Kendall Law Group Investigating Youbet.com, Inc. for Shareholders

Business Wire
Kendall Law Group, founded by a former federal judge, today
began an investigation on behalf of Youbet.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: UBET)
shareholders. The investigation concerns possible breaches of
fiduciary duties in the proposed acquisition of the Company by
Churchill Downs Incorporated.
On November 11, 2009, it was announced that Churchill will
acquire Youbet.com in a $126.8 million cash and stock transaction.
The agreement is subject to possible future adjustment to ensure
that the transaction does not require Churchill to issue more than
19.6% of its outstanding common stock prior to the transaction.
According to the agreement, shareholders will receive $0.97 in cash
and 0.0598 Churchill common stock for each share of Youbet.com
common stock owned, which is $2.84 value based on the closing price
of Churchill on the day before the announcement.
Since UBET shares were trading at $3.08 as recently as August
2009 and as high as $3.91 in July 2009, the firm is investigating
whether the consideration to be paid to shareholders is grossly
unfair, inadequate, and substantially below the fair or inherent
value of Youbet.com. The investigation also concerns whether the
directors and special committee members may have breached their
fiduciary duties by not acting in the shareholders’ best interests
in connection with the sale process.
If you are a current holder of UBET stock and would like
additional information concerning this proposed transaction,
including your shareholder rights, contact Hamilton Lindley at
877-744-3728 or by email at hlindley@kendalllawgroup.com.
