TransCoastal Corp (OTCQB: TCEC), an energy development company announced that it has entered into a $5 million common stock purchase agreement with Kodiak Capital Group, LLC, a Newport Beach-based institutional investor.

“We’re very excited to begin our relationship with Kodiak and welcome their potential investment in TransCoastal,” commented Stuart Hagler, Chief Executive Officer, of TCEC. “We believe that Kodiak recognizes the value of our assets and our bright future.”

“This potential capital infusion will allow the company to accelerate its business plan to develop all three components of its assets, including recently identified acquisitions in the Cline Shale, Hogshooter, Granite Wash and Eagleford shale formations as well as our core areas of operations,” added Dave May, President of Acquisitions of TCEC.

Andy Westmorland, TCEC President of Operations, remarked “I am excited that we are going to be able to continue developing our behind pipe reserves in the Dolomites of the Panhandle, the Shale in Montague County and the James Lime in Shelby County.”
