NPS PHARMACEUTICALS INVESTOR ALERT: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Announces the Investigation of NPS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NPSP) Over the Proposed Sale of the Company to Shire PLC


Juan E. Monteverde, a partner at Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities firm headquartered in New York City, is investigating the Board of Directors of NPS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("NPS" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: NPSP) for potential breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the sale of the Company to Shire PLC ("Shire") (Nasdaq: SHPG) for approximately $5.2 billion. The Company's stockholders will only receive $46 for each share of NPS common stock they own. Given the recent FDA approval of NPS's Natpara, a drug to control low blood calcium levels related to hypoparathyroidism, the Company's value could be much higher than the tender offer price.

The investigation focuses on whether NPS' Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders by failing to conduct a fair sales process and whether and by how much this proposed transaction undervalues the Company to the detriment of NPS' shareholders.
