SHAREHOLDER ALERT: Brower Piven Commences An Investigation Into The Proposed Sale Of Whole Foods Market, Inc. And Encourages
Investors 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 Whole Foods Market, Inc. (NASDAQ: WFM)
(“Whole Foods” or the “Company”) relating to the proposed buyout of Whole Foods by Amazon.com, Inc.
Under the terms of the agreement, Whole Foods shareholders are anticipated to receive $42.00 in cash for each share of Whole
Foods common stock held. The firm’s investigation seeks to determine, among other things, whether the Company’s Board of Directors
