REMAINING DATES AND TIMES PERTAINING TO THE SCHEME OF ARRANGEMENT PROPOSED BY MURRAY & ROBERTS LIMITED

Further to the announcement on 15 May 2006, shareholders are advised that the Competition Tribunal unconditionally approved the acquisition by Murray & Roberts Limited ("Murray & Roberts") of the entire issued share capital of  Concor on 14 June 2006. This was the only remaining condition precedent pertaining to the scheme of arrangement proposed by Murray & Roberts, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Murray & Roberts Holdings Limited, between Concor and its shareholders, other than Mexican Wave Investments (Pty) Limited ("Mexican Wave"), in terms of which Murray & Roberts will acquire all the shares in the issued share capital of Concor, other than those already held by Mexican Wave ("scheme"). The scheme is therefore unconditional.
