SAN DIEGO and SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Robbins Arroyo LLP announces that it filed a class action lawsuit on April 1, 2015, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division (the "Court") on behalf of the shareholders of Aruba Networks, Inc. ("Aruba") (NASDAQGS: ARUN) against Aruba and its Board of Directors for, among other things, violations of sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder.
Aruba Is Accused of Disseminating a False and Misleading Proxy Statement
The complaint arises out of a March 2, 2015 press release announcing that Aruba had entered into a definitive merger agreement with Hewlett-Packard Company pursuant to which Aruba shareholders would receive $24.67 per share in cash (the "Proposed Transaction"). The complaint seeks injunctive relief on behalf of the named plaintiff and all other similarly situated shareholders of Aruba (the "Class"). The named plaintiff is represented by Robbins Arroyo LLP.
The complaint alleges that, in an attempt to secure shareholder approval of the Proposed Transaction, the defendants filed a materially false and misleading Definitive Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in violation of the Exchange Act. The omitted and/or misrepresented information is believed to be material to Aruba shareholders' ability to make an informed decision whether to approve the Proposed Transaction.
If you purchased or otherwise acquired Aruba stock prior to the announcement of the Proposed Transaction on March 2, 2015, and wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than sixty days from April 2, 2015. If you wish to discuss this action or have any questions concerning this notice or your rights or interests, please contact attorney Darnell R. Donahue of Robbins Arroyo LLP at 800-350-6003, via the shareholder information form on our website, or by e-mail at info@robbinsarroyo.com. Any member of the Class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent Class member.
