The Lin Law Firm Investigates Potential Breaches of Fiduciary Duties In Connection With Proposed Acquisition of Par Pharmaceutical Companies Inc.

LOS ANGELES, July 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The Lin Law Firm, A Professional Law Corporation, is investigating potential breach of fiduciary duty claims against the Board of Directors of Par Pharmaceutical Companies Inc. ("Par Pharmaceutical" or the "Company") (NYSE: PRX) related to the proposed acquisition of the Company by TPG Capital for $50 per share.

This investigation concerns whether the Board of Directors of Par Pharmaceutical breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders by failing to adequately shop the Company and to obtain the highest price for its shareholders, and whether all material information to shareholders has been disclosed.  The Company has exceeded earnings expectations in three of the last four quarters, and its stock price reached as high as $42.58 on May 2, 2012.  In addition, the price being offered for Par Pharmaceutical shares in the proposed acquisition is low compared to recent deals for generic drug makers.
