Forward-Looking Statements
This Current
Report contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking
statements include, but are not limited to, statements that refer to projections, forecasts, or other characterizations of future events
or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,”
“could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,”
“seeks,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “prospects,”
“guidance,” “outlook,” “should,” “would,” “will,” and similar expressions
may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These statements
include, but are not limited to, statements about Falcon’s and Desert Peak’s ability to effect the previously announced and
pending merger between Falcon and Desert Peak (the “Merger”); the expected benefits and timing of the Merger; future dividends;
and future plans, expectations, and objectives for the combined company’s operations after completion of the Merger, including statements
about strategy, synergies, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues, projected production, projected costs, prospects,
plans, and objectives of management. While forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and analyses made by us that we believe
to be reasonable under the circumstances, whether actual results and developments will meet expectations and predictions depend on a number
of risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results, performance, and financial condition to differ materially from expectations.
See “Risk Factors” in the Proxy Statement, Falcon’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2021, and Falcon’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
for a discussion of risk factors that affect the Company’s business. Any forward-looking statement made in this news release speaks
only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and
it is not possible to predict all of them. Neither Desert Peak nor Falcon undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking
statement, whether as a result of new information, future development, or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
