We are investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the board of directors of Mountain Crest Acquisition Corp. (“MCAC” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MCAC) in connection with the Company’s proposed merger with Playboy Enterprises, Inc. (“Playboy”).  Under the terms of the merger agreement, MCAC will acquire Playboy through a reverse merger that will result in Playboy becoming a publicly-listed company on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol “PLBY.”  The deal has an enterprise value of approximately $415 million.

WeissLaw is investigating whether MCAC’s board acted in the best interest of MCAC’s public shareholders in agreeing to the proposed transaction, whether the board was fully informed as to the valuation of Playboy, and whether all information regarding the valuation of the transaction will be fully and fairly disclosed.\n\nWeissLaw LLP has litigated hundreds of stockholder class and derivative actions for violations of corporate and fiduciary duties.  We have recovered over a billion dollars for defrauded clients and obtained important corporate governance relief in many of these cases.  If you have information or would like legal advice concerning possible corporate wrongdoing (including insider trading, waste of corporate assets, accounting fraud, or materially misleading information), consumer fraud (including false advertising, defective products, or other deceptive business practices), or anti-trust violations, please email us at stockinfo@weisslawllp.com
