The Law Firm of Weiss & Lurie Investigates Sonesta International Hotels Corporation

Weiss & Lurie, a national class action and shareholder rights law firm with offices in New York City and Los Angeles, is investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the Board of Directors of Sonesta International Hotels Corporation (“Sonesta”) (NASDAQ GLOBAL: SNSTA) arising from its agreement for the Company to be acquired by Sonesta Acquisition Corporation (“SAC”), an affiliate of Hospitality Properties Trust, for $31.00 per share.

Weiss & Lurie is investigating whether Sonesta’s Board acted in the best interests of its shareholders in approving the transaction and whether the Board adequately shopped the Company to obtain full consideration for Sonesta shareholders. In approving this deal, Sonesta’s Board may have breached its duties to shareholders by failing to maximize the value of their shares, such as by providing a level playing field to competing bidders or to consider alternative transactions, and by failing to make full and fair disclosure to shareholders about Sonesta’s business valuation and the conflict of interests, if any, of the Board members and its financial adviser on the deal.
