The investigation concerns whether the Electro Rent directors are breaching their fiduciary duties by failing to adequately maximize shareholder value. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, Electro Rent shareholders will be entitled to receive $13.12 in cash for each share of Electro Rent common stock held.
However, the merger price is below an analyst's recent target price of $15.00 per share.
