     On July 29, 2010, Range Resources Corporation (“Range”) announced that it priced an offering at par of $500 million aggregate principal amount of senior subordinated notes due 2020, which will carry an interest rate of 6.75% (the “2020 Notes”). Range intends to use approximately $204.2 million of the net proceeds of the offering of the 2020 Notes to redeem all $200 million in outstanding principal amount of and accrued interest to its 7 3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2013 (the “2013 Notes”). The remaining proceeds will be used to pay down a portion of the outstanding balance of Range’s senior credit facility, which amounts may be re-borrowed subject to the terms of the senior credit facility.

     The 2020 Notes were sold pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, dated July 29, 2010 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and among J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Banc of America Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), Range, and the following subsidiaries of Range, which are expected to fully and unconditionally guarantee the 2020 Notes on a senior subordinated basis (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”):

•

American Energy Systems, LLC

•

Energy Assets Operating Company, LLC

•

Oil & Gas Title Abstracting, LLC

•

Range Energy Services Company, LLC

•

Range Gathering & Processing Company, LLC

•

Range Operating New Mexico, LLC

•

•

Range Resources — Appalachia, LLC

•

     The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by Range and the Subsidiary Guarantors, and customary conditions to closing, indemnification rights, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. Range has agreed with the Underwriters not to offer or sell any debt securities issued or guaranteed by Range having a term of more than one year (other than the 2020 Notes) for a period of 60 days after the date of the Underwriting Agreement without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc.

     The Underwriters or their affiliates have from time to time provided investment banking, commercial banking and financial advisory services to Range and its affiliates, for which they have received customary compensation. The Underwriters and their affiliates may provide similar services in the future. In particular, certain of the underwriters or their affiliates are lenders under Range’s senior credit facility or hold some of our 2013 Notes, and, in either case, will receive a portion of the note proceeds from this offering. In addition, from time to time, certain of the Underwriters and their affiliates may effect transactions for their own account or the account of customers, and hold on behalf of themselves or their customers, long or short positions in Range’s debt or equity securities or loans, and may do so in the future.
