Pursuant to the proposed transaction, announced on September 16, 2019 and valued at up to $1.95 billion, Alder shareholders will receive $18 in cash and a non-tradeable Contingent Value Right for each share of Alder common stock owned.  The Contingent Value Right entitles Alder shareholders to an additional $2 in cash for each share of Alder common stock owned pending the approval of eptinezumab by the European Medicines Agency.  The investigation focuses on whether Alder and its board of directors violated the federal securities laws and/or breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's shareholders by failing to conduct a fair process and whether and by how much the proposed transaction undervalues the Company.
