ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING RIGHT OF REDEMPTION IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FINNISH
COMPANIES ACT

SysOpen  Digia  Plc's  (SysOpen  Digia)  holding  has  increased  to  a  total  of
11,951,852 shares in Sentera Plc (Sentera), which represent approximately 90,97  %
of all shares and  the  votes  of  Sentera  (excluding  the  own  shares  held  by
Sentera).

SysOpen Digia is therefore entitled to redeem  the  remaining  shares  in  Sentera
pursuant to Chapter 14, Section 19, of the  Finnish  Companies  Act,  and  SysOpen
Digia shall begin procedures pursuant to  the  Finnish  Companies  Act  to  redeem
shares in Sentera held by other shareholders than  SysOpen  Digia.  SysOpen  Digia
will notify on the procedure in more detail later.

SysOpen Digia  will  offer  a  consideration  of  3.20  euros  per  share  in  the
redemption process pursuant to  the  Finnish  Companies  Act.  This  consideration
equals to the highest price paid by SysOpen Digia for the shares in Sentera.

Sentera´s shareholders considering the sale of shares to SysOpen Digia in the
redemption procedure are asked to accept the Mandatory Offer pursuant to the
Finnish Securities Market Act, which will be published on or around 19 June 2006.
The offer period is expected to begin on or around 21 June 2006.

SysOpen Digia's intention is that Sentera will apply for the delisting of the
Sentera shares when the ownership of all shares in Sentera has been transferred
to SysOpen Digia. SysOpen Digia expects this to take place during the early
autumn 2006.
