Business Wire
Kendall Law Group, a national securities firm led by a former
federal judge, is investigating Ulticom, Inc. (NASDAQ:ULCM) for
shareholders in connection with the proposed acquisition by
affiliates of Platinum Equity, LLC. The firm is investigating
whether Ulticom properly shopped the Company prior to entering into
the agreement. This possible breach of fiduciary duty may have kept
the Company from reaching a deal that would provide better value of
the Company. If you are a ULCM shareholder and would like
additional information about your rights, you are encouraged to
contact the Kendall Law Group at 877-744-3728 or by email at

On October 12, 2010, the companies announced that the companies
have entered into a definitive merger agreement under which Ulticom
would be acquired by Platinum Equity in a transaction expected to
close by the end of the fourth quarter. Under the terms of the
agreement, shareholders will receive a special dividend in the
amount of $5.74 in cash to be paid at the close of business on
November 24, 2010, as well as $2.33 in cash when the deal closes.
This $8.07 buyout represents a 5% premium over the closing price on
October 11, 2010. Based on historical stock prices as high as $9.48
on July 30, 2010, the firm believes the transaction significantly
undervalues the company. There is a separate purchase agreement for
Comverse Technology, a controlling shareholder of Ulticom, which
will occur immediately prior to the close of the merger and
deferred at the risk based on Ulticom’s financial performance post
closing.
Kendall Law Group was founded by former federal judge Joe
Kendall, includes a former United States Attorney, prosecutors and
securities lawyers who are experienced in complex securities
litigation. The firm has been counsel in numerous merger and
acquisition cases nationwide, including some of the largest
transactions in the United States.
