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

Subject
to this Clause 21, a Lender (the Existing Lender) may:



| | (a) | assign any of its rights and benefits in respect of any Drawdown; or
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | transfer any of its rights, benefits and obligations in respect of any Commitment or any Drawdown,
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to another bank or financial institution of those referred to in article 2 of Spanish Law 2/1981, dated 25 March, on the Mortgage Market (the
New Lender), provided thatno Lender may transfer or assign any of its rights, benefits or obligations under the Finance Documents to any U.S. Lender or enter into a sub-participation agreement in respect of such rights,
benefits or obligations with a U.S. Lender, and provided that the prior consent of the Borrower has been obtained, except if the New Lender is one of the G12 Lenders, in which case the Borrowers consent shall be understood to be already
granted.



|21.2 | Conditions of assignment or transfer
|---- | ------------------------------------



| | (a) | The Borrower must be notified no later than one Business Day prior to the proposed date of any assignment or transfer pursuant to this Clause 21.1 (Assignments and transfers by

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

Parties as it would have been under if it was a Lender;
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | on the satisfaction of the Facility Agent with the results of all know your client or other checks relating to the identity of any person that it is required by
law to carry out in relation to such assignment to a New Lender, the completion of which the Facility Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender; and
| | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | if the procedure set out in Clause 21.5 (Procedure for transfer or assignment) is complied with.
| | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | --- | ---



| | (i) | a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights, benefits or obligations under the Finance Documents; and

(Tax Gross-up and Indemnities) or Clause 13 (Increased Costs),
| | ---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



- 49 -



---

then the New Lender is entitled to receive payment under those Clauses only to the same extent as the
Existing Lender would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred.

to payments of principal or interest on the Utilisations) provided that no such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from any of its obligations under this Agreement.

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



| | (b) | the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Finance Document and the Transaction Security and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into,

|23.14 | Reference Banks
|----- | ---------------

If a Reference Bank (or an
affiliate of a Reference Bank) becomes a Lender, the Facility Agent shall (in consultation with the Borrower) appoint another Reference Bank that is not a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender. In the event that any of the Reference Banks takes part in
a merger, is wound up or ceases to exist for any reason, as well as if for any circumstance it acquires the status of Lender under this Agreement, the Facility Agent will designate the entity that must occupy the place of the former, communicating
such appointment to the Lenders and to the Borrower as soon as possible.



|23.15 | Deduction from amounts payable by the Facility Agent
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------

If any Party owes an amount to the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents, the Facility Agent may, after giving notice to that Party, deduct an amount not exceeding that amount from any payment to that Party which the Facility Agent
would otherwise be obliged to make under the Finance Documents and apply the amount deducted in or towards satisfaction of the amount owed. For the purposes of the Finance Documents that Party shall be regarded as having received any amount so

|25.4 | Reversal of redistribution
|---- | --------------------------

If any part of the
Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:

pay to the Facility Agent for account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion
of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay); and
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (b) | A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal
or arbitration proceedings, if:

| | (i) | it notified that other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and

| | (a) | Without prejudice to the enforcement of the Transaction Security in the courts corresponding to the place where any of the Charged Property is located, the Parties agree that the
courts of Madrid (capital) have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (including a dispute relating to non-contractual obligations arising from or in connection with this Agreement or a
dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement) (a Dispute).
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | The Parties agree that the courts of Madrid (capital) are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | This Clause 35.1 is for the benefit of the Finance Parties only. As a result, no Finance Party shall be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts
with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law or regulation, the Finance Parties may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|36. | SUMMARY OF THE AGREEMENT
|--- | ------------------------

A summary of this
Agreement has been elaborated in order to be incorporated as annex to the Transaction Security and to be filed with the Property Registries corresponding to the Charged Property (the Summary). The Parties acknowledge that, to the
bests of their knowledge, the Summary accurately reflects the main terms of this Agreement. Nonetheless, the Parties agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail with regard to those aspects not foreseen under the Summary
and/or those aspects set out under the Summary that may not be consistent with this Agreement. In addition, the Parties agree that any of them may at any time request a sworn translation of this Agreement and carry out the necessary actions in order
for it to be registered with the relevant Property Registries, the cost of which shall be borne by the Borrower. The Parties undertake to cooperate amongst themselves in order to facilitate the translation and the entry into the relevant Property
Registries.

SCHEDULE 8

PROCEEDINGS PENDING OR THREATENED

As of 31 December 2008



|32. | Environmental Matters
|--- | ---------------------

United States

As of 31 December 2008, CEMEX, Inc. and its subsidiaries had accrued liabilities specifically relating to environmental matters in the aggregate amount of
approximately U.S.$43 million. The environmental matters relate to (i) the disposal of various materials, in accordance with past industry practice, which might be categorized as hazardous substances or wastes, and (ii) the cleanup of
sites used or operated by CEMEX, Inc., including discontinued operations, regarding the disposal of hazardous substances or wastes, either individually or jointly with other parties. Most of the proceedings are in the preliminary stage, and a final
resolution might take several years. For purposes of recording the provision, CEMEX, Inc. considers that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable, whether or not claims have been
asserted, and without giving effect to any possible future recoveries. The ultimate cost that might be incurred to resolve these environmental issues cannot be assured until all environmental studies, investigations, remediation work, and
negotiations with or litigation against potential sources of recovery have been completed.

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



- 87 -



---

from our Florida operations. Any adverse impacts on the Florida economy arising from the cessation or significant restriction of quarrying operations in the
Lake Belt could also have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

Europe

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

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

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

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

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



- 88 -



---

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

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

On 29 May 2007, the Polish government filed an appeal before the Court of First Instance in Luxemburg regarding the European Commissions rejection of the
initial version of the Polish NAP. The Court has denied Polands request for a quick path verdict in the case, keeping the case in the regular proceeding path, therefore, the Polish government has started to prepare Polish internal rules on
division of allowance at the level already accepted by the European Commission. Seven major Polish cement producers, representing 98% of Polish cement production (including CEMEX Polska), have also filed seven separate appeals before the Court of
First Instance regarding the European Commissions rejection. On 29 September 2008 the Court of the First Instance issued an order rejecting CEMEX Polskas appeal without going into the merit of the case. As of 31 December 2008
the final version of the Polish NAP has not been cleared by the Commission; CEMEX has not determined the impact this may have on CEMEXs position in the country.



|33. | Tax Matters
|--- | -----------

Philippines

As of 31 December 2008, the Philippine Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR), had assessed APO, Solid, IQAC, ALQC and CSPI, our operating subsidiaries in the Philippines,
for deficiency taxes covering taxable years 1998-2005 amounting to a total of approximately 1,994 million Philippine Pesos (approximately U.S.$41.96 million as of 31 December 2008, based on an exchange rate of Philippine Pesos 47.52 to
U.S.$1.00, which was the Philippine Peso/Dollar exchange rate on 31 December 2008 as published by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, the central bank of the Republic of the Philippines).

The majority of the tax assessments result primarily from the disallowance of APOs income tax holiday incentives for taxable years 1999 to 2001 (approximately
Philippine Pesos 1,078 million or U.S.$22.68 million as of 31 December 2008, based on an exchange rate of Philippine Pesos 47.52 to U.S.$1.00). We have contested the BIRs assessment, arising from the disallowance of the ITH
incentive, with the Court of Tax Appeals (CTA). The initial Division ruling of the CTA was unfavorable, but is subject to further appeal with the CTA as a whole. The assessment is now currently on appeal with the CTA En Banc. A motion was filed with
the CTA, requesting the court to hold APO totally not liable for alleged income tax liabilities for all the years covered and to this end cancel and withdraw APOs deficiency income tax assessments for taxable years 1999, 2000 and 2001 on the
basis of APOs availment of the tax amnesty described below. As of 31 December 2008, resolution on the aforementioned motion is still pending.

|34. | CEMEX Venezuelan Nationalization
|--- | --------------------------------

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

CEMEX Venezuela and the Government did not reach agreement by the August 17 2008 deadline, and on August 18 2008 the Expropriation Decree was issued by the President of Venezuela, with PDVSA appointed to conduct the expropriation
proceedings. Although these proceedings had not yet commenced, PDVSA officials headed a group of PDVSA workers, with the support of the public force, to take over all the facilities of CEMEX Venezuela on August 17 2008. Since no agreement has
been reached with the Venezuelan Government as to the compensation to be paid, the Dutch companies that control CEMEX Venezuela filed an arbitration request before the International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes against the
Government of Venezuela, which request has been registered and the tribunal is in the process of being formed.

As of 31 December 2007, CEMEX
Venezuela, S.A.C.A. was the holding entity of several of CEMEXs investments in the region, including CEMEXs operations in the Dominican Republic and Panama, as well as CEMEXs minority investment in Trinidad & Tobago. In
the wake of statements by the Government of Venezuela about the nationalization of assets in Venezuela, in April 2008, CEMEX concluded the transfer of all material non-Venezuelan investments to Cemex España, S.A. for approximately U.S.$355
million plus U.S.$112 million of net debt, having distributed all accrued profits from the non-Venezuelan investments to the stockholders of CEMEX Venezuela amounting to approximately U.S.$132 million. At this time, the net impact or the outcome of
the nationalization on CEMEXs consolidated financial results cannot be reasonably estimated. As of 31 December 2008, the net assets of CEMEXs Venezuelan operations under Mexican FRS were approximately US$451.7 million. Since August
2008, CEMEX no longer consolidates the financial results of CEMEX Venezuela.

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



- 90 -



---

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



|35. | Other Legal Proceedings
|--- | -----------------------

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

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



- 91 -



---

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

During November 4, 5 and 6, 2008, officers of the European Commission, assisted by local officials, conducted an unannounced inspection at CEMEX offices in the
United Kingdom and Germany. It is understood that Commission officials carried out unannounced inspections at the premises of other companies active in the cement and related products industry in several member states. The Commission alleges that
CEMEX may have participated in anti competitive agreements and/or concerted practices in breach of Article 81 of the EC Treaty and/or Article 53 of the EEA Agreement and abusive conduct in breach of Article 82 of the EC Treaty and/or Article 54 of
the EEA Agreement. The allegations extend to several markets worldwide, including in particular the European Economic Area; if those allegations are substantiated, significant penalties may be imposed on the subsidiaries of CEMEX operating in such
markets. CEMEX fully co-operated and will continue to co-operate with the Commission officials in connection with the inspection.

After an extended
consultation period, in April 2006, the cities of Katela and Solin in Croatia published their respective Master (physical) Plans defining the development zones within their respective municipalities, adversely impacting the mining concession
granted to Dalmacijacement, our subsidiary in Croatia, by the Government of Croatia in September 2005. During the consultation period, Dalmacijacement submitted comments and suggestions to the Master Plans, but these were not taken into account or
incorporated into the Master Plan by Katela and Solin. Most of these comments and suggestions were intended to protect and preserve the rights of Dalmacijacement ́s mining concession granted by the Government of Croatia in September 2005.
Immediately after publication of the Master Plans, Dalmacijacement filed a series of lawsuits and legal actions before the local and federal courts to protect its acquired rights under the mining concessions. The legal actions taken and filed by
Dalmacijacement were as follows: (i) on 17 May 2006, a constitutional appeal before the constitutional court in Zagreb, seeking a declaration by the court concerning Dalmacijacements constitutional claim for decrease and obstruction
of rights earned by investment, and seeking prohibition of implementation of the Master Plans, the appeal is currently under review by the court in Croatia, and it is expected that these proceedings will continue for several years before resolution;
(ii) on 17 May 2006, a possessory action against the cities of Katela and Solin seeking the enactment of interim measures prohibiting implementation of the Master Plans and including a request to implead the Republic of Croatia into
the proceeding on our side. The municipal court in Solin issued a first instance judgment dismissing our possessory action. We filed an appeal against that judgment. The



- 92 -



---

appeal has been resolved by the Solin County Court, affirming the judgment and rendering it final. The Municipal Court in Katela has issued a first
instance judgment dismissing our possessory action. We filed an appeal against said judgment, which has since been resolved by the Katela Country Court, affirming the judgment and rendering it final; (iii) on 17 May 2006, an
administrative proceeding before the State Lawyer, seeking a declaration from the Government of Croatia confirming that Dalmacijacement acquired rights under the mining concessions. Dalmacijacement received State Lawyers opinion which confirms
the Dalmacijacements acquired rights according to the previous decisions (old concession). The Administrative Court in Croatia has ruled in favor of Dalmacijacement, validating the legality of the mining concession granted to
Dalmacijacement by the Government of Croatia. This decision is final. Currently it is difficult for Dalmacijacement to ascertain the approximate economic impact of these measures by Katela and Solin.

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