("SunTrust" or the "Company") (NYSE: STI) may have breached their Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") mandated fiduciary duties of loyalty and prudence to participants and beneficiaries of the 401(k) Plans by failing to disclose the Company's true operating condition, including disclosures relating to SunTrust's subprime operations and the reliability of the Company's reported financial information. A breach may have occurred if the fiduciaries failed to manage the assets of the Plan prudently and loyally by investing the assets in Company stock when it was no longer a prudent investment for participants' retirement savings.
