Harwood Feffer LLP Announces Investigation of Hostess Brands, Inc. On Behalf Of Former Hostess Employees

NEW YORK, Dec. 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP (www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against Hostess Brands, Inc. ("Hostess" or the "Company") concerning the possible manipulation of employee benefit plans.

On December 10, 2012, the Wall Street Journal reported that Hostess admitted that it had used funds targeted for contribution to the Hostess pension fund for the use of on-going operations at Hostess.  Participants in the Hostess benefit plans may have been harmed as a result of Hostess' failure to fully contribute in 2011.  Harwood Feffer's investigation concerns whether fiduciaries of the Hostess benefit plans have fulfilled their fiduciary duties of loyalty and good faith in the administration of the benefit plans.

If you are a former employee of Hostess, who participated in the Hostess benefit plans, and wish to discuss this matter with us, or have any questions concerning your rights and interests, please contact:
