Under the terms of the transaction, Furiex shareholders will receive only $95.00 in cash and a Contingent Value Right of up to $30.00 in cash, that may be payable based upon the FDA status of eluxadoline, for each share of Furiex stock they own.

The transaction may undervalue Furiex and is below the premium paid in comparable transactions. For example, Furiex stock traded at $113.55 on February 5, 2014 and an analyst has set a $140.00 per share price target on Furiex.
