Per the Money Stuff article, Section 10 has a higher burden of proof. For a shareholder to win a lawsuit under section 10, they need to show that the disclosures were deliberately misleading, such that the board was trying to defraud investors.
Under a section 11 lawsuit, however, they only need to show that the disclosures were materially wrong: proof of motivation isn't required in the same way.
