The Briscoe Law Firm, PLLC, founded by a former state prosecutor
and enforcement attorney for the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission, and the law firm of Cash Powers Taylor, LLP
are investigating potential legal claims against the Board of
Directors of Wainright Bank & Trust Co. (NASDAQ: WAIN) relating
to the proposed acquisition of Wainright by Eastern Bank
Corporation.
The agreement, which was announced on June 29, 2010, involves an
all-cash transaction valued at approximately $163 million in which
Wainright shareholders will receive $19.00 for each share of
Wainright common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding.
The merger is expected to close in the fourth quarter 2010, and
upon closing certain officers and directors of Wainright are
expected to remain with Eastern Bank. As of March 31, 2010,
Wainright had assets of approximately $1 billion. The investigation
relates to possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations
of state law by the Board of Directors of Wainright for approving
this transaction, whether the consideration to be received by
Wainright shareholders is fair, and whether Wainright’s Board of
Directors acted in the shareholders’ best interests.
