Investors who purchased a significant amount of shares of ATP Oil & Gas Corporation (OTCMKTS:ATPAQ) between December 16, 2010 through August 17, 2012, have certain options and for certain investors are short and strict deadlines running.

According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of ATP Oil & Gas Corporation (OTCMKTS:ATPAQ) common stock during the period between December 16, 2010 through August 17, 2012, that the defendants violated the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Securities Act of 1933.

ATP Oil & Gas Corporation reported that its annual Total Revenue increased from $298.49 million in 2009 to $687.21 million in 2011. However, its Net Loss increased from $48.96 million in 2009 to $337.55 million in 2010 and $191.90 million in 2011. On August 17, 2012, ATP Oil & Gas Corporation announced that it was filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Shares of ATP Oil & Gas Corporation (OTCMKTS:ATPAQ) declined from as high as $22.64 per share in April 2010 to as low as 0.04 per share in Feb 2013.

The plaintiff alleges that Defendants materially misstated and/or failed to disclose that ATP Oil & Gas Corporation severely downplayed the impact that the United States Department of Interior moratoria had on the Company's business and revenues, that ATP Oil & Gas Corporation violated the provisions of certain credit agreements to which the Company was a party, and misstated ATP Oil & Gas Corporation’s liquidity and financial position.

The plaintiff claims that as a result of this misconduct, ATP Oil & Gas investors lost nearly the entire value of their investment as ATP Oil & Gas Corporation declared bankruptcy.

On August 13, 2013, ATP Oil & Gas Corporation (OTCMKTS:ATPAQ) shares closed at $0.05 per share.
