Kendall Law Group Investigating Diedrich Coffee Inc. on Behalf of Shareholders

DALLAS--(Business Wire)--
Kendall Law Group, founded by a former federal judge, began an investigation on
behalf of Diedrich Coffee Inc. (NASDAQ: DDRX) shareholders. The investigation
concerns possible breaches of fiduciary duty by the Board of Directors in
connection with the proposed acquisition by Peet`s Coffee & Tea, Inc. This is a
cash and stock transaction valued at approximately $213 million.

According to the agreement, Diedrich shareholders will receive $17.33 in cash
and 0.315 share of Peet`s stock, which is $8.67 based on the closing price of
Peet`s on the last trading day before the announcement. This provides
shareholders approximately $26.00 for their Diedrich stock, while it traded at
$31.34 as recently as October 26, 2009.

Former federal judge Joe Kendall said, "the investigation concerns whether the
consideration to be paid to shareholders is grossly unfair, inadequate, and
substantially below the fair or inherent value of Diedrich and whether the
directors and special committee members may have breached their fiduciary duties
by not acting in the shareholders` best interests in connection with the sale
process."
