TOD Todd Shipyards Corp.

Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the Washington Superior Court, King County, on behalf of all shareholders of Todd Shipyards Corporation ("Todd") (NYSE: TOD).

The claims asserted in the complaint arise from the proposed acquisition ("Acquisition") of Todd by Vigor Industrial LLC ("Vigor"). On December 23, 2010, Todd announced that it had agreed to be acquired by Vigor in an all-cash tender offer valued at approximately $130 million. According to the complaint, and under the agreement, Vigor offered to purchase all of Todd's outstanding shares for $22.27 in cash per share.

The complaint alleges that Todd's directors and officers have breached their fiduciary duties to the company's stockholders, including the duties of good faith, loyalty, and due care. The complaint also alleges that Vigor and Woodbourne Partners, L.P., a private investment company that holds Todd shares, aided and abetted such officers' and directors' alleged breaches of their fiduciary duties.
