STONESOFT CORPORATION: MCAFEE HAS ANNOUNCED THE FINAL RESULT OF THE SUBSEQUENT TENDER OFFER PERIOD

The subsequent offer period under the voluntary public tender offer by McAfee Suomi Funding LLC (the "Offeror"), an affiliate of McAfee Inc. and a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Intel Corporation, to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares and option rights in Stonesoft Oyj ("Stonesoft") that are not owned by Stonesoft or any of its subsidiaries (the "Tender Offer") commenced on 26 June 2013 and expired on 10 July 2013 (the "Subsequent Offer Period").

Pursuant to the press release of the Offeror published today with regard to the final result of the Subsequent Offer Period, the shares tendered during the Subsequent Offer Period represent approximately 2.67 per cent of all the shares and votes in Stonesoft. Together with the shares tendered during the actual offer period, all the shares tendered in the Tender Offer represent approximately 97.93 per cent of all the shares and votes in Stonesoft. No option rights were tendered during the Subsequent Offer Period. By using the option rights tendered during the actual offer period for the subscription of Stonesoft shares the Offeror has a possibility to increase its holding to approximately 98.00 per cent of all the shares and votes in Stonesoft.

Pursuant to the Offeror, the sale and purchase of the shares tendered during the Subsequent Offer Period will be executed no later than on the fifth (5th) Finnish banking day following the expiry of the Subsequent Offer Period on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. if permitted by the rules applicable to securities trading on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki. Settlement will be effected on or about the third (3rd) Finnish banking day following the execution of the above trades, i.e. on or about 22 July 2013.

As the Offeror's ownership in Stonesoft has exceeded nine-tenths (9/10) of the shares and voting rights in Stonesoft through the Tender Offer, the Offeror has initiated compulsory redemption proceedings for the remaining Stonesoft shares under the Finnish Companies Act.

The press release of the Offeror referred to above, is attached as Appendix 1 in its entirety to this stock exchange release.

According to the final result of the Subsequent Offer Period, the shares tendered during the Subsequent Offer Period represent approximately 2.67 per cent of all the shares and votes in Stonesoft. Together with the shares tendered during the actual offer period, all the shares tendered in the Tender Offer represent approximately 97.93 per cent of all the shares and votes in Stonesoft. No option rights were tendered during the Subsequent Offer Period. By using the option rights tendered during the actual offer period for the subscription of Stonesoft shares the Offeror has a possibility to increase its holding to approximately 98.00 per cent of all the shares and votes in Stonesoft.

The sale and purchase of the shares tendered during the Subsequent Offer Period will be executed no later than on the fifth (5th) Finnish banking day following the expiry of the Subsequent Offer Period on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. if permitted by the rules applicable to securities trading on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki. Settlement will be effected on or about the third (3rd) Finnish banking day following the execution of the above trades, i.e. on or about 22 July 2013 (the "Settlement Date").

The payment of the offer price for the shares tendered during the Subsequent Offer Period will be deposited on the Settlement Date into the bank account connected to the book-entry account of the shareholder or, in the case of nominee-registered shares, into the bank account specified in the acceptance form. If the bank account of a tendering shareholder is with a different banking institution than such holder's book-entry account, the offer price for the shares will be paid, in accordance with the schedule of money transactions between banking institutions, to the holder's bank account so that it is on the bank account of the shareholder approximately two (2) Finnish banking days following the Settlement Date, at the latest.

The Offeror's intention is to acquire all the shares and option rights in Stonesoft. As the Offeror's ownership in Stonesoft has exceeded nine-tenths (9/10) of the shares and voting rights in Stonesoft through the Tender Offer, the Offeror has initiated compulsory redemption proceedings for the remaining Stonesoft shares under the Finnish Companies Act.

The Offeror may purchase shares and option rights in Stonesoft also in public trading on NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd. or otherwise at a price not exceeding the offer price of EUR 4.50 per share and at a price not exceeding the offer price for the option rights as follows: EUR 4.20 for each 2008A option right, EUR 4.20 for each 2008B option right, EUR 4.20 for each 2008C option right, EUR 4.20 for each 2008D option right, EUR 3.08 for each 2012A option right, EUR 2.19 for each 2012B option right and EUR 2.19 for each 2012C option right.
