San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/19/2015 -- An investigation for shareholders, who currently hold NYSE:CCE shares, was announced concerning whether the takeover of Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc is unfair to NYSE:CCE stockholders.

The investigation by a law firm concerns whether certain officers and directors of Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc breached their fiduciary duties owed to NYSE:CCE investors in connection with the proposed acquisition.
On August 6, 2015, Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc (NYSE:CCE) (Euronext Paris: CCE), Coca-Cola Iberian Partners SA ("CCIP") and Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG ("CCEAG"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company (NYSE: KO), announced they have agreed to combine their businesses into a new company to be called Coca-Cola European Partners Plc. Under the terms of the agreement, Coca-Cola Enterprises shareholders will receive $14.50 in cash, and one share of the post-merger entity, for each share of Coca-Cola Enterprises they own, the value of which is equivalent to $66.34 per share of Coca-Cola Enterprises.
