Nokia shareholders approve sale of mobile business to Microsoft

Nokia Leadership team members, Elop and Halbherr, attend the company's EGM in Helsinki By Ritsuko Ando and Jussi Rosendahl HELSINKI (Reuters) - Nokia shareholders approved the 5.4 billion euros ($7.4 billion) sale of the company's mobile phone business to Microsoft, deciding the deal's financial benefits outweighed any objections to the loss of a Finnish national asset. Investors holding more than 99 percent of Nokia voting rights supported the deal, according to a final tally at Tuesday's shareholders meeting in Helsinki. Nokia had in September agreed to sell its devices and services business and license its patents to Microsoft after failing to recover from a late start in smartphones. Pirkola had been a Nokia shareholder since the early 1980s, when he worked for the company for a few years.
