Arcadium Lithium and its board of directors are facing legal action from three shareholders over the company’s acquisition by Rio Tinto. The investors contend that Arcadium’s directors had misled shareholders and failed in their fiduciary duty to maximise value in the $US6.7 billion ($9.9 billion) deal. Rio Tinto has not been named as a defendant in the lawsuits. The proposed merger will require the support of at least 75 per cent of Arcadium’s shareholders when they vote on the deal next week.
