 markets. Due to the uncertainties inherent in the scale and duration of this
conflict, and its direct and indirect effects, it is not reasonably possible to estimate the impact that such conflict will have on the world economy or the economies of the countries in which we operate and, consequently, on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

The recent U.S. presidential election and the new U.S. global trade policy could affect us.

The presidential elections held in the United States were held in November 2024, and Donald J. Trump has been elected president.
During his previous administration and the last campaign, President Trump has insisted or proposed the imposition of border taxes, significant increases in tariffs and tariffs on certain goods imported into the United States, particularly from
China, Canada and Mexico. He has also stated the need for substantial adjustments to U.S. trade and tax policies, including the renegotiation or termination of its trade agreements (including the T-MEC, which
is next scheduled for review in July 2026), or in having them renegotiated or terminated. The first government measures of President Trump point in the indicated direction, as he has signed decrees to impose tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada,
the European Union, and China, among others. On April 4, 2025, the U.S. government announced a new global reciprocal tariff and tariff schedule, establishing a minimum tariff of 10% for all goods imported into the United States. These tariffs
are set on a country-by-country basis, ranging from 10% for products imported from certain countries (e.g., Argentina), to 50% (with the possibility of escalating to as
high as 145%) for products from China, with certain tariff exceptions currently applied to countries such as Mexico and Canada . As of the date of this document, a 90-day pause in tariffs has been announced,
which would drop to a rate of 10% for all trading partners except China.

Although certain energy products (such as crude oil) have been
exempted, the effects of these measures or any future measures on world economic growth, trade and crude oil demand remain uncertain and may vary over a period of days and with respect to each jurisdiction. In addition, we cannot predict the impact
that such tariffs will have on our exports. In addition, since the announcement of such measure, several countries have begun negotiations to establish reciprocal 0% external tariffs. However, we cannot predict whether these countries will reach an
agreement with the United States
