Brigham Exploration Co. was sued by shareholders contending that Statoil ASA’s $4.4 billion buyout price is too low.

The offer price is a discount to the oil and gas producer’s 52-week high trading price, according to separate suits filed by the same law firm on behalf of shareholders Robert Fioravanti and Howard Weisberg.
