Kendall
Law Group, led by former federal judge Joe Kendall, is investigating
Savvis Inc. (NASDAQ: SVVS) for shareholders in connection with the
proposed acquisition by CenturyLink Inc. The national securities firm’s
investigation seeks to determine whether Savvis and its Board breached
their fiduciary duties by entering into the agreement without properly
shopping for a deal that would provide better value for shareholders. If
you are a Savvis shareholder and would like additional information about
your rights, contact the Kendall Law Group at 877-744-3728 or by email

On April 27, 2011, the companies announced the definitive merger
agreement under which Savvis would be acquired by CenturyLink, in a
transaction valued at approximately $2.5 billion. Under the terms of the
agreement, Savvis stockholders will receive $30 a share in cash and $10
in CenturyLink stock (NYSE: CTL) for each share of Savvis/SVVS common
stock held. According to Thompson/First Call, analysts have set a price
target as high as $46.00 per share for Savvis stock. The offer price
represents a 11% premium over Savvis stock’s Tuesday closing price. The
firm’s investigation seeks to determine whether Savvis and its Board
undertook a fair process in negotiating the deal.
Kendall Law Group was founded by a former federal judge, includes a
former United States Attorney, prosecutors and securities lawyers who
are experienced in complex securities litigation. The firm has been
