Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
On March 1, 2018, a purported class action complaint was filed against several directors of Lifetouch, Inc. (which became a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Shutterfly on April 2, 2018) and the trustee of the Lifetouch Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the ESOP) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota. On April 2, 2018, the complaint was amended to include the prior ESOP trustees and plan sponsor (Lifetouch) as additional named defendants. The complaint alleged violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, including that the ESOP should not have been permitted to continue investing in Lifetouch stock during a period in which the Lifetouch stock price was declining. The plaintiffs sought recovery for damages arising from the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. On November 7, 2018, the lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice.
