Levi & Korsinsky is investigating the Board of Directors of Semitool, Inc. (“Semitool” or the “Company”) (NasdaqGS: SMTL) for possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law in connection with their attempt to sell the Company to Applied Materials, Inc. (NasdaqGS: AMAT). Under the terms of the transaction, Semitool shareholders will receive $11.00 in cash for each share of Semitool they own for a total transaction value of approximately $364 million.

The investigation concerns whether the Semitool Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Semitool shareholders given that (i) the offer price is only a 13% premium over the $9.73 price that Semitool shares traded at as recently as October 12, 2009; (ii) analysts set a mean price target of $12.00 for Semitool shares; and (iii) directors and executive officers of Semitool holding about 32% of the Company's outstanding common stock have agreed to support the deal.
