SAN DIEGO--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--Robbins Umeda LLP has commenced an investigation into possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of state law by members of the Board of Directors of AMICAS, Inc. ("AMICAS") (NASDAQ: AMCS) in connection with their actions in causing AMICAS to enter into a definitive merger agreement with an affiliate of Thoma Bravo, LLC ("Thoma Bravo"). Under the terms of the agreement, AMICAS shareholders will receive $5.35 in cash for each share of AMICAS common stock they hold. AMICAS expects the transaction to close in the first quarter of 2010.
