    Nov 2 (Reuters) - TechTeam Global (NASDAQ:TEAM), a provider of outsourcing and business process outsourcing services, said it agreed to be bought by Brazil's Stefanini International Holdings Ltd for $93.4 million in an all-cash deal that will expand the private company's international presence.

    Stefanini, through a U.S. unit, will purchase all outstanding TechTeam common shares for $8.35 per share, a 16.8 premium to the stock's Monday close.

    The deal will be structured as a two-step merger to expedite the process.
