As of the date of this prospectus we have not made any arrangement with any market makers to quote our shares.

In the event that 1,250,000 shares are not sold within the 180 days, or within the additional 90 days if extended, all money received by us will be promptly returned to each subscriber without interest or deduction of any kind. If at least 1,250,000 shares are sold within 180 days, or within the additional 90 days, if extended, all money received by us will be retrieved by us and there will be no refund.

There are no minimum purchase requirements, and there are no arrangements to place the funds in an escrow, trust, or similar account.

SUMMARY OF OUR OFFERING

Our Business

We were incorporated on May 31, 2006. We are an exploration stage corporation. An exploration stage corporation is one engaged in the search for mineral deposits or reserves which are not in either the development or production stage. We intend to conduct exploration activities on one property. Record title to the property upon which we intend to conduct exploration activities is not held in our name. The property is owned by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The right to mine the claims has been obtained by Gold Explorations LLC of Minden, Nevada. Mariposa entered into an option agreement to purchase the claims through a five year payment program totaling $53,000 USD and a five year work program totaling $50,000 USD. We intend to conduct exploration activities on the MRP Claims located in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The one property consists of twenty lode mining claims. We intend to explore for gold on the property.

There is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months and we will have to suspend or cease operations within the next twelve months unless we raise at least the minimum amount in this offering.

We have no plans for revenue generation and we will not generate revenues as a result of this offering.

In all probability the property we intend to explore does not contain any mineral reserves and therefore, any investment in this offering will probably be lost.

At the present, we have no full-time employees. Our two officers and three directors each will devote approximately 10% - 25% of their time or 4 to 10 hours per week to our operation.

There is no trading market for the shares being offered.

Our administrative office is located at 11923 S.W. 37 Terrace, Miami FL, 33175 and our telephone number is (305) 677-9456. Our registered statutory office is located at 2533 North Carson Street, Carson City, NV 89706. Our fiscal year end is June 30.

Management or affiliates thereof, will not purchase shares in this offering in order to reach the minimum.

RISK FACTORS

Please consider the following risk factors before deciding to invest in our common stock. We discuss all material risks in the risk factors.

Risks associated with MARIPOSA RESOURCES LTD.

1. If we do not raise at least the minimum amount of this offering, we will have to suspend or cease operations.

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. If we do not raise at least the minimum amount from our offering, we will have to suspend or cease operations within twelve months.

2. Our plan of operation is limited to finding an ore body. As such we have no plans for revenue generation. Accordingly, you should not expect any revenues from operations.

Our plan of operation and the funds we raise from this offering will be used for exploration of the property to determine if there is an ore body beneath the surface. Exploration does not contemplate removal of the ore. We have no plans or funds for ore removal. Accordingly, we will not generate any revenues as a result of your investment.

3. Because the probability of an individual prospect ever having reserves is extremely remote any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost.

The probability of an individual prospect ever having reserves is extremely remote. In all probability the property does not contain any reserves. As such, any funds spent on exploration will probably be lost which will result in a loss of your investment.

4. We lack an operating history and have losses which we expect to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease operations.

We were incorporated on May 31, 2006 and we have not started our proposed business operations or realized any revenues. We have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our net loss since inception is $2,687. To achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow we are dependent upon:

 

*

our ability to locate mineralized material

 

*

our ability to generate revenues

 

*

our ability to reduce exploration costs

Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods. This will happen because there are expenses associated with the research and exploration of our mineral properties. As a result, we may not generate revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause us to suspend or cease operations.

7


5. Because our management does not have technical training or experience in exploring for, starting, and operating an exploration program, we will have to hire qualified personnel. If we can't locate qualified personnel, we may have to suspend or cease operations which will result in the loss of your investment.

Because our management is inexperienced with exploring for, starting, and operating an exploration program, we will have to hire qualified persons to perform surveying, exploration, and excavation of the property. Our management has no direct training or experience in these areas and as a result may not be fully aware of many of the specific requirements related to working within the industry. Management's decisions and choices may not take into account standard engineering or managerial approaches mineral exploration companies commonly use. Consequently our operations, earnings and ultimate financial success could suffer irreparable harm due to management's lack of experience in this industry. As a result we may have to suspend or cease operations which will result in the loss of your investment.

6. Because we are small and do not have much capital, we may have to limit our exploration activity which may result in a loss of your investment.

Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our exploration activity. As such we may not be able to complete an exploration program that is as thorough as we would like. In that event, an existing ore body may go undiscovered. Without an ore body, we cannot generate revenues and you will lose your investment.

7. Because Mr. Nanuk Warman, Ms. Rossanna Vivo, and Mr. Douglas Scheving have other outside business activities and Mr. Warman will only be devoting 25% of his time or 10 hours per week and Ms. Vivo and Mr. Scheving each will only be devoting 10% of their time, or four hours per week to our operations, our operations may be sporadic which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of exploration .

Because Mr. Warman , Ms. Rossanna Vivo, and Mr. Scheving our officers and directors have other outside business activities and Mr. Warman will only be devoting 25% of his time or 10 hours per week and Ms. Vivo and Mr. Scheving each will only be devoting 10% of their time, or four hours per week to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are convenient to Mr. Warman , Ms. Vivo and Mr. Scheving. As a result, exploration of the property may be periodically interrupted or suspended.

Risks associated with this offering:

8. If our officers and directors resign or die without having found replacements our operations will be suspended or cease. If that should occur, you could lose your investment.

We have two officers and three directors. We are entirely dependent upon them to conduct our operations. If they should resign or die there will be no one to operate the company. Further, we do not have key man insurance. If we lose the services of our officers and directors, and until we find other persons to replace them, our operations will be suspended or cease entirely. In that event it is possible you could lose your entire investment.

8


9. Because there is no escrow, trust or similar account, your subscription could be seized by creditors. If that occurs you could lose your investment.

There is no escrow, trust or similar account in which your subscription will be deposited. It will only be deposited in a separate bank account under our name. As a result, if we are sued for any reason and a judgment is rendered against us, your subscription could be seized in a garnishment proceeding and you could lose your investment, even if we fail to raise the minimum amount in this offering.

10. Because there is no public trading market for our common stock, you may not be able to resell your stock and as a result your investment is illiquid .

There is currently no public trading market for our common stock. Therefore there is no central place, such as a stock exchange or electronic trading system, to resell your shares. If you do want to resell your shares, you will have to locate a buyer and negotiate your own sale, of which there is no assurance. As a result, your investment is illiquid.

11. NASD sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

The NASD has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the NASD believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The NASD requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity and liquidity of our common stock. Further, many brokers charge higher fees for penny stock transactions. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, reducing a stockholder's ability to resell shares of our common stock.

12. Our directors will continue to exercise significant control over our operations. As a minority shareholder, you would have no control over certain matters requiring stockholder approval that could affect your ability to resell any shares you purchase in this offering.

After the completion of this offering, our executive officers and directors will own 60% of our common stock. Due to the controlling amount of their share ownership, they will have a significant influence in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions, including the election of directors, approval of significant corporate transactions, changes in control of the company or other matters that could affect your ability to ever resell your shares. Their interests may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are disadvantageous to other shareholders.

13. We will incur ongoing costs and expenses for SEC reporting and compliance, we may not be able to remain in compliance, making it difficult for investors to sell their shares, if at all.

Our business plan allows for the estimated $16,000 cost of this Registration Statement to be paid from existing cash on hand. We plan to contact a market maker immediately following the effectiveness of

9


this Registration Statement and apply to have the shares quoted on the Bulletin Board operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. To be eligible for quotation on the Bulletin Board, issuers must remain current in their filings with the SEC. Securities that become delinquent in their required filings are removed. In order for us to remain in compliance we will require funds to cover the cost of these filings, which could comprise a substantial portion of our available cash resources. If we are unable to remain in compliance it may be difficult for you to resell any shares you may purchase, if at all.

Our offering is being made on a $50,000 minimum $80,000 maximum self-underwritten basis. The table below sets forth the use of proceeds if $50,000, $65,000 and $80,000 of the offering is sold.

The cost of a qualified person to manage the program is included in the cost of the various programs.

Sample analysis is the cost of analysis of soil and rock samples to test for mineralization. We are not going to spend any sums of money or implement our exploration program until this offering is completed. We have not begun exploration. We havehad preliminary discussions with Gold Explorations LLC, managed by Steve Karolyi, regarding the supervision of the exploration program. Soil and rock sampling will be done on a control grid, tying into brass caps or other permanent points. The BLM claim fees are the annual costs paid to the US Department of the Interior and they are $135 per claim (we have 20 claims).

Professional fees are the costs related to accounting and legal fees primarily relating to filing of reports with the SEC unrelated to this public offering.

10


Office expenses and rent are the costs related to operating our office. It is comprised of expenses for monthly rent of $200, telephone service, mail, stationary, acquisition of office equipment and supplies.

No proceeds from the offering will be paid to officers and directors.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The price of the shares we are offering was arbitrarily determined in order for us to raise up to a total of $80,000 in this offering. The offering price bears no relationship whatsoever to our assets, earnings, book value or other criteria of value. Among the factors considered were:

*

our lack of operating history

*

the proceeds to be raised by the offering

*

the amount of capital to be contributed by purchasers in this offering in proportion to

 

the amount of stock to be retained by our existing Stockholders, and

*

our relative cash requirements.

 

DILUTION OF THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR YOUR SHARES

Dilution represents the difference between the offering price and the net tangible book value per share immediately after completion of this offering. Net tangible book value is the amount that results from subtracting total liabilities and intangible assets from total assets. Dilution arises mainly as a result of our arbitrary determination of the offering price of the shares being offered. Dilution of the value of the shares you purchase is also a result of the lower book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders.

As of July 31, 2006, the net tangible book value of our shares of common stock was approximately $20,700 or approximately $0.007 per share based upon 3,000,000 shares outstanding.

If 100% of the Shares Are Sold:

Upon completion of this offering, in the event all of the shares are sold, the net tangible book value of the 5,000,000 shares to be outstanding will be $100,700 or approximately $0.02 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will be increased by $0.013 per share without any additional investment on their part.

After completion of this offering, if 2,000,000 shares are sold, you will own 40% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which you will have made a cash investment of $80,000 or $0.04 per share. Our existing stockholders will own 60% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have made contributions of cash totaling $30,000 or $0.01 per share.

If 81.25% of the Shares Are Sold:

Upon completion of this offering, in the event 81.25% of the shares are sold, the net tangible book value of the 4,625,000 shares to be outstanding will be approximately $85,700 or approximately

11


$0.019 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will be increased by $0.012 per share without any additional investment on their part.

After completion of this offering, if 1,625,000 shares are sold, you will own approximately 35.14% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which you will have made a cash investment of $65,000 or $0.04 per share. Our existing stockholders will own approximately 64.86% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have made contributions of cash totaling $30,000 or approximately $0.01 per share.

If the Minimum Number of the Shares Are Sold:

Upon completion of this offering, in the event the minimum number of shares is sold, the net tangible book value of the 4,250,000 shares to be outstanding will be approximately $70,700 or approximately $0.017 per share. The net tangible book value of the shares held by our existing stockholders will be increased by $0.01 per share without any additional investment on their part.

After completion of this offering, if 1,250,000 shares are sold, you will own approximately 29.41% of the total number of shares then outstanding for which you will have made a cash investment of $50,000 or $0.04 per share. Our existing stockholders will own approximately 70.59% of the total number of shares then outstanding, for which they have made contributions of cash totaling $30,000 or approximately $0.01 per share.

The funds will be maintained in the separate bank account until we receive a minimum of $50,000 at which time we will remove those funds and use the same as set forth in the Use of Proceeds section of this prospectus. This account is not an escrow, trust or similar account and will only be deposited in a separate bank account under our name. As a result, if we are sued for any reason and a judgment is rendered against us, your subscription could be seized in a garnishment proceeding and you could lose your investment, even if we fail to raise the minimum amount in this offering. As a result, there is no assurance that your funds will be returned to you if the minimum offering is not reached. Any funds received by us thereafter will be immediately available to us.

If we do not receive the minimum amount of $50,000 within 180 days of the effective date of our registration statement, 90 additional days if we so choose, all funds will be promptly returned to you without interest or a deduction of any kind. Further, no fees, such as bank fees, will be paid out of the funds held in the separate bank account. During the 180 day period and possible additional 90 day period, no funds will be returned to you. You will only receive a refund of your subscription if we do not raise a minimum of $50,000 within the 180 day period referred to above which could be expanded by an additional 90 days at our discretion for a total of 270 days. If the Board of Directors decides to extend the offering period we would inform investors that their money will be promptly returned

13


unless the investors make an affirmative statement to us that they wish to subscribe to the extended offering. We must receive this affirmative statement prior to the original expiration date of the offering.

There are no finders fees involved in our distribution. Officers, directors, affiliates or anyone involved in marketing the shares will not be allowed to purchase shares in the offering. You will not have the right to withdraw your funds during the offering. You will only have the right to have your funds returned if we do not raise the minimum amount of the offering or there would be a change in the material terms of the offering.

*

extension of the offering period beyond 270 days;

 

*

change in the offering price;

 

*

change in the minimum sales requirement;

 

*

*

change in the amount of proceeds necessary to release the proceeds held in the separate bank account; and,

Rule 3a4-1 sets forth those conditions under which a person associated with an issuer may participate in the offering of the issuer's securities and not be deemed to be a broker/dealer. The conditions are that:

1. The person is not statutorily disqualified, as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Act, at the time of his participation; and,

2. The person is not compensated in connection with his participation by the payment of commissions or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions in securities;

3. The person is not at the time of their participation, an associated person of a broker/dealer; and,

4. The person meets the conditions of Paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of Rule 3a4-1 of the Exchange Act, in that he (A) primarily performs, or is intended primarily to perform at the end of the offering, substantial duties for or on behalf of the Issuer otherwise than in connection with transactions in securities; and (B) is not a broker or dealer, or an associated person of a broker or dealer, within the preceding twelve (12) months; and (C) do not participate in selling and offering of securities for any Issuer more than once every twelve (12) months other than in reliance on Paragraphs (a)(4)(i) or (a)(4)(iii).

This is a self-underwritten offering. This prospectus is part of a prospectus that permits our officers and directors to sell the shares directly to the public, with no commission or other

14


 remuneration payable to them for any shares they sell. There are no plans or arrangements to enter into any contracts or agreements to sell the shares with a broker or dealer. Our officers and directors will sell the shares and intend to offer them to friends, family members and business acquaintances. In offering the securities on our behalf, our officers and directors will rely on the safe harbor from broker dealer registration set out in Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which sets forth those conditions under which a person associated with an Issuer may participate in the offering of the Issuer's securities and not be deemed to be a broker-dealer.

Management and affiliates thereof will not purchase shares in this offering to reach the minimum.

Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act - Penny Stock Disclosure

Our shares are "penny stocks" covered by section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6 promulgated there under. They impose additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $100,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Rule, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and also may affect your ability to resell your shares.

Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny securities. These rules require a one page summary of certain essential items. The items include the risk of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to an understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as "bid" and "offer" quotes, a dealers "spread" and broker/dealer compensation; the broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers duties to its customers, including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules; the customers rights and remedies in causes of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, the NASD's toll free telephone number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the disciplinary history of broker/dealers and their associated persons. While Section 15g and Rules 15g-1 through 15g-6 apply to broker/dealers, they do not apply to us.

Rule 15g-1 exempts a number of specific transactions from the scope of the penny stock rules.

Rule 15g-2 declares unlawful broker/dealer transactions in penny stocks unless the broker/dealer has first provided to the customer a standardized disclosure document.

Rule 15g-3 provides that it is unlawful for a broker/dealer to engage in a penny stock transaction unless the broker/dealer first discloses and subsequently confirms to the customer current quotation prices or similar market information concerning the penny stock in question.

Rule 15g-4 prohibits broker/dealers from completing penny stock transactions for a customer unless the broker/dealer first discloses to the customer the amount of compensation or other remuneration received as a result of the penny stock transaction.

15


Rule 15g-5 requires that a broker dealer executing a penny stock transaction, other than one exempt under Rule 15g-1, disclose to its customer, at the time of or prior to the transaction, information about the sales persons compensation.

Rule 15g-6 requires broker/dealers selling penny stocks to provide their customers with monthly account statements.

Again, the foregoing rules apply to broker/dealers. They do not apply to us in any manner whatsoever. The application of the penny stock rules may affect your ability to resell your shares because many brokers are unwilling to buy, sell or trade penny stocks as a result of the additional sales practices imposed upon them which are described in this section.

ORGANIZATION WITHIN LAST FIVE YEARS

BUSINESS

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 31, 2006. We are an exploration stage corporation. An exploration stage corporation is one engaged in the search of mineral deposits or reserves which are not in either the development or production stage. We intend to conduct exploration activities on the MRP Claims, Esmeralda County, Nevada. We maintain our statutory registered agent's office at Laughlin Associates, Inc., 2533 North Carson Street, Carson City, Nevada 89706 and our business office is located at 11923 S.W. 37 Terrace, Miami FL 33175. This is our mailing address as well. Our telephone number is (305) 677-9456. We pay $200.00 rent per month for approximately 160 sq. feet of office space.

There is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on the property and further exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic feasibility is determined.

We have no plans to change our business activities or to combine with another business, and are not aware of any events or circumstances that might cause our plans to change.

Background

On July 27, 2006 we executed a Mineral Claim Purchase Agreement with Gold Explorations LLC, an unrelated third party that holds title to the property. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, we have the right to explore for gold on 400 acres. The property is comprised of 20 lode mining claims in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The terms of the agreement provide that we will pay Gold Explorations LLC $5,000 upon signing and transfer of title, to which we have. An additional $5,000 one year from signing, an additional $8,000 two years after signing, $10,000 three years after signing, $10,000 four years after signing, and a final payment of $15,000 five years after signing.

We may terminate the agreement upon giving thirty (30) days notice. The property is subject to the rules and regulations of the Bureau of Land Management. We will be exploring for mineralized material. Mineralized material is a mineralized body, which has been delineated by appropriate spaced drilling or underground sampling to support sufficient tonnage and average grade of metals to justify removal. The Agreement grants us the right to enter the property with our employees, representatives and agents, and to prospect, explore, test, develop, work and mine the property.

We will be responsible for payment of any taxes and maintenance fees due to BLM for 2007 and every year thereafter. Pursuant to the agreement, it is understood and agreed that in the event either party stakes additional claims within one mile of the existing outer boundary of the MRP claims, those claims will become part of this agreement.

17


We have no revenues, have achieved losses since inception, have no operations, have been issued a going concern opinion and rely upon the sale of our securities and loans from our officers and directors to fund operations.

The agreement calls for title of the mineral claims to be transferred to Mariposa Resources Ltd. Mariposa is required to return the claims to Gold Explorations LLC in the event that is does not fulfill the terms of the purchase agreement. As title holder, Mariposa has the right to enter the property with our employees, representatives and agents, and to prospect, explore, test, develop, work and mine the property.

The property is unencumbered and there are no competitive conditions which affect the property. Further, there is no insurance covering the property and we believe that no insurance is necessary since the property is unimproved and contains no buildings or improvements.

To date we have not performed any work on the property. We are presently in the exploration stage and we cannot guarantee that a commercially viable mineral deposit, a reserve, exists in the property until further exploration is done and a comprehensive evaluation concludes economic and legal feasibility.

Claims

The property consists of 20 lode claims. The claims have been legally located and filed with the Esmeralda County, Nevada. After September 1, 2006 the annual fees payable to the Bureau Of Land Management (BLM) amount to $135.00 (U.S.$) per claim per year to keep the claims valid.

Location and Access

18


The MRP is located in the Montezuma Mining District of Esmeralda County, Nevada, approximately 8 miles west of the historic mining camp of Goldfield, Nevada where over 4 million ounces of gold (plus silver) have been produced. This portion of Esmeralda County including the MRP Claims is centered within the Walker Lane lineament, a regional structural zone that has hosted numerous gold-silver deposits. The anomaly occupies a steep canyon. The area is rugged and the elevation is 7000'. It does not usually get a lot of snow. The property is accessible year round via maintained County gravel roads.

History

This area is near Goldfield, Nevada. Goldfield was a big producer in 1903. The MRP area was originally prospected by the old timers probably back in the 1910 era and again in the 1980's. The work in the 1980's was focused near the volcanic and sediment contact. The large gold anomaly was not discovered until the early 1990's and remains unexplored. This anomaly, which is within the now MRP claims, is approximately 2,500 feet in length and as much as 600 feet in width.

Geology

The MRP location is made up of the preCambrian Deep Springs Formation to the north and Tertiary volcanics on the south half of the area. The two lithologies are in contact along a previously mapped caldera margin. Widespread hotsprings activity and deposition has taken place along the contact zone.

The marine carbonate and clastic sequence of the Deep Springs Formation provides a depositional environment on the MRP area similar in rock type to numerous other sediment-hosted gold districts elsewhere in Nevada such as Jerritt Canyon, Cortez-Gold Acres, Alligator Ridge, Rain and others along the Carlin Trend. A zone of intensified argillic alteration containing exposures of gossan, jasperoid, quartz-sericite silicified limestones were recently recognized in Deep Springs rocks within the MRP area. Reconnaissance rock chip sampling within this zone has returned gold values from several hundred ppb to over 0.30 opt gold.

Potential for a sediment-hosted type gold deposit is indicated on the MRP property by favourable host rock type, alteration character, anomalous to ore grade gold in altered zones, size and number of anomalous gold/alteration zones and lack of previous exploration.

Supplies

Supplies and manpower are readily available for exploration of the property.

Other

Other than our purchase agreement of the property, we own no plants or other property. Mariposa holds title to the mineral claims, subject to the terms of the purchase agreement and has the right to conduct exploration activity in accordance with the rules and regulations of the regulatory authorities.

Our Proposed Exploration Program

A control grid will have to be surveyed in typing the grid to a permanent brass cap survey point. The grid will cover (overlap) the known gold anomaly with lines spaced 300 feet apart and the sample stations on 100 foot spacing or 50 foot as conditions allow or warrant. Approximately 25 rock chip samples will be taken from exposed outcrops and tied into the control grid. All samples will be boxed and shipped to Chemex Lab in Elko, Nevada for analysis. Gold and whichever anomalous gold pathfinder element will be plotted on 24" x 30" sheets. We estimate the total time to complete the project is 30 - 40 days including plotting the data.

The objective of this work would be to determine if there is an economically recoverable gold resource on this property. This initial phase of work will provide enough information to allow the company to decide whether or not to proceed to the next phase of exploration.

We must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our properties and if any minerals which are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.

The property is undeveloped raw land. Exploration and surveying has not been initiated and will not be initiated until we raise money in this offering. That is because we do not have money to start exploration. Once the offering is concluded, we intend to start exploration operations.

Before mineral retrieval can begin, we must explore for and find mineralized material. After that has occurred we have to determine if it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material. Economically feasible means that the costs associated with the removal of the mineralized material will not exceed the price at which we can sell the mineralized material. We can't predict what that will be until we find mineralized material.

24


We do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever at this time on any of the property.

The costs of our work program were provided by Steve Karolyi. He estimated the cost of supervision, surveying in the control grid, collecting soil and rock samples, sample analysis, assays, labor, supplies, truck expense and data plotting to be US$22,000. We have no relationship with Mr. Karolyi. We will begin exploration activity after this public offering is completed.

We cannot provide you with a more detailed discussion of how our exploration program will work and what we expect will be our likelihood of success. That is because we have a piece of raw land and we intend to look for a gold ore body. We may or may not find an ore body. Our purchase agreement grants us the right to enter on the property with our employees, representatives and agents, and to prospect, explore, test, develop, work and mine the property. We hope we do, but it is impossible to predict the likelihood of such an event. In addition, the nature and direction of the exploration may change depending upon initial results. Because we have not found economic mineralization, it is impossible to project future revenue generation.

Competitive Factors

The gold mining industry is fragmented, that is there are many, many gold prospectors and producers, small and large. We do not compete with anyone. That is because there is no competition for the exploration or removal of minerals from the property. We will either find gold on the property or not. If we do not, we will cease or suspend operations. We are one of the smallest exploration companies in existence. We are an infinitely small participant in the gold mining market. Readily available gold markets exist in the United States and around the world for the sale of gold. Therefore, we will be able to sell any gold that we are able to recover.

Regulations

Our mineral exploration program is subject to the regulations of the Bureau of Land Management.

The prospecting on the property is provided under the existing 1872 Mining Law and all permits for exploration and testing must be obtained through the local Bureau of Land Management (BLM) office of the Department of Interior. Obtaining permits for minimal disturbance as envisioned by this exploration program will require making the appropriate application and filing of the bond to cover the reclamation of the test areas. From time to time, an archeological clearance may need to be contracted to allow the testing program to proceed.

Rental Fee Requirement

The Federal government's Continuing Act of 2002 extends the requirement of rental or maintenance fees in place of assessment work for filing and holding mining claims with the BLM. All claimants must pay a yearly maintenance fee of $135 per claim for all or part of the mining claim assessment year. The fee must be paid at the State Office of the Bureau of Land Management by August 31, of each year. Mariposa Resources Ltd. has paid this fee through 2006. The assessment year

25


ends at noon on September 1 st each year. The initial maintenance fee is paid at the time the Notice of Location is filed with the BLM and covers the remainder of the assessment year in which the claim was located. There are no exemptions from the initial fee. Some claim holders made qualify for a Small Miner Exemption waiver of the maintenance fee for assessment years after the year in which the claim was located. We do not qualify for a Small Miner Exemption. The following sets out the BLM fee schedule:

* Fee schedule reflects increases of July 2004 and July 2005.

The BLM regulations provide for three types of operations on public lands: 1. Casual Use level, 2. Notice level and 3. Plan of Operation level.

1. Casual Use means activities ordinarily resulting in no or negligible disturbance of the public lands or resources. Casual Use operations involve simple prospecting with hand tools such as picks, shovels, and metal detectors. Small-scale mining devices such as dry washers having engines with less than 10 brake-horsepower are allowed, provided they are fed using only hand tools. Casual Use level operations are not required to file an application to conduct activities or post a financial guarantee.

2. Notice level operations include only exploration activities in which five or less acres of disturbance are proposed. Presently, all Notice Level operations require a written notice and must be bonded for all activities other than reclamation.

3. Plans of Operation activities include all mining and processing (regardless of the size of the proposed disturbance), plus all other activities exceeding five acres of proposed public land disturbance.

Operators are encouraged to conduct a thorough inventory of the claim to determine the full extent of any existing disturbance and to meet with field office personnel at the site before developing an estimate. The inventory should include photographs taken "before" and "after" any mining activity.

If an operator constructs access or uses an existing access way for an operation and would object to BLM blocking, removing, or claiming that access, then the operator must post a financial guarantee that covers the reclamation of the access.

Concurrence by the BLM for occupancy is required whenever residential occupancy is proposed or when fences, gates, or signs will be used to restrict public access or when structures that could be used for shelter are placed on a claim. It is the claimant's responsibility to prepare a complete notice or plan of operators.

26


Mining Claims On State Land

The Nevada law authorizing location of claims on State Lands was repealed in 1998. Acquisition of mineral rights on Nevada trust land can only be accomplished by application for a prospecting permit, mineral lease, or lease of common variety materials.

We are in compliance with all laws and will continue to comply with the laws in the future. We believe that compliance with the laws will not adversely affect our business operations.

We are responsible to provide a safe working environment, not disrupt archaeological sites, and conduct our activities to prevent unnecessary damage to the property.

Gold Explorations LLC (Steve Karolyi) will secure all necessary permits for exploration and, if development is warranted on the property, will file final plans of operation before we start any mining operations. At this point, a permit from the BLM would be required. Also, we would be required to comply with the laws of the state of Nevada and federal regulations. We anticipate no discharge of water into active stream, creek, river, lake or any other body of water regulated by environmental law or regulation. No endangered species will be disturbed. Restoration of the disturbed land will be completed according to law. All holes, pits and shafts will be sealed upon abandonment of the property. It is difficult to estimate the cost of compliance with the environmental law since the full nature and extent of our proposed activities cannot be determined until we start our operations and know what that will involve from an environmental standpoint.

Exploration stage companies have no need to discuss environmental matters, except as they relate to exploration activities. The only "cost and effect" of compliance with environmental regulations in the State of Nevada is returning the surface to its previous condition upon abandonment of the property. We will only be using "non-intrusive" exploration techniques and will not leave any indication that a sample was taken from the area. Gold Explorations LLC and its employees will be required to leave the area in the same condition as they found it.

Subcontractors

We intend to use the services of Gold Explorations LLC, who will supervise the subcontractors for exploration work on our properties.

Employees and Employment Agreements

At present, we have no full-time employees. Our three officers and directors are part-time employees and each will devote about 10% - 25% of their time or four to 10 hours per week to our operation. Our officers and directors do not have employment agreements with us. We presently do not have pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future. There are presently no personal benefits available to our officers and directors. Our officers and directors will handle our administrative duties. Because our officers and directors are inexperienced with exploration, they will hire qualified persons to perform the surveying, exploration, and excavating of the property. The Company has had preliminary discussions with Gold Explorations, LLC of Minden, NV concerning the exploration work and plan to enter into an agreement with them to manage our exploration project once we receive funding.

27


MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

This section of the prospectus includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this prospectus. These forward-looking states are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or out predictions.

Plan of Operation

We are a start-up, exploration stage corporation and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we begin removing and selling minerals. There is no assurance we will ever reach this point. Accordingly, we must raise cash from sources other than the sale of minerals found on the property. That cash must be raised from other sources. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others. We must raise cash to implement our project and stay in business. If we raise the amount of money in this offering, we believe it, together with the purchase of shares by the directors ($30,000 in share purchase) will last a minimum of twelve months.

We will be conducting research in the form of exploration of the property. Our exploration program is explained in as much detail as possible in the business section of this prospectus. We are not going to buy or sell any plant or significant equipment during the next twelve months.

The property is located in Esmeralda County, Nevada and is called the "MRP Claims."

Our exploration target is to find an ore body containing gold. Our success depends upon finding mineralized material. This includes a determination by our consultant if the property contains reserves. We have not selected a consultant as of the date of this prospectus and will not do so until our offering is successfully completed, if that occurs, of which there is no assurance. Mineralized material is a mineralized body, which has been delineated by appropriate spaced drilling or underground sampling to support sufficient tonnage and average grade of metals to justify removal. If we don't find mineralized material or we cannot remove mineralized material, either because we do not have the money to do it or because it is not economically feasible to do it, we will cease operations and you will lose your investment.

In addition, we may not have enough money to complete our exploration of the property. If it turns out that we have not raised enough money to complete our exploration program, we will try to raise additional funds from a second public offering, a private placement or loans. At the present time,

28


we have not made any plans to raise additional money and there is no assurance that we would be able to raise additional money in the future. If we need additional money and can't raise it, we will have to suspend or cease operations.

We must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our properties and if any minerals which are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.

The property is undeveloped raw land. Exploration and surveying has not been initiated and will not be initiated until we raise money in this offering. That is because we do not have money to start exploration. Once the offering is concluded, we intend to start exploration operations. To our knowledge, except as noted herein, the property has never been mined. The only event that has occurred is the locating and the recording of the lode mining claims under the direction of Gold Explorations LLC.

Before mineral retrieval can begin, we must explore for and find mineralized material. After that has occurred we have to determine if it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material. Economically feasible means that the costs associated with the removal of the mineralized material will not exceed the price at which we can sell the mineralized material. We can't predict what that will be until we find mineralized material.

We do not know if we will find mineralized material. We believe that activities occurring on adjoining properties are not material to our activities. The reason is that whatever is located under adjoining property may or may not be located under the property.

We do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever at this time on any of the property.

We intend to implement an exploration program which consists of a control grid which will have to be surveyed in tying the grid to a permanent brass cap survey point. The grid will cover (overlap) the known gold anomaly with lines spaced 300 feet apart and the sample stations on 100 foot spacing or 50- foot as conditions allow or warrant. Approximately 350 soil samples will be collected at these stations and GPS coordinates noted. Approximately 25 rock chip samples will be taken from exposed outcrops and tied into the control grid. All samples will be boxed and shipped to Chemex Labs in Elko, Nevada for analysis. Gold and whichever anomalous gold pathfinder element will be plotted on 24" x 30" sheets. It is estimated the total time to complete the project is 30-40 days, including plotting the data. The objective of this work would be to determine if there is an economically recoverable gold resource that has been overlooked on this property. This initial phase of work will provide enough information to allow the company to decide whether or not to proceed to the next phase of exploration.

Based upon the results of the exploration Mr. Warman will determine, in consultation with our consultants, if the property is to be dropped or further exploration work done. Mr. Warman will not receive fees for his services. The proceeds from this offering are designed only to fund the costs of an exploration program recommended by Steve Karolyi. Additional funding will be required to take the property to a more advanced stage of exploration. We intend to ship our samples to Chemex Labs in Elko, Nevada.

We estimate the cost of the proposed work program to be $22,000. This is composed of $4,000 for surveying in the control grid, $4,000 for sample collecting approximately 375 samples, $2,000 for supervision, $1,000 for meals and lodging, $750 for truck expense, $750 for field supplies, $8,000 for shipping and assays, $500 for data plotting, $1,000 for contingency and $1,200 for office, mail couriers, and SEC filing costs. We estimate it will take up to 30 - 40 working days to complete the program. We will begin the program after the completion of the offering, weather permitting. If sufficient funds are raised, we will do additional exploration based upon the results of the first program

We do not intend to interest other companies in the property if we find mineralized materials. We intend to try to develop the reserves ourselves through the use of consultant. We have no plans to interest other companies in the property if we do not find mineralized material.

If we are unable to complete any phase of exploration because we don't have enough money, we will cease operations until we raise more money. If we can't or don't raise more money, we will cease operations. If we cease operations, we don't know what we will do and we don't have any plans to do anything.

We do not intend to hire additional employees at this time. All of the work on the property will be conducted by unaffiliated independent contractors that we will hire. The independent contractors will be responsible for surveying, geology, engineering, exploration, and excavation. The geologists will evaluate the information derived from the exploration and excavation and the engineers will advise us on the economic feasibility of removing the mineralized material.

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are an exploration stage corporation and have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services.

To become profitable and competitive, we must conduct the research and exploration of our properties before we start production of any minerals we may find. We are seeking equity financing to provide for the capital required to implement our research and exploration phases. We believe that the funds raised from this offering will allow us to operate for one year.

We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To meet our need for cash we are attempting to raise money from this offering. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to raise enough money through this offering to stay in business. Whatever money we do raise, will be applied to the items set forth in the Use of Proceeds section of this prospectus. If we find mineralized material and it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans. If we do not raise all of the money we need from this offering to complete our exploration of the property, we will have to find alternative sources, like a second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our officers or others.

30


We have discussed this matter with our officers and directors and Mr. Warman has agreed to advance funds as needed until the public offering is completed or failed and has agreed to pay the cost of reclamation of the property should mineralized material not be found thereon. At the present time, we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash, other than through this offering. If we need additional cash and can't raise it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. The funds raised in this offering, together with the loans advanced, will allow the company to operate for a minimum of one year. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.

We acquired one property containing 20 claims. The property is staked and we expect to start exploration operations after completion of this offering, weather permitting. As of the date of this prospectus we have yet to begin operations and therefore we have yet to generate any revenues.

Since inception we have issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 in September 2005. The purchase price of the shares was $30,000. This was accounted for as an acquisition of shares.

As of June 30, 2006, our total assets were $18,813 and our total liabilities were $1,500.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company's corporate offices are located at 11923 S.W. 37 Terrace, Miami FL 33175. We pay $200.00 rent per month for approximately 160 sq. feet of office space. We have no other property at this time. However, we intend to conduct exploration activities on one property. Record title to the property upon which we intend to conduct exploration activities is not held in our name. The property is owned by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The right to mine the claims has been obtained by Gold Explorations LLC of Minden, Nevada. Mariposa entered into an option agreement to purchase the claims through a five year payment program totaling $53,000 USD and a five year work program totaling $50,000 USD. We intend to conduct exploration activities on the MRP Claims located in Esmeralda County, Nevada. The one property consists of twenty lode mining claims. We intend to explore for gold on the property.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

There are no other stock option plans, retirement, pension, or profit sharing plans for the benefit of our officers and directors other than as described herein.

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards

We not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance.

Compensation of Directors

Our directors do not receive any compensation for serving as members of the board of directors.

As of the date hereof, we have not entered into employment contracts with any of our officers and do not intend to enter into any employment contracts until such time as it profitable to do so.

Indemnification

Under our Bylaws, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.

Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Future Sales by Existing Stockholders

A total of 3,000,000 shares of common stock were issued to our officers and directors in June and July 2006. The 3,000,000 shares are restricted securities, as defined in Rule 144 of the Rules and Regulations of the SEC promulgated under the Securities Act. Under Rule 144, the shares can be publicly sold, subject to volume restrictions and restrictions on the manner of sale, commencing one year after their acquisition. Rule 144 provides that a person may not sell more than 1% of the total outstanding shares in any three month period and the sales must be sold either in a brokers' transaction or in a transaction directly with a market maker.

35


Shares purchased in this offering, which will be immediately resalable, and sales of all of our other shares after applicable restrictions expire, could have a depressive effect on the market price, if any, of our common stock and the shares we are offering.

A total of 3,000,000 shares of our stock are currently owned by our officers and directors. They will likely sell a portion of their stock if the market price goes above $0.01. If they do sell their stock into the market, the sales may cause the market price of the stock to drop.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

Common Stock

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, .001 par value per share and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, .001 par value per share. The holders of our common stock:

*

have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available if and when declared by our board of directors;

*

are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs;

*

do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights; and

*

are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote.

Non-cumulative Voting

Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors. After this offering is completed, present stockholders will own 60% of our outstanding shares assuming that the entire 2,000,000 shares are subscribed.

Cash Dividends

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not paid any cash dividends to stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

There are no Nevada anti-takeover provisions that may have the affect of delaying or preventing a change in control. 78.378 through 78.3793 of the Nevada Revised Statutes relates to control share acquisitions that may delay to make more difficult acquisitions or changes in our control,

36


however, they only apply when we have 200 or more stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom have addresses in the state of Nevada appearing on our stock ledger and we do business in this state directly or through an affiliated corporation. Neither of the foregoing events seems likely will occur. Currently, we have no Nevada shareholders and since this offering will not be made in the state of Nevada, no shares will be sold to Nevada residents. Accordingly, there are no anti-takeover provisions that have the affect of delaying or preventing a change in our control.

Reports

After we complete this offering, we will not be required to furnish you with an annual report. Further, we will not voluntarily send you an annual report. We will be required to file reports with the SEC under section 15(d) of the Securities Act. The reports will be filed electronically. The reports we will be required to file are Forms 10-KSB, 10-QSB, and 8-K. You may read copies of any materials we file with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, D.C. 20549. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC also maintains an Internet site that will contain copies of the reports we file electronically. The address for the Internet site is www.sec.gov.

Stock Transfer Agent

As of yet we have not hired a stock transfer agent. We expect to do so after we have sold the minimum amount of the offering.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

On June 6, 2006, Nanuk Warman, our president, acquired 2,000,000 shares of our common stock, for cash proceeds of $20,000. On July 1, 2006, Rossanna Vivo and Douglas Scheving acquired 500,000 shares each of our common stock, for cash proceeds of $5,000 each. The 3,000,000 shares of common stock are restricted securities, as defined in Rule 144 of the Rules and Regulations of the SEC promulgated under the Securities Act. Under Rule 144, the shares can be publicly sold, subject to volume restrictions and restrictions on the manner of sale, commencing one year after their acquisition. Rule 144 provides that a person may not sell more than 1% of the total outstanding shares in any three month period and the sales must be sold either in a brokers' transaction or in a transaction directly with a market maker.

Our officers and directors are our only promoters. They have not received nor will they receive anything of value from us, directly or indirectly in their capacities as promoters.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

No public market currently exists for shares of our common stock. Following completion of this offering, we intend to contact a market maker to file an application on our behalf to have our common stock listed for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board.

LITIGATION

We are not a party to any pending litigation and none is contemplated or threatened.

Mariposa Resources, Ltd (An Exploration Stage Company) Las Vegas, Nevada

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Mariposa Resources, Ltd (An Exploration Stage Company) as of June 30, 2006, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows from inception May 31, 2006 through June 30, 2006 and the period then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Mariposa Resources, Ltd (An Exploration Stage Company) as of June 30, 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows from inception May 31, 2006 through June 30, 2006 and the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company's net losses and accumulated deficit of $2,687 as of June 30, 2006 which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

g. Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

In accordance with SFAS No. 128-"Earnings Per Share", the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. At June 30, 2006, the Company has no stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and excluded in the earnings per share computation.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has accumulated a loss and is new. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $2,687 for the period from May 31, 2006 (inception) to June 30, 2006 and has not generated any revenues. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of acquisitions. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence .

PART II. INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

The only statute, charter provision, bylaw, contract, or other arrangement under which any controlling person, director or officer of the registrant is insured or indemnified in any manner against any liability which he may incur in his capacity as such, is as follows:

1. Article IX of the Bylaws of our company, filed as Exhibit 3.2 to the registration statement.

2. Nevada Revised Statutes, Chapter 78.

The general effect of the foregoing is to indemnify a control person, officer or director from liability, thereby making the company responsible for any expenses or damages incurred by such control person, officer or director in any action brought against them based on their conduct in such capacity, provided they did not engage in fraud or criminal activity.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons against liability under the Act, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

 

ITEM 25. OTHER EXPENSES OF ISSUANCE AND DISTRIBUTION.

The estimated expenses of the offering all of which are to be paid by the registrant, are as follows:

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

a. To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

b. To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;

c. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any change to such information in the registration statement.

2. That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

3. To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

ADDITIONAL ARTICLES

Section 1.   Capital Stock.

 

The aggregate number of shares that the Corporation will have authority to issue is Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) of which One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares will be common stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share, and One Hundred Million (100,000,000) shares will be preferred stock, with a par value of $0.001 per share.

The Preferred Stock may be divided into and issued in series. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is authorized to divide the authorized shares of Preferred Stock into one or more series, each of which shall be so designated as to distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series and classes. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is authorized, within any limitations prescribed by law and this Article, to fix and determine the designations, rights, qualifications, preferences, limitations and terms of the shares of any series of Preferred Stock including but not limited to the following:

a. The rate of dividend, the time of payment of dividends, whether dividends are cumulative, and the date from which any dividends shall accrue;

b. Whether shares may be redeemed, and, if so, the redemption price and the terms and conditions of redemption;

c. The amount payable upon shares in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation;

d. Sinking fund or other provisions, if any, for the redemption or purchase of shares;

e. The terms and conditions on which shares may be converted, if the shares of any series are issued with the privilege of conversion;

f. Voting powers, if any, provided that if any of the Preferred Stock or series thereof shall have voting rights, such Preferred Stock or series shall vote only on a share for share basis with the Common Stock on any matter, including but not limited to the election of directors, for which such Preferred Stock or series has such rights; and,

g. Subject to the foregoing, such other terms, qualifications, privileges, limitations, options, restrictions, and special or relative rights and preferences, if any, of shares or such series as the Board of Directors of the Corporation may, at the time so acting, lawfully fix and determine under the laws of the State of Nevada.

The Corporation shall not declare, pay or set apart for payment any dividend or other distribution (unless payable solely in shares of Common Stock or other class of stock junior to the Preferred Stock as to dividends or upon liquidation) in respect of Common Stock, or other class of stock junior the Preferred Stock, nor shall it redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any of the foregoing, unless dividends, if any, payable to holders of Preferred Stock for the current period (and in the case of cumulative dividends, if any payable to holder of Preferred Stock for the current period and in the case of cumulative dividends, if any for all past periods) have been paid, are being paid or have been set aside for payments, in accordance with the terms of the Preferred Stock, as fixed by the Board of Directors.

In the event of the liquidation of the Corporation, holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, before any payment or distribution on the Common Stock or any other class of stock junior to the Preferred Stock upon liquidation, a distribution per share in the amount of the liquidation preference, if any, fixed or determined in accordance with the terms of such Preferred Stock plus, if so provided in such terms, an amount per share equal to accumulated and unpaid dividends in respect of such Preferred Stock (whether or not earned or declared) to the date of such distribution. Neither the sale, lease or exchange of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Corporation, nor any consolidation or merger of the Corporation, shall be deemed to be a liquidation for the purposes of this Article.

 

Section 2.   Acquisition of Controlling Interest.

 

The Corporation elects not to be governed by NRS 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive.

 

Section 3.   Combinations with Interest Stockholders.

 

The Corporation elects not to be governed by NRS 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive.

 

Section 4.   Liability.

 

To the fullest extent permitted by NRS 78, a director or officer of the Corporation will not be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, provided that this article will not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer for:

a. acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law; or

b. the payment of distributions in violation of NRS 78.300, as amended.

Any amendment or repeal of this Section 4 will not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Corporation existing immediately prior to such amendment or repeal.

 

Section 5.   Indemnification.

a. Right to Indemnification.   The Corporation will indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any person (the "Indemnitee") made or threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed by action or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (whether or not by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director of the Corporation or is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity at the request of the Corporation or any predecessor of the Corporation against judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid in settlement and costs, charges and expenses (including attorney's fees and disbursemtns) that he or she incurs in connection with such action or proceeding.

b. Inurement.   The right to indemnification will inure whether or not the claim asserted is based on matters that predate the adoption of this Section 5, will continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to hold the position by virtue of which he or she was entitled to indemnification, and will inure to the benefit of his or her heirs and personal representatives.  

c. Non-exclusivity of Rights.   The rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred by this Section 5 are not exclusive of any other rights that an Indemenitee may have or acquire under any statue, bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, the Certificate of Incorporation or otherwise

d. Other Sources.   The Corporation's obligation, if any, to indemnify or to advance expenses to any Indemnitee who was or is serving at the request as a director, officer employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or other entity will be reduced by any amount such Indemnitee may collect as indemnification or advancement or expenses from such other entity.

e. Advancement of Expenses. The Corporation will, from time to time, reimburse or advance to any Indemnitee the funds necessary for payment of expenses, including attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred in connection with defending any proceeding from which he or she is indemnified by the Corporation, in advance of the final disposition of such proceeding; provided that the Corporation has received the undertaking of such director or officer to repay any such amount so advanced if it is ultimately determined by a final and unappealable judicial decision that the director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses.

.01   Indemnification.

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgment, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and with respect to any criminal action proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that such person's conduct was unlawful.

.02   Derivative Action

The Corporation shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in the Corporation's favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorney's fees) and amount paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to amounts paid in settlement, the settlement of the suit or action was in the best interests of the Corporation; provided, however, that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of such person's duty to the Corporation unless and only to the extent that, the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as such court shall deem proper. The termination of any action or suit by judgment or settlement shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation.

.03   Successful Defense.

To the extent that a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or Agent of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise, in whole or in part in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Paragraphs .01 and .02 above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

 

 

.04   Authorization.

Any indemnification under Paragraphs .01 and .02 above (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in Paragraphs .01 and .02 above. Such determination shall be made (a) by the Board of Directors of the Corporation by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (b) is such a quorum is not obtainable, by a majority vote of the Directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, or (c) by independent legal counsel (selected by one or more of the Directors, whether or not a quorum and whether or not disinterested) in a written opinion, or (d) by the Shareholders. Anyone making such a determination under this Paragraph .04 may determine that a person has met the standards therein set forth as to some claims, issues or matters but not as to others, and may reasonably prorate amounts to be paid as indemnification.

.05   Advances.

Expenses incurred in defending civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding shall be paid by the Corporation, at any time or from time to time in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding as authorized in the manner provided in Paragraph .04 above upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent to repay such amount unless it shall ultimately be by the Corporation is authorized in this Section.

.06   Nonexclusivity.

The indemnification provided in this Section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be entitled under any law, bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested Directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.

.07   Insurance.

The Corporation shall have the power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against any liability assessed against such person in any such capacity or arising out of such person's status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability.

.08   "Corporation" Defined.

For purposes of this Section, references to the "Corporation" shall include, in addition to the Corporation, an constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had the power and authority to indemnify its Directors, Trustees, Officers, employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation or of any entity a majority of the voting stock of which is owned by such constituent corporation or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a Director, Trustee, Officer, employee or agent of the corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Section with respect to the resulting or surviving Corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

XI.   FISCAL YEAR.

The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be set by resolution of the Board of Directors.

 

 

 

XII.   RULES OF ORDER.

The rules contained in the most recent edition of Robert's Rules or Order, Newly Revised, shall govern all meetings of shareholders and Directors where those rules are not inconsistent with the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, or special rules or order of the Corporation.

 

XIII.   REIMBURSEMENT OF DISALLOWED EXPENSES.

If any salary, payment, reimbursement, employee fringe benefit, expense allowance payment, or other expense incurred by the Corporation for the benefit of an employee is disallowed in whole or in part as a deductible expense of the Corporation for Federal Income Tax purposes, the employee shall reimburse the Corporation, upon notice and demand, to the full extent of the disallowance. This legally enforceable obligation is in accordance with the provisions of Revenue Ruling 69-115, 1969-1 C.B. 50, and is for the purpose of entitling such employee to a business expense deduction for the taxable year in which the repayment is made to the Corporation. In this manner, the Corporation shall be protected from having to bear the entire burden of disallowed expense items.
