NEW YORK--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities law firm, announces an investigation into the proposed acquisition of Kinetic Concepts, Inc. (NYSE: KCI) by a consortium of investors including Apax Partners, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and the Public Section Pension Investment Board for $68.50 per share in cash.

James Leininger, founder of KCE and chairman emeritus, who holds approx. 11% of KCIa™s shares has agreed to vote his shares in favor of the transaction. The investigation concerns, among other things, whether the consideration to be paid to KCI shareholders is unfair, inadequate, and substantially below the fair or inherent value of KCI. Indeed, analysts have projected that the true going forward inherent value of KCI is at least $70 per share. The investigation further concerns whether the board of directors of KCI may have breached their fiduciary duties by not acting in KCI shareholders' best interests in connection with the sale process of KCI.

If you own KCI common stock and you wish to discuss this matter with us, or have any questions concerning your rights and interests with regard to this matter, please contact
