NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Law Office of Abe Shainberg is investigating the Board of Directors of NYSE Euronext (NYSE: NYX) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the sale of the company to Deutsche Boerse AG (NasdaqGS: DB1). Under the terms of the proposed transaction, NYSE stockholders will receive 0.47 shares in the new company per share of NYSE Euronext stock they own.
