WITH DIVIDEND INCREASE

FORT WORTH, TEXAS, NOVEMBER 10, 2005 — RANGE RESOURCES CORPORATION (NYSE: RRC) announced today that its Board of Directors has declared a three-for-two split of its common stock and will maintain the quarterly cash dividend of two cents per share, effecting a 50% dividend increase.

Commenting, John H. Pinkerton, Range’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The Board’s decision to split the stock and increase the dividend is in recognition of the significant appreciation in Range’s stock price over the past two years and its confidence in our ability to continue to profitably grow production and reserves in the years ahead.”

The stock split will be accomplished by means of a stock dividend of one-half share of common stock for each share outstanding. The additional shares will be distributed on December 2, 2005 to shareholders of record on November 22, 2005. In lieu of issuing fractional shares, Range will pay cash for fractional shares based on the closing price of the common stock on the record date as reported by the NYSE. After the split, Range will have approximately 130 million shares outstanding.
