 CEMEX ESPAÑA, S.A., a corporation organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Spain (“CEMEX España”), and its wholly owned indirect Subsidiary CEMEX FINANCE LLC, formerly
CEMEX España Finance LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware (the “Company”), agree with the Purchasers listed on the attached Schedule A (the “Purchasers”) to this Note
Purchase Agreement (as amended, modified or supplemented, this “Agreement”) as follows: 
 Recitals

 WHEREAS, pursuant to a Consolidated Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement dated as of August 14, 2009 (as
amended, the “2009 Note Purchase Agreement”), the Company issued $882,407,495.57 aggregate principal amount of its 8.91% Senior Notes, Series A, due 2014 (the “2009 Series A Notes”), and ¥1,185,389,696.06
aggregate principal amount of its 6.625% Senior Notes, Series B, due 2014 (the “2009 Series B Notes”, and, together with the 2009 Series A Notes, the “Old Notes”), to the purchasers named on Schedule A thereto
(together with any persons who became subsequent purchasers of Old Notes in accordance with Section 13.2 of the 2009 Note Purchase Agreement, the “2009 Noteholders”); 

WHEREAS, the Purchasers have elected (i) to unilaterally, unconditionally and irrevocably extinguish the amounts and any other
obligations owing to them under the Old Notes and the 2009 Note Purchase Agreement (the “Extinguishments”) and for the New Notes (as defined herein) to be issued to them; and (ii) to enter into the Facilities Agreement (as
defined herein); 
 WHEREAS, in connection with the Extinguishments, the Old Notes held by each Purchaser as a
“holder” under the 2009 Note Purchase Agreement will be returned and cancelled, all as provided herein and in the Facilities Agreement (as defined herein); 
 WHEREAS, the Purchasers are entering into that certain Facilities Agreement dated on or about the date hereof among CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V., a stock corporation organized under the laws of the United
Mexican States (the “Parent”), each of the borrowers, guarantors and security providers listed in Part I of Schedule 1 thereto, the other financial institutions listed in Part II of Schedule 1 thereto, the agent
named therein and the security agent named therein (as amended, restated, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Facilities Agreement”); and 

  
 1 








 WHEREAS, CEMEX España, the Company and the Purchasers desire to enter into this
Agreement to provide for the issuance of the New Notes (as defined herein) with terms and conditions consistent with those specified for such New Notes in the Facilities Agreement and subject always to the terms of the Facilities Agreement.

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  

	1.	AUTHORIZATION OF NEW NOTES. 

 The Company will authorize the issuance of $106,586,333.79 aggregate principal amount of its 9.66% Senior Notes due February 14, 2017 (the “New Notes”), such term to include any
Additional New Notes, and any such notes issued in substitution therefor pursuant to Section 13 of this Agreement). The New Notes shall be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit 1 with such changes therefrom, if any, as may be
approved by the Purchasers and the Company. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Schedule B; references to a “Schedule” or an “Exhibit” are, unless otherwise specified, to a Schedule or an
Exhibit attached to this Agreement. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement but not defined in Schedule B have the meanings ascribed to them in the Facilities Agreement. 

 

	2.	RETURN OF OLD NOTES; ISSUANCE OF NEW NOTES. 

 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Facilities Agreement, upon delivery by each Purchaser to the Company of the Old Notes held by it in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3, each Purchaser shall receive from the Company New Notes in the principal amount specified opposite such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A. The obligations of each Purchaser hereunder are several and not joint obligations and
no Purchaser shall have any liability to any other Person for the performance or non-performance by any other Purchaser hereunder. Upon the issuance of New Notes following the delivery of Old Notes held by the Purchasers or an executed Certificate
Regarding Lost Note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2 (the “Lost Note Certificate”) to the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 3, the Old Notes delivered by such Purchasers (or in respect of which
a Lost Note Certificate is delivered by such Purchasers) shall be cancelled. 
  

	3.	CLOSING. 

 The return of
the Old Notes to the Company and the issuance of the New Notes to the Purchasers shall occur at the offices of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, LLP, Four Times Square, New York, New York, at 8:00 a.m., New York time, at a closing (the
“Closing”) on the Effective Date. At the Closing, each Purchaser shall deliver its Old Note(s) or Lost Note Certificate to the Company. Upon the delivery of the Old Notes to the Company by each Purchaser, the Company will deliver to
each Purchaser New Notes in the form of a single New Note (or such greater number of New Notes in denominations of at least $200,000, as such Purchaser may request) in the principal amount specified opposite such Purchaser’s name on


  
 2 








 
Schedule A, dated the date of the Closing and registered in the name of such Purchaser (or in the name of such Purchaser’s nominee). If at the Closing the Company shall fail to
tender such New Notes to any Purchaser as provided above in this Section 3, and such Purchaser shall have delivered its Old Notes or Lost Note Certificate to the Company, or any of the conditions specified in Section 4 shall not have been
fulfilled to any Purchaser’s reasonable satisfaction, such Purchaser shall, at such Purchaser’s election, be relieved of all further obligations under this Agreement, without thereby waiving any rights such Purchaser may have by reason of
such failure or such nonfulfillment. 
  

	4.	CONDITIONS TO CLOSING. 


The obligation of each Purchaser to deliver its Old Note(s) to the Company and accept the delivery of New Notes at the Closing is subject
to the fulfillment to such Purchaser’s satisfaction, prior to or at the Closing, of the following conditions. If any Purchaser does not deliver its Old Note(s), the Company will require a Lost Note Certificate. 

 

	 	4.1.	Representations and Warranties. 

 The representations and warranties of CEMEX España and the Company in the Facilities Agreement shall be correct when made and at the time of the Closing (except for such representations and
warranties made as of a specific earlier date).

	 	4.4.	Issuance of New Notes Permitted By Applicable Law, etc. 

 On the date of the Closing, the return and cancellation of the Old Notes held by the Purchasers and the issuance of the New Notes to the Purchasers shall (a) be permitted by the laws and regulations
of each jurisdiction to which each Purchaser is subject, without recourse to provisions (such as Section 1405(a)(8) of the New York Insurance Law) permitting limited investments by insurance companies without restriction as to the character of
the particular investment and (b) not violate any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, 

  
 3 








 
Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). If requested by any Purchaser, such Purchaser shall have received an Officer’s Certificate certifying as to
such matters of fact as such Purchaser may reasonably specify to enable such Purchaser to determine whether such return, cancellation and issuance is so permitted. 
  

	 	4.5.	Facilities Agreement. 

 Parent and CEMEX España, and all other parties to the Facilities Agreement, shall have executed and delivered the Facilities Agreement, and the conditions precedent to the effectiveness of the
Facilities Agreement as set forth therein under the definition of “Effective Date” shall have occurred or been waived in accordance with the provisions of the Facilities Agreement. 

 

	 	4.6.	Payment of Special Counsel Fees. 

 Without limiting the provisions of Section 15.1, the Company shall have paid on or before the Closing the fees, charges and disbursements of the Purchasers’ special counsel to the extent
reflected in a statement of such counsel rendered to the Company at least three Business Days prior to the Closing.

from the date of the Closing to and including December 31, 2017, and the Purchasers shall have received evidence of such acceptance. 
  

	5.	THE FACILITIES AGREEMENT. 


To the maximum extent permitted by law: (i) in the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the Intercreditor Agreement and any
other Finance Document, the Intercreditor Agreement will prevail; and (ii) in the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the Facilities Agreement and any other Finance Document (other than the Intercreditor Agreement), the terms of the

	6.	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF CEMEX ESPAÑA AND THE COMPANY; REPRESENTATIONS OF THE PURCHASERS. 


 

	 	6.1.	Representations and Warranties of CEMEX España and the Company. 


CEMEX España and the Company represent and warrant to the Purchasers that: 

(a) Private Offering by the Company. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered the New Notes or any similar
securities for sale to, or solicited any offer to buy any of the same from, or otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person other than the Purchasers and not more than 59 other Institutional Investors (as defined in clause
(c) of the definition of such term), each of which has been offered the New Notes at a private sale for investment. Neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf has taken, or will take, any action that would subject the issuance of the
New Notes to the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act. 
 (b) Foreign Assets Control
Regulations, etc. The issuance of the New Notes by the Company hereunder will not violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B,
Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, neither CEMEX España nor any Subsidiary (i) is or will become a blocked person described in the Anti-Terrorism Order
or the Department of the Treasury Rule or (ii) knowingly engages or will engage in any dealings or transactions with any such person. 
 (c) Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The issuance of the New Notes by the Company hereunder will not cause any Purchaser to be in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
of 1977 or other applicable national or local law regulating the payments of bribes to government officials or employees. 
  

	 	6.2.	Representations of the Purchasers. 

 (a) Purchase for Investment. Each Purchaser represents that it is acquiring the New Notes for its own account or for one or more separate accounts maintained by it or for the account of one or more
pension or trust funds and not with a view to the distribution thereof; provided that the disposition of such Purchaser’s or such pension or trust funds’ property shall at all times be within such Purchaser’s or such pension or trust
funds’ control. Each Purchaser understands that the New Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may be resold only if registered pursuant to the provisions of the Securities Act or if an exemption from registration is
available, except under circumstances where neither such registration nor such an exemption is required by law, and that the Company is not required to register the New Notes. 
 (b) Accredited Investor. Each Purchaser represents that it is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2) or (3) under the Securities Act or an
entity in which all of the equity owners are accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2) or (3) under the Securities Act. 

  
 5 









	7.	CONSULTATION WITH NOTEHOLDERS. 

 Each of CEMEX España and the Company agrees that if it solicits, participates in or initiates discussion of a substantive nature with any Creditor in its capacity as a Creditor concerning any
matter that, if pursued, in substantial likelihood would result in an amendment, variation, modification, waiver, override, replacement or supplement of any terms of the Facilities Agreement, this Agreement, the New Note Guarantee, the New Notes or
any other Finance Documents and such amendment, variation, modification, waiver, override, replacement or supplement would require a consent by either Majority Creditors, Super Majority Creditors or all Creditors, in each case directly affecting the
Purchasers in a substantive manner, then it shall also promptly consult on such matter in good faith with the Noteholders’ Representative. 
  

	8.	MATURITY; PREPAYMENT OF THE NEW NOTES; INCREASE IN INTEREST RATE. 

  

	 	8.1.	Stated Maturity. 


The entire principal amount of the New Notes shall become due and payable on February 14, 2017 except in the event that any of the
circumstances set out in Clause 5.1 (Spring Back Dates) of the Facilities Agreement occur, at which point the entire principal amount of the New Notes shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Facilities Agreement.

  

	 	8.2.	Scheduled Amortization. 

 Repayment of the New Notes shall be made in accordance with Clause 5 (Repayment) and Clause 7 (Mandatory Prepayment and Segregated Accounts) of the Facilities Agreement. 

 

	 	8.3.	Optional Prepayments. 

 Subject to and in accordance with Clause 6.2 (Voluntary Prepayment) and Clause 6.4 (Right of repayment in relation to a single Creditor) of the Facilities Agreement, the Company may, at its
option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of the New Notes at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest accrued but unpaid thereon to the date of such prepayment. The Company
will give each holder of New Notes written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.3 in accordance with Clause 6.2 (Voluntary Prepayment) and Clause 6.4 (Right of repayment in relation to a single Creditor) of the
Facilities Agreement. 
  

	 	8.4.	Replacement of Affected Holder for Tax Reasons. 

 If the Company or CEMEX España (assuming that CEMEX España is required to make a payment) shall deliver to each holder (each, an “Affected Holder”) to which an Additional
Payment would be payable by the Company or CEMEX España on the occasion of the next payment by the Company or CEMEX España in respect of such New Notes (in the case of CEMEX España, in an amount greater than 10% of the amount
which CEMEX España would have been obligated to pay exclusive of the requirements of Section 14.4) (the date of such next payment in respect of which such Additional Payment will be due is herein referred to as the “Affected
Payment Date”) written notice of a Responsible Officer (with respect to each incident 

  
 6 








 
in which a Related Tax is initially levied by a Taxing Jurisdiction that would result in the payment of an Additional Payment, a “Tax Prepayment Notice”) setting forth in
reasonable detail the nature of the Related Tax in respect of such Additional Payment and confirming that: 
 (a) such Related
Tax is required, under the laws of such Taxing Jurisdiction, to be withheld or deducted from the payment due to such Affected Holders on such Affected Payment Date and that such payment is the first payment in respect of which such particular
Related Tax must be withheld (it being understood that the payment immediately following and reflecting a change in a pre-existing Related Tax shall be deemed the first payment with respect to such Related Tax), provided that if the enactment
of the statute or regulation, the amendment of an existing statute or regulation or the adoption or amendment of a treaty giving rise to a Related Tax occurs less than 180 days prior to the due date of a payment in respect of the New Notes that is
subject to such Related Tax, then, at the election of the Company, the first payment in respect of the New Notes, the due date of which is more than 180 days after such enactment, shall be deemed to be such first payment; and 

(b) as of the date of such opinion, such Related Tax would be required to be withheld from similar future payments to such Affected
Holders; 
 then, in accordance with Clause 37.4 (Replacement of Creditor) of the Facilities Agreement, the Company may replace such
Affected Holder. 
  

	 	8.5.	Allocation of Partial Prepayments. 

 In the case of each partial prepayment of the New Notes pursuant to Section 8.3, the principal amount of the New Notes to be prepaid shall be allocated among all of the New Notes at the time
outstanding in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amounts thereof not theretofore called for prepayment. 
  

	 	8.6.	Mandatory Prepayment upon Disposal of CEMEX España or the Company. 


In the case of a Disposal of all of the shares in CEMEX España or in the Company, each of CEMEX España and the Company shall
ensure that upon completion of the Disposal the New Notes are prepaid in full. 
  

	 	8.7.	Maturity; Surrender, etc. 

 In the case of each prepayment of New Notes pursuant to this Section 8, the principal amount of each New Note to be prepaid shall mature and become due and payable on the date fixed for such
prepayment, together with interest on such principal amount accrued to such date. From and after such date, unless the Company shall fail to pay such principal amount when so due and payable as aforesaid, interest on such principal amount shall
cease to accrue. Any New Note paid or prepaid in full shall be surrendered to the Company and cancelled and shall not be reissued, and no New Note shall be issued in lieu of any prepaid principal amount of any New Note. 

  
 7 









	 	8.8.	Purchase of New Notes. 

 Except as permitted by Clause 8.4 (Prepayment in accordance with Agreement) and Clause 26.1 (Permitted Debt Purchase Transactions) of the Facilities Agreement, to which this Section 8.8
shall not apply, CEMEX España and the Company will not, nor will CEMEX España or the Company permit any Affiliate (to the extent that the Company or CEMEX España controls such Affiliate), to purchase, redeem, prepay or otherwise
acquire, directly or indirectly, any of the outstanding New Notes except (a) upon the payment or prepayment of the New Notes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the New Notes or (b) pursuant to an offer to purchase made by
any Obligor or an Affiliate pro rata to the holders of all New Notes at the time outstanding upon the same terms and conditions. Any such offer pursuant to the preceding clause (b) shall provide each holder with sufficient information to enable
it to make an informed decision with respect to such offer, and shall remain open for at least 30 Business Days. If the Required Holders accept such offer, the Company shall promptly notify the remaining holders of such fact and the expiration date
for the acceptance by holders of New Notes of such offer shall be extended by the number of days necessary to give each such remaining holder at least five Business Days from its receipt of such notice to accept such offer. The Company will promptly
cancel all New Notes acquired by it or any Affiliate pursuant to any payment, prepayment or purchase of New Notes pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, and no New Notes may be issued in substitution or exchange for any such acquired or
purchased New Notes. 
  

	9.	FEES. 

 The Parent shall
pay to each Purchaser the fees described in Clause 12 (Fees) of the Facilities Agreement in the amounts specified therein and in accordance with the provisions thereof. 

 

	10.	INTEREST. 

  

	 	10.1.	Interest Rate. 


Interest on the unpaid balance of each New Note shall initially be at the rate of 9.66% per annum from the Effective Date. Such
interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
  

	 	10.2.	Adjustments to Interest Rate. 

 Interest payable on the New Notes shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Facilities Agreement, including but not limited to Clause 9 (Interest) of the Facilities
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the interest rate be less than 8.91% on the New Notes. 
  

	11.	EVENTS OF DEFAULT. 

 An
“Event of Default” shall exist if any Event of Default (as defined in the Facilities Agreement) occurs under any of Clauses 24.1 (Non-Payment) to 24.15 (Failure to Perform Payment Obligations) of the Facilities
Agreement. 

  
 8 









	12.	REMEDIES ON DEFAULT, ETC. 

  

	 	12.1.	Acceleration. 

 If
an Event of Default described in Section 11 has occurred and is continuing, any holders of the New Notes at the time outstanding may at any time at their option, by notice or notices to the Company, declare their New Notes then outstanding to
be immediately due and payable, subject to the prior authorization of the Majority Creditors of the taking of such action. 

Upon any New Notes becoming due and payable under this Section 12.1, whether automatically or by declaration, such New Notes will
forthwith mature and the entire unpaid principal amount of such New Notes, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be immediately due and payable, in each and every case without presentment, demand, protest or further notice, all of
which are hereby waived. The Company acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that each holder of a New Note has the right to maintain its investment in the New Notes free from repayment by the Company (except as herein specifically provided
for). 
  

	 	12.2.	Other Remedies. 


If the Company defaults in the payment of any principal or any interest on any New Note when the same becomes due and payable, whether at
maturity or at a date fixed for prepayment or by declaration or otherwise, any holder or holders of New Notes at the time outstanding affected by such default may at any time, at its or their option, take action available to it to recover any amount
due to it under the New Notes and this Agreement, other than the taking of the actions under Clause 24.16 (Acceleration) of the Facilities Agreement except as contemplated by that clause. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, and irrespective of whether any New Notes have become or have been declared immediately due and payable under Section 12.1, the holder of any New Note at the time outstanding may proceed, subject to the prior authorization of the
Majority Creditors of the taking of such action, to protect and enforce the rights of such holder by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceeding, whether for the specific performance of any agreement contained herein or in any
New Note, or for an injunction against a violation of any of the terms hereof or thereof, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or thereby or by law or otherwise. 

 

	 	12.3.	Rescission. 

 At
any time after any New Notes have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 12.1, the Required Holders by written notice to the Company may rescind and annul any such declaration and its consequences if (a) the Company has paid all
overdue interest on the New Notes, all principal of any New Notes that are due and payable and are unpaid other than by reason of such declaration, and all interest on such overdue principal and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any
overdue interest in respect of the New Notes, at the Default Rate, (b) all Events of Default and Defaults, other than non-payment of amounts that have become due solely by reason of such declaration, have been cured or have been waived pursuant
to Section 17 and (c) no judgment or decree has been entered for the payment of any monies due pursuant hereto or to the New Notes. No rescission and annulment under this Section 12.3 will extend to or affect any subsequent Event of
Default or Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 9 









	 	12.4.	No Waivers or Election of Remedies, Expenses, etc. 

 No course of dealing and no delay on the part of any holder of any New Note in exercising any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such holder’s rights,
powers or remedies. No right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement or by any New Note upon any holder thereof shall be exclusive of any other right, power or remedy referred to herein or therein or now or hereafter available at law, in
equity, by statute or otherwise. Without limiting the obligations of the Company under Section 15, the Company will pay to the holder of each New Note on demand such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover all costs and expenses of such
holder incurred in any enforcement or collection under this Section 12, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements. 

 

	13.	REGISTRATION; EXCHANGE; SUBSTITUTION OF NEW NOTES. 

  

	 	13.1.	Registration of New Notes. 

 The Company shall keep at its principal executive office a register for the registration and registration of transfers of New Notes. The name and address of each holder of one or more New Notes, each
transfer thereof and the name and address of each transferee of one or more New Notes shall be registered in such register. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, the Person in whose name any New Note shall be registered shall be
deemed and treated as the owner and holder thereof for all purposes hereof, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice or knowledge to the contrary. The Company shall give to any holder of a New Note that is an Institutional Investor
promptly upon request therefor a complete and correct copy of the names and addresses of all registered holders of New Notes. 
  

	 	13.2.	Transfer and Exchange of New Notes. 

 Upon surrender of any New Note at the principal executive office of the Company for registration of transfer or exchange (and in the case of a surrender for registration of transfer, duly endorsed or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the registered holder of such New Note or his attorney duly authorized in writing and accompanied by the address for notices of each transferee of such New Note or part thereof), and
the satisfaction of the requirements of Clause 25.1 (Assignments and transfers by the Creditors) of the Facilities Agreement, the Company shall execute and deliver, at the Company’s expense (except as provided below), one or more new New
Notes (as requested by the holder thereof) in exchange therefor, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of the surrendered New Note. Each such new New Note shall be payable to such Person as such holder may request and
shall be substantially in the form of the New Note originally issued hereunder. Each such new New Note shall be dated and bear interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on the surrendered New Note or dated the date of the
surrendered New Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. The Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp tax or governmental charge imposed in respect of any such transfer of New Notes. New Notes shall not be
transferred in denominations of less than $200,000, provided that if necessary to enable the registration of transfer by a holder of its entire holding of New Notes, one New Note may be in a denomination of less than $200,000. Any transferee,
by its acceptance of a New Note registered in its name (or the name of its nominee), shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Section 6.2 and shall be deemed to be a Creditor under the Facilities Agreement. 

  
 10 










	 	13.3.	Replacement of New Notes. 

 Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any New Note (which evidence shall be, in the case of an
Institutional Investor, notice from such Institutional Investor of such ownership and such loss, theft, destruction or mutilation), and 
 (a) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it (provided that if the holder of such New Note is, or is a nominee for, an original Purchaser or another
holder of a New Note with a minimum net worth of at least $50,000,000, such Person’s own unsecured agreement of indemnity shall be deemed to be satisfactory), or 
 (b) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation thereof, 
 the Company at its own
expense shall execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new New Note, dated and bearing interest from the date to which interest shall have been paid on such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated New Note or dated the date of such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated New Note if no interest shall have been paid thereon. 
  

	 	13.4.	Additional New Notes. 

 In the event that a 2009 Noteholder elects to exchange into the Facilities Agreement in accordance with Clause 25.11 (Acceding Creditors) of the Facilities Agreement (such person, an
“Acceding Purchaser”), following the delivery of Old Notes held by such Acceding Purchaser or an executed Lost Note Certificate to the Company, (a) the Old Notes delivered by such Purchasers (or in respect of which a Lost Note
Certificate is delivered by such Purchasers) shall be cancelled; (b) the Company shall, subject to compliance with any other provision of this Agreement, without the consent of the holders, create and issue pursuant to this Agreement, New Notes
(such New Notes, the “Additional New Notes”) to such Acceding Purchaser that shall have the terms and conditions identical to those of the other New Notes, except with respect to: 

(i) the date of issuance of such Additional New Note; and 

(ii) the amount of interest payable on the first Interest Payment Date therefor; 

and (c) such Acceding Purchaser shall, from and after the issuance and purchase of the applicable Additional New Note pursuant to clause
(b) above, be considered for all purposes of this Agreement and the other New Note Documents a Purchaser and a holder. 
 The New Notes
issued on the date hereof and any Additional New Notes shall be treated as a single series for all purposes under this Agreement; provided that the Company may use different CUSIP or other similar numbers among New Notes issued on the date
hereof and among Additional New Notes to the extent required to comply with securities or tax law requirements. The Company, CEMEX España or any of its Affiliates will not (directly or indirectly) pay or


  
 11 









 
cause to be paid any remuneration or additional compensation or fee to any Acceding Purchaser that was not paid to original Purchasers unless such remuneration or additional compensation or fee
is concurrently paid on the same terms, ratably to each of the original Purchasers. 
  

	14.	PAYMENTS ON NEW NOTES. 

  

	 	14.1.	Facilities Agreement. 

 Payments of principal and interest becoming due and payable on the New Notes shall be made in accordance with Clause 31 (Payment Mechanics) of the Facilities Agreement; provided that, if any
payment of principal or interest that is due and payable is not made pursuant to Clause 31 (Payment Mechanics) of the Facilities Agreement, then such payment shall be made in accordance with this Section 14. 

 

	 	14.2.	Place of Payment. 


Subject to Section 14.1 and Section 14.3, payments of principal and interest becoming due and payable on the New Notes shall be
made in New York, New York at CEMEX NY Corporation, 590 Madison Avenue, 41st Floor, New York, NY 10022. The Company may at any time, by notice to each holder of a New Note, change the place of payment of the New Notes so long as such place of
payment shall be either the principal office of the Company in the United States or the principal office of a bank or trust company in the United States. 
  

	 	14.3.	Home Office Payment. 

 Subject to Section 14.1, so long as any Purchaser or a nominee of such Purchaser shall be the holder of any New Note, and notwithstanding anything contained in Section 14.2 or in such New Note
to the contrary, the Company will pay all sums becoming due on such New Note for principal and interest by the method and at the address specified for such purpose below such Purchaser’s name on Schedule A, or by such other method or at
such other address as such Purchaser shall have from time to time specified to the Company in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of such New Note or the making of any notation thereon, except that upon written request of
the Company made concurrently with or reasonably promptly after payment or prepayment in full of any New Note, such Purchaser shall surrender such New Note for cancellation, reasonably promptly after any such request, to the Company at its principal
executive office or at the place of payment most recently designated by the Company pursuant to Section 14.2. Prior to any sale or other disposition of any New Note held by any Purchaser or its nominee, such Purchaser will, at its election,
either endorse thereon the amount of principal paid thereon and the last date to which interest has been paid thereon or surrender such New Note to the Company in exchange for a new New Note or New Notes pursuant to Section 13.2. The Company
will afford the benefits of this Section 14.3 to any Institutional Investor that is the direct or indirect transferee of any New Note purchased by any Purchaser under this Agreement and that has made the same agreement relating to such New Note
as such Purchaser has made in this Section 14.3. 

  
 12 










	 	14.4.	Tax Indemnification. 

 (a) Payments Free and Clear. All payments to be made by the Company under this Agreement and the New Notes will be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for or on account of,
any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, assessments or fees of whatever nature, but excluding franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by any holder’s net income or receipts (such non-excluded items,
“Related Taxes”) imposed or levied by or on behalf of Spain, the United States or any jurisdiction from or through which any amount is paid by the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the New Notes (or any political
subdivision or taxing authority of or in any such jurisdiction) (a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the withholding or deduction of any such Related Tax is required by law. 

(b) Gross-Up, etc. If any deduction or withholding for any present or future Related Tax of a Taxing Jurisdiction shall at any
time be required in respect of any amount to be paid by the Company under this Agreement or the New Notes, the Company will promptly (i) pay over to the government or taxing authority of the Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Related Tax the
full amount required to be deducted or withheld by the Company (including the full amount required to be deducted or withheld from or otherwise paid by the Company in respect of any Additional Payment required to be made pursuant to clause
(ii) of this Section 14.4(b)) and (ii) except as expressly provided below, pay to each holder entitled under this Agreement to receive the payment from which the amount referred to in the foregoing clause (i) has been so deducted
or withheld such additional amount as is necessary in order that the amount received by such holder after any required deduction or withholding of Related Tax (including, without limitation, any required deduction, withholding or other payment of
Related Tax on or with respect to such additional amount) shall equal the amount such holder would have received had no such deduction, withholding or other payment of Related Tax been paid (the “Additional Payment”), and if any
holder pays any amount in respect of any Related Tax on any payment due from the Company hereunder or under the New Notes, or penalties or interest thereon, then the Company shall reimburse such holder for that payment upon demand, provided that no
payment of any Additional Payment, or of any such reimbursement in respect of any such payment made by any such holder, shall be required to be made for or on account of: 

(A) any Related Tax that would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between
such holder and the Taxing Jurisdiction or any territory or possession or area subject to the jurisdiction of the Taxing Jurisdiction, other than the mere holding of the relevant New Note, including, without limitation, such holder’s being or
having been a citizen or resident thereof, or being or having been present or engaged in a trade or business therein or having an establishment therein; 
 (B) any such holder that is not a resident of the United States of America or, with respect to any payment hereunder or under the New Notes owing to such holder, all or any part of which represents income
that is not subject to United States tax as income of a resident of the United States of America to the extent that, had such holder been a resident of the United States of America or had the payment been so subject to United States tax, or had the


  
 13 









 
payment been made to a location within the United States of America, the provisions of a statute, treaty or regulation of the Taxing Jurisdiction would have enabled an exemption to be claimed
from the Related Tax in respect of which an Additional Payment would otherwise have been payable; or 
 (C) any
combination of the items or conditions described in clause (A) or clause (B) of this Section 14.4(b); and 
 provided further
that the Company shall not be obliged to pay any Additional Payment to any holder of a New Note in respect of Related Taxes to the extent such Related Taxes exceed the Related Taxes that would have been payable but for the delay or failure by such
holder (after receiving a written request from CEMEX España or the Company to make such filing and including copies (together with instructions in English) of forms, certificates, documents, applications or other reasonably required evidence
(collectively, “Forms”) to be filed) in the filing with an appropriate Governmental Authority or otherwise of Forms required to be filed by such holder to avoid or reduce such Related Taxes and that in the case of any of the
foregoing would not result in any confidential income tax return information being revealed, either directly or indirectly, to any Person and such delay or failure could have been lawfully avoided by such holder, provided that such holder shall be
deemed to have satisfied the requirements of this proviso upon the good faith completion and submission of such Forms as may be specified in a written request of the Company no later than 45 days after receipt by such holder of such written request.

 (c) Official Receipt. If the Company shall make any such Additional Payment, it will promptly furnish each holder
receiving such Additional Payment under this Section 14.4 an official receipt issued by the relevant taxation or other authorities involved for all amounts deducted or withheld as aforesaid. 

(d) Other. Each holder agrees to use its best efforts to comply (after a reasonable period to respond) with a written request of
the Company delivered to such holder to provide information (other than any confidential or proprietary information) concerning the nationality, residence or identity of such holder, and to make such declaration or other similar claim or reporting
requirement regarding such information (copies of the forms of which declaration, claim or reporting requirement shall have been provided to such holder by the Company), that is required by a statute, treaty or regulation of the Taxing Jurisdiction
as a precondition to exemption from all or part of any Related Tax. The Company agrees to reimburse each holder for such holder’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, if any, incurred in complying with any such request of such Person. 

(e) Tax Refund. If the Company makes an Additional Payment under this Section 14.4 for the account of any Person and such
Person is entitled to a refund of any portion of the tax (a “Tax Refund”), to which such payment is attributable, and such Tax Refund may be obtained by filing one or more Forms, then such Person shall after receiving a written
request therefor from the Company (which request shall specify in reasonable detail the Forms to be filed), file such Forms. If such Person subsequently receives such Tax Refund, and such Person is readily able to identify the Tax Refund as being
attributable to the tax with respect to which an Additional Payment was made, then such Person shall reimburse the Company such amount as 

  
 14 









 
such Person shall determine acting in good faith to be the proportion of the Tax Refund, together with any interest received thereon, attributable to such Additional Payment as will leave such
Person after the reimbursement (including such interest) in no better or worse position than it would have been if the Additional Payment had not been required. Nothing in this clause (e) shall obligate any holder to disclose any information
regarding its tax affairs or computations to the Company. 
 (f) Survival. The obligations of the Company and the holders
under this Section 14.4 shall survive the payment in full of the New Notes and the termination of this Agreement. 
  

	 	14.5.	Currency of Payment. 

 (a) Payment in Dollars. All payments under the New Notes shall be made in Dollars. 
 (b) Certain Expenses. If any expense required to be reimbursed pursuant to this Agreement or the New Notes is originally incurred in a currency other than Dollars, the Company shall nonetheless
make reimbursement of that expense in Dollars, in an amount equal to the amount in Dollars that would have been required for the Person that incurred such expense to have purchased, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the sum paid in such
other currency (after any premium and costs of exchange) on the day that expense was originally incurred. 
 (c) Payments Not
in Dollars. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of the Company in respect of any amount due under or in respect of this Agreement and the New Notes shall (notwithstanding any payment in any other currency, whether
as a result of any judgment or order or the enforcement thereof, the realization of any security, the liquidation of any Obligor, any voluntary payment by any Obligor or otherwise) be discharged only to the extent of the amount in Dollars that each
holder entitled to receive such payment may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase with the sum paid in such other currency (after any premium and costs of exchange) on the Business Day immediately following the day on which such
holder receives such payment. If the amount in Dollars that may be so purchased for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the Company shall indemnify and save harmless such holder from and against all loss or damage arising out of or
as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the New Notes, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall
apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by such holder from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement or the New Notes or
under any judgment or order. 
  

	15.	EXPENSES, ETC. 

  

	 	15.1.	Transaction Expenses. 

 Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Company and CEMEX España will pay all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees


  
 15 









 
of one special U.S. counsel) incurred by the Purchasers in connection with such transactions and in connection with any amendments, waivers or consents under or in respect of this Agreement, the
Finance Documents, the New Note Guarantee or the New Notes (whether or not such amendment, waiver or consent becomes effective), including, without limitation: (a) the costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or defending (or determining
whether or how to enforce or defend) any rights under this Agreement, the Finance Documents, the New Note Guarantee or the New Notes or in responding to any subpoena or other legal process or informal investigative demand issued in connection with
this Agreement, the Finance Documents, the New Note Guarantee or the New Notes, or by reason of being a holder of any New Note; (b) the costs and expenses, including financial advisors’ fees, incurred in connection with the insolvency or
bankruptcy of the Company, CEMEX España or any Subsidiary, the Parent or any subsidiary of the Parent or in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the transactions contemplated hereby, by the New Note Guarantee and by the New Notes;
and (c) the fees and costs incurred in connection with the initial filing of this Agreement and all related documents and financial information, and all subsequent annual and interim filings of documents and financial information related to
this Agreement (provided the Company shall not be required to pay more than $2,500 per year in respect of subsequent annual and interim filings), with the SVO. The Company and CEMEX España will pay, and will save each Purchaser and
each other holder of a New Note harmless from, all claims in respect of the fees, costs or expenses, if any, of brokers and finders (other than those retained by any Purchaser). Amounts payable pursuant to this Section 15.1 shall be payable in
Dollars. 
  

	 	15.2.	Survival. 

 The
obligations of the Company and CEMEX España under this Section 15 will survive the payment or transfer of any New Note, the enforcement, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the New Note Guarantee or the New Notes, the
termination of this Agreement and the termination of the Facilities Agreement. 
  

	16.	SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; ENTIRE AGREEMENT. 

 All representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the related New Notes, the purchase or transfer by any Purchaser of any such New Note or
portion thereof or interest therein and may be relied upon by any subsequent holder of any such New Note, regardless of any investigation made at any time by or on behalf of any Purchaser or any other holder of any such New Note. All statements
contained in any certificate or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Company or CEMEX España pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed representations and warranties of the Company or CEMEX España, as applicable, under
this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement, the New Notes, the New Note Guarantee and the Finance Documents (to the extent applicable) embody the entire agreement and understanding between the Purchasers and the Company and
CEMEX España and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. 

  
 16 










	17.	AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. 

  

	 	17.1.	Requirements. 


This Agreement, the New Note Guarantee and the New Notes may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof or of the New Notes may be
waived (either retroactively or prospectively), with (and only with) the written consent of CEMEX España, the Company and the Required Holders, except that (a) no amendment or waiver of any of the provisions of Section 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 10 or 21 hereof, or any defined term (as it is used in any such Section), will be effective as to any holder unless consented to by such holder in writing and (b) no such amendment or waiver may, without the written consent of the holder
of each New Note at the time outstanding affected thereby, (i) subject to the provisions of Section 12 relating to acceleration or rescission, change the amount or time of any prepayment or payment of principal of, or reduce the rate or
change the time of payment or method of computation of interest on, the New Notes, (ii) change the percentage of the principal amount of the New Notes the holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment or waiver or
(iii) amend Section 8, 11, 12, 14.5, 14.6, 17 or 20; provided, however, that if in accordance with Clause 37 (Amendments and Waivers) of the Facilities Agreement, the requisite Creditors consent to any amendment to or waiver
of any provision of the Facilities Agreement, the holders of New Notes shall be deemed to have consented to such amendment to or waiver under this Agreement, the New Note Guarantee and the New Notes. If requested, by CEMEX España or the
Company in connection with an amendment or waiver to this Agreement, the New Note Guarantee or the New Notes described in the preceding sentence, the holders of New Notes shall execute a consent to implement such amendment or waiver. 

 

	 	17.2.	Solicitation of Holders of New Notes. 

 (a) Solicitation. The Company will provide each holder of the New Notes (irrespective of the amount of New Notes then owned by it) with sufficient information, sufficiently far in advance of the
date a decision is required, to enable such holder to make an informed and considered decision with respect to any proposed amendment, waiver or consent in respect of any of the provisions hereof, of the New Note Guarantee or of the New Notes. The
Company will deliver executed or true and correct copies of each amendment, waiver or consent effected pursuant to the provisions of this Section 17 to each holder of outstanding New Notes promptly following the date on which it is executed and
delivered by, or receives the consent or approval of, the requisite holders of New Notes. 
 (b) Payment. The Company,
CEMEX España or any of its Affiliates will not directly or indirectly pay or cause to be paid any remuneration, whether by way of supplemental or additional interest, fee or otherwise, or grant any security, to any holder as consideration for
or as an inducement to the entering into by any holder of any waiver or amendment of any of the terms and provisions hereof or of the New Note Guarantee or of the Finance Documents (to the extent applicable) unless such remuneration is concurrently
paid, or security is concurrently granted, on the same terms, ratably to each holder then outstanding even if such holder did not consent to such waiver or amendment. 

  
 17 










	 	17.3.	Binding Effect, etc. 

 Any amendment or waiver consented to as provided in this Section 17 applies equally to all holders of New Notes and is binding upon them and upon each future holder of any New Note and upon CEMEX
España and the Company without regard to whether such New Note has been marked to indicate such amendment or waiver. No such amendment or waiver will extend to or affect any obligation, covenant, agreement, Default or Event of Default not
expressly amended or waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing between the Company, CEMEX España or any of its Affiliates and the holder of any New Note nor any delay in exercising any rights hereunder, under the New
Note Guarantee or under any New Note or under the Finance Documents (to the extent applicable) shall operate as a waiver of any rights of any holder of such New Note. As used herein, the term “this Agreement” and references thereto shall
mean this Agreement as it may from time to time be amended or supplemented. 
  

	 	17.4.	New Notes held by Company, etc. 

 Solely for the purpose of determining whether the holders of the requisite percentage of the aggregate principal amount of New Notes then outstanding approved or consented to any amendment, waiver or
consent to be given under this Agreement, the New Note Guarantee or the New Notes, or have directed the taking of any action provided herein, in the New Note Guarantee or in the New Notes to be taken upon the direction of the holders of a specified
percentage of the aggregate principal amount of New Notes then outstanding, New Notes directly or indirectly owned by the Company, CEMEX España or any of its Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding.

	19.	REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. 


This Agreement and all documents relating thereto, including, without limitation, (a) consents, waivers and modifications that may
hereafter be executed, (b) documents received by any Purchaser at the Closing (except the New Notes themselves) and (c) financial statements, certificates and other information previously or hereafter furnished to any Purchaser, may be
reproduced by such Purchaser by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, microcard, miniature photographic or other similar process and such Purchaser may destroy any original document so reproduced. Each of CEMEX España and the Company
agrees and stipulates that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the 

  
 18 









 
original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding (whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by such Purchaser in the regular course of
business) and any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence. This Section 19 shall not prohibit CEMEX España, the Company or any other holder from contesting any such
reproduction to the same extent that it could contest the original, or from introducing evidence to demonstrate the inaccuracy of any such reproduction. 
  

	20.	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. 


For the purposes of this Section 20, “Confidential Information” means information delivered to any Purchaser by or
on behalf of CEMEX España or any Subsidiary in connection with the transactions contemplated by or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement that is proprietary in nature and that was clearly marked or labeled or otherwise adequately identified
when received by such Purchaser as being confidential information of CEMEX España or any Subsidiary; provided that such term does not include information that (a) was publicly known or otherwise known to such Purchaser prior to
the time of such disclosure, (b) subsequently becomes publicly known through no act or omission by such Purchaser or any Person acting on the behalf of such Purchaser, (c) otherwise becomes known to such Purchaser other than through
disclosure by CEMEX España or any Subsidiary or (d) constitutes financial statements delivered to such Purchaser under Clause 20.1 (Financial statements) of the Facilities Agreement that are otherwise publicly available. Each
Purchaser will maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information in accordance with procedures adopted by such Purchaser in good faith to protect confidential information of third parties delivered to such Purchaser; provided that
such Purchaser may deliver or disclose Confidential Information to (i) such Purchaser’s directors, trustees, officers, employees, agents, attorneys and affiliates (to the extent such disclosure reasonably relates to the administration of
the investment represented by such Purchaser’s New Notes), (ii) such Purchaser’s financial advisors and other professional advisors who agree to hold confidential the Confidential Information substantially in accordance with the terms
of this Section 20, (iii) any other holder of any New Note, (iv) any Institutional Investor to which such Purchaser sells or offers to sell such New Note or any part thereof or any participation therein (if such Person has agreed in
writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (v) any Person from which such Purchaser offers to purchase any security of the Company or CEMEX España (if such Person
has agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such Confidential Information to be bound by the provisions of this Section 20), (vi) any federal or state regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Purchaser, (vii) the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Purchaser’s investment portfolio or (viii) any other Person to which such
delivery or disclosure may be necessary or appropriate (w) to effect compliance with any law, rule, regulation or order applicable to such Purchaser, (x) in response to any subpoena or other legal process, (y) in connection with any
litigation to which such Purchaser is a party or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the extent such Purchaser may reasonably determine such delivery and disclosure to be necessary or appropriate in the enforcement or
for the protection of the rights and remedies under such Purchaser’s New Notes, the New Note Guarantee, the Finance Documents and this Agreement. Each holder of a New Note, by its acceptance of a New Note, will be deemed to have agreed to be
bound by and to be entitled to the benefits of this Section 20 

  
 19 









 
as though it were a party to this Agreement. On reasonable request by CEMEX España in connection with the delivery to any holder of a New Note of information required to be delivered to
such holder under this Agreement or requested by such holder (other than a holder that is a party to this Agreement or its nominee), such holder will enter into an agreement with CEMEX España embodying the provisions of this Section 20.

  

	21.	SUBSTITUTION OF PURCHASER. 


Subject to Clause 25 (Changes to the Creditors) of the Facilities Agreement, each Purchaser shall have the right to substitute any
