Robbins Umeda LLP Announces an Investigation of the Acquisition of Boots & Coots, Inc. by Halliburton Co.

Robbins Umeda LLP has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of Boots & Coots, Inc. ("Boots & Coots") (NYSE Amex: WEL) in connection with their actions in causing Boots & Coots to enter into a definitive merger agreement with Halliburton Co. ("Halliburton") (NYSE: HAL). If the transaction is approved, Boots & Coots shareholders will receive $3.00 per share, comprised of $1.73 in cash and $1.27 in Halliburton common stock (together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares) for each share of Boots & Coots common stock they own. The companies expect that the transaction will close during the summer of 2010.

Robbins Umeda LLP's investigation concerns whether Boots & Coots' Board of Director's acceptance and recommendation of Halliburton's offer was pursuant to a fair process and designed to secure the best possible price for all of Boots & Coots' shareholders.
