Halper Sadeh LLC, an investor rights law firm, is investigating whether the sale of Macatawa Bank Corporation (NASDAQ: MCBC) to Wintrust Financial Corporation is fair to Macatawa shareholders. Per the terms of the Proposed Transaction, each share of Macatawa common stock will be converted into the right to receive merger consideration paid in shares of Wintrust common stock based on Wintrust’s average trading price at closing determined in accordance with the merger agreement.

The investigation concerns whether Macatawa and its board of directors violated the federal securities laws and/or breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by failing to, among other things: (1) obtain the best possible consideration for Macatawa shareholders; (2) determine whether Wintrust is underpaying for Macatawa; and (3) disclose all material information necessary for Macatawa shareholders to adequately assess and value the merger consideration.

On behalf of Macatawa shareholders, Halper Sadeh LLC may seek increased consideration for shareholders, additional disclosures and information concerning the proposed transaction, or other relief and benefits. We would handle the action on a contingent fee basis, whereby you would not be responsible for out-of-pocket payment of our legal fees or expenses.
