Falcon is an international oil & gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of
conventional and unconventional oil and gas assets, with the current portfolio spread between South Africa,
Australia and Hungary. Falcon is incorporated in British Columbia, Canada and headquartered in Dublin, Ireland

Falcon's strategy is to leverage the Company's expertise in the unconventional oil and gas industry to acquire
interests in licences covering large acreages of land and to build on its internationally diversified portfolio
of unconventional assets and interests, which are located in countries, which the Board believes support the
exploitation of unconventional oil and gas.

"I am pleased to announce the start of trading in our shares in London and Dublin, following a successful
placing in which we raised approximately US$25 million. We are pleased to offer our new and existing investors
