RECENT EVENTS: DEREGISTRATION
     On November 21, 2003, Lafarge North America Inc. (“LNA”) filed a Form S-8 registration statement (No. 333-110656) registering LNA common stock, par value $1.00 per share, to be issued pursuant to the Lafarge North America Inc. 2002 Stock Option Plan. On February 21, 2006, Lafarge S.A. commenced a tender offer for the shares of LNA Common Stock that it did not already own. At the conclusion of the tender offer, Efalar Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of LSA, owned over 90% of the LNA common stock outstanding. Thereafter, effective at 4:00 p.m. EDT on May 16, 2006, pursuant to applicable Maryland law, Efalar Inc. merged with and into LNA with LNA as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). All shares of LNA common stock held by Efalar Inc. immediately prior to the Merger were cancelled and all shares of LNA common stock held immediately prior to the Merger by those other than Efalar Inc. were converted into the right to receive $85.50 in cash.
     In light of the Merger, LNA has terminated all offerings of LNA common stock pursuant to its existing registration statements, including registration statement No. 333-110656. In accordance with an undertaking made by LNA in registration statement No. 333-110656 to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any shares of LNA common stock which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, LNA hereby removes from registration all shares of LNA common stock registered under registration statement No. 333-110656 which remain unsold as of the effective date and time of the Merger.
