The Law Office of Abe Shainberg Launches an Investigation into the Possible Breaches of Fiduciary Duty by the Board of Ultico...

The Law Office of Abe Shainberg is investigating the Board of Directors of Ulticom, Inc. (NasdaqGM:ULCM) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with their attempt to sell the Company to Platinum Equity, LLC. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, Ulticom will be acquired by an affiliate of Platinum Equity with Ulticom shareholders receiving $2.33 per share in cash, after payment of a special dividend in the amount of $5.74 per share in cash. The transaction values Ulticom stock at $8.07 per share. Shares held by Ulticom's controlling shareholder, Comverse Technology, Inc. ("Comverse"), will be purchased by Platinum Equity’s affiliate pursuant to a separate share purchase agreement immediately prior to the closing of the merger.

The investigation concerns whether the Ulticom Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Ulticom stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether Platinum Equity is underpaying for Ulticom shares. At least one analyst set a price target for Ulticom stock at $8.50 per share and the Company's stock has traded as high as $10.68 per share as recently as April 15, 2010.
