In this offering, Century Aluminum sold 24.5 million shares of common stock at a price per of $4.50 per share.
The investigation concerns violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 through the issuance of a materially false and misleading registration statement, prospectus, and other documents.
