future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company
in reliance thereon, regardless of whether notation of such action is made upon such Security.

(e) The Company may set any
day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Note
Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of Securities, provided that the Company may not set a record date for, and the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply with respect to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration,
request or direction referred to in the next paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant action, regardless
of whether such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date
previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding
Securities on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date
to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106.

(f) The
Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any declaration of acceleration referred to in
Section 502, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 507(2) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 512. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, regardless whether such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be
effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from
setting a new record date for any action (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and without any action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), nor shall anything in this paragraph be construed to render ineffective any
action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Companys expense, shall cause notice of
such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106.

(g) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto that sets
such record date may designate any day as the Expiration Date and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day, provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new
Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 106, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any
record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change
the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.

Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Security may do so
with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this Note Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in
writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition
precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

New Sunward Holding Financial Ventures B.V., a private company with limited liability formed under the laws of the Netherlands (herein
called the Company, which term includes any successor Person under the Note Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to [name of Holder] or registered assigns, the principal sum of
 Dollars, or such other principal amount as may be set forth in the records of the Trustee hereinafter referred to in
accordance with the Note Indenture and to pay interest thereon from December 18, 2006 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for in the amount and currency provided in the Note Indenture.
The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Note Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the
close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the March 15, June 15, September 15 or December 15 (regardless of whether a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest
Payment Date; provided that the record date for the first Interest Payment Date will be December 19, 2006. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular
Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the
Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on

City of New York or, at the option of the Holder and subject to any fiscal or other laws and regulations, at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose; provided, however, that upon application by the Holder
to the Security Registrar not later than the 10th day immediately preceding the relevant Regular Record Date, such Holder may receive payment by wire transfer to a U.S. Dollar account (such transfers to be made only to Holders of an
aggregate principal amount in excess of $5,000,000) maintained by the payee with a bank in The City of New York; and provided,further, that, subject to the preceding proviso, payment of interest may, at the option of the Company, be

The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify the Holder of this

SECTION 203 Form of Reverse of Security.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company designated as its Callable Perpetual Dual-Currency Notes
(herein called the Securities), issued and to be issued under a Note Indenture, dated as of December 18, 2006 (herein called the Note Indenture, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), among
the Company, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York, as Trustee (herein called the Trustee, which term includes any successor trustee under the Note Indenture), to which Note Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to
be, authenticated and delivered.

As provided in Article Twelve of the Note Indenture, the Guarantors have, for the benefit of
the Holders, jointly and severally irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable by the Company under the Note Indenture and the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable. Reference
is hereby made to Article Twelve of the Note Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and amounts thereunder of the Guarantors and the Trustee.

All payments of principal and interest in respect of the Securities, the Note Indenture and the Guarantee by or for the account of the
Company or any Guarantor shall be made without withholding or deduction for any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of Mexico, the
Netherlands, the British Virgin Islands or in the event the Company or any Guarantor appoints additional paying agents, by the jurisdictions of such additional paying agents (each a Note Taxing Jurisdiction), or any political subdivision
thereof or any authority therein or thereof (Applicable Taxes), except to the extent that such Applicable Taxes are required by a Note Taxing Jurisdiction or any such political subdivision or authority to be withheld or deducted. In the
event of any withholding or deduction for any Applicable Taxes, the Company and the Guarantors shall pay such additional amounts (Additional Amounts) as will result in receipt by the Holders of Securities on the respective due dates of
such amounts as would have been received by them had no such withholding or deduction (including for any Applicable Taxes payable in respect of Additional Amounts) been required, except that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect
to any payment on a Security:

(i) to the extent that such taxes or duties are imposed or levied by reason of
such Holder (or the beneficial owner) having some connection with the Note Taxing Jurisdiction other than the mere holding (or beneficial ownership) of such Securities;

(ii) to the extent that such taxes or duties are imposed on, or measured by, net income of the Holder (or beneficial
owner);

(iii) in respect of which the Holder (or beneficial owner) fails to comply with any certification,
identification or other reporting requirement concerning its nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Note Taxing Jurisdiction if (1) compliance is required by applicable law, regulation, administrative practice or treaty as a
precondition to exemption from all or a part of the taxes, (2) the Holder (or beneficial



-19-

owner) is able to comply with those requirements without undue hardship and (3) the Company has given all Holders at least 30 days prior notice that they will be required to
comply with such requirements;

(iv) in respect of which the Holder (or beneficial owner) fails to surrender
(where surrender is required) its Securities for payment within 30 days after the Company has made available a payment of principal or interest, provided that the Company will pay Additional Amounts to which a Holder would have been
entitled had the Securities been surrendered on any day (including the last day) within such 30-day period;

(v) to the extent that such taxes or duties are imposed by reason of an estate, inheritance, gift, value added, use or
sales tax or any similar taxes, assessments or other governmental charges;

(vi) where such withholding or
deduction is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 or any law
implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; or

(vii) by or on behalf
of a Holder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the relevant Securities to another paying agent in a member state of the European Union.

The Company shall provide the Trustee, as soon as practicable, with documentation (which may consist of certified copies of such
documentation) satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Applicable Taxes in respect of which the Company has paid any Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the Holders of the Securities or the
Paying Agent, as applicable, upon request therefor.

The Company shall pay all stamp and other duties, if any, which may be
imposed by Mexico, the United States of America, the Netherlands or any other applicable jurisdiction or any authority therein or thereof, with respect to the Note Indenture, the Guarantee, the Conversion Payment Undertaking or the issuance of this
Security.

At all times when CEMEX is required to file any financial statements or reports with the Commission, CEMEX shall
use its best efforts to file all required statements or reports in a timely manner in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Commission. In addition, at any time when CEMEX is not subject to or is not current in its reporting obligations
under Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act or is not included on the Commissions list of foreign private issuers that claim exemption from the registration requirements of Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act pursuant to
Rule 12g3-2(b) thereunder and any Debentures remain outstanding (or if otherwise required with respect to the Company, any Guarantor or C5 Capital (SPV) Limited), CEMEX will make available, upon request, to any holder and any prospective
purchaser of Debentures that are restricted securities under the Securities Act, the information referred to in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act in order to permit resales of the Debentures in compliance with Rule 144A.



-20-



---

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of this Security or of
all the Securities may be declared due and payable to the extent, in the manner and with the effect provided in the Note Indenture.

The Note Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Company and the Guarantors and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Note Indenture at any time by the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee with the consent of the Trustee, Swap Counterparty, the holders of not
less than the majority in principal amount (by aggregate liquidation preference) of the Debentures then Outstanding (as defined in the Debenture Indenture) and the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities. The Note Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, to waive compliance by the Company
with certain provisions of the Note Indenture and certain past defaults under the Note Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, regardless of whether notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As provided in and subject to the Note Indenture, at any time when there is more than one Holder of Securities, the Holder of this
Security shall not have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Note Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder has previously given written notice to the
Trustee of a continuing Event of Default, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered
the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee has not received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities a direction inconsistent with such request, and has failed to institute any such proceeding, for
60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and indemnity. The foregoing does not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of the principal hereof or interest hereon on or after the
respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Note Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the
Note Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Note Indenture and subject to certain limitations and satisfaction of certain requirements therein set forth, the
transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The
Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Note Indenture and subject to certain limitations and satisfaction of certain
requirements therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of the same or a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.



-21-



---

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, regardless of whether this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee nor any
such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Interest on this Security shall be computed as follows:

Yen Floating Rate Interest Unless the interest rate has been previously converted to the Dollar Fixed Rate, the Securities
will accrue interest in Japanese Yen beginning on the issue date to but not including December 31, 2011, at an annual percentage rate equal to the 6-month Yen LIBO Rate multiplied by 4.3531(the Yen Rate), reset semi-annually, as
applied to a Yen principal amount of Japanese Yen 40,905,000,000 (the Yen Equivalent Principal Amount). Interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year (or, if not a Business Day, on
the preceding Business Day), each also a LIBO Rate Reset Date, beginning on December 31, 2006.

The amount of
interest payable for any semi-annual interest period will be computed by multiplying the Yen Rate for that semi-annual interest period by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the actual number of days elapsed during that semi-annual interest
period (determined by including the first day of the interest period and excluding the last day), and the denominator of which will be 360, and by multiplying the result by the Yen Equivalent Principal Amount corresponding to the aggregate
outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities. The Yen Equivalent Principal Amount will not change over time as a result of fluctuations in the Yen Rate or the Dollar Floating Rate. For the initial interest period ending on December 31,
2006, the Yen Rate will be 1.79021%.

Dollar Fixed Rate Interest If the interest rate on the Securities has been
converted to the Dollar Fixed Rate, the Securities will accrue interest in Dollars, from the semi-annual Interest Payment Date on or immediately prior to the Conversion Date (or the issue date if there is no semi-annual Interest Payment Date prior
to the Conversion Date) to but not including December 31, 2011, at the annual rate of 6.196% (the Dollar Fixed Rate), as applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities. Interest will be payable
semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year (or, if not a Business Day, on the preceding Business Day). The interest due at the Dollar Fixed Rate on an Interest Payment Date may be reduced by the application of
Conversion Credits, if applicable, on such Interest Payment Date.

The amount of interest payable for any semi-annual interest
accrual period at the Dollar Fixed Rate will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.



-22-



---

Dollar Floating Rate Interest The Securities will accrue interest in U.S.
Dollars, beginning on December 31, 2011, to the date the principal amount of the Securities is repaid in full, at an annual percentage rate equal to the 3-month U.S. Dollar LIBO Rate plus 4.277% (the Dollar Floating Rate), as
applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities. Interest will be reset quarterly, as applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities and payable quarterly in arrears on March 31,
June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (or if not a Business Day, on the preceding Business Day), each also a LIBO Rate Reset Date, beginning on March 31, 2012.

The amount of interest payable at the Dollar Floating Rate for any quarterly interest period will be computed by multiplying the Dollar
Floating Rate for that quarterly interest period by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the actual number of days elapsed during that quarterly interest period (determined by including the first day of the interest period and excluding the
last day), and the denominator of which will be 360, and by multiplying the result by the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding.

Determining the Floating Rates

The 6-month Yen LIBO Rate means the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions:

(1) On the LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent or its affiliate will determine the 6-month Yen LIBO Rate, which will
be the rate for deposits in Japanese Yen having a six-month maturity which appears on the Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date.

(2) If no rate appears on Telerate Page 3750 on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the rate will be determined on the basis of
the rates at which deposits in Japanese Yen are offered by the reference banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date to prime banks in the London Inter-Bank Market for the period of six months

banks to provide a quotation for its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, then the 6-month Yen LIBO Rate for that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest
one-hundredth (0.01) of a percent). If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundredth (0.01) of a percent) of
the rates quoted by major banks in Tokyo, selected by the Calculation Agent, at approximately 11:00 a.m., Tokyo time on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date for loans in Japanese Yen to leading European banks having a six-month maturity
commencing on the applicable LIBO Rate Reset Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in Yen in that market at that time.

(1) On the LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the LIBO Calculation Agent or its affiliate will determine the 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate,
which will be the rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars having a three-month maturity which appears on the Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date.

(2) If no rate appears on Telerate Page 3750 on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date,
the rate will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. Dollars are offered by the reference banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date to prime banks in the London
Inter-Bank Market for the period of three months commencing on the applicable LIBO Rate Reset Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. Dollars in that market at that time. The LIBO Calculation Agent will
request the principal London office of each of the reference banks to provide a quotation for its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, then the 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate for that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic
mean of the quotations (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundredth (0.01) of a percent). If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean (rounded, if
necessary, to the nearest one-hundredth (0.01) of a percent) of the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the LIBO Calculation Agent, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York time on the applicable LIBO Rate Reset Date for
loans in U.S. Dollars to leading European banks having a three-month maturity commencing on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. Dollars in that market at that time.

LIBOR Business Day means (a) for the 6-month Yen LIBO Rate any business day on which dealings in deposits in Japanese
Yen are transacted in the London Inter-Bank market and (b) for the 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate any business day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. Dollars are transacted in the London Inter-Bank market.

LIBO Calculation Agent means The Bank of New York, or its successor, acting as calculation agent.

Interest upon Change of Control

Upon a Change of Control Event, from the date on which the Change of Control Event occurs, the Securities will bear, in addition to the
interest otherwise applicable to the Securities, additional interest in Dollars at a rate of 5.00% per year, as applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities. The amount of additional interest payable for any
semi-annual interest accrual period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Optional Deferral of Interest

The Company may defer, at its sole discretion, on one or more occasions, payment for all (but not part) of the scheduled interest payment
otherwise due and payable on any Interest Payment Date that falls on or after the earlier of (a) the Conversion Date and (b) March 31, 2012. The Company will give the Holder and the Debenture Trustee notice of any interest deferral
not more than 30 nor less than 10 Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. If the Interest Payment Date for which interest deferral is proposed is also the Conversion Date, no election to defer interest due on that date shall be
effective unless the Company shall have converted the interest rate on the Securities and paid in full any Conversion Payment due in connection with the conversion.

Any deferred amounts on the Securities not paid on an Interest Payment Date will accumulate but will bear no interest.

The Company may at any time pay in whole or in part any deferred interest by providing at least five Business Days written notice to the
Holder and the Debenture Trustee.

The Company may not defer application of any available Conversion Credits, which shall be
applied on each Interest Payment Date to reduce the amount of interest paid or deferred, as applicable, on the Securities.

The Company may not elect to defer any scheduled interest on the Securities due on any Interest Payment Date at any time when CEMEX or
any of its Subsidiaries has:

(i) declared or paid any dividend, or made any distributions on common stock of
CEMEX at or since the most recent annual general meeting of the shareholders of CEMEX;

(ii) paid any interest
or other distributions on any Qualifying Equity Security after the interest payment date of the Debentures immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date for which interest deferral is proposed; or

(iii) repurchased, redeemed or otherwise reacquired any Qualifying Equity Security after the interest payment date for the
Debentures immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date for which interest deferral is proposed, other than repurchases, redemptions or reacquisitions (a) the sole consideration for which was the payment of common stock of CEMEX (or rights
to acquire common stock of CEMEX), or (b) in connection with the satisfaction of obligations under any existing or future benefit plan for directors, officers or employees.

At any time the Company elects to defer payment of any interest amount on the Securities and for so long as any amount of deferred
interest remains unpaid none of CEMEX and its Subsidiaries will:

(i) declare or pay any dividends, make any
distributions or pay any interest on any Qualifying Equity Security; or



-25-



---

(ii) repurchase, redeem or otherwise reacquire any Qualifying Equity
Security, other than repurchases, redemptions or reacquisitions (a) the sole consideration for which was the payment of common stock of CEMEX (or rights to acquire common stock of CEMEX), or (b) in connection with the satisfaction of
obligations under any existing or future benefit plan for directors, officers or employees.

At any time on or prior to
December 31, 2011, upon the first Interest Payment Date for which the Company has elected to defer interest, the Company must, as a condition to interest deferral, convert the interest rate on the Securities from the Yen Rate to the Dollar
Fixed Rate as of that Interest Payment Date (which, in the case of such conversion, shall be the Conversion Date) by written notice to the Holder, the Debenture Trustee, the Trustee and the Swap Counterparty not less than 10 Business
Days prior to the Interest Payment Date. No conversion shall be effective on any Interest Payment Date (and such Interest Payment Date shall not constitute the Conversion Date) unless C5 Capital (SPV) Limited shall have received from the Company the
applicable Conversion Payments with respect to such conversion.

The interest rate on the Securities will automatically
convert from the Yen Rate to the Dollar Fixed Rate, if on any date (which, in the case of such conversion, shall be the Conversion Date) on or prior to December 31, 2011:

(i) the Conditions to Anticipated Swap Termination, have been deemed satisfied as of such date;

(ii) C5 Capital (SPV) Limited delivers to the Company written notice that an Event of Default with respect to the payment
of any installment of interest or any specified event of bankruptcy, liquidation, insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to the Company or any of the Guarantors has occurred;

(iii) the Securities are declared or become immediately due and payable as a result of an Event of Default; or

(iv) any amendment or modification on any term or condition under the Securities, which requires the consent of the
holders of the Debentures pursuant to the Debenture Indenture, is made without the written consent of the Swap Counterparty.

Upon conversion, the Company may owe a Conversion Payment under the Conversion Payment Undertaking or may be entitled to Conversion
Credits with respect to future interest payments on the Securities, provided that no Conversion Payment shall be due and no Conversion Credits shall apply if the Conditions to Anticipated Swap Termination have been satisfied as of the
Conversion Date.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Note Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to
them in the Note Indenture.

THE NOTE INDENTURE, THE GUARANTEE AND THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

guarantees, on an unsecured basis, to the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed, and to the Trustee on behalf of such Holder, the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including
Additional Amounts) on such Security when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or otherwise, according to the terms thereof and of the Note Indenture referred to therein. In case of the
failure of the Company punctually to make any such payment, the Guarantors hereby agree to cause such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or
otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Company.

The Guarantors hereby agree that their respective obligations
hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of such Security or the Note Indenture, any failure, omission, delay by or inability of the Trustee or the Holder to enforce the same, any
amendment or modification of or deletion from or addition or supplement to or other change in this Guarantee, the Note Indenture, such Security or any other applicable instrument, any waiver of the payment, performance or observance of any of the
obligations or agreements contained in this Guarantee, the Note Indenture or such Security, any release or discharge, by operation of law, of any Guarantor from the performance or observance of any obligation or agreement contained in this

Event of Default, the Trustee or any of the Holders are prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Securities, to collect interest on
the Securities, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the Securities, the Guarantors agree to pay to the Trustee for the account of the Holders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and
payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Trustee or any of the Holders.

No reference herein
to the Note Indenture and no provision of this Guarantee or of the Note Indenture shall alter or impair this Guarantee of the Guarantors, which is absolute and unconditional, of the due and punctual payment of the principal (and premium, if any) and
interest (including Additional Amounts) on the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed.

The Guarantors shall be
subrogated to all rights of the Holder of such Security against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by the Guarantors on account of such Security pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee or the Note Indenture; provided,however, that the Guarantors shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Security and all other Securities
issued under the Note Indenture shall have been paid in full.

This Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated,
as the case may be, if at any time any payment or performance with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Trustee, any Holder or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made or occurred. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded or must otherwise be returned, the Guaranteed Obligations shall be
reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded or returned. The obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantee shall not be subject to reduction, termination or other impairment by any set-off, recoupment,
counterclaim or defense or for any other reason.

All terms used in this Guarantee that are defined in the Note Indenture
referred to in the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed shall have the meanings assigned to them in such Note Indenture.

Guarantee is endorsed shall have been executed by the Trustee under the Note Indenture by manual signature.

Reference is made
to Article Twelve of the Note Indenture for further provisions with respect to this Guarantee.

This Guarantee shall be

is due until it is paid or made available for payment, and such interest on any overdue amount shall be payable on demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall make all payments to the Trustee within the dates and time periods set forth
in the Master Collateral Agreement.



-29-

The principal on the Securities shall be payable in immediately available funds and in such
coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payment of interest on the Security will be made in immediately available funds and in such coin or currency of the
United States of America or Japan, as applicable, as at the time of payment is legal tender payment of public and private debt. Subject to any written agreement between the Company and the applicable Holder, each such payment of principal and
interest will be made at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York maintained for such purpose or, at the option of the Holder and subject to any fiscal or other laws and regulations, at any other office
or agency maintained by the Company outside of Mexico for such purpose; provided,however, that upon application by the Holder to the Trustee not later than the 10th day immediately preceding the relevant Regular Record Date, such
Holder may receive payment by wire transfer to a U.S. Dollar account (such transfers to be made only to Holders of an aggregate principal amount in excess of $5,000,000) maintained by the payee with a bank in The City of New York, New York; and
provided,further, that, subject to the preceding proviso, payment of interest may, at the option of the Company, be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security
Register. Unless such designation is revoked, any such designation made by such Holder with respect to such Security will remain in effect with respect to any future payments with respect to such Security payable to such Holder. The Company will pay
any administrative costs imposed by banks in connection with making such payments.

The Securities shall be redeemable as
provided in Article Eleven.

The Securities shall be irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed as provided in Article Twelve.

SECTION 302 Denominations.

$1,000 in excess thereof.

SECTION 303 Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

behalf. The signature of any such Person on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.

Securities bearing the manual or
facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of
such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

At any time and from time to time after the
execution and delivery of this Note Indenture, the Company may deliver Securities executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities; and the Trustee in
accordance with such Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities as in this Note Indenture provided and not otherwise.

Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.



-30-



---

No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Note Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.

SECTION 304 Temporary
Securities.

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Company may execute, and upon Company Order the Trustee
shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are
issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary Securities at any office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002, without charge
to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized
denominations. Until so exchanged the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Note Indenture as definitive Securities.

SECTION 305 Registration, Registration of Transfer and Exchange.

(a) The Company shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office
and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes collectively referred to as the Security Register) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall
provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Trustee is hereby appointed Security Registrar for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided. Upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Security at an office or agency of the Company designated pursuant to Section 1002 for such purpose, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 305, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.

At the option of the Holder, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 305, Securities may be exchanged for other
Securities of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange, and subject to the other
provisions of this Section 305, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

All Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Company,
evidencing the same debt, and subject to the other provisions of this Section 305, entitled to the same benefits under this Note Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.



-31-



---

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall
(if so required by the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed, by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the
Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 304 or 905 not
involving any transfer.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Note Indenture or the Securities, a Global Security
may not be transferred, in whole or in part, to any Person other than the Holders or a nominee thereof, and no such transfer to any such other Person may be registered.

(c) Each Global Security issued hereunder shall, upon issuance, bear the legends required by Section 202 to be applied to such a
Security and such required legends shall not be removed from such Security.

SECTION 306 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen
Securities.

If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.

If there shall be delivered to the Company and the Trustee (i) evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and any agent of either of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a
bona fide purchaser, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and principal amount and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding at the office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which will initially be the office of the Trustee.

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company in its
discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this
Section, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith.

Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an
original additional contractual obligation of the Company,



-32-



---

regardless of whether the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Note Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section are exclusive and
shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

SECTION 307 Payment of Interest; Interest Rights Preserved.

Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the
Person in whose name that Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, subject to any contrary written agreement between the Company and any Holder.

Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein
called Defaulted Interest) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its election in each case,
as provided in Clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted
Interest to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special record date (herein called a Special Record Date) for the payment of such Defaulted
Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company
shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed
payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this Clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest
which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly
notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid,
to each Holder at his address as it appears in the Security Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so mailed,
such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the
following Clause (2).

(2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful
manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment
pursuant to this Clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.



-33-



---

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Note
Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Security.

SECTION 308 Persons Deemed Owners.

Prior to due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and any agent of the
Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and (subject to Section 307) interest
on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, regardless of whether such Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.

SECTION 309 Cancellation.

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than
the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly cancelled by it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Company may have acquired
in any manner whatsoever, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities cancelled as provided in this Section, except as expressly
permitted by this Note Indenture. All cancelled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of as directed by a Company Order or otherwise in accordance with the customary procedures of the Trustee.

SECTION 310 Computation of Interest.

Interest on the Securities shall be computed as follows:

Yen Floating Rate Interest Unless the interest rate has been previously converted to the Dollar Fixed Rate, the Securities
will accrue interest in Japanese Yen beginning on the issue date to but not including December 31, 2011, at an annual percentage rate equal to the 6-month Yen LIBO Rate multiplied by 4.3531 (the Yen Rate), reset semi-annually, as
applied to a Yen principal amount of Japanese Yen 40,905,000,000 (the Yen Equivalent Principal Amount). Interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year (or, if not a Business Day, on
the preceding Business Day), each also a LIBO Rate Reset Date, beginning on December 31, 2006.

The amount of
interest payable for any semi-annual interest period will be computed by multiplying the Yen Rate for that semi-annual interest period by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the actual number of days elapsed during that semi-annual interest
period (determined by including the first day of the interest period and excluding the last day), and the denominator of which will be 360, and by multiplying the result by the Yen Equivalent Principal Amount corresponding to the aggregate
outstanding Dollar principal amount of the



-34-



---

Securities. The Yen Equivalent Principal Amount will not change over time as a result of fluctuations in the Yen Rate or the Dollar Floating Rate. For the initial interest period ending on
December 31, 2006, the Yen Rate will be 1.79021%.

Dollar Fixed Rate Interest If the interest rate on the
Securities has been converted to the Dollar Fixed Rate, the Securities will accrue interest in Dollars, from the semi-annual Interest Payment Date on or immediately prior to the Conversion Date (or the issue date if there is no semi-annual Interest
Payment Date prior to the Conversion Date) to but not including December 31, 2011, at the annual rate of 6.196% (the Dollar Fixed Rate), as applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities. Interest
will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 31 of each year (or, if not a Business Day, on the preceding Business Day). The interest due at the Dollar Fixed Rate on an Interest Payment Date may be reduced by the
application of Conversion Credits, if applicable, on such Interest Payment Date.

The amount of interest payable for any
semi-annual interest accrual period at the Dollar Fixed Rate will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

Dollar Floating Rate Interest The Securities will accrue interest in Dollars, beginning on December 31, 2011, to the
date the principal amount of the Securities is repaid in full, at an annual percentage rate equal to the 3-month U.S. Dollar LIBO Rate plus 4.277% (the Dollar Floating Rate), as applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal
amount of the Securities. Interest will be reset quarterly, as applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities and payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of
each year (or if not a Business Day, on the preceding Business Day), each also a LIBO Rate Reset Date, beginning on March 31, 2012.

The amount of interest payable at the Dollar Floating Rate for any quarterly interest period will be computed by multiplying the Dollar
Floating Rate for that quarterly interest period by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the actual number of days elapsed during that quarterly interest period (determined by including the first day of the interest period and excluding the
last day), and the denominator of which will be 360, and by multiplying the result by the aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding.

Determining the Floating Rates

The 6-month Yen LIBO Rate means the rate determined in accordance with the provisions defined in Section 203.

The 3-month Dollar LIBO Rate means the rate determined in accordance with the provisions defined in Section 203.

Interest upon Change of Control

Upon a Change of Control Event, from the date on which the Change of Control Event occurs, the Securities will bear, in addition to the
interest otherwise applicable to the Securities, additional interest in Dollars at a rate of 5.00% per year, as applied to the aggregate outstanding Dollar principal amount of the Securities. The amount of additional interest payable for any
semi-annual interest accrual period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

SECTION 311 Interest Deferral.

The Company may defer, at its sole discretion, on one or more occasions, payment for all (but not part) of the scheduled interest payment
otherwise due and payable on any Interest Payment Date that falls on or after the earlier of (a) the Conversion Date and (b) March 31, 2012. The Company will give the Holder and the Debenture Trustee notice of any interest deferral
not more than 30 nor less than 10 business days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. If the Interest Payment Date for which interest deferral is proposed is also the Conversion Date, no election to defer interest due on that date
shall be effective unless the Company shall have converted the interest rate on the Securities and paid in full any Conversion Payment due in connection with the conversion.

Any deferred amounts on the Securities not paid on an Interest Payment Date will accumulate but will bear no interest.

The Company may at any time pay in whole or in part any deferred interest by providing at least five Business Days written notice to the
Holder and the Debenture Trustee.

The Company may not defer application of any available Conversion Credits, which shall be
applied on each Interest Payment Date to reduce the amount of interest paid or deferred, as applicable, on the Securities.

SECTION 312
Limitation on Interest Deferral.

The Company may not elect to defer any scheduled interest on the Securities due on
any Interest Payment Date at any time when CEMEX or any of its Subsidiaries has:

(i) declared or paid any
dividend, or made any distributions on common stock of CEMEX at or since the most recent annual general meeting of the shareholders of CEMEX;

(ii) paid any interest or other distributions on any Qualifying Equity Security after the interest payment date of the
Debentures immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date for which interest deferral is proposed; or

(iii)
repurchased, redeemed or otherwise reacquired any Qualifying Equity Security after the interest payment date for the Debentures immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date for which interest deferral is proposed, other than repurchases,
redemptions or reacquisitions (a) the sole consideration for which was the payment of common stock of CEMEX (or rights to acquire common stock of CEMEX), or (b) in connection with the satisfaction of obligations under any existing or
future benefit plan for directors, officers or employees.

At any time the Company elects to defer payment of any interest
amount on the Securities and for so long as any amount of deferred interest remains unpaid none of CEMEX and its Subsidiaries will:

(i) declare or pay any dividends, make any distributions or pay any interest on any Qualifying Equity Security; or



-36-



---

(ii) repurchase, redeem or otherwise reacquire any Qualifying Equity
Security, other than repurchases, redemptions or reacquisitions (i) the sole consideration for which was the payment of common stock of CEMEX (or rights to acquire common stock of CEMEX), or (ii) in connection with the satisfaction of
obligations under any existing or future benefit plan for directors, officers or employees.

SECTION 313 Conversion Upon Deferral.

At any time on or prior to December 31, 2011, upon the first Interest Payment Date for which the Company has elected to
defer interest, the Company must, as a condition to interest deferral, convert the interest rate on the Securities from the Yen Rate to the Dollar Fixed Rate as of that Interest Payment Date (which shall be the Conversion Date for
purposes of any conversion pursuant to this Section 313) by written notice to the Holder, the Debenture Trustee, the Trustee and the Swap Counterparty not less than 10 Business Days prior to the payment date. No conversion shall be effective on
any Interest Payment Date (and such Interest Payment Date shall not constitute the Conversion Date) unless C5 Capital (SPV) Limited shall have received from the Company on or prior to such Interest Payment Date any applicable Conversion Payments
with respect to such conversion.

SECTION 314 Conversion Upon Redemption.

If the company elects to redeem the Securities in accordance with Article Eleven on or prior to December 31, 2011, the Company
must, as a condition to redemption, convert the interest rate on the Securities from the Yen Rate to the Dollar Fixed Rate as of that Redemption Date (which shall be the Conversion Date for purposes of any conversion pursuant to this
Section 314) by written notice to the Holder, the Debenture Trustee, the Trustee and the Swap Counterparty not less than 10 Business Days prior to the Interest Payment Date. Neither C5 Capital (SPV) Limited nor the Debenture Trustee shall apply
any proceeds of redemption of the Securities to pay any redemption price due with respect to the Debentures unless C5 Capital (SPV) Limited shall have received from the Company on or prior to such Interest Payment Date any applicable Conversion
Payment with respect to such conversion.

SECTION 315 Mandatory Conversion.

The interest rate on the Securities will automatically convert from the Yen Rate to the Dollar Fixed Rate, if on any date (which shall be
the Conversion Date for purposes of any conversion pursuant to this Section 315) on or prior to December 31, 2011:

(i) the Conditions to Anticipated Swap Termination, have been deemed satisfied as of such date;

(ii) C5 Capital (SPV) Limited delivers to the Company written notice that an Event of Default with respect to the payment
of any installment of interest or any Event of Default under clause (5) or (6) of Section 501 has occurred;

result of an Event of Default; or

(iv) any amendment or modification on any term or condition under the
Securities, which requires the consent of the holders of the Debentures pursuant to the Debenture Indenture, is made without the written consent of the Swap Counterparty.

Upon conversion, the Company may owe a Conversion Payment under the Conversion Payment Undertaking or may be entitled to Conversion
Credits with respect to future interest payments on the Securities, provided that no Conversion Payment shall be due and no Conversion Credits shall apply if the Conditions to Anticipated Swap Termination have been satisfied as of the
Conversion Date.

SECTION 502 Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or 501
(6)) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee shall, at the written request of the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by notice in writing to the Company, declare the
principal of all the Securities to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration such principal and any accrued interest and any unpaid Additional Amounts thereon shall become immediately due and payable. Regardless of whether any
action is taken by Holders pursuant to the preceding sentence if an Event of Default specified in Section 501(5) or (6) occurs and is continuing, the principal and any accrued interest, together with any Additional Amounts thereon, on all
of the Securities then Outstanding shall ipso facto become due and payable immediately without any declaration or other Act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

consequences if:

pay

(D) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee
hereunder and all amounts owing the Trustee under Section 607;

and

(2) all Events of Default, other than the non payment of the principal of Securities which have become due solely by such
declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 513.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon.

SECTION 503 Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

The Company covenants that if default is made in the payment of the principal of any Security at the Maturity
thereof or any interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of five Business Days after receipt of notice for any interest payment or such other amount due on or prior to the Conversion
Date, and within 30 days of the date due for any interest payment or such other amount due after the earlier of the Conversion Date and December 31, 2011, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the
Holders of such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest, and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal and on any overdue
interest, at the rate borne by the Securities, together with any Additional Amounts thereon, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607.

If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may
institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities and
collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the
rights of the Holders by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Note Indenture or the Guarantee
or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy.

SECTION 504 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of any judicial proceeding relating to the Company, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the Securities, its property or its
creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act (were such Act to apply with respect to this Note Indenture) in order to
have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and
any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent
to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under
Section 607.

No provision of this Note Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or
accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any
such proceeding; provided,however, that the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders, vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar official and be a member of a creditors or other similar committee.

SECTION 505 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Securities.

All rights of action and claims under this Note Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall,
after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been
recovered.

SECTION 506 Application of Money Collected.

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the
Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 607; and

SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of and interest on the Securities in respect of

SECTION 507 Limitation on Suits.

At any time when there is more than one Holder of Securities, no Holder of any Security shall have any right to institute any proceeding,

inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such 60 day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities;

it being understood and intended that no one or more Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision
of this Note Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders, or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Note Indenture, except in the manner herein
provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all the Holders.

SECTION 508 Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal and
Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Note Indenture, the Holder of any Security (subject to
Section 311) shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and (subject to Section 307) interest on such Security, as applicable, on any relevant Stated Maturity expressed in such
Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date), and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, including under the Guarantee, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

SECTION 509 Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Note Indenture or the Guarantee and
such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Guarantors, the
Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last
paragraph of Section 306, no right or remedy herein or in the Guarantee conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not
prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

SECTION 511 Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event
of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article 5 or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to
time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall have the right to direct the time, method

(1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Note Indenture,

(2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and

(3) the Trustee need not follow any such direction if doing so would in its reasonable discretion either
involve it in personal liability or be unduly prejudicial to Holders not joining in such direction;

provided
further, that the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any determination with respect to any such conflict, personal liability or undue prejudice.

SECTION 513 Waiver of Past Defaults.

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (or such lesser percentage of the aggregate

(1) in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Security, or



-45-



---

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine
cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected.

Upon any such waiver,
such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Note Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

SECTION 514 Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Note Indenture or the Guarantee, or in any suit against the Trustee for
any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, a court may require any party litigant in such suit to file an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and may assess costs against any such party litigant; provided, that this
Section 514 shall not be deemed to authorize any court to require such an undertaking or to make such an assessment in any suit instituted by the Company or any Guarantor, to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any
Holder or group of Holders holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder of any Security for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of or interest on any
Security on or after the Stated Maturity expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

SECTION

Each of the Company and the Guarantors covenants (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may affect
the covenants or the performance of this Note Indenture; and each of the Company and the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder,
delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(b) In case an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Note Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

the Company or any Guarantor shall be made without withholding or deduction for any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or on behalf of Mexico,
the Netherlands, the British Virgin Islands or in the event the Company or any Guarantor appoints additional paying agents, by the jurisdictions of such additional paying agents (each a Note Taxing Jurisdiction), or any political
subdivision thereof or any authority therein or thereof (Applicable Taxes), except to the extent that such Applicable Taxes are required by a Note Taxing Jurisdiction or any such political subdivision or authority to be withheld or
deducted. In the event of any withholding or deduction for any Applicable Taxes, the Company and the Guarantors shall pay such additional amounts (Additional Amounts) as will result in receipt by the Holders of Securities on the
respective due dates of such amounts as would have been received by them had no such withholding or deduction (including for any Applicable Taxes payable in respect of Additional Amounts) been required, except that no such Additional Amounts shall
be payable with respect to any payment on a Security:

(i) to the extent that such taxes or duties are imposed
or levied by reason of such holder (or the beneficial owner) having some connection with the Note Taxing Jurisdiction other than the mere holding (or beneficial ownership) of such Securities;

(ii) to the extent that such taxes or duties are imposed on, or measured by, net income of the holder (or beneficial
owner);

(iii) in respect of which the holder (or beneficial owner) fails to comply with any certification,
identification or other reporting requirement concerning its nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Note Taxing Jurisdiction if (1) compliance is required by applicable law, regulation, administrative practice or treaty as a
precondition to exemption from all or a part of the taxes, (2) the holder (or beneficial owner) is able to comply with those requirements without undue hardship and (3) the Company has given all holders at least 30 days prior
notice that they will be required to comply with such requirements;

(iv) in respect of which the holder (or
beneficial owner) fails to surrender (where surrender is required) its Securities for payment within 30 days after the Company has made available a payment of principal or interest, provided that the Company will pay Additional Amounts
to which a holder would have been entitled had the Securities been surrendered on any day (including the last day) within such 30-day period;



-60-



---

(v) to the extent that such taxes or duties are imposed by reason of an
estate, inheritance, gift, value added, use or sales tax or any similar taxes, assessments or other governmental charges;

(vi) where such withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to
any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive; or

(vii) by or on behalf of a holder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by
presenting the relevant Securities to another paying agent in a member state of the European Union.

The Company shall provide
the Trustee, as soon as practicable, with documentation (which may consist of certified copies of such documentation) satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of Applicable Taxes in respect of which the Company has paid any Additional
Amounts. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the Holders of the Securities or the Paying Agent, as applicable, upon request therefor.

In respect of the Securities issued hereunder, at least five Business Days prior to the first date of payment of interest on the
Securities and at least five Business Days prior to each date, if any, of payment of principal or interest thereafter if there has been any change with respect to the matters set forth in the below mentioned Officers Certificate, the Company
shall furnish the Trustee and each Paying Agent with an Officers Certificate instructing the Trustee and such Paying Agent as to whether such payment of principal of or any interest on such Securities shall be made without deduction or
withholding for or on account of any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge. If any such deduction or withholding shall be required by Mexico or under the federal laws of the United States, then such certificate shall specify, by
country, the amount, if any, required to be deducted or withheld on such payment to Holders of such Securities, and the Company shall pay or cause to be paid to the Trustee or such Paying Agent Additional Amounts, if any, required by this
Section 1007. The Company agrees to indemnify the Trustee and each Paying Agent for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on their part arising out of or in
connection with actions taken or omitted by them in reliance on any Officers Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section 1007.

(b) The Company and the Guarantors shall pay all stamp and other duties, if any, which may be imposed by Mexico, the United States of
America, the Netherlands or any other applicable jurisdiction or any other governmental entity or political subdivision therein or thereof, or any taxing authority of or in any of the foregoing, with respect to the Note Indenture, the Guarantee or
the issuance of the Securities.

(c) The Company shall provide each Paying Agent and any withholding agent under relevant tax
regulations with copies of each certificate received by the Company from a Holder of a Security pursuant to the text of such Security. Each such Paying Agent and withholding agent shall retain each such certificate received by it for as long as any
Security is Outstanding and in no event for less than four years after its receipt, and for such additional period thereafter, as set forth in an Officers Certificate, as such certificate may become material in the administration of applicable
tax laws.

SECTION 1010 Indemnification of Judgment Currency.

The Company and each Guarantor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify the Trustee and any Holder of a Security against
any loss incurred by the Trustee or such Holder, as the case may be, as a result of any judgment or order being given or made for any amount due under this Note Indenture or such Security and being expressed and paid in a currency (the
Judgment Currency) other than Dollars, and as a result of any variation between (i) the rate of exchange at which the Dollar amount is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order and (ii) the
spot rate of exchange in The City of New York at which the Trustee or such Holder, as the case may be, on the date of payment of such judgment or order is able to purchase Dollars with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by the
Trustee or such Holder. If the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, such Holder agrees to pay to or for the account of the Company (with respect to payments made by the Company) and the Guarantors
(with respect to payments made by the Guarantors) such excess; provided, that such Holder shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a default by the Company or the Guarantors, as applicable in its obligations hereunder
has occurred and is continuing, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder to such obligations. The foregoing indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Company and shall continue in full force and effect
notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term spot rate of exchange shall include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, United States dollars.

SECTION 1011 Payment of Certain Issuer Expenses.

To the extent that the Company or any of the Guarantors may in any jurisdiction claim for itself or its assets immunity from a suit,
execution, attachment, whether in aid or execution, before judgment or otherwise, or other legal process in connection with this Note Indenture and the Securities and to the extent that in any jurisdiction there may be immunity attributed to the
Company, the Companys assets, the Guarantors or the Guarantors assets whether or not claimed, the Company and the Guarantors have irrevocably agreed for the benefit of the Holder not to claim, and irrevocably waive, the immunity to the
full extent permitted by law.

ARTICLE ELEVEN

Redemption of Securities

SECTION 1101 Right of Redemption.

(a) The Securities may not be redeemed at the election of the Company except in accordance with the provisions of this Article.

(b) The Securities will be redeemable, at the option of the Company, on December 31, 2011, and on each interest payment
date thereafter (or, if not a Business Day, on the preceding Business Day), in whole or in part, at par together with all accrued and unpaid interest, including deferred interest, provided that the Company as a condition to redemption,
convert the interest rate on the Securities from the Yen Rate to the Dollar Fixed Rate as of the Interest Payment Date by written notice to the Holders, the Debenture Trustee, the Trustee and the Swap Counterparty no less than 10 Business Days prior
to the Interest Payment Date; in the case of partial redemption the outstanding principal amount of the Securities immediately after such redemption shall not be less than U.S$150,000,000 million; provided further that no redemption
shall be effective on any payment date (and such payment date shall not constitute the Conversion Date) unless C5 Capital (SPV) Limited shall have received from the Company on or prior to such payment date any applicable Conversion Payments with
respect to such conversion.

(c) The Securities will be redeemable, at the option of the Company, within 90 days of the
occurrence of a Change of Control Event, in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) par and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments on the Securities calculated
(1) assuming a final maturity of December 31, 2011, (2) without giving effect to any increase in interest rates as a result of the Change of Control Event, and (3) discounted to the Redemption Date at a rate equal to the
then-current yield to maturity of treasuries with a comparable maturity plus a margin equal to 1.70% per annum, plus in each of cases (i) and (ii) above accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The Securities will not otherwise be redeemed by the Company. As a condition to any redemption prior to December 31, 2011, the
Company must first convert the interest rate on the Securities from the Yen Rate to the Dollar Fixed Rate and pay any applicable Conversion Payment with respect to such conversion in accordance with Section 315.

SECTION 1102 Notice of Redemption.

Notice of redemption shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed by the Company to the Trustee not less than 45 days
nor more than 60 days prior to the proposed Redemption Date (unless a shorter period of time is agreed upon) and to each Holder and the Trustee will give a corresponding notice to the holders of the Debentures, at his address appearing in the
Security Register. Any such notice of redemption is irrevocable and will be given as described below. If the redemption price in respect of any Security is improperly withheld or refused and is not paid by the Company or any Guarantor, interest on
the Securities will continue to be payable until the Redemption Price is paid in full.

All notices of redemption shall state:

(1) the Redemption Date,

(2) the Redemption Price and amount of accrued interest, if any,

(3) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price and any accrued interest will become due and payable upon each
Security to be redeemed and that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, and

(4) the
place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price and any accrued interest.

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Companys
request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, and such notice, when given to the Holders, shall be irrevocable.

Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities
which are to be redeemed on that date.

SECTION 1104 Securities Payable on Redemption Date.

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and
payable at the Redemption Price herein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such
Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; provided,however, that installments of interest whose
Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and
the provisions of Section 306.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for
redemption, the principal shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Security.

ARTICLE
TWELVE

Guarantee of the Securities

SECTION 1201 Guarantee.

Subject to the provisions of this Article Twelve, Article Eight and Article Nine, each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally irrevocably
and unconditionally guarantees, on an unsecured basis, to each Holder of a Security authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its Successors, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Note Indenture, the
Securities or the obligations of the Company or any other Guarantors to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder, that: (a) the principal of and interest on the Securities (including any Additional Amounts) will be duly and punctually
paid in full when due, whether at Maturity, by acceleration, call for redemption, purchase or otherwise, and all obligations of the Company or the Guarantors to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder (including amounts due the Trustee
under Section 607 hereof) or under the Securities (including fees, expenses or other disbursements) will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and (b) in case of any extension of time
of payment or renewal of any Securities or any of such other obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at maturity, by acceleration, call for
redemption, purchase or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by the Guarantors, the Guaranteed Obligations). The guarantees of the Guarantors under this Article Twelve are herein referred to as the Guarantee. Failing
payment when due of any amount so guaranteed, or failing performance of any other obligation of the Company to the Holders, for whatever reason, each Guarantor will be obligated to pay, or to perform or cause the performance of, the same
immediately. An Event of Default under this Note Indenture or the Securities shall constitute an event of default under this Guarantee, and shall entitle the Holders of Securities or the Trustee to accelerate the obligations of the Guarantors
hereunder in the same manner and to the same extent as the obligations of the Company.

The Guarantors agree to pay any and
all fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under this Article Twelve with respect to the Guarantors.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Guarantee guarantees, to the extent provided herein, the payment of all amounts
that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Company under this Note Indenture or the Securities but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or
similar proceeding involving the Company.



-67-



---

No stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator, past, present or future, of any
Guarantor, as such, shall have any personal liability under this Guarantee by reason of his, her or its status as such stockholder, officer, director, employee or incorporator.

The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not
impair the rights of the Holders under this Guarantee.

SECTION 1202 Execution and Delivery of Guarantee.

The Guarantee to be endorsed on the Securities shall include the terms of the Guarantees set forth in this Article Twelve and any other
terms that may be set forth in the form established pursuant to Section 205. The Guarantors hereby agree to execute the Guarantee in the form established pursuant to Section 205, to be endorsed on each Security authenticated and delivered
by the Trustee.

The Guarantee shall be executed on behalf of each Guarantor by any one of the individuals who may sign an
Officers Certificate on its behalf. The signature of any such Person on the Guarantee may be manual or facsimile.

A
Guarantee bearing the manual or facsimile signature of an individual who was at any time the proper officer of a Guarantor shall bind such Guarantor, notwithstanding that such individual has ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and
delivery of the Security on which such Guarantee is endorsed or did not hold such office at the date of such Guarantee.

The
delivery of any Security by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Guarantee endorsed thereon on behalf of the respective Guarantor. The Guarantors hereby agree that their respective Guarantee
set forth in Section 1201 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any failure to endorse a Guarantee on any Security.

SECTION 1203 Obligations of the Guarantors Unconditional.

Nothing contained in this Article Twelve or elsewhere in this Note Indenture or in any Security is intended to or shall impair, as
between the Guarantors and the Holders and the Trustee, the obligation of each Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders and the Trustee the principal of and interest (including Additional Amounts) on the Securities (and
to the Trustee amounts due under Section 607) as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Guarantee, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising all
remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon Default under this Note Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not affect the liability of any
Guarantor hereunder:

(a) the lack of validity, regularity or enforceability of this Note Indenture or the Securities with
respect to the Company or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;



-68-



---

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of any of
the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Note Indenture;

(c) any
amendment or modification of or deletion from or addition or supplement to or other change in the Guarantee, the Note Indenture or the Securities or any other instrument or agreement applicable to any of the parties to the Guarantee, the Note
Indenture or the Securities;

(d) any furnishing or acceptance of any security or any guarantee or other liability of any
Subsidiary or any other party, or any release of any security or any guarantee or other liability of any Subsidiary or any other party, for the Guaranteed Obligations, or the failure of any security or any guarantee or other liability of any
Subsidiary or any other party or the failure of any Person to perfect any interest in any collateral;

(e) any failure,
omission or delay on the part of the Company, to conform or comply with any term of the Note Indenture or the Securities or any other instrument or agreement referred to in paragraph (a) above, including, without limitation, failure to give
notice to the Guarantors or the Trustee of the occurrence of an Event of Default;

(f) any waiver of the payment, performance
or observance of any of the obligations, conditions, covenants or agreements contained in the Guarantee, the Note Indenture or the Securities, or any other waiver, consent, extension, indulgence, compromise, settlement, release or other action or
inaction under or in respect of the Guarantee, the Note Indenture or the Securities or any other instrument or agreement referred to in paragraph (a) above or any obligation or liability of the Company, or any exercise or non-exercise of any
right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of any such instrument or agreement or any such obligation or liability;

(g) any failure, omission or delay on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities to enforce, assert, exercise or continue
exercising any right, power or remedy conferred on it in the Guarantee or the Note Indenture, or any such failure, omission or delay on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities in connection with the Guarantee, the Note Indenture or the
Securities, or any other action on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities;

(h) the assignment of any right,
title or interest of the Trustee or any Holder in this Note Indenture or the Securities to any other Person;

(i) any
voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency, concurso mercantil, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, assignment for the benefit of creditors, receivership, liquidation or similar proceedings with respect to the Company, any
Guarantor or any other Person or any of their respective properties or creditors, or any action taken by any trustee, receiver or similar officer or by any court in any such proceeding;

(j) any limitation on the liability or obligations of the Company or any other Person under the Guarantee, the Note Indenture or the
Securities, or any partial discharge, cancellation or unenforceability of the Guarantee, the Note Indenture or the Securities or any other agreement or instrument referred to in paragraph (c) above or any term hereof, to the extent not mutually
agreed upon by the parties hereto;



-69-



---

(k) any merger or consolidation of the Company or any Guarantor into or with any other
corporation or any sale, lease or transfer of any of the assets of the Company or any Guarantor to any other Person;

(l) any
change in the ownership of any shares of capital stock of the Guarantors, or any change in the corporate relationship between the Company and the Guarantors, or any termination of such relationship, or any change in the corporate existence,
structure, or ownership of the Company;

(m) any release or discharge, by operation of law, of any Guarantor from the
performance or observance of any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Guarantee, the Note Indenture or the Securities;

(n) any action, failure, omission or delay on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities that may impede any Guarantor from
acquiring or subrogating such Holders or Trustees rights or benefits; or

(o) any other occurrence, circumstance,
happening or event whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, whether foreseen or unforeseen, and any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal defense or discharge of the liabilities of a Guarantor or that might
otherwise limit recourse against the Guarantors; it being the intent of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by payment of all amounts owing pursuant to this Note Indenture or the Securities.

The Guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment or performance with respect
to any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Trustee, any Holder or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance
had not been made or occurred. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded or must otherwise be returned, the Guaranteed Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded or
returned. The obligations of the Guarantors under the Guarantee shall not be subject to reduction, termination or other impairment by any set-off, recoupment, counterclaim or defense or for any other reason.

SECTION 1204 Waivers.

Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(a) promptness, demand for payment, diligence, presentment, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the
Guaranteed Obligations and the Guarantee;

(b) any requirement that the Trustee, any Holder or any other Person protect,
secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right, sue or take any action against the Company or any other Person, or obtain any relief pursuant to this Note Indenture or pursue any other available remedy prior
to making a claim against any Guarantor hereunder;



-70-



---

(c) all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or
relating to this Note Indenture or the Securities;

(d) filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy
of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest or notice with respect to such Security or the Indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever;

(e) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by the Trustee or any Holder that in any
manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects its subrogation, contribution or reimbursement rights or other rights to proceed against the Company or any other Person;

(f) any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Company first be used as payment of the Companys or the
Guarantors obligations hereunder prior to any amounts being claimed from or paid by such Guarantor hereunder; or

(g)
any duty on the part of the Trustee or any Holder to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operation or condition of the Company and its assets now known or hereafter known by the Trustee or such Holder.

SECTION 1205 Waiver of Subrogation and Contribution.

Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any claim or other right that it may now or hereafter acquire against the Company that arises
from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantors obligations under this Guarantee and this Note Indenture, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution,
indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities against the Company, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including,
without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Company, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or Security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to
any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Securities shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall have been deemed to have been paid to such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Holders of
the Securities, and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit of such Holders to be credited and applied upon the Securities, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Note Indenture. Each Guarantor acknowledges
that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Note Indenture and that the waiver set forth in this Section 1205 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

ANNEX A

Calculation of Conversion Payments and Conversion Credits

With respect to the Conversion Date (whether it has occurred or is expected to occur at the time of calculation), the Calculation Agent
will determine whether a Conversion Payment or a Conversion Credit Reference Amount applies. If a Conversion Credit Reference Amount applies and the principal amount of the Dual-Currency Notes has not become, as of the Conversion Date, due and

For the purposes of this Annex A:

following terms:

(i) no exchange of principal;

(ii) a term commencing on the date of issuance of the Dual-Currency Notes and ending on December 31, 2011;

(iii) the Calculation Agent obligated to pay an amount in U.S. Dollars equal to the semi-annual coupon on the Debentures, applied to the
Dollar principal amount of the Debentures, on each payment date for the Debentures;

(iv) the counterparty obligated to pay an
amount in Japanese Yen equal to the semi-annual coupon on the Dual-Currency Notes, applied to the Yen Equivalent Principal Amount of the Dual-Currency Notes, on each payment date for the Dual-Currency Notes;

(v) the parties payment obligations under the Benchmark Swap ceasing as of the payment date for the Debentures immediately prior to
the date on which the Conditions to Anticipated Swap Termination are deemed satisfied; and

(vi) upon early termination for
any reason other than the satisfaction of the Conditions to Anticipated Swap Termination, the termination payment due to the Calculation Agent or the counterparty, as applicable, calculated based on the total gains and losses and costs incurred upon
termination, including any loss of bargain, costs of funding, or, without duplication, any loss or cost or gain incurred as a result of obtaining or reestablishing any hedge or related trading position.

Conversion Credit means the amount the Calculation Agent determines to be the amount of investment proceeds in U.S.
Dollars that would be available on each Conversion Credit Application Date were the Conversion Credit Reference Amount invested at the direction of the Calculation Agent (and on a date determined by the Calculation Agent but not more than 15
business days after the Conversion Date) in Permitted Investments, which Permitted Investments were designed to yield (without provision for credit losses) an equal amount of investment proceeds in U.S. Dollars on each such Conversion Credit
Application Date.

business days prior to that date. If the Conversion Date occurs after the
15thbusiness day prior to December 31, 2011, no
Conversion Credits shall apply.

Conversion Credit Reference Amount means the amount, if any, determined by
the Calculation Agent to be equal to the total amount that would be payable by the party obligated to pay U.S. Dollars under the Benchmark Swap (as defined below) upon its early termination on the applicable Note Conversion Date.

would be payable by the party obligated to pay Japanese Yen under the Benchmark Swap (as defined below) upon its early termination on the applicable Note Conversion Date.

amounts due under any Reference Obligation have been materially reduced by redemption or otherwise (other than due to any scheduled redemption, amortization or prepayments), (B) any Reference Obligation is an Underlying Obligation with a
Qualifying Guarantee of a Reference Entity and, other than due to the existence or occurrence of a CEMEX Credit Event, the Qualifying Guarantee is no longer a valid and binding obligation of such Reference Entity enforceable in accordance with its

parties) identify one or more Obligations to replace such Reference Obligation.

(b) Any Substitute Reference Obligation shall be an
Obligation that (1) ranks pari passu (or, if no such Obligation exists, then, at the Calculation Agents option, an Obligation that ranks senior) in priority of payment with such Reference Obligation (with the ranking in priority of
payment of such Reference Obligation being determined as of the later of (A) the Effective Date and (B) the date on which such Reference Obligation was issued or incurred and not reflecting any change to such ranking in priority of payment
after such later date), (2) preserves the economic equivalent, as closely as practicable as determined by the Calculation Agent in consultation with the parties, of the delivery and payment obligations of the parties pursuant to this
Transaction and (3) is an obligation of a Reference Entity (either directly or as provider of a Qualifying Guarantee). The Substitute Reference Obligation identified by the Calculation Agent shall, without further action, replace such Reference
Obligation.

or other similar identifier will not, in and of itself, convert such Reference Obligation into a different Obligation.
