The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, defendants made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) Sjamsuddin had discussed, with senior officials in the Indonesian government, bribing Indonesian government officials in return for an extension of Freeport’s right to operate in the country; (ii) that Freeport had violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”); and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, Freeport’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On January 19, 2016, the chief executive officer of the Company’s Indonesian unit, Maroef Sjamsuddin, resigned, less than a month after the chairman of Freeport-McMoRan resigned.
