costs and fixed costs these negotiations aim to ensure cost effectiveness both in the short and long term. This is estimated to mean terminating 30 employments at the most and different structural arrangements during this year. These co-operation negotiations involve all the personnel in different localities of Solteq Plc. Co-operation procedures do not involve Solteq Plc's subsidiary OOO Solteq Russia in St. Petersburg.

Solteq Plc's earlier announced estimates concerning the turnover and result of 2008 remain unchanged, the Board of Directors will comment the financial prospects for 2009 as soon as the co-operation negotiations are concluded.
