NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Notice is hereby given that a class action lawsuit is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana on behalf of Robert Collier, individually and on behalf of all other shareholders of BrightPoint, Inc. (“BrightPoint” or the “Company”) CELL, who held securities on or before July 2, 2012 and who continue holding the shares (the “Class Period”). The Class Action Complaint alleges that BrightPoint and certain of its officers and/or directors have violated Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

A copy of the Class Action Complaint filed in this action can be viewed on the firm's website at www.faruqilaw.com/CELL.

On July 2, 2012, BrightPoint and Ingram Micro Inc. (“Ingram”) IM announced that they had entered into a definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which Ingram would acquire BrightPoint. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, BrightPoint stockholders will receive $9.00 in cash for each share of BrightPoint they own. On July 19, 2012, BrightPoint issued a preliminary Proxy Statement pursuant to Section 14(a) (the “Proxy”) to solicit BrightPoint shareholders' vote at the special meeting to be held. The Class Action Complaint alleges that the Proxy fails to disclose material information rendering plaintiff and other public shareholders of BrightPoint unable to cast an informed vote on the Merger Agreement at the upcoming shareholder meeting.

Plaintiff is represented by Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a law firm with extensive experience in prosecuting class actions, and in particular, actions involving corporate fraud and wrongdoing. Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, was founded in 1995 and the firm maintains offices in New York City, Delaware, California, Florida and Pennsylvania.
