RADNOR, PA / ACCESSWIRE / May 9, 2016 / The law firm of Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP has commenced an investigation of

On May 9, 2016, The Wall Street Journal reported that Renaud Laplanche, LendingClub's founder and Chief Executive Officer, had
"resigned Monday following a board investigation into what it called improper practices in the lending process." The article
further reported that "the board review found that the Company sold an investor $22 million in loans whose characteristics violated
the investor's 'express instructions.'" Three other senior managers were also terminated or resigned over the incident.
LendingClub further disclosed that its review also "discovered another matter unrelated to the sale of the loans, involving a
failure to inform the board's Risk Committee of personal interests held in a third party fund while the Company was contemplating
an investment in the same fund," and that the Company's regulatory filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission would be
delayed.
Following this news, shares of LendingClub stock declined over 25% during trading on Monday, May 9, 2016.
