INVESTOR ALERT: Brower Piven Commences An Investigation Into The Proposed Sale Of Commercial Bancshares, Inc. And Encourages
Shareholders To Contact The Firm For Additional Information
The securities litigation law firm of Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation, has commenced an investigation into possible
breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of Commercial Bancshares, Inc. (Other OTC:
CMOH) (“Commercial Bancshares” or the “Company”) relating to the proposed buyout of Commercial Bancshares by First Defiance
Financial Corp.
Under the terms of the agreement, Commercial Bancshares shareholders may elect to receive either 1.1808 shares of First Defiance
common stock or cash in the amount of $51.00 in cash for each share of Commercial Bancshares common stock held. The firm’s
investigation seeks to determine, among other things, whether the Company’s Board of Directors failed to satisfy their duties to
shareholders, including whether the Board adequately pursued alternatives to the acquisition and whether the Board obtained the
best price possible for the Company’s shares of common stock.
