The investigation concerns whether Premier and its board of directors violated the federal securities laws and/or breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by failing to, among other things: (1) obtain the best possible consideration for Premier shareholders; (2) determine whether Peoples is underpaying for Premier; and (3) disclose all material information necessary for Premier shareholders to adequately assess and value the merger consideration. On behalf of Premier shareholders, Halper Sadeh LLP may seek increased consideration for shareholders, additional disclosures and information concerning the proposed transaction, or other relief and benefits.
