When Will Payments Be Issued?

Final Approval Still Required

Why the Lawsuit Was Filed

Allegations and Denials

The class action accused Wheeler’s directors and affiliated funds of breaching fiduciary duties by engaging in transactions that allegedly diluted or depressed the value of the company’s common stock.

Wheeler and the named defendants deny all wrongdoing, but agreed to the settlement to sidestep the expense, uncertainty and delay of prolonged litigation — a compromise that closes one chapter while opening another for investors seeking recovery.
