DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS OF FFA'S APPROACH.

INSTITUTIONAL CAPITAL RESOURCES - Falcon has an international network of client investors in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. The Firm believes its reputation rests on its ability to deliver on financial commitments.

CORPORATE AND BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS - Falcon has an exceptional network of relationships in the corporate and the general business community

KNOWING OWNER'S OBJECTIVES -Transactions will be structured by the Firm to take into account the particular needs of owners. There may be financial, tax or estate planning issues of particular importance.

LOCATING A MERGER PARTNER - Public shell reverse mergers can be a mine field. Public companies go bankrupt, but continue to file SEC documents for the sole purpose of being acquired in a merger. Blind pools are created by investors to attract merger candidates. Locating the appropriate partner requires diligence and a unique skill. Falcon possesses that diligence and skill.

UNDERSTANDING BUSINESS STRATEGY- A sound understanding of management's business helps Falcon perform a constructive role in advising management in structure and on sources of funding.

VALUATION AND STRUCTURING SKILL-The experience of the Firm's Managing Director and associates in valuing and structuring transactions reflects extensive involvement in the capital market process. This expertise includes knowledge of comparable transactions, understanding of institutional investment preferences and awareness of market trends and conditions.

LONG TERM INVESTMENT HORIZON - Falcon has a long term view and believes the effective association of the target company management with the investors, builds value for both the company and the investors.

INVESTMENT JUDGEMENT-The firm believes sound investment judgment in selecting clients to introduce to investors is a key success. By vetting companies carefully, companies represented by FFA receive priority investment consideration. Managements meet personally with the investors and a close personal relationship evolves.
