Investigation Overview
October 18, 2013 (Shareholders Foundation) - An investigation on behalf of investors, who currently hold shares of Mac-Gray Corporation (NYSE:TUC) shares, was announced concerning whether the takeover of Mac-Gray Corporation by CSC ServiceWorks, Inc. for $21.25 per share is unfair to NYSE:TUC stockholders.
The investigation by a law firm concerns whether certain officers and directors of Mac-Gray Corporation breached their fiduciary duties owed to NYSE:TUC investors in connection with the proposed acquisition.
