CF Industries brings lawsuit to "compel Terra Industries to hold its annual meeting promptly"; exchange offer for TRA shares has expired, not being extended  (81.66 -0.46)
Co announces that it has commenced litigation to compel Terra Industries (TRA) to hold its annual meeting promptly. CF Industries also announced that its exchange offer for all of the outstanding shares of Terra has expired and is not being extended. "We believe that Terra is legally required to hold its annual meeting promptly. Under Maryland law, annual meetings must be held on an annual basis, and Terra's last annual meeting was nearly 16 months ago," said Stephen Wilson, chairman, president and CEO of CF Industries. "We look forward to Terra stockholders having the opportunity to show their support for our proposed business combination by voting for CF Industries' nominees at Terra's annual meeting. Our proposal provides an exchange ratio premium of more than 35%, as well as real and substantial synergies."
