SAN DIEGO, March 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights law firm Johnson Fistel, LLP has launched an investigation into whether the board members of Extended Stay America, Inc., (NASDAQ: STAY) breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the proposed sale of the Company to Blackstone Real Estate Partners ("Blackstone") and Starwood Capital Group ("Starwood Capital").

On March 15, 2021, Extended Stay announced that it had entered into a definitive merger agreement with Blackstone and Starwood Capital. Under the terms of the definitive merger agreement, Blackstone and Starwood Capital will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Extended Stay common stock for $19.50 per share in cash.
