The investigation focuses on possible breaches of fiduciary duty and violations of federal securities laws, in particular whether FHN’s board of directors has disclosed sufficient information in the Company’s public filings to permit FHN shareholders to cast a fully informed vote on the proposed acquisition, and whether the proposed acquisition is in the best interest of FHN shareholders.
