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
