SAN DIEGO, Feb. 17, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Shareholders Foundation, Inc. announces that an investor, who currently holds shares of Hospira, Inc. (NYSE:HSP), filed a lawsuit in effort to stop the proposed takeover of Hospira, Inc. by Pfizer for $90 per share.

Investors, who purchased shares of Hospira, Inc. (NYSE:HSP) prior to February 5, 2015, and currently hold any of those (NYSE:HSP) shares, have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation, Inc. at mail@shareholdersfoundation.com or call +1 (858) 779 - 1554.

The plaintiff alleges that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties owed to (NYSE:HSP) stockholders by agreeing to sell Hospira, Inc. too cheaply via an unfair process to Pfizer Inc.

Those who currently hold Hospira, Inc. (NYSE:HSP) shares have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation, Inc. at mail@shareholdersfoundation.com or call +1 (858) 779 - 1554.
