<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;30, 2005, MasTec, Inc., a Florida corporation (&#147;<U>MasTec</U>&#148;), through its

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In general, the Assets comprise the Seller&#146;s installation of residential and commercial

earn-out based on performance. The Buyer will also assume certain
operating liabilities of the
Seller. The transaction is subject to receipt of customer consent and customary closing conditions
and is expected to close on January&nbsp;31, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its

attached as Exhibit&nbsp;99.2 is hereby incorporated by reference in this report on Form 8-K. The

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On December&nbsp;31, 2005, the executive committee of the board of directors of MasTec voted to
sell or otherwise dispose of substantially all of MasTec&#146;s state departments of transportation

in the fourth quarter of 2005. The decision was made as a result of an evaluation of, among other
things, the short and long term prospects of these projects. At this time, MasTec is unable in good
faith to make a full determination of the estimates required by paragraphs (b), (c)&nbsp;or (d)&nbsp;of Item
2.05 of this Form 8-K. MasTec will file an amendment to this Form 8-K under this Item&nbsp;2.05 within

announced goal of selective acquisitions in core business areas.&#148;

</DIV>



<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>MasTec Announces Intent to Sell State Department of<BR>
Transportation Projects and Provides Related Earnings<BR>
Guidance</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Coral Gables, FL </B>(January&nbsp;6, 2006) &#151; MasTec, Inc. (NYSE: MTZ) today announced its intention to
sell substantially all of its state Department of Transportation related projects and assets. The
projects that are for sale will be accounted for as discontinued operations. Friedman, Billings,
Ramsey &#038; Co., Inc., an investment banking firm, has been retained to assist the Company in its
disposition efforts.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">If MasTec had accounted for these projects as a discontinued operation since January&nbsp;1, 2005,
MasTec&#146;s revenue and income from continuing operations for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30, 2005
would have been $624.6&nbsp;million and $10.5&nbsp;million, or $0.21 income per share, respectively.
Additionally, MasTec&#146;s loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September&nbsp;30,
2005 would have been $13.6&nbsp;million, or $0.27 loss per share.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Austin J. Shanfelter, MasTec&#146;s President and CEO, noted, &#147;The sale of these projects allows us to
focus on our core businesses of providing services related to voice, video, data and energy
infrastructure and for our install-to-the-home clients. This move allows MasTec to grow and focus
on businesses that have acceptable returns on capital and margins.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Today, MasTec also announced related guidance for 2005 and guidance for 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For the fourth quarter of 2005, MasTec expects revenue from continuing operations in the range of
$215-220&nbsp;million. Additional transportation projects revenue estimated at $21&nbsp;million would have
been reported if these projects were not considered discontinued. MasTec expects earnings per
share from continuing operations of $0.14 to $0.16 per share. Loss from discontinued operations
for the fourth quarter of 2005 is estimated at $0.09 to $0.12 per share. An evaluation of the fair
value of the projects and assets that are going to be sold is currently underway and are not
included in this estimate. Any potential asset write downs or other charges, if any, are expected
to be accounted for in the Company&#146;s year end financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">For 2006, MasTec expects revenue from continuing operations, including the acquisition of Ron&#146;s TV,
which was announced today, to be in the range of $950 to $975&nbsp;million, approximately a double-digit
growth rate. Earnings per share from continuing operations for 2006 are expected to be between
$0.70 and $0.80 per share.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Austin J. Shanfelter, MasTec&#146;s President and CEO, said &#147;Fourth quarter results from our core
operations exceeded our expectations from both a revenue and earnings standpoint and have set the
trend for 2006 earnings expectations. The demand for our infrastructure and install-to-the-home
services remains strong. With three consecutive profitable quarters from continuing operations
just completed, we are well positioned to have a successful year in 2006.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Management will hold a conference call on Monday, January&nbsp;9, 2006 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time to
