San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) August 8, 2008 -- Shareholder Representative Services (SRS), the first and only company specializing in post-closing shareholder representation in private M&A transactions, today announced that it has been appointed as the representative of the former stockholders of Integration Associates, one of the fastest growing fabless semiconductor companies in Silicon Valley, following its recent acquisition by Silicon Laboratories Inc.
The principal selling shareholders of Mountain View-based Integration Associates include Sequoia Capital and Chess Ventures.
"We selected SRS as stockholder representative to take on the day-to-day management of post-closing issues so we and the other investors are free to focus on our core business of finding new opportunities and growing our portfolio companies," said Charles R. Schwab, Jr., Chess Ventures. "Hiring SRS takes the burden off our shoulders as well as the inherent risk associated with being the shareholder rep, yet we are still kept fully in the loop when disputes or other issues arise."
