Stock Exchange Release
September 7, 2010 at 8.45 am (EET)


The Board of Directors of Elcoteq SE has decided to convene an Extraordinary
General Meeting (EGM) of shareholders to decide on actions enabling the
advancement with the equity raising project. The meeting will be held on October
12, 2010 in Luxembourg, at the premises of Elcoteq SE, 19, rue Eugène Ruppert,
L-2453 Luxembourg and it is scheduled to take place at 2:30 pm CET.

In order to allow the Company to raise new capital, the Board proposes to the
EGM to grant an authorization to the Board to issue new shares. It is also
proposed to extend the authorized capital period in order to follow the maturity
of the existing and planned new instruments issued by the Company.

Thus, the Board proposes that the authorized capital section of the Articles of
Association (articles 21 and 22) would have the following amendments:
  * have the authorization period starting on the day of the EGM for a period of
    5 years;
  * authorize the Board of Directors to issue new shares in deviation from the
    preferential subscription right of the shareholders up to an amount of EUR
    40,000,000.00;
  * authorize the Board of Directors to issue new shares in conformity with the
    preferential subscription right of the shareholders up to an amount of EUR
    41,824,336.00;


Furthermore, as a result of the K to A shares conversion which occurred in July
2010, some articles of the Articles of Association still include the reference
to the previous K shares which is no longer necessary and the Board proposes to
the EGM to amend the Articles of Association in relevant parts.

The Board also proposes that for practical reasons the administrative language
of the Company is changed from German into French. The English language would
remain as the official language of the Company.

Furthermore, the Board proposes statutory election and discharge.

The decision of this Extraordinary General Meeting shall be carried by the
qualified majority of two-third (2/3) of the votes cast of the shares present or
represented at the meeting, taking into account that at least half of the shares
need to be present or represented. However, the qualified majority is not
required for proposal regarding statutory election and discharge.
Should the quorum of half of the shareholders not be met, then a second
Extraordinary General Meeting may be convened. The second meeting shall validly
deliberate regardless of the proportion of the capital represented. At both
meetings, resolutions, in order to be adopted, must be carried by at least
two-thirds of the votes cast.

The invitation to the Extraordinary General Meeting of shareholders is appended
to this release.
