This information is based on current expectations that are subject to
significant risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. The risks,

related to the exploration, development and production of shale gas reserves;
general economic, market and business conditions; substantial capital
requirements; uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of reserves and
resources; extent of, and cost of compliance with, government laws and
regulations and the effect of changes in such laws and regulations; the need
to obtain regulatory approvals before development commences; environmental
risks and hazards and the cost of compliance with environmental regulations;
aboriginal claims; inherent risks and hazards with operations such as
mechanical or pipe failure, cratering and other dangerous conditions;
potential cost overruns, drilling wells is speculative, often involving
significant costs that may be more than estimated and may not result in any
discoveries; variations in foreign exchange rates; competition for capital,
equipment, new leases, pipeline capacity and skilled personnel; the failure of
the holder of licenses, leases and permits to meet requirements of such;
changes in royalty regimes; failure to accurately estimate abandonment and
reclamation costs; inaccurate estimates and assumptions by management and/or
their joint venture partners; effectiveness of internal controls; the
potential lack of available drilling equipment; failure to obtain or keep key
personnel; title deficiencies; geo-political risks; and risk of litigation.

Any references in this news release to initial production rates are useful in
confirming the presence of hydrocarbons; however, such rates are not
determinative of the rates at which such wells will continue production and
decline thereafter and are not necessarily indicative of long-term performance
or ultimate recovery. While encouraging, readers are cautioned not to place
reliance on such rates in calculating the aggregate production for Falcon.
Such rates are based on field estimates and may be based on limited data
available at this time.
