The statement on Schedule 13D previously filed by Nokia Finance
International B.V., a private company with limited liability incorporated under
the laws of The Netherlands ("NFI"), and Nokia Corporation, a corporation
incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Finland ("Nokia"), with respect
to shares of Common Stock (the "Common Stock") of F5 Networks, Inc. (the
"Company") is hereby amended and supplemented. Except as amended and
supplemented hereby, the original statement on Schedule 13D remains in full
force and effect. NFI and Nokia are collectively referred to as the "Reporting
Persons."
ITEM 1. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
As described in the original statement on Schedule 13D, filed on July
9, 2001, the Investor's Rights Agreement entitled NFI to nominate one member to
the Company's Board of Directors. The Investor's Rights Agreement also provides
that as long as NFI holds five or more percent of the outstanding capital stock
of the Company, the Company will use its best efforts to cause and maintain the
election to the Board of Directors of a representative designated by NFI.
Pursuant to the Investor's Rights Agreement, NFI nominated Kenny Frerichs to
serve on the Board of Directors. Kenny Frerichs resigned from the Board of
Directors effective May 1, 2003.
The Warrant described in the original statement on Schedule 13D expired
ten business days after December 31, 2002.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION.
Except as set forth above, at the present time the Reporting Persons
have no plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (a) the
acquisition by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the
disposition of securities of the Company, (b) an extraordinary corporate
transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving the
Company or any of its subsidiaries, (c) a sale or transfer of a material amount
of assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (d) any change in the
present board of directors or management of the Company, including any plans or
proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing
vacancies on the board, (e) any material change in the present capitalization or
dividend policy of the Company, (f) any other material change in the Company's
business or corporate structure, (g) changes in the Company's charter, bylaws or
instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of the Company by any person, (h) a class of securities
of the issuer to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to
be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered
national securities association, (i) a class of equity securities of the Company
becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4)
of the Exchange Act or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
Each Reporting Person expects to evaluate on an ongoing basis the
Company's financial condition, business operations and prospects, market price
of the Common Stock, conditions in securities markets generally, general
economic and industry conditions and other factors. Accordingly, each Reporting
Person reserves the right to change its plans and intentions at any time, as it
deems appropriate. In particular, each Reporting Person may, at any time and
from time to time: acquire additional Common Stock or securities convertible or
exchangeable for Common Stock; dispose of shares of Common Stock; and/or enter
into privately negotiated derivative transactions with
institutional counterparties to hedge the market risk of some or all of its
positions in the Common Stock. Any such transactions may be effected at any time
and from time to time subject to any applicable limitations of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended. To the knowledge of each Reporting Person, each of the
persons listed on Schedule 1 hereto may make the same evaluation and reserves
the same rights.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
According to the Company's current report on Form 8-K filed on April
23, 2003, the total number of shares of the Company's Common Stock outstanding
as of March 31, 2003 was approximately 26,357,000 shares.
As of the date of the filing of this Statement, the Reporting Persons
may be deemed each to be the beneficial owner of 2,466,421 shares of Common
Stock for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, which represents
approximately 9.4% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of January 23,
2003.
The Reporting Persons have the sole power to vote or to direct the vote
or dispose or direct the disposition of 2,466,421 shares of Common Stock. To the
knowledge of the Reporting Persons, there are no shares of Common Stock which
are beneficially owned by any other person referred to in Schedule 1 hereto.
Except as set forth herein, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons,
neither the Reporting Persons nor any other person referred to in Schedule 1
hereto beneficially owns or has acquired or disposed of any shares of Common
Stock during the past 60 days.
ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.
Exhibit A Agreement of Joint Filing, dated July 9, 2001, by and between
--------- Nokia Finance International B.V. and Nokia Corporation (filed with
the statement on Schedule 13D filed on July 9, 2001).
