Bernstein Liebhard LLP is investigating whether the Board of Directors of Tower Bancorp, Inc. (“Tower” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: TOBC) breached its fiduciary duty to its shareholders in agreeing to sell Tower to Susquehanna Bancshares, Inc.
Under the terms of the agreement, Tower shareholders will receive either 3.4696 shares of Susquehanna stock or $28 in cash for each share they own. The investigation is focused on the potential unfairness of the price to Tower shareholders and the process by which the Tower Board of Directors considered and approved the transaction.
If you are interested in discussing your rights as a Tower shareholder and/or have information relating to the matter, please contact U. Seth Ottensoser at (877) 779-1414 or Ottensoser@bernlieb.com.
