Item 7.01  Regulation FD Disclosure.

On March 4, 2010, Valmont Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Valmont”) and Valmont Group Pty Ltd (“Valmont Sub”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Valmont, announced that Valmont Sub will be commencing a recommended cash offer (the “Offer”) for all of the issued and to be issued ordinary share capital (the “Delta Shares”) of Delta plc (“Delta”), a public limited company incorporated in Great Britain and listed on the London Stock Exchange.  Valmont and Valmont Sub issued an Announcement (the “Rule 2.5 Announcement”) of a firm intention to make an offer for Delta under Rule 2.5 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the “City Code”) and Valmont also issued a press release.

The Offer will be 185 pence (UK sterling) in cash for each Delta Share, valuing the entire existing ordinary share capital of Delta at approximately £284.5 million, or approximately $429.7 million based on the exchange rate at the close of trading in New York on March 3, 2010.  Valmont Sub will finance the Offer with cash and committed debt financing which will be provided to it by Valmont.

Delta’s board of directors intend to unanimously recommend that Delta’s shareholders accept the Offer.  Following receipt by Valmont Sub within the applicable timescales of valid acceptances to the Offer in respect of not less than 90% of the nominal value of the Delta Shares to which the Offer relates and of the voting rights attached to those shares (or such lower percentage as Valmont Sub may decide provided that such percentage is higher than 50% of the voting rights exercisable at a general meeting of Delta), subject to the other customary conditions being satisfied and/or waived by Valmont Sub, the Offer will become or be declared unconditional in all respects.

Upon the Offer becoming or being declared unconditional in all respects, Valmont Sub intends, pursuant to applicable law, to acquire compulsorily all remaining Delta Shares on the same terms as the Offer. It is Valmont Sub’s intention that, following the Offer becoming or being declared unconditional in all respects, Valmont Sub will procure that Delta applies to the UK Listing Authority for the cancellation of listing of Delta Shares on the Official List and to the London Stock Exchange for the cancellation of admission to trading of Delta Shares on its market for listed securities.

Delta has agreed to pay to Valmont Sub a termination fee of approximately £2.87 million (inclusive of any VAT unless recoverable), or approximately $4.34 million based on the exchange rate at the close of trading in New York on March 3, 2010, in the event that:  (A) the Delta directors (i) fail to recommend unanimously and on an unqualified basis in the tender offer document that Delta shareholders accept the Offer, or (ii) withdraw or adversely modify the terms of their recommendation of the Offer, or (iii) recommend a competing proposal, or (iv) agree or resolve to take any such action; or  (B) one or more competing proposals are made and a competing proposal subsequently becomes or is declared unconditional in all respects or is completed.

Valmont Sub expects the offer document and the form of acceptance to be mailed to Delta shareholders (and, for information only, to Delta option holders) shortly.  In accordance with Rule 19.11 of the City Code, a copy of this announcement will be available free of charge, subject to certain restrictions relating to persons resident in Restricted Jurisdictions, for inspection on the following websites by no later than March 5, 2010:  www.valmont.com and www.deltaplc.com.  None of the information contained in or linked to Valmont or Delta’s websites shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference or otherwise form a part of this Current Report.

Valmont is furnishing the Rule 2.5 Announcement and Valmont’s press release as Exhibits 2.1 and 99.1 hereto, respectively, both of which are incorporated herein by reference.
