    ASX Announcement Wednesday 21 May 2008
    MACMAHON ANNOUNCES $446 MILLION SCRIP TAKEOVER OFFER FOR AUSDRILL
    OFFER VALUES AUSDRILL AT $2.59 PER SHARE
    Macmahon Holdings Limited (Macmahon) is pleased to announce its intention to make an off-market takeover
    offer (the Offer) for all of the shares in Ausdrill Limited (Ausdrill).
    Under the Offer, Macmahon is offering all Ausdrill shareholders 1.45 Macmahon shares for each Ausdrill share.
    This values Ausdrill at $2.59 per share, or approximately $446 million, and implies a substantial premium of
    32.7% based on the closing prices of Macmahon shares and Ausdrill shares on 20 May 2008. The Offer is
    conditional on Macmahon receiving acceptances for 50.1% of Ausdrill shares, and on certain other conditions
    set out in Annexure B to this announcement.
    A combined Macmahon and Ausdrill will be a leading diversified mining contracting and civil construction
    company, with a market capitalisation of approximately $1.4 billion and membership of the S&P/ASX 200 index.
    The Macmahon Board and management believe Macmahon and Ausdrill have highly complementary
    businesses and customers and the combination will present significant benefits to all shareholders of both
    companies.
    A combination of Macmahon and Ausdrill (the Combined Group) will:
    • be well positioned to benefit from the attractive outlook in the mining contracting and construction
    industries in Australia and overseas over the short to medium term;
    • offer increased geographic spread and improved commodity and line of business diversification;
    • capitalise on both Macmahon’s and Ausdrill’s existing blue chip and government customer relationships
    to extend the range of services offered and be well placed to win further contracts; and
    • have increased equity market scale and a larger balance sheet which will enhance the Combined
    Group’s access to debt and equity capital to fund organic growth as well as to make further value
    enhancing acquisitions.
    Ausdrill shareholders will also have the opportunity to realise a substantial premium for their Ausdrill shares and
    at the same time gain exposure to the significant upside offered by the Combined Group.
    Macmahon Chairman, Dick Carter, said; “In light of the ongoing consolidation in the mining industry, it is
    becoming increasingly important for mining service providers to have the scale to maintain their competitive
    position and to effectively service their customers.
    “A combined Macmahon and Ausdrill will be able to extend the range of services offered to their combined
    customer base. For example, the Combined Group will be able to provide the Macmahon mining customers with
    exploration services and Ausdrill's existing customers expanded mining and construction services.”
    Macmahon Chief Executive Officer, Nick Bowen said that the Offer presents a compelling value proposition for
    Ausdrill shareholders.
    “By accepting the Offer, Ausdrill shareholders can convert their shares into Macmahon equity at a substantial
    premium while retaining an investment in a larger company with greater market liquidity, an enhanced mining
    service offering and a material presence in the high growth market for construction in Australia”.
    “The combination also offers Ausdrill shareholders increased geographic spread, and improved commodity
    diversification through exposure to Macmahon’s significant operations in bulk minerals such as iron ore and
    coal,” he said.
    …2/
    2
    Ausdrill shareholders are also expected to benefit from the attractive investment features of Macmahon. These
    include a substantial order book (currently at $2.1 billion) which has grown at a compound annual growth rate of
    56% from 30 June 2003 to 30 June 2007, as well as a strong management team which has delivered total
    shareholder returns of 639% over the last four years.
    Further information about the Offer can be found in more detail in Annexure A to this announcement as well as
    in the Macmahon Bidder’s Statement, which will be lodged with the Australian Securities & Investments
    Commission tomorrow.

    Annexure A: Further details about the Offer
    Outline of the Offer

    shares. This implies a value for Ausdrill of $2.59 per share and a premium of 32.7% based on the closing price
    of Macmahon shares of $1.785 and the closing price of Ausdrill shares of $1.95 on 20 May 2008. Based on the

    May 2008; and
    • a premium of 20.6% and an implied value per Ausdrill share of $2.35 based on the three months up to
    20 May 2008.
    Offer Conditions
    The Macmahon Offer is subject to a minimum acceptance condition of 50.1%. For details about other conditions
    attached to the Offer please refer to Annexure B to this announcement.
    Benefits of the Offer
    The Combined Group will be one of the largest and most diversified Australian contractors operating in
    the mining and construction industries with strong growth prospects
    The Combined Group will be one of the largest and most diversified Australian contractors operating in the
    mining and construction industries, both of which have strong growth prospects over the short to medium term;
    • the mining and contracting industry continues to benefit from robust global commodity demand; and
    • the construction industry in Australia continues to benefit from ongoing national infrastructure spending,
    particularly on the East Coast where demand for infrastructure is expected to remain strong.
    The Combined Group will have a leading position in the Australian market as well as a strong presence in the
    overseas markets of Africa, Asia and New Zealand. The increased scale and breadth of operations in these
    markets will enhance the Combined Group’s ability to capitalise on these opportunities. Combined, Macmahon
    and Ausdrill will employ approximately 5,000 people.
    The Combined Group will have increased geographic spread and improved commodity and line of
    business diversification
    The combination of Macmahon and Ausdrill will feature increased geographic spread and improved commodity
    and line of business diversification compared to that of Ausdrill's stand alone operations.
    Ausdrill’s shareholders will have increased geographic spread with exposure to new geographic regions on the
    East Coast of Australia as well as operations in Asia and New Zealand.
    Ausdrill shareholders will also gain exposure to Macmahon's operations in the coal and iron ore sectors.
    Currently, Ausdrill’s stand alone sales revenue is heavily exposed to activities in the gold sector, which
    accounted for more than 70% of revenue in the year ended 30 June 2007.
    …4/
    4
    The revenues and earnings of the Combined Group will be spread across mining and civil construction. In this
    way, shareholders will benefit from the attractive infrastructure-driven Australian civil construction market
    (particularly on the East Coast) through Macmahon’s existing civil construction operations as well as the existing
    mining and drilling businesses of Macmahon and Ausdrill.
    The Combined Group will be able to capitalise on both Macmahon’s and Ausdrill’s existing blue chip
    and government customer base to win further contracts
    Both Macmahon and Ausdrill have established key relationships with blue chip customers such as BHP Billiton
    and Rio Tinto, whilst Macmahon has also developed strong construction relationships with key government
    authorities such as Queensland Rail, Brisbane City Council and Main Roads WA. The Combined Group will be
    able to capitalise on these existing customer relationships to extend the range of services offered and achieve
    further contract wins. This is particularly beneficial for both companies due to the ongoing consolidation in the
    mining industry, whereby it is becoming increasingly important for mining service providers to have the scale to
    maintain their competitive position and to effectively service their customers.
    By way of example, the Combined Group will be able to offer Macmahon's mining customers exploration
    services, and offer Ausdrill's existing customers a full mining and construction service. Further, Ausdrill will
    have an opportunity to expand its drill and blast activities in construction via Macmahon’s large existing portfolio
    of work in this area.
    The larger equity market presence and balance sheet of the Combined Group will allow for greater
    access to capital and improved liquidity for shareholders
    The Combined Group will be significantly larger than Ausdrill or Macmahon on a stand alone basis. As at 20
    May 2008, Ausdrill had a market capitalisation of approximately $336 million. Based on the implied value of the
    takeover offer, the combined entity of Macmahon and Ausdrill is expected to have a market capitalisation of
    approximately $1.4 billion.
    The increase in market scale generated by the combination of Macmahon and Ausdrill will enhance the
    Combined Group’s ability access to debt and equity capital to fund organic growth and make further value
    enhancing acquisitions. The Combined Group’s ability to access capital will be supported further by its
    conservative capital structure and larger balance sheet, with net assets of $664 million1, compared to Ausdrill’s
    standalone net assets of only $254 million2.
    Additionally, current Ausdrill shareholders are expected to benefit from significantly improved liquidity within the
    Combined Group. Currently, Macmahon is included in more S&P/ASX indices (including the S&P/ASX 200), has
    greater broker coverage and has significantly greater liquidity than Ausdrill. Since Ausdrill completed its $98
    million equity placement in December 2007, Macmahon’s shares have been approximately three times more
    liquid3 than Ausdrill’s shares.
    …5/

    average shares outstanding over that period

    Ausdrill shareholders will be offered an investment in Macmahon, an S&P/ASX 200 entity with attractive
    investment features
    The Offer gives Ausdrill shareholders the opportunity to become shareholders in Macmahon, a member of the
    S&P/ASX 200 index with a market capitalisation of approximately $954 million as at 20 May 2008. Macmahon is
    a top tier contract mining and construction company which delivers services to clients in Australia, New Zealand
    and Asia.
    Key investment highlights of Macmahon include:
    Strong management team - Macmahon management has significant experience in contract mining and in
    construction with a proven ability to deliver results. This superior performance has been reflected in
    Macmahon total shareholder returns, having delivered total shareholder returns4 of 639% over the past four
    years. This compares to Ausdrill’s total shareholder returns of 291% over the same period.
    Diversified blue chip customer base with high quality contracts - Macmahon has a diversified, blue chip
    customer base and high quality contracts. Macmahon has strong long term relationships with government
    and blue chip corporate customers such as BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto. Macmahon’s current order book
    features low fixed-price risk, with more than 95% of Macmahon’s current order book comprising schedule of
    rates or alliance-style contracts. Since January 2006, Macmahon has won several significant infrastructure
    contracts in Eastern Australia, which have low capital requirements and involve alliance-style payment
    arrangements. Macmahon's growing East Coast presence leaves it well positioned to benefit from future
    growth in infrastructure in Eastern Australia.
    Substantial order book with robust growth - Macmahon’s future revenues are underpinned by a substantial
    order book5. As at 30 April 2008, the order book was at $2.1 billion. This amount excludes the recently
    awarded $1.1 billion contract with Moly Mines which is still conditional on Moly Mines obtaining financing. If
    the Moly Mines contract were to be included in the current order book, the order book would be $3.2 billion.
    The order book has had robust growth, with a compound annual growth rate of 56% from 30 June 2003 to 30
    June 2007.
    Disciplined approach to capital management – Macmahon has a disciplined approach to capital
    management, having not undertaken an equity raising to fund growth since 2005, despite almost doubling
    revenue over that period. This was highlighted when, in October 2007, Macmahon established off-balance
    sheet funding to support the expenditure of its mining operations. By contrast, in late 2007, Ausdrill raised
    approximately $98 million by way of an equity placement in order to fund further organic growth (particularly
    contract mining), augment working capital to fund growth and maintain a conservatively geared balance
    sheet6. Macmahon will continue its disciplined approach to capital management, with management intending
    to focus on delivering improving returns on equity and growth in earnings per share for the benefit of
    shareholders.
    Memorandum of Understanding with Leighton - Macmahon has a Memorandum of Understanding with ASX
    listed Leighton Holdings, Australia’s largest construction and contract mining company with a market
    capitalisation of approximately $15.3 billion. Under this agreement, Leighton promotes Macmahon as a
    “Partner of Choice” to joint venture for large infrastructure and resources related construction projects.
