Ward on Iowa Limited Liability Company Law: “In 2005 John Q. Hammons Hotels, Inc. was sold to a private company. The minority shareholders received $24 per share for their 24% interest and John Q. himself received different consideration for his 76% stake. Hammond’s consideration included a small stake in the buyer with a preferential buyout, a line of credit and other consideration. The parties disagreed on whether his consideration was worth more or less than $24 per share. The plaintiffs brought a class action alleging that Hammons and the board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by negotiating different consideration and allowing the merger to be approved through a deficient process, respectively.”
