I contacted the law firm and they sent me the merger agreement, and it has a provision that management put in that says that if another company wants to make a higher offer it has to pay a penalty fee of $15 million. How is this fair? Shouldn't management want a bidding war? They obviously did this to protect the sweetheart deal they negotiated for themselves and don't care about shareholders. Count me in this lawsuit!

Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities and shareholder rights law firm, announces that it is investigating the acquisition of Market Leader Inc. by Truilia. Trulia, Inc. (NYSE: TRLA, “Trulia”), announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Market Leader, Inc. (NASDAQ: LEDR, “Market Leader”), for approximately $355 million, or an implied price of $11.33 per share (based on Trulia’s closing share price on Tuesday, May 7, 2013). Market Leader’s shareholders will receive $6.00 in cash and 0.1553 shares of Trulia’s common stock for each share of Market Leader common stock
The investigation concerns whether the board of directors of Market Leader breached their fiduciary duties by only dealing with Trulia and not engaging in a full and fair auction for the company as a result of potentially negotiating personal pay packages and other benefits for themselves to sell the company to Trulia. Indeed, the company has over $20 million of cash on its books accounting for just under $1 per share which will go to Trulia to pay down the costs of the acquisition.
