Kirby McInerney LLP is investigating potential claims against the Board of Directors of ViroPharma Incorporated (“ViroPharma” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:VPHM) concerning the proposed acquisition of the Company by Shire plc (“Shire”). Under the terms of the proposed transaction, ViroPharma stockholders will receive $50.00 in cash for each share of ViroPharma owned, valuing the transaction at approximately $4.2 billion.
