(according to documents filed by Rinker with the Australian Stock Exchange),
subject to the Offer, by (ii) 23%, which is the percentage of US Holders of
Rinker Securities (according to Rinker’s annual report on Form 20-F filed on May
23, 2006), and by (iii) the purchase price of $15.85 in cash for each ordinary
share and $79.25 for each ADS. Terms used and not defined in the

CEMEX
ANNOUNCES THAT IT WILL TERMINATE
WITHDRAWAL
RIGHTS WHEN ITS OFFER TO ACQUIRE
RINKER
IS DECLARED UNCONDITIONAL
MONTERREY,
MEXICO, May 10, 2007.- CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: CX)
announced today that CEMEX will terminate withdrawal rights which arise under
Rule 14d-7 and Section 14(d)(5) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
described in Section 7.3 of the Bidder’s Statement if, and on the date that, its
Offer to acquire shares of Rinker Group Limited (“Rinker”) (ASX: RIN, NYSE ADR:
RIN) is declared unconditional.
As
previously announced, CEMEX will declare its Offer to be unconditional if
CEMEX’s aggregate interest in Rinker Shares exceeds 50% on or before June 8,
2007. If CEMEX’s aggregate interest in Rinker exceeds 50% on or before May 31,
2007, then on a day that is no earlier than May 18, 2007, CEMEX will waive
the
90% minimum acceptance condition, declare the Offer unconditional and such
withdrawal rights will lapse. If CEMEX’s aggregate interest in Rinker exceeds
50% on a date after May 31, 2007 and on or before June 8, 2007, which will
result in an automatic statutory extension of the Offer Period for 14 days
after
that time, CEMEX will waive the 90% minimum acceptance condition, declare
the
Offer unconditional and CEMEX will terminate such withdrawal rights on such
date. Rinker security holders should withdraw their tenders
immediately if their willingness to tender into the Offer would be affected
by a
waiver of the minimum acceptance condition.
