The home side were the first on the scoreboard as Mike Delany added a penalty to edge Newcastle in front early on, but the lead was short-lived as the visitors started to dominate.
Former Falcons player Will Chudley got the first try of the afternoon for Chiefs, charging down a kick before leaping over, while Julian Salvi was also across a couple of minutes later for his first Chiefs try, powering over the line after a maul.
Exeter continued to get stronger as half time approached, with Don Armand adding two tries before the interval, either side of a Matt Jess effort, as he slid across to mark his 100 appearance for the team with a try.

Newcastle thought they had a try back at the start of the second half as a string of passes helped the home side work the ball from their own try line to send Belisario Agulla over, but a knock on in the build up saw the effort chalked off.
The visitors finally got the first points of the second half on the board inside the final 15 minutes as Moray Low squeezed his way over after a long spell of pressure from Exeter.
The result leaves Newcastle still looking for their first win of the season, while Exeter move back into the top four.
