The investigation claims Lear and other administrators of the Plans may have breached their ERISA-mandated fiduciary duties of loyalty and prudence to participants and beneficiaries of the Plans.

A breach also may have occurred if the fiduciaries withheld or concealed material information from the Plans' participants with respect to the Company's business, financial results and operations, thereby encouraging participants and beneficiaries to continue to make and maintain substantial investments of Company stock in the Plans.
