Abstract: In this paper we give an infinite class of finite simple right Bol loops of exponent 2. The right multiplication group of these loops is an extension of an elementary Abelian $ 2$-group by $ S_5$. The construction uses the description of the structure of such loops given by M. Aschbacher (2005). These results answer some questions of M. Aschbacher.
