WASHINGTON, Sept. 11, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Finkelstein Thompson LLP is investigating potential claims on behalf of shareholders of Odyssey Re Holdings Corp. ("Odyssey" or the "Company") (NYSE:ORH) arising from the unsolicited proposal of Fairfax Holdings Limited ("Fairfax"), the Company's majority shareholder, to buy the Company's remaining outstanding shares for $60 per share in cash.
The investigation is focused on the potential unfairness of the proposed merger price and of the process by which Odyssey's Board of Directors is addressing the proposal, particularly in light of the fact that Fairfax currently holds more than 70% the Company's shares of common stock.
