NEW YORK--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of Genoptix, Inc. (aGenoptixa or the aCompanya) (NasdaqGS: GXDX) for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with their conduct related to the sale of the Company to Novartis AG (NYSE: NVS) for an estimated $470 million. The proposed transaction offers Genoptix shareholders to only receive $25 in cash for each share of Genoptix common stock. According to Yahoo! Finance, at least one analyst has set a price target of $28 per share for Genoptix common stock. Further, the transaction is structured as a tender offer which may avoid a shareholder vote by Genoptix shareholders. Prior to this transaction, on December16, 2010, the Committee of Genoptix, in connection with its 2010 annual bonus compensation review, awarded 2010 performance bonuses of $363,375 to Dr.TinaS. Nova, Genoptixa™s President and Chief Executive Officer, $226,688 to Samuel D. Riccitelli, Genoptixa™s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, $136,875 to Douglas A. Schuling, Genoptixa™s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Offer, and $93,000 to Dr.ChristianV. Kuhlen, Genoptixa™s Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary.
