The definitive merger agreement is expected to close in the third quarter of 2012 and the transaction is valued at approximately $612 million.

The investigation centers on whether Hughes shareholders are receiving adequate compensation for their shares in the buyout, whether the transaction undervalues Hughes' stock, and whether Hughes' board attempted to obtain the highest share price for all shareholders prior to agreeing to the deal. "Due to the size of the deal and other factors, we want to ensure that shareholders are receiving a fair price for their Hughes shares. As such, we are prepared to initiate litigation to preserve the shareholders' rights," said shareholder rights attorney Willie Briscoe.
