FIH Mobile Ltd. (2038.HK) plans to team up with HMD Global Oy to buy the smartphone assets under the Nokia trademark from Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) for US$350 million.

The unit of Taiwanese electronics assembler Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. (2317.TW) said Wednesday that the target assets to be acquired involve the designing, manufacturing and selling of phones that are sold under the brand name Nokia.

Of the total consideration, FIH Mobile will pay US$330 million while the remaining US$20 million is payable by HMD global, a company organized Finnish law.

As part of the deal, FIH Mobile will also buy Microsoft's smartphone-manufacturing facilities in Hanoi. About 4,500 employees will transfer to, or have the opportunity to join, FIH Mobile or HMD Global subject to the closure of the deal, Microsoft said in a separate statement.
