|2.3 | Finance Parties rights and obligations
|--- | ---------------------------------------



| | (a) | The obligations of each Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several. Failure by a Finance Party to perform its obligations under the Finance Documents does not affect the
obligations of any other Party under the Finance Documents. No Finance Party is responsible for the obligations of any other Finance Party under the Finance Documents.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Except as otherwise stated in the Finance Documents, the rights of each Finance Party under or in connection with the Finance Documents are separate and independent rights and any
debt arising under the Finance Documents to a Finance Party from an Obligor shall be a separate and independent debt.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | A Finance Party may, except as otherwise stated in the Finance Documents, separately enforce its rights under the Finance Documents.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2.4 | Affiliate Facility Offices
|--- | --------------------------



| | (a) | A Lender may designate an Affiliate of that Lender as its Facility Office for the purpose of participating in or making Loans to Borrowers in particular countries.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | An Affiliate of a Lender may be designated for the purposes of paragraph (a):
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | by appearing under the name of the Lender in Part II (The Original Lenders) of Schedule 1 and executing this Agreement; or
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | by being referred to in and executing a Transfer Certificate by which the Lender becomes a Party.
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | An Affiliate of a Lender referred to in this Clause 2.4 shall not have any Commitment, but shall be entitled to all rights and benefits under the Finance Documents relating to its
participation in Loans, and shall have the corresponding duties of a Lender in relation thereto, and is a Party to this Agreement and each other relevant Finance Document for those purposes.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | A Lender which has an Affiliate appearing under its name in Part II (The Original Lenders) of Schedule 1 or, as the case may be, in a Transfer Certificate, will procure,
subject to the terms of this Agreement, that the Affiliate participates in Loans to the relevant Borrower(s) in place of that Lender. However, if as a result of the Affiliates participation, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the
Affiliate under Clause 14 (Tax Gross-up and indemnities) or Clause 15 (Increased costs), then the Affiliate is only entitled to receive payment under those clauses to the same extent as the Lender (designating such Affiliate) would
have been if the Lender had not designated such Affiliate for the purposes of paragraph (a) above.

| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | (afterwards in relation to a Term Loan made to it) in a Selection Notice,
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

in each case delivered by the Specified Time.



- 30 -

outstanding.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (i) | apply the amount paid to it by the Lenders pursuant to paragraph (a)(iv) above (or so much of that amount as is necessary) in or towards purchase of an amount in the currency in
which the Term Loan is outstanding for the first Interest Period; and
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | use the amount it purchases in or towards satisfaction of the Borrowers obligations under paragraph (a)(iii) above.
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | If the amount purchased by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b)(i) above is less than the amount required to be repaid by the Borrower, the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower
and the Borrower shall, on the last day of the first Interest Period, pay an amount to the Agent (in the currency of the outstanding Term Loan for the first Interest Period) equal to the difference.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | If any part of the amount paid to the Agent by the Lenders pursuant to paragraph (a)(iv) above is not needed to purchase the amount required to be repaid by the Borrower, the Agent
shall promptly notify the Borrower and pay the Borrower, on the last day of the first Interest Period that part of that amount (in the new currency).
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6.4 | Same Optional Currency during successive Interest Periods
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | If a Term Loan is to be denominated in the same Optional Currency during two successive Interest Periods, the Agent shall calculate the amount of the Term Loan in the Optional
Currency for the second of those Interest Periods (by calculating the amount of Optional Currency equal to the Base Currency Amount of that Loan at the Agents Spot Rate of Exchange at the Specified Time) and (subject to paragraph
(b) below):
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | if the amount calculated is less than the existing amount of that Loan in the Optional Currency during the first Interest Period, promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall
pay, on the last day of the first Interest Period, an amount equal to the difference; or
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | if the amount calculated is more than the existing amount of that Loan in the Optional Currency during the first Interest Period, promptly notify each Lender and, if no Event of
Default is continuing, each Lender shall, on the last day of the first Interest Period, pay its participation in an amount equal to the difference.
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | If the calculation made by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (a) above shows that the amount of the Loan in the Optional Currency for the second of those
Interest Periods
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



- 32 -



---

| | converted into the Base Currency at the Agents Spot Rate of Exchange at the Specified Time has increased or decreased by less than 5 per cent.
compared to its Base Currency Amount (taking into account any payments made pursuant to paragraph (a) above), no notification shall be made by the Agent and no payment shall be required under paragraph (a) above.
| | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6.5 | Agents calculations
|--- | --------------------



| | (a) | All calculations made by the Agent pursuant to this Clause 6.5 will take into account any repayment, prepayment, consolidation or division of Loans to be made on the last day of the
first Interest Period.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Each Lenders participation in a Loan will, subject to paragraph (a) above, be determined in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 5.4 (Lenders

| | (b) | undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever a Borrower does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, it shall immediately on demand pay
that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and

| | (c) | indemnifies each Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability suffered by that Finance Party if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes

| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|19.2 | Continuing Guarantee
|---- | --------------------

This guarantee is a
continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by each Borrower under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.



|19.3 | Reinstatement
|---- | -------------

If any payment by any Borrower or
any discharge given by a Finance Party (whether in respect of the obligations of any Borrower or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is avoided or reduced as a result of insolvency or any similar event:



| | (a) | the liability of each Borrower shall continue as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred; and

| | (b) | each Finance Party shall be entitled to recover the value or amount of that security or payment from each Borrower, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not

it may have of first requiring any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from a Guarantor under this Clause 19.5. This waiver
applies irrespective of any law or regulation or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

Each Guarantor also waives any right
to be sued jointly with other Guarantors and to share liability resulting from any claim against it.



|19.6 | Appropriations
|---- | --------------

Until all amounts which may be or
become payable by a Borrower under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:



| | (a) | refrain from applying or enforcing any other monies, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts,
or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

amounts which may be or become payable by a Borrower under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) otherwise directs, no Guarantor will

SCHEDULE 4

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE



|1. | The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial
Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2. | On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the Additional Cost Rate)
for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each
Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3. | The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Agent. This percentage
will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lenders participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum
reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|4. | The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Agent as follows:
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | in relation to a sterling Loan:
| | --- | -------------------------------



|                          |  |                    
|------------------------- |  | -------------------
|AB + C ( B  D) + Ex 0.01 |  |                    
|100 (A + C)              |  | per cent. per annum



| | (b) | in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling:
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------



|       |  |                    
|------ |  | -------------------
|Ex0.01 |  |                    
|300    |  | per cent. per annum

Where:



| | A | is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash
ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | B | is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in paragraph (a) of
Clause 10.3 (Default interest)) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



- 134 -



---

| | C | is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | D | is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | E | is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the
Reference Banks to the Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|5. | For the purposes of this Schedule:
|-- | ----------------------------------



| | (a) | Eligible Liabilities and Special Deposits have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998
or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | Fees Rules means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in
respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Fee Tariffs means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required
pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | Tariff Base has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6. | In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A
negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|7. | If requested by the Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Agent, the rate of charge payable
by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee
Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.
|-- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8. | Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall
supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:
|-- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and
| | --- | --------------------------------------------



| | (b) | any other information that the Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------



- 135 -



---

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to
this paragraph.



|9. | The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Agent based upon
the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Agent to the contrary, each Lenders obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same
as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|10. | The Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume
that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|11. | The Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the
information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12. | Any determination by the Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|13. | The Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Company and the Lenders, determine and notify to all Parties any amendments which are required to be made to this
Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces
all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

PROCEEDINGS PENDING OR THREATENED



|1. | Environmental Matters
|-- | ---------------------

United States

As of 30 November 2008, CEMEX, Inc. and its subsidiaries had accrued liabilities specifically relating to environmental matters in the aggregate amount of
approximately U.S.$42.6 million. The environmental matters relate to (i) the disposal of various materials, in accordance with past industry practice, which might be categorized as hazardous substances or wastes, and (ii) the cleanup of
sites used or operated by CEMEX, Inc., including discontinued operations, regarding the disposal of hazardous substances or wastes, either individually or jointly with other parties. Most of the proceedings are in the preliminary stage, and a final
resolution might take several years. For purposes of recording the provision, CEMEX, Inc. considers that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable, whether or not claims have been
asserted, and without giving effect to any possible future recoveries. Based on information available to date, CEMEX, Inc. does not believe it will be required to spend significant sums on these matters, in excess of the amounts previously recorded.
The ultimate cost that might be incurred to resolve these environmental issues cannot be assured until all environmental studies, investigations, remediation work, and negotiations with or litigation against potential sources of recovery have been
completed.

CEMEX Construction Materials Florida, LLC f/k/a Rinker Materials of Florida, Inc. (CEMEX Florida), a subsidiary of CEMEX,
Inc., holds one federal quarry permit and is the beneficiary of one of 10 other federal quarrying permits granted for the Lake Belt area in South Florida. The permit held by CEMEX Florida covers CEMEX Floridas SCL and FEC quarries. CEMEX
Floridas Krome quarry is operated under one of the other federal quarry permits. The FEC quarry is the largest of CEMEX Floridas quarries measured by volume of aggregates mined and sold. CEMEX Floridas Miami cement mill is located
at the SCL quarry and is supplied by that quarry. A ruling was issued on 22 March 2006 by a judge of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida in connection with litigation brought by environmental groups concerning the
manner in which the permits were granted. Although not named as a defendant, CEMEX Florida has intervened in the proceedings to protect its interests. The judge ruled that there were deficiencies in the procedures and analysis undertaken by the
relevant governmental agencies in connection with the issuance of the permits. The judge remanded the permits to the relevant governmental agencies for further review, which review the governmental agencies have indicated in a recent announcement
should take until mid February 2009 to conclude. The judge also conducted further proceedings to determine the activities to be conducted during the remand period. In July 2007, the judge issued a ruling that halted certain quarrying operations at
three non-CEMEX Florida quarries. The judge left in place CEMEX Floridas Lake Belt permits until the relevant government agencies complete their review. In a May 2008 ruling, the federal appellate court determined that the district court judge
did not apply the proper standard of review to the permit issuance decision of the governmental agency, vacated the district courts prior order, and remanded the proceeding to the district court to apply the proper standard of review; this
review remains pending before the district court judge. If the Lake Belt permits are ultimately set aside or quarrying operations under them restricted, CEMEX Florida will need to source aggregates, to the extent available, from other locations in
Florida or import aggregates. This would likely affect profits from our Florida operations. Any adverse impacts on the Florida economy arising from the cessation or significant restriction of quarrying operations in the Lake Belt could also have a
material adverse effect on our financial results.

Europe

In Great
Britain, future expenditure on closed and current landfill sites has been assessed and quantified over the period in which the sites are considered to have the potential to cause environmental harm, generally consistent with the regulator view of up
to 60 years from the date of closure. The assessed expenditure relates to the costs of monitoring the sites and the installation, repair and renewal of environmental infrastructure. The costs have been quantified on a net present value basis in the
amount of approximately £122 million, and an accounting provision for this sum has been made at 31 December 2007.

In 2003, the European
Union adopted a directive implementing the Kyoto Protocol on climate change and establishing a greenhouse gas emissions allowance trading scheme within the European Union. The directive requires Member States to impose binding caps on carbon dioxide
emissions from installations involved in energy activities, the production and processing of ferrous metals, the mineral industry (including cement production) and the pulp, paper or board production business. Under this scheme, companies with
operations in these sectors receive from the relevant Member States allowances that set limitations on the levels of greenhouse gas emissions from their installations. These allowances are tradable so as to enable companies that manage to reduce
their emissions to sell their excess allowances to companies that are not reaching their emissions objectives. Companies can also use credits issued from the use of the flexibility mechanisms under the Kyoto protocol to fulfill their European
obligations. These flexibility mechanisms provide that credits (equivalent to allowances) can be obtained by companies for projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions in emerging markets. These projects are referred to as Clean Development
Mechanism (CDM) or joint implementation projects depending on the countries where they take place. Failure to meet the emissions caps is subject to heavy penalties.

Companies can also use, up to a certain level, credits issued under the flexible mechanisms of the Kyoto protocol to fulfill their European obligations. Credits for Emission Reduction projects obtained under these
mechanisms are recognized, up to a certain level, under the European emission trading scheme as allowances. To obtain these emission reduction credits, companies must comply with very specific and restrictive requirements from the United Nations
Convention on Climate Change (UNFCC).

As required by directive, each of the Member States established a National Allocations Plan, or NAP, setting out the
allowance allocations for each industrial facility for Phase I, from 2005 to 2007. Based on the NAPs established by the Member States of the European Union for the 2005 to 2007 period and our actual production, on a consolidated basis after trading
allowances between our operations in countries with a deficit of allowances and our operations in countries with an excess of allowances, and after some external operations, Borrowers Subsidiaries had a surplus of allowances of approximately
1,050,054 tons of carbon dioxide in this Phase I.

For Phase II, comprising 2008 through 2012, however, there has been a reduction in the allowances
granted by the Member States that have already approved their NAP, which may result in a consolidated deficit in our carbon dioxide allowances during the period. We believe we may be able to reduce the impact of any deficit by either reducing carbon
dioxide emissions in our facilities or by

obtaining additional emission credits through the implementation of CDM projects. If we are not successful in implementing emission reductions in our
facilities or obtaining credits from CDM projects, we may have to purchase a significant amount of emission credits in the market, because CEMEX has already sold a substantial amount of allowances for Phase II, the cost of which may have an impact
on our operating results. As of 1 December 2008, the market value of carbon dioxide allowances for Phase II was approximately 15.45  per ton. CEMEX is taking all the measures to minimize our exposure to this market while assuring the
supply of our products to our clients.

The Spanish NAP has been finally approved by the Spanish Government, reflecting the conditions that were set forth
by the European Commission. The allocations made to our installations allow us to foresee certain availability of allowances, nevertheless, there remains the uncertainty regarding the allocations that, against the reserve for new entrants, shall be
requested for the new CEMEX cement plant in Andorra (Teruel), whose construction has been delayed, and that it is scheduled to start operating in 2010

On
29 May 2007, the Polish government filed an appeal before the Court of First Instance in Luxemburg regarding the European Commissions rejection of the initial version of the Polish NAP. The Court has denied Polands request for a
quick path verdict in the case, keeping the case in the regular proceeding path, therefore, the Polish government has started to prepare Polish internal rules on division of allowance at the level already accepted by the European Commission. Seven
major Polish cement producers, representing 98% of Polish cement production (including CEMEX Polska), have also filed seven separate appeals before the Court of First Instance regarding the European Commissions rejection. On 29 September
2008 the Court of the First Instance issued an order rejecting CEMEX Polskas appeal without going into the merit of the case. As of 4 December 2008 the final version of the Polish NAP has not been cleared by the Commission; CEMEX has not
determined the impact this may have on CEMEXs position in the country.



|2. | Tax Matters
|-- | -----------

Philippines

As of 30 November 2008, the Philippine Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR), had assessed APO, Solid, IQAC, ALQC and CSPI, our operating subsidiaries in the Philippines,
for deficiency taxes covering taxable years 1998-2005 amounting to a total of approximately 1,994 million Philippine Pesos (approximately U.S.$40.727 million as of 30 November 2008, based on an exchange rate of Philippine Pesos 48.96 to
U.S.$1.00, which was the Philippine Peso/Dollar exchange rate on 30 November 2008 as published by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, the central bank of the Republic of the Philippines).

The majority of the tax assessments result primarily from the disallowance of APOs income tax holiday incentives for taxable years 1999 to 2001 (approximately
Philippine Pesos 1,078 million or U.S.$22.1 million as of 30 November 2008, based on an exchange rate of Philippine Pesos 48.96 to U.S.$1.00). We have contested the BIRs assessment, arising from the disallowance of the ITH incentive,
with the Court of Tax Appeals (CTA). The initial Division ruling of the CTA was unfavorable, but is subject to further appeal with the CTA as a whole. The assessment is now currently on appeal with the CTA En Banc. A motion was filed with the CTA,
requesting the court to hold APO totally not liable for alleged income tax liabilities for all the years covered and to this end cancel and withdraw APOs deficiency income tax assessments for taxable years 1999, 2000 and 2001 on the basis of
APOs availment of the tax amnesty described below. As of 30 November 2008, resolution on the aforementioned motion is still pending.

|3. | CEMEX Venezuelan Nationalization
|-- | --------------------------------

In furtherance of
Venezuelas announced policy to nationalize certain sectors of the economy, on 18 June 2008, the Nationalization Decree was promulgated, mandating that the cement production industry in Venezuela be reserved for the Government of Venezuela
and ordering the conversion of foreign-owned cement companies, including CEMEX Venezuela, into state-controlled companies with Venezuela holding an equity interest of at least 60%. The Nationalization Decree provided for the formation of a
transition committee to be integrated with the board of directors of the relevant cement company to guaranty the transfer of control over all activities of the relevant cement company to Venezuela by 31 December 2008. The Nationalization Decree
further established a deadline of 17 August 2008 for the shareholders of foreign-owned cement companies, including CEMEX Venezuela, to reach an agreement with the Government of Venezuela on the compensation for the nationalization of their
assets. The Nationalization Decree also provided that this deadline may be extended by mutual agreement of the Government of Venezuela and the relevant shareholder. The transition committee, which was to be coordinated by the Ministry of Basic
Industries (MIBAN), was never formally instituted and MIBAN never acted in the process, but instead Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) conducted all the conversations.

CEMEX Venezuela and the Government did not reach agreement by the August 17 deadline, and on August 18 the Expropriation Decree was issued by the President of Venezuela, with PDVSA appointed to conduct the expropriation
proceedings. Although these proceedings had not yet commenced, PDVSA officials headed a group of PDVSA workers, with the support of the public force, to take over all the facilities of CEMEX Venezuela on August 17. Since no agreement has been
reached with the Venezuelan Government as to the compensation to be paid, the Dutch companies that control CEMEX Venezuela filed an arbitration request before the International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes against the Government
of Venezuela, which request has been registered and the tribunal is in the process of being formed.

As of 31 December 2007, CEMEX Venezuela, S.A.C.A.
was the holding entity of several of CEMEXs investments in the region, including CEMEXs operations in the Dominican Republic and Panama, as well as CEMEXs minority investment in Trinidad. In the wake of statements by the Government
of Venezuela about the nationalization of assets in Venezuela, in April 2008, CEMEX concluded the transfer of all material non-Venezuelan investments to CEMEX España for approximately U.S.$355 million plus U.S.$112 million of net debt, having
distributed all accrued profits from the non-Venezuelan investments to the stockholders of CEMEX Venezuela amounting to approximately U.S.$132 million. At this time, the net impact or the outcome of the nationalization on CEMEXs consolidated
financial results cannot be reasonably estimated. The approximate net assets of CEMEXs Venezuelan operations under Mexican FRS at 31 December 2007 were approximately Ps8,973 million. Since August 2008, CEMEX no longer consolidates the
financial results of CEMEX Venezuela.

On 13 June 2008, the Venezuelan securities authority initiated an administrative proceeding against CEMEX
Venezuela, claiming that the company did not sufficiently inform its shareholders and the securities authority in connection with the transfer of the non-Venezuelan assets described above. The Venezuelan authority determined that CEMEX Venezuela did
not comply with its disclosure

obligations and imposed fines on the company, which we do not consider material, and requested the attorney generals office to review the case to
determine if such non-disclosure also constituted criminal infringement.



|4. | Other Legal Proceedings
|-- | -----------------------

On 5 August 2005, a lawsuit was filed
against a subsidiary of CEMEX Colombia, claiming that it was liable along with the other members of the Asociación Colombiana de Productores de Concreto, or ASOCRETO, a union formed by all the ready-mix concrete producers in Colombia, for the
premature distress of the roads built for the mass public transportation system of Bogotá using ready-mix concrete supplied by CEMEX Colombia and other ASOCRETO members. The plaintiffs allege that the base material supplied for the road
construction failed to meet the quality standards offered by CEMEX Colombia and the other ASOCRETO members and/or that they provided insufficient or inaccurate information in connection with the product. The plaintiffs seek the repair of the roads
in a manner which guarantees their service during the 20-year period for which they were originally designed, and estimate that the cost of such repair will be approximately U.S.$45 million. The lawsuit was filed within the context of a criminal
investigation of two ASOCRETO officers and other individuals, alleging that the ready-mix concrete producers were liable for damages if the ASOCRETO officers were criminally responsible. The court completed the evidentiary stage, and on
17 August 2006 dismissed the charges against the members of ASOCRETO. The other defendants (one ex-director of the Distrital Institute of Development, the legal representative of the constructor and the legal representative of the contract
auditor) were formally accused. The decision was appealed, and on 11 December 2006, the decision was reversed and the two ASOCRETO officers were formally accused as participants (determiners) in the execution of a state contract without
fulfilling all legal requirements thereof. The first public hearing took place on 20 November 2007. In this hearing the judge dismissed an annulment petition filed by the ASOCRETO officers. The petition was based on the fact that the officers
were formally accused of a different crime than the one they were being investigated for. This decision was appealed, but the decision was confirmed by the Superior Court of Bogota. On 21 January 2008, CEMEX Colombia was subject to a judicial
order, issued by the court, sequestering a quarry called El Tujuelo, as security for a possible future money judgment to be rendered against CEMEX Colombia in these proceedings. The court determined that in order to lift this attachment and prevent
further attachments, CEMEX Colombia was required within a period of 10 days to deposit with the Court in cash CoP$337,800 million (approximately U.S.$195 million as of 4 June 2008, based on an exchange rate of CoP1730 to U.S.$1.00, which was
the Colombian Peso/Dollar exchange rate on 4 June 2008, as published by the Banco de la República de Colombia, the central bank of Colombia), instead of being allowed to post an insurance policy to secure such recovery. CEMEX Colombia
asked for reconsideration, and the court allowed CEMEX to present an insurance policy. Nevertheless, CEMEX appealed this decision, in order to reduce the amount of the insurance policy, and also requested that the guarantee be covered by all
defendants in the case. The measure does not affect the normal activity of the quarry. At this stage, we are not able to assess the likelihood of an adverse result or the potential damages which could be borne by CEMEX Colombia.

On 5 August 2005, Cartel Damages Claims, SA, or CDC, filed a lawsuit in the District Court in Düsseldorf, Germany against CEMEX Deutschland AG and other German
cement companies. CDC is seeking 102 million in respect of damage claims by 28 entities relating to alleged price and quota fixing by German cement companies between 1993 and 2002, which entities had assigned their claims

to CDC. CDC is a Belgian company established by two lawyers in the aftermath of the German cement cartel investigation that took place from July 2002 to
April 2003 by Germanys Federal Cartel Office with the express purpose of purchasing potential damages claims from cement consumers and pursuing those claims against the cartel participants. In January 2006, another entity assigned alleged
claims to CDC, and the amount of damages being sought by CDC increased to 113.5 million plus interest. On February 21 2007, the District Court of Düsseldorf decided to allow this lawsuit to proceed without going into the merits
of this case by issuing an interlocutory judgment. All defendants appealed. The appeal hearing took place on 22 April 2008, and the appeal was dismissed on 14 May 2008. The lawsuit will proceed at the level of court of first instance. As
of 30 September 2008 only one defendant has decided to file a complaint before the Federal High Court; this will delay the case from proceeding at the level of first instance to an extent we cannot assess today. In the meantime, CDC had
acquired new assigners and announced an increase in the claim to 131 million. As of 30 November 2008, we had accrued liabilities regarding this matter for a total amount of approximately 20 million.

After an extended consultation period, in April 2006, the cities of Katela and Solin in Croatia published their respective Master (physical) Plans defining the
development zones within their respective municipalities, adversely impacting the mining concession granted to Dalmacijacement, our subsidiary in Croatia, by the Government of Croatia in September 2005. During the consultation period,
Dalmacijacement submitted comments and suggestions to the Master Plans, but these were not taken into account or incorporated into the Master Plan by Katela and Solin. Most of these comments and suggestions were intended to protect and
preserve the rights of Dalmacijacement ́s mining concession granted by the Government of Croatia in September 2005. Immediately after publication of the Master Plans, Dalmacijacement filed a series of lawsuits and legal actions before the local
and federal courts to protect its acquired rights under the mining concessions. The legal actions taken and filed by Dalmacijacement were as follows: (i) on 17 May 2006, a constitutional appeal before the constitutional court in Zagreb,
seeking a declaration by the court concerning Dalmacijacements constitutional claim for decrease and obstruction of rights earned by investment, and seeking prohibition of implementation of the Master Plans. This cases is currently under
review by the court in Croatia, and it is expected that these proceedings will continue for several years before resolution; (ii) on 17 May 2006, a possessory action against the cities of Katela and Solin seeking the enactment of
interim measures prohibiting implementation of the Master Plans and including a request to implead the Republic of Croatia into the proceeding on our side. The municipal court in Solin issued a first instance judgment dismissing our possessory
action. We filed an appeal against that judgment. The appeal has been resolved by the Solin County Court, affirming the judgment and rendering it final. The Municipal Court in Katela has issued a first instance judgment dismissing our
possessory action. We filed an appeal against said judgment, which has since been resolved by the Katela Country Court, affirming the judgment and rendering it final; (iii) on 17 May 2006, an administrative proceeding before the
State Lawyer, seeking a declaration from the Government of Croatia confirming that Dalmacijacement acquired rights under the mining concessions. Dalmacijacement received State Lawyers opinion which confirms the Dalmacijacements acquired
rights according to the previous decisions (old concession). The Administrative Court in Croatia has ruled in favor of Dalmacijacement, validating the legality of the mining concession granted to Dalmacijacement by the Government of
Croatia. This decision is final. Currently it is difficult for Dalmacijacement to ascertain the approximate economic impact of these measures by Katela and Solin).

Club of Environmental Protection, a Latvian environmental protection organization (hereinafter the
Applicant), has initiated a court administrative proceeding against the decision made by the Environment State Bureau (hereinafter the Defendant) in order to amend the environmental pollution permit (the
Permit) for the Broceni Cement Plant in Latvia, owned by CEMEX SIA (the Disputed Decision). CEMEX SIA was invited to participate in the court proceedings as a third party, whose rights and legal interest may be
infringed by the relevant administrative act. On 5 June 2008 the Court rendered its judgment, where it satisfied the Claimants claim and revoked the Disputed Decision stating that it is illegal because Defendant failed to perform public
inquiry in accordance with legal regulations. The judgment has been appealed by both the Defendant and CEMEX SIA before the Court of Appeal and the court will hear the case in 24 February 2009. The appellate procedure will not suspend the
operation of the Permit which will remain valid throughout the court proceedings, hence CEMEX SIA is allowed to continue to perform its activities. The Permit subject to this proceeding was issued for the existing cement line, which will be fully
substituted in the first half of 2009 by a new cement line currently under construction.
