According to the complaint the plaintiff alleges that Chesapeake Energy Corporation (“Chesapeake”), certain of its officers and directors, and certain underwriters of the secondary public stock offering violated the Securities Act of 1933. According to the complaint, on July 15, 2008, Chesapeake completed a secondary public offering of 28.75 million shares of common stock at $57.25 per share, receiving approximately $1.65 billion in gross proceeds, with net proceeds of $1.586 billion. The complaint alleges that the Registration Statement issued in connection with the Offering was materially false and misleading because it failed to disclose numerous facts which were required to be stated therein. During late 2008 and early 2009, as these omitted facts were revealed to the market, the price of Chesapeake stock  declined to less than $12 per share, approximately 80% below the Offering price, so the lawsuit.
