A shareholder filed suit in the U.S. District Court for Maryland against Two Harbors and its directors, alleging the company disseminated an incomplete and misleading proxy statement for the proposed merger with CrossCountry (CCM). Plaintiff George Assad seeks a preliminary injunction to block the May 19 shareholder meeting, the solicitation of proxies and the closing of the merger; a hearing is scheduled for May 18. Two Harbors calls the allegations unfounded, says it has no additional disclosure obligation and points to higher cash consideration proposals and competing bids from UWM. » Mere på de.investing.com
