NIEUWEGEIN, the Netherlands, September 1, 2010 - Ballast Nedam Infra now has level 5 certification on ProRail's CO2
performance ladder. ProRail uses the performance ladder to reward contractors
who combat climate change. The better their CO2 performance, the higher their
position on the ladder. Having reached the highest level, Ballast Nedam will
receive a 10% tendering advantage on submissions to ProRail.

Ballast Nedam reached this highest level by developing a system that
enables its main suppliers to calculate their energy consumption, CO2
emissions, and energy costs. This A-category consists of almost 300
suppliers, who together account for at least 80% of Ballast Nedam's purchase
turnover.

This certification means that Ballast Nedam has achieved its
sustainability objective for 2010, in terms of ProRail's CO2 performance
ladder. It also means that the company is well prepared for the increasing
use of comparable performance ladders by governmental and semi-governmental
bodies.
