Item 8.01 Other Events.
On April 28, 2015, Trinity Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) received a subpoena from the U.S. Department of Justice through the U.S. Attorney for the District of Massachusetts. The subpoena requests documents from 1999 through the present relating to the ET 2000 and ET Plus guardrail end-terminal products. The Company intends to cooperate with this request.
The Company is also aware that multiple law firms have recently filed purported class action lawsuits against the Company and certain of its officers alleging violations of the federal securities laws related to its disclosures regarding the ET Plus guardrail end-terminal. The Company believes each of these lawsuits is without merit and intends to vigorously defend against all allegations. Additional lawsuits making similar or related allegations may be filed against the Company and/or its officers and directors.
