Rango Energy Inc. (OTC: RAGO) an oil and gas exploration and development company, today announced that it has signed a definitive Letter of Intent to acquire Innex Energy Inc., an energy company with oil and gas leases covering approximately 50,000 acres in the San Joaquin Valley, Northern California's Sacramento Basin and Oklahoma. The terms of the deal were not provided and are subject to a non-disclosure agreement until such time as a definitive agreement is signed. The transaction is subject to mutual due diligence and completion of a financing that will close concurrently with the acquisition.

Rango expects to be able to provide interim updates as the transaction calls for three separate closings in order to accommodate and not interfere with existing contracts that Innex currently has in place with their drilling partners.

Said Rango CEO Harp Sangha, "We are elated to have the opportunity to bring Innex's tremendous oil and gas portfolio into the Rango Energy. Innex has spent the better part of 14 years putting a diverse, oil and gas rich group of leases together that have both current production and proven undeveloped reserves. We now have the task of completing mutual diligence as well as funding the acquisition."

Sangha added, "Further, upon the closing of this transaction, we will be inheriting Innex's team of successful and seasoned engineering and geological experts. These gentleman have worked in senior positions at major oil companies and bring a wealth of expertise and experience to our company. We will be providing more information about their background as well as the assets in their portfolio in the near future."

Both companies are based in Dallas.
