Nokia Ask Elop to Take a Reduction in his $25 Million Bonus, Claims He Needs it For His Divorce

The sale of Nokia to Microsoft stopped being  business transaction a couple stories back, and is now probably best classified as a soap opera. Apparently Nokia, in retaliation to the public blowback when the details  Elop’s contract were revealed (including his $25 mil bonus for selling the devices division) are asking him to take a reduced bonus. Elop on the other hand has stated that he can’t since he’ll be needing that money for his divorce settlement (I guess his wife has been hanging around the MNB comments section too much).

Either way this just adds even more confusion and drama to the whole story; read more about it here:
