Dassault Falcon Focuses on the Growing Market in India as the Company Strengthens its Position in Emerging Markets Worldwide

BANGALORE, India, February 4, 2011 - Dassault Falcon is presenting its Falcon fleet of large cabin,
long range business jets at Aero India 2011, starting on February 9th in
Bangalore. The Falcon range of aircraft will be on display alongside the
Dassault Rafale fighter, which will perform in the air display. Dassault
Falcon's share of the Indian market is strong and growing as the benefits of
business aviation are recognized by an increasing number of Indian companies
and private owners. Private investment in India's aviation infrastructure and
support by the Indian authorities are making this dynamic market even more
attractive.

Dassault Falcon currently has over 60% share of the Indian
market for large cabin/long range aircraft and is rapidly consolidating its
position with an increase in local customer support and parts services. An
Authorized Service Center is also under consideration, in addition to the
existing Dassault liaison office in New Delhi which serves both the Indian
military and Falcon operators.

More than 20 Falcon aircraft are currently operating from
airports in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Hyderabad. Another 15 aircraft are
on order for delivery to Indian customers within the next two years. Almost
half of the new aircraft orders are for the Dassault flagship Falcon 7X, the
first business jet certified with a fully-digital flight control system.

In 2010, Dassault Falcon reinforced its position in key
markets such as India and South America - where the company has the largest
market share in its segments - and Asia, specifically China, where aircraft
sales are growing quickly. In India, Dassault built its reputation for
advanced technology and efficient aircraft from its first military sales.
Today, the Indian military operates 50 Mirage fighters. In the business
aviation sector, Dassault Falcon's success has been driven by new models with
exceptional performance, comfort and fuel economy such as the Falcon 2000LX
and the Falcon 7X.

"We have been encouraged about the potential for long term
growth in business aviation in India," said John Rosanvallon, President and
CEO of Dassault Falcon. "Business jets are now seen in the region as a
powerful tool to enable quick and convenient access to customers within the
country, and worldwide. The dramatic growth of the economy and the experience
of travelling on commercial airlines have all contributed to the expansion of
the market over the last few years. The worldwide crisis did not impact our
regional sales as severely, and the second half of 2010 was much active for
us."

The performance of the Falcon fleet is especially valued in
India, where short airfields, elevated runways and high temperatures are
common. The Falcon aircraft are also more economical to operate and more
environmentally responsible than any other large cabin aircraft. Their
efficient design and technological optimization means less weight, 20-60%
less fuel consumption and lower emissions than other airplanes in their
class.

Dassault Falcon aircraft are very well suited to the Indian
customer, offering long range - the Falcon 7X can connect Mumbai to Cape
Town, Bangalore to the challenging London City Airport in the heart of the
City and is the only jet in its category to meet the demanding performance
requirements of the airport with its steep approach and noise restrictions.

"With their exceptional performance and fuel efficiency, I
have no doubt that the Falcon fleet is positioned for long term success in
the region and that we will maintain a high level of market share, "
concluded John Rosanvallon.

To support its growing fleet in India and the increased number
of transient airplanes, Falcon Customer Service has based a Customer Service
Manager and opened a spares distribution center with DHL in Mumbai. Dassault
Falcon has already authorized service centers nearby in Dubai, Jeddah and
Singapore.
