Introduction

In this annual report, references to "$", "US$", "Dollars" or "dollars" are to United States Dollars and references to "Ps.", "Pesos" or "pesos" are to Mexican
Pesos. This annual report contains translations of certain Peso amounts into Dollars at specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. These translations should not be construed as
representations that the Peso amounts actually represent such Dollar amounts or could be converted into Dollars at the rates indicated or at any other rate.

Presentation Of Financial Information

Our financial statements are published in dollars and prepared in conformity with accounting principles issued by the International Accounting Standards Committee
("International Accounting Standards" or "IAS"), which differ in certain significant respects from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which we refer to as "U.S. GAAP." We maintain our
financial books and records in dollars. However, we keep our tax books and records in pesos. We record in our financial records the dollar equivalent of the actual peso charges at the time incurred
using the then prevailing exchange rate. See Note 18 to our Financial Statements for a description of the principal differences between International Accounting Standards and U.S. GAAP
applicable to us and a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP of our stockholders' equity and net income as of December 31, 2001 and 2002 and for each of the three years ended December 31, 2002.
Sums presented in this Annual Report may not add precisely due to rounding.

Forward-Looking Information

This Annual Report contains various forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements regarding, among other things, the financial performance and operating plans for Grupo TMM, S.A. ("Grupo TMM" or the
"Company"). These statements are based upon the current beliefs of our management, as well as on assumptions made by management based upon information currently available to it. The words "believe,"
"expect," "likely" and "anticipate" and similar expressions identify some of these forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties and other factors which
may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
Should management's assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially and adversely from those anticipated or projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their respective dates. We undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.

The
following factors, as well as other factors described in this report, could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements:

Exchange Rates

We maintain our financial records in Dollars. However, we keep our tax records in Pesos. We record in our financial records the Dollar equivalent of the actual
Peso charges for taxes at the time incurred using the prevailing exchange rate. In 2002, approximately 56% of our net consolidated revenues and 51% of our operating expenses from continuing operations
were generated or incurred in Dollars. Most
of the remainder of our net consolidated revenues and operating expenses from continuing operations were denominated in Pesos.

The
following tables set forth, for the periods and dates indicated, information regarding the noon buying rate for cable transfers payable in Pesos as certified by the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York for customs purposes, expressed in Pesos per Dollar. On December 31, 2002, the noon buying rate was 10.37 Pesos per Dollar. On May 30, 2003, the noon buying rate was
10.18 Pesos per Dollar.

Risks Relating to Our Liquidity Position

We were unable to successfully complete our exchange offers and are currently in default under the terms of our 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We also have a significant amount of
short term debt and other obligations. We will not have sufficient liquidity to repay these obligations unless they are extended or refinanced and we complete the sale of our interest in TFM

At December 31, 2002, we had $224.9 million of short term debt with face value of $227.3 million and $176.9 million of the 2003 Notes.
The 2003 Notes matured on May 15, 2003, and we did not make payment of the principal amount thereof or accrued interest on the due date. As a result, we are in default under the terms of the
2003 notes, and such default has resulted in a cross-default under our 2006 notes and under certain other obligations of the Company and our subsidiaries. In addition, as of May 31, 2003, there
was approximately $49.7 million of certificates outstanding that are issued by the
trust established under the Receivables Securitization Facility. The obligations represented by the certificates are currently in default as a result of the default under the 2003 notes. To date,
however, neither the trustee nor the holders of certificates has provided notice of an event of default rapid amortization event, although they may do so at any time. We are required to repurchase the
certificates on June 30, 2003. SeeFactors Relating to Grupo TMM"We have granted a call option under our receivables securitization program,
which may result in our loss of control of Grupo TFM or TFM."Furthermore, we also owe approximately $6.5 million to our affiliate, Promotora Servia, which is due on
June 30, 2003.

We
do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay the obligations described above. There can be no assurance that the sale of our interests in TFM (the "TFM Sale") will be completed
and if it is not completed, we may not be able to arrange an alternative disposition of these assets. In addition, if the TFM Sale is completed, we will still need to take additional steps to meet
these obligations. These steps could include one or more of the following: receipt of the additional amounts payable by KCS upon the successful resolution of the pending VAT claim, sale of other or
additional assets, such as shares of KCS, sales of common stock, refinancing these amounts, or negotiation of waivers or extensions with the holders of these amounts or raising equity in order to meet
these obligations when due. There is no assurance that we will be successful in completing the TFM Sale or taking such additional steps.

If we are unable to refinance or repay the 2003 notes and 2006 notes or if we fail to meet our other obligations, we face a risk of reorganization-related proceedings

If we are unable to restructure or refinance our obligations, holders of the 2003 notes, 2006 notes and some of our creditors, as the case may be, could take
legal action against us, including seeking to institute a reorganization proceeding in the United States or Mexico. Further, we may choose to institute a voluntary reorganization proceeding. On
May 21, 2003, purported holders of approximately $16.9 million of 2003 notes filed a law suit in New York Supreme Court seeking to receive the principal amount and accrued interest due
on the 2003 notes purportedly held by the plaintiffs. We have not yet filed an answer to this lawsuit.

If
any reorganization proceedings were to be instituted in Mexico, we could not predict the duration thereof or the ability of holders of existing notes to influence the outcome of such
proceedings. We are not aware of any company of our size that has successfully completed a restructuring under the new Mexican reorganization law since the current regulation was passed in May of
2000. A reorganization proceeding is likely to result in significant changes to our existing obligations, including the existing notes, which could include the cancellation or rescheduling of all or
part of those obligations. During the pendency of any such proceeding, our ability to operate or manage our business, to retain employees, to maintain existing or create new client relationships, to
continue to collect payments for our services or to obtain any type of funding or financing would likely be materially adversely affected.
We believe that any such adverse effects would be exacerbated if the reorganization proceeding were protracted as the statutory provisions governing this proceeding remain largely untested.

Mexican reorganization laws may not be as favorable to our creditors as U.S. insolvency and bankruptcy laws

The current Mexican reorganization law is based on the largely untestedLey de Concursos Mercantilesenacted in
May 2000 (Law of Commercial Reorganizations), which we refer to as the "LCR," which provides for two distinct proceedings: conciliation and bankruptcy. The conciliation phase lasts up to
185 days, absent protracted litigation. This initial term is subject to extension for two 90-day periods. The objective of the conciliation phase is to reach an agreement between
the debtor and its creditors to restructure the indebtedness of the debtor. The bankruptcy phase does not have a specific term within which it must be concluded. It is expected that both proceedings
are likely to require significantly more time and be significantly more unpredictable than a reorganization or bankruptcy proceeding under U.S. laws. If Grupo TMM were to be declared subject to
reorganization under the LCR, its creditors would have to file a claim in Spanish against the estate of Grupo TMM in Federal District Court in Mexico City, Mexico. Upon the court's recognition
of such persons as creditors of Grupo TMM, such persons' claims would be unsecured and ranked with equal right to payment with all other unsecured claims filed against our estate.

Payment of judgments against us on our obligation would be in pesos

In the event that proceedings are brought against us in Mexico, we would not be required to discharge our obligations in a currency other than Mexican currency.
Under theLey Monetaria de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos(Monetary Law of the United Mexican States), an obligation in a currency other than Mexican
currency, which is payable in Mexico, may be satisfied in Mexican currency at the rate of exchange in effect on the date on which payment is made. Such rate is currently determined and published by
theBanco de Méxicoevery business and banking day. As a result of the judgment conversion to pesos, our creditors may suffer a
significant U.S. dollar shortfall if you obtain a judgment or a distribution in bankruptcy. You should be aware that no separate actions exist or are enforceable in Mexico for compensation for any
such shortfall.

If we were declared subject to reorganization under Mexican law, our creditors may find it difficult to collect payment on their obligations.

If we were subject to a reorganization proceeding in a Mexican court, our obligations, including the 2003 notes and the 2006 notes:



Mexican law and regulations may impair the ability of our creditors to enforce in Mexico certain rights in connection with our obligations

Under Mexican law our creditors rights are limited in the following ways:



If we are unable to restructure our existing debt and the TFM Sale is not completed, our lack of liquidity could severely impact our ability to continue as a going concern

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. However, our independent auditors have stated in their
most recent report that, due to the near term maturity of a substantial amount of our financial obligations and our current liquidity condition, there is substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern
will be dependent upon the successful restructuring of our existing debt, the pending TFM Sale and our ability to extend or refinance our financial obligations, sell additional assets or obtain
additional financing to meet our financial obligations.

Risks Relating to the TFM Sale

Completion of the TFM Sale may increase the risk we will be classified as an investment company

Upon the closing of the TFM Sale, a significant portion of the company's assets will consist of the shares of KCS received in the TFM Sale. As a result, we run
the risk of becoming an inadvertent "investment company" under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Investment Company Act"). Generally, an issuer is deemed to be an investment company
subject to registration if its holdings of "investment securities," which usually are securities other than securities issued by majority owned

11

---

subsidiaries
and government securities, exceed 40% of the value of its total assets exclusive of government securities and cash items on an unconsolidated basis. Registered investment companies are
subject to extensive, restrictive and potentially adverse regulation relating to, among other things, operating methods, management, capital structure, dividends and transactions with affiliates.
Registered investment companies are not permitted to operate their business in the manner in which we operate our business.

The
shares of KCS common stock we expect to receive in the TFM Sale would be considered to be investment securities. However, a company that otherwise would be deemed to be an investment
company may be excluded from such status for a one-year period provided that such company has a bona fide intent to be engaged as soon as reasonably possible, and in any event within that
one-year period, primarily in a business other than that of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities. If the company would otherwise be deemed to be an investment
company under the Investment Company Act, it intends to rely on this exemption while it attempts to redeploy assets, effectuate a combination with another operating business or take other steps to
avoid classification as an investment company.

If
the company has not taken such steps within the one-year period referred to above, the company may be required to (1) apply to the Commission for exemptive relief
from the requirements of the Investment Company Act, or (2) invest certain of its assets in government securities and cash equivalents that are not considered "investment securities" under the
Investment Company Act. There can be no assurance that the company will be able to obtain exemptive relief from the Commission. Investing the company's assets in government securities and cash
equivalents could yield a significantly lower rate of return than other investments that the company could make if it chose to register as an investment company (although there is no assurance we
could successfully register as an investment company even if we chose to do so).

If
it were established that we are an unregistered investment company, there would be a risk, among other material adverse consequences, that we could become subject to monetary
penalties or injunctive relief, or both, in an action brought by the Commission, that we would be unable to enforce contracts with third parties or that third parties could seek to obtain rescission
of transactions with us undertaken during the period it was established that we were an unregistered investment company.

The TFM Sale may not be completed

We have entered into a definitive agreement for the TFM Sale. This agreement, however, provides that completion of the TFM Sale is subject to a number of
conditions, including approval of our stockholders and the KCS stockholders and certain Mexican and United States government regulatory agencies. In addition, the TFM Sale is conditioned upon the
consent of the holders of our outstanding 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We sought such consents in connection with our recent exchange offers but were not successful in obtaining such consents. There is
no assurance that we will be able to obtain any such consent from the holders of the 2003 notes or the 2006 notes or that the other conditions to the TFM Sale will be satisfied. See Item 4
"Information on the Company," Section B "Business OverviewRecent DevelopmentsThe Asset Sales." If the TFM Sale does not occur, we will need to either seek alternative
buyers, find other sources of investment capital or otherwise restructure or refinance our obligations. There is no assurance that we would be successful in finding alternative buyers or that the
terms would be as favorable as the current agreements relating to the TFM Sale. In addition, there is no assurance we will be successful in restructuring our debt or that could find alternative
financing for our short-term obligations.

As
a result of the completion of the sale of our ports and terminals division (the "Port Sale") we have materially reduced our capacity to generate EBITDA and our access to cash flow
generated by our subsidiaries, which will have a material and adverse effect on our ability to service our outstanding obligations as they become due.

Factors relating to Grupo TMM

Our substantial indebtedness, and that of our subsidiary, TFM, could adversely affect our business and, consequently, our ability to pay interest and repay our indebtedness

We and TFM each have a significant amount of indebtedness, which requires significant debt service. As of December 31, 2002, after giving effect to the
recent financings by Grupo TMM and TFM, we had consolidated indebtedness of approximately $1,431.7 million, which includes $1,023.1 million of TFM's indebtedness. Our shareholders'
equity, including minority interest in consolidated subsidiaries, was $905.3 million, and TFM's was $1,042.0 million, as of December 31, 2002, resulting in a debt to equity ratio
of 158.2% and 98.2% respectively. After the completion of the TFM Sale, we will have, on a pro forma basis at December 31, 2002, shareholder equity of approximately $205 million and a
debt to equity ratio of approximately 85%.

The
level of our and TFM's consolidated indebtedness could have important consequences. For example, it could:



As
a result of our high level of indebtedness, we have taken steps to improve our liquidity to meet our financial obligations. Completion of the TFM Sale will significantly change the
nature of our operations and assets. If the TFM Sale is completed, we will no longer have any access to any cash flows
generated by TFM and our ports division and will be dependent upon our remaining operations and the performance of KCS, as reflected in the stock price of KCS's common stock.

Our
and TFM's ability to pay interest and to repay or refinance indebtedness will depend upon future operating performance, including the ability to increase revenues significantly and
control expenses. Future operating performance depends upon prevailing economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, business and other factors that are beyond our control.

We
cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that currently anticipated revenues and operating performance will be realized or that future
borrowings will be available to us in amounts sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, we may have difficulty accessing cash flows generated
by our subsidiaries and joint ventures. See "Risks Related to Our Liquidity Position." If we or TFM are unable to meet our debt service obligations or fund our other liquidity needs, we
could attempt to restructure or refinance our indebtedness, seek additional equity capital or sell assets. We cannot assure you that we will be able to accomplish those actions on satisfactory terms,
if at all.

The indentures relating to our and TFM's debt securities and contain a number of restrictive covenants and any additional financing arrangements we enter into may contain additional
restrictive covenants. These covenants restrict or prohibit many actions, including our ability, or that of our subsidiaries, to:



If
we fail to comply with these restrictive covenants, our obligation to repay our debt may be accelerated.

We may be unable to successfully expand our business

If the TFM Sale is not completed, any future growth of our businesses will depend on a number of factors, including:



In
order to maintain and improve operating results from new businesses, as well as our existing businesses, we will be required to manage our growth and expansion effectively. However,
the management of new businesses involves numerous risks, including difficulties in assimilating the operations and services of the new businesses, the diversion of management's attention from other
business concerns and the disadvantage of entering markets in which we may have no or limited direct or prior experience. Our failure to effectively manage our expansion could have a material adverse
effect on our results of operations.

We have granted a call option under our receivables securitization program, which may result in our loss of control of Grupo TFM or TFM

At the end of 2001, we established a receivables securitization program, pursuant to which: (i) we and some of our wholly-owned subsidiaries sold certain
receivables and collection rights derived from agreements with, or services rendered to, some of their customers to a trust, (ii) the trust issued and sold, and may continue to issue and sell,
certificates representing an interest in the trust to certain qualified investors pursuant to an exemption from registration under the U.S. securities laws and (iii) we received
$23.2 million net of fees and expenses associated with establishment of the program. We received an additional net $30.0 million in October of 2002, and received an additional
$35.0 million on December 23, 2002 from an expansion of the program. The total amount outstanding under the receivables securitization facility at May 31, 2003 was approximately
$49.7 million. Pursuant to certain agreements related to the

14

---

program,
TMM Multimodal, of which we own approximately 97% of the voting shares, granted the trust an option to acquire, upon the occurrence of certain events, that number of Grupo TFM shares owned by
TMM Multimodal as may be necessary to provide the trust with sufficient funds to repurchase, in full, the receivables underlying the certificates by paying an amount equal to all amounts outstanding
under the certificates. This option is exercisable by the trust upon the occurrence of certain events, including the failure on our part and on the part of our subsidiaries, under the securitization
program, to repurchase receivables from the trust in an amount sufficient to permit the trust to prepay the certificates outstanding under the securitization program on or before June 30, 2003,
or upon certain events of default or rapid amortization events. The obligations represented by the certificates are currently in default as a result of the default under the 2003 notes. To date,
however, neither the trustee nor the holders of certificates has provided notice of an event of default rapid amortization event, although they may do so at any time. Exercise of the Grupo TFM option
is subject to the transfer restrictions contained in the Bylaws of Grupo TFM, as well as transfer and ownership restrictions under Mexican law. If the call option becomes exercisable, and the trust
were to exercise the option, we may lose control of Grupo TFM and of TFM, its most significant subsidiary.

TFM's business is very capital intensive

TFM's business is capital intensive and requires substantial ongoing expenditures for, among other things, improvements to roadway, structures and technology,
acquisitions, leases and repair of equipment, and maintenance of its rail system. TFM's failure to make necessary capital expenditures could impair its ability to accommodate increases in traffic
volumes or service its existing customers. In addition, TFM's railroad concession from the Mexican government requires TFM to make investments and undertake capital projects, including capital
projects described in a business plan filed every five years with the Mexican government. TFM may defer capital expenditures with respect to its five-year business plan with the permission
of theSecretaría de Comunicaciones y Transportes(Ministry of Communications and Transports or "Ministry of Transportation"). However,
the Ministry of Transportation may not grant this permission, and TFM's failure to comply with the commitments in its business plan could result in the Mexican government revoking the concession.

TFM's concession is subject to revocation or termination in certain circumstances

The Mexican government may terminate the concession granted to TFM as a result of TFM's surrender of its rights under the concession, or for reasons of public
interest, by revocation or upon TFM's liquidation or bankruptcy. The Mexican government may also temporarily seize TFM's assets and its rights under the concession. TheLey
Reglamentaria del Servicio Ferroviario(Law Regulating Railroad Services or "Mexican railroad services law and regulations") provides that the Ministry of Transportation may
revoke the concession upon the occurrence of specified events, some of which will trigger automatic revocation. Revocation or termination of the concession would prevent TFM from operating its
railroad and would materially adversely affect TFM's operations and its ability to make payments on its debt. In the event that the concession is revoked by the Ministry of Transportation, TFM will
receive no compensation, and its rail lines and all other fixtures covered by the concession, as well as all improvements made by it, will revert to the Mexican government. See Item 4 "Information on
the Company," Section B "Business OverviewRailroad OperationsThe Concession."

Our interest in TFM is held with a third party, and we may not be able to control significant operating decisions

We and KCS are the principal shareholders of Grupo TFM. Although we hold a majority voting interest in Grupo TFM, decisions on certain matters that may be
material to TFM's operations and business require the approval of both shareholders. Differences of views between us and KCS may result in delayed decisions or the failure to reach an agreement, which
could adversely affect TFM's operations and

15

---

business.
A change in the corporate structure of TFM's strategic partners may also adversely affect its operations.

TFM's results from operations are heavily dependent on fuel expenses

Approximately 98% of the locomotives TFM operates are diesel-powered, and TFM's fuel expenses are significant. TFM currently meets, and expects to continue to
meet, its fuel requirements almost exclusively through purchases at market prices from Petróleos Mexicanos, the national oil company of Mexico ("PEMEX"), a government-owned entity
exclusively responsible for the distribution and sale of diesel fuel in Mexico. TFM is party to a fuel supply contract with PEMEX of indefinite duration. Either party may terminate the contract upon
30 days written notice to the other at any time. If the fuel contract is terminated and TFM is unable to acquire diesel fuel from alternate sources on acceptable terms, TFM's operations could
be materially adversely affected. In addition, instability in the Middle East may result in an increase in fuel prices. Since TFM's fuel expense represents a significant portion
of its operating expenses, significant increases in the price of diesel fuel could have a material adverse effect on TFM's results of operations.

TFM may be unable to generate sufficient cash to service or refinance its debt

TFM's ability to satisfy its obligations under its debt in the future will depend upon TFM's future performance, including its ability to increase revenues
significantly and control expenses. TFM's future operating performance depends upon prevailing economic, financial, business and competitive conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond its
control.

If
TFM's cash flow from operations is insufficient to satisfy its obligations, TFM may take specific actions, including delaying or reducing capital expenditures, attempting to refinance
its debt at or prior to its maturity or, in the absence of such refinancing, attempting to sell assets quickly in order to make up for any shortfall in payments under circumstances that might not be
favorable to getting the best price for the assets, or seeking additional equity capital. TFM's ability to refinance its debt and take other actions will depend on, among other things, its financial
condition at the time, the restrictions in the instruments governing its debt and other factors, including market conditions, beyond TFM's control. TFM may be unable to take any of these actions on
satisfactory terms or in a timely manner. Further, these actions may not be sufficient to allow TFM to meet its debt obligations. TFM's indentures and commercial paper credit agreement limit its
ability to take certain of these actions. TFM's failure to successfully undertake any of these actions or to earn enough revenues to pay its debts, or significant increases in the peso cost to service
its dollar-denominated debt, could materially and adversely affect TFM's business or operations.

Certain regulatory and market factors could adversely affect our ability to expand our rail transportation operations

The trucking industry is TFM's primary competition. In February 2001, a NAFTA tribunal ruled in an arbitration between the United States and Mexico that
the United States must allow Mexican trucks to cross the border and operate on U.S. highways. NAFTA called for Mexican trucks to have unrestricted access to highways in U.S. border states by 1995 and
full access to all U.S. highways by January 2000. However, the United States has not followed the timetable because of concerns over Mexico's trucking safety standards. On March 14,
2002, as part of its agreement under NAFTA, the U.S. Department of Transportation issued safety rules that allow Mexican truckers to apply for operating authority to transport goods beyond the
20-mile commercial zones along the U.S.-Mexico border. These safety rules require Mexican carriers seeking to operate in the United States to pass, among other things, safety inspections,
obtain valid insurance with a U.S. registered insurance company, conduct alcohol and drug testing for drivers and to obtain a U.S. Department of Transportation identification number. Mexican
commercial vehicles with authority to operate beyond the commercial zones will be permitted to enter the United States only at commercial border crossings and only when a certified motor carrier
safety inspector is on

16

---

duty.
Given these recent developments, we cannot assure you that truck transport between Mexico and the United States will not increase substantially in the future. Such an increase could affect TFM's
ability to continue converting traffic to rail from truck transport because it may result in an expansion of the availability, or an improvement of the quality, of the trucking services offered in
Mexico.

In
recent years, there has been significant consolidation among major North American rail carriers. The resulting merged railroads could attempt to use their size and pricing power to
block other railroads' access to efficient gateways and routing options that are currently and have been historically available. We cannot assure you that further consolidation will not have an
adverse effect on us.

Significant competition could adversely affect our future financial performance

Certain of our business segments face significant competition, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations. TFM faces significant competition
from trucks and other rail carriers as well as limited competition from the shipping industry in its freight operations. Our parcel tanker and supply ship services operating in the Gulf of Mexico have
faced significant competition, mainly from U.S. shipping companies. Although we expect that a recently enacted Mexican law restricting cabotage of ships (intra-Mexican movement) at Mexican ports to
Mexican-owned vessels carrying the Mexican flag will reduce competition from non-Mexican companies in this sector, there can be no assurance that such competition will be reduced. In our
land operations division, our trucking transport and automotive logistics services have faced intense competition, including price competition, from a large number of Mexican, U.S. and international
trucking lines. For example, in late 2000, we lost our long-term contract with Wal-Mart to a lower bidder, under which we supplied trucks that were used to deliver consumer
goods from Wal-Mart warehouses to
retail outlets throughout Mexico. Although we successfully re-established Wal-Mart as a client in the latter part of 2001 and continue to provide them with trucking services,
we can not assure you that we will not lose business in the future due to our inability to respond to competitive pressures by decreasing our prices without adversely affecting our gross margins and
operational results.

The
trucking industry is TFM's primary competition. TFM also faces significant competition in some industry segments from other railroads, in particular Ferrocarril Mexicano, S.A. de
C.V. ("Ferromex"), which operates the Pacific-North Rail Lines. In particular, TFM has experienced, and continues to experience, competition from Ferromex with respect to the transport of grain,
minerals and steel products. The rail lines operated by Ferromex run from Guadalajara and Mexico City to four U.S. border crossings west of Laredo, Texas, providing a potential alternative to TFM's
routes for the transport of freight from those cities to the U.S. border. Ferromex directly competes with TFM in some areas of its service territory, including Tampico, Saltillo, Monterrey and Mexico
City. Ferrocarril del Sureste, S.A. de C.V. ("Ferrosur"), which operates the Southeast Rail Lines, also competes directly with TFM for traffic to and from southeastern Mexico. Ferrosur, like TFM,
serves Mexico City, Puebla and Veracruz. Ferromex and Ferrosur are privately owned companies that may have greater financial resources than TFM. Among other things, this advantage may give them
greater ability to reduce freight prices. Price reductions by competitors would make TFM's freight services less competitive and we cannot assure you that TFM would be able to match these rate
reductions.

Under
TFM's concession, TFM must grant to Ferromex the right to operate over a north-south portion of its rail lines between Ramos Arizpe near Monterrey and the city of
Querétaro that constitutes over 600 kilometers of TFM's main track. Using these trackage rights, Ferromex may be able to compete with TFM over its rail lines for traffic between Mexico
City and the United States. TFM's concession also requires it to grant rights to use certain portions of its tracks to Ferrosur and the "belt railroad" operated in the greater Mexico City area by the Ferrocarril y Terminal del
Valle de México, S.A. de C.V.(the Mexico City Railroad and Terminal), thereby providing Ferrosur with more
efficient access to certain Mexico City industries. As a result of having to grant trackage rights to other railroads, TFM incurs additional maintenance costs and also loses the flexibility of using
its tracks at all times.

17

---

Ferromex
and Ferrosur announced that they agreed to the acquisition of Ferrosur by Ferromex. TFM filed a notice with the Mexican Antitrust Commission objecting to the proposed
acquisition on the grounds that it would limit competition. The acquisition was reviewed by the Mexican Antitrust Commission and on May 16, 2002 the Mexican Antitrust Commission announced that
it notified Ferromex that it has denied authorization to consummate the acquisition on antitrust grounds. Ferromex subsequently filed an appeal for review of the order, and on September 18,
2002, the Mexican Antitrust Commission confirmed its prior ruling denying authorization to consummation of the acquisition. Ferromex has requested the Federal Courts in Mexico to review the decision
of the Mexican Antitrust Commission. If the acquisition is completed, the resulting railroad would operate the largest rail system in Mexico, and we cannot assure you that this would not have a
material adverse effect on our operations, particularly on the revenues generated by our route between Mexico City and the port of Veracruz.

The rates for trackage rights set by the Ministry of Transportation may not adequately compensate TFM

Pursuant to TFM's concession, TFM is required to grant rights to use portions of its tracks to Ferromex, Ferrosur and the Mexico City Railroad and Terminal.
Applicable law stipulates that Ferromex, Ferrosur and the Mexico City Railroad and Terminal are required to grant to TFM rights to use portions of their tracks. Applicable law provides that the
Ministry of Transportation is entitled to set the rates in the event that TFM and the party to whom it is granting the rights cannot agree on a rate. TFM and Ferromex have not been able to agree upon
the rates each of them is required to pay the other for interline services and haulage and trackage rights. Therefore, in accordance with TFM's rights under the Mexican railroad services law and
regulations, in February 2001, TFM initiated an administrative proceeding requesting a determination of such rates by the Ministry of Transportation, which subsequently issued a ruling.

Although
the Ministry of Transportation's ruling establishes rates using the criteria set forth in the Mexican railroad services law and regulations, TFM is appealing the ruling on the
grounds that it fails to establish rates for interline services and because TFM disagrees with the methodology applied to the criteria in calculating the trackage rights rates. TFM also requested and
obtained a suspension of the effectiveness of the ruling pending resolution of its appeal. We cannot predict whether TFM will ultimately prevail in this proceeding and whether the rates TFM is
ultimately allowed to charge will be adequate to compensate it. See Item 4 "Information on the Company," Section B "Business OverviewRailroad Operations" for more information.

If our time charter arrangements are terminated or expire, our business could be adversely affected

We currently time charter three product tankers to PEMEX. A fourth product tanker time charter expired in December 2002, and the vessel is currently
working under spot conditions. In the event that our time charter arrangements with PEMEX are terminated or expire, we will be required to seek new time charter arrangements for these vessels. We
cannot be sure that time charters will be available for the vessels following termination or expiration or that time charter rates in effect at the time of such termination or expiration will be
comparable to those in effect under the existing time charters or in the present market. In the event that time charters are not available on terms acceptable to us, we may employ those tankers in the
spot market. Because charter rates in the spot market are subject to greater fluctuation than time charter rates, any failure to maintain existing, or enter into comparable, charter arrangements could
adversely affect our operating results.

Recent terrorist activities and geopolitical events and their consequences could adversely affect our operations

As a result of the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001, and the recent war involving, among others, the United States and Iraq,
there has been increased short-term market volatility, and there may be long-term effects on U.S. and world economies and markets.

18

---

Terrorist
attacks may negatively affect our operations. The continued threat of terrorism within the United States and abroad and the potential for military action and heightened
security measures in response to such threat may cause significant disruption to commerce throughout the world, including restrictions on cross-border transport and trade. In addition, related
political events may cause a lengthy period of uncertainty that may adversely affect our business. There can be no assurance that there will not be further large-scale terrorist attacks. Political and
economic instability in other regions of the world, including the United States and Canada, may also result and could negatively impact our operations. The consequences of terrorism and the responses
thereto are unpredictable and could have an adverse effect on our operations.

Downturns in the U.S. economy or in trade between the United States and Mexico would likely have adverse effects on our business and results of operations

The level and timing of our business activity is heavily dependent upon the level of U.S.-Mexican trade and the effects of NAFTA on such trade. Downturns in the
U.S. or Mexican economy or in trade between the United States and Mexico would likely have adverse effects on our business and results of operations. Our business of logistics and transportation of
products traded between Mexico and the United States depends on the U.S. and Mexican markets for these products, the relative position of Mexico and the United States in these markets at any given
time and tariffs or other barriers to trade. For example, the recent downturn in the U.S. economy has had an adverse effect on our revenues. This downturn may continue and could worsen, thereby having
a material adverse effect on our results of operations and our ability to meet our debt service obligations as described above.

Also,
fluctuations in the peso-dollar exchange rate could lead to shifts in the types and volumes of Mexican imports and exports. Although a decrease in the level of exports
of some of the commodities that we transport to the United States may be offset by a subsequent increase in imports of other commodities we haul into Mexico and vice versa, any offsetting increase
might not occur on a timely basis, if at all. Future developments in U.S.-Mexican trade beyond our control may result in a reduction of freight volumes or in an unfavorable shift in the mix of
products and commodities we carry.

Downturns in certain cyclical industries in which our customers operate could have adverse effects on our results of operations

The shipping, transportation and logistics industries are highly cyclical, generally tracking the cycles of the world economy. Although transportation markets are
affected by general economic conditions, there are numerous specific factors within each particular market segment that may influence operating results. Some of our customers do business in industries
that are highly cyclical, including the oil and gas, automotive and agricultural sectors. Any downturn in these sectors could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. Also, some of the
products we transport have had a historical pattern of price cyclicality which has typically been influenced by the general economic environment and by industry capacity and demand. For example,
global steel and petrochemical prices have decreased in the past. We cannot assure you that prices and demand for these products will not decline in the future, adversely affecting those industries
and, in turn, our financial results.

We are exposed to the risk of loss and liability

Our business is affected by a number of risks, including mechanical failure of vessels and equipment, collisions, property loss of vessels and equipment, cargo
loss or damage, as well as business interruption due to political circumstances in foreign countries, hostilities and labor strikes. In addition, the operation of any ocean-going vessel is subject to
the inherent possibility of catastrophic marine disaster, including oil spills and other environmental accidents, and the liabilities arising from owning and operating vessels in international trade.

19

---

We
maintain insurance to cover the risk of partial or total loss of or damage to all of our assets, including, but not limited to, railtrack, rail cars, port facilities, port equipment,
trucks, land facilities and offices. In particular, we maintain marine hull and machinery and war risk insurance on our vessels, which covers the risk of actual or constructive total loss.
Additionally, we have protection and indemnity insurance for damage caused by our operations to third persons. We do not carry insurance covering the loss of revenue resulting from a downturn in our
operations or resulting from vessel off-hire time on certain vessels. We cannot assure you that our insurance would be sufficient to cover the cost of damages suffered by us or damages to
others, that any particular claim will be paid or that such insurance will continue to be available at commercially reasonable rates in the future.

We face potential environmental liability

Our operations are subject to Mexican federal and state laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. The primary environmental law in
Mexico is the General Law of Ecological Balance and Environmental Protection (the "Ecological Law"). The Mexican federal agency in charge of overseeing compliance with, and enforcing the federal
environmental laws is the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources (Secretaría del Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales,
or "Semarnat"). As part of its enforcement powers, Semarnat is empowered to bring administrative and criminal proceedings and impose economic sanctions against companies that violate environmental
laws, and temporarily, or even permanently, close non-complying facilities. Under the Ecological Law, the Mexican government has implemented a program to protect the environment by
promulgating rules concerning water, land, air and noise pollution, and hazardous substances. We are also subject to the laws of various jurisdictions and international conferences with respect to the
discharge of materials into the environment. While we maintain insurance against certain of these environmental risks in an amount which we believe is consistent with amounts customarily obtained in
accordance with industry norms, we cannot assure you that our insurance is sufficient to cover damages we may suffer. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that the adoption of additional or more
stringent environmental laws and regulations would have on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Under
the United States Oil Pollution Act of 1990, or "OPA 90," owners and operators of ships could be exposed to substantial liability, and in some cases, unlimited liability for
removal costs and damages resulting from the discharge of oil, petroleum or related substances into United States waters by their vessels. In some jurisdictions, including the United States, claims
for removal costs and damages would enable claimants to immediately seize the ships of the owning and operating company and sell them in satisfaction of a final judgment. The existence of statutes
enacted by individual states of the United States on the same subject, but requiring different measures of compliance and liability, creates the potential for similar claims being brought under state
law. In addition, several international conventions that impose liability for the discharge of pollutants have been adopted by other countries. We time-charter product tankers to PEMEX,
which PEMEX uses to transport refined petroleum products domestically. Pursuant to these time-charters, PEMEX has the right to transport crude oil and operate internationally. We also
operate four parcel tankers in the international market. See Item 4 "Information on the Company," Section B "Business OverviewSpecialized Maritime Services." If a spill were to
occur in the course of operation of one of our vessels carrying petroleum products, and such spill affected the United States or another country that had enacted legislation similar to OPA 90, we
could be exposed to substantial or unlimited liability. Additionally, our vessels carry bunkers (ship fuel) and certain goods that, if spilled, under certain conditions, could cause pollution and
result in substantial claims against us, including claims under OPA 90 and other United States federal, state and local laws. Our railroad operations are subject to the provisions of the Ecological
Law. The regulations issued under the Ecological Law and technical environmental requirements issued by the Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources have promulgated standards for, among
other things, water discharge, water supply, emissions, noise pollution, hazardous substances and transportation and handling of hazardous and solid waste.

20

---

TFM
may also incur other environmental liabilities with respect to U.S. environmental laws in connection with its ownership of Mexrail. The U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA" or "Superfund") and similar state laws (known as Superfund laws) impose liability for the cost of remedial or removal actions, natural resources damages and
related costs at certain sites identified as posing a threat to the environment or public health. CERCLA imposes strict liability on the owners and operators of facilities in which hazardous waste and
other hazardous substances are deposited or from which they are released or are likely to be released into the environment. Liability may be imposed, without regard to fault or the legality of the
activity, on certain classes of persons, including the current and certain prior owners or operators of a site and persons that arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous substances.
Liability is imposed on a joint and several basis. In addition, other potentially responsible parties, adjacent landowners or other third parties may initiate cost recovery actions or toxic tort
litigation against sites subject to CERCLA or similar state laws.

Potential labor disruptions could adversely affect our financial condition and our ability to meet our obligations under our debt

As of December 31, 2002, approximately 63% of our employees were covered by a labor agreement. The compensation terms of the labor agreement are subject to
renegotiation on an annual basis and all other terms are renegotiated every two years. We may not be able to negotiate these provisions favorably, and strikes, boycotts or other disruptions could
occur. These potential disruptions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and on our ability to meet our payment obligations under our debt.

We have a contingent obligation to purchase shares of TFM owned by the government of Mexico

The Mexican government retained a 20% interest in TFM in connection with the privatization of TFM. By agreement, the Mexican government has reserved the right to
sell its equity interest by October 31, 2003 in a public offering that must be approved by Grupo TFM and its shareholders. If a public offering of TFM shares does not occur by that date, Grupo
TFM will have the obligation to purchase the government's interest at the original peso purchase price per share paid by Grupo TFM, indexed to Mexican inflation. If Grupo TFM does not purchase the
government's shares, the government may require that we and KCS, either jointly or individually, purchase the government's shares at this price. The price of the government's shares, as indexed for
inflation, was approximately 1,570.3 million UDIs (Investment Units Indexed to Inflation) (representing 4,935 million pesos as of July 31, 2002). This amount may be in excess of
the fair market value of the government's shares. We currently do not have sufficient resources to acquire the government's shares if required to do so. If the TFM Sale is completed, KCS will assume
our obligation under the put agreement and indemnify us against any losses resulting from any failure on their part to satisfy in full the put obligations.

Factors Relating to Mexico

Mexico is an emerging market economy, with attendant risks to our results of operations and financial condition

The Mexican government has exercised, and continues to exercise, significant influence over the Mexican economy. Accordingly, Mexican governmental actions
concerning the economy and state-owned enterprises could have a significant impact on Mexican private sector entities in general and on us in particular, as well as on market conditions, prices and
returns on Mexican securities, including our securities. The national elections held on July 2, 2000 ended 71 years of rule by the Institutional Revolutionary Party ("PRI") with the
election of President Vicente Fox Quesada, a member of the National Action Party ("PAN") and resulted in the increased representation of opposition parties in the Mexican Congress and in mayoral and
gubernatorial positions. Although there have not yet been any material adverse repercussions resulting from this political change, multiparty rule is still relatively new in

21

---

Mexico
and could result in economic or political conditions that could materially and adversely affect our operations. We cannot predict the impact that this new political landscape will have on the
Mexican economy. Furthermore, our financial condition, results of operations and prospects and, consequently, the market price for our securities, may be affected by currency fluctuations, inflation,
interest rates, regulation, taxation, social instability and other political, social and economic developments in or affecting Mexico.

The
Mexican economy in the past has suffered balance of payment deficits and shortages in foreign exchange reserves. There are currently no exchange controls in Mexico; however, Mexico
has imposed foreign exchange controls in the past. Pursuant to the provisions of NAFTA, if Mexico experiences serious balance of payment difficulties or the threat thereof in the future, Mexico would
have the right to impose foreign exchange controls on investments made in Mexico, including those made by U.S. and Canadian investors. Any restrictive exchange control policy could adversely affect
our ability to obtain dollars or to convert pesos into dollars for purposes of making interest and principal payments to noteholders, to the extent that we may have to effect those conversions. This
could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Securities
of companies in emerging market countries tend to be influenced by economic and market conditions in other emerging market countries. Emerging market countries, including
Argentina and Brazil, have recently been experiencing significant economic downturns and market volatility. These events have had an adverse effect on the economic conditions and securities markets of
emerging market countries, including Mexico.

Any devaluation of the peso would cause the peso cost of our dollar-denominated debt to increase, adversely affecting our ability to make payments on our indebtedness

After a five-year period of controlled devaluation of the peso, on December 19, 1994, the value of the peso dropped sharply as a result of
pressure against the currency. In 2002, the peso depreciated 12.8% against the dollar. Any additional devaluation in the peso would cause the peso cost of our dollar-denominated debt to increase. In
addition, currency instability may affect the balance of trade between the United States and Mexico.

Mexico may experience high levels of inflation in the future which could adversely affect our results of operations

Mexico has a history of high levels of inflation, and may experience inflation in the future. During most of the 1980s and during the mid and late 1990s, Mexico
experienced periods of high levels of inflation. The annual rates of inflation, for the last five years, as measured by changes in the National Consumer Price Index, as provided by Banco de
México, were:

1997

15.72%1998

18.61%1999

12.32%2000

8.96%2001

4.40%2002

5.70%


A
substantial increase in the Mexican inflation rate would have the effect of increasing some of our costs, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial
condition, as well as the market value of our securities. High levels of inflation may also affect the balance of trade between Mexico and the United States, and other countries, which could adversely
affect our results of operations.

22

Investors may be unable to enforce judgments against us

We are a stock corporation organized under the laws of Mexico. Most of our directors and executive officers are residents of Mexico, and all or a significant
portion of their assets and most of our assets are located in Mexico. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process outside Mexico upon us or our directors or
executive officers. In addition, there is doubt as to the enforceability against us and our directors and executive officers, in original actions in Mexican courts, of liabilities predicated solely on
the United States federal securities laws and as to the enforceability against us and our directors and executive officers in Mexican courts of judgments of United States courts obtained in actions
predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws.

ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A. History And Development of The Company

See Item 4 "Information on the Company," Section B "Business Overview"

B. Business Overview

We believe Grupo TMM is one of the largest integrated logistics and transportation companies in Mexico, offering an integrated regional network of rail and road
transportation services, port management, freight distribution, specialized maritime operations, logistics, and technology services. We recently sold our 51% interest in the Ports division (which
included our operations at Cozumel,
Manzanillo, Veracruz and Progreso) and are currently in the process of selling our Railroad division. See "The Asset Sales."

Rail Operations.Grupo TMM's railroad operating units include TFM and the Tex-Mex Railway. TFM is a subsidiary of
Grupo TFM. Our interest in Grupo TFM is held through TMM Multimodal, in which we have a 97% interest. TMM Multimodal, in turn, has a voting interest of 51% and a direct economic interest of 38.4% in
Grupo TFM. See "Railroad Operations." TFM operates the primary corridor of the Mexican railroad system, which allows us to participate in the growing freight traffic moving among Mexico,
the United States and Canada. TFM's rail lines connect the most populous and industrialized regions of Mexico with the principal border gateway between the United States and Mexico at Laredo-Nuevo
Laredo. In addition, TFM's rail system serves three of Mexico's four primary seaports at Veracruz and Tampico on the Gulf of Mexico and Lázaro Cárdenas on the Pacific
Ocean. TFM also serves 15 Mexican states and the cities of Monterrey and Mexico City, representing approximately 70% of the country's population. TFM also expects to serve Guadalajara, Mexico's third
largest city, through trackage rights with rail service to Laredo, Texas, the largest freight exchange point between the United States and Mexico.

Tex-Mex
operates a 521-mile railway between Laredo, Houston and Beaumont, Texas. The section between Laredo and Corpus Christi is operated using
Tex-Mex's own track (approximately 157 miles), while the section from Corpus Christi to Beaumont, where it interchanges with KCSR's system, is operated through trackage rights that were
granted to Mexrail, Inc. by the Surface Transportation Board in 1996. The Tex-Mex Railway also interchanges with TFM at Laredo, Texas, providing access to Mexico from the United
States, and with the Union Pacific Railroad and the BNSF Railway at Corpus Christi. We believe the Laredo gateway is the most important interchange point for freight between the United States and
Mexico. Approximately 81% of TFM's total revenue in 2001 was attributable to international freight. The majority of this international freight was bound to or from the United States and Canada,
crossing the U.S.-Mexico border at Nuevo Laredo, and most of the remainder came from overseas, principally through Mexico's seaports.

23

---

TFM's route structure enables it to benefit from the growing trade resulting from the increasing integration of the North American economies through NAFTA. Mexican foreign trade
increased at an average annual rate of 15.5% from 1992 to 2000, increasing by 15.1% in 1999 from 1998 and by 22.5% in 2000 from 1999. Notwithstanding a decrease of 4.1% in Mexican foreign trade in
2001 from 2000 as a result of the slowdown of the U.S. and global economies, TFM's revenues increased 4.2% in 2001 from 2000.

Port and Terminal Operations.We presently operate two Mexican port facilities, Tuxpan, and Acapulco. These facilities are
operated under concessions granted by the Mexican government, which provide for certain renewal rights. See"Port and Terminal Operations" On May 13, 2003, we completed the sale of
interests in TMMPyT. Included in the sale were our operations at the ports of Manzanillo, Cozumel, Veracruz and Progreso.

Specialized Maritime Operations.We operate a fleet of 35 vessels, including supply vessels that provide transportation and
services to the Mexican off-shore oil industry, tankers that transport petroleum products, parcel tankers that transport liquid chemical cargos, tugboats that provide towing services, and
"car carriers" that transport vehicles. Mexican law requires that all "cabotage" (movement within Mexico and Mexican waters) must be conducted by Mexican flag vessels, providing us with a competitive
advantage in this market.

Logistics Operations.We operate logistics facilities, which are strategically located in major industrial cities and at
seaports and railroad hubs throughout Mexico. We offer full-service logistics facilities in Aguascalientes, Querétaro, Hermosillo, Toluca, Ramos Arizpe, Puebla, Veracruz,
Nuevo Laredo, San Luis Potosí, Cuernavaca, Mexico City and Monterrey. These facilities provide consulting, analytical and logistics outsourcing services including: management of inbound
movement of parts to manufacturing plants consistent with just-in-time inventory planning practices; logistics network (order-cycle) analysis; logistics information process
design; warehouse/facility management; supply chain/logistics management; product manipulation/repackaging; local pre-assembly; and inbound and outbound distribution using multiple
transportation modes including rail and truck transport.

We
believe we have competitive advantages as a third-party logistics provider serving Mexican and international customers in Mexico primarily as a result of our logistics facilities,
which are strategically located in major industrial cities and at seaports and railroad hubs throughout Mexico, combined with our integrated nationwide network of rail and truck transport.

General Information

The Mexican Market

Since TMM's formation in 1958, the growth and diversification of the Mexican economy have largely driven our growth. As a result of NAFTA, which became effective
on January 1, 1994, trade with and investment in Mexico has significantly increased, resulting in greater traffic along the North-South cross-border trade routes which comprise the NAFTA
corridor. The following table illustrates the growth of the foreign trade segment of the Mexican economy over the last three years.

The
growth rate in 2001 decreased due to a global downturn in the economy that affected international trade between Mexico and the United States. However, notwithstanding generally weak
economic conditions, overall Mexican foreign trade increased in 2002 compared to the prior year.

Certain Competitive Advantages

We benefit from the following competitive advantages:

Railroad Operations

TFM Railroad

TFM, through 2,641 miles (4,251 km) of main track and 637 miles (1,025 km) of trackage rights, operates the primary corridor of the Mexican railroad system which
allows us to participate in the growing freight traffic moving among Mexico, the United States and Canada. TFM's rail lines connect the most populous and industrialized regions of Mexico with the
principal border gateway between the United States and Mexico at Laredo-Nuevo Laredo. In addition, TFM's rail system serves three of Mexico's four primary seaports at Veracruz and Tampico on the Gulf
of Mexico and Lázaro Cárdenas on the Pacific Ocean. TFM serves 15 Mexican states and the cities of Monterrey and Mexico City, representing approximately 70% of the
country's population. TFM also expects to serve Guadalajara, Mexico's third largest city, through trackage rights with rail service to Laredo, Texas, the largest freight exchange point between the
United States and Mexico, where TFM provides exclusive access from Mexico and also access from the United States through connections with the Tex-Mex Railway and the Union Pacific
Railroad. We believe the Laredo gateway is the most important interchange point for freight between the United States and Mexico. Approximately 82% of TFM's total revenue in 2002 was attributable to
international freight. The majority of this international freight was bound to or from the United States and Canada, crossing the U.S.-Mexico border at Nuevo Laredo, and most of the remainder came
from overseas, principally through Mexico's seaports.

TFM's
route structure enables it to benefit from the growing trade resulting from the increasing integration of the North American economies through NAFTA. Mexican foreign trade
increased at an average annual rate of 18.8% from 1992 to 2000, increasing by 15.1% in 1999 from 1998 and by 22.5% in 2000 from 1999. Notwithstanding a decrease of 4.1% in Mexican foreign trade in
2001 from 2000 as a result of the slowdown of the U.S. and global economies, TFM's foreign trade increased 0.77% in 2002 from 2001.

TFM
has significantly improved the operations of its rail lines by focusing on providing reliable and comprehensive customer service, implementing U.S. and Canadian railroad operating
practices and making capital improvements to its track, systems and equipment designed to reduce costs and increase
operating efficiencies. In 2002, TFM's operating ratio was 76.1% (78.5% including Mexrail), compared with an operating ratio of 93.6% for the first six months following commencement of its operations.
TFM's operating ratio is better than the average operating ratio for the eight Class I railroads in the United States.(1) Operating ratio is an industry efficiency measure, which
represents a railroad's operating expenses as a percentage of its transportation revenues.

---

The
principal commodities hauled over TFM's rail lines are: industrial products, metals and minerals; agro-industrial products; automotive products; chemical and
petrochemical products; and intermodal freight. TFM currently operates intermodal terminals located in Monterrey, Toluca and San Luís Potosí, and has access to intermodal
terminals at Querétaro, Guadalajara, Ramos Arizpe and Encantada. In addition, TFM has direct access to Grupo TMM's intermodal facilities at the ports of Tampico, Veracruz and
Lázaro Cárdenas and to intermodal terminals in Altamira and Manzanillo (through interline service with Ferromex) and in Mexico City (through the Mexico City Railroad
Terminal). TFM also has access to intermodal terminals at Laredo operated by the Tex-Mex Railway and the Union Pacific Railroad, which it is using to develop international intermodal
business.

TFM's
rail lines serve major automobile and other manufacturing facilities at the intermodal terminals at Monterrey and Ramos Arizpe, important industrial and commercial districts, as
well as at the facilities of many major customers.

Mexican Government Interests

In connection with the original formation of Grupo TFM, the Mexican government purchased a 24.6% non-voting interest in Grupo TFM for
$198.8 million. The Mexican government also granted the original shareholders of Grupo TFM an option (the "call option") to purchase the government's equity interest in Grupo TFM. On
July 29, 2002, TFM purchased all of the call option shares for an aggregate purchase price of $256.1 million. The purchase price for the call option shares was financed through
(1) a portion of the proceeds of the issuance of $180.0 million of debt securities by TFM and (2) $85.2 million (based on the applicable exchange rate as of
March 31, 2002) payable to TFM by the Mexican government as a result of TFM's recent transfer of a redundant portion of its track to the government, together with cash from TFM's operations. As
a result of the acquisition of the call option shares, TFM expects to achieve financial benefits and reduce the Mexican government's
involvement in its business. The Mexican government retains a 20% non-voting direct equity interest in TFM.

The
Mexican government has the right to sell its 20.0% direct equity interest in TFM by October 31, 2003 in a public offering, subject to the approval of Grupo TMM and KCS. If a
public offering of TFM shares does not occur by that date and the Mexican government exercises its put option, Grupo TFM will have the obligation to purchase the Mexican government's interest in TFM
at the original peso purchase price per share paid by Grupo TFM for its 80.0% equity interest in TFM, indexed to Mexican inflation. If Grupo TFM does not purchase the Mexican government's TFM shares,
the Mexican government may require Grupo TMM and KCS, or either Grupo TMM or KCS alone, to purchase the TFM shares at such price and release Grupo TFM from its obligation. There is no assurance that
Grupo TFM, Grupo TMM or KCS will have sufficient funds to acquire the Mexican government's interest. If the TFM Sale is completed, KCS will assume all of our obligations under the put option and will
indemnify us from any losses incurred as a result of the exercise by the Mexican government of the repurchase right.

Following
its privatization in 1997, TFM and its shareholders negotiated with the Mexican government the resolution of certain matters related to the granting of the concession and its
acquisition of related railroad assets.

In
connection with these negotiations, on February 9, 2001, the Mexican government, through the Ministry of Transportation, issued an official statement pursuant to which TFM and
the Mexican government agreed to the transfer by TFM of the redundantLa Griega-Mariscalaportion of its track back to the Mexican government. On
February 12, 2001, the Mexican government amended TFM's concession title to reflect the reversion of theLa Griega-Mariscalaline to the Mexican
government. The consideration for the transfer of the track was approximately Ps. 653.6 million, plus applicable value added tax, or approximately Ps. 751.6 million (approximately
$81.9 million as of December 31, 2001). The Mexican government paid the consideration for theLa Griega-Mariscalaline to TFM, amounting
to $85.2 million, in conjunction with the acquisition by TFM of the Mexican government's 24.6% interest in Grupo TFM on July 29, 2002. TheLa
Griega-Mariscalatrack is a redundant 32-kilometer stretch of track which is part of TFM's dual track running between Mexico City and the city of
Querétaro. The Mexican government subsequently granted theLa Griega-Mariscalatrack to Ferromex to fulfill its obligation to provide
Ferromex with a track along this route to facilitate transport by Ferromex through Querétaro.

At
the same time, TFM's concession was also amended to relieve TFM from responsibility for the maintenance of the electrified catenary over the portion of its dual line between
Huehuetoca and Querétaro and to authorize TFM's dismantling of the catenary over that portion of the line, which TFM completed in 1999. In addition, the amendment requires TFM to
complete certain railway improvements which TFM believes will not involve material expenditures.

In
addition to the foregoing, after a period of negotiation with Ferromex, TFM's principal Mexican rail competitor, and the Mexican government regarding the terms relating to the
trackage rights required to be granted by TFM to Ferromex and by Ferromex to TFM under their respective concessions, TFM and Ferromex were unable to reach an agreement with respect to the fees to be
paid by TFM and Ferromex for

28

---

usage
of the other's track. Therefore, in accordance with TFM's rights under the Mexican railroad services law, TFM asked the Ministry of Transportation to set these trackage rights using the
applicable criteria under the Mexican railroad services law. In March 2002, the Ministry of Transportation issued its trackage rights ruling, which TFM is now appealing. See "Risk
FactorsFactors relating to Grupo TMM. The rates for trackage rights set by the Ministry of Transportation may not adequately compensate TFM" and "Legal Proceedings" for more
information.

The Concession

TFM holds a 50-year concession title, renewable under certain conditions for an additional 50 years, to provide freight transportation services
over its rail lines. This right is exclusive for the first 30 years of TFM's operations, subject to certain trackage rights to be granted to other Mexican rail operators. Under the concession,
TFM has the right to use, during the full term of the concession, all rights of way, track, buildings and related maintenance facilities that are necessary for the operation of its rail lines. Under
the terms of the concession, TFM is required to pay the government a fee equal to 0.5% of our gross revenues during the first 15 years of the concession period, and 1.25% of such revenues
during the remainder of the period.

TFM
is required to grant trackage rights along our rail lines to Ferromex, Ferrosur and the Mexico City Terminal Railroad. The Ministry of Transportation has the right to grant exclusive
passenger service concessions utilizing TFM's rail lines to a concessionaire other than TFM. Under the concession and the Mexican railroad services law, TFM may freely set its rates unless the Mexican
Antitrust Commission determines that there is no effective competition, taking into account alternative rail routes and modes of transportation. If the Mexican Antitrust Commission determines that
there is a lack of competition in the railroad system, the Ministry of Transportation will establish the basis for TFM's rates. TFM's rates must be registered and applied in accordance with the
Mexican railroad services law and regulations. In applying its rates, TFM must not make cross-subsidies, engage in tied sales or engage in other discriminatory pricing tactics. TFM is required to
provide railroad services to all users on a fair and non-discriminatory basis and in accordance with the efficiency and safety standards approved periodically by the Ministry of
Transportation. In the event that TFM collects from customers rates higher than the registered rates, it must reimburse those customers with interest.

The
concession requires TFM to make investments and undertake capital projects in accordance with a business plan reviewed and approved by the Mexican government every 5 years.
TFM is also responsible
for compliance with efficiency and safety standards set forth in the concession, which are based on standards of the Association of American Railroads ("AAR").

The
Mexican railroad services law and regulations and the concession establish several circumstances under which the concession will terminate, including through revocation by the
Ministry of Transportation, surrender by TFM of its rights under the concession, statutory appropriation or liquidation or bankruptcy of TFM. The Mexican railroad services law and regulations sets out
the circumstances under which the concession may be revoked. These include: (1) unjustified interruption of the operation of our rail lines; (2) any act or omission that restricts the
ability of other Mexican rail operators to use our rail lines; (3) failure to make payments for damages caused during the performance of services; (4) charging tariffs higher than
registered tariffs; (5) a change in TFM's nationality; (6) our assignment of, or creation of liens on, the concession without the Ministry of Transportation's approval;
(7) failure to maintain the insurance coverage specified in the Mexican railroad services law and regulations; and (8) noncompliance with any term or condition of the Mexican railroad
services law and regulations, related regulations or the concession. In the eases of (1), (6) or (7) above, the concession will be automatically revoked. In the event that the concession
is revoked by the Ministry of Transportation, we will receive no compensation, and our rail lines and all other fixtures covered by the concession, as well as all improvements made by us, will revert
to the Mexican government. All other property not covered by the concession, including movable railroad property we purchased from the Mexican government, as well as all locomotives and railcars we

29

---

otherwise
acquired, will remain our property. However, if we attempt to sell more than 15.0% of our equipment to a third party within 90 days of termination or revocation of our concession, the
Mexican government will have a right of first refusal to purchase the equipment on the same terms offered by the third party if no other concessionaire is likely to provide rail services over our rail
lines and the equipment being sold is indispensable to the continuation of our rail services. After the Mexican government receives notice from us of our intention to sell the equipment, it will have
30 days to exercise its right of first refusal. In addition, the Mexican government will have the right to cause us to lease all of our service-related assets to the Ministry of Transportation
for a term of at least one year, automatically renewable for additional one-year terms for up to five years. The Mexican government must exercise this right within four months after
revocation of the concession.

The
Ministry of Transportation has agreed that, except with respect to those events which constitute grounds for automatic revocation of the concession (as described in clauses (1),
(6) and (7) in the paragraph above), it will notify those creditors which provided financing for Grupo TFM's acquisition of its equity interest in TFM and are identified by TFM and Grupo
TFM to the Ministry of Transportation of all events which constitute grounds for revocation of the concession and will allow such creditors, with the Ministry of Transportation's prior written
consent, the opportunity to nominate a party to assume the concession. In addition, if the concession is terminated by revocation, permanent seizure of our rail lines, or upon the liquidation or
bankruptcy of TFM, then profits received by the Mexican government or by a third party concessionaire from the operation and exploitation of our rail lines shall continue to be committed to repay
creditors that provided financing to TFM for work projects directly related to the rendering of railroad services and performed on the rail lines.

The
concession requires us to make investments and undertake capital projects in accordance with a business plan approved by the Mexican government. We are also responsible for
compliance with efficiency and safety standards set forth in the concession, which are based on standards of the AAR.

Under
the concession we are responsible for all ecological and environmental damage that we may cause from and after the date of commencement of operations. The Mexican government has
agreed to indemnify us for any environmental liability relating to soil, subsoil or groundwater contamination attributable to the Mexican government occurring prior to our acquisition of TFM's shares.
We assumed full responsibility for the operation of supply depots and shops and the supervision of infrastructure projects, as well as compliance with present and future environmental protection laws
and regulations.

We
are required by the concession to obtain and maintain insurance policies in accordance with the terms of the Mexican railroad services law and regulations. Except under specific
circumstances, we are responsible for damage caused to cargo transported by us over our lines as well as for damage caused to third parties and such parties' property as a result of our activities.

The
concession prohibits us from refusing to transport water to communities in need of such service because of geographical or demographic characteristics, provided that we are paid at
the prescribed tariff rate. We are also required to transport mail, emergency supplies necessary for rescue and salvage operations, and members of the armed forces. We must also grant a right of
passage for all railroad equipment of the Mexican government's armed forces. The concession also requires us under certain circumstances to establish reserves to cover contingent labor liabilities
that arise during the term of the concession.

Tex-Mex Railway

In May 2003, TFM sold a 51.0% interest in Mexrail and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Texas Mexican Railway Company, to KCS for $32.6 million. The Mexrail
stock sold will remain in an independent voting trust pending approval of the transaction by the U.S. Surface Transportation Board (the "STB"). Mexrail owns the northern, or U.S., portion of the
international rail bridge at Laredo. Proceeds from the sale were re-invested by TFM. We have the right, exercisable at any time prior to the

30

---

approval
of the transaction by the STB, to cause TFM to repurchase the shares held by the voting trust. On June 9, 2003, the STB accepted the KCS/Tex Mex application under the STB's rules
governing "minor" transactions and requested additional information regarding the competitive implications within the U.S. of the proposed sale of TFM to KCS. Accordingly, KCS and Tex Mex supplemented
their application to the STB on June 23, 2003.

The
Tex-Mex Railway operates a 521-mile railway between Laredo, Houston and Beaumont, Texas. The section between Laredo and Corpus Christi is operated using
Tex-Mex's own track (approximately 157 miles), while the section from Corpus Christi to Beaumont, where it interchanges with KCSR's system, is operated through trackage rights that were
granted to Mexrail by the Surface Transportation Board in 1996. The Tex-Mex Railway also interchanges with TFM at Laredo, Texas and with the Union Pacific Railroad and the BNSF Railway at
Corpus Christi. Mexrail, which owns all of the outstanding stock of the Tex-Mex Railway, owns the northern, or U.S. portion, of the international rail bridge at Laredo, Texas that spans
the U.S.-Mexico border. The southern, or Mexican, portion of the bridge is operated by TFM under its concession.

The
Tex-Mex Railway recently implemented a significant improvement program to enable it to handle the expected increase in cross border trade from NAFTA and its affiliations
with KCSR and TFM. Since 2000, trains on the main line of the Tex-Mex Railway track have operated at speeds of 30 mph or greater and the right-of-way has been
cleared for 21-foot doublestack containers. Because of growth of the line, substantial rebuilding of the track occurred in 2001. The Tex-Mex Railway acquired the Rosenberg-
Victoria line and right of way from the Union Pacific Railroad. This acquisition, over time, is expected to reduce 70 operating miles between Laredo and Houston, and Beaumont, Texas. In addition, the
Serrano Rail Yard in Laredo, Texas is being expanded and will serve as a customs exchange and clearinghouse for inbound rail traffic from the United States, thereby improving the efficiency of the
movement of freight across the border by relieving current congestion and delays associated with customs activities conducted on the crossing bridge. The Serrano Rail Yard, which encompasses
approximately 250 acres and over 8.5 miles of trackage, is the principal railcar and intermodal facility for the Tex-Mex Railway.

Port and Terminal Operations

On May 13, 2003, we completed the sale of our 51% interest in TMM Ports and Terminals ("TMMPyT") to an affiliate of our former partner in the division,
Stevedoring Services of America ("SSA"). Included in the sale were the operations at the ports of Manzanillo, Cozumel, Veracruz and Progreso. We continue to conduct operations at two Mexican
portsAcapulco and Tuxpan. We have been granted three partial assignment agreements of rights and obligations at Tuxpan. Additionally, we own land and a multipurpose cargo terminal. We
have a 25 year concession at Acapulco granted by the Mexican government. Our concessions give us the right of first refusal to continue operation for a second term once the term of the original
concession expires. The following table sets forth our existing port facilities and concessions:

|Port     |  | Concession                                      |  | Date Awarded       |  | Duration                                    
|-------- |  | ----------------------------------------------- |  | ------------------ |  | --------------------------------------------
|Acapulco |  | Integral port administration                    |  | June 21, 1996      |  | 25 years (with possibility of extension

Acapulco

In June 1996, we received a 25-year concession to operate the tourist port of Acapulco and commenced operations in July 1996. We paid
$7.9 million for this concession. The first phase consisting of the car carrier terminal was completed in November 1997. The second phase consisting of the Passenger Terminal was
completed during the fourth quarter of 2000. We made additional capital expenditures from 1996 through 2000 of approximately $8.8 million at this port for expenses including remodeling,
rehabilitation and expansion of the facilities. Our port interests in Acapulco are operated through a joint venture with SSA Mexico, Inc. called Administración Portuaria Integral
de Acapulco, S.A. de C.V: ("API Acapulco"), in which we have a 51% interest.

Tuxpan

We own approximately 2,290 acres of land in Tuxpan, and we own a terminal of multipurpose cargo through our wholly owned subsidiary Terminal
Marítima de Tuxpan, S.A. de C.V. We have access to a contiguous public berth where containers and general cargoes are unloaded and delivered to our multipurpose terminal. While we
currently only handle a small volume of cargo at the port, we are in the process of developing the site. Tuxpan is operated through Operadora Portuaria de Tuxpan, S.A. de C.V., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Grupo TMM.

As
part of the sale of TMMPyT, we agreed not to compete with SSA or its affiliates in Mexico for a term of five years, except in connection with our port operations at Tuxpan, API
Acapulco, and Lazaro Cardenas (excluding the container terminal operation at Lazaro Cardenas). SSA has a first refusal right to participate in new port operations of our company or its affiliates up
to a 49% equity interest.

Specialized Maritime Services

Our specialized maritime services include: (a) supply and offshore support vessels, that provide transportation and supply services to the Mexican
off-shore oil industry in the Gulf of Mexico; (b) product tankers for the transport of petroleum products; (c) parcel tankers for the transport of liquid chemical cargoes;
(d) tugboats that provide towing services for ships at the port of Manzanillo; and (e) ships that transport vehicles, known as "car carriers." Mexican law provides that cabotage (intra-
Mexican movement between ports) must be conducted by ships carrying the Mexican flag, providing us with a competitive advantage in this market.

Fleet Management

Currently we operate a modern, well-maintained fleet comprised of product carriers, parcel tankers and car carrier vessels, as well as a fleet of
offshore support vessels and tugboats.

Of
a total of 36 vessels, 17 are owned tonnage (one product tanker, thirteen offshore support vessels and three tugboats), 7 are chartered units (four parcel tankers, two car carriers
and one product tanker) and 12 vessels are operated under bare boat contracts (two product tankers, nine offshore support vessels and one tugboat).

Offshore Division

We participate in the offshore services sector in the Gulf of Mexico through a joint venture with Seacor Smit, Inc. ("Seacor") called
Marítima Mexicana, S.A. ("Marmex"). Seacor is one of the largest U.S. companies engaged in operating supply ships and supplying support services to the offshore drilling platforms in
the Gulf of Mexico. We hold a 60% ownership interest in Marmex. In September of 2002, we re-delivered one vessel that was operated under a bare boat contract. The offshore division
operates 22 vessels, which are operated by Marmex and are used to service medium and long- term contracts. As of

32

---

March 31,
2003, 17 vessels were directly hired by PEMEX, and five were hired by private operators engaged in the construction and maintenance sectors for PEMEX.

Product Tankers and Parcel Tankers

We operate a fleet of four product tankers, one of which is owned, one of which is chartered under a time charter contract, and two of which are chartered under
bare boat contracts. Our product tankers are used primarily for the transportation of refined petroleum products.

We
currently time charter three product tankers to PEMEX. A fourth time charter expired in December 2002. This vessel is currently working under spot charter terms. Although PEMEX
has not sought any long-term bids since 1993 for additional long-term contracts for tankers, we believe that PEMEX will do so in the future. We expect that if such bids are
sought, we will also bid for such long-term contracts. In the event that our time charter arrangements with PEMEX are terminated or expire, we will be required to seek new time charter
arrangements for these vessels. We cannot be sure that time charters will be available for the vessels following termination or expiration or that time charter rates in effect at the time of such
termination or expiration will be comparable to those in effect under the existing time charters or in the present market. In the event that time charters are not available on terms acceptable to us,
we may employ those tankers in the spot market.

We
also operate four parcel tankers, trading between Mexican and American ports in the Gulf of Mexico, mainly in the chemical and vegetable oil trades.

Harbor Towing

We have a 60% equity participation in a joint venture with Smit International Americas Inc., which, since January 1997, has provided tugboat
services in the port of Manzanillo under a 10-year concession.

Car Carrier

The car carrier division has historically provided market services for carrier ocean shipments using either owned equipment or charter ships. During the first
half of 2001, we made a decision to limit our focus on the traffic lanes of the Pacific and Caribbean Basin. Because of the low level of profitability in this segment, although we plan to remain
involved in the car carrier industry, we no longer intend to own any vessels.

33

Shipping Agencies

Our agencies represent ship owners, charterers and shippers in proceedings with port authorities, and provide other services at several ports throughout Mexico.
We own offices in four ports: Ciudad del Carmen, Campeche; Dos Bocas, Tabasco; Acapulco, Guerrero and Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz.

We
also provide our shipping agency services at other major ports, through agreements with local agents. This business segment was reclassified from the logistics operations division to
the specialized maritime division in January 2002, as part of our corporate restructuring. As of June 2002, the shipping agencies segment represented 1% of the specialized maritime
services total revenues.

Logistics Operations

Our logistics operations encompass: (a) an array of logistics and related consulting and analytical activities conducted from strategically located
facilities throughout Mexico; (b) trucking and intermodal transport; (c) maintenance and repair of containers and reefer containers in principal Mexican ports and cities; and
(d) intermodal terminal operations at principal cities alongside the TFM network. Due to the scope of our operations, together with the extent of our experience and resources, we believe that
we are uniquely positioned to coordinate the entire supply chain for our customers.

We
offer full-service logistics facilities in Aguascalientes, Querétaro, Hermosillo, Toluca, Ramos Arizpe, Puebla, Veracruz, Nuevo Laredo, San Luis
Potosí, Cuernavaca, Mexico City and Monterrey. These facilities provide consulting, analytical and logistics outsourcing services including: management of inbound movement of parts to
manufacturing plants consistent with just-in-time inventory planning practices; logistics network (order-cycle) analysis; logistics information process design;
warehouse/facility management; supply chain/logistics management; product manipulation/repackaging; local pre-assembly; and inbound and outbound distribution using multiple transportation
modes including rail and truck transport.

We
provide specialized logistics support for the automotive industry. Services include the arrangement and coordination of the movement of motor vehicle parts or
sub-assemblies from supplier facilities to assembly plants, and the inspection, yard management and movement of finished vehicles from assembly plants to regional distribution centers. The
logistics operations division
developed an 80-acre state-of-the-art auto distribution complex in Toluca, which provides transportation services to major auto manufacturers located in
the Toluca region such as Chrysler and Peugeot.

Our
logistics services can be provided as end-to-end integrated logistics programs (bundled) or discrete services (unbundled) depending on customer needs.

In
conjunction with our logistics facilities, we offer trucking transport as a value-added service component to streamline the movement of products to and from major Mexican cities,
seaports and rail hubs. We provide dedicated logistics trucking services to major manufacturers and retailers with facilities and operations throughout Mexico. In addition, we provide shipping agency
services at various Mexican seaports.

RoadRailer and Intermodal Services

In May 2001, we introduced "RoadRailer" technology, which is the first intermodal domestic service in Mexico. RoadRailers are semi-trailers
equipped with both tires for highway use and "bogies" with rail wheels for running directly on rail tracks. This new service is designed to complement our trucking and rail transport operations to
further streamline the movement of products to and from Mexico City and surrounding states, and along the northeast region of Mexico. We currently own 200 RoadRailers and have ordered 150 additional
units, which we expect to receive and begin operating in the second quarter of 2003.

34

---

In
October 2002, TMM Logistics and Hub Group, which is the largest IMC (intermodal marketing company) in the United States, created a joint network to manage freight moving among
Canada, the United States and Mexico. TMM Logistics will provide all sales support and operational execution within Mexico for the network.

Trucking Services

Historically, we have viewed trucking as an important complement to our core businesses. In mid-1992, in furtherance of our strategy of expansion into
complementary businesses and in order to participate more significantly in NAFTA transportation trade, we formed Comercializadora Internacional de Carga, S.A. de C.V. ("CIC"), a joint venture with
J.B. Hunt Transport, Inc. ("J.B. Hunt"), a leading provider of commercial road freight transportation services
throughout the United States. CIC, in which we held a 51% ownership interest, provided leasing, commercial and logistics services for road freight transportation. Under Mexican law, transport in
Mexico can only be performed by Mexican owned companies. We currently operate approximately 400 trucks.

Our
international service in 2000, accounted for approximately 20% of our trucking revenues. Through our international service, we operated approximately 900 long-haul trips
monthly into and out of Mexico through the Laredo, Texas gateway at the U.S. border. Through the latter part of 2000 and throughout 2001 this cross border activity began to decline, as railroad
alternative line haul products replaced much of the over the road volume. As a result, Grupo TMM and J.B. Hunt agreed to terminate our joint venture.

We
provide dedicated trucking services to several customers, including, Ford, Jumex, Allied Domecq, Wal-Mart and Nissan. In 2000, we entered into a long-term
contract with Ford to deliver spare parts from distribution centers to Ford dealerships throughout Mexico. During the second quarter of 2001, we entered a dedicated parts distribution contract with
Nissan.

Our
domestic service continues to provide trucking services on a spot market basis to various customers. Additionally, we also provide port services to complement our freight-forwarding
activity. We have shifted more international service vehicles to inland haulage of intra-Mexican movements as margins continue to improve in these business segments.

Although
our trucking services represent less than 1% of the Mexican market share, we continue to view trucking as an important business and are exploring other opportunities in this
area which may complement our railroad business.

Through
Grupo TFM, we hold a controlling stake in TFM, the company which owns the concession to operate what we believe to be the most strategically important of three regional trunk
line railroads in Mexico. KCS, our partner in Grupo TFM, owns KCSR, a U.S. Class I railroad. KCSR and its affiliated railroads (excluding the Tex-Mex Railway) operate a rail network
of approximately 3,100 route miles of main and branch lines and 1,340 miles of other tracks within a ten state region of the United States.

Our
agreements with KCS contain certain restrictions on the transfer of shares of Grupo TFM and on the transfer of shares of our subsidiaries through which we hold our interest in Grupo
TFM. Neither KCS nor we may transfer control of subsidiaries through which we hold our respective interests in Grupo TFM without the prior written consent of the other party, unless that transfer is
to an affiliate. In addition, transfers to affiliates require that the transferring shareholder guarantee such an affiliate's obligations and receive a retransfer of the shares if the transferee
ceases to be an affiliate. We and KCS have also agreed not to transfer (directly or indirectly) our respective equity interests in Grupo TFM to any competitor of either of the parties without the
prior written consent of the other. Transfers of Grupo TFM shares are restricted by Grupo TFM's Bylaws. Those Bylaws provide that share transfers (other than transfers to affiliates) must be approved
by Grupo TFM's Board of Directors (not including any directors appointed by the transferring shareholder). Before the Board of Directors can approve a transfer to an unaffiliated party, the
transferring shareholder must first offer the other shareholders a right of first refusal to purchase the shares.

In
October 2000, EMD, a subsidiary of General Motors, invested $20.0 million in our subsidiary TMM Multimodal (representing a 3.36% interest in TMM Multimodal). EMD's
investment as a strategic partner is part of our overall strategy designed to encourage the participation of strategic investors in our portfolio. Under the terms of the Subscription and Stockholder
Agreement relating to its investment in TMM Multimodal, EMD has the right to cause Grupo TMM to purchase, or, alternatively, to cause TMM Multimodal to redeem, all, but not less than all, of EMD's
shares in TMM Multimodal (the "GM Put Option"). The GM Put Option is exercisable by EMD at any time during the period beginning June 30, 2003 and ending June 30, 2007, or earlier upon
the occurrence of certain events. The price to be paid upon exercise of the GM Put Option is $20 million, plus interest compounded annually from June 30, 2000 at the rate of 12% per
annum, less certain distributions received by EMD in respect of its shares of TMM Multimodal. EMD also has the right, under certain circumstances, to exchange its shares of TMM Multimodal for shares
in either Grupo TMM or Grupo TFM. In addition, Grupo TMM and TMM Multimodal have the right to acquire or redeem all, but not less than all, of EMD's shares in TMM Multimodal for a price of
$20 million, plus interest compounded annually from June 30, 2000 at rates beginning at 15% per annum for periods up to June 30, 2003 and increasing periodically to 20% per annum
for periods after June 30, 2010, less certain distributions received by EMD in respect of its shares of TMM Multimodal.

Recent Developments

The Asset Sales

On April 21, 2003, we entered into an Acquisition Agreement with KCS', which owns a 49% voting interest in Grupo TFM, to sell our entire interest in Grupo
TFM (referred to herein as the "TFM Sale"), which owns TFM and through which our railroad operations are conducted. The acquisition of the shares of Grupo TFM by KCS is structured as a sale of the
stock of Grupo TFM owned by TMM Multimodal, S.A. de C.V. ("TMM Multimodal") to a subsidiary of KCS. The subsidiary will then merge with and into KCS, which will be renamed NAFTA Rail and will continue
to trade on the New York Stock Exchange. Under the agreement, KCS will acquire our interest in Grupo TFM for $200 million in cash and 18,000,000 shares of common stock of KCS. KCS has the right
to elect to pay up to $80 million of the cash portion of the purchase price by delivering shares of KCS common stock valued for that purpose at $12.50 per share. On June 11, 2003, the
closing price for shares of KCS common stock on the New York Stock Exchange was $12.61. In addition, we will have the right to receive an additional amount of up to $175 million in cash

36

---

($180 million
if KCS elects to defer a portion of the payment) in the event that the pending VAT claim (described herein) against the Mexican government by TFM is successfully resolved and the
amount received is greater than the purchase price of the "put" rights for the TFM shares held by the Mexican government. Upon completion of the TFM Sale, KCS will assume the company's obligations to
make any payment upon the exercise by the Mexican government of its "put" rights for the 20% interest it holds in TFM and will indemnify the company against any obligation or liability relating to the
exercise by the Mexican government of the put rights. Completion of the TFM Sale is subject to approval by the stockholders of KCS and TMM, receipt of certain governmental approvals in the United
States and Mexico and other customary conditions. We currently expect that the sale will be completed in the third quarter of 2003. There is no assurance that the process required to obtain the
necessary regulatory approvals will not delay the closing of the TFM Sale or that the TFM Sale will occur.

In
connection with the TFM sale, a consulting company (the "consultant") organized by Mr. Jose Serrano, Chairman of the board of Grupo TMM and a member of the board of TFM and
Grupo TFM, will enter into a consulting agreement with KCS pursuant to which it will provide consulting services to KCS in connection with the portion of the business of KCS in Mexico for a period of
three years. As consideration for the services, the consultant will receive an annual fee of $600,000 per year and a grant of 2,100,000 shares of restricted stock of KCS. The restricted stock will
vest as follows:



The
consulting agreement provides that the vesting of the shares will accelerate on the termination of the consulting agreement by the consultant due to a breach by KCS, and certain
changes of control of KCS (but only if there is, or has been, a successful resolution of the VAT claim). The consulting agreement may be extended for an additional one year at the option of KCS, upon
delivery of an additional 525,000 shares of restricted stock.

Grupo
TMM currently expects that the TFM Sale will be completed in the third quarter of 2003. If the TFM Sale occurs, NAFTA Rail will own 75.4% of Grupo TFM (which owns 80.0% of TFM) and
TFM will continue to own 24.6% of Grupo TFM. The Mexican government will continue to own 20.0% of TFM, until it exercises its put right. There is no assurance that the process required to obtain the
necessary regulatory approvals will not delay the closing of the TFM sale or that the TFM sale will occur.

In
addition, on May 13, 2003, we completed the sale of our interest in the ports and terminals division to an affiliate of SSA, our former joint venture partner in the ports and
terminals division, for approximately $114 million net in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments based on specified balance sheet items as of the closing date (which we
refer to herein as the "Port Sale"). Proceeds from the Port Sale were used to repurchase receivables outstanding under the company's existing receivables securitization facility as required by the
terms of the facility. Following the application of the proceeds, the outstanding certificates under the facility as of May 31, 2003 were approximately $49.7 million, which is payable on
June 30, 2003. See Item 3D "Risk FactorsRisks Related to Our Liquidity PositionWe were unable to successfully complete our exchange offers and
are currently in default under the terms of our 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We also have a significant amount of short term debt and other obligations. We will not have sufficient liquidity to repay
these obligations unless they are extended or refinanced and we complete the sale of our interest in TFM."

Our Liquidity Position

At December 31, 2002, we had $224.9 million of short-term debt with face value of $227.3 million, including $13.3 million
in face value of senior convertible notes (net of the fair market value of the note-linked securities issued in connection with these convertible notes) and $176.9 million of the
2003 Notes. The senior convertible notes were repaid in full as of May 2, 2003. The 2003 Notes matured on May 15, 2003 and we have not repaid the principal amount to date. As a result,
we are in default under the terms of the 2003 notes, and such default has resulted in a cross-default under our 2006 notes. In addition, there was approximately $49.7 million outstanding under
the Receivables Securitization Facility as of May 31, 2003, which amount is payable on June 30, 2003.

On
April 30, 2003, Promotora Servia extended the payment date for a portion of the amount owed to them under a Termination Agreement. In connection with this amendment, we made a
payment of $20.4 million (representing the amount owed under the Tax Benefits Agreement and the portion of the amount owed under the Termination Agreement that was not extended) to Promotora
Servia. The remaining unpaid balance owed to Promotora Servia is approximately $6.5 million, and is payable on June 30, 2003.

We
do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay the obligations described above. There can be no assurance that the TFM Sale will be completed and if it is not completed, we may
not be able to arrange an alternative disposition of these assets. In addition, if the TFM Sale is completed, we may need to take additional steps in order to meet these obligations when due. These
steps could include one or more of the following: receipt of the additional amounts payable by KCS upon the successful resolution of the pending VAT claim, sale of other or additional assets, such as
shares of KCS Common Stock, refinancing these amounts, negotiation of waivers or extensions with the holders of these amounts or raising equity in order to meet these obligations when due. There is no
assurance that we will be successful in completing the TFM Sale or taking such additional steps.

Other Recent Developments

VAT Award

On September 25, 2002, the Mexican Magistrates Court of the First District (the "Federal Court") issued a judgment in favor of TFM on a value added tax
claim, which has been pending in the Mexican courts since 1997. The claim arose out of the Mexican Treasury's delivery of a VAT credit certificate to a Mexican governmental agency rather than to TFM.
By a unanimous decision, the Federal Court vacated a prior judgment of the Federal Tribunal of Fiscal and Administrative Justice (the "Fiscal Court") and remanded the case to the Fiscal Court with
specific instructions to enter a new decision consistent with the guidance provided by the Federal Court's ruling. The Federal Court's ruling
requires the fiscal authorities to issue the VAT credit certificate only in the name of TFM. On December 6, 2002, the upper chamber of the Fiscal Court again ruled against TFM. On
January 8, 2003, TFM was officially notified of the new judgment of the Fiscal Court and on January 29, 2003, filed the appropriate appeal. On June 11, 2003 the federal court
issued a judgment in favor of TFM against the ruling of the fiscal court. TFM has not yet been officially notified of the new federal court's judgment, and, accordingly, does not yet know the extent
and consequences of this favorable judgment.

The
face value of the VAT certificate at issue is approximately $206 million, and the amount of any recovery will reflect adjustments for inflation and accruals of interest at
statutory rates since 1997, in accordance with the legal codes applicable from time to time since that date. If the TFM Sale is completed and the VAT claim is successfully resolved, the company will
have the right to receive from KCS an additional cash payment of between $100 million and $175 million (up to $180 million if KCS elects to defer a portion of the payment). In
order to receive any such payment, the amount of the payment must be in excess of the then current repurchase price under the put right held by the Mexican government with respect to its 20% interest
in TFM or TFM must receive the Mexican government's interest in TFM as part

38

---

of
the settlement of the VAT claim. KCS is obligated to make the payment within 90 days after the VAT payment is received, however, it can elect to defer up to $50 million of the payment
until not later than the first anniversary of the date TFM receives the VAT payment. If KCS elects to defer such amount, the amount due to the company will increase by $5 million (but not to
more than $180 million).

Grupo TMM initiated legal proceeding in Mexico

On May 15, 2003, we announced that we had initiated a legal proceeding in a court of local jurisdiction in Mexico (the "Court"), in order to prevent the
adverse effects of the imminent defaults under the 2003 notes, 2006 notes and the call option outstanding under our existing receivables securitization facility, to provide us with additional time to
complete a restructuring or refinancing of our debt obligations in an orderly fashion and to preserve our business. The Court granted an injunction and issued an order (the "Order"), which, by its
terms, prevented for all purposes in Mexico any of our current creditors from bringing any claims in Mexico for defaults on our existing debt obligations while the Order was in effect.

On
May 23, 2003, a subsequent ruling of the Court by a new judge, who replaced the judge who issued the initial Order, revoked and annulled the Order, indicating that
irregularities may have taken place during the initial presentation of the lawsuit. We did not contest the new ruling of the Court, and have terminated the professional services of the law firm that
represented us in these proceedings.

Formation of Bondholder Committee

Certain holders of 2003 notes and 2006 notes have formed an informal committee of bondholders (the "Committee"). The Committee has retained United States and
Mexican legal counsel at the expense of the Company. Our legal and financial advisors have had a preliminary meeting with the Committee's legal advisors. We expect to make a proposal to the Committee
to restructure the outstanding 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We are unable to predict the outcome of any negotiation with the Committee with respect to a restructuring of the 2003 notes and 2006 notes.

Regulatory Framework

The Mexican railroad services law and regulations provides the general legal framework for the regulation of railroad services in Mexico. Under the Mexican
railroad services law and regulations, a provider of railroad services, such as TFM, must operate under a concession granted by the Ministry of Transportation. Such a concession may only be granted to
a Mexican corporation and may not be transferred or assigned without the approval of the Ministry of Transportation. The law permits foreign investors to hold up to 49.0% of the capital stock of such
a corporation, unless otherwise authorized by theComisión Nacional de Inversiones Extranjeras(the Foreign Investment Commission). TFM
is also subject to theLey General de Bienes Nacionales(the General Law on National Assets), which regulates all assets that fall within the public
domain and by various other laws and regulations.

The
Ministry of Transportation is principally responsible for regulating railroad services in Mexico, including railroad services on TFM's rail lines. The Ministry of Transportation has
broad powers to monitor TFM's compliance with its concession, and it can require TFM to supply it with any technical, administrative and financial information it requests. TFM must comply with the
investment commitments established in its business plan, which forms an integral part of the concession, and must update the plan every five years. The Ministry of Transportation treats the business
plans confidentially. The Ministry of Transportation monitors TFM's compliance with efficiency and safety standards as set forth in the concession. The Ministry of Transportation reviews, and may
amend, these standards every five years.

The
Mexican railroad services law and regulations provides the Mexican government certain rights in its relations with TFM under the concession, including the right to take over the
management of TFM and its railroad in certain extraordinary cases, such as imminent danger to national security. In the past, the

39

---

Mexican
government has used such a power with respect to other privatized industries, including the telecommunications industry, to ensure continued service during labor disputes.

In
addition, under the concession and the Mexican railroad services law and regulations, the Mexican Antitrust Commission under certain circumstances may determine that there is a lack
of competition in the railroad industry, in which case the Ministry of Transportation would have the authority to set TFM's tariffs for rail freight services.

Certain
countries have laws which restrict the carriage of cargoes depending upon the nationality of a vessel or its crew or the origin or destination of the vessel, as well as other
considerations relating to particular national interests. According to Mexican law, cabotage (intra-Mexican movement) must be conducted by ships carrying the Mexican flag. We are currently in
compliance with all such restrictions imposed by the jurisdictions in which we operate. However, we cannot predict the cost of compliance if our business is expanded into other jurisdictions which
have enacted similar regulations.

We
are also subject to the laws of various jurisdictions and international conferences with respect to the discharge of materials into the environment. See "Environmental
Regulation" and "Insurance."

Truck
transportation within Mexico is reserved for Mexican nationals or entities that include in their constituent documents or Bylaws the "foreigners exclusion clause"
(cláusula de exclusión de extranjeros), or a clause allowing other foreign investment through "neutral investment vehicles
or securities." Truck transportation is regulated by theLey de Caminos, Puentes y Autotransporte Federaland theLey de
Vías Generales de Comunicación.

Our
port operations are subject to theLey de Puertos. Port operations require a concession title granted by the Federal Government of
Mexico to special companies incorporated under theLey de Puertos, which companies may partially assign their concession title to third parties for the
use and exploitation of assets owned by the Federal Government in the different port facilities. Various port services require a special permit granted by the Ministry of Communications and
Transportation of Mexico. Concession titles may be revoked under certain circumstances set forth by applicable law. Partial assignments of concession titles may be rescinded under certain
circumstances established in the corresponding assignment agreements. Foreign investment in special companies incorporated under theLey de Puertos(such as API Acapulco) may not exceed 49%, except through vehicles or securities deemed by applicable Mexican law as "neutral investment."

Sales and Marketing

The success of our business depends on our marketing network. Our marketing network consists of affiliated offices, agencies at Mexican ports and a sales force
based throughout Mexico and the United States to sell our logistics and specialized maritime. Our marketing and sales efforts are designed to grow and expand our current customer base business by
initiating long-term contracts. Emphasis is being placed on attracting new business in the United States, Canada and Mexico. We believe these efforts will benefit to a great extent from
NAFTA. With respect to our railroad
operations, we seek to capitalize upon our strategic advantage resulting from our direct access to key ports and interchange points through our rail lines, which connect with the extensive route
structures of the Texas Mexican Railway Company, KCSR, the Union Pacific Railroad, BNSF and other major U.S. and Canadian rail carriers.

We
have devised, implemented and will continue to implement several customer service initiatives in connection with our marketing efforts, which include the designation of customer sales
territories and assignment of customer service teams to particular customers.

Since
we commenced operations, we have been actively seeking to obtain new customer contracts with the expectation of entering into long-term contracts with several existing
customers. Although written customer contracts are not customary in Mexico, we have succeeded in negotiating written contracts with a number of our major customers.

Systems and Technology

In 2002, we changed our data center operations provider. This change will allow the company to save over $1 million in the next four years and benefit from
an improved financial position. This change has enhanced our technology processes through the Unix server platform and will provide us with significant operational efficiencies. We continue to enhance
the technology and information systems supporting our operations. These systems are regularly updated to increase operating efficiencies, improve customer satisfaction and maintain regulatory
compliance.

Also
in 2002, we continued our effort to develop a systems platform to integrate logistics services based on Internet technology. We have made considerable progress in this regard and we
expect to launch the platform during the third quarter of 2003, affording us access to a comprising a very important customer base.

Our
communications systems permit our customers to access information regarding the location and status of their cargo via touch-tone telephone, personal computer or
computer-facsimile link.

TFM
uses SICOTRA, a Union Pacific Technologies system, in order to, among other purposes, report car movements in train and yard operations and to process bill of lading information. TFM
has trained personnel to use SICOTRA and customized SICOTRA applications for its operations, including
through the addition of a new SICOTRA-based billing system. TFM has installed SICOTRA-related software programs on state-of-the-art computer hardware, improved
SICOTRA's functionality and is expanding the system into a fully integrated management information system capable of interfacing with its train dispatch systems. TFM's improvements to SICOTRA allow it
to facilitate communications with major U.S. railroads using the SICOTRA system, improve the efficiency of its operations and participate in the North American rail industry's interline services
management system, providing coordinated customer service and scheduled links among railroads.

Environmental Regulation

Our operations are subject to Mexican federal and state laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, as well as technical environmental
requirements issued by Semarnat. Semarnat and other authorized ministries have promulgated standards, for, among other things, water discharge, water supply, emissions, noise pollution, hazardous
substances, transportation and solid waste generation. The terms of the railroad and port concessions also impose on us certain environmental law compliance obligations. Both Mexrail's and the
Tex-Mex Railway's operations are subject to U.S. environmental laws and regulation. See "Insurance."

Noncompliance
with applicable legal provisions may result in the imposition of considerable fines, temporary or permanent shutdown of operations or other injunctive relief, or criminal
prosecution. We believe that all of our facilities and operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental regulations. There are currently no material legal or administrative
proceedings pending against us with respect to any environmental matters, and we do not believe that continued compliance with environmental laws will have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition or results of operations. However, we cannot predict the effect, if any, that the adoption of additional or more stringent environmental laws and regulations would have on the operations of
companies that are engaged in the type of business in which we are engaged, or specifically, on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

In
addition, our seagoing transport of petroleum and petroleum products subjects us to additional regulations and exposes us to liability specific to this activity. Laws and
international covenants adopted by several countries in the wake of the "Exxon Valdez" accident, most notably OPA 90, could result in substantial or even unlimited liability for us in the event of a
spill. Moreover, these laws subject tanker

41

---

owners
to additional regulatory and insurance requirements. We believe that we are in compliance with all material requirements of these regulations.

Insurance

Our business is affected by a number of risks, including mechanical failure of vessels and other assets, collisions, property loss, cargo or freight loss, as well
as business interruption due to weather, political circumstances, hostilities and labor strikes. In addition, the operation of any ocean-going vessel is subject to the inherent possibility of
catastrophic marine disaster, including oil spills and other environmental accidents, and the liabilities arising from owning and operating vessels in international trade. OPA 90, by imposing
potentially unlimited liability upon owners, operators and bareboat charters for certain oil pollution accidents in the United States, made liability insurance more expensive for ship owners and
operators.

We
maintain marine hull and machinery and war risk insurance, which insurance includes the risk of actual or constructive total loss. Additionally, we have protection and indemnity
insurance. We do not carry insurance covering the loss of revenue resulting from vessel off-hire time on certain vessels. We believe that our current insurance coverage is adequate to
protect against the accident-related risks involved in the conduct of our business and that we maintain a level of coverage that is consistent with industry practice. We cannot assure you, however,
that all risks are adequately insured against, that any particular claims will be paid or that we will be able to procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the future.

TFM's
business is also affected by a number of risks, including mechanical failure, collision, property loss, cargo loss or damage and business interruption due to natural disasters,
political circumstances, hostilities and labor strikes.

In
addition, the operation of any railroad is subject to the inherent possibility of catastrophic disaster, including chemical spills and other environmental accidents.

TFM's
insurance policy provides for "per-incident" maximum amounts, which vary depending upon the nature of the risk insured against. TFM's policy is renewable on an annual
basis and expires in June 2003.

TFM's
present insurance coverage insures against the accident-related risks involved in the conduct of its business, and is consistent with industry practice and the requirements of the
concession and the Mexican railroad services law and regulations. We can give no assurance, however, that all risks are or will be adequately insured against, that any particular claims will be paid
or that TFM will be able to procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the future. The Mexican railroad services law and regulations provide that, if TFM receives
insurance proceeds in respect of any damage to its rail lines, those proceeds shall be applied to the repair or remediation of such damage or, in the event that TFM elects not to undertake such
repairs, these proceeds must be paid to the Mexican government.

42

---



In recent years, we and TFM have experienced significant cost savings due to a sharp decline in liability insurance premiums resulting from heightened competition in the insurance
industry and improved safety conditions in the shipping industry; nevertheless, following the catastrophic events of September 2001 in the United States, it is widely known that the local and
foreign insurance markets have strengthened and thus we and TFM are experiencing a reduction in the costs savings we were able to achieve in the past.

Reclassification of Series A and Series L Shares

On September 13, 2002, we completed a reclassification of our Series L Shares of stock as Series A Shares. The reclassification combined our
two classes of stock into a single class by converting each share of our Series L Shares into one share of our Series A Shares. The reclassification also eliminated the variable portion
of our capital stock and we became a fixed capital corporation(sociedad anónima). Following the reclassification, we had 56,963,137
Series A Shares outstanding. As a result of the elimination of the variable portion of our capital stock, our registered name changed from Grupo TMM, S.A. de C.V. to Grupo TMM, S.A.

D. Property, Plant and Equipment

Our principal executive offices are in Mexico City, and are currently under lease through June 2005. Our business activities and the business activities of
our subsidiaries in the logistics and transportation fields are conducted with both leased and owned equipment, and, in certain instances, through concessions granted to us by the Mexican government.
We were granted the right to operate certain facilities, including the TFM railroad, certain cruise ship terminals and ports, as part of franchises awarded through the

Mexican
government's privatization activity. We operate facilities, either through leases or with direct ownership interests, in Acapulco, Aguascalientes, Altamira, Campeche, Coatzacoalcos,
Cuernavaca, Guadalajara, Hermosillo, Mexico City, Monterrey, Nuevo Laredo, Puebla, Querétaro, Ramos Arizpe, San Luis Potosí, Silao, Toluca and Tuxpan. See Item 4
"Information on the Company," Section B "Business Overview," and Notes 4 and 5 to our Financial Statements.

Concession Rights and Related Assets

Under the terms of TFM's concession, TFM has the right to use and the obligation to maintain the right of way, track structure, buildings and related maintenance
facilities in connection with the operation of the railroad division. Ownership of the property and fixtures, however, has been retained by the Mexican government.

Track

As of December 31, 2002, TFM's rail lines consisted of the following track:

|                                          |  | Lines of Track |  | Track Usage
Rights |  | Total

|                                          |  |                |  |                    |  |      
|Total                                     |  | 4,711          |  | 950                |  | 5,671

All
of TFM's track is standard gauge (56.5 inches) and is generally in good condition. All of TFM's 4,244 kilometers of main track has 100 to 136-lbs. rail and approximately
76% of such track is continuously welded rail. Continuously welded rail reduces track maintenance costs and, in general, permits trains to travel at higher speeds. The maximum allowable speed of
trains along TFM's core routes varies between 50 kph and 70 kph. Approximately 70% of TFM's main line track handles speeds of up to 60 kph. Since TFM commenced operations, it has extended sidings on
its tracks up to 10,000 feet, thus better enabling longer trains to pass or meet each other.

The
portion TFM's core route between Mexico City and Querétaro (approximately 260 kilometers) has double track, which accommodates greater traffic volume. The maximum
allowable speed along this portion of the track is approximately 50 kph. Installations along TFM's rail lines include supply centers, locomotive inspection centers, car inspection areas, repair shops,
warehouses, freight yards and intermodal terminals.

Bridges, Tunnels and Culverts

TFM's core routes and feeder lines include 1,226 bridges with a total length of 25,252 meters. There are 98 tunnels on TFM's main rail lines, having a total
length of 26,882 meters, which allow for the passage of double-stack trains. In addition, there are 7,273 culverts along the railway. In accordance with the terms of the concession, ownership of these
bridges, tunnels and culverts has been retained by the Mexican government.

Equipment

We have 474 locomotives in our fleet, of which 468 are diesel-fueled, and 6 are electric. Of the 474 locomotives, we own 342 and we lease 150 from third parties.
A majority of our locomotive leases are covered under long-term contracts for terms of 20 years. Through our long-term leasing program, we are improving locomotive
efficiency and utilization by adding state-of-the-art locomotives to our fleet that provide 48.2% more horsepower per unit than the locomotives we formerly
employed, allowing us to haul longer trains with fewer locomotives. We have also continued to decrease our fuel consumption over the past several years, due primarily to the fuel efficiency of these
new locomotives and the fact that fewer locomotives are needed to haul the same freight. The average age of the locomotives in our fleet is approximately 12 years, which in 1999 represented one
of the youngest locomotive fleets operated by a Class I railroad. The average remaining useful life of the locomotives in our fleet is about 12 years.

Of
the 474 locomotives in our fleet, approximately 228 are assigned to the hauling of freight, 50 are used for yard work, 99 locomotives are subleased to third parties (50 to the Texas
Mexican Railway Company; 10 of which are running on the BNSF line under a horsepower-per-hour interchange agreement; 27 to KCSR; and 12 to Ferrosur), 6 locomotives are
presently out of service and 73 of our locomotives, which we use primarily for yard activities, are currently in storage. We use the remaining 18 units for miscellaneous purposes such as maintenance
of way trains and industry switching.

To
supplement its fleet of owned railcars, TFM has implemented an operating lease program that allows it to effectively manage its car capacity to meet the varying demands of its traffic
volumes. TFM's leased cars consist of covered hoppers used to transport grain, new and rebuilt gondolas, box cars, open top hoppers, flat cars and tri-level and bi-level
carriers. TFM also leases large and small trucks and other equipment for a variety of functions. In addition, TFM is refurbishing some of its cars. Through its agreements with U.S. railroads regarding
car hire and its operating lease program, TFM increased its fleet size so as to eliminate shortages of railcars.

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

Operating Results

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Financial Statements
and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. Our Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS, which differ in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. Note 18 of
the Notes to the Financial Statements provides a description of the principal differences between IAS and U.S. GAAP as they relate to us, and a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP of net income and total
stockholders' equity. We were authorized by the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores (the National Banking and Securities Commission) to prepare our consolidated financial statements
in dollars under IAS.

Differences Between IAS and U.S. GAAP

The principal differences between IAS and U.S. GAAP as they relate to us are those described in Note 18 of the Consolidated Financial Statement. Each of
these differences affects both net income and stockholders' equity.

The
table below sets forth net income (loss) and total stockholders' equity calculated in accordance with IAS, and in accordance with IAS and U.S. GAAP for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

Discontinued Operations

As of January 1, 2000, we discontinued our ocean liner operations upon completion of the sale of our 50% interest in Americana Ships Limited to our joint
venture partner, CP Ships Inc. As a result, under IAS 35, "Discontinued Operations," we are required to restate our Financial Statements covering periods before the sale to distinguish our
continuing business operations from the businesses in which we no longer participate in order to make them comparable to our Financial Statements for periods
after the sale. Therefore, the financial data presented below for the year ended December 31, 1999 have been restated to reflect the discontinuation of our liner operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS, which differs in certain respects from U.S. GAAP. Note 18 to our Financial Statements
provides a description of the principal differences between IAS and U.S. GAAP as they relate to us and a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP of net income (loss) and stockholders' equity.

47

We
have identified certain key accounting policies on which our financial condition and results of operations are dependent. These key accounting policies most often involve complex
matters or are based on subjective judgments or decisions. In the opinion of our management, our most critical accounting policies under both IAS and U.S. GAAP are those related to revenue
recognition, financial statement translations into U.S. dollars, use of financial instruments and deferred income taxes. For a full description of all of our accounting policies, see Note 3 to
our Financial Statements herein.

Revenue Recognition.Voyage revenues are recognized as income at the time the voyage is completed. Revenues associated with
voyages in process are deferred and recognized at the conclusion of the voyage. Railroad revenues for the relevant accounting period are recognized as income based on the shipments originated and that
correspond to destinations actually reached during that period. This requires TFM's management, at the cut-off date for each accounting period, to estimate the progress of shipments during
that period. In addition, with respect to interline revenues and haulage and trackage rights, TFM and the other Mexican railroads are required to agree and reconcile usage amounts on a periodic basis.
TFM has had and continues to have disagreements with the other railroads with respect to such amounts and we cannot assure you that this will not continue in the future.

Financial Statement Translations into U.S. Dollars.In preparing our Financial Statements, we translate non-U.S.
dollar currency amounts to U.S. dollars following the guidelines of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation" ("SFAS 52"), IAS 29, "Financial Reporting in
Hyperinflationary Economies" ("IAS 29") and related authoritative guidance. In doing so, we have determined that the U.S. dollar is our functional currency and, therefore, we follow the historical
method of translation, and resulting translation gains or losses are reflected in earnings. The determination of our functional currency is dependent upon management's judgment and involves
consideration of all relevant economic facts and circumstances affecting us. We evaluate our functional currency each fiscal period. Our most subjective key functional currency indicators are cash
flows and sales revenues. Changes in our business in the future may impact the determination of our functional currency for subsequent periods. In the event that our functional currency is no longer
deemed to be
the U.S. dollar, our results of operations, total assets and stockholders' equity in future periods could be negatively impacted.

Financial Instruments.Fuel expense is a significant component of our operating expenses. Fuel costs are affected by various
factors including: (i) traffic levels, (ii) efficiency of operations and equipment, and (iii) fuel market conditions. We occasionally enter into transactions to hedge against
fluctuations in the price of diesel fuel purchases to protect our operating results against adverse fluctuations in fuel prices. TFM entered into certain fuel hedging transactions in 2002. See
"Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market RisksCommodity Price Sensitivity."

Deferred Income Taxes.We apply the provisions of IAS 12, "Income Taxes," and SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes,"
which are both full liability methods. Since TFM's commencement of operations, although we have generated book profits, TFM has incurred tax losses primarily due to the accelerated tax amortization of
its concession rights. TFM has recognized a deferred income tax asset for the resulting net operating loss carry forwards and may continue to recognize additional amounts in the next few years.
However, our management anticipates that such net operating loss carry forwards will be realized given the long carry forward period (through the year 2046) for amortization of the concession, as well
as the fact that we expect TFM to generate taxable income in the future. Our tax projections take into consideration certain assumptions, some of which are under our control and others of which are
not. Key assumptions include inflation rates, currency fluctuations and future revenue growth. If our assumptions are not correct, we would have to recognize a valuation allowance on our deferred tax
asset.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



Revenues

Our consolidated net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2002 were $1.01 billion, compared to consolidated net revenues of $1.0 billion
for the year 2001. The following table sets forth our revenues by business segment for the years ended December 2002 and 2001. Annual revenue increased over the prior year for our Ports,
Specialized Maritime and Logistics operations due to new product offerings and improved product mix. These increases more than offset the decline in revenues from our Railroad Operations.

Revenues for our Railroad Operations for the year ended December 31, 2002 totaled $712.3 million compared to $722.8 million for the year
ended December 31, 2001, which represented a decrease of 1.5%, due primarily to stagnant trade growth, a sluggish automotive sector and the devaluation of the peso.

The 10.6% growth in 2002 over 2001 in the industrial products, metals and minerals segments of TFM was primarily the result of the conversion of industrial products traffic from truck to
railroad transportation. The 15.9% revenue decrease in agro-industrial products in 2002 over 2001 was mainly attributable to a higher than average yield in the 2002 Mexican grain harvest
in the Sinaloa Valley which reduced grain imports from the United States. The 10.2% revenue decrease in 2002 over 2001 in the automotive products segment was a result of decreased imports and exports
due to sluggish economic conditions in Mexico and the United States. Revenues in the chemical and petrochemical products category increased 9.2% in 2002 over 2001 as a consequence of transload and
general conversion of these products from truck to rail transportation. Intermodal freight revenues increased 32.2% in 2002 over 2001 due to the continued conversion of automotive parts traffic from
truck to railroad transportation and to completed construction of intermodal yards in 2001 which resulted in expanded contracts with stacktrain operators and intermodal companies. The
Tex-Mex Railway revenues in 2002 decreased by 5.8% from 2001 revenue levels due mainly to two derailments in the fourth quarter of 2002 and to the overall reduction of grain imports.

Ports and Terminal Operations

This division's revenues increased 11.8% in 2002 compared to 2001. In 2002, revenues at Manzanillo increased 3.6% in spite of a decline in storage revenue of
$3.0 million due to an increase in container volumes of 42.8%, which accelerated in the third and fourth quarter of 2002. Revenues at Cozumel increased by 43.9% compared to 2001, as vessel
calls and passenger activity increased by 77% and 82%, respectively. Cruise ship volume increased 34% at Acapulco compared to last year. Additionally, in 2002 we signed new container shipping
contracts with Mediterranean Shipping.

Specialized Maritime Services

Revenues increased 3.6% in 2002 compared to last year. Demand for supply ships remains strong as Mexico expands production and exploration activity at oil and
natural gas reserves in the Gulf of Mexico. Supply ship revenue increased by 23% in 2002.

Logistics Operations

Logistics revenues increased 2.1% in 2002 compared to 2001. Volume for RoadRailer products almost tripled from 3,264 loads in 2001 to 10,322 loads in 2002. While
RoadRailer volume continued to grow, volume at outsourcing facilities was negatively impacted by the slow-down experienced by the automotive industry. During 2002, Ford became a new
customer of the line-feeding segment of our third party logistics business. Revenues in 2002 were partially offset by the slow-down in automotive products and by a decline in
truck brokerage. The trucking division continued to convert its assets into dedicated service contracts, avoiding the uncertainty of the spot market and tightened per diem rentals by reducing the
loading cycle. The logistics group continues its growth in intermodal terminal operations and is adding new equipment to reduce its maintenance and rental costs.

Operating Profit

Total costs and operating expenses increased 1.7% to $824.6 million in 2002 compared to $810.9 million in 2001, and operating profit decreased 2.7%
to $184.0 million from $189.1 million in 2001, both due mainly to increased costs at the Ports, Specialized Maritime and Logistics divisions.

Railroad Operations

Railroad operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2002 (including TFM and the Tex-Mex Railway) increased 1.1% to $155.7 million
in 2002, resulting in an operating margin of 21.9% (operating ratio 78.1%) compared to $154.0 million in 2001, which resulted in an operating margin of 21.3% (operating ratio 78.7%). Total
railroad operating costs and expenses, including those of TFM and the Tex-Mex Railway, amounted to $556.6 million in 2002, compared to $568.8 million in 2001, which
represents a decrease of 2.1%. The decrease in 2002 was mainly attributable to (i) a net reduction of cost of fuel, materials and supplies (TFM had currency derivatives and derivative swap
contracts regarding diesel), (ii) a decrease in salaries, wages and employee benefits due to an overhead reduction, and (iii) a reduction of overall costs by approximately
$3.0 million at the Tex-Mex Railway during the year.

Port and Terminal Operations

Operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2002 decreased to $33.4 million (including $8.5 million of estimated allocated
administrative costs) from $37.0 million (including $10.1 million of estimated allocated administrative costs), due primarily to an increase in security costs at Manzanillo of
$2.0 million and costs incurred in expanding this port facilities for increased container volume during the second half of 2002.

Specialized Maritime Services

Operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2002 decreased to $8.7 million (including $10.2 million of estimated allocated
administrative costs) from $9.0 million (including $9.8 of estimated allocated administrative costs). The decrease was mainly caused by increased costs incurred in routine and mandatory dry
dock improvements to the division's tanker fleet during the fourth quarter of 2002.

53

---

Logistics Operations

Operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2002 decreased to $4.0 million (including $5.8 million of estimated allocated administrative
costs) from $6.3 million (including $7.8 of estimated allocated administrative costs). The decrease resulted from sluggish automotive transportation activity at outsourced locations during the
second half of 2002. The division also withdrew from other unprofitable segments, shifting from port traffic and long-haul trucking to shorter haul rail drayage activity, and eliminated
certain dedicated contracts.

Financial Income and Expenses

Net financial expense incurred in the year ended December 31, 2002 was $175.1 million, compared to net financial expense of $123.0 million in
2001. Net financial expense includes a net exchange loss of $20.0 million in 2002 and a net exchange gain of $2.2 million in 2001. The increase in net financial expense is due in part to
a 12.8% peso devaluation in 2002, which accelerated in the second half of the year; also the Company's financial obligations increased by $145 million in 2002 due to the purchase of the
additional 24.6% Grupo TFM equity from the Mexican Government and accruals of TFM's discount debentures, which together accounted for $19.1 million in increased financial expense.
Additionally, financial costs were impacted by premiums on sale of receivables; the coupon and premium on redemption of the convertible notes; and lower interest earned due to lower cash balances and
lower interest in tax receivables.

Other (Expense) IncomeNet

Other expensenet of $35.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2002 includes (i) extraordinary costs, such as VAT recovery
related losses and provision for the management fee to Promotora Servia, (ii) expenses related to railroad equipment, (iii) provisions for doubtful accounts, (iv) a loss resulting
from subleasing of locomotives, (v) expenses related to non-operating assets such as track maintenance and electricity, and (vi) a loss resulting from the sale of fixed
assets. Other income-net for the year ended December 31, 2001 was of $26.8 million, which includes a gain in the sale of fixed assets.

Taxes

A tax provision of $19.8 million was reported in 2002 compared to a tax benefit of $7.1 million reported in 2001. The company's fiscal assets were
reduced by approximately $19.5 million in 2002, of which $9.3 million was due to a change in the corporate tax rate from 35% in 2001 to 34% in 2002, mainly at TFM.

Minority Interest

Minority interest decreased to ($3.5) million in 2002 from $91.1 million. This significant change is mainly attributable to a one-time gain on
the sale of fixed assets at TFM in 2001.

Net Income

The Company reported a net loss of $42.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2002, compared to net income of $8.9 million in year 2001.
The net loss in 2002 resulted from a 12.8% peso devaluation in 2002, which resulted in an exchange loss that reduced net results by $20.0 million, and through a reduction in the Company's
fiscal assets of approximately $22.0 million, of which $7.0 million was due to a change in the corporate tax rate, for a combined negative impact on net results of $42.0 million.
NOLs, however, grew in 2002, from approximately $820.0 million at TFM and $315.0 million at TMM standalone, to $1.1 billion and $322.0 million, respectively.

transportation. The

3.4%
revenue increase in agro-industrial products in 2001 over 2000 was partially attributable to enhanced traffic conversion as a result of the development of new railroad infrastructure
at key locations. The 7.5% revenue increase in 2001 over 2000 in the automotive products segment was a result of increased transportation of vehicles exported to the United States and Europe from
manufacturing plants in Mexico. Revenues in the chemical and petrochemical products category increased 10.5% in 2001 over 2000 as a consequence of new traffic for Cemex, S.A. de C.V and for the
Comisión Federal de Electricidad, the Mexican electric utility. Intermodal freight revenues increased 9.8% in 2001 over 2000 due to the continued conversion of automotive parts traffic
from truck to railroad transportation. Tex-Mex Railway revenues in 2001 decreased by 5.2% from 2000 revenue levels, caused by slower traffic due to the track rehabilitation work during the
year. Revenues in 2001 for the Tex-Mex Railway were $55.0 million and accounted for 7.6% of net consolidated railroad revenues.

Ports and Terminal Operations

Despite a worldwide slowdown, revenues from our port and terminal operations increased from $86.5 million in 2000 to $100.6 million in 2001, a 16.3%
increase, and accounted for 10.1% of net consolidated revenues. In the latter part of 2001 we reorganized this division which resulted in an
increase of productivity, as volumes in container movements increased, mainly in the port of Manzanillo, which is the best positioned port as a transhipment terminal of TMMPyT.

Specialized Maritime Services

In 2001, specialized maritime services revenues amounted to $119.0 million and accounted for 11.9% of the total net consolidated revenues. This total
represents a 10.9% decrease from total specialized maritime services revenues of $133.6 million for 2000. This decrease in revenues was mainly caused by our planned downsizing of the
unprofitable car carrier division and discontinuance of the bulk shipping services division. This division currently operates only one car carrier compared to three operated in 2000. Tugboat revenues
increased due to price adjustments and the car carrier division alliances were restructured to better utilize the remaining car carrier routes, which reduced losses.

Logistics Operations

In 2001, total logistics operations revenues amounted to $77.4 million and accounted for 7.7% of the net consolidated revenues. This total represents a
decrease of $6.6 million, or 7.9%, from the total logistics operations revenues generated in 2000 of $84.0 million. This decrease is mainly attributable to the sale to CP
Ships Inc. of certain of our truck brokerage and agency services businesses which we estimate resulted in a $12.5 million reduction in revenues for this division. The decrease in
revenues was offset, in part, by an increase in revenues from the expansion of new intermodal programs and products, such as RoadRailers. The RoadRailer program has grown from a very limited amount of
traffic in the first quarter of 2001 to more than 2,000 loads in the first quarter of 2002.

Rail Operations

Operating profit for the year decreased to $154.0 million in 2001, a 21.3% operating margin (78.7% operating ratio), from $168.6 million in 2000
representing a 8.7% decrease and a 24.1% operating margin (75.9% operating ratio). Total operating expenses, including those of TFM and the Tex-Mex Railway, amounted to
$568.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, compared to $530.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, which represents an increase of 7.3%. This increase in
the operating expenses is mainly attributable to: the Tex-Mex Railway's need to upgrade and build new track, which increased costs by approximately
$4 million;increased salary expenses at TFM of 16.8% to $111.6 million in 2001 as compared to 2000; an increase in the costs of purchased
services at TFM of $8.8 million or 7.1% in 2001 over 2000; an increase of 49.4% in the costs of materials and supplies consumed at TFM during 2001 when compared to 2000; car hire costs, net of
car hire income, and rents other than car hire which increased by 5.7% and 38.4%, respectively, in 2001 compared to 2000; and insurance costs which increased 17.2% in 2001 compared to 2000 due to an
increase of claims of cargo damage and higher premium rates. These increased operating expenses were partially offset by lower fuel expenses, which decreased 12.9% in the year ended
December 31, 2001 compared to the year ended December 31, 2000.

Ports and Terminals Operations

Operating profit for 2001 increased by 10.5% to $37.0 million (including $10.1 million of estimated allocated administrative costs), which resulted
in a 36.8% operating margin, from $33.5 million in 2000 (including $7.8 million of estimated allocated administrative costs). We reorganized the division in the latter part of 2001,
decreasing costs and expenses and expect productivity to increase as a result of the reorganization, which we expect should increase cash flow from existing operations.

Specialized Maritime Services

Operating profit increased to $9.0 million in 2001 (including $9.8 million of estimated allocated administrative costs) resulting in an operating
margin of 7.6% compared to $7.6 million in 2000 (including

57

---

$8.6 million
of estimated allocated administrative costs) which resulted in an operating margin of 5.7%. Improved margins are a result of the specialized nature of these services, as well as
lower prices of the fuel costs in this division.

Logistics Operations

Operating profit for our logistics operations division was $6.3 million in 2001 (including $7.8 million of estimated allocated administrative costs)
compared to $8.3 million for 2000 (including $7.8 million of estimated allocated administrative costs). This decrease resulted from increased transportation equipment costs (including
operating leases and operating costs) and increased depreciation. Our 2001 operating profit was also impacted by our sale of our transportation brokerage and agency services to CP Ships, which
accounted for $8 million of gross profit in 2000.

Financial Income and Expenses

Net financial expense incurred in 2001 was $123.0 million, compared to net financial expense of $159.4 million for 2000. Net financial expense
includes a net exchange gain of $2.2 million in 2001 and a net exchange loss of $1.4 million in 2000. The decrease in net financial expense is due in part to the fact that we repaid
$143.0 million of debt on October 15, 2000, representing the total outstanding principal of our 81/2% notes, which matured on such date. This repayment of debt reduced
interest expenses going forward. The decrease was also attributable to a substantial reduction in TFM's debt service which resulted from TFM using the proceeds of its commercial paper program to pay
outstanding principal amounts under its senior secured facilities.

Other IncomeNet

Other incomenet of $26.8 million for 2001 includes a gross gain of $60.7 million as a result of the sale of a redundant track of line
sold to the Mexican government. This gain was offset in part by a write-off by TFM of certain material and equipment as a result of the improvement of rail track in the
Lázaro Cárdenas to Celaya Line. Other income-net for 2000 of $3.7 million included a gain from the sale of a portion of our interest in our port
operations to SSA, and from an investment by EMD, a subsidiary of General Motors, in TMM Multimodal.

Taxes

Deferred taxes totaled $7.1 million for 2001 and $23.0 million for 2000. TFM realized a deferred income tax expense in the year ended
December 31, 2001 due to the profit recorded from the sale of the redundant La Griega-Mariscala line which was considered taxable income. The income tax benefit in the year ended
December 31, 2000 resulted from several specific provisions of Mexican Income Tax Law which permit TFM to amortize the costs of acquiring the concession rights and related assets over a
six-year period for income tax purposes and to restate the costs of these assets on an annual basis to reflect the Mexican inflation rate.

Minority Interest

Income allocated to minority interest increased to $91.1 million in 2001 compared to $57.6 million in 2000. This increase was driven mainly by the
increase in the net income of Grupo TFM from $42.7 million in 2000 to $84.9 million in 2001.

Discontinued Operations

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000, discontinued operations represented a $5.5 million loss, but had no effect on our 2001 results.

Net Income

Net income increased to $8.9 million in 2001 from $1.7 million in 2000.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our business is capital intensive and requires ongoing expenditures for, among other things, improvements to ports and terminals, structures and technology,
capital expenditures, leases and repair of equipment, and maintenance of our rail system and vessels. Our principal sources of liquidity consist of cash flows from operations, existing cash balances,
sales of assets and debt financing.

We
are primarily a holding company and conduct the majority of our operations, and hold a substantial portion of our operating assets, through numerous direct and indirect subsidiaries.
As a result, we rely on income from dividends and fees related to administrative services provided from our operating subsidiaries for our operating income, including the funds necessary to service
our indebtedness. The indentures governing TFM's notes restrict TFM's ability to pay dividends under certain circumstances limit the dividends payable to an accrued maximum aggregate amount or
"basket" based on Grupo TFM's accumulated consolidated net income after a specified date. In May 2002, TFM completed a consent solicitation of holders of its notes as a result of which the
indentures were amended to, among other things, further restrict TFM's ability to pay dividends. The amendments eliminated the amount accrued in the dividends basket (approximately
$97.5 million at March 31, 2002) with retroactive effect to
April 2, 2002, as of which date the basket will again begin to accumulate. In addition, the financial ratio required for TFM to be allowed (in the absence of a relevant exception) to incur
indebtedness or pay dividends under the indentures was increased to 3.0 to 1.0 until October 31, 2003, after which such ratio will decrease to 2.5 to 1.0.

At
December 31, 2002, we had $224.9 million of short term debt with face value of $227.3 million and $176.9 million of the 2003 Notes. The 2003 Notes matured
on May 15, 2003, and we did not make payment of the principal amount thereof or accrued interest on the due date. As a result, we are in default under the terms of the 2003 notes, and such
default has resulted in a cross-default under our 2006 notes [and under certain other obligations of the Company and our subsidiaries]. In addition, as of May 31, 2003,
there was approximately $49.7 million of certificates outstanding that are issued by the trust established under the Receivables Securitization Facility. The certificates, which we are required
to repurchase on June 30, 2003, are also in default. See Item 3 "Risk FactorsFactors Relating to Grupo TMMWe have granted a call option under
our receivables securitization program, which may result in our loss of control of Grupo TFM or TFM."Furthermore, we also owe approximately $6.5 million to our
affiliate, Promotora Servia, which is due on June 30, 2003.

We
have entered into agreements to sell our interests in Grupo TFM, which owns TFM and through which our railroad operations are conducted, and our interest in our ports and terminals
division (excluding our interest in ports at Acapulco and Tuxpan).

On
April 21, 2003, we entered into an Acquisition Agreement with KCS for the TFM Sale. Under the agreement, KCS will acquire our interest in Grupo TFM for $200 million in
cash and 18,000,000 shares of Common Stock of KCS. KCS has the right to elect to pay up to $80 million of the cash portion of the purchase price by delivering shares of KCS common stock valued
for that purpose at $12.50 per share. On June 11, 2003, the closing price for shares of KCS common stock on the New York Stock Exchange was $12.61. In addition, we will have the right to
receive an additional amount of up to $180 million in cash in the event that the pending VAT Claim (described herein) against the Mexican government by TFM is successfully resolved. Upon
completion of the TFM Sale, KCS will assume the company's obligations to make any payment upon the exercise by the Mexican government of its "put" rights for the 20% interest it holds in TFM and will
indemnify the company against any obligation or liability relating to the exercise by the Mexican government of the put rights. Completion of the transaction is subject to approval by the stockholders
of KCS and to the receipt of certain governmental approvals in the United States and Mexico. We currently expect that the sale will be completed in the third quarter of 2003. There is no assurance
that

59

---

the
process required to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals will not delay the closing of the TFM Sale or that the TFM Sale will occur. See Item 4 "Information on the Company," Section B
"Business OverviewRecent DevelopmentsThe Asset Sales."

In
addition, on May 13, 2003, we sold our interest in the Ports and Terminals division to an affiliate of SSA, our former joint venture partner, for approximately
$114 million. See Item 4 "Information on the Company," Section B "Business OverviewRecent DevelopmentsThe Asset Sales."

We
do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay the obligations described above. There can be no assurance that the TFM Sale will be completed and if it is not completed, we may
not be able to arrange an alternative disposition of these assets. In addition, if the TFM Sale is completed, we will still need to take additional steps to meet these obligations. There is no
assurance that we will be successful in completing the TFM Sale or taking such additional steps. See Item 3D "Risk FactorsRisks Related to our Liquidity
PositionWe were unable to successfully complete our exchange offers and are currently in default under the terms of our 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We also have a
significant amount of short term debt and other obligations. We will not have sufficient liquidity to repay these obligations unless they are extended or refinanced and we complete the sale of our
interest in TFM."

Our Cash Flows From Operating Activities

We generated positive cash flows from operating activities in 2000, 2001 and 2002. Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $97.7 million in
2002 compared to $100.1 million in 2001. This change was mainly attributable to changes in minority interest and gains on the sale of fixed assets.

Net
cash provided by operating activities amounted to $187.8 million for 2000. The increase in 2000 resulted mainly from changes in working capital, which resulted from increased
collections of account receivables. Deferred income taxes and minority interest increased mainly as a result of the sale of shares of a subsidiary in October 2000. Cash flows from operating
activities amounted to $100.1 million for 2001, decreasing mainly due to changes in working capital, which resulted from an increase in account receivables as a result of late payments from our
customers and a long-term account receivable for the sale of theGriega-Mariscalatrack to the Mexican government.

The
following table summarizes cash flows from operating activities for the periods indicated.

Our Cash Flows From Investing Activities

In 2002, net cash used in investing activities was $302.9 million and was mainly attributable to the acquisition of an additional 24.6% equity interest in
Grupo TFM from the Mexican government for approximately $162.6 million, to the expenditure of $37.8 million in the acquisition of shares in subsidiaries and to the expenditure of $107 in
machinery and equipment and other assets.

Net
cash used in investing activities in 2001 was $96.0 million and was mainly attributable to the acquisition of property, machinery and equipment.

In
2001, we made $110.3 million of capital expenditures, comprised of $84.6 million for railroad equipment and construction in process, $14.0 million for specialized
maritime equipment and the acquisition of shares of a subsidiary, $6.6 million for port and terminal facilities, and $5.1 million for other assets.

Net
cash provided by investing activities of $55.6 million in 2000 was attributable primarily to aggregate sales of shares in subsidiaries, sales of marketable securities, sales
of machinery and equipment, and sales of other assets totaling $188.1 million. This total was partially offset by capital expenditures totaling $105.7 million consisting of railroad
equipment, constructions in process for the expansion and rehabilitation of rail tracks, expansions and remodeling of port facilities, purchases of machinery and equipment and other assets, and
acquisition of shares of our associated companies. See "Capital Expenditures and Divestitures" for further details of capital expenditures relating to the years 2002, 2001 and 2000.

Our Cash Flows From Financing Activities

In 2002, cash provided in financing activities was $180.5 million, which was primarily attributable to proceeds from TFM's 121/2% Senior
Notes offering as well as proceeds from our senior convertible notes.

In
2001, cash used in financing activities was $10.4 million, which was primarily attributable to payments and proceeds, net of commercial paper of $25.2 million, which was
partially offset by cash received from the sale of account receivables.

In
2000, cash used in financing activities amounted to $250.7 million, including $143.0 million for the payment for our 81/2% Notes in October 2000,
$75.8 million in payments under revolving credit facilities and $20.0 million in payments related to the sale of accounts receivable. These amounts were partially offset by cash received
from the sale of accounts receivables and borrowings under our commercial paper facility.

121/2% Senior Notes due 2012

TFM issued senior notes in June 2002. The senior notes are denominated in dollars, bear interest semiannually at a fixed rate of 121/2% and
mature on June 15, 2012. The senior notes are redeemable at TFM's option on or after June 15, 2007 and, subject to certain limitations, at any time in the event of certain changes in
Mexican tax law.

The
senior notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of TFM, rankpari passuin right of payment with all existing and future
unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of TFM, and are senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of TFM. The senior notes are redeemable, at TFM's option, in whole or in part,
on or after June 15, 2007 and prior to maturity, at the following redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount at maturity), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any:

113/4% Senior Discount Debentures due 2009

TFM's debentures denominated in U.S. Dollars were issued in June 1997 at a substantial discount from their principal amount of $443.5 million. No
interest accrued on these debentures prior to June 15, 2002. The debentures will mature on June 15, 2009. The discounted offering price of the debentures represents a fixed yield to
maturity of 113/4%, computed on the basis of semiannual compounding and maturing on June 15, 2002. Interest on the debentures is payable semiannually at a fixed rate of
113/4%, commencing on December 15, 2002. The debentures are redeemable, at TFM's option, in whole or in part, on or after June 15, 2002 and prior to maturity, at the
following redemption prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount at maturity), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any:

The
debentures are also redeemable at TFM's option, subject to certain limitations, in the event of certain changes in Mexican tax law. The debentures are unsecured, unsubordinated
obligations of TFM, rankpari passuin right of payment with all existing and future unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of TFM and are senior in
right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of TFM. The debentures are unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured, unsubordinated basis by Grupo TFM.

101/4% Senior Notes due 2007

TFM issued these senior notes in June 1997. The senior notes are denominated in dollars, bear interest semiannually at a fixed rate of
101/4% and mature on June 15, 2007. The senior notes are also redeemable at TFM's option, subject to certain limitations, in the event of certain changes in Mexican tax law.

The
senior notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of TFM, rankpari passuin right of payment with all existing and future
unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of TFM, and are senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of TFM. The senior notes are unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured,
unsubordinated basis by Grupo TFM.

65

---

101/4% Senior Notes due 2006

We issued the 2006 notes ("2006 notes") on November 15, 1996 in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million, all of which was outstanding as of
May 31, 2003. The 2006 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 101/4% per annum. We are required to make interest payments on the 2006 notes on each May 15 and
November 15 until maturity. The 2006 notes mature on November 15, 2006 and are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations, rankpari passuin
right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured, unsubordinated obligations, and are senior in right of payment to all of our future subordinated indebtedness.

The
indenture governing the 2006 notes contains certain covenants that impose certain limitations and restrictions on our ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make
other distributions, make certain loans and investments, apply the proceeds of asset sales (and use the proceeds thereof), create liens, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, merge,
consolidate or transfer substantially all of our assets and make investments in unrestricted subsidiaries. The events of default under the indentures include various events of default customary for
similar issues of notes, including the failure to pay principal and interest when due, cross defaults on other indebtedness in excess of $10.0 million and certain events of bankruptcy,
insolvency and reorganization. Upon consummation of the exchange offers and consent solicitations, virtually all of the restrictive covenants and defaults described above will be eliminated.

As
a result of our failure to pay the principal amount due on our 91/2% senior notes due 2003 ("2003 notes") at the maturity date on May 15, 2003, we defaulted on
the 2003 notes, which default caused a cross-default under the indenture governing the 2006 notes. We also failed to make our interest payment on the 2006 notes that was due on May 15, 2003.
See Item 3D "Risk FactorsRisks Relating to Our Liquidity PositionWe were unable to successfully complete our exchange offers and are currently
in default under the terms of our 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We also have a significant amount of short term debt and other obligations. We will not have sufficient liquidity to repay these
obligations unless they are extended or refinanced and we complete the sale of our interests in TFM."

91/2% Senior Notes due 2003

We issued the 2003 notes on May 15, 1993 in an aggregate principal amount of $200 million, of which approximately $176.9 million was
outstanding as of May 31, 2003. The 2003 notes accrue interest at a rate of 91/2% per annum. We are required to make interest payments on the 2003 notes on each May 15 and
November 15 until maturity. The 2003 notes matured on May 15, 2003, and we have not repaid the principal amount to date. As a result of the failure to repay the 2003 notes at maturity, a
default occurred under the terms of the 2003 notes, which also resulted in a cross-default under the 2006 notes. If we are unable to refinance or repay the 2003 notes or our 2006 notes, or fail to
meet our other obligations (such as our obligation to repurchase the receivables under the receivables securitization facility), holders of the 2003 notes, 2006 notes and some of our creditors, as the
case may be, could take legal action against us, including instituting a reorganization proceeding in Mexico. See Item 3D "Risk FactorsRisks Relating to Our Liquidity
PositionWe were
unable to successfully complete our exchange offers and are currently in default under the terms of our 20034 notes and 2006 notes. We also have a significant amount of short term debt and other
obligations. We will not have sufficient liquidity to repay these obligations unless they are extended or refinanced and we complete the sale of our interests in TFM."

Senior Convertible Notes

On May 2, 2003, we repaid all of our outstanding senior convertible notes. An aggregate amount of 1,311,299 note-linked securities relating to
the senior convertible notes remain outstanding until May 29, 2005, unless redeemed by us prior to such date.

New TFM Bank Facilities

On September 17, 2002, TFM entered into two new bank facilities provided by a consortium of banks for an aggregate amount of $250 million in order
to refinance its commercial paper program. One of the facilities consists of a two-year commercial paper facility in the amount of $122 million, which is supported by a letter of
credit issued under the bank facility. The new commercial paper facility allows TFM to draw-down advances from time to time, subject to certain terms and conditions. The obligations of the
commercial paper facility rank at leastpari passuwith the other senior unsecured indebtedness of TFM. The commercial paper facility contains customary
covenant restrictions, including the maintenance of certain coverage tests, restrictions on certain payments, limitations on dividends, limitations on affiliate transactions and restrictions on asset
sales. The other new bank facility is a four-year term loan in the amount of $128 million. The term loan is payable in semi-annual installments beginning in
September 2003 and ending in September 2006. The obligations of the term loan facility rank at leastpari passuwith the other senior
unsecured indebtedness of TFM. The term loan facility contains customary covenant restrictions, including the maintenance of certain coverage tests, restrictions on certain payments, limitations on
dividends, limitations on affiliate transactions and restrictions on asset sales. TFM used approximately $60 million of the proceeds of the new bank facilities to retire its commercial paper
program. There is currently $122 million outstanding under the commercial paper facility and $125 million outstanding under the term loan facility.

Euro-Commercial Paper Program

In April 1999, TMM established a Euro-Commercial Paper Program in the amount of $150.0 million under which notes may be issued with
maturities of up to 360 days. As of December 31, 2002, an aggregate principal amount of $14.9 million was outstanding. We used the proceeds from the
first tranche of our Convertible Notes to pay down a portion of our outstanding Euro-Commercial Paper. We used a portion of the proceeds from the December 23, 2002, expansion of our
receivables securitization facility to repay our outstanding Euro-Commercial Paper.

There
can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to issue notes in the future or that we will have sufficient funds to redeem any such notes if required to do so.

Other Short-Term Debt

As of December 31, 2002, we had an aggregate principal amount of $2.0 million outstanding under a loan from Banco Mifel, S.A. Also outstanding was
$1.2 million from the short-term portion of our long-term debt with Banco Invex, which is described below.

Other Long-Term Debt

As of December 31, 2002, our other long-term debt payments are comprised of principal and interest payments on existing bank debt with Banco
Invex in the principal amount of $2.6 million, which matures in December of 2005.

Capital Leases

The amount outstanding under our capital lease represents payment obligations under a capital lease agreement which matures in May 2005 for the financing
of a container-handling crane. The agreement contains standard provisions for this type of transaction under which, among other things, we have the option to purchase the financed assets at the end of
the lease term at a previously determined price.

TFM
has payment obligations under capital lease agreements for the financing of two real estate properties for a period of 10 years. TFM's capital lease agreements contain
standard provisions for this

67

---

type
of transaction including an option to purchase the financed assets at the end of the term of the respective agreement at a specified price.

Operating Leases

Vessel,
Transportation Equipment and Other Operating Leases

We
lease vessels, transportation and container handling equipment, our corporate office building and other assets under agreements, which are classified as operating leases. The terms of
these lease agreements fluctuates between 1 and 15 years and contain standard provisions for these types of operating agreements.

Locomotive Operating Leases

In May 1998 and September 1999, TFM entered into two locomotive operating lease agreements, which allow TFM to maintain a more efficient fleet of
locomotives. Each operating lease covers 75 locomotives, which expire at various times over the next 18 and 19 years, respectively. The lease agreements contain standard provisions for this
type of transaction, including the option to either purchase the assets or return the assets to the lessor at the end of the lease term.

Railcar Operating Leases

TFM leases certain railcars under standard agreements which are classified as operating leases. The length of the term of these agreements range on average from 3
to 15 years.

Other Arrangements

Receivables Securitization Facility

On October 28, 2002, we and certain subsidiaries entered into amended and restated agreements relating to the receivables securitization program which
began in December 2001 (the "Securitization Program"). The agreements modified and restated certain provisions of the Securitization Program and expanded the outstanding amount of the
Securitization Program by a net amount of $30 million. On December 23, 2002, we received an additional $35.0 million from an expansion of the program. The proceeds were primarily
used by the Company to repay outstanding Euro Commercial Paper. Under the Securitization Program, we and certain of our subsidiaries sold receivables (including certain future receivables) to a trust
which, in turn, issued two series of certificates to investors. From the original sale of receivables and the issuance by the trust of $25 million face amount of certificates (the
"Series 2001 Certificates") in December 2001, we and our subsidiaries received approximately $23.2 million, net of fees and expenses. From the sale of additional receivables and
the issuance by the trust of an additional $35 million face amount of certificates (the "Series 2002 Certificates" and, together with the Series 2001 Certificates, the
"Certificates") in October 2002, we and our subsidiaries received an additional approximately $32.9 million, net of fees and expenses of which $5.0 million were applied to reduce
the then outstanding amount of Series 2001 Certificates. On December 23, 2002, we received an additional $33.4 million, net of fees and expenses, of Series 2002
Certificates from an expansion of the program. After giving effect to the issuance of the Series 2002 Certificates and the reduction in the outstanding Series 2001 Certificates,
approximately $86.7 million of certificates were outstanding at December 31, 2002. Following payment of a portion of the facility with the proceeds from the Port Sale, the amount
outstanding under our receivables securitization program was $49.7 million on May 31, 2003, which is payable on June 30, 2003. The obligations represented by the certificates are
currently in default as a result of the default under the 2003 notes. To date, however, neither the trustee nor the holders of certificates has provided notice of an event of default rapid
amortization event, although they may do so at any time. For accounting purposes, the Securitization Program represents the total dollar amount for future services pending to be

68

---

rendered
to customers under the receivables securitization program and is reflected as such in our financial statements.

Pursuant
to the agreements relating to the Securitization Program, (i) if collections of the receivables held by the trust do not provide funds sufficient to make the required
quarterly payments on the Certificates and to maintain required levels of reserve accounts established as part of the Securitization Program, we and our subsidiaries participating in the program are
required to pay to the trust an amount sufficient to cover any shortfall in the collections from such receivables and (ii) upon the happening of certain events, including the failure of the
Company and its subsidiaries to comply with certain covenants or to take certain actions by specified dates or the failure of the trust to pay the interest or principal on the Certificates or to pay
the Certificates at maturity, we are required to repurchase from the trust all of the receivables then held by the trust for an amount equal to the remaining outstanding principal of and accrued
interest on the Certificates, together with certain expenses and fees of the trustee. Upon the repayment in full of the Certificates, we can direct the trust to pay the Company and its subsidiaries
any receivable amounts collected by it.

Under
the Securitization Program, TMM Multimodal has granted to the trust an option to acquire shares of Grupo TFM owned by it. The previously described option become exercisable upon
the occurrence of certain events, including the nonpayment events described above and the failure of the Company to comply with certain financial and other covenants, and for a number of shares
necessary to provide the trust with sufficient funds to pay the Certificates in full. Exercise of either option is subject to certain transfer restrictions contained in the bylaws of Grupo TFM.

Our
ability to satisfy our obligations under this facility in the future will depend upon our operating performance, including our ability to maintain our existing customer base and
increase revenues.

Payments to Promotora Servia

Under the terms of a Termination Agreement, we and Promotora Servia, an affiliate that is owned by members of the Serrano Segovia family, agreed to terminate a
management services agreement pursuant to which Promotora Servia or its predecessor company provided certain management services to us, effective upon payment of $17.5 million to Promotora
Servia. The payment was required to be made on April 30, 2003 but we amended it and extended the payment deadline for a portion of the amount owned. On April 30, 2003, we paid
$20.4 million (representing the amount owed under the Tax Benefits Agreement and the portion of the amount owed under the Termination Agreement that was not extended) to Promotora Servia in
connection with this amendment. The remaining unpaid balance owed to Promotora Servia is approximately $6.5 million and is payable on June 30, 2003. See Item 7B"Related
Party Transactions."

The GM Put Option

In October 2000, EMD, a subsidiary of General Motors, invested $20.0 million in our subsidiary TMM Multimodal (representing a 3.36% interest in TMM
Multimodal). EMD's investment as a strategic partner is part of our overall strategy designed to encourage the participation of strategic investors in our portfolio. Under the terms of the
Subscription and Stockholder Agreement relating to its investment in TMM Multimodal, EMD has the right to cause Grupo TMM to purchase, or, alternatively, to cause TMM Multimodal to redeem, all, but
not less than all, of EMD's shares in TMM Multimodal (the "GM Put Option"). The GM Put Option is exercisable by EMD at any time during the period beginning June 30, 2003 and ending
June 30, 2007, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain events. The price to be paid upon exercise of the GM Put Option is $20 million, plus interest compounded annually from
June 30, 2000 at the rate of 12% per annum, less certain distributions received by EMD in respect of its shares of TMM Multimodal. EMD also has the right, under certain circumstances, to
exchange its shares of TMM Multimodal for shares in either Grupo TMM or Grupo TFM. In addition, Grupo TMM and TMM

69

---

Multimodal
have the right to acquire or redeem all, but not less than all, of EMD's shares in TMM Multimodal for a price of $20 million, plus interest compounded annually from June 30,
2000 at rates beginning at 15% per annum for periods up to June 30, 2003 and increasing periodically to 20% per annum for periods after June 30, 2010, less certain distributions received
by EMD in respect of its shares of TMM Multimodal.

The Mexican Government's Put Option

The Mexican government has the right to sell its 20.0% equity interest in TFM by October 31, 2003 in a public offering, subject to the approval of Grupo
TMM and KCS. If a public offering of TFM shares does not occur by that date and the Mexican government exercises its put option, Grupo TFM will have the obligation to purchase the Mexican government's
interest in TFM at the original peso purchase price per share paid by Grupo TFM for its 80.0% equity interest in TFM, indexed to Mexican inflation. If Grupo TFM does not purchase the Mexican
government's TFM shares, the Mexican government may require Grupo TMM and KCS, or either Grupo TMM or KCS alone, to purchase the TFM shares at such price and release Grupo TFM from its obligation.
There is no assurance that Grupo TFM, Grupo TMM or KCS will have sufficient funds to acquire the Mexican government's interest.

If
the TFM Sale is completed, KCS will assume all of our obligations under the put option and will indemnify us from any losses incurred as a result of the exercise by the Mexican
government of the repurchase right.

TFM's Other Contracts not Classified as Indebtedness or Lease Obligations

Locomotives Maintenance Agreements

TFM entered into locomotive maintenance agreements with various contractors, under which these contractors provide both routine maintenance and major overhauls of
TFM's locomotive fleet in accordance with the requirements of the United States Federal Railroad Administration, which enables TFM's locomotives to operate in the United States pursuant to
interchanges with major U.S. railroads.

TFM's
locomotive maintenance contracts mature at various times between 2009 and 2020 and contain standard provisions for these types of arrangements.

Track
Maintenance and Rehabilitation Agreement

In
May 2000, TFM entered into a track maintenance and rehabilitation agreement which expires in 2012. Under this contract, the contractor provides both routine maintenance and
major rehabilitation of TFM's Celaya-Lázaro Cárdenas line. The agreement contains standard provisions for this type of operational agreement.

Sale of Mexrail

In May 2003, TFM sold a 51.0% interest in Mexrail and its wholly-owned subsidiary, the Texas Mexican Railway Company, to KCS for $32.6 million. The Mexrail
stock sold will remain in an independent voting trust pending approval of the transaction by the STB. The Texas Mexican Railway Company operates a 521-mile railway between Laredo and
Beaumont, Texas, via Placedo, Victoria, Flatonia, Rosenberg, and Houston, Texas. Mexrail owns the northern, or U.S., portion of the international rail bridge at Laredo. Proceeds from the sale were
re-invested by TFM. We have the right, exercisable at any time prior to the approval of the transaction by the STB, to cause TFM to repurchase the shares held by the voting trust. On
June 9, 2003, the STB accepted the KCS/Tex Mex application under the STB's rules governing "minor" transactions and requested additional information regarding the competitive implications
within the U.S. of the proposed sale of TFM to KCS. Accordingly, KCS and Tex Mex supplemented their application to the STB on June 23, 2003.

70

---

The Grupo TFM Call Option

In connection with the original formation of Grupo TFM, the Mexican government purchased a 24.63% non-voting interest in Grupo TFM for
$198.8 million. The Mexican government also granted the original shareholders of Grupo TFM an option (the "call option") to purchase the government's equity interest in Grupo TFM. TFM has been
appointed as the purchaser and, on July 29, 2002, purchased all of the call option shares for an aggregate purchase price of $256.1 million. The purchase price for the call option shares
was financed through (1) a portion of the proceeds of the issuance of $180 million of debt securities by TFM and (2) $85.2 million (based on the applicable exchange rate as
of March 31, 2002) payable to TFM by the Mexican government as a result of TFM's recent transfer of a redundant portion of its track to the government, together with cash from TFM's operations.
As a result of the acquisition of the call option shares, TFM expects to achieve financial benefits and will reduce the Mexican government's ownership and involvement in its business.

Risks Associated With Our Ability to Service or Refinance Our Debt

Our ability to satisfy our obligations under our debt in the future will depend upon our future performance, including our ability to increase revenues
significantly and control expenses. Our future operating performance depends upon prevailing economic, financial, business and competitive conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our
control.

If
our cash flow from operations is insufficient to satisfy our obligations, we may take specific actions, including delaying or reducing capital expenditures, attempting to refinance
our debt at or prior to its maturity or, in the absence of such refinancing, attempting to sell assets quickly in order to make up for any shortfall in payments under circumstances that might not be
favorable to getting the best price for the assets, or seeking additional equity capital. Our ability to refinance our debt and take other actions will depend on, among other things, our financial
condition at the time, the restrictions in the instruments governing our debt and other factors, including market conditions, the macroeconomic environment, and the level of such variables as the
peso-dollar exchange rate and benchmark money-market rates in pesos and dollars. In particular, $176.9 million of our senior notes matured on May 15, 2003 and we have not
repaid the principal amount to date. As a result, we are in default under the terms of the 2003 notes, and such default has resulted in a cross-default under our 2006 notes. See Item 3D "Risk
FactorsRisks Relating to Our Liquidity PositionWe were unable to successfully complete our exchange offers and are currently in default under the
terms of our 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We also have a significant amount of short term debt and other obligations. We will not have sufficient liquidity to repay these obligations unless they are
extended or refinanced and we complete the sale of our interests in TFM."

C. Research And Development, Patents And Licenses, Etc.

Not applicable.

D. Trend Information

We have a substantial amount of debt and significant debt service obligations. Our substantial indebtedness could interfere with our ability to pay interest and
principal on our debt and may have important consequences for our operations and capital expenditure requirements in the future. The ability to satisfy our obligations under our debt in the future
will depend upon our future performance, including our ability to increase revenues significantly and control expenses. Future operating performance depends upon prevailing economic, financial,
business and competitive conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our ability to refinance our debt and take other actions will depend on, among other things, our financial
condition at the time, the restrictions in the instruments governing our debt and other factors, including market conditions, the macroeconomic environment and such variables as the
Peso-Dollar exchange rate and benchmark money market rates in Pesos and Dollars beyond our control. In particular, $176.9 million of our senior notes matured on May 15, 2003
and we have not repaid the principal amount to date. As a result, we are in default under the terms of the 2003 notes, and such default has resulted in a cross-default under our 2006 notes. See Item
3D "Risk FactorsRisks Relating to Our Liquidity PositionWe were unable to successfully complete our exchange offers and are currently in default under
the terms of our 2003 notes and 2006 notes. We also have a significant amount of short term debt and other obligations. We will not have sufficient liquidity to repay these obligations unless they are
extended or refinanced and we complete the sale of our interests in TFM."

We
have funded, and expect to continue to fund, capital expenditures with funds from operating cash flows and debt financing. We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows from
our operations or obtain sufficient funds from external sources to fund our capital expenditure requirements. Also, additional financing may not be available to us.

TFM
faces significant competition from trucks and other rail carriers as well as limited competition from the shipping industry in our freight operations. In the past, the trucking
industry has significantly eroded the railroad's market share of Mexico's total overland freight transportation. In some circumstances, the trucking industry can provide effective rate and service
competition because trucking requires substantially smaller capital investments and maintenance expenditures, and allows for more
frequent and flexible scheduling. Since a key element of TFM's business strategy is to recapture market share lost to the trucking industry, TFM's inability to successfully convert traffic from truck
to rail transport would materially impair TFM's ability to achieve its strategic objectives. See Item 3D"Risk Factors"

B. Compensation

For the year ended December 31, 2002, the aggregate total compensation paid to our 34 directors, alternate directors and executive officers for services in
all capacities, including the consideration paid by Grupo TMM to Mr. José Serrano Segovia for his services, was approximately $6.7 million. See Item
7"Major Shareholders and Related Party TransactionsRelated Party Transactions."

Pension, retirement or similar benefits

All of our Mexican officers and employees are participants in our retirement plan. In general, (1) benefits under the retirement plan are payable when a
participant reaches the age of 60 or on the date the participant actually retires; and (2) benefits are payable as an annuity paid monthly during the remaining lifetime of the employee. As of
December 31, 2002, we had accrued $12.2 million to provide pension, retirement and other similar benefits. See Note 15 to our Financial Statements.

C. Board Practices

Our Bylaws provide that our board of directors shall consist of at least five but not more than twenty directors elected at our annual ordinary shareholders'
meeting to serve until their successors accept their election at the next annual ordinary shareholders' meeting. The board of directors is responsible for the

75

---

management
of the Company. Mexican law requires that at least 25% of the members of the board be independent directors.

Special Committees and Statutory Auditors

The stockholders of the Company appointed an audit committee to assist in handling the various functions of the Board. The audit committee members are
Mr. John Donnelly and Mr. John Newbold. The audit committee oversees the financial reporting process for which management is responsible, reviews with our auditors the scope and results
of our internal audit procedures, reviews the independence of the audit and non-audit services provided by the auditors, considers the range of audit and non-audit fees,
reviews and discusses with our independent auditors and management the effectiveness of our system of internal accounting controls and makes inquiries into other matters within the scope of its
duties. Permanent invitees to meetings of the Audit Committee include Alberto del Castillo V. Vilchis and Javier Garcia Sabaté. The board does not have a standing Compensation
Committee.

At
our 2003 annual ordinary shareholders' meeting, Alberto del Castillo V. Vilchis was elected to be our statutory auditor and Javier García Sabaté was
re-elected to serve as our statutory
alternate auditor until their successors accept election at the next annual ordinary shareholders' meeting.

D. Employees

As of December 31, 2002, we employed 5,999 persons, not including 3,725 persons employed in our railroad division. Approximately 63% of our workforce was
unionized. As of May 31, 2003, following the sale of the ports and terminals division, we employed 4,062 (excluding employees of the railroad division), approximately 52% of which are
unionized. In accordance with customary practice in Mexico, we negotiate union contracts annually with regard to wages and every two years with regard to other matters, including benefits. We have
experienced nine strikes since 1958. The longest of these strikes occurred in 1981 and lasted 21 days. We have not experienced a strike since 1987 and believe that relations with our employees
are good.

Commencing
in the first quarter of 1999, we effected a corporate reorganization with the goal of reducing administrative costs by creating a more efficient management structure. The
reorganization primarily consisted of cost reductions at our corporate headquarters, where the corporate employee headcount was reduced by approximately 50.0%, or 116 employees, through the
elimination of redundant positions and the transfer of certain employees to other business areas. This program of corporate overhead reduction continued in 2001 and 2002. During 2001, we reduced our
headcount by 40 employees and 50 employees during 2002.

E. Share Ownership

As of December 31, 2001, Messrs. Javier Segovia Serrano, Mario Mohar Ponce, Brad Lee Skinner and Horacio Reyes Guzmán beneficially
owned Series A Shares of Grupo TMM. Each of these individuals owns less than 1% of the outstanding Series A Shares, and other than as set forth below in the table entitled "Major
Shareholders," no other directors, alternate directors or executive officers owned any shares of our capital stock. As of December 31, 2002, Messrs. José Serrano Segovia
and Ramón Serrano Segovia together with their sister, Ms. Teresa Serrano Segovia, controlled an aggregate of 26,517,918 Series A Shares, representing 46.6% of the
outstanding Series A Shares.

Series A
Shares were contributed to the Master Neutral Investment Trust (Fideicomiso Maestro de Inversion Neutra) (the "CPO Trust") established with a 30-year term by
Nacional Financiera, S.N.C. (the "CPO Trustee") on November 24, 1989. The CPO Trustee authorized the issuance of non-redeemable ordinary participation certificates
(certificacíones de participación ordinarios no amortizables) ("CPOs") that correspond to our Series A Shares. One CPO may be issued for each Series A Share
contributed to the CPO Trust. CPOs constitute separate negotiable instruments different and apart from the Series A

76

---

Shares,
and afford to their holders only economic right with respect to the Series A Shares held in to CPO Trust. Such voting rights are exercisable only by the CPO Trustee, which is required
by the terms of the CPO Trust to vote such Series A Shares in the same manner as holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares not held in the CPO Trust and voted at the
relevant meeting. Mexican and non-Mexican investors may hold CPOs without restriction of any kind. The acquisition of Series A Shares representing 5% or more of the capital stock of
Grupo TMM by any person or group of persons (other than the Serrano Segovia Family and the CPO Trustee), in one or a series of simultaneous or successive transactions requires the prior approval of
the board of directors. As of May 31, 2003, the CPO Trustee held CPO's underlying an aggregate of 48,380,116 Series A Shares.

ITEM 7. MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

A. Major Shareholders

The following table indicates, as of March 31, 2003, unless otherwise indicated, the persons or groups, who or which we know to be the beneficial owners of

"Information on the Company," Section B "Business OverviewReclassification of Series A and Series L Shares." The beneficial ownership amounts set forth below are
calculated in accordance with the guidelines of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, each person with shared voting and dispositive power with respect to certain securities may be
deemed to own the totality of such securities for purposes hereof.

B. Related Party Transactions

We have a professional services agreement (the "Management Agreement") with our former controlling shareholder, Grupo Servia, into which we merged in December of
2001, pursuant to which Grupo Servia provided to us administrative, financial, corporate and operational services. As consideration for Grupo Servia's services, we were obligated to pay Grupo Servia,
on a monthly basis, 1% of our monthly net consolidated revenues (excluding TFM). Pursuant to the Management Agreement, Grupo Servia was paid $3.59 million for its services in 2000 and
$1.94 million for its services through July of 2001.

We
and Promotora Servia agreed to terminate the Management Agreement, pursuant to a termination agreement, as amended (the "Termination Agreement"). In accordance with the terms of the
Termination Agreement, we and Promotora Servia agreed to terminate the Management Agreement effective March 6, 2003 and we agreed, in consideration of such termination, to pay a sum of
$17.5 million to Promotora Servia on April 30, 2003. On April 30, 2003, we paid $20.4 million (representing the amount owed under the Tax Benefits Agreement and the portion
of the amount owed under the Termination Agreement that was not extended) to Promotora Servia. The remaining unpaid balance owed to Promotora Servia is approximately $6.5 million. Promotora
Servia is owned by members of the Serrano Segovia family: 57.14% by José F. Serrano Segovia and 42.86% by Ramón Serrano Segovia.

KCS Transportation Company Management Services Agreement

TFM and KCS Transportation Company entered into a management services agreement pursuant to which KCS Transportation Company agreed to provide certain rail
consulting and management services to TFM. Pursuant to this agreement, KCS Transportation Company agreed to make available to TFM executive rail managers familiar with U.S. railroad practices and
methods, including its President and Chief Executive Officer, an operations manager, a marketing manager, a plant maintenance manager and a terminal operations manager, to assist in the development of
operating and marketing practices and strategies. TFM agreed to reimburse KCS Transportation Company quarterly in arrears for the costs of its agents and employees and
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the provision of such services. The management services agreement was for an initial term of 12 months commencing
May 1997 and was renewable for additional one-year periods.

On
April 30, 2002, TFM and KCS, as successor in interest through merger to KCS Transportation Company, entered into an amendment to the management services agreement that provides
for automatic renewal of the agreement and compensates KCS for its services under the agreement. The amendment states that KCS is entitled to receive (1) $2,500,000 paid in nine equal monthly
installments beginning in April 2002, as compensation for services rendered between January 1, 1999 and December 31, 2000; (2) an additional $2,500,000 in a lump sum
payment on or before January 2, 2003 as compensation for services rendered from January 1, 2001 through December 31, 2002; and (3) quarterly service payments, payable in
arrears, for the period beginning January 1, 2003 at an annual rate of $1,250,000. The management services agreement is terminable by either party upon 60 days written notice.

C. Interest of Experts and Counsel

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

See Item 18"Financial Statements."

Legal Proceedings

In September 1998, the European Commission imposed administrative fines on us and other oceanliner companies as a result of the European Commission's
ruling that the companies had failed to comply with provisions of the Transatlantic Conference Accord Procedures pertaining to competition. The fine imposed on us totaled approximately
$6.9 million. We have asked the European Commission to reverse its ruling or reduce the fine, and we anticipate that the fine could be significantly reduced, but we cannot assure you that the
European Commission will change its original ruling. We do not believe that the outcome of this ruling will have an adverse effect on us.

79

On
September 14, 2001, the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit notified us of a tax assessment in the amount of ps. 326.0 million (equivalent to approximately
$34.0 million dollars), for certain alleged irregularities detected in a tax audit involving the fiscal years 1995 and 1996. Our management believes that such assessment has no merit and has
prepared its legal defense accordingly. We have not provided for this contingency in our Financial Statements.

TFM
and Ferromex have not been able to agree upon the rates each of them is required to pay to the other for interline services and haulage and trackage rights. Therefore, in accordance
with TFM's rights under the Mexican railroad services law and regulations, in February 2001, TFM initiated an administrative proceeding requesting a determination of such rates by the Ministry
of Transportation.

In
September 2001, Ferromex filed a legal claim against TFM relating to the payments that TFM and Ferromex are required to make to each other for interline services and trackage
and haulage rights. TFM believes that this legal claim is without merit, and that the payments for interline services and trackage and haulage rights owed to TFM by Ferromex exceed the amount of
payments that Ferromex claims TFM owes to Ferromex for such services and rights. Accordingly, TFM believes that the outcome of this legal claim will not have a material adverse effect on the financial
condition of TFM. On September 25, 2002, the third civil court of Mexico City rendered its judgment in favor of TFM. Ferromex has appealed the judgment and TFM cannot predict whether it will
ultimately prevail.

In
connection with the Ferromex claim, Ferromex temporarily prevented TFM from using certain short trackage rights which TFM has over a portion of its route running from Celaya to Silao,
which is the site of a General Motors plant from where TFM transports finished vehicles to the border crossing at Nuevo Laredo. Ferromex was subsequently ordered by the court to resume giving us
access, and in October 2001, TFM filed a counterclaim against Ferromex relating to these actions.

In
March 2002, the Ministry of Transportation issued its ruling in response to TFM's request, establishing a rate to be charged for trackage rights using the criteria set forth in
the Mexican railroad services law and regulations. TFM is appealing the ruling and requesting a suspension of the effectiveness of the ruling pending resolution of its appeal. TFM cannot predict
whether it will ultimately prevail. TFM believes that even if the rates established in the ruling goes into effect and TFM and Ferromex begin using the long-distance trackage rights over
each other's rail line, this will not have a material adverse effect on TFM's results of operations. A separate ruling was issued confirming TFM's right to use the Celaya-Silao stretch of Ferromex
track.

In
December 2001, disputes arose between us and KCS resulting from a dividend declaration by Grupo TFM and a lease transaction between TFM and Mexrail involving the international
rail bridge and Laredo, Texas. KCS and KCSR initiated legal actions in the State of Delaware and in Mexico.

Preserving
our respective interpretations of the operative agreements in connection with our dispute, we and KCS reached an agreement to resolve the dispute, pursuant to which, among
other things, we and KCS sold our 51.0% and 49.0% equity interests in Mexrail to TFM for $32.6 million and $31.4 million, respectively. As a result, Mexrail became a consolidated
subsidiary of TFM and a restricted subsidiary under the respective indentures governing TFM's notes. We and KCS also agreed to discontinue the litigation in Delaware and in Mexico, and the dividend
declared by Grupo TFM was nullified in Mexico. Accordingly, the dividend paid to us and KCS has been returned to Grupo TFM. The dividend paid to FNM and Nafin has also been returned.

Financial
Structures Limited filed a claim against us in 2000 alleging that we and other entities agreed to enter into a sale leaseback transaction of our headquarters with Financial
Structures Limited and demanded performance by us of such transaction. The corresponding civil court issued a final judgment in our favor.

We
are a party to various other legal proceedings and administrative actions, all of which are of an ordinary or routine nature and incidental to our operations. Although it is
impossible to predict the

80

---

outcome
of any legal proceeding, in the opinion of our management, such proceedings and actions should not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our financial condition,
results of operations or liquidity. For information regarding our pending tax assessment, see Note 14 to our Financial Statements.

On
May 21, 2003, purported holders of approximately $16.9 million of 2003 notes filed a law suit in New York Supreme Court seeking to receive the principal amount and accrued
interest due on the 2003 notes purportedly held by the plaintiffs. We have not yet filed an answer to this lawsuit.

Dividends

At shareholders' meetings, shareholders have the ability, in their discretion, to approve dividends from time to time. At the ordinary shareholders' meeting held
on April 24, 1997, the shareholders of our predecessor, TMM, declared, but have not yet paid, a dividend equivalent to $0.17 per share, subject to not infringing upon restrictions established
by our outstanding debt obligations and to our availability of funds. At the shareholders' meeting that declared such dividend, the shareholders delegated to the Board of Directors the authority to
determine when the dividend may be paid.

B. Significant Changes

See Item 4 "Information on the Company," Section B "Business OverviewCertain Recent Developments" and "Business OverviewOther
Recent Developments."

ITEM 9. THE OFFER AND LISTING

A. Offer and listing details

Nature of the trading market

Since the initial issuance of the Series L Shares on August 9, 1991, the Series L Shares on the Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, S.A. de C.V. (the
"Mexican Stock Exchange" or the "Bolsa"). In June 1992, L Share ADSs, each representing one Series L Share, were issued by Citibank, N.A. (the "Depositary") as depositary in exchange for
Rule 144A ADSs and as part of an initial public offering, and commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). On September 13, 2002, we completed a reclassification of our
Series L Shares of stock as Series A Shares. The reclassification combined our two classes of stock into a single class by converting each share of our Series L Shares into one
share of our Series A Shares. The reclassification also eliminated the variable portion of our capital stock and we became a fixed capital corporation (sociedad
anónima). Following the reclassification, we had 56,963,137 Series A Shares outstanding. As a result of the elimination of the variable portion of our
capital stock, our registered name changed from Grupo TMM, S.A. de C.V. to Grupo TMM, S.A.

The
Series A Shares have been traded on the Bolsa since December 1980. In June 1992, CPO ADSs, each representing one CPO, each in turn representing financial
interest in one Series A Share, were issued by the Depositary, as depositary, as part of an initial public offering and commenced trading on the NYSE. As of May 31, 2003, of the
56,963,137 outstanding Series A Shares approximately 48,380,116 were held in the form of ADSs.

The
CPOs do not trade independently of the Series A Shares on the Bolsa. In the event that CPOs are sold to a Mexican national, the Series A Shares underlying such CPOs
will be delivered directly to the purchaser through S.D. Indeval, S.A. de C.V. ("Indeval"). Indeval is a privately owned central securities depositary that acts as a clearing house, depositary,
custodian, settlement, and transfer agent and registration institution for Mexican Stock Exchange transactions, eliminating the need for physical transfer of securities. Because
non-Mexican nationals cannot acquire direct interests in the Series A Shares, in the event that the purchaser of such Series A Shares is not a Mexican national, such
Series A Shares must be delivered in the form of CPOs through Indeval.

81

---

In
May 1993, we issued our 91/4% Notes and in November 1996, we issued our 10% Senior Notes. As a result of the consent solicitation, the interest rates on
these notes was increased to 91/2% and 101/4%, respectively. All issues of Notes are traded on the NYSE. See Item 5"Operating and Financial Review and
ProspectsCertain Indebtedness."

The
tables below set forth, for the periods indicated, the reported high and low prices on the Mexican Stock Exchange and on the NYSE for the Series A Shares and Series L
Shares and the CPO ADSs and L Share ADSs, respectively. Information of Company's Series L Shares in the Mexican Stock Exchange and in the New York stock exchange is reported until
September 12th, as per our share reclassification.

B. Memorandum and Articles of Association

The following is a summary of the provisions of theEstatutos Sociales(By-laws) of Grupo TMM and is
qualified in its entirety by the actual provisions within the bylaws themselves and applicable provisions of the General Law of Mercantile Companies and the Mexican Securities Market Laws. For a
description of the provisions of our By-laws relating to our Board of Directors, Executive Committee and statutory auditors, see "Item 6. Directors, Senior Management and Employees."

Organization and Register

We were incorporated in the United Mexican States as asociedad anonima, as evidenced by public deed number 26,225
dated August 14, 1987. We amended ourEstatutos Socialeson August 29, 2002 in connection with the reclassification of our Series A
and Series L Shares.

The
stated duration of the Company is [ninety-nine] years following the date of its incorporation, which term may be extended one or more times by
resolution of our shareholders adopted in an extraordinary shareholders' meeting.

Our
statement of corporate purposes authorizes us to engage in, among other things, the shipping and transportation services, the development, organization and management of all types of
companies or entities, the acquisition of shares or units of the capital stock of other companies or entities, and generally, to carry out and execute all acts, transactions, agreements and operations
of any nature as may be necessary or convenient in furtherance of our corporate purposes.

Board Of Directors

Our business and affairs are managed by the board of directors, which consists of not more than twenty or less than five persons, provides that at least
twenty-five percent of the directors are independent. Our directors are elected annually at the annual general meeting of shareholders. Each director (whenever elected) holds office until
the next annual general meeting of shareholders following his or her election and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal.

Any
director may resign at any time. Any director may be removed with or without cause at any time by an affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders entitled to vote at a general
ordinary shareholders' meeting. If any vacancies occur in the board of directors, or if the authorized number of directors is increased, the directors then in office may continue to act (provided that

an affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders entitled to vote at a general meeting of shareholders called for such purpose.

The
meetings of the board of directors may be ordinary or extraordinary. The ordinary meetings shall be held periodically on the dates and times designated by such board of directors,

this charter provision would be null and void.

Any
foreigner who acquires any interest or participation in our capital stock through CPOs will be considered a Mexican citizen insofar as Mexican law and we are concerned (except with
respect to the right to own Series A Shares) and will be deemed to understand and agree that such foreigner may not invoke the protection of his government in connection with his interest or
participation in the Company, under penalty of forfeiture of such interest or participation in favor of the United Mexican States.

We
contributed Series A Shares of our capital stock to the Master Neutral Investment Trust (Fideicomiso Maestro de Inversion
Neutra) (the "CPO Trust") established with a 30-year term by Nacional Financiera, S.N.C. (the "CPO Trustee") on November 24, 1989. The CPO Trustee authorized
the issuance of non-redeemable ordinary participation certificates (certificados de participacion ordinarios no amortizables) ("CPOs") that
correspond to our Series A Shares. One CPO may be issued for each of our Series A Shares contributed to the CPO Trust. CPOs constitute separate negotiable instruments different and apart
from our Series A Shares, and afford to their holders only economic rights attaching to Series A Shares. Consequently, holders of CPOs are not entitled to exercise any voting rights with
respect to the Series A Shares held in the CPO Trust. Such voting rights are exercisable only by the CPO Trustee, which is required by the terms of the CPO Trust to vote such Series A
Shares in the same manner as holders of a majority of the outstanding Series A Shares not held in the CPO Trust and voted at the relevant meeting.

87

---

The
Depositary must mail to all holders of CPO ADRs a notice containing the information (or a summary thereof) included in any notice of a meeting of holders of CPOs received by the
Depositary. Holders of CPO ADRs are entitled to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of voting rights attaching to the deposited CPOs, and upon receipt of such instructions the Depositary will
endeavor, insofar as practical and permitted under the provisions of or governing the CPOs, to vote or cause to be voted the CPOs underlying such holders' CPO ADRs in accordance with such
instructions. CPO ADR holders are not entitled to attend CPO General Meetings. ADR holders are entitled to instruct the Depositary as to the manner of voting the CPOs represented by CPO ADRs at any
CPO General Meeting or for purposes of exercising any individual rights of a CPO holder under Mexican law.

Prior
to its termination date, the CPO Trustee will sell Series A Shares held by the CPO Trust, and deliver the proceeds thereof to CPO holders in proportion to their respective
CPO holdings. Alternatively, we may establish a new trust to enable continued foreign equity participation in the Company. No assurance can be made that we will establish a new trust.

Mexican
and non-Mexican investors may hold CPOs without restrictions of any kind.

We
note that because CPOs are negotiable instruments separate and apart from Series A Shares of the Company, holders of CPOs do not qualify as shareholders, and may not exercise
any of the minority rights afforded by theLey General de Sociedades Mercantilesand Securities law (Ley del Mercado de
Valores) of the United Mexican States. In addition, due to the fact that by the terms of the CPO Trust, the CPO Trustee is required to systematically vote in the same manner as
that of the majority of holders of Series A Shares, rights of minority shareholders attaching to Series A Shares held by the CPO Trust may not be exercised against us or our directors.

Acquisition of Share Capital

The consent of the board of directors will be required for acquisitions that would result in any person acquiring 5% or more of our Series A Shares. If the
approved process is not complied with, the acquiror will not be entitled to vote the acquired Series A Shares. The approved process will apply only to direct acquisitions of Series A
Shares and not to CPOs and ADSs. In addition, the acquisition of Series A Shares by any Mexican national may also be subject to the applicable provisions of Mexican antitrust laws.

Limitation Of Officers' And Directors' Liability

In addition to voting for directors at the annual shareholder's meeting, shareholders are asked to vote upon the performance of management. Our vigilance officer
(Comisario), an officer elected by the shareholders each year, delivers a report on our financial statements and other issues related to management's performance. If the holders of a majority of the
votes entitled to be cast approve management's performance, all shareholders are deemed to have released the directors and officers from claims or liability to us or our shareholders arising out of
actions taken or any failure to take actions by any of them on our behalf during the prior fiscal year, with certain exceptions. Shareholders will likely fail in any suit brought in a Mexican court
with respect to the acts or omissions deemed to have been released. Officers and directors may not be released from any claims or liability for criminal acts, fraud, self-dealing or gross
negligence. If the shareholders do not approve management's performance, the vigilance officer's report may form the basis of any suit brought by the shareholders against our officers and directors.

Pursuant
to applicable law, we will indemnify any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative, by reason of the fact that such person, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was our director, officer or agent or any of our predecessors, or serves or
served any other enterprise as a director, officer or agent at our request or any of our predecessors. We are required to pay any expenses reasonably incurred by a director or officer in defending a
civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such

88

---

director
or officer to repay such amount if it ultimately is determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by us under applicable law. We may, by action of our board of directors,
provide for the payment of such expenses incurred by our employees and agents as it deems appropriate.

Liquidation Rights

Any liquidation of the company shall be carried out in the manner provided under the valid General Law of Mercantile Companies. The shareholders meeting, in the
act of agreeing to the dissolution, should establish the rules that, in addition to the legal provisions and the provisions provided herein, should dictate the actions of the liquidators.

Dividends

Dividends are declared by the shareholders. All holders of common stock (represented by shares, CPOs or CPO ADRs) will share equally on a per share basis in any
dividend declared by our shareholders.

Certain Voting Rights

Our only class of outstanding capital stock consists of Series A Shares. Series A Shares, when properly issued, are fully voting shares of capital
stock without par value.

Preemptive and Other Rights

In case of capital increase, except in the case of treasury shares, the holders of Series A Shares have the preemptive right to subscribe the new shares
issued as a result of a capital increase, in proportion to the number of shares owned by each of them.

C. Material Contracts

See Item 5B"Liquidity and Capital ResourcesIndebtedness."

D. Exchange Controls

There are currently no exchange controls in Mexico; however, Mexico has imposed foreign exchange controls in the past. Pursuant to the provisions of NAFTA, if
Mexico experiences serious balance of payment difficulties or the threat thereof in the future, Mexico would have the right to impose foreign exchange controls on investments made in Mexico, including
those made by U.S. and Canadian investors.

E. Taxation

General

The following summary describes the principal United States federal income and Mexican tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of our ADSs
(which are evidenced by ADRs) and our Notes by:



The
summary with respect to United States federal income taxes is based on the United States Internal Revenue Code, treasury regulations, including proposed regulations and temporary
regulations, promulgated under that code, rulings, official pronouncements and judicial decisions, all as in effect on the

89

---

date
of this annual report. The summary with respect to Mexican federal taxes is based on Mexico's income tax law and regulations applicable on the date of this annual report. All of these things are
subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, and to different interpretations. This summary does not address all of the tax consequences that may be applicable to holders of our ADSs and our
Notes.

For
purposes of this summary, a "U.S. holder" is any holder of any of our securities who or which is (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation,
partnership, or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, or any political subdivision thereof; (iii) an estate the income of which is includible in gross
income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of source; or (iv) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of
the trust and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust.

For
purposes of Mexican taxation, an individual is a resident of Mexico if he has established his home in Mexico, unless he has resided in another country for more than 183 days
in a year, whether consecutive or not, and can demonstrate that he has become a resident of that country for tax purposes or an individual of Mexican Nationality who is employee of any political
subdivision, even when by the features of his activities establishes abroad by a period of time higher than 183 days, whether consecutive or not. A legal entity is a resident of Mexico if it
has been incorporated under the laws of Mexico, or if it has located in Mexico its principal administration or the place of its effective management. If a legal entity or an individual is deemed to
have a permanent establishment in Mexico for Mexican federal tax purposes, all income attributable to such permanent establishment will be subject to Mexican federal taxes, in accordance with
applicable laws. A non-resident of Mexico is an individual or corporation that does not satisfy the requirements to be considered a resident of Mexico for Mexican federal tax purposes.

This
summary is not a complete analysis or listing of all potential tax considerations relevant to a decision to purchase, hold or dispose of ADSs or Notes and is not addressed to
certain types of holders subject to special treatment under United States federal income tax law, such as individual retirement and other tax-deferred accounts, dealers in securities or
currencies, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, persons holding our notes as part of a straddle, hedging, conversion or other integrated transaction, persons whose functional
currency is not the Dollar or
persons that own (actually or constructively under rules prescribed in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")) 10% or more of the voting shares of the Company.

The
discussion below does not address United States federal estate and gift tax considerations or the effect of any United States state or local tax law. You should consult your own tax
advisors concerning the applications of the United States federal income tax law to your particular situations as well as any tax consequences arising under the law of any state, local or foreign tax
jurisdiction.

The
description of the United States federal income and Mexican tax laws set forth below is based on the laws in force as of the date of this annual report and is subject to any changes
in applicable United States or Mexican tax laws. The governments of the United States and Mexico ratified an income tax treaty and a protocol (together the "Tax Treaty") which came into effect on
January 1, 1994. The Tax Treaty incorporates by reference the agreement between the two countries that was in force prior to 1994, which called for the exchange of tax information.

With
respect to the discussion of withholding tax set forth below, TMM assumes responsibility for withholding at the source.

Each
prospective holder of our ADSs and our Notes should consult his or her tax advisors with respect to the tax treatment applicable to that holder.

Equity

Mexican Tax Considerations

This summary of certain Mexican tax considerations relates only to non-resident U.S. holders of our Series A Share ADSs and Series A
Share CPO ADSs.

DividendsDividends, either in cash or in any other form, paid with respect to our, Series A Share ADSs and
Series A Share CPO ADSs to non-resident U.S. holders will not be subject to Mexican withholding or any other Mexican tax.

Capital GainsUnder Mexico's income tax law, capital gains arising from the sale or other disposition of our ADSs by
non-resident U.S. holders who are individuals or corporations will be exempt from Mexican taxation if the sale or disposition is executed on the Mexican Stock Exchange or through stock
markets in amply commercial locations of countries with which Mexico has entered into a treaty for avoidance double taxation, provided, that some conditions established in Section XXVI of
Article 109 of Mexican Income Tax Law are met.

This
exemption is not applicable to certain public offers of our Series A Shares ADSs and to transactions that are not executed on the Mexican Stock Exchange or through stock
markets in amply commercial locations of countries with which Mexico has entered into a treaty for avoidance double taxation, even if certain transactions may be considered by the CNBV to have been
executed on the Mexican Stock Exchange.

If
the foregoing conditions are not met and the sale or other disposition of our Series A Share ADSs is made by a non-resident U.S. holder on any other exchange, the
sale or disposition will be subject to a 25% Mexican income tax on the gross proceeds, unless a non-resident U.S. holder meets certain requirements and elects to be taxed at a rate of 34%
on the net gain realized on the sale, as determined pursuant to Mexican tax.

Under
the Tax Treaty, a non-resident U.S. holder entitled to claim the benefits under the Tax Treaty owning less than 25% of our capital stock for less than twelve months
will generally be exempt from Mexican taxation on any gain derived from the sale or other disposition of our Series A Shares.

Deposits
of CPOs in exchange for CPO ADSs and withdrawals of CPOs in exchange for CPO ADSs will not give rise to Mexican taxation.

Commissions
paid in brokerage transactions for the sale of our Series A Shares ADSs on the Mexican Stock Exchange are subject to a value added tax of 15%, unless residents in
Mexico for tax purposes render the commissions and such services are useful abroad.

Other
Mexican TaxesThere are no Mexican inheritance or succession taxes applicable to the ownership, transfer or disposition of our Series A Shares ADSs, or
Series A Share CPO ADSs. Gratuitous transfers of our Series A Shares ADSs may, in some circumstances, subject the recipient to Mexican federal income tax. There are no Mexican stamp,
issue, registration or similar taxes or duties
payable by non-resident U.S. holders of our Series A Shares ADSs, or Series A Share CPO ADSs.

United States Income Tax Considerations:

For United States federal income tax purposes, owners of ADSs generally will be treated as the owners of the underlying Series A Shares represented by the
ADSs.

DividendsDistributions paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax
purposes) with respect to our ADSs will be includible in the gross income of a U.S. holder as ordinary income when the distributions are received by the depositary and will not be eligible for the
dividends received deduction otherwise allowable to U.S. holders that are corporations. To the extent that a distribution exceeds earnings and profits, it will be treated first as a return of the U.S.

91

---

holder's
tax basis to the extent of such tax basis, and then as gain from the sale or disposition of a capital asset. A U.S. holder must include in gross income as ordinary income the gross amount of
the dividends, including any Mexican tax withheld therefrom, without regard to whether any portion of such tax may be refunded to the U.S. holder by the Mexican tax authorities. The amount of any
dividend paid in Pesos will equal the U.S. dollar value of the Pesos received, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the distribution is includible in income, regardless
of whether the Pesos are converted into U.S. dollars. In addition, U.S. holders may recognize a foreign currency gain or loss (generally treated as an ordinary gain or loss) upon the disposition of
the Pesos measured by the difference between such U.S. dollar value and the amount realized on the disposition. Distributions generally will constitute foreign source "passive income" (or, in the case
of some holders, "financial services income") for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

New
tax legislation signed into law on May 28, 2003, provides for a maximum 15% U.S. tax rate on the dividend income of an individual U.S. holder with respect to dividends paid by
a domestic corporation or "qualified foreign corporation." A qualified foreign corporation generally includes a foreign corporation if (i) its shares (or, according to the legislative history
of the new legislation, its ADSs) are readily tradable on an established securities market in the U.S. or (ii) it is eligible for benefits under a comprehensive US income tax treaty. The ADSs
are traded on the New York Stock Exchange. As a result, we believe we should be treated as a qualified foreign corporation and, therefore, dividends paid to an individual U.S. holder with respect to
the ADSs should be taxed at a maximum rate of 15%. The maximum 15% tax rate is effective with respect to dividends included in income during the period beginning on or after January 1, 2003,
and ending December 31, 2008.

Subject
to certain conditions and limitations, Mexican tax withheld, if any, from dividend payments on ADSs will be treated as foreign income tax that may be deductible from taxable
income or credited
against a U.S. holder's U.S. federal income tax liability. However, the Mexican tax may be deducted only if the U.S. holder does not claim a credit for any Mexican or other foreign taxes paid or
accrued in that year.

Capital GainsIn general, upon the sale or other disposition of ADSs, a U.S. holder generally will recognize a gain or loss
equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale or disposition (if the amount realized is denominated in a foreign currency then its U.S. dollar equivalent, determined at the spot rate
on the date of disposition) and the U.S. holder's adjusted tax basis in the ADSs (in U.S. dollars). The gain or loss will be treated as a capital gain or loss if the ADSs were held as a capital asset
and will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the ADSs have been held for more than one year on the date of the sale or other disposition. Under current law, net capital gains of
individuals are, under certain circumstances, taxed at lower rates than items of ordinary income. With respect to sales occurring on or after May 6, 2003, but before January 1, 2009, the
maximum long-term capital gain tax rate for an individual U.S. Holder is 15%.    For sales occurring before May 6, 2003, or after December 31, 2008, under current
law the maximum long-term capital gain rate for an individual U.S. Holder is 20%. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitation. A gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder
on a sale or other disposition of ADSs generally will be treated as a gain or loss from sources within the United States for United States federal income tax purposes.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

If we are, or were in the future to become, a "passive foreign investment company" for United States federal income tax purposes, United States Holders that own
ADS's or our stock generally will be subject to special United States tax rules that would differ in certain respects from the tax treatment described above. We do not believe that we are currently a
passive foreign investment company for United States federal income tax purposes. However, passive foreign investment company status is determined annually based on the composition of our assets and
income from time to time. As a result, our passive foreign investment company status may change. In general, if 50% or more of our assets are "passive assets," or 75% or more of our income is "passive
income" we would be a passive foreign investment company.

92

---

Passive
assets generally include any interest in another corporation in which we own less than a 25% interest (by value). Thus, a reduction in our ownership interest in TFM, either as a result of our
sale of shares or through dilution due to the sale of shares in TFM or any of our subsidiaries through which we own shares, could result in our interest in TFM being considered a passive asset. If
this were to occur, we likely would become a passive foreign investment company.

In
general, if we are classified as a PFIC, United States Holders will be subject to a special tax at ordinary income tax rates on "excess distributions," including certain distributions
by us with respect to our Series A Shares that you receive as an ADS holder and gain that holders recognize on the sale of ADSs. The amount of income tax on any excess distributions will be
increased by an interest charge to
compensate for tax deferral, calculated as if the excess distributions were earned ratably over the period a holder held the ADSs. With respect to ADSs, a U.S. holder can avoid the unfavorable rules
described in the preceding paragraph by electing to mark their ADSs to market. The mark-to-market election is only available with respect to stock that is regularly traded on a
qualified exchange. Under current law, the mark-to-market election may be available to you because the ADSs will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange, which constitutes a
qualified exchange, although there can be no assurance that the ADSs will be regularly traded.

If
a U.S. holder makes this mark-to-market election, such holder will be required in any year in which we are a PFIC to include as ordinary income the excess of
the fair market value of its ADSs at year-end over its basis in those ADSs. In addition, any gain a U.S. holder recognizes upon the sale of its ADSs will be taxed as ordinary income in the
year of sale. Alternatively, if we provide the necessary information, a U.S. holder may elect to treat its ADSs as an interest in a "qualified electing fund." The "QEF election" is available only if
we comply with applicable information reporting requirements, and we have not yet determined whether we can or will do so. If a U.S. holder makes this "QEF election," such holder will be required to
include in income its proportionate share of our income and net capital gain in years in which we were a PFIC, but any gain that such holder subsequently recognizes upon the sale of its ADSs generally
will be taxed as capital gain.

Holders
should consult their own tax advisor regarding the adverse tax consequences of owning equity interests in a passive foreign investment company.

Debt

Mexican Tax Considerations

This summary of certain Mexican tax considerations relates only to non-resident U.S. holders of our Notes.

InterestUnder Mexico's income tax law, payments of interest with respect to each of our series of Notes to
non-resident U.S. holders (including deemed interest in accordance with Mexico's income tax law) will be subject to Mexican withholding tax at a rate of 4.9%, if, as expected, the
following requirements are met with respect to the relevant series of our Notes:



93

---



If
the above-mentioned requirements are not met, the Mexican withholding tax will be 10% and in certain cases 34%, unless the Tax Treaty applies.

The
Ministry of Finance and Public Credit issued the rule 3.25.15 which contains the information requirements for the application of the 4.9% withholding tax rate which is in
force until March 31st, 2004. We expect that this rule will be extended or that a substantially similar successor of such rule will be published; however we can not assure you
that this will happen. In any case, we expect to satisfy the information requirements, and accordingly, expect that the 4.9% withholding tax rate will apply.

Under
the Tax Treaty, the Mexican withholding tax rate applicable to interest payments made to non-resident U.S. holders that are eligible for benefits under the Tax Treaty
will be limited to either:



As
of the date of this annual report, the Tax Treaty is not expected to have any material effect on the Mexican tax consequences described herein.

Payments
of interest on our Notes to non-Mexican pension and retirement funds will be exempt from Mexican withholding tax provided that:



PrincipalUnder Mexico's income tax law, principal paid by us to a non-resident U.S. holder of our Notes is not
subject to Mexican withholding tax.

Additional AmountsPursuant to the applicable Indenture, but subject to certain exceptions and limitations, all payments on
our Notes will be made to U.S. holders free and clear of any withholding taxes imposed by Mexico. We will furnish to the Trustee the official receipts (or a
certified copy of the official receipts) evidencing the payment of Mexican withholding taxes by us. Copies of such receipts will be made available to holders upon request.

Capital GainsThe sale or other disposition of our Notes by a non-resident U.S. holder will not be subject to
Mexican taxation.

Other Mexican TaxesThere are no Mexican estate, inheritance, succession, or gift taxes generally applicable to the
acquisition, ownership, or disposition of our Notes by non-resident U.S. holders. There are no Mexican stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes or duties payable by
non-resident U.S. holders of our Notes.

United States Income Tax Considerations:

InterestThe gross amount of interest (including Additional Amounts paid in respect of Mexican
withholding taxes, as discussed above) accrued or received in respect of the Notes generally will be includible in the gross income of a U.S. holder in accordance with their regular method of tax
accounting

94

---

and
original issue discount, if any, will be included on a yield to maturity basis. Such income generally will be treated as foreign source income for United States federal income tax purposes. In
general, a U.S. holder may elect to claim, subject to certain limitations, either a deduction or a credit in computing its United States federal income tax liability for Mexican taxes withheld from
interest and Additional Amounts paid on the Notes. Interest on our notes generally will constitute foreign source "passive income" (or, in the case of some holders, "financial services income") for
U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.

Capital GainsA U.S. holder that owns the Notes as capital assets will recognize gain or loss for United States federal income
tax purposes upon a sale or other disposition of the Notes in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. holder's tax basis in the Notes. Such gain or loss will be
capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if, at the time of such sale or other disposition, the Notes have been held for more than 12 months; or
short-term capital gain or loss if at such time the Notes have been held for not more than 12 months. Under current law, net capital gains of individuals are, under certain
circumstances, taxed at lower rates than items of ordinary income. With respect to sales occurring on or after May 6, 2003, but before January 1, 2009, the maximum long-term
capital gain tax rate for an individual U.S. Holder is 15%. For sales occurring before May 6, 2003, or after December 31, 2008, under current law the maximum long-term
capital gain rate for an individual U.S. Holder is 20%. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder upon the sale or other disposition
of the Notes generally will be treated as gain or loss from sources within the United States for United States federal income tax purposes.

Information Reporting And Backup Withholding

Amounts paid in respect of our Notes or ADSs and the proceeds from the sale, exchange, or redemption of our Notes or ADSs may be reported to the United States
Internal Revenue Service and a backup withholding tax may apply to such amounts unless the holder (i) is a domestic corporation (which may be required to establish its exemption by providing
its status on U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9), (ii) in the case of a U.S. holder other than a corporation, provides an accurate taxpayer identification in the manner
required by applicable law, (iii) in the case of a non-U.S. Holder, provides a properly executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN; or other successor
form, or otherwise, (iv) establishes a basis for exemption. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. holder generally will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. holder's
United States federal income tax liability.

ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risks

A majority of the company's revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, occasionally the company uses currency derivatives to manage the
alternating levels of exposure it has in foreign currencies. These derivatives would allow the company to offset an increase in operating and /or administrative expenses arising from foreign currency
appreciation or depreciation against the U.S. dollar, as well as changes in the level of inflation in Mexico, which has a substantial impact on its Mexican peso denominated expenses.

In
the past the company has entered into, and in the future may, from time to time, enter into currency derivatives denominated in Mexican pesos or other relevant currencies. At all
times, the objective of the company when using these derivatives is to manage specific risks and exposures, and not to trade such instruments for profit or loss.

All
of the company's indebtedness is denominated in U.S. dollars, and most of this debt is fixed-rate.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

The table below provides information about the company's debt obligations. For debt obligations, the table represents principal cash flows and related weighted
average interest rates by expected maturity dates. The information is presented in thousands of U.S. dollars, which is the company's reporting currency. During 2002, the company has not entered into
any interest rate-hedging transactions.

Derivatives Exposure

As of December 31, 2002, we did not have any outstanding derivative instrument, although in the past we have entered into and in the future may, from time
to time, enter into derivatives contracts to hedge our exposure to exchange rates and interest rates. However, as of December 31, 2002, TFM had currency derivatives and derivatives swap
contracts regarding their diesel consumption exposure.

Exchange Rate Sensitivity

The table below provides information about our currency derivative transactions by functional currency and presents such information in dollar equivalents. The
table summarizes information on instruments and transactions that are sensitive to foreign currency exchange rates, including foreign currency forward contracts. For these foreign currency contracts,
the table presents the notional amounts

and
weighted average strike prices by contractual maturity dates. These notional amounts are generally used to calculate the payments to be exchanged under the contract.

Commodity Price Sensitivity

The company holds an inventory of goods, and specifically diesel fuel, which could be subject to price changes in the commodities markets. Although the company
purchases its diesel fuel and ship bunker fuel on a spot basis inside of Mexico, these purchases are exposed to changes in the international energy commodity prices. In the past, the company has
entered into diesel fuel and other energy commodity derivatives to manage these changes. As of December 31, 2002, TFM had derivatives swap contracts regarding this exposure.

PART II

ITEM 13. DEFAULTS, DIVIDEND ARREARAGES AND DELINQUENCIES

The 2003 Notes matured on May 15, 2003 and we have not repaid the principal amount to date. As a result, we are in default under the terms of the 2003
notes, and such default has resulted in a cross-default under our 2006 notes. We also did not make the interest payments on the 2003 notes and the 2006 notes that were due on May 15, 2003. The
principal amounts owed on the 2003 notes and 2006 notes, respectively, are $176,875,000 and $200,000,000. As of May 31, 2003, $9.1 million of interest has accrued and is payable on the
2003 notes; as of May 31, 2003, $11.1 million of interest has accrued and is payable on the 2006 notes.

In
addition, as of May 31, 2003, there was approximately $49.7 million of certificates outstanding that are issued by the trust established under the Receivables
Securitization Facility. The obligations represented by the certificates are currently in default as a result of the default under the 2003 notes. To date, however, neither the trustee nor the holders
of certificates has provided notice of an event of default rapid amortization event, although they may do so at any time. We are required to repurchase the certificates on June 30, 2003.

ITEM 14. MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE OF PROCEEDS

See Item 4 "Information on the Company," Section B "Business OverviewReclassification of Series A and Series L Shares."

ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Grupo TMM's Chief Executive Officer (Director General) and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of Grupo TMM's disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-14(c)) within 90 days of the date of this report, have concluded that, as of such date, Grupo TMM's disclosure controls and
procedures were effective to ensure that material information relating to Grupo TMM and its consolidated subsidiary was made known to them by others
within Grupo TMM and its consolidated subsidiary, particularly during the period in which this annual report on Form 20-F was being prepared.

There
were no significant changes in Grupo TMM's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date Grupo TMM's Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial and Administrative Officer completed their evaluation, nor were there any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in Grupo TMM's internal controls requiring
corrective actions.

On
February 27, 2002, Grupo and Kansas City Southern ("KCS") announced that they had agreed to sell Mexrail, Inc. ("Mexrail") and its wholly owned subsidiary, The
Tex-Mex Railway, to TFM, S. A. de C. V. ("TFM") for an aggregate price of $64 million ($32.6 million to Grupo and $31.4 million to KCS). The sale was completed on
March 27, 2002 resulting in a gain on dilution for Grupo amounting to $8.1 million, and is recorded in minority interest in the consolidated statement of income. As a result, Mexrail,
with its wholly owned subsidiary, The Tex-Mex Railway, became wholly owned subsidiaries of TFM. TFM now controls the operation and dispatching of the entire international rail bridge of
Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas and Laredo, Texas.

Additionally,
on July 29, 2002, TFM purchased the 24.6% non-voting interest in Grupo Transportacion Ferroviaria Mexicana ("Grupo TFM"), previously held by the Mexican
Government (the "Government") for an aggregate price of $256.1 million. The payment for the call option shares was financed through (1) a portion ($162,575) of the proceeds of the
issuance of $180,000 of debt securities by TFM (See Note 7) and approximately $93.5 million was applied against note receivables from the Government.

Grupo
TFM is a non-operating holding company whose most important operations and assets are the investment in TFM. TFM was incorporated by the Government in November, 1996
under the privatization of the railway system.

The
railway system for the north east of the country (the "TFM Route") is comprised of approximately 2,641 (excluding the 20 miles of the Griega-Mariscala stretch, see Note 4)
miles of track which form a strategically link between Mexico and the North American Free Trade Agreement corridor. The TFM Route directly links Mexico City and Monterrey (as well as
Guadalajara through trackage rights) with the ports of Lázaro Cárdenas, Veracruz and Tampico, and the Mexican/United States border crossings of Nuevo Laredo,
TamaulipasLaredo, Texas and Matamoros, TamaulipasBrownsville, Texas.

Merger

In December 2001, the Boards of Directors of Transportación Marítima Mexicana ("TMM") and Grupo unanimously approved the
corporate reorganization and merger, in which TMM was merged with and into Grupo. Each holder of TMM stock, after the merger, continued to own, as a shareholder of Grupo, the same relative economic
interest in Grupo as it owned in TMM. As a result of this merger, the capital stock and the retained earnings of Grupo increased by $65,585 and $67,369, respectively. Resulting from the issuance of
shares to the previous minority shareholders of TMM, who subsequent to the merger, became shareholders of Grupo (See Note 12).

In
preparation for the merger, the shareholders of Grupo approved the split-up of Grupo into two companies, Grupo and a newly formed corporation, Promotora Servia, S.A. de
C.V. ("Promotora Servia"). Under the terms of the split-up, Grupo transferred all of its assets, rights and privileges (other than its interest in TMM) and all of its liabilities to
Promotora Servia.

The
terms of the reorganization are set forth in the merger agreement signed on December 3, 2001 by and between TMM and Grupo. The Merger Agreement provided for the merger of TMM
with and into Grupo, with Grupo, the surviving company. Under the terms of the merger agreement, all of the assets, privileges and rights, and all of the liabilities of TMM were transferred to Grupo
upon the effectiveness of the merger on December 26, 2001.

Since
the above corporate reorganization and merger was a transaction between entities under common control, the transaction, for financial reporting purposes, has been accounted for on
a historical cost basis in a manner similar to a pooling of interest.

The
merger is also part of a broader Company-wide restructuring plan launched by Grupo's management in 1998 with the strategic objectives of (i) divesting
under-performing businesses and continuing the expansion of historically higher-margin businesses, (ii) continuing the development of Grupo as the largest Mexican provider of an integrated
array of transportation and logistics services, and (iii) streamlining Grupo's corporate structure to realize certain financial and corporate governance efficiencies.

The
operations that were not corresponding to the new structure and operation of the Company and which were spun-off in conjunction with the merger, are presented as
discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. See Note 2b.

Going concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern as discussed in Notes 7, 9 and 10
to the consolidated financial statements, the Company's outstanding obligations, obligations for sale of receivables and convertible notes amounting to $176,875, $56,276 and $13,295 will be or become
due on May 15, 2003, on April 15, 2003 and on May 2, 2003, respectively. The Company is currently negotiating with its creditors the terms and conditions of its obligations.
During the year ended December 31, 2002, Grupo incurred a net loss of $42,609 and at December 31, 2002 had an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $102,114. These factors
raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in

F-10

regard
to these matters are described in Note 17. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 2RESTRUCTURING AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

a.     Restructuring

Port business

In October 2000, Grupo sold to SSA International Inc. ("SSA") 35.2% of its investment in Operadora Portuaria TMM, S.A. de C.V., for
US$41.3 million as a part of the restructuring of the port business. This transaction generated a gain of $24,944, which is shown in the statement of income under other income
(expenses)Net.

On
June 21, 2001, Grupo and SSA, a strategic partner, signed an addendum to the master contract and signed a stockholders' agreement to take all the necessary steps to consolidate
the operations and assets of Grupo's Ports Division into an organized corporation denominated TMMPyT, in which Grupo would hold an equity interest of 51%, and SSA the remaining 49%.

b.     Discontinued operations

At
the end of 1999, Grupo agreed to sell its 50% equity interest in Americana Ships, Ltd ("ASL") to CP Ships Holdings, Inc. ("CP Ships") for
$65 million. The operation was concluded in the first quarter of 2000. The transfer of rights and benefits took effect as of January 1, 2000. This transaction was presented as a
discontinued operation in the consolidated financial statements.

The
final result of this operation was a loss of $134,709, of which $129,674 was recorded in 1999 and $5,035 in 2000; the latter figure represents the amount by which the definitive loss
on the sale of this segment exceeded the estimated amount in 1999.

Below
are the income, expenses and results of the above-mentioned discontinued operations as well as those being transferred to Promotora Servia as described in Note 1 for the
year ended December 31, 2000:

Administrative service agreement with Promotora Servia

In connection with the restructuring described in Note 1, TMM and Grupo entered into an agreement to terminate the management services agreement between
TMM and Grupo that had been in effect since January 15, 1991. Under this agreement, TMM was obligated to pay Grupo, 1% of the TMM's net consolidated revenues, excluding TFM's revenues. The
termination agreement, dated October 11, 2001 provides for the payment by TMM to Grupo of $17.5 million on or before September 7, 2002. This contract

was
renewed and the new payment day must be on April 30, 2003. This agreement was transferred to Promotora Servia, the company arising from the Grupo's spin-off. (See Notes 1 and
11).

Additionally,
on December 14, 2001 TMM and Grupo signed an agreement for the collection rights derived from the benefits of the tax consolidation amounting to $9.4 million
which is payable to Promotora Servia at latest on April 30, 2003. (See Notes 1 and 11).

NOTE 3SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES:

Grupo and subsidiaries prepare their financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standards ("IAS") expressed in US dollars, the currency in
which most transactions and a significant portion of their assets and liabilities arose and/or are denominated. The Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission approved this method in 1985. The
initial effect of conversion to US dollar as the functional currency is shown as a debit of $17,757 in the statement of changes in stockholders' equity of Grupo.

The
IAS differ in certain material respect from those under United States of America Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). (See Note 18).

Grupo
and subsidiaries are also required to keep books and records in Mexican pesos for tax purposes.

The
most significant accounting policies are described below:

The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Grupo and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Grupo consolidates the
companies in which it holds 51% or more direct or indirect participation and/or has control.

Monetary
assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are translated into US dollars using current exchange rates. Differences arising from fluctuations in exchange rates
between the dates on which transactions are entered into and those on which they are settled, or the balance sheet date, are applied to income. Non-monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in other currencies are translated into US dollars at the historical rate of exchange in effect on the date they are entered into. The capital stock and minority interest are translated at
the historical exchange rate. Results of
operations are mainly translated at the monthly average exchange rates. Depreciation and amortization of non-monetary assets are translated at the historical exchange rate.

c.Cash and cash equivalents

Cash
and cash equivalents represent highly liquid interest-bearing deposits and investments with and original maturity of less than three months and are stated at cost plus interest
earned.

d.Restricted cash

It
represents the amount required to guarantee the quarterly payments according to the agreements of obligations for sale of receivables. (See Note 9).

e.Materials and supplies

Materials
and supplies consist mainly of fuel and items for maintenance of property and equipment, are valued at the lower of the average cost or market.

F-12

---



f.Concession rights and related assets

Costs
incurred by Grupo TFM to acquire the concession rights and related assets were capitalized and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of
the related assets and rights acquired (see Note 4). The purchase price to acquire the concession rights and related assets was allocated to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities
assumed in connection with the privatization process (see Note 4) based on their estimated fair value.

The
assets acquired and liabilities assumed include:



Other
concession rights (mainly those related with partial assignment agreements of ports) correspond to payments made for the rights to operate them, they are stated at cost, and are
amortized over the terms specified in the agreements.

g.Property, machinery and equipment

TFM's
machinery and equipment acquired through the asset purchase agreement were initially recorded at their estimated fair value. Subsequent acquisitions are stated at cost.
Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the respective fixed assets. (See Note 5).

The
other property, machinery and equipment are stated at construction or acquisition cost. Acquisitions through capital leases or charter arrangements with an obligation to purchase are
capitalized based on the present value of future minimum payments, recognizing the related liability (see Note 16). The construction cost of vessels is determined by adding the accrued interest
during the construction period to the agreed price. Depreciation of vessels, containers and tractor trucks is computed using the straight-line method based on the useful lives of the
assets net of the estimated salvage value. Depreciation of other fixed assets is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Recurring
maintenance is expensed as incurred, whereas the reconstruction of locomotives and major repairs on vessels are amortized over the period that benefits are expected to be
derived (eight years for locomotives and two to three years for vessels).

h.Deferred costs

These
represent deferred costs that benefit a period of more than one year. Such costs are amortized over a period ranging from 3 to 12 years using the straight-line
method (see Note 6). They also include fees

F-13

---

and
other related expenses paid by the Company to obtain long-term debt. These costs are amortized by the effective-interest method during the outstanding period of such
long-term debt.

i.Equity investments

Equity
investments of less than 20% are valued at cost. Equity investments in associated companies are valued using the equity method. The carrying value of equity investments are
periodically reviewed for impairment.

j.Deferred income tax

Deferred
income tax is determined under the full liability method.

Under
this method, the Company is required to establish a provision for deferred income taxes on the tax indexation of certain non-current assets and, in relation to an
acquisition, on the difference between the acquisition cost of the net assets acquired and their tax base.

k.Derivative financial instruments

The
Company enters into financial and commodity derivative instruments as a part of its risk management program including currency exchange contracts, interest rate arrangements, and
U.S. based fuel futures. These contracts are marked to market and accordingly gains and losses related to such transactions are recognized in results of operations on a monthly basis. (See
Note 8).

l.Seniority premiums

Pension
and seniority premium costs are recognized based on actuarial computations as services are rendered. (See Note 15).

Other
compensation based on length of service to which employees may be entitled in the event of dismissal or death, in accordance with the Mexican Federal Labor Law, are charged to
income in the year in which they become payable.

m.Foreign currency position

At
December 31, 2001 and 2002, the Company had monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the US dollar, determined at the interbank exchange rate, as
follows:

December 31,2001

At
December 31, 2001 and 2002 the exchange rate was Ps9.18 and Ps10.45 per US dollar, respectively. On March 14, 2003, date of issuance of the audited consolidated
financial statements, the exchange rate was Ps10.81 per US dollar.

n.Recognition of revenues and costs

Voyage
revenues and costs are recognized in income in the period in which the voyage is completed. Revenues and costs associated with voyages in process are deferred and recognized at
the conclusion of the voyage.

Revenues
and costs associated with trucking transportation services and other non-maritime transactions are recognized at the time the services are rendered.

Railroad
revenue is recognized proportionally as a shipment moves from origin to destination.

o.Intangible assets and long-lived assets

The
carrying value of intangible assets and long-lived assets are periodically reviewed by the Company and impairments are recognized when the expected future operating cash
flows undiscounted and without interest charges derived from such intangible assets and long-lived assets are less than their carrying value.

p.Minority interest

Represents
the percentage of interest of joint ventures in the subsidiaries of Grupo.

q.Net income per share

Net
income per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for the years ended
December 31, 2000, 2001 and 2002 was 17,441,590, 18,693,635 and 56,963,137, respectively. The weighted average number of shares has been retroactively adjusted for 15.06 for one reverse stock
split that occurred on October 31, 2001. (See Note 12).

r.Concentration of risk

An
important source of the Company's revenues are generated by the automotive industry, which is made up of a relatively small number of customers. Not one single client represents
individually more than 10% of the total revenues.

s.Use of estimates

The
preparation of financial statements requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that could affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

t.Comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensive
income (loss) includes certain changes to stockholder' equity not affecting net income (loss) and not related to capital payments, dividend payments or similar transactions
with the shareholders. The comprehensive income (loss) for the Company, for all periods presented, is equal to the net income (loss), as there are no other items of comprehensive income (loss), except
for the initial accumulated translation loss recorded in stockholders' equity.

u.Reclassifications

Certain
figures of the years 2000 and 2001 were reclassified according to 2002 figures.

NOTE 4CONCESSION RIGHTS AND RELATED ASSETS:

Under the terms of TFM's concession, TFM has the right to use and the obligation to maintain the right of way, track structure, buildings and related maintenance
facilities. Ownership of such property and fixtures, however, has been retained by the Government.

Additionally,
the partial assignment agreements to operate ports, establish that the Company has the right to operate and obligation to maintain the corresponding port facilities. At the
end of the agreements, the assets will be transferred to the Government.

Thus,
the TFM concession rights and the partial assignment agreements establish rights in favor of the Government. (See Note 16).

Concession
rights and related assets are summarized below:

On
February 9, 2001, the Ministry of Communications and Transport ("SCT") issued Statement 4.123. Under this statement, the SCT and TFM agreed to transfer a line of the
two-way Griega-Mariscala stretch to the Government in order to be included in the North Pacific concession. In return for this stretch, TFM recorded a receivable from the Government in the
amount of $85,226,
which was applied against the purchase price of the 24.6% Grupo TFM?s capital stock owned indirectly by the Government through Ferrocarriles Nacionales de México ("FNM") and
Nacional Financiera, S.N.C. During 2001, the Company recognized a net gain related with this transaction of approximately $60,744, which was credited to other income (expenses)Net in the
consolidated statement of income.

Government
payment was restated in accordance with an appraisal performed by the "Comisión de Avalúos de Bienes Nacionales", until the payment date.

On
February 12, 2001, the SCT modified the concession title granted to TFM to the transfer of the Griega-Mariscala stretch described above, and authorized the dismantling of the
catenary running over the route between Huehuetoca State of Mexico and the City of Querétaro.

NOTE 8FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

Interest rate agreements

During the years ended December 31, 2000 and 2001, the Company entered into various types of interest rate contracts in managing its interest rate risk.
The Company used interest rates swaps to reduce the potential impact of increases in its interest rates under its long-term debt described in Note 7 and on rental payments for the
leasing of the vessels "Tepozteco II" and "Aya II".

F-22

---

As
a condition to certain debt which was paid in 2000, the Company entered into an interest rate swap, which expired on March 10, 2000. At the expiration date, the Company
recognized an additional cost of approximately $200. With respect to the vessels described above, the Company has contracted 5.50% annual LIBOR interest rate swaps which matured on March 30,
2001. The benefit derived from these operations was $151 and $12 in 2000 and 2001, respectively.

Fuel swap contracts

TFM seeks to assure itself of more predictable fuel expenses through U.S. fuel swap contracts. Hedge positions are also closely monitored to ensure that they do
not exceed actual fuel requirements in any period.

As
of December 31, 2002 TFM had ten swap contracts outstanding for 5,000,083 gallons of fuel which expired on January and February 2003. The realized gain was $1,548 and
TFM has only recorded at December 31, 2002 benefit of $1,009.

Foreign exchange contracts

The purpose of the Company's foreign exchange contracts is to limit the risks arising from its non-US dollar denominated monetary assets and
liabilities.

The
nature and quantity of these transactions is determined by Management of the Company based upon on net asset exposure and market conditions.

As
of December 31, 2001, TFM had eight Mexican peso call options outstanding in the notional amount of $10 million each one, based on the average exchange rate of Ps9.973
per dollar. These options expired during 2002.

As
of December 31, 2002, the Company had one Mexican peso call option outstanding in the notional amount of $1.7 million, based on the average exchange rate of Ps11.0 per
dollar. This option will expire on May 29, 2003.

Additionally,
as of December 31, 2002, the Company had one forward contract outstanding in the notional amount of $10 million, based on the exchange rate of Ps9.769 per
dollar. This forward contract expired on February 13, 2003.

Fair value of financial instruments

The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However,
considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value.

The
fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate carrying values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments.

F-23

---

The
fair value of the Company's bank loans and other obligations is estimated based on the quoted market prices or on the rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining
maturities at the end of each year. Debt bearing interest at variable rates is generally representative of the rates that are currently available to the Company at December 31, 2002 for the
issuance of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities and therefore the carrying values of these obligations are reasonable estimate of their fair value.

A
summary of the estimated fair values of the Company's bank loans and other obligations is shown below:

one class of 17,440,890 new Series "B" common shares, ordinary and without par value.

At
the Extraordinary Stockholders' Meetings held on December 7, 2001, the Grupo's stockholders agreed to:

Transfer
of 17,440,890 shares Series "B" to the Series "A" shares.

Increase
the capital stock by $33,411 through the issuance of 4,412,914 new Series "A" shares.

premiums and retirement plan benefits ("pension benefits") obligations are recorded as cost for the years in which the services are rendered, by recording a provision against
which contributions are made to an irrevocable trust fund. Both items are based on actuarial calculations using the projected unit credit method. Pension benefits are based mainly on years of service,
age and salary upon retirement.

Seniority
premiums and pension benefits charged to income include the amortization of past service costs over the average remaining working lifetime of employees.

b. Contingencies

On
September 25, 2002 the Mexican Magistrates Court of the First District (the "Federal Court"), issued its judgment in favor of TFM on the VAT claim which was been pending in the
Mexican Courts since 1997. By a unanimous decision, a three-judge panel of the Federal Court vacated a prior judgment of the Mexican Fiscal Court (Tribunal Federal de Justicia Fiscal y Administrativa)
and remanded the case to the Mexican Fiscal Court with specific instructions to enter a new decision consistent with the guidance provided by the Federal Court's ruling. The Federal Court's ruling
requires the fiscal authorities to issue the VAT credit certificate only in the name of TFM. On December 6, 2002 the upper chamber of the Mexican Fiscal Court has issued a ruling denying TFM's
right to receive a value added tax refund from the Mexican Federal Government. On January 8, 2003, TFM was officially notified of the new judgment of the Fiscal Court and on January 29,
2003, TFM filed an appropriate appeal. TFM is considering filing an additional complaint against the fiscal courts new judgment, and in both instances believes that it will prevail. In the event TFM
prevail, a third party who can establish that its rights have been adversely and improperly affected by the new ruling may seek to bring a claim, in a different proceeding, against TFM. However, TFM
does not believe that any third party's rights would be improperly affected and believes that it would prevail in any such action.

NOTE 17SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED):

On April 21, 2003, the Company entered into an Acquisition Agreement with KCS to sell its entire interest in Grupo TFM ("the TFM Sale"). Under the agreement, KCS
will acquire the interest in Grupo TFM for $200 million in cash and 18,000,000 shares of common stock of KCS. KCS has the right to elect to pay up to $80 million of the cash portion of
the purchase price by delivering shares of KCS common stock valued for that purpose at $12.50 per share. In addition, the Company will have the right to receive an additional amount of up to
$175 million in cash ($180 million if KCS elects to defer a portion of the payment) in the event that the pending VAT claim against the Mexican Government by TFM is successfully resolved
and the amount received is greater than the purchase price of the "put" rights for the TFM shares held by the Mexican government. Upon completion of the TFM Sale, KCS will assume the company's
obligations to make any payment upon the exercise by the Mexican Government of its "put" rights for the 20% interest it holds in TFM and will indemnify the Company against any obligation or liability
relating to the exercise by the Mexican Government of the put rights. Completion of the TFM Sale is subject to approval by the stockholders of KCS and Grupo TMM, receipt of certain governmental
approvals in the United States and Mexico and other customary conditions. The Company currently expect that the sale will be completed in the third quarter of 2003. There is no assurance that the
process required to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals will not delay the closing of the TFM Sale or that the TFM Sale will occur.

On
May 9, 2003, TFM sold its 51% interest in Mexrail and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Tex-Mex Railway Company, to KCS for $32.6 million. The Mexrail stock sold will remain in
an independent voting trust pending approval of the transaction by the U.S. Surface Transportation Board. Within two years of the date of this agreement, TFM shall retain the right to repurchase all
of the shares from KCS at any time for an amount equal to the purchase price. Such right shall be unconditional and may be exercised in the sole discretion of TFM by written notice to KCS given by the
chairman of TFM and without any other corporate approvals of TFM or Grupo TMM. Proceeds from the sale were re-invested in TFM.

On
May 13, 2003, the Company completed the sale of its interest in the ports and terminals division to an affiliate of SSA, its former joint venture partner in the ports and terminals
division for approximately $114 million net in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments based on specified balance sheet items as of the closing date ("the Port Sale").

Proceeds
from the Port Sale were used to repurchase receivables outstanding under the Company's existing obligations for sale of receivables as required by the terms of the facility.
Following the application of the proceeds, the outstanding certificates under the facility as of May 15, 2003 were approximately $49.7 million, which is payable on June 30, 2003.

The
2003 notes matured on May 15, 2003 and the Company has not repaid the principal amount to date. As a result, the Company is in default under the terms of the 2003 notes, and
such default has resulted in a cross-defualt under the 2006 notes. If the company is unable to refinance or repay the
2003 notes or its 2006 notes, or fail to meet its other obligations, holders of the 2003 notes, 2006 notes and some of our creditors, as the case may be, could take legal action against the Company,
including instituting a reorganization proceeding in Mexico.

d.     Significant differences between IAS and U.S. GAAP:

i.      Deferred gain on sales and lease back transactions arising from disposal of building and vessels

Under IAS, the Company recognized a gain on the sale of its corporate building in 2000, three vessels in 1998 and two in 1997, which were leased back for a period
of five years in 2000 and five and eight years in 1998 and five years in 1997, respectively, without any obligation to repurchase. Under IAS, the gains were recognized at the respective transactions
dates whereas under U.S. GAAP, the gains should be

deferred
and amortized over the terms of the lease contracts. Accordingly, the gains and the related deferred income tax effects are being recognized over such leaseback periods. During 2002, the
leasing of the vessels "Tepozteco II" and "Aya II" ended anticipately, therefore the unamortized gains of $2,794 and $2,496, respectively, were recognized this year.

ii.     Pension and seniority premium plans

The Company accrues expenses for the pension and seniority premium plans on the basis of actuarial computations. Retirement benefits are based primarily on years
of service, age, and the employee's pay at retirement. The difference between IAS and U.S. GAAP relates mainly to the amortization of transition liability, variances in assumptions and the effect on
employee reduction.

The
pension and seniority premium plans liability is as follows:

|                                                             |  | December 31

|Accumulated benefit obligation                               |  |            
|Additional benefits related to future compensation increases |  |            
|                                                             |  |

The
change in the pension plan benefit obligation is as follows:

NOTE 19GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

On August 12, 2002, Grupo created a wholly owned Mexican subsidiary named TMM Holdings into which it transferred its 96.64% controlling interest in its
subsidiary TMM Multimodal which in turn holds, directly and indirectly, all of Grupo's controlling interest in Grupo TFM. TMM Holdings will irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the refinancing
contemplated by Grupo of the 91/2% Notes due 2003 and 101/4% Notes due 2006.

Presented
below is condensed consolidating information as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and for the three years ended December 31, 2002 for i) the parent company,
ii) the guarantor subsidiary, iii) the combined non-guarantor subsidiaries, iv) eliminations and v) the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Where
applicable the equity method has been used by the parent company and guarantor with respect to its investment in certain subsidiaries for the respective periods presented.

The
Company has not presented separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the guarantor subsidiary because Management has determined that such information is not
material to investors.
