NEW YORK, July 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Attorney Advertising -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Amylin" or the "Company") (NsadaqGS: AMLN) related to the proposed acquisition of the Company by Bristol-Myers Squibb Company. The transaction is valued at approximately $5.3 billion or $31 per share.

This investigation concerns whether the Board of Directors of Amylin breached their fiduciary duties to stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before agreeing to enter into the proposed transaction, and whether the Company has disclosed all material information to shareholders about the transaction.  Bristol said late Friday it would pay $31 a share to snatch up Amylin.  The offer represents a 9.9% premium to Amylin's closing price Friday of $28.20 a share.
