Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. announces that it is investigating potential legal claims against the board of directors of Southcoast Financial Corporation (“Southcoast” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ GM: SOCB) regarding possible breaches of fiduciary duties and other violations of law related to the Company’s entry into an agreement to be acquired by BNC Bancorp (“BNC”) (NASDAQ CM: BNCN), in a transaction valued at approximately $95.5 million.

Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of Southcoast will receive a fixed price of $13.35 for each share of Southcoast common stock, payable in shares of BNC common stock based upon the 20-day volume weighted average price of BNC common stock prior to the closing of the merger.

The investigation concerns whether Southcoast’s board of directors failed to adequately shop the Company and obtain the best possible value for Southcoast’s shareholders before entering into an agreement with BNC. According to Yahoo! Finance, at least one analyst has issued a price target for Southcoast stock at $18.18 per share.
