New York, NY, January 12, 2010 — Levi & Korsinsky is investigating the Board of Directors of K-Tron International, Inc. (“K-Tron” or the “Company”) (NasdaqGS: KTII) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with their attempt to sell the Company to Hillenbrand, Inc. (“Hillenbrand”) (NYSE: HI). Under the terms of the deal, K-Tron shareholders will receive $150.00 in cash for each share of K-Tron they own for a total transaction value of approximately $435 million.
The investigation concerns whether the K-Tron Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to K-Tron stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before entering into this transaction and whether Hillenbrand is underpaying for K-Tron shares, thus unlawfully harming K-Tron stockholders.
