Vitesse Semiconductor Merger Investigated by the Peiffer Rosca Wolf Law Firm on Behalf of

Investors
Vitesse Semiconductor Companys acquisition by Microsemi Corporation has raised eyebrows among a number of financial
professionals. The Peiffer Rosca Wolf law firms securities practice lawyers have launched an investigation on behalf of
Vitesse investors to determine whether the investors will receive adequate value for their shares in the acquisition.

Microsemi Corporation (Microsemi) (NASDAQ: MSCC) acquired Vitesse Semiconductor

Company (Vitesse) (NASDAQ: VTSS) for approximately $389 million. Under the agreement,
each shareholder of Vitesse will receive $5.28 in cash for each share of common stock that they
own. Shareholders and interested persons can obtain a copy of the Agreement and Plan of Merger

Typically, the board of directors of a company that is being purchased has a fiduciary duty to its
own shareholders to maximize the sale price of each share. Financial professionals have questioned
whether the acquisition price that Vitesses board agreed to was high enough. Barrons columnist
Tiernan Ray reported that David Williams and Cody Acree, both of whom are with Ascendiant
Capital Markets, changed Vitesse shares to Hold and think that the agreed price is lower than
what the stock should have garnered.
The attorneys at Peiffer Rosca Wolf Abdullah Carr & Kane have opened an investigation into the
Vitesse Board of Directors regarding Vitesses acquisition by Microsemi. The investigation
concerns whether the Board breached its fiduciary duties to maximize value for stockholders in the
acquisition. Alan Rosca, Joe Peiffer, and the other attorneys at Peiffer Rosca Wolf Abdullah Carr &
Kane represent individual and institutional investors who have suffered financial losses as a result
of unlawful conduct by financial professionals.
