The Law Office of Abe Shainberg is investigating the Board of Directors of Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation (“Smurfit-Stone” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SSCC) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with the sale of the Company to RockTenn (NYSE: RKT). Under the terms of the transaction, Smurfit-Stone shareholders will receive 0.30605 shares of RockTenn common stock and $17.50 in cash, for an aggregate value of $35 per Smurfit-Stone common stock. The transaction has a total value of approximately $3.5 billion.

The investigation concerns whether the Smurfit-Stone Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Smurfit-Stone stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether RockTenn is underpaying for Smurfit-Stone shares. Shareholders holding approximately 9% of Smurfit-Stone stock have announced their disappointment with the terms of the deal and their intention to vote against the merger. They believe the deal "substantially undervalues" Smurfit-Stone and point out that it appears that Smurfit-Stone did not run a sale process.
