Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. announces that it is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of The Connecticut Bank & Trust Company (“CBT” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CTBC) concerning possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law related to the Company’s entry into an agreement to be acquired by Berkshire Hills Bancorp, Inc.

Under the proposed agreement, 70% of the outstanding CBT shares will be exchanged for Berkshire Hills shares at a fixed exchange ratio of 0.3810 Berkshire Hills shares for each share of CBT. The remaining 30% of CBT shares will be exchanged for cash in the amount of $8.25 per share. The transaction is valued at $7.90 per CBT share based on Berkshire's average closing stock price of $20.35 for the ten trading days ended October 21, 2011.

The investigation concerns whether CBT’s board of directors adequately shopped the Company to obtain the best price possible for CBT’s shareholders before entering into the agreement with Berkshire Hills.
