Dealing disclosure requirements

Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the City Code, if any person is, or becomes,
'interested' (directly or indirectly) in 1% or more of any class of 'relevant
securities' of Alfred McAlpine or Carillion all 'dealings' in any 'relevant
securities' of that company (including by means of an option in respect of, or a
derivative referenced to, any such 'relevant securities') must be publicly
disclosed by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the London business day
following the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement will continue
until the date on which any offer becomes, or is declared, unconditional as to
acceptances (or, if implemented by a scheme of arrangement, such scheme becomes
effective), lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the 'offer period'
otherwise ends. If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or
understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire an 'interest' in 'relevant
securities' of Alfred McAlpine or Carillion, they will be deemed to be a single
person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the City Code, all 'dealings' in 'relevant
securities' of Carillion by Alfred McAlpine or of Alfred McAlpine by Carillion,
or by any of their respective 'associates', must be disclosed by no later than
12.00 noon (London time) on the London business day following the date of the
relevant transaction. A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in
whose 'relevant securities' 'dealings' should be disclosed, and the number of
such securities in issue, can be found on the Takeover Panel's website at

www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk .

'Interests in securities' arise, in summary, when a person has long economic
exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of
securities. In particular, a person will be treated as having an 'interest' by
virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in
respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.

Terms in quotation marks are defined in the City Code, which can also be found
on the Takeover Panel's website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not
you are required to disclose a 'dealing' under Rule 8, you should consult the
Takeover Panel.
