Are the Terms of the Transaction Fair?

Under the terms of the transaction, Hastings shareholders will receive only $3.00 in cash, for each share of Hastings stock they own. The investigation concerns possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of Hastings for not acting in the Company's shareholders' best interests in connection with the sale process as an entity owned or controlled by Weinshanker currently owns approximately 12% of Hastings common stock. The transaction may undervalue the Company as an analyst has set a $5.00 per share price target on Hastings stock and Hastings stock traded at $4.20 as recently as June 17, 2013.
