NEW YORK, June 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- WeissLaw LLP
is investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other
violations of law by the Board of Directors of Diamond Resorts
International, Inc. ("DRII" or the "Company") in connection with
the proposed acquisition of the Company by affiliates of Apollo
Global Management (the "Affiliates"). On June 29, 2016, the Company announced it had
reached a definitive agreement for the Affiliates to acquire all
outstanding shares of DRII in a transaction valued at approximately
$2.2 billion. Under the terms
of the agreement, DRII shareholders will receive $30.25 in cash for each DRII share they
own.
WeissLaw is investigating whether DRII's Board acted to maximize
shareholder value prior to entering into the agreement.
Notably, at least one analyst set a target price of $35.00 per share, or approximately $5.00 above the office price.
Given these facts, WeissLaw is investigating whether DRII's
Board acted in the best interests of DRII's public shareholders to
maximize shareholder value prior to entering into the
agreement. If you own DRII shares and would like more
information about your rights or our investigation, or if you have
information to share with us, please contact Joshua Rubin by telephone at
(888) 593-4771 or by email at
