Harwood Feffer LLP Announces Investigation of Encore Energy Partners LP

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Harwood Feffer LLP (www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Encore Energy Partners LP ("Encore" or the "Company") (NYSE: ENP) concerning the Company’s receipt of a proposal to be acquired by its principal unitholder Vanguard Natural Resources LLL (“Vanguard”) in a transaction valued at approximately $1.05 billion.

On March 25, 2011, Encore announced that it had received a proposal from Vanguard to acquire each of its outstanding common units in exchange for 0.72 units of Vanguard. This proposal values the units of Encore at $23.20 per unit, which offer virtually no premium over the pre-existing trading price for Encore units. Our investigation concerns the board of directors’ process for consideration of the proposed transaction.
