                             PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

                          Pecan Station North Prospect
      ESN Re-entry/Re-drill of the Blankenship & Blankenship # 1 WCSL Well

WHEREAS; Edwin S. Nichols Exploration, Inc., herein referred to as "ESN", is
currently the owner of or has negotiated for or is in the process of negotiating
for the rights to acquire all or a portion of certain oil and gas properties
herein after referred to as the Pecan Station North Prospect located in the
Washington County School Land Surveys 103 & 105, Tom Green County, Texas and
consisting of 475-acres, more or less, a description is attached hereto as
Exhibit "A".

AND WHEREAS; ESN now plans to develop potential oil & gas reserves on the said
Pecan Station North Prospect by initially re-entering and attempting to re-drill
and complete the Blankenship & Blankenship # 1 WCSL well located on a legal
drill site on the prospect acreage.

NOW WHEREAS; Falcon Natural Gas Corp., herein referred to as "Participant",
wishes to participate with ESN in the re-entry, and attempted re-drill and, if
prudent, completion of the said Blankenship & Blankenship WCSL # 1well for a 75%
(seventy-five per cent) working interest, being a 55.80% (fifty-five & 80/100
percent) net revenue interest (after taking into account the assignment by
Falcon of a 0.45% ORRI pursuant to a consulting agreement with Wood Roberts,
LLC.) on an AFE 1/3 for 1/4 basis under the following terms and considerations:

1.    Upon the execution of this agreement the Participant shall pay to ESN the
      amount of $100,406.25 (one hundred thousand, four hundred six thousand
      dollars and twenty five cents) representing the Participant's initial fee
      to participate with ESN in wells drilled on the Pecan Station North
      Prospect.

2.    The first three wells (the "Initial Wells") drilled or re-entered on the
      said Pecan Station North Prospect will be on an AFE 1/3 for 1/4 basis with
      the Participant paying 100% of the cost of drilling and completing into
      the tanks or pipeline and receiving by assignment from ESN a 75% working
      interest, being a 55.80% net revenue interest, Wood Roberts receiving by
      assignment a 0.45% ORRI, and ESN retaining a 25% working interest, being
      an 18.75% net revenue interest carried through drilling and completion and
      to the tanks or pipeline in the Initial Wells drilled or re-entered under
      the terms of this agreement. Each of the Initial Wells drilled or
      re-entered and completed will earn a 40-acre production unit unless the
      minimum unit required for such well to produce 100% allowable is greater,
      in which case the production unit will be increased to satisfy such
      requirement.

3.    The proposed venture will initially consist of the re-entry and attempted
      re-drilling and completion of the Blankenship & Blankenship WCSL # 1well
      to a depth of +/- 4,900' or deep enough to test the Palo Pinto Lime and
      Harkey Sand formations on a legal drill site unit as required by the Texas
      Railroad Commission. Unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties
      hereto, on or before 180 days from the date hereof ESN will propose to the
      Participant the re-entry of the said Blankenship & Blankenship WCSL # 1
      well at which time the Participant shall have 15 days to submit its
      proportionate share of the drilling funds as set out on the AFE attached
      hereto as Exhibit "B". Failure of the participant to submit its share of
      such drilling funds within the allotted time period when invoiced by ESN
      shall represent the Participant's decision not to participate in the
      re-entry of the said well and by so doing shall cause the immediate
      automatic termination of the Participant's right title and interest, if
      any, in and to the Pecan Station North Prospect and wells drilled thereon,
      and from that time forward neither party shall have any obligation to the
      other and ESN shall retain all money previously paid by the Participant,
      with regards to the Pecan Station North Prospect, as liquidated damages,
      and not as a penalty, the parties agreeing that the damages to ESN would
      be difficult to ascertain.

                                       1

4.    ESN will re-enter and attempt to re-drill, and if prudent, complete the
      said re-entry well for the estimated cost as set out in the AFE attached
      hereto as Exhibit "B" with $185,042.81 being allocated to re-entry and
      re-drilling cost, herein referred to as Drilling Cost, and $337,780.73
      being allocated to completion, herein referred to as Completion Cost, all
      being on a 1/3 for 1/4 basis, meaning that the Participant will pay 100%
      of the AFE'd cost and shall receive 75% of the working interest and ESN
      shall receive a 25% carried working interest.

5.    After re-entering and re-drilling the well, if a completion attempt is
      deemed warranted by ESN, then ESN will notify the Participant of such
      completion and ESN shall make available any information available to ESN
      concerning the well and the Participant shall have 7 days from the date of
      notice from ESN to pay to ESN at ESN's address, the Participant's
      proportionate share of the AFE "Completion Cost" being $337,780.73 . -
      Failure of the Participant to pay its share of the AFE Completion Cost
      within the allotted time will result in immediate forfeiture of all right
      title and interest by the Participant in and to the subject well and ESN
      and the Participant shall have no further obligation to the other with
      respect to the said well except that settlement of actual costs as set out
      in # 9 below.

6.    In the event that by a prudent operator decision of ESN, total depth could
      not be reached or a completion attempt is considered not possible, not
      prudent or not deemed warranted by ESN, then ESN will consult with the
      Participant and upon mutual agreement the well will be plugged as per the
      requirements of the Texas Railroad Commission unless otherwise agreed to
      by the parties. If either party desires to plug the well and the other
      party desires to continue operations thereon, the party desiring to
      continue operations shall be assigned the leasehold rights in the
      production unit for the well and the party desiring to discontinue
      operations shall receive payment of its proportionate share of the net
      salvage value of the salvageable equipment in the well, less estimated
      plugging costs.

7.    Actual Drilling Cost and Completion Cost shall be reconciled against AFE
      (estimated) costs within forty-five (45) days after the plugging or
      completion of the well (the "Completion date" herein being termed as the
      date that the well is hooked up in to the tanks and/or pipeline). Once a
      final accounting of the actual "Drilling Cost" and/or "Completion Cost" is
      made by ESN and if the amount paid for the Drilling & Completion by the
      Participant is more than the actual final cost then ESN will immediately
      refund to the participant such overage. However, if said actual cost is
      more than that previously paid by the participant then the Participant
      hereby agrees to immediately pay to ESN such difference.

8.    The AFE attached hereto as Exhibit "B" sets out an estimate for Drilling
      and Completion Costs for the subject well and shall be approved by the
      Participant upon the execution of this agreement. Those costs so
      designated by an asterisk (*) shall be fixed costs and shall not be either
      more or less than that amount as set out in the AFE and shall be
      relatively the same for all wells drilled on the Prospect Acreage. All
      other costs not designated by an asterisk may be adjusted either up or
      down depending on the actual cost when a final accounting is made.

9.    ESN will make a prudent operator effort to re-enter, re-drill and complete
      the subject well as economically as possible. In the event that any goods
      and services are necessary other than those included in the "AFE", such
      costs will be considered as "additional costs" and will be billed out as
      per the terms of this agreement to the Participant. Participant agrees
      hereby to pay such costs and will have 10 days from the receipt of such
      notice to pay its proportionate share of "additional cost". Should the
      Participant fail to pay the assessed amount of any "additional costs"
      within the allotted 10 day period, therefore choosing to go as a
      "non-consent party", then the cost may be paid by ESN and ESN will be
      allowed to recover 400% of that cost paid for the "non-consenting party"
      from its net production share before the "non-consenting party" will begin
      receiving revenue from the property.

                                       2

10.   After the drilling and if prudent the completion of the first well of the
      Initial Wells, the Participant and ESN shall work together to schedule
      subsequent Initial Wells to be drilled on the prospect acreage, an AFE is
      attached as exhibit "B-1". If, six calendar months prior to the expiration
      of the oil and gas lease covering the prospect, there is any acreage not
      held in a production unit or by continuous operations, as defined in the
      oil and gas lease, with no cessation of more than 180 days between wells,
      the non-producing acreage shall immediately revert 100% back to ESN unless
      a well is in the process of being drilled or the parties mutually agree to
      renew the lease.

11.   After the Initial Wells have been drilled or re-entered and completed,
      Participant shall have the right but not the obligation to participate in
      all subsequent wells drilled on the Pecan Station North Prospect on terms
      mutually agreed between ESN and Participant. If Participant chooses not to
      participate or the parties cannot agree on the terms, Participant shall
      retain all Participant's earned right, title and interest, if any, in and
      to the Pecan Station North Prospect and wells drilled thereon, and from
      that time forward Participant shall not have any obligation to participate
      in the drilling of additional wells thereon.

12.   ESN shall be Operator of the Pecan Station North Prospect and wells
      drilled thereon, and the Joint Operating Agreement attached hereto shall
      be executed by ESN and Participant as stated below.

13.   ESN reserves the right to resign as Operator at any time and ESN and
      Participant shall mutually agree on a new Operator in accordance with the
      terms of the Joint Operating Agreement.

14.   The Participant understands there will be monthly operation costs
      associated with maintaining a producing property (ies) for which the
      Participant is liable and expected to pay for its proportionate share.
      When possible the Participant's share of the cost will be deducted
      proportionately from production revenue prior to disbursement of revenue
      checks on a monthly basis. In most cases the revenue should exceed
      expenses, however there may be instances when the production income is
      less than the revenue, in which case the Participant will receive a
      billing statement detailing the overage, which the Participant agrees to
      promptly pay.

15.   Upon the completion of each successful well, the Parties shall execute the
      Joint Operating Agreement (JOA) attached hereto as Exhibit "C", between
      ESN and the Participant, which the Participant hereby agrees to promptly
      execute and return to ESN. Such JOA will govern the operations of the well
      and describe the interest owned by each Participant respectively for
      revenue payments to the Participant. Any conflict between the provision of
      this Participation Agreement and the Joint Operating Agreement shall be
      governed by the provisions of this Participation Agreement.

16.   Within thirty (30) days after completion of a well, ESN shall deliver or
      cause to be delivered to the Participant a recordable Assignment of
      Interest reflecting the Participant's proportionate share of interest in
      and to each producing well and production unit in which the Participant
      has participated.

17.   The rights, duties, obligations, and liabilities of the parties hereunder
      shall be several and not joint or collective. Each Party hereto shall be
      responsible only for its obligations as herein set out and shall be liable
      only for its share of the cost and expense as herein provided; it being
      the express purpose and intention of the parties that their ownership of
      the Lease and the rights and property acquired in connection therewith
      shall be as tenants in common and not as partners. It is not the purpose
      or intention of this Agreement to create any mining, commercial, general,
      limited, nor any partnership of any kind. Purchasers are direct Working
      Interest Owners. Each of the parties hereto elects, under the authority of
      Section 761(a) of the IRS Code of 1954, to be excluded from the
      application of all provisions of Subchapter K of Chapter 1 Subtitle A of
      the IRS Code of 1954.

                             PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

                                Hollins Prospect

WHEREAS; Edwin S. Nichols Exploration, Inc., herein referred to as "ESN", is
currently the owner of or has negotiated for or is in the process of negotiating
for the rights to acquire all or a portion of certain oil and gas properties
herein after referred to as the Hollins Prospect located in the T & P RR. Co.
Survey Block 22, Sections 20, 21, 29 & 30 and containing 1480 acres of land,
more or less, a description of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A".

AND WHEREAS; ESN now plans to develop potential oil & gas reserves on the said
Hollins Prospect by initially drilling three new wells (the "Initial Wells") on
the prospect acreage, those being the ESN # 1-29 Beall, located 750' FWL &
1,500' FSL of Section 29 , the ESN # 1-30 Beall, located 467' FEL & 2,000' FNL
of Section 30, both located in Block 22 of the T & P Survey Nolan County, Texas,
and thereafter drilling of a third well on the Hollins Prospect acreage at a
location to be mutually agreed to by the parties hereto.

NOW WHEREAS; Falcon Natural Gas Corp., herein referred to as "Participant",
wishes to participate with ESN in the drilling of the said Initial Wells on the
Hollins Prospect acreage as stated above for a 75% (seventy-five per cent)
working interest, being a 55.80% (fifty-five & 80/100 percent) net revenue
interest (after taking into account the assignment by Falcon of a 0.45% ORRI
pursuant to a consulting agreement with Wood Roberts, LLC.) on a AFE 1/3 for 1/4
basis under the following terms and conditions:

1.    ESN shall charge and the participant shall pay to ESN the amount of
      $36,750.00 per 40-acre location ("Location Fee") for all wells drilled on
      the Hollins Prospect and upon the execution of this agreement the
      Participant agrees to pre-pay to ESN the amount of $110,250.00 (one
      hundred ten thousand, two hundred fifty dollars) representing the
      Participant's cost for three initial location fees for the above mentioned
      Initial Wells.

2.    The Initial Wells drilled subject to this agreement on the said Hollins
      Prospect will be on an AFE 1/3 for 1/4 basis with the Participant paying
      100% of the cost of drilling and completing into the tanks or pipeline and
      receiving by assignment from ESN a 75% working interest, being a 55.80%
      net revenue interest, Wood Roberts receiving by assignment a 0.45% ORRI,
      and ESN retaining a 25% working interest, being an 18.75% net revenue
      interest carried through drilling and completion into the tanks or
      pipeline. Each of the Initial Wells drilled or re-entered and thereafter
      completed will earn a 40-acre production unit unless the minimum unit
      required for such well to produce 100% allowable is greater, in which case
      the production unit will be increased to satisfy such requirement and the
      location fee will be proportionately increased accordingly.

                                       1
<PAGE>

3.    Subject to the terms of this agreement the parties hereto will drill two
      wells, those being the ESN # 1-29 Beall well and the ESN # 1-30 Beall well
      at the locations set out above and then one additional well of which the
      location will be mutually agreeable between the parties hereto, each well
      being to a proposed depth of +/- 5,900' or deep enough to test the Canyon
      Sand formation on legal drill site units as required by the Texas Railroad
      Commission. Upon the execution of this agreement and payment of the three
      Location Fees to ESN by the Participant, ESN shall immediately attempt to
      schedule a drilling rig to drill the ESN # 1-29 Beall and then immediately
      thereafter the ESN # 1-30 Beall, with the anticipated target spud date of
      the first well being on or about May 1, 2006. Upon a drilling spud date
      being confirmed by a drilling company ESN will notify the Participant of
      the scheduled spud date and thereafter ESN shall invoice the Participant
      for its share of the drilling cost for such wells. On or before 30 days
      from the scheduled spud date of each well the Participant agrees to pay to
      ESN at ESN's address the amount of $343,556.72 for each scheduled well
      which represents the Participant's estimated 1/3 for 1/4 share of the
      drilling and testing cost as set out in the AFE attached hereto as Exhibit
      "B". After the drilling and testing phase of each well ESN will notify
      Participant of the findings and if a completion attempt is deemed
      warranted by the parties, Participant shall have 72 hours from such notice
      by ESN to pay to ESN at ESN's address the Participant's estimated share of
      the completion cost for each well, that being $428,250.05 as set out on
      the AFE attached hereto as Exhibit "B". Failure of the Participant to
      submit its share of the drilling and testing funds for the first two
      scheduled wells within the allotted time period when invoiced by ESN shall
      represent the Participant's decision not to participate in any of the said
      Initial Wells and by so doing shall cause the immediate automatic
      termination of the Participant's right title and interest, if any, in and
      to the Hollins Prospect and wells drilled thereon, and from that time
      forward neither party shall have any obligation to the other and ESN shall
      retain all money previously paid by the Participant, with regards to the
      Hollins Prospect, as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the parties
      agreeing that the damages to ESN would be difficult to ascertain. Failure
      of the Participant to submit its share of the drilling and testing funds
      for any well subsequent to the first two wells within the allotted time
      period when invoiced by ESN shall represent the Participant's decision not
      to participate in any subsequent wells and by so doing Participant shall
      (a) retain all Participant's earned right, title and interest, if any, in
      and to completed wells and those units drilled thereon by the parties, and
      (b) cause the immediate automatic termination of the Participant's right
      title and interest, if any, other than the retained earned interest, in
      and to the Hollins Prospect acreage and subsequent wells and those units
      drilled thereon, and from that time forward neither party shall have any
      obligation to the other, save and except in relation to the Participant's
      retained earned interest, and ESN shall retain all money previously paid
      by the Participant, with regards to the Hollins Prospect, as liquidated
      damages, and not as a penalty, the parties agreeing that the damages to
      ESN would be difficult to ascertain. Notwithstanding anything to the
      contrary a dry hole will not earn any acreage allocated to the dry hole.

4.    ESN will attempt to drill, and if prudent, complete each of said three
      Initial Wells for the estimated cost as set out in the AFE attached hereto
      as Exhibit "B" with $343,556.72 being allocated to drilling & testing
      cost, herein referred to as Drilling Cost, and $428,250.05 being allocated
      to completion, herein referred to as Completion Cost, all being on a 1/3
      for 1/4 basis, meaning that the Participant will pay 100% of the AFE'd
      cost and shall receive 75% of the working interest and ESN shall receive
      25% carried working interest.

5.    After drilling each of the Initial Wells, if a completion attempt is
      deemed warranted by ESN and Participant, then ESN will notify the
      Participant of such completion and ESN shall make available any
      information available to ESN concerning each well and the Participant
      shall have 72 hours from the date of notice from ESN to pay to ESN at
      ESN's address, the Participant's proportionate share of the AFE Completion
      Cost for each well as set out above. Failure of the Participant to pay its
      share of the AFE Completion Cost within the allotted time will result in
      Participant's decision not to participate in the completion of such well
      and the immediate forfeiture of all right title and interest by the
      Participant in and to the subject well and ESN and the Participant shall
      have no further obligation to the other with respect to the said well and
      drilling unit except that settlement of actual costs as set out in
      paragraph 8 below.

6.    In the event that by a prudent operator decision of ESN, total depth could
      not be reached or a completion attempt is considered not possible or, not
      prudent or warranted by ESN, then ESN will consult with the Participant
      and upon mutual agreement the well will be plugged as per the requirements
      of the Texas Railroad Commission unless otherwise agreed to by the
      parties.

7.    A final accounting of actual costs will be made within 45 days of plugging
      or completion of each well. (A well shall be deemed completed when it is
      hooked up and capable of producing into the tanks and/or pipeline.) Once a
      final accounting of the actual Drilling Cost and/or Completion Cost is
      made by ESN and if the AFE amount paid for the Drilling & Completion by
      the Participant is more than the actual final cost then ESN will
      immediately refund to the participant such overage. However, if said
      actual cost is more than the AFE previously paid by the Participant, then
      the Participant hereby agrees to immediately pay to ESN such difference.

8.    The AFE attached hereto as Exhibit "B" sets out an estimate for Drilling
      and Completion Costs for each of the Initial Wells and shall be approved
      by the Participant upon the execution of this agreement. Those costs so
      designated by an asterisk (*) shall be fixed costs and shall not be either
      more or less than that amount as set out in the AFE and shall be
      relatively the same for all wells drilled on the Hollins Prospect Acreage.
      All other costs not designated by an asterisk may be adjusted either up or
      down depending on the actual cost when a final accounting is made.

9.    ESN will make a reasonably prudent operator's effort to re-enter,
      re-drill, drill and complete wells on the subject acreage as economically
      as possible. In the event that any goods and services are necessary other
      than those included in the AFE, such costs will be considered as
      "additional costs" and will be billed out as per the terms of this
      agreement to the Participant. The Participant hereby agrees to pay said
      costs within 10 days from the receipt of such notice to pay its
      proportionate share of "additional cost". Should the Participant fail to
      pay the assessed amount of any "additional costs" within the allotted 10
      day period, therefore choosing to go as a "non-consent party", then the
      cost may be paid by ESN and ESN will be allowed to recover 400% of that
      cost paid for the "non-consenting party" including operating costs from
      its net production share before the "non-consenting party" will begin
      receiving any revenue from any wells on the Hollins Prospect.

10.   On or about, but not before, 60 days of the plugging or first production
      of the latter drilled of the first two proposed wells ESN will propose to
      drill the 3rd well of the Initial Wells and the participant shall have 10
      days from such notice in which to notify ESN in writing as to
      Participant's desire to participate or not to participate in the drilling
      of the said well. Participant's choice not to participate or not to
      respond shall be deemed the Participant's choice not to proceed with the
      drilling of the third well and thereby will result in the Participant's
      loss of any right title or interest, if any, in and to the Hollins
      Prospect and all locations not previously drilled under this agreement
      including the Participant's right to continue drilling wells on the
      prospect acreage, save and except that the Participant shall retain its
      interest in previously completed wells.

11.   On or about, but not before, 60 days from the date of the plugging or
      first production of the third Initial Well ESN shall commence proposing
      subsequent wells to be drilled on mutually agreeable terms and well sites
      in units of three wells every 120 days, subject to rig availability, on
      the Hollins Prospect acreage, in which Participant shall have the right
      but not the obligation to participate. Participant shall have 15 days from
      such proposal and notice by ESN to pay to ESN at ESN's address the amount
      as stated above for three additional Location Fees. Should Participant
      fail to pay said Location Fees within the allotted 15 day period, or if
      the parties cannot agree on terms or locations within the time period,
      then Participant shall have no right to continue to participate in the
      drilling of wells on the Hollins Prospect, and all of Participant's right
      and interest shall automatically terminate with respect to the Hollins
      Prospect, save and except the interest in wells previously drilled under
      this agreement on the Prospect Acreage. Should the Participant fail to
      tender its share of the AFE Drill and Test Cost within 15 days of notice
      from ESN of proposed wells then the Participant shall have no right to
      continue to participate in the drilling of wells on the Hollins Prospect,
      and the Participant's right and interest shall automatically terminate,
      save and except the interest in wells previously drilled under this
      agreement on the Prospect Acreage. Participant will be entitled to
      participate in the drilling and development of the Hollins Prospect in
      units of 3 wells at a time and only if it has participated in the
      preceding unit, otherwise, Participant will have no right to participate
      in any other acreage in the Hollins Prospect. ESN shall propose unit wells
      on or about, but not before, 60 days from the date of first production or
      plugging of the last well drilled in the preceding unit. Participant shall
      pay ESN Location Fees for each new proposed unit well within 15 days of
      such notice of proposed wells and Participant shall pay the AFE drilling
      cost for the next 3 wells 30 days prior to the next rig availability date
      of each well.

12.   ESN shall be Operator of the Hollins Prospect and wells drilled thereon,
      and the Joint Operating Agreement attached hereto shall be executed by ESN
      and Participant.

13.   ESN reserves the right to resign as Operator at any time and ESN and
      Participant shall mutually agree on a new Operator in accordance with the
      terms of the Joint Operating Agreement.

14.   The Participant understands there will be monthly operating costs
      associated with maintaining a producing property (ies) for which the
      Participant is liable and expected to pay for its proportionate share.
      When possible the Participant's share of the operating cost will be
      deducted proportionately from production revenue prior to disbursement of
      revenue checks on a monthly basis. In most cases the revenue should exceed
      expenses, however there may be instances when the production income is
      less than the operating expense, in which case the Participant will
      receive a billing statement detailing the operating expense overage, which
      the Participant agrees to promptly pay.

15.   Upon a successful completion of the subject well(s) and the establishment
      of production, ESN shall prepare and deliver to the Participant the Joint
      Operating Agreement (JOA) attached hereto and a Division Order (DO)
      between ESN and the Participant, which the Participant hereby agrees to
      promptly execute and return to ESN. Such JOA & DO shall govern the
      operations of the well and describe the interest owned by the Participant
      for revenue payments to the Participant. The execution of this Agreement
      shall be deemed the Agreement of ESN and the Participant to the JOA
      attached hereto as if both parties have signed same after production is
      obtained on the first unit, but shall become effective upon the
      establishment of production. Any conflict between the provisions of this
      Participation Agreement and the joint operating agreement shall be
      governed by the provisions of this Participation Agreement.

16.   Within 30 days after the completion of a well ESN shall deliver or cause
      to be delivered to the Participant a recordable Assignment of Interest
      reflecting the Participant's proportionate share of interest in and to
      that producing well and production unit in which the Participant has
      participated.

17.   Any notice provided or permitted to be given under this agreement shall be
      in writing, and shall be deemed to have been duly given and received if
      delivered personally, or sent by overnight delivery service or facsimile
      transmission or within five (5) calendar days of mailing by registered or
      certified mail (return receipt requested) to the party to be notified at
      the following addresses or at such other addresses as shall be specified
      by the parties by like notice:

18.   If any term or other provision of this agreement is held invalid, illegal
      or incapable of being enforced under any rule of law, all other conditions
      and provisions of this agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force
      and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions
      contemplated hereby is not affected in a materially adverse manner with
      respect to either party.
