IMF Update

On 10 February 2011, Downer EDI Limited (Downer) announced that IMF
(Australia) Ltd (IMF) proposed to fund claims of certain current and former
Downer shareholders against Downer.

While no proceedings have been commenced, Downer has now been invited to
enter into discussions, on a without prejudice basis, with Slater & Gordon
Lawyers (lawyers for a proposed class of shareholders who acquired ordinary
Downer securities between 25 February 2010 and 31 May 2010, inclusive),
failing which Slater & Gordon Lawyers advise they have been instructed to
commence proceedings. No details of the amount of the claims have been
provided by Slater & Gordon Lawyers.

This is the first communication Downer has received in relation to this
matter since the IMF announcement was made in February 2011.

If any proceedings are commenced, Downer will vigorously defend them.
