Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd.(“Falcon” or “Company”)

Binding Letter of Intent Executed with New Joint Venture Partner

11 October 2022 – Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd. (TSXV: FO, AIM: FOG) is pleased to announce that its c.98% owned subsidiary, Falcon Oil & Gas Australia Limited (“Falcon Australia”), has entered into a binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with Tamboran (B1) Pty Limited (“Tamboran”), a joint venture between Sheffield Holdings LP and Tamboran Resources Limited, pursuant to which the parties have agreed to amend the terms of the Joint Operating Agreement (“JOA”) and the Farm-In Agreement (“FIA”), each dated 2 May 2014 (as amended), entered into with Origin Energy B2 Pty Ltd (“Origin”) in respect of Falcon Australia’s interest in the Beetaloo Sub-Basin exploration permits.

The Board believes that the proposed amendments to the FIA and JOA will significantly improve Falcon’s future capital preservation and optionality. The key terms of the LOI provide for:

• Falcon Australia to earn an additional carry on future well costs of up to AU$30m (AU$6.75m net to Falcon Australia);
• the introduction of limited proration units on sole risk operations to a maximum of 6,400 acres per well, providing Falcon Australia with participation optionality on the drilling of future wells;
• the sharing of well data on any sole risked wells, providing Falcon Australia with visibility on crucial data and analysis even where it elects not to participate; and
• pre-emptive rights in relation to Origin’s divestment of its 77.5% interest in the Beetaloo Sub-basin announced on 19 September 2022 are not to be exercised by Falcon Australia and all pre-emptive and similar rights are to be removed from the JOA, providing Falcon Australia with greater flexibility for realisation of licence interests.

The parties will now proceed to negotiate and agree fully termed amendments to the JOA and the FIA reflecting the terms of the LOI.

Drilling of the first of the two Stage 3 wells will commence shortly with Falcon Australia still benefiting financially from the remainder of the carry under the existing FIA and JOA with Origin.

Philip O'Quigley, Falcon’s CEO, commented:

“Falcon Australia welcomes its new JV partners, Sheffield Holdings and Tamboran Resources. While our immediate focus is on the two Stage 3 Amungee wells, we are really excited about the future pace of development of the Beetaloo. The proposed amendments to the FIA and JOA puts Falcon in a very strong position going forward creating optionality for our shareholders in terms of the level of participation in any future appraisal and development drilling. Each future well drilled in the Beetaloo basin play further de-risks the play and, as a result of the proposed changes contemplated by the LOI, Falcon can tailor its participation to best preserve its capital while at the same time maximising its optionality.”
