Glancy Prongay & Murray LLP(“GPM”)announces that it has filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of a class (the “Class”) consisting of persons and entities that acquired Patriot National, Inc.

According to the Complaint filed in this class action, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material adverse facts about the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty by Patriot National CEO Steve Mariano, and alleged related party transactions that served to benefit Mr. Mariano to the detriment of other Company shareholders. Specifically, the complaint alleges that Defendants failed to disclose: (1) that the Patriot National special committee was beholden to Mariano; (2) that, as such, the special committee was operating for the benefit of Mariano, and not the Company or its shareholders; (3) that the special committee did not independently assess the merits of the Ebix transaction; (4) that the special committee was not exploring strategic alternatives in order to maximize shareholder value; and (5) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ statements about Patriot National’s business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

To be a member of the Class you need not take any action at this time; you may retain counsel of your choice or take no action and remain an absent member of the Class.
