Under the proposed agreement, PPR will commence a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of Volcom for $24.50 per share in cash. In addition, certain Volcom directors and officers, who collectively own 14.4% of the Company’s outstanding shares, have agreed to tender all of their shares in the tender offer.

The investigation concerns whether Volcom’s board of directors failed to adequately shop the Company and obtain the best price possible for Volcom’s shareholders before entering into the agreement with PPR.
