BACKDATED STOCK OPTIONS
Shapiro Haber & Urmy LLP Leading The
Nationwide Fight On Behalf Of
Shareholders Harmed By Improperly
Dated Corporate Stock Options
Shapiro Haber & Urmy LLP is at the
forefront of shareholder litigation
addressing the growing nationwide
epidemic of improperly backdated
stock options. Led by attorneys
Edward F. Haber and Michelle H.
Blauner, our firm has already filed
cases, in both state and federal
courts, concerning the improper
backdating of stock options granted
to officers, directors, and
executives of the following
corporations: Affiliated Computer
Services, Inc.; Cablevision Systems
Corporation; i2 Technologies, Inc.;
Linear Technology Corp; Maxim
Integrated Products; Rambus, Inc.;
Staples, Inc.; and UnitedHealth
Group, Inc.
In the lawsuits filed by our firm to
date, corporate officers, directors,
and executives appear to have used
backdated stock options to create
for themselves tens, or even
hundreds, of millions of
dollars in profit and unrealized
gain at the direct expense of their
corporations. Certain of the
companies, notably i2 Technologies
and Linear Technology, employed
unique types of improperly dated
stock options that were
“spring-loaded” or “bullet dodging.”
