WeissLaw LLP Investigates Westway Group, Inc.

WeissLaw LLP, a national class action and shareholder rights law firm with offices in New York City and Los Angeles, is investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law by the Board of Directors of Westway Group, Inc. ("Westway" or the "Company") (NasdaqGS: WWAY) arising from its agreement for Westway to be acquired by EQT Infrastructure II Fund ("EQT"), a private equity group in Northern Europe, in a transaction valued at approximately $419 million. Under the terms of the proposed transaction Westway shareholders will receive $6.70 in cash for each Westway share they own. This price is below the target price set by certain securities analysts.

WeissLaw LLP is investigating whether Westway's Board acted in the best interests of its public shareholders by actively shopping the Company to maximze shareholder value for Westway's public shareholders, prior to entering into the proposed transaction with EQT. If you own Westway shares and would like more information about your rights as a shareholder or additional information concerning our investigation, please contact Joshua M. Rubin either by email at info@weisslawllp.com or by telephone at (888) 593-4771.
