Izard Nobel LLP Announces Class Action Lawsuit Against The9, Ltd.

2009-10-23 14:23 ET - News Release

WEST HARTFORD, CT -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 10/23/09

The law firm of Izard Nobel LLP, which has significant experience representing investors in prosecuting claims of securities fraud, announces that a lawsuit seeking class action status has been filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") of The9, Ltd. ("The9" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: NCTY) between November 15, 2006 and July 15, 2009 (the "Class Period").

The complaint charges that The9 and certain of its directors and officers violated federal securities laws. The complaint further alleges that defendants failed to disclose the following: (i) it was becoming increasingly less likely that The9 would be renewing the World of Witchcraft ("WoW") contract with Blizzard; (ii) The9 had not even begun formal negotiations with Blizzard regarding contract renewal; (iii) The9 and Blizzard had been at odds regarding The9's operation of WoW in China; and (iv) the equity investment by EA Sports Online in The9 had made it less likely that Blizzard would renew the WoW contract because Blizzard would essentially be doing business with one of its greatest competitors.

The remainder is available to Stockwatch subscribers.
