CU BANCORP SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Former SEC Attorney Willie Briscoe Investigates Sale to PacWest Bancorp
Former United States Securities and Exchange Commission attorney Willie Briscoe is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of CU Bancorp (NasdaqCM: CUNB)
concerning the sale to PacWest Bancorp (NasdaqGS: PACW). Under the terms of the agreement, CU Bancorp shareholders will only
receive 0.5308 shares of PacWest common stock and $12.00 in cash for each share owned. The consideration is valued at $39.45 per
share, which is virtually no premium over the 52-week high and lower than at least one analyst’s estimated value of $43.00 per
share.
If you are an affected investor, and you want to learn more about the investigation or if you have information that you believe
would be helpful to our investigation of the fairness of the proposed transaction, contact Willie Briscoe at The Briscoe Law Firm,
PLLC via email at shareholders@thebriscoelawfirm.com or by
calling (888) 809-2750. There is no cost or fee to you.
The investigation centers on whether CU Bancorp’s Board of Directors is acting in the shareholders’ best interests, whether the
board considered alternatives to the acquisition, and whether the board has employed an adequate process to review and act on the
proposed transaction. Notably, at least one analyst with Yahoo! Finance believes the true inherent value of the stock could be as
high as $43.00.
