To: All Persons or Entities who purchased Alder BioPharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Alder” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ALDR) stock prior to September 16, 2019.

You are hereby notified that Levi & Korsinsky, LLP has commenced an investigation into the fairness of the sale of Alder to H. Lundbeck A/S (“Lundbeck”). Under the terms of the deal, Lundbeck will commence a tender offer for all outstanding shares of Alder, whereby Alder stockholders will be offered an upfront payment of $18.00 per share in cash and one non-tradeable Contingent Value Right that entitles them to an additional $2.00 per share upon approval of eptinezumab by the European Medicines Agency.  To learn more about the action and your rights, go to:

The Alder merger investigation concerns whether the Board of Alder breached their fiduciary duties to stockholders by failing to adequately shop the Company before agreeing to enter into this transaction, and whether Lundbeck is underpaying for Alder shares, thus unlawfully harming Alder shareholders.
