More specifically, the plaintiff alleges that certain directors have taken actions that potentially penalize Ashford Hospitality Prime Inc financially by obligating it to pay its asset manager Ashford Inc, which is controlled by certain of the Director Defendants, an amount estimated to be in the range of $150 million, if shareholders elect a majority of new directors other than those certain directors or candidates approved by those certain directors. The plaintiff says that it was necessary to file the lawsuit to ensure that shareholders of Ashford Hospitality Prime Inc are able to vote for director candidates of their choosing without coercion from those certain directors.
