The investigation by a law firm concerns whether certain officers and directors of Knoll, Inc. breached their fiduciary duties owed to NYSEL KNL investors in connection with the proposed acquisition.

East Greenville, PA based Knoll, Inc., together with its subsidiaries, designs, manufactures, markets, and sells commercial and residential furniture, accessories, and coverings for the workplace and residential markets in the United States, Canada, Europe, and internationally.

On April 19, 2021, Herman Miller, Inc. (NASDAQ: MLHR) and Knoll Inc. (NYSE: KNL) today announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Herman Miller will acquire Knoll in a cash and stock transaction valued at $1.8 billion. The transaction, which has been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies, is expected to close by the end of the third quarter of calendar year 2021, subject to the satisfaction of closing conditions.

Under the terms of the agreement, Knoll shareholders will receive $11.00 in cash and 0.32 shares of Herman Miller common stock for each share of Knoll common stock they own. Based on Herman Miller's five-day volume weighted average price of $43.94 per share, the transaction terms imply a purchase price of $25.06 per share.

However, the investigation concerns whether the offer is unfair to NYSEL KNL stockholders.

Those who are current investors in Knoll, Inc. (NYSE: KNL) shares have certain options and should contact the Shareholders Foundation.
