NEW YORK, June 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Levi &
Korsinsky is investigating the Board of Directors of Colonial

Apartment Communities Inc. ("Mid-America") (NYSE: MAA).

Under the terms of the transaction, Colonial shareholders will
receive 0.36 of a Mid-America share for each share of Colonial they
own, representing a value of approximately $24.47 per share. The investigation concerns
whether the Colonial Board of Directors breached their fiduciary
duties to stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company
before agreeing to enter into the transaction, and whether
Mid-America is underpaying for Colonial, thus unlawfully harming
Colonial shareholders. In particular, at least one analyst set a
price target for Colonial stock at $26.00 per share.
