DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Former United States Securities and Exchange Commission attorney Willie Briscoe and the securities litigation firm of Powers Taylor, LLP are investigating the sale of H.J. Heinz Company ("Heinz") (NYS: HNZ) to Berkshire Hathaway and 3G Capital for shareholders. Under the terms of the proposed deal valued at approximately $28 billion (including the assumption of debt), Heinz shareholders will receive $72.50 in cash for each share of Heinz stock owned.

The Heinz sale investigation centers on whether Heinz's shareholders are receiving adequate compensation for their shares in the proposed going private deal, whether the transaction undervalues Heinz's stock, and whether Heinz's board attempted to obtain the highest share price for all shareholders prior to agreeing to the deal. According to shareholder rights attorney Patrick Powers, "Based on the size of the deal, the proposed sale price and other factors, we believe this transaction may undervalue Heinz's stock. Our proposed lawsuit will seek to obtain the highest share price for all shareholders."
