The complaint alleges that, in an attempt to secure shareholder approval of the Proposed Acquisition, defendants filed a materially misleading Preliminary Proxy Statement, which omitted and/or misrepresented information that CSR shareholders would find material in making an informed decision as to whether or not to vote in favor of the Proposed Acquisition. The complaint further alleges that certain of the defendants breached, or aided and abetted the other defendants' breaches of their fiduciary duties.
