(“Dynegy”) (NYSE:DYN) common stock in connection with the proposed acquisition of Dynegy by Vistra Energy Corp. (“Vistra Energy”) announced on October 30, 2017 (the “Complaint”).  The Complaint, which alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against Dynegy, its Board of Directors (the “Board”), and Vistra Energy, is captioned Paskowitz v. Dynegy Inc., Case No. 4:18-cv-00027 (S.D. Tex.).
