The class action asserts claims under Sections 14(e), 20A and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 arising from the 2014 attempted acquisition of Allergan by Valeant and its affiliates. The complaint alleges that certain Defendants traded on material non-public information regarding the proposed acquisition, and as a result, Class members that sold Allergan call options, purchased Allergan put options and/or sold Allergan equity forward contracts during the Class Period did so at prices that did not reflect the material nonpublic information known to Defendants. In this action, Plaintiff seeks an award of damages, and prejudgment interest, to Plaintiff and other Class members.
