Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. announces that it has filed a class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware on behalf of holders of ARRIS International plc ("ARRIS") (NASDAQ:ARRS) common stock in connection with the proposed acquisition of ARRIS by CommScope Holding Company, Inc. ("CommScope") announced on November 8, 2018 (the "Complaint"). The Complaint, which alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 against ARRIS, its Board of Directors (the "Board"), and CommScope, is captioned Kent v. ARRIS International plc, Case No. 1:18-cv-01960 (D. Del.).

On November 8, 2018, ARRIS entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement") with CommScope. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, shareholders of ARRIS will receive $31.75 in cash for each share of ARRIS stock they own (the "Proposed Transaction").
Among other things, the Complaint alleges that, in an attempt to secure shareholder support for the Proposed Transaction, defendants issued materially incomplete disclosures in a proxy statement (the "Proxy Statement") filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The Complaint alleges that the Proxy Statement omits material information with respect to, among other things, ARRIS's financial projections and the analyses performed by ARRIS's financial advisor. The Complaint seeks injunctive and equitable relief and damages on behalf of holders of ARRIS common stock.
If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than March 1, 2019. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Any member of the proposed class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member.
