Kaplan Kilsheimer & Fox LLP Announces Class Action Suit Against Terayon Communications Systems, Inc. and Certain of Its Officers NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 28, 2000--Counsel for Class Plaintiff, Kaplan, Kilsheimer & Fox LLP today issued the following: A class action has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Central District of California on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of Terayon Communications Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: TERN) between February 2, 2000 and April 11, 2000, inclusive (the "Class Period"). The lawsuit charges Terayon and certain of its officers and directors with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The complaint alleges, among other things, that defendants issued materially false and misleading statements concerning the certification of the Company's proprietary S-CDMA cable modem technology and the Company's financial condition. The complaint further alleges that defendants engaged in a scheme to deceive the investing public regarding Terayon's new product capabilities and acceptability as an industry standard technology, foreseeable product demand, growth, operations and the intrinsic value of Terayon common stock. In addition, defendants are alleged to have registered and/or sold over $439 million worth of Terayon shares at artificially inflated prices via share-for-share acquisitions of other companies. As a result, Company insiders were able to sell over 71,000 shares of their privately held Terayon common stock during the Class Period, while in possession of materially adverse, undisclosed information, allowing them to reap proceeds of at least $15.9 million.
