Molson Coors Brewing Company NYSE: TAP

A lawsuit seeking class action status has been filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware on behalf of (i) former shareholders of Molson Inc. ("Molson") who received shares of Molson Coors Brewing Company ("Molson Coors") (NYSE: TAP - News) as a result of the February 9, 2005 merger of Molson by and into the Adolph Coors Company ("Coors"); (ii) open market purchasers of the common stock of Coors from July 22, 2004 to February 9, 2005; and (iii) open market purchasers of the common stock of Molson Coors, following completion of the merger between Molson and Coors on or about February 9, 2005 to April 27, 2005.

The Complaint alleges that defendants violated federal securities laws by making materially false or misleading public statements. Specifically, the Complaint alleges Coors failed to disclose that it was not operating according to plan in the first quarter of 2005 in order to safeguard its planned merger with Molson. On April 28, 2005, after the merger, Molson Coors disclosed disappointing results for the first quarter of 2005. On this news, Molson Coors shares fell from a close of $77.30 on April 27, 2005, to close at $63.00 on April 28, 2005.
