STATEMENT REGARDING ENNSTONE PLC
On 20 November 2008, Marwyn Materials Limited ("Marwyn Materials" or "the
Company") announced that it had approached the board of Ennstone plc
("Ennstone") in order to explore a possible transaction which may or may not
involve an offer for the Ennstone shares. Since the initial approach Marwyn
Materials has been unable to agree terms with Ennstone that it considers would
be in the best interests of Marwyn Materials shareholders. Therefore, the
proposal which Marwyn was discussing with the board of Ennstone has now been
withdrawn.
Marwyn Materials considers that the opportunities to secure value-enhancing
acquisitions in the building materials sector have increased in recent months.
The Company is currently reviewing a number of potential purchases.
