In the transaction announced March 5, TriNet agreed to pay $4 a share in cash for outstanding common stock of Gevity, which was valued around $98 million.

The lawsuit claims the merger agreement contains “preclusive deal protection measures and allegedly unfair merger consideration.”

TriNet is predominantly owned and controlled by General Atlantic LLC, a Connecticut-based equity fund that owns approximately 2.2 million shares of Gevity HR, Inc, or approximately 9.5% of Gevity HR, Inc. Gevity HR, Inc’s shares (NASDAQ: GVHR) traded above $8.00 per share as recently as September 2008, and have been trading between $20 to $30 per share for several years prior to 2007. The complaint seeks an unspecified award of monetary damages and recovery of costs incurred by the plaintiff.
