Although satisfied in August 2010, a judgment was previously entered against Dr. Henson, SSA of Wichita, Inc. and SSA, Inc. (the “Defendants”), jointly and severally for actual damages in the aggregate amount of approximately $2,100,270, and punitive damages in the amount of $1,000,000.  A brief summary of the allegations in the suit, which included claims of breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, conversion and unjust enrichment claims, among others, follows:


Plaintiffs and Defendants created a “joint venture or partnership” in 2002 to provide certain services to an area hospital.  Defendants were to collect and divide any revenue generated therefrom amongst the parties.  The parties agreed that Defendants would acquire a loan from the hospital to compensate the parties for their services until the provision of services to the hospital generated enough revenue to provide compensation.  The parties agreed any revenues first received should be used to repay the hospital loan.  In 2007, the hospital opted to cease using the services provided by the “joint venture.”  Defendants were and continued receiving accounts receivable for services provided within the last few months prior to the cessation of the services agreement by the “joint ventures.”  Defendants were evasive to any inquiries regarding the alleged accounts receivables, how to dissolve the “joint venture,” and with regard to the distribution of any such revenue.  Further, Defendants refused to provide an accounting of the “joint venture” to the members.  Dr. Henson “believed each of the parties to be independent contractors of SSA, Inc.”, and that “he and his wife, as SSA shareholders, were entitled to any and all profit generated.”

Legal Proceedings .


No director, officer, affiliate, owner of record, beneficial shareholder, director, officer or shareholder of any class of voting securities of the Company is engaged as an adverse party in any material proceedings against us, as set forth in Item 401of Regulation S-K, or has a material interest adverse to the Company.  The same is true for the New Directors.  


On June 7, 2012, several former shareholders (including our CEO, Dr. Henson, although not in that capacity) of Sun River Energy, Inc. (“Sun River”) filed a derivative action against Sun River and its management in a case now styled Colin Richardson, et al., derivatively on behalf of Sun River Energy, Inc. v. Sun River Energy, Inc. v. Donal R. Schmidt, Jr., et al., Cause No. DC-12-06318, in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas.  On January 24, 2013, the Court found the Plaintiffs in the case had shown a probable right to the relief sought at final hearing and a likelihood of success on the claims of breach of fiduciary duty, fraudulent transfer and certain defamation claims, and entered a temporary injunction against Sun River and its management.  The temporary injunction prevents Sun River, and all officers, directors, agents, servants, attorneys, employees, and all those in active concert or participation, from any performance, claims of default, payments, transfer or other actions with respect to certain Notes and Mortgages; any payments on those Notes based on alleged past due compensation; entry into contracts by Donal R. Schmidt, Jr. to lease, purchase, or sell Sun River’s interest in its hard rock minerals, coal, oil, timber, gas and or other minerals, and any and all issuances of stock or any other compensation, payments, bonuses, gifts or other transfers outside of normal payment activity. On February 7, 2013, Defendants Schmidt et al. filed an Amended Answer, Special Exception, Counterclaim and Original Third Party Petition that asserts claims against the Company for breach contract, breach of fiduciary duty, misappropriation of confidential information, conversion, constructive trust and conspiracy and places some of the blame for these alleged actions on Dr. Henson. Both Rangeford and Dr. Henson believe the claims are completely without merit and will defend their respective positions vigorously.


Related Party Transactions


Other than the relationships and transactions discussed below, we are not a party to, nor are we proposed to be a party, to any transaction since the beginning of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 involving an amount that exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years and in which a related person, as such term is defined by Item 404 of Regulation S-K, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Currently, our corporate secretary, who also owns approximately 3% of our common stock, provides us with various office services for which she does not receive any compensation.

We received loans from two of our shareholders totaling $22,555 from inception to March 31, 2012 for the purposes of funding start up operations. This includes $7,060 and $2,000 received during the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. These loans are non-interest bearing and are due on demand.

On July 5, 2012, we, Orphan Holdings of Texas, Inc. (“Orphan Holdings”), its majority shareholder, and RF Colorado Ventures, LLC (“RF Colorado”) executed a Share Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which RF Colorado purchased 9,900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Orphan Holdings for a total purchase price of $300,000, to be paid by RF Colorado. Our current CEO, Dr. Steven R. Henson is the managing member of RF Colorado.  Upon Closing of the purchase, RF Colorado became our majority and controlling shareholder ("Change in Control Transaction") 2 .  The Agreement also provided that our prior sole officer & director, Mr. Frederick Zeigler would resign and that nominees of RF Colorado - Dr. Henson and Mr.  Hadley were to be appointed to our Board of Directors and as the Company’s management.  Further, Dr. Henson and Mr. Farmer each maintain a 10.7% and 9.9% ownership interest, respectively, in RF Colorado.  

In November 2012, we entered into promissory note with one of our directors - Mr. Hadley, totaling $100,000 in exchange for cash of $100,000. The note had a term of 60 days from issuance and accrues interest at a rate of 6% per annum. In addition, Mr. Hadley was issued a total of 250,000 shares of restricted common stock in connection with the promissory note. As of the date of this Schedule, the note remains unpaid and due and owing; however, Mr. Hadley verbally agreed to forego any repayment until such time as the Company experiences more positive cash flow.

The Company believes, although the annual amount received pursuant to the associated agreement hereinafter discussed, may not exceed the required thresholds, INTREOrg Systems, Inc. ("INTREOrg") is a related party.  On December 31, 2012, we entered into a Master Services Agreement with INTREOrg pursuant to which INTREOrg will provide services relating to the PISA software to us for an annual fee of $30,000.  The term of the Agreement is one year, and thereafter the agreement renews automatically and remains “evergreen” for succeeding one year terms, unless terminated according to the termination provisions contained in the agreement.  Our President, Dr. Henson serves as INTREOrg's CEO and President and is also a director of INTREOrg.  Mr. Farmer, one of the New Directors, is also a director of INTREOrg.

(“GNE”) to acquire a substantial non-operating working interest in oil assets in East Texas in consideration for a purchase price that includes (a) a cash payment of $3,900,000 in the form of (i) a deposit of $100,000; (ii) a promissory note in the amount of $1,100,000; and (iii) a promissory note in the amount of $2,700,000 and (b) 6,500,000 shares of its restricted common stock.  As of December 31, 2012, we transferred a total of $600,000 to GNE towards the purchase of the oil and gas properties, but the agreement had not been consummated.  We put forth a Letter of Addendum (the “Addendum”), dated January 25, 2013 to GNE, which modifies certain terms of the Agreement, including increasing the total amount of shares due under the Agreement to 7,400,000 (the "Agreement Shares").   The Board of Directors approved the Addendum and the transactions contemplated thereby via unanimous written consent on January 30, 2013, with an effective date of February 5, 2013.  The Addendum was executed on January 30, 2013 and we issued the Agreement Shares to GNE.  However, we have not yet made the payments required as of the date of this Schedule under the Addendum.  The parties continue to negotiate the terms of the transaction with GNE and therefore there can be no assurance that the acquisition contemplated by the Agreement will occur.


CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Independence


We do not have any independent directors at this time. As we are currently listed on the OTCQB, we do not have any director independence requirements.


Board Meetings and Committees; Annual Meeting Attendance


During fiscal year 2012, the Board of Directors held three telephonic board meetings, but all actions discussed at such meetings were ultimately taken and approved via unanimous written consent.  No director attended fewer than 75% in the aggregate of the total number of board meetings held.


Due to our lack of operations and size, we do not have an Audit Committee. Furthermore, since we are listed on the OTCQB, we are not subject to any listing requirements mandating the establishment of any particular committees.  For these same reasons, we did not have any other separate committees during fiscal 2012; all functions of a nominating committee, audit committee and compensation committee were performed by our whole board of directors.  Our board of directors intends to appoint such persons and form such committees as are required to meet the corporate governance requirements imposed by the national securities exchanges as necessary. Therefore, we intend that a majority of our directors will eventually be independent directors and at least one director will qualify as an “audit committee financial expert.”

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Mr. Ziegler was our sole executive officer during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 and he resigned from all of his positions with us as of December 3, 2012. We did not maintain any employment agreements with Mr. Ziegler during the fiscal year ended March, 31, 2012.  However, on August 1, 2012, we entered into a Corporate Officer/Director/Consultant Engagement Agreement with Mr. Ziegler pursuant to which we agreed to pay Mr. Ziegler $2,000 per month, starting September 1, 2012, for such services he provided to us.  Accordingly, as of the date of his resignation, we owed him $10,000.  



11




On August 1, 2012, we also appointed John C. Miller as our Chief Financial Officer  and E. Robert Gates as our Vice President of Mergers and Acquisitions. Pursuant to each of his respective Corporate Officer/Consulting Engagement Agreement, we paid each of Mr. Miller and Mr. Gates $7,000 per month for their services. As additional compensation for their services, we agreed to issue each of Mr. Miller and Mr. Gates: (i) $5,000 in shares of our common stock, (ii) an initial retainer of 20,000 shares of our common stock, and (iii) options to purchase up to 300,000 shares of our common stock, of which 100,000 shares were purchasable at $1.00 per share and 200,000 shares of which were purchasable at $3.00 per share. On December 3, 2012, Mr. Miller and Mr. Gates each resigned from their respective positions with the Company.  Accordingly, each of Mr. Miller and Mr. Gates received an aggregate of $28,000 and $5,000 worth of our shares, but all such shares have been returned to the Company following the resignations; additionally, each of their options became void since they were to fully vest one year after issuance.

On December 3, 2012, we appointed Steven R. Henson as our President. Pursuant to the terms of the Corporate Officer Consulting Engagement Agreement, Mr. Henson shall receive an annual fee of $120,000.00 for his consulting services which include creating and implementing corporate strategy, and regulatory compliance regarding the reporting and governance of a publicly traded company.  In light of our cash position, Dr. Henson agreed that he shall not receive the cash compensation until such time as we are more cash flow positive, provided that if such funds are not available for 12 months following the date of the agreement, he shall accept the annual fee in options to purchase an amount of shares of our common stock equal to the amount owed to him, with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the our common stock on the last business day per month for the 12-month period considered.  We also entered into a Director agreement with Dr. Henson, pursuant to which he is eligible to receive additional compensation.  (See, "Director Compensation")

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION


Pursuant to our Bylaws, Directors do not receive any stated salary for their services, but by resolution of the Board a fixed sum and expense of attendance, if any, may be allowed for attendance at each regular and special meeting of the Board.  However, directors are not precluded from serving the corporation in any other capacity and receiving compensation therefor.  


Mr. Ziegler, our sole director, resigned on December 3, 2012; he did not receive any compensation for his services as a director during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 or March 31, 2012.  However, as disclosed above, we did have an agreement with Mr. Ziegler, pursuant to which we agreed to pay him $2,000 for his services, including those as a director, to us.  


On August 7, 2012, Mr. Ziegler appointed Mr. Kevin Carreno to the Board of Directors. We entered into a Board of Directors Agreement with Mr. Carreno on August 9, 2012, pursuant to which we agreed to pay him $2,000 per month in addition to an initial retainer of 20,000 shares of our common stock and options to purchase up to 300,000 shares of our common stock, of which 100,000 shares are purchasable at $1.00 per share and of which 200,000 shares are purchasable at $3.00 per share. The options have a term of 3 years and vest at a rate of 25% per quarter starting November 1, 2012 and shall be exercisable on the one year anniversary of the agreement. On September 27, 2012, Mr. Carreno resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company.  As part of his resignation, Mr. Carreno waived his rights to receive the options.  


On December 3, 2012, Dr. Henson - our current President - was appointed as one of our directors.  As part of his appointment as a Director, Dr. Henson entered into a Board of Directors Agreement, which provides for Dr. Henson to be paid an annual director’s fee of $24,000, which shall be paid in increments of $2,000 a month or as otherwise in compliance with our established pay practices.  In light of our cash position, Henson agreed that he shall not receive the cash compensation until  such time as we are more cash flow positive, provided that if such funds are not available for 12 months following the date of the agreement, he shall accept the annual fee in options to purchase an amount of shares of our common stock equal to the amount owed to him, with an exercise price equal to the closing price of our common stock on the last business day per month for the 12-month period considered.  Such options shall vest at the rate of 25% per quarter.



12



On November 15, 2012, the Board of Directors appointed Mr. Hadley as a director.  As part of his appointment, Mr. Hadley has entered into a Board of Directors Agreement, which provides for Mr. Hadley to be issued 200,000 shares of our common stock for his engagement as a Director. His agreement also entitles him to an annual fee of $50,000 payable on a quarterly basis. (See "Related Transactions" above regarding a promissory note we entered into with Mr. Hadley and related share issuance)

New Directors

Following the Effective Date of this Schedule, we intend to enter into similar director agreements with the New Directors with the following anticipated terms.  We anticipate that each New Director will receive an annual director’s fee of $24,000, which shall be paid in increments of $2,000 a month or as otherwise in compliance with our established pay practices.  

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of any class of our securities registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms we received, we believe that during the year ended March 31, 2012, all such filing requirements applicable to our Company were complied with, except that reports were filed late by the following persons:

*Mr. Ziegler did not file a Form 3 upon his appointment as our sole officer and director.  Prior to the Change in Control Transaction, Mr. Ziegler and his affiliates owned an aggregate of approximately 2,550,000 shares of our common stock, all of which were transferred to Orphan Holdings pursuant to the Change in Control Transaction; Mr. Ziegler did not file any Section 16(a) forms regarding such shares.   As stated elsewhere in this Schedule and as set forth in the Company's public filings, Mr. Ziegler resigned from all of his positions with the Company.  

Based solely on our  review of the copies of such forms we received, we believe that Mssrs. Henson and Hadley filed the required reports.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Rangeford’s officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes and the Articles of Incorporation.

Under the Nevada Revised Statutes, a corporation may indemnify a director against any expenses reasonably incurred, paid in settlement, or  in the case of a suit by or in the right of the corporation, any amounts in connection with the defense of the action, provided that the director is not liable and has acted in good faith in a manner which he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Such discretionary indemnification may be made by the corporation only as authorized (a) by the stockholders, (b) by the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding; (c) if a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding so orders, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or (d) if a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding cannot be obtained, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

Where a director has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of the aforementioned actions, the corporation shall indemnify him or her against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense



13



The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that it will indemnify the directors to the fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law and that such right shall be a contract right which may be enforced in any manner. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation further provide it will advance the expenses incurred by any officer or director in defending a civil suit  or proceeding, prior to the final disposition of the action, suit or proceeding, provided that the Company is in receipt of an undertaking setting forth that the director or officer repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.                                    

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON

ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


On February 4, 2013, we engaged Chapman, Hext & Co., P.C. ("Champan") as our principal accountant to audit our financial statements. During our two most recent fiscal years and through December 31, 2012, we have not consulted with Champan regarding the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, nor did Champan provide advice to us, either written or oral, that was an important factor we considered in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue.


Further, during our two most recent fiscal years or through December 31, 2012, we have not consulted the entity of Champan on any matter that was the subject of a disagreement as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1) (iv) of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event.

On January 4, 2013, LBB & Associates, Ltd., LLP. (“LBB”) resigned as our independent registered public accounting firm. On the same date, the Board of directors approved the change in accountants by accepting the resignation of LBB and commencing the process of selecting an independent registered public accounting firm to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm.  

LBB was not involved with the Company’s most recent fiscal year ended March 31, 2012, nor its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.   LBB has filed no reports on the Company’s financial statements.

During the time of LBB's engagement as our independent registered public accounting firm and through January 4, 2013, the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with LBB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which if not resolved to LBB's satisfaction would have caused it to make reference thereto in connection with its reports on our financial statements. During the time of LBB's engagement as our independent registered public accounting firm and through January 31, 2013 (the date the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K/A regarding the resignation), there were no reportable events of the type described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

On December 4, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors engaged LBB, whose address is 2500 Wilcrest, Suite 150, Houston, TX 77042, to serve as the Company’s new independent registered public accountant.  The engagement was made effective December 1, 2012.

Prior to engaging LBB, the Company had not consulted LBB regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, completed or proposed, the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements or a reportable event, nor did the Company consult with LBB regarding any disagreements with its prior auditor on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the prior auditor, would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports.



14




On December 4, 2012, our Board of Directors terminated the client auditor-relationship between the Company and Sam Kan & Company (“Sam Kan”); they were appointed in February 2010. In connection with audit of fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and the cumulative period of April 1, 2012 through September 30, 2012 and through the date of termination of the accountants, no disagreements exist with the former independent registered public accountant on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, internal control assessment, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the former accountant would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in their report.


The audit reports from Sam Kan for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2011 and 2012, contained an opinion which included a paragraph discussing uncertainties related to continuation of the Company as a going concern and did not include an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion or were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.  


AMENDING AND RESTATING THE BYLAWS


Following the Change in Control Transaction with Orphan Holdings, its majority shareholder, and RF Colorado, management examined our bylaws and determined that they are archaic and not in line with current corporate laws and practices.  Management believes that the Amended and Restated Bylaws will provide more flexibility to our board and shareholders to better enable them to conduct corporate actions.  

In light of the confusing provisions contained in our current Bylaws regarding how to change the number of authorized directors, as per the Written Consent, following the Effective Date, we shall file an Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with Nevada's Secretary of State to change the authorized number of directors as set forth below.  

Below is a brief description of the key changes between our current Bylaws and the Amended and Restated Bylaws (the "New Bylaws"), which are attached as Exhibit B to this Schedule.  The following description is only a summary of the terms we deem most significant to our shareholders and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the New Bylaws.  

Increase in Number of Directors.


Our current Bylaws authorize three (3) directors and also seem inconsistent as to how to change the number of authorized directors.  We believe it will provide more flexibility for our bylaws to provide for a range in the number of authorized directors.  To address these concerns, the New Bylaws provide that the number of directors may from time to time be increased or decreased to any odd number not less than one(1) nor more than ten (10) by action of the Board of Directors.


Shareholder Voting Requirements

Our current Bylaws require a plurality of the votes cast, and allow shareholders to cumulate their votes, for the election of directors whereby the candidates receiving the highest number of votes up to the number of Directors shall be elected.  We believe that a majority vote better represents our shareholders and therefore our New Bylaws shall require that all questions and votes, including the election of directors, put forth to our shareholders shall be approved by a majority vote.  

The new majority requirement means that more than 50% of the voters voted for the person or issue in question. This is different from the current requirement of plurality, pursuant to which less than 50% voted for the successful person or issue, but that person or issue received more votes than any other person or issue.   We believe this change is in line with our efforts to make our bylaws more current and flexible.



15




Annual Meeting Date


Our current Bylaws provide that our annual shareholder meeting shall be held at 12 pm on June 1 of each year.  We believe it would provide more flexibility if the bylaws did not set a specific time and date for our annual shareholder meetings.  Accordingly, the New Bylaws provide that the annual shareholder meeting shall be held at such place, either within or without the State of Nevada, and at such time and date as the Board of Directors, by resolution, shall determine and as set forth in the notice of the meeting.  


Director Compensation


Based on our current Bylaws, directors may not receive a stated salary for their services as a director (although they may receive fees for serving in other capacities).  Currently, directors may only receive a fixed sum and expenses for attendance at board meeting if the board of directors so resolve.  To attract and retain talented directors who can achieve our long-term strategic goals and help create shareholder value, and better align our director compensation policies with competitors, we believe it is important to allow directors to receive a salary for the services they provide to us.  Accordingly, our New Bylaws provide that directors may be paid their expenses of attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors and may be paid a fixed sum for attendance at each meeting of the Board of Directors or a stated salary as director.  


Special Shareholder Meetings


Currently, our Bylaws provide that special meetings of the Shareholders may be called at any time by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board, the President, a Vice President, the Secretary, or by one or more Shareholders holding not less than one-tenth (1/10) of the voting power of the corporation.  While we do not want to thwart our shareholders ability to hold special meetings for corporate purposes they deem important, it seems that requiring ownership of at least 25% of our outstanding shares is more in line with today's shareholders rights to call a special meeting.  We recognize that the ability to call special meetings enables shareholders to act on matters that arise between annual meetings (such as the removal of a director), but given our small size, limited cash resources and non-classified board, we believe its appropriate to further align these rights with current trends relating to this issue.  By increasing the right to 25%, we believe the Company is at less risk for having to burden the expense of a special meeting and of giving a minority stockholder the right to exert undue influence, while at the same time, maintaining our shareholders' right to call a special meeting.  


Directors may be removed with or without cause pursuant to written consent.  Since we have a declassified board, a board who ostensibly was elected by the shareholders to best achieve our short and long term goals, the ease with which one can call a special meeting and remove directors outside the annual meeting may limit our directors time to consider hostile takeover proposals and seek superior alternatives.  


For these reasons, we think it is in the best interests of the company and the long term interests of our shareholders to make this change.  The New Bylaws will also specify that no special meeting requests will be valid if it is received 90 days before the annual meeting or 90 days after a meeting at which a similar matter was on the agenda. Additionally, the New Bylaws will require that the 25% ownership is held of record and that such ownership shall not include any  short positions or other hedging of economic exposure to the shares; this is proposed to ensure the requesting shareholders’ economic stake in the company.  Finally, the New Bylaws shall provide that the ownership threshold required to call a special meeting may only be changed by including the new reduced threshold in an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation.  



16




Shareholder Action via Written Consent


Our Bylaws currently permit shareholders to take action by written consent, however it contains different and confusing notice requirements and different ownership levels for certain actions.  For instance, the current Bylaws seem to require that some actions can only be taken by written consent if authorized by a writing signed by all of the shareholders entitled to vote and that directors can only be elected via unanimous written consent.  The New Bylaws seek to streamline the provisions for shareholder action via written consent and align them with Nevada's state corporate laws.  Accordingly, the New Bylaws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if authorized by the written consent of stockholders holding at least a majority of the voting power, unless the provisions of the statutes, the Articles of Incorporation or the Bylaws require a greater proportion of voting power to authorize such action in which case such greater proportion of written consents shall be required.  The New Bylaws further provide that prompt notice of the taking of the corporate action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those stockholders who have not consented in writing.


Determination of Record Date


Nevada corporate law allows directors to select a period not exceeding 60 days before any meeting of the stockholders during which no transfer of stock on the books of the corporation may be made, or may fix, in advance, a record date not more than 60 or less than 10 days before the date of any such meeting as the date as of which stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at such meetings must be determined.  We believe this provides more flexibility than our current bylaw provisions, which limit the period to no more than 30 days preceding the subject act, and the new Bylaws reflect same.  


Annual Report


As we are now a reporting company that files annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC, we believe the requirement to send copies of our annual report to shareholders is outdated.  Accordingly, the New Bylaws do not contain such a provision.  


The 2012 Stock Option and Award Plan


Our Board of Directors unanimously approved the 2012 Stock Option and Award Plan (the “2012 Plan”) via unanimous written consent on August 28, 2012, subject to stockholder approval, which is required to occur on or before August 2013 to make the 2012 Plan effective. Our Board of Directors believe that the 2012 Plan is in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders. The following summary of certain features of the 2012 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual text of the 2012 Plan, which is attached as Exhibit C to this Schedule.  Following the Effective Date, our Board of Directors have the right to suspend or terminate the 2012 Plan at any time.  The 2012 Plan shall automatically terminate on the 10th anniversary of the effective date.


The 2012 Plan provides for the grant of restricted common stock, as well as other stock-based awards and other benefits to the types of employees, executive officers, consultants and directors who we believe will contribute to our long range success and to provide incentives which are linked directly to increases in share value which will inure to the benefit of all of our stockholders.  The purpose of the 2012 Plan is to enable us to attract and retain qualified persons as employees, officers and directors and others, whose services are required by us, and to motivate such persons by providing them with equity participation in us.


The 2012 Plan is administered by the Board or a Committee appointed by the board (the "Administrator") who shall have, subject to specified limitations, the full authority to grant equity awards and establish the terms and conditions for vesting and exercise thereof. Unless otherwise provided in the Stock Purchase Agreement, any right to acquire shares under the 2012 Plan (other than an Option) shall automatically expire if not exercised by the holder within 15 days after the grant of such right was communicated to the holder.  



17




Subject to certain adjustment due to stock splits, dividends, liquidation, merger, change in par value, Two Million (2,000,000) shares of Common Stock shall be reserved and available for issuance under the 2012 Plan.  If there is any change in the number of outstanding shares of Stock by reason of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination or reclassification, then (i) the number of shares of Stock available for Rights, (ii) the number of shares of Stock covered by outstanding Rights, and (iii) the Exercise Price or Purchase Price of any Stock Option or Purchase Right, in effect prior to such change, shall be proportionately adjusted by the 2012 Plan administrator to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Stock; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from the adjustment shall be eliminated.


Each Stock Option Agreement shall state the price at which shares subject to the Stock Option may be purchased (the "Exercise Price"), which shall, with respect to Incentive Stock Options, be not less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. In the case of Non-Qualified Stock Options, the Exercise Price shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

Stock Options and other stock purchase awards may grant the Company the right of first refusal that is exercisable in connection with any proposed sale, hypothecation or other disposition of such option or award.  The Company may also have repurchase rights with respect to an award after the termination of such award holders service with the company.  The potential right of first refusal and repurchase rights cease to exist if the Company's stock becomes publicly traded or are not permitted under applicable federal or state securities laws.

The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the 2012 Plan at any time and for any reason. At the time of such amendment, the Board shall determine, upon advice from counsel, whether such amendment will be contingent on stockholder approval.


Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code disallows a public company’s deductions for employee compensation exceeding $1,000,000 per year for the chief executive officer and the four other most highly compensated executive officers. Section 162(m) contains an exception for performance-based compensation that meets specific requirements. The 2012 Plan is intended to permit all options to qualify as performance-based compensation at the Administrator's discretion. If an award is to qualify as such, it shall clearly state so in the award agreement.


DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and because we desire to take advantage of, the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in this report and in any other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking  statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently  subject to significant  business,  economic and competitive uncertainties and  contingencies,  many of which are beyond our control and many of which,  with  respect to future  business  decisions,  are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on our behalf.  We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements.


The independent registered public accounting firm’s report on the Company’s financial statements for each of the two years ended March 31, 2012  includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph, that describes substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS


(This section is taken from our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended December 31, 2012; we encourage you to read the Plan of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2012, which accompanies this Schedule.)


General

Rangeford Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) is a development stage company that was incorporated on December 4, 2007, in the state of Nevada. The Company has never declared bankruptcy, it has never been in receivership, and it has never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. The fiscal year end is March 31st. The Company has not had revenues from operations since its inception and/or any interim period in the current fiscal year.

In August 2012, RF Colorado Ventures, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, acquired 9.9 million shares of the Company’s Common Stock representing approximately 98% of the total issued and outstanding shares.  The Company entered into various consulting agreements to manage the affairs of the company, including corporate governance, accounting procedures and controls and strategic planning.  Many of the agreements were with entities related to the principle owners of RF Colorado Ventures, LLC. (See Note 4 to the Financial Statements included below).  

Purchase and Sale Agreement

The Company put forth a Letter of Addendum (the “Addendum”), dated  January 25, 2013 to the  Purchase and Sale Agreement the Company entered into with GNE in November 2012; the Addendum modifies the Agreement in certain respects (See Note 3 to the Financial Statements included below). The Board of Directors approved the Addendum and the transactions contemplated thereby via unanimous written consent on January 30, 2013, with an effective date of February 5, 2013. The Addendum was executed on January 30, and the Company issued the shares required there under.  However, the Company has not yet made the payments required as of the date of this filing under the Addendum.  The parties continue to negotiate the terms of the transaction with GNE and therefore there can be no assurance that the acquisition contemplated by the Agreement will occur .  

In order to fund the cash requirements under the GNE agreement, the Company will have to raise a significant amount of capital.  From the date of inception (December 4, 2007) to December 31, 2012, the Company has recorded a net loss of $833,537 which were expenses relating to the initial development of the Company, filing its Registration Statement on Form S-1, expenses relating to maintaining its reporting company status with the SEC and during the last three month period, the Company’s activities in securing consulting services and general and administrative expenses incurred to raise additional equity and negotiate the GNE transaction. In order to complete the GNE transaction and to survive as a going concern over the Company will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives.

There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the proposed business. Failure to secure additional financing would result in cancellation of the GNE transaction and business failure and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.



19




OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

LIQUIDITY

At December 31, 2012, we had total cash on hand of $152,915, and other current asset of $17,500.  At December 31, 2012, we had total current liabilities of $153,554, consisting of accounts payables of $50,154 and related party advances and notes payable of $103,400.  At December 31, 2012, we have working capital of $16,861.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2012, we used cash of $134,385 in our operations compared to $7,195 during the nine months ended December 31, 2011.  During the nine months ended December 31, 2012, we received funds of $787,100 from our financing activities compared to $5,560 during the nine months ended December 31, 2011.

During the nine month period ended December 31, 2012, the Company received loans from two of its shareholders totaling $110,000 to fund working capital and the advance to GNE of $100,000.

Private offering of Preferred Shares

In December 2012, the Board of directors authorized the offering for sale and issuance of up to a maximum of 3,000,000 Shares of our Series “A” Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”). The Stated Value of the Preferred Stock is $5.00 per Share (the “Stated Value”). Each Share of Preferred Stock bears an eight percent (8%) cumulative dividend (the “Dividend”), due and payable quarterly as of July 31, October 31, January 31 and April 31.  Each Share may be converted by the holder thereof, at any time, into one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and one warrant exercisable at $6.50 per share into one share of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Warrant”). The Company may force conversion to Common Stock and one Warrant if the Company’s Common Stock trades over $7.00 for forty-five consecutive trading days.  The Preferred Stock is currently being offered to certain high net worth individuals and accredited



24




investors in a private offering.  As of December 31, 2012, the company had received proceeds of $785,000 for subscriptions to 157,000 shares of Preferred Stock.  Subsequent to year end, the company received an additional $25,000 in proceeds for subscriptions to an additional 5,000 Preferred Stock.  As of February 14, 2013, none of the Preferred Stock had been issued.

Short Term.

On a short-term basis, we have not generated any revenue or revenues sufficient to cover operations.  Based on prior history, we will continue to have insufficient revenue to satisfy current and recurring liabilities and the Company will need to raise significant additional capital.  

CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company will need to raise an additional $5,309,218 in funding to fully comply with the terms of the revised GNE agreement of which $1,636,155 is due and payable immediately.  

The Company is making every effort to sell at least a sufficient amount of Preferred Stock to meet the capital requirements of the GNE agreement and for general corporate purposes. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in its attempt to sell the preferred shares.

Critical Accounting Policies

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months when acquired.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, trade accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses.  All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at June 30, 2012 and 2011.

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2012. The Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

(A Development Stage Enterprise)

Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

For the Three and Nine Months Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011


NOTE 1 – CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of December 31, 2012, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s March 31, 2012 audited financial statements.  The results of operations for the periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Great Northern Energy, Inc. (“GNE”) to acquire a substantial non-operating working interest in oil assets in East Texas in



30




consideration for a purchase price that includes (a) a cash payment of $3,900,000 in the form of (i) a deposit of $100,000; (ii) a promissory note in the amount of $1,100,000; and (iii) a promissory note in the amount of $2,700,000 and (b) 6,500,000 shares of its restricted common stock.  

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had transferred a total of $600,000 to GNE towards the purchase of the oil and gas properties, but the agreement had not been consummated.  The advance was recorded as a long-term deposit on the balance sheet.

The Company put forth a Letter of Addendum (the “Addendum”), dated January 25, 2013 to GNE; which shall modify the Agreement.  The Board of Directors approved the Addendum and the transactions contemplated thereby via unanimous written consent on January 30, 2013, with an effective date of February 5, 2013.  The Addendum was executed on January 30, 2013 and the Company has issued the shares required under the Addendum to GNE.  However, the Company has not yet made the payments required as of the date of this filing under the Addendum.  The parties continue to negotiate the terms of the transaction with GNE and therefore there can be no assurance that the acquisition contemplated by the Agreement will occur.  Pursuant to the current Addendum, the Agreement shall be modified as follows:

1.

The Effective Date shall be deemed to have occurred on January 25, 2013, the Termination Date for the Closing of the transfer of the Assets from GNE to the Company shall be extended to no later than March 31, 2013.

2.

The Company shall issue GNE a new promissory note in the amount of $1,113,260 in exchange for the promissory note in the amount of $1,100,000 issued to GNE on November 15, 2012. The new promissory note shall be repayable commencing on February 15, 2013 and continuing in the increments on the dates set forth below until paid in full, bears interest at eight percent (8%) per annum, and includes additional fees in the total amount of $145,958.30 on the following schedule:

February 15, 2013 $ 436,154.68 Principal, Interest and Additional Fees

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Professional Services

In September 2012, the Company entered into a professional services contract with Fidare Consulting Group, LLC (“Fidare”) to provide consulting services relating to corporate governance, accounting procedures and controls and

strategic planning.  The managing member and principle owner of Fidare is a major stockholder in RF Colorado Ventures, the Company's principle stockholder.  In accordance with the terms of the original contract, Fidare receives monthly compensation of 20,000 common shares per month and warrants to purchase 20,000 common shares with an exercise price equal to the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance, plus reasonable and necessary expenses.  The warrants are exercisable at any time for two years from the date of issuance and may be settled on a net basis.  In December 2012, the contract was amended to provide for monthly compensation of $20,000 per month plus warrants to purchase 20,000 common shares on the same terms described above.  As of December 31, 2012, 100,000 shares had been issued to Fidare.  

The fair value of each warrant granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation.  Expected volatilities are based on volatilities from the historical trading ranges of the Company’s stock.  The expected term of options granted is estimated at the contractual term as noted in the individual option agreements and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for the periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury bond rate in effect at the time of grant for bonds with maturity dates at the estimated term of the options.  The key assumptions used in evaluating the warrants and the estimated fair value are as follows:

Each Share of Preferred Stock bears an eight percent (8%) cumulative dividend (the “Dividend”), due and payable quarterly as of July 31, October 31, January 31 and April 31.  Each Share may be converted by the holder thereof, at any time, into one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and one warrant exercisable at $6.50 per share into one share of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Warrant”). The Company may force conversion to Common Stock and one Warrant if the Company’s Common Stock trades over $7.00 for forty-five consecutive trading days.  The Preferred Stock is currently being offered to certain high net worth individuals and accredited investors in a private offering.  As of December 31, 2012, the company received proceeds of $785,000 for subscriptions to purchase 157,000 shares of Preferred Stock.  Subsequent to year end, the Company received an additional $25,000 in proceeds for subscriptions to purchase an additional 5,000 shares of Preferred Stock.  As of February 14, 2013, none of the Preferred Stock had been issued.

SECTION 5: ELIGIBILITY

Eligible Persons who are selected by the Administrator shall be eligible to be granted Rights hereunder subject to limitations set forth in this Plan; provided, however, that only Employees shall be eligible to be granted ISOs hereunder.

SECTION 6: TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS.

6.1 Stock Option Agreement. Each grant of an Option under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement between the Optionee and the Company. Such Option shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Administrator deems appropriate for inclusion in a Stock Option Agreement. The provisions of the various Stock Option Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

6.2 Number of Shares. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the number of shares of Stock that are subject to the Option and shall provide for the adjustment of such number in accordance with Section 9, hereof. The Stock Option Agreement shall also specify whether the Option is an ISO or a Non-Qualified Stock Option.

6.3 Exercise Price.                                                                           

6.3.1 In General. Each Stock Option Agreement shall state the price at which shares subject to the Stock Option may be purchased (the "Exercise Price"), which shall, with respect to Incentive Stock Options, be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Date of Grant. In the case of Non-Qualified Stock Options, the Exercise Price shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.



53




6.3.2 Payment. The Exercise Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 8 hereof.

6.4 Withholding Taxes. As a condition to the exercise of an Option, the Optionee shall make such arrangements as the Board may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such exercise or with the disposition of shares acquired by exercising an Option.

6.5 Exercisability. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the date when all or any installment of the Option becomes exercisable. In the case of an Optionee who is not an officer of the Company, a Director or a Consultant, an Option shall become exercisable at a rate of no more than 25% per year over a four-year period commencing on January 1 following the Date of Grant and 25% each year thereafter on January 1. Subject to the preceding sentence, the exercise provisions of any Stock Option Agreement shall be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion.

6.6 Term. The Stock Option Agreement shall specify the term of the Option. No Option shall be exercised after the expiration of ten years after the date the Option is granted. Unless otherwise provided in the Stock Option Agreement, no Option may be exercised (i) three months after the date the Optionee's Service with the Company, its Parent or its Subsidiaries terminates if such termination is for any reason other than death, Disability or Cause, (ii) one year after the date the Optionee's Service with the Company, its Parent or its subsidiaries terminates if such termination is a result of death or Disability, and (iii) if the Optionee's Service with the Company, its Parent, or its Subsidiaries terminates for Cause, all outstanding Options granted to such Optionee shall expire as of the commencement of business on the date of such termination. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, waive the accelerated expiration provided for in (i) or (ii). Outstanding Options that are not exercisable at the time of termination of employment for any reason shall expire at the close of business on the date of such termination.

6.7 Leaves of Absence. For purposes of Section 6.6 above, to the extent required by applicable law, Service shall be deemed to continue while the Optionee is on a bona fide leave of absence. To the extent applicable law does not require such a leave to be deemed to continue while the Optionee is on a bona fide leave of absence, such leave shall be deemed to continue if, and only if, expressly provided in writing by the Administrator or a duly authorized officer of the Company, Parent, or Subsidiary for whom Optionee provides his or her services.

6.8 Modification, Extension and Assumption of Options. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Administrator may modify, extend or assume outstanding Options (whether granted by the Company or another issuer) or may accept the cancellation of outstanding Options (whether granted by the Company or another issuer) in return for the grant of new Options for the same or a different number of shares and at the same or a different Exercise Price. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator may amend a previously granted Option to fully accelerate the exercise schedule of such Option and provide that upon the exercise of such Option, the Optionee shall receive shares of Restricted Stock that are subject to repurchase by the Company at the Exercise Price paid for the Option in accordance with Section 8.8.1 with such Company's right to repurchase at such price lapsing at the same rate as the exercise provisions



54




set forth in Optionee's Stock Option Agreement. The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, impair the Optionee's rights or increase the Optionee's obligations under such Option. However, a termination of the Option in which the Optionee receives a cash payment equal to the difference between the Fair Market Value and the Exercise Price for all shares subject to exercise under any outstanding Option shall not be deemed to impair any rights of the Optionee or increase the Optionee's obligations under such Option.

SECTION 7: TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS OR SALES

7.1 Stock Purchase Agreement. Each award or sale of shares under the Plan (other than upon exercise of an Option) shall be evidenced by a Stock Purchase Agreement between the Purchaser and the Company. Such award or sale shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Board deems appropriate for inclusion in a Stock Purchase Agreement. The provisions of the various Stock Purchase Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

7.2 Duration of Offers. Unless otherwise provided in the Stock Purchase Agreement, any right to acquire shares under the Plan (other than an Option) shall automatically expire if not exercised by the Purchaser within 15 days after the grant of such right was communicated to the Purchaser by the Company.

7.3 Purchase Price.

7.3.1 In General. Each Stock Purchase Agreement shall state the price at which the Stock subject to such Stock Purchase Agreement may be purchased (the "Purchase Price"), which, with respect to Stock Purchase Rights, shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

7.3.2 Payment of Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 8.

7.4 Withholding Taxes. As a condition to the purchase of shares, the Purchaser shall make such arrangements as the Board may require for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such purchase.

SECTION 8: PAYMENT; RESTRICTIONS

8.1 General Rule. The entire Purchase Price or Exercise Price of shares issued under the Plan shall be payable in full by, as applicable, cash or certified check for an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price or Exercise Price for the number of shares being purchased, or in the discretion of the Administrator, upon such terms as the Administrator shall approve, (i) in the case of an Option and provided the Company's stock is publicly traded, by a copy of instructions to a broker directing such broker to sell the Stock for which such Option is exercised, and to remit to the Company the aggregate Exercise Price of such Options (a "cashless exercise"), (ii) in the case of an Option or a sale of Stock, by paying all or a portion of the Exercise Price or Purchase Price for the number of shares being purchased by tendering Stock owned by the Optionee, duly endorsed for transfer to the Company, with a Fair



55




Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the Stock with respect to which such Option or portion thereof is thereby exercised or Stock acquired (a "stock-for-stock exercise") or (iii) by a stock-for-stock exercise by means of attestation whereby the Optionee identifies for delivery specific shares of Stock already owned by Optionee and receives a number of shares of Stock equal to the difference between the Option shares thereby exercised and the identified attestation shares of Stock (an "attestation exercise").

8.2 Withholding Payment. The Purchase Price or Exercise Price shall include payment of the amount of all federal, state, local or other income, excise or employment taxes subject to withholding (if any) by the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation as a result of the exercise of a Stock Option. The Optionee may pay all or a portion of the tax withholding by cash or check payable to the Company, or, at the discretion of the Administrator, upon such terms as the Administrator shall approve, by (i) cashless exercise or attestation exercise; (ii) stock-for-stock exercise; (iii) in the case of an Option, by paying all or a portion of the tax withholding for the number of shares being purchased by withholding shares from any transfer or payment to the Optionee ("Stock withholding"); or (iv) a combination of one or more of the foregoing payment methods. Any shares issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option and transferred by the Optionee to the Company for the purpose of satisfying any withholding obligation shall not again be available for purposes of the Plan. The Fair Market Value of the number of shares subject to Stock withholding shall not exceed an amount equal to the applicable minimum required tax withholding rates.

8.3 Services Rendered. At the discretion of the Administrator, shares may be awarded under the Plan in consideration of services rendered to the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary prior to the award.

8.4 Promissory Note. To the extent that a Stock Option Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement so provides, in the discretion of the Administrator, upon such terms as the Administrator shall approve, all or a portion of the Exercise Price or Purchase Price (as the case may be) of shares issued under the Plan may be paid with a full-recourse promissory note. However, in the event there is a stated par value of the shares and applicable law requires, the par value of the shares, if newly issued, shall be paid in cash or cash equivalents. The shares shall be pledged as security for payment of the principal amount of the promissory note and interest thereon, and held in the possession of the Company until said amounts are repaid in full. The interest rate payable under the terms of the promissory note shall not be less than the minimum rate (if any) required to avoid the imputation of additional interest under the Code. Subject to the foregoing, the Administrator (at its sole discretion) shall specify the term, interest rate, amortization requirements (if any) and other provisions of such note. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value at least equal to the principal amount of the loan shall be pledged by the holder to the Company as security for payment of the unpaid balance of the loan and such pledge shall be evidenced by a pledge agreement, the terms of which shall be determined by the Administrator, in its discretion; provided, however, that each loan shall comply with all applicable laws, regulations and rules of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any other governmental agency having jurisdiction.



56




8.5 Exercise/Pledge. To the extent that a Stock Option Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement so allows and if Stock is publicly traded, in the discretion of the Administrator, upon such terms as the Administrator shall approve, payment may be made all or in part by the delivery (on a form prescribed by the Administrator) of an irrevocable direction to pledge shares to a securities broker or lender approved by the Company, as security for a loan, and to deliver all or part of the loan proceeds to the Company in payment of all or part of the Exercise Price and any withholding taxes.

8.6 Written Notice. The purchaser shall deliver a written notice to the Administrator requesting that the Company direct the transfer agent to issue to the purchaser (or to his designee) a certificate for the number of shares of Common Stock being exercised or purchased or, in the case of a cashless exercise or share withholding exercise, for any shares that were not sold in the cashless exercise or withheld.

8.7 First Refusal Right. Each Stock Option Agreement and Stock Purchase Agreement may provide that the Company shall have the right of first refusal (the "First Refusal Right"), exercisable in connection with any proposed sale, hypothecation or other disposition of the Stock purchased by the Optionee or Offeree pursuant to a Stock Option Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement; and in the event the holder of such Stock desires to accept a bona fide third-party offer for any or all of such Stock, the Stock shall first be offered to the Company upon the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the bona fide offer.

8.8 Repurchase Rights. Following a termination of the Participant's Service, the Company may repurchase the Participant's Rights as provided in this Section 8.8 (the "Repurchase Right").

8.8.1 Repurchase Price. Following a termination of the Participant's Service the Repurchase Right shall be exercisable at a price equal to (i) the Fair Market Value of vested Stock or, in the case of exercisable options, the Fair Market Value of the Stock underlying such unexercised options less the Exercise Price, or (ii) the Purchase Price or Exercise Price, as the case may be, of unvested Stock; provided, however, the right to repurchase unvested stock as described in Section 8.8.1(ii) shall lapse at a rate of at least 33.33% per year over three years from the date the Right is granted.

8.8.2 Exercise of Repurchase Right. A Repurchase Right may be exercised only within 90 days after the termination of the Participant's Service (or in the case of Stock issued upon exercise of an Option or after the date of termination or the purchase of Stock under a Stock Purchase Agreement after the date of termination, within 90 days after the date of the exercise or Stock purchase, whichever is applicable) for cash or for cancellation of indebtedness incurred in purchasing the shares.

8.9 Termination of Repurchase and First Refusal Rights. Each Stock Option Agreement and Stock Purchase Agreement shall provide that the Repurchase Rights and First Refusal Rights shall have no effect with respect to, or shall lapse and cease to have effect when the issuer's securities become publicly traded or a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such Repurchase Rights and First Refusal Rights are not permitted under applicable federal or state securities laws.

SECTION 9: ADJUSTMENTS; MARKET STAND-OFF

9.1 Effect of Certain Changes.

9.1.1 Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc. If there is any change in the number of outstanding shares of Stock by reason of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination or reclassification, then (i) the number of shares of Stock available for Rights, (ii) the number of shares of Stock covered by outstanding Rights, and (iii) the Exercise Price or Purchase Price of any Stock Option or Purchase Right, in effect prior to such change, shall be proportionately adjusted by the Administrator to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Stock; provided, however, that any fractional shares resulting from the adjustment shall be eliminated.

9.1.2 Liquidation, Dissolution, Merger or Consolidation. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any corporate separation or division, including, but not limited to, a split-up, a split-off or a spin-off, or a sale of substantially all of the assets of the Company; a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the Surviving Entity; or a reverse merger in which the Company is the Surviving Entity, but the shares of Company stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities, cash or otherwise, then, the Company, to the extent permitted by applicable law, but otherwise in its sole discretion may provide for: (i) the continuation of outstanding Rights by the Company (if the Company is the Surviving Entity); (ii) the assumption of the Plan and such outstanding Rights by the Surviving Entity or its parent; (iii) the substitution by the Surviving Entity or its parent of Rights with substantially the same terms for such



58




outstanding Rights; or (iv) the cancellation of such outstanding Rights without payment of any consideration, provided that if such Rights would be canceled in accordance with the foregoing, the Participant shall have the right, exercisable during the later of the ten-day period ending on the fifth day prior to such merger or consolidation or ten days after the Administrator provides the Rights holder a notice of cancellation, to exercise such Rights in whole or in part without regard to any installment exercise provisions in the Rights agreement.

9.1.3 Par Value Changes. In the event of a change in the Stock of the Company as presently constituted which is limited to a change of all of its authorized shares with par value, into the same number of shares without par value, or a change in the par value, the shares resulting from any such change shall be "Stock" within the meaning of the Plan.

9.2 Decision of Administrator Final. To the extent that the foregoing adjustments relate to stock or securities of the Company, such adjustments shall be made by the Administrator, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive; provided, however, that each ISO granted pursuant to the Plan shall not be adjusted in a manner that causes such Stock Option to fail to continue to qualify as an ISO without the prior consent of the Optionee thereof.

9.3 No Other Rights. Except as hereinbefore expressly provided in this Section 9, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of Company stock or the payment of any dividend or any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of Company stock of any class or by reason of any of the events described in Section 9.1, above, or any other issue by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class; and, except as provided in this Section 9, none of the foregoing events shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of shares of Stock subject to Rights. The grant of a Right pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structures or to merge or to consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate or sell, or transfer all or part of its business or assets.

9.4 Market Stand-Off. Each Stock Option Agreement and Stock Purchase Agreement shall provide that, in connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including the Company's initial public offering, the Participant shall agree not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option for the repurchase of, or otherwise dispose or transfer for value or otherwise agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to any Stock without the prior written consent of the Company or its underwriters, for such period of time from and after the effective date of such registration statement as may be requested by the Company or such underwriters (the "Market Stand-Off").

11.4 Regulatory Matters. Each Stock Option Agreement and Stock Purchase Agreement shall provide that no shares shall be purchased or sold thereunder unless and until (i) any then applicable requirements of state or federal laws and regulatory agencies shall have been fully complied with to the satisfaction of the Company and its counsel and (ii) if required to do so by the Company, the Optionee or Offeree shall have executed and delivered to the Company a letter of investment intent in such form and containing such provisions as the Board or Committee may require.

SECTION 13: STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT

If the Participant becomes a party to a Stockholders Agreement, in addition to the terms of this Plan and the Stock Option Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement (whichever is applicable) pursuant to which the Stock is transferred, the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Agreement shall govern Participant's rights in and to the Stock; and if there is any conflict between the provisions of the Stockholders Agreement and this Plan or any conflict between the provisions of the Stockholders Agreement and the Stock Option Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement (whichever is applicable) pursuant to which the Stock is transferred, the provisions of the Stockholders Agreement shall be controlling. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13, if the Stockholders Agreement contains any provisions which would violate the Nevada Corporations Code if applied to the Participant, the terms of this Plan and the Stock Option Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement (whichever is applicable) pursuant to which the Stock is transferred shall govern the Participant's rights with respect to such provisions.

PART I


ITEM 1.  BUSINESS


General


Rangeford Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) is a development stage company that was incorporated on December 4, 2007, in the state of Nevada. The Company has never declared bankruptcy, it has never been in receivership, and it has never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. Since becoming incorporated, Rangeford Resources has not made any significant purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations and the Company owns no subsidiaries. The fiscal year end is March 31 st .

 

The Company has not had revenues from operations since its inception and/or any interim period in the current fiscal year.


Change of Control – Share Purchase Agreement


On July 5, 2012, the Company, Orphan Holdings of Texas, Inc. (“Orphan Holdings”), its majority shareholder, and RF Colorado Ventures, LLC (“RF Colorado”) executed a Share Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") that provides for the RF Colorado to purchase 9,900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Orphan Holdings for a total purchase price of $300,000, to be paid by RF Colorado.  The closing of the purchase is conditioned upon the delivery of funds on or about July 31, 2012.

Upon Closing of the purchase, RF Colorado will become the majority and controlling shareholder of the Company.

In addition, the Agreement, at closing, provides for the resignation of the Company’s sole officer & director, Mr. Frederick Zeigler. With nominees of RF Colorado to be appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors and as the Company’s management.


Plan of Operation


As of March 31, 2012, we have $200 of cash available. We have $24,565 current liabilities. From the date of inception (December 4, 2007) to March 31, 2012, the Company has recorded a net loss of $64,578 of which were expenses relating to the initial development of the Company, filing its Registration Statement on Form S-1, and expenses relating to maintaining Reporting Company status with the SEC. In order to survive as a going concern over the Company will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the proposed business. Failure to secure additional financing would result in business failure and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.
















4





Since August 15, 2008, the Company has sold 181,700 shares of common stock to the public with total proceeds raised of $22,713 These proceeds have been utilized by the Company to fund its initial development including administrative costs associated with maintaining its status as a Reporting Company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. The Company plans to continue to focus efforts on selling their common shares through this offering in order to continue to fund its initial development and fund the expenses associated with maintaining a reporting company status.


Drilling and Development


The Company does not anticipate any costs or expenses to be incurred for drilling research and development within the next six months.

 

Employees


There are no employees of the Company, excluding the current President and Director, Mr. Ziegler and the Company does not anticipate hiring any additional employees within the next twelve months.


General

 

We are an exploration stage company organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on Dec. 4, 2007 for the purpose of purchasing, developing and operating oil and gas leases. We are currently not earning any revenues and we are not conducting any business operations at the time. We have not acquired any leases or property at this time.

 

We have no revenues, no operations, and have been issued a going concern opinion and require additional capital to fund our operations.

 

We have a specific business plan and do not intend to engage in any merger, acquisition or business reorganization with any previously identified entity. 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 us to change our plans.

 

Operations

 

We have currently not acquired any leases or properties. Upon funding we intend to enter into leases or acquire property. We intend to engage third parties such as a drilling contractor, a geologist and an engineer to direct the drilling of wells on the lease. As of the date hereof, such third parties have not been engaged and there is no assurance that we will ever enter into contracts with any such third parties.

 

We will make a determination of leases we are interested in the future as funds become available and based upon the analysis of technical and production date, on site verification of any well equipment and production capability, and verification of ownership of lease hold rights. We have not yet targeted properties and do not intend to do so until we complete exploration of our current lease.


Geological and geophysical

 

We may engage detailed geological interpretation combined with advanced seismic exploration techniques to identify the most promising drilling sites within our leases.


Geological interpretation is based upon data recovered from existing oil and gas wells in an area and other sources. Such information is either purchased from the company that drilled the wells or becomes public knowledge through state agencies after a period of years. Through analysis of rock types, fossils and the electrical and chemical characteristics of rocks from existing wells, we can construct a picture of rock layers in the area. We will have access to the well logs and decline curves from existing operating wells. Well logs allow us to calculate an original oil or gas volume in place while decline curves from production history allow us to calculate remaining proved producing reserves.

 

We have not purchased, leased or entered into any agreements to purchase or lease any of the equipment necessary to conduct the geological or geophysical testing referred to herein and will only be able to do so upon raising additional capital through loans or the sale of equity securities.

Market For Oil And Gas Production

 

The market for oil and gas production is regulated by both the state and federal governments. The overall market is mature and with the exception of gas, all producers in a producing region will receive the same price. The major oil companies will purchase all crude oil offered for sale at posted field prices. There are price adjustments for quality differences from the Benchmark. Benchmark is Saudi Arabian light crude oil employed as the standard on which OPEC price changes have been based. Quality variances from Benchmark crude results in lower prices being paid for the variant oil. Oil sales are normally contracted with a purchaser or gatherer as it is known in the industry who will pick up the oil at the well site. In some instances there may be deductions for transportation from the well head to the sales point. At this time the majority of crude oil purchasers do not charge transportation fees unless the well is outside their service area. The service area is a geographical area in which the purchaser of crude oil will not charge a fee for picking upon the oil. The purchaser or oil gatherer as it is called within the oil industry, will usually handle all check disbursements to both the working interest and royalty owners. We will be a working interest owner. By being a working interest owner, we are responsible for the payment of our proportionate share of the operating expenses of the well. Royalty owners and overriding royalty owners receive a percentage of gross oil production for the particular lease and are not obligated in any manner whatsoever to pay for the costs of operating the lease. Therefore, we, in most instances, will be paying the expenses for the oil and gas revenues paid to the royalty and overriding royalty interests.


Gas sales are by contract. The gas purchaser will pay the well operator 100% of the sales proceeds on or about the 25th of each and every month for the previous month’s sales. The operator is responsible for all checks and distributions to the working interest and royalty owners. There is no standard price for gas. Price will fluctuate with the seasons and the general market conditions. It is our intention to utilize this market whenever possible in order to maximize revenues. We do not anticipate any significant change in the manner production is purchased, however, no assurance can be given at this time that such changes will not occur.

 

Acquisition of Future Leases

 

We have not targeted properties to acquire and do not intend to do so until funds are available to target and acquire properties for exploration.

 

Competition

 

The oil and gas industry is highly competitive. Our competitors and potential competitors include major oil companies and independent producers of varying sizes which are engaged in the acquisition of producing properties and the exploration and development of prospects. Most of our competitors have greater financial, personnel and other resources than we do and therefore have greater leverage in acquiring prospects, hiring personnel and marketing oil and gas.

 

Research and Development

 

We will be conducting research in the form of drilling on the property. Our business plan is focused on a strategy for maximizing the long-term exploration and development of our properties. To date, we have focused primarily on acquiring our interest in a single lease as described herein. 

 

Government Regulation

 

The production and sale of oil and gas is subject to regulation by state, federal and local authorities. In most areas there are statutory provisions regulating the production of oil and natural gas under which administrative agencies may set allowable rates of production and promulgate rules in connection with the operation and production of such wells, ascertain and determine the reasonable market demand of oil and gas, and adjust allowable rates with respect thereto.


The sale of liquid hydrocarbons was subject to federal regulation under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 which amended various acts, including the Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act of 1973. These regulations and controls included mandatory restrictions upon the prices at which most domestic and crude oil and various petroleum products could be sold. All price controls and restrictions on the sale of crude oil at the wellhead have been withdrawn. It is possible, however, that such controls may be re-imposed in the future but when, if ever, such re-imposition might occur and the effect thereof is unknown.

 

The sale of certain categories of natural gas in interstate commerce is subject to regulation under the Natural Gas Act and the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (“NGPA”). Under the NGPA, a comprehensive set of statutory ceiling prices applies to all first sales of natural gas unless the gas specifically exempt from regulation (i.e., unless the gas is deregulated). Administration and enforcement of the NGPA ceiling prices are delegated to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”). In June 1986 the FERC issued Order No. 451, which in general is designed to provide a higher NGPA ceiling price for certain vintages of old gas. It is possible, though unlikely, that we may in the future acquire significant amounts of natural gas subject to NGPA price regulations and/or FERC Order No. 451.

Our operations are subject to extensive and continually changing regulation because of legislation affecting the oil and natural gas industry is under constant review for amendment and expansion. Many departments and agencies, both federal and state, are authorized by statute to issue and have issued rules and regulations binding on the oil and natural gas industry and its individual participants. The failure to comply with such rules and regulations can result in large penalties. The regulatory burden on this industry increases our cost of doing business and, therefore, affects our profitability. However, we do not believe that we are affected in a significantly different way by these regulations than our competitors are affected.

 

Transportation and Production

 

Transportation and Sale of Oil and Natural Gas . We can make sales of oil, natural gas and condensate at market prices which are not subject to price controls at this time. The price that we receive from the sale of these products is affected by our ability to transport and the cost of transporting these products to market. Under applicable laws, FERC regulates:


·

the construction of natural gas pipeline facilities, and

·

the rates for transportation of these products in interstate commerce.

 

Our possible future sales of natural gas are affected by the availability, terms and cost of pipeline transportation. The price and terms for access to pipeline transportation remain subject to extensive federal and state regulation. Several major regulatory changes have been implemented by Congress and FERC from 1985 to the present. These changes affect the economics of natural gas production, transportation and sales. In addition, FERC is continually proposing and implementing new rules and regulations affecting these segments of the natural gas industry that remain subject to FERC’s jurisdiction. The most notable of these are natural gas transmission companies.

 

FERC’s more recent proposals may affect the availability of interruptible transportation service on interstate pipelines. These initiatives may also affect the intrastate transportation of gas in some cases. The stated purpose of many of these regulatory changes is to promote competition among the various sectors of the natural gas industry. These initiatives generally reflect more light-handed regulation of the natural gas industry. The ultimate impact of the complex rules and regulations issued by FERC since 1985 cannot be predicted. In addition, some aspects of these regulatory developments have not become final but are still pending judicial and FERC final decisions. We cannot predict what further action FERC will take on these matters. However, we do not believe that any action taken will affect us much differently than it will affect other natural gas producers, gatherers and marketers with which we might compete.

 

Effective as of January 1, 1995, FERC implemented regulations establishing an indexing system for transportation rates for oil. These regulations could increase the cost of transporting oil to the purchaser. We do not believe that these regulations will affect us any differently than other oil producers and marketers with which we compete.


Regulation of Drilling and Production . Our proposed drilling and production operations are subject to regulation under a wide range of state and federal statutes, rules, orders and regulations. Among other matters, these statutes and regulations govern:


·

the amounts and types of substances and materials that may be released into the environment,

·

the discharge and disposition of waste materials,

·

the reclamation and abandonment of wells and facility sites, and

·

the remediation of contaminated sites,


and require:


·

permits for drilling operations,

·

drilling bonds, and

·

reports concerning operations.



7




 

Environmental Regulations

 

General . Our operations are affected by the various state, local and federal environmental laws and regulations, including the:


·

Clean Air Act,

·

Oil Pollution Act of 1990,

·

Federal Water Pollution Control Act,

·

Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ( RCRA ),

·

Toxic Substances Control Act, and

·

Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”).


These laws and regulations govern the discharge of materials into the environment or the disposal of waste materials, or otherwise relate to the protection of the environment. In particular, the following activities are subject to stringent environmental regulations:


·

drilling,

·

development and production operations,

·

activities in connection with storage and transportation of oil and other liquid hydrocarbons, and

·

use of facilities for treating, processing or otherwise handling hydrocarbons and wastes.

  

Violations are subject to reporting requirements, civil penalties and criminal sanctions. As with the industry generally, compliance with existing regulations increases our overall cost of business. The increased costs cannot be easily determined. Such areas affected include:


·

unit production expenses primarily related to the control and limitation of air emissions and the disposal of produced water,

·

capital costs to drill exploration and development wells resulting from expenses primarily related to the management and disposal of drilling fluids and other oil and natural gas exploration wastes, and

·

capital costs to construct, maintain and upgrade equipment and facilities and remediate, plug and abandon inactive well sites and pits.

 

Environmental regulations historically have been subject to frequent change by regulatory authorities. Therefore, we are unable to predict the ongoing cost of compliance with these laws and regulations or the future impact of such regulations on our operations. However, we do not believe that changes to these regulations will have a significant negative effect on our operations.


A discharge of hydrocarbons or hazardous substances into the environment could subject us to substantial expense, including both the cost to comply with applicable regulations pertaining to the cleanup of releases of hazardous substances into the environment and claims by neighboring landowners and other third parties for personal injury and property damage. We do not maintain insurance for protection against certain types of environmental liabilities.


The Clean Air Act requires or will require most industrial operations in the United States to incur capital expenditures in order to meet air emission control standards developed by the EPA and state environmental agencies. Although no assurances can be given, we believe the Clean Air Act requirements will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

RCRA is the principal federal statute governing the treatment, storage and disposal of hazardous wastes. RCRA imposes stringent operating requirements, and liability for failure to meet such requirements, on a person who is either:



8




·

a generator or transporter of hazardous waste, or

·

an owner or operator of a hazardous waste treatment, storage or disposal facility.

 

At present, RCRA includes a statutory exemption that allows oil and natural gas exploration and production wastes to be classified as non-hazardous waste. As a result, we will not be subject to many of RCRA’s requirements because our operations will probably generate minimal quantities of hazardous wastes.


CERCLA, also known as “Superfund,” imposes liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original act, on certain classes of persons that contributed to the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These persons include:


·

the owner or operator of the site where hazardous substances have been released, and

·

companies that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances found at the site.

 

CERCLA also authorizes the EPA and, in some instances, third parties to act in response to threats to the public health or the environment and to seek to recover from the responsible classes of persons the costs they incur. In the course of our ordinary operations, we could generate waste that may fall within CERCLA’s definition of a “hazardous substance.” As a result, we may be liable under CERCLA or under analogous state laws for all or part of the costs required to clean up sites at which such wastes have been disposed.

 

Under such law we could be required to:


·

remove or remediate previously disposed wastes, including wastes disposed of or released by prior owners or operators,

·

clean up contaminated property, including contaminated groundwater, or

·

perform remedial plugging operations to prevent future contamination.


We could also be subject to other damage claims by governmental authorities or third parties related to such contamination.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and because we desire to take advantage of, the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in this report and in any other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking  statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently  subject to significant  business,  economic and competitive uncertainties and  contingencies,  many of which are beyond our control and many of which,  with  respect to future  business  decisions,  are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on our behalf.  We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements.


The independent registered public accounting firm’s report on the Company’s financial statements as of March 31, 2012, and for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph, that describes substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  


PLAN OF OPERATIONS


General


Rangeford Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) is a development stage company that was incorporated on December 4, 2007, in the state of Nevada. The Company has never declared bankruptcy, it has never been in receivership, and it has never been involved in any legal action or proceedings. Since becoming incorporated, Rangeford Resources has not made any significant purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations and the Company owns no subsidiaries. The fiscal year end is March 31st. The Company has not had revenues from operations since its inception and/or any interim period in the current fiscal year.


Plan of Operation


As of March 31, 2012, we have $200 of cash available. We have $24,565 current liabilities. From the date of inception (December 4, 2007) to March 31, 2012 the Company has recorded a net loss of $64,578 which were expenses relating to the initial development of the Company, filing its Registration Statement on Form S-1, and expenses relating to maintaining Reporting Company status with the SEC. In order to survive as a going concern over the Company will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the proposed business. Failure to secure additional financing would result in business failure and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.


The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 on July 26, 2008, which was deemed effective on August 15, 2008. Since August 15, 2008, the Company has sold 181,700 shares of common stock to the public with total proceeds raised of $22,625. These proceeds have been utilized by the Company to fund its initial development including administrative costs associated with maintaining its status as a Reporting Company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Exchange Act of 1934 as amended.


Change of Control – Share Purchase Agreement


On July 5, 2012, the Company, Orphan Holdings of Texas, Inc. (“Orphan Holdings”), its majority shareholder, and RF Colorado Ventures, LLC (“RF Colorado”) executed a Share Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") that provides for the RF Colorado to purchase 9,900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock held by Orphan Holdings for a total purchase price of $300,000, to be paid by RF Colorado.  The closing of the purchase is conditioned upon the delivery of funds on or about July 31, 2012.

Upon Closing of the purchase, RF Colorado will become the majority and controlling shareholder of the Company.

In addition, the Agreement, at closing, provides for the resignation of the Company’s sole officer & director, Mr. Frederick Zeigler. With nominees of RF Colorado to be appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors and as the Company’s management.

Drilling and Development


The Company does not anticipate any costs or expenses to be incurred for drilling research and development within the next six months.


Employees


There are no employees of the Company, excluding the current President and Director, Mr. Ziegler and the Company does not anticipate hiring any additional employees within the next twelve months.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets


We will need substantial additional capital to support our proposed future energy operations.  We have no revenues.  We have no committed source for any funds as of date here.  No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed.  In the event funds cannot be raised when needed, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, may never achieve sales or royalty income, and could fail in business as a result of these uncertainties.


Decisions regarding future participation in exploration wells or geophysical studies or other activities will be made on a case-by-case basis.  We may, in any particular case, decide to participate or decline participation.  If participating, we may pay our proportionate share of costs to maintain our proportionate interest through cash flow or debt or equity financing.  If participation is declined, we may elect to farmout, non-consent, sell or otherwise negotiate a method of cost sharing in order to maintain some continuing interest in the prospect.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


For the Year Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to the Year Ended March 31, 2011


During the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not recognize any revenues from it operating activities.  In part, because such activities were focused on identifying opportunities and the listing of the Company’s common stock on the over the counter market for trading.


During the year ended March 31, 2012, the Company recognized a net loss of $11,250 compared to $15,136 for the year ended March 31, 2011.  The decrease of $3,886 was a result of the Company’s decrease in operational expenses.


LIQUIDITY


At March 31, 2012, we had total current assets of $200, consisting solely of cash.  At March 31, 2012, we had total current liabilities of $24,565, consisting of accounts payable of $3,350, accrued expenses of $160 and related party payables of $21,055.  At March 31, 2012, we have a working capital deficit of $24,365.


During the year ended March 31, 2012, we used cash of $8,440 in our operations compared to $15,136 during the year ended March 31, 2011.  During the year ended March 31, 2012, we received funds of $6,760 from our financing activities compared to $12,313 during the year ended March 31, 2011.


The Company had received loans from two of its shareholders totaling $22,555 from inception to March 31, 2012 for the purposes of funding startup operations. This includes $7,060 and $2,000 received during the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. These loans are non-interest bearing and are due on demand and as such are included in current liabilities.


During the year ended March 31, 2011, the Company rescinded 100,000 common shares previously issued for services.


Short Term.


On a short-term basis, we have not generated any revenue or revenues sufficient to cover operations.  Based on prior history, we will continue to have insufficient revenue to satisfy current and recurring liabilities as the Company continues exploration activities.  



12




Capital Resources


The Company has only common stock as its capital resource.


We have no material commitments for capital expenditures within the next year, however if operations are commenced, substantial capital will be needed to pay for participation, investigation, exploration, acquisition and working capital.


Need for Additional Financing  


We do not have capital sufficient to meet its cash needs.  The Company will have to seek loans or equity placements to cover such cash needs.  Once exploration commences, its needs for additional financing is likely to increase substantially.


No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by the Company’s management or other stockholders.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow us to cover the Company’s expenses as they may be incurred.


The Company will need substantial additional capital to support its proposed future energy operations.  We have no revenues.  The Company has no committed source for any funds as of the date hereof.  No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed.  In the event funds cannot be raised when needed, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, may never achieve sales or royalty income, and could fail in business as a result of these uncertainties.


Decisions regarding future participation in exploration wells or geophysical studies or other activities will be made on a case-by-case basis.  The Company may, in any particular case, decide to participate or decline participation.  If participating, we may pay its proportionate share of costs to maintain the Company’s proportionate interest through cash flow or debt or equity financing.  If participation is declined, the Company may elect to farmout, non-consent, sell or otherwise negotiate a method of cost sharing in order to maintain some continuing interest in the prospect.


Critical Accounting Policies


Cash

 

Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months when acquired.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, trade accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses.  All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at March 31, 2012 and 2011.


FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:


Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;


Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and


Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.


The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.


ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


Our operations do not employ financial instruments or derivatives which are market sensitive.  Short term funds are held in non-interest bearing accounts and funds held for longer periods are placed in interest bearing accounts.  Large amounts of funds, if available, will be distributed among multiple financial institutions to reduce risk of loss.   The Company’s cash holdings do not generate interest income.


ITEM 8.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA


The audited financial statements of Rangeford Resources, Inc. for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, and the period from December 4, 2007 (inception) through March 31, 2012, appear as pages F-1 through F-12.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of

Rangeford Resources, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Rangeford Resources, Inc. (the “Company”), as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from inception on December 4, 2007 to March 31, 2012. 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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 positions of the Company as of March 31, 2012, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, and for the period from inception on December 4, 2007 to March 31, 2012 are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses and has experienced negative cash flows from operations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to those matters are also described in Note 2 to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

RANGEFORD RESOURCES, INC.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2012 and 2011


Note 1 - Nature of Business

 

Rangeford Resources, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on December 4, 2007 in the State of Nevada. The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 4, 2007 for the purpose of purchasing, developing and operating oil and gas leases. The Company is an oil and gas company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company currently has no operations or realized revenues from its planned principle business purpose and, in accordance with FASB ASC 915  “Development Stage Entities,”  is considered a Development Stage Company.

 

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash

 

Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months when acquired.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 "Income Taxes" which codified SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes"  and FIN 48  “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No.  109.”  Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, trade accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses.  All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at March 31, 2011 and 2010.






21



RANGEFORD RESOURCES, INC.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2012 and 2011


Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:


Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;


Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and


Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.


The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2011 and 2010. The Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

Earnings Per Share Information

FASB ASC 260, “ Earnings Per Share” provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share.  Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share.  Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, at the reporting dates, as there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.


Share Based Expenses


ASC 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" codified SFAS No. 123 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payments award to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. , may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: ( a ) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or ( b ) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity

RANGEFORD RESOURCES, INC.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2012 and 2011


Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50  "Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees"  which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 ("EITF 96-18"),  "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services".  Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: ( a ) the goods or services received; or ( b ) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.


Going concern


The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern.  This contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Currently, the Company has minimal cash and no material assets, nor does it have operations or a source of revenue sufficient to cover its operation costs and allow it to continue as a going concern.  The Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional capital through placement of our common stock in order to implement its business plan, or merge with an operating company.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in either situation in order to continue as a going concern.  The officers and directors have committed to advancing certain operating costs of the Company.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


There were accounting standards and interpretations issued during the year ended March 31, 2012, none of which are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, operations, or cash flows.


Note 3 -   Stockholders’ Equity

 

Common stock


The authorized common stock of the Company consists of 75,000,000 shares with par value of $0.001.  


On December 4, 2007, the Company authorized the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock at $0.00173 per share in consideration of $100 in cash, $4,000 in a subscription receivable and $13,200 of professional and legal services for a total consideration of $17,300.

RANGEFORD RESOURCES, INC.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Financial Statements

March 31, 2012 and 2011


Note 3 -   Stockholders’ Equity (continued)


During the year ended March 31, 2009, the Company issued 14,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to its S-1 registration statement which was declared effective on August 15, 2008 for a total cash consideration of $750. The Company also issued 82,500 and 85,200 shares during the years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 for a total cash consideration of $10,313 and $10,650, respectively.


During the year ended March 31, 2011, the Company rescinded 100,000 common shares previously issued for services.


There were 10,081,700 and 10,099,200 common shares issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2012 and 2011.


Net loss per common share


Net loss per share is computed using the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic loss per share.  Diluted loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding unless common stock equivalent shares are anti-dilutive.  Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised. Basic net loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.


Note 4 -   Income Taxes  


We did not provide any current or deferred U.S. federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because we have experienced operating losses since inception. Under ACS 740  “Income Taxes,”  when it is more likely than not that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income the Company must allow for this future tax benefit.  We provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carryforwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carryforward period.


The Company has not taken a tax position that, if challenged, would have a material effect on the financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, applicable under ACS 740.  As a result of the adoption of ACS 740, we did not recognize any adjustment to the liability for uncertain tax position and therefore did not record any adjustment to the beginning balance of accumulated deficit on the balance sheet.

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


None.


ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We conducted an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”) as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this Evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our Disclosure Controls were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.


Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls


Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.


The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.


Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 




26



Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2012. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework . Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of March 31, 2012, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.


Changes in Internal Controls


There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended March 31, 2012, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Conflicts of Interest – Corporate Opportunities


Presently no requirement contained in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, or minutes which requires officers and directors of the Company’s business to disclose to Rangeford business opportunities which come to their attention.  The Company’s officers and directors do, however, have a fiduciary duty of loyalty to Rangeford to disclose to it any business opportunities which come to their attention, in their capacity as an officer and/or director or otherwise.  Excluded from this duty would be opportunities which the person learns about through his involvement as an officer and director of another company.  The Company has no intention of merging with or acquiring an affiliate, associate person or business opportunity from any affiliate or any client of any such person.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS


Rangeford’s officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes and the bylaws.


Under the Nevada Revised Statutes, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company's Articles of Incorporation.  The Company’s Articles of Incorporation do not specifically limit the directors’ immunity.  Excepted from that immunity are: (a) a willful failure to deal fairly with Rangeford or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest; (b) a violation of criminal law, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and (d) willful misconduct.


The Company’s bylaws provide that it will indemnify the directors to the fullest extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that it may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with the directors and officers; and, provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding, or part thereof, initiated by such person unless such indemnification: (a) is expressly required to be made by law, (b) the proceeding was authorized by the board of directors, (c) is provided by the Company, in sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested under Nevada law or (d) is required to be made pursuant to the bylaws.


The Company’s bylaws provide that it will advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of Rangeford as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefore, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under the bylaws or otherwise.


The Company’s bylaws provide that no advance shall be made by Rangeford to an officer except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was the Company’s director in which event this paragraph shall not apply, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Rangeford.


EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN INFORMATION


Rangerford does not have an equity compensation plan at this time.


ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
