mix concrete in certain metropolitan
areas of Florida and Arizona, of concrete
block in certain metropolitan areas of
Florida, and of aggregate in the
metropolitan area of Tucson, Arizona, in
violation of Section 7 of the Clayton

Cemex, once it obtains control of
Rinker, to divest (1) Ready mix concrete
plants in the metropolitan areas of Fort

Amended Complaint
Plaintiff United States of America
(‘‘United States’’), acting under the
direction of the Attorney General of the
United States, brings this civil antitrust
action to obtain equitable and other
relief against defendants, Cemex, S.A.B.
de C.V. (‘‘Cemex’’) and Rinker Group
Limited (‘‘Rinker’’) to prevent Cemex’s
proposed acquisition of Rinker. Plaintiff
complains and alleges as follows:
I. Nature of the Action
1. On October 27, 2006, Cemex
Australia Pty Ltd., an entity controlled
by Cemex, initiated a hostile cash tender
offer to acquire all of the outstanding
PO 00000
Frm 00039
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
shares of Rinker. The total enterprise
value of the transaction offer when
made on October 27, 2007, including
Rinker’s debt, was approximately $12
billion. The offer was due to expire on
March 30, 2007, but Cemex extended it
until April 27, 2007.
2. On April 9, 2007, Cemex
announced that it had signed an
agreement with Rinker, pursuant to
which Cemex increased its offer to make
the total enterprise value of the
transaction, including Rinker’s debt,
approximately $15 billion. This offer
expired on May 18, 2007, and it is
subject to the acquisition of 90 percent
of Rinker’s shares. As part of the
agreement, Rinker’s Board of Directors
unanimously agreed to recommend to
its shareholders that they accept
Cemex’s increased offer at the higher
price, in the absence of a superior
proposal.
3. Cemex and Rinker both produce
and distribute building materials,
including, among other things, ready
mix concrete, aggregate, and concrete
block, throughout the world.
4. The combination of Cemex and
Rinker would create one of the world’s
largest building materials companies.
Cemex’s proposed acquisition of Rinker
would reduce the number of significant
suppliers of ready mix concrete in
various metropolitan areas in Florida
and Arizona, of concrete block in
several metropolitan areas in Florida,
and of aggregate in Tucson, Arizona.
5. The United States brings this action
to prevent the proposed acquisition
because it would substantially lessen
competition in the production and
distribution of ready mix concrete in the
metropolitan areas of Fort Walton
Beach/Panama City/Pensacola,
Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa/St.
Petersburg, Fort Myers/Naples, Florida,
and the metropolitan areas of Flagstaff
and Tucson, Arizona. In addition, the
acquisition would substantially lessen
competition in the production and
distribution of concrete block in
metropolitan Tampa/St. Petersburg and
Fort Myers/Naples, Florida. Finally, the
acquisition would substantially lessen
competition in the production and
distribution of aggregate in metropolitan
Tucson, Arizona.
II. Parties to the Proposed Transaction
6. Defendant Cemex is organized
under the laws of the United Mexican
States with its principal place of
´
business in Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Cemex
operates in the United States through its
wholly owned subsidiary, Cemex, Inc.,
which has its principal place of
business in Houston, Texas. In 2006,
