in its discussions with a number of those companies.
Consolidation of interest in Australian subsidiary
In July 2013 Falcon completed the acquisition of a 25.4% minority interest in
Falcon Australia consolidating the Group's interest at 98% of the company.
Reducing the Overriding Royalty, Beetaloo Basin, Australia
On 1 November 2013, Falcon announced that Falcon Australia, had entered into an
agreement ("the CRIAG Agreement") with CR Innovations AG ("CRIAG") to acquire
its 4% Overriding Royalty Interest ("ORRI") relating to its exploration permits

agreements to acquire 8% of the privately held ORRI at a total cost of US$7
million, of which US$6 million is payable only upon completion of a Farm-Out in
Australia. In addition, the Group has secured agreement to acquire a further 3%
based on two five year call options granted to Falcon at a future combined cost
