BALA CYNWYD, Pa.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Law office of Brodsky & Smith, LLC announces that it is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of Inspire Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (aInspirea or the aCompanya) (Nasdaq - ISPH) relating to the proposed acquisition by Merck & Co. (aMercka).

Under the terms of the transaction, Inspire shareholders would receive $5.00 in cash for each share of common stock they own. The proposed transaction has an approximate value of $430 million. The investigation concerns possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by the Board of Directors of Inspire by not acting in Inspire shareholders' best interests in connection with the sale process to Merck. The transaction may undervalue Inspire as Inspire stock traded at $8.40 as recently as December 31, 2010 and an analyst placed a $10.00 price target on the stock.
