San Diego, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/08/2012 -- An investigation on behalf of investors in MetroPCS Communications Inc (NYSE:PCS) shares was announced concerning whether the merger offer to combine T-Mobile USA and MetroPCS Communications, Inc and the takeover process are unfair to investors in NYSE:PCS shares.

On October 3, 2012, Deutsche Telekom (XETRA: DTE) and MetroPCS Communications, Inc. (NYSE: PCS) announced that they have signed an agreement to combine T-Mobile USA and MetroPCS Communications, Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, MetroPCS will declare a 1 for 2 reverse stock split, pay $1.5 billion to its shareholders (a value of approximately $4.09 per share prior to the reverse split) and acquire all of T-Mobile’s capital stock by issuing to Deutsche Telekom 74% of MetroPCS’s common stock on a pro forma basis.
