ORDER BOOK AND PROSPECT PIPELINE                                                
Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on 1 December 2008.      
Murray & Roberts is pleased to announce that the Al Habtoor Murray & Roberts    
Takenaka Joint Venture has been awarded the contract for Concourse 3 at Dubai   
International Airport for the Department of Civil Aviation. The project value   
is about AED5 billion, with Murray & Roberts as project leader and its 40%      
share valued at about ZAR6 billion. The contract will commence immediately and  
is scheduled for completion within 29 months by end-April 2011.                 
The Joint Venture recently completed Concourse 2 and Terminal 3 which was       
successfully commissioned in October 2008 and previously constructed the        
Sheikh Rashid Terminal (Terminal 1) between 1998 and 2000.                      
Shareholders will be aware that Eskom in South Africa recently announced that   
it will not proceed with its procurement of a second nuclear power station.     
However, the Group is confident that the South African Government will          
continue to pursue its low to zero emission power generation strategy outside   
of Eskom and will engage directly with the private sector to establish a        
second base-load operator primarily based on modern nuclear technology.         
Murray & Roberts is committed to build further capacity in this field and will  
continue to pursue a meaningful participation in this national strategy.
