2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in the Relevant Member State) and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State; and the expression 2010 PD
Amending Directive means Directive 2010/73/EU.

5. Agreements. The Company and the Note Guarantors agree, jointly
and severally, in each case with each Initial Purchaser that:

(a) The Company will furnish to each Initial Purchaser and to
counsel for the Initial Purchasers, without charge, during the Distribution Period (as defined in Section 5(c) below), as many copies of the materials contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum and any amendments and
supplements thereto as they may reasonably request.

(b) The Company will prepare a final term sheet, containing solely a
description of final terms of the Securities and the offering thereof, in the form approved by you attached as Schedule II hereto (the Final Term Sheet).

(c) The Company will not amend or supplement the Disclosure Package or the Final Memorandum other than by filing documents under the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference therein, without the
prior written consent of the Representatives, which consent, following the Closing Date, may not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that prior to the earlier of (i) the completion of the distribution of the Securities by
the Initial Purchasers (as determined by the Representatives and communicated to the Company) and (ii) twelve (12) months after the date of the Final Memorandum (the Distribution Period), the Company will not file any document
under the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package or the Final Memorandum unless, prior to such proposed filing, the Company has furnished the Representatives with a copy of such document for their review and the
Representatives have not reasonably objected to the filing of such document. The Company will promptly advise the Representatives when any document filed under the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package or the Final
Memorandum shall have been filed with the Commission.

(d) If at any time during the Distribution Period, any event occurs as
a result of which the Disclosure Package or the Final Memorandum, as then amended or supplemented, would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made or the circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, or if it should be necessary to amend or supplement the Disclosure Package or the Final Memorandum to comply with applicable law, the Company will
promptly (i) notify the Representatives of any such event; (ii) subject to the requirements of Section 5(c), prepare an amendment or supplement that will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance; and
(iii) supply any supplemented or amended Disclosure Package or Final Memorandum to the several Initial Purchasers and counsel for the Initial Purchasers without charge in such quantities as they may reasonably request.

(e) Without the prior written consent of the Representatives, the Company and each of the Note Guarantors will not give to any
prospective purchaser of the Securities any written information concerning the offering of the Securities other than materials contained in

the Disclosure Package, the Final Memorandum or any other offering materials prepared by or with the prior written consent of the Representatives.

(f) The Company will arrange, if necessary, for the qualification of the Securities for sale by the Initial Purchasers under the laws of
such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate (including Japan and certain provinces of Canada) and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the sale of the Securities; provided that in no event shall the
Company be obligated to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to service of process in suits, other than those arising out of the offering or sale of the Securities,
in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject. The Company will promptly advise the Representatives of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any
jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose.

(g) As required under Article 7 of the
Mexican Securities Market Law (Ley del Mercado de Valores), the Company will, no later than one Business Day after the Closing Date, notify the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de
Valores) of the offering of the Securities as described herein and in the Disclosure Package and in the Final Memorandum.

(h) The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Affiliates to, resell any Securities that have been acquired by any of them,
except (i) in a transaction registered under the Act or (ii) in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements under the Act if such transaction does not cause the holding periods under Rule 144 under the Act to be extended for
other holders of Securities.

(i) None of the Company, its Affiliates, or any person acting on its or their behalf will,
directly or indirectly, make offers or sales of any security, or solicit offers to buy any security, under circumstances that would require the registration of the Securities under the Act.

(j) None of the Company, its Affiliates, or any person acting on its or their behalf will engage in any directed selling efforts (within
the meaning of Regulation S) with respect to the Securities; and each of them will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S.

(k) None of the Company, its Affiliates, or any person acting on its or their behalf will engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising (within the meaning of Regulation D) in
connection with any offer or sale of the Securities in the United States.

(l) For so long as any of the Securities are
outstanding and are restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Act, the Company, during any period in which it is not subject to and in compliance with Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or it is not
exempt from such reporting requirements pursuant to and in compliance with Rule 12g3-2(b) under the Exchange Act, will provide to each holder of such restricted securities and to each prospective purchaser (as designated by such holder) of such
restricted securities, upon the request of such holder or prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act. This covenant is intended to be for the benefit of the holders,



14



---

and the prospective purchasers designated by such holders, from time to time of such restricted securities.

(m) The Company will cooperate with the Representatives and use its best efforts to permit the Securities to be eligible for clearance and settlement through DTC, Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V.
(Euroclear) and Clearstream Banking, S.A. (Clearstream), as applicable, and any other relevant clearing system.

(n) Each of the Securities will bear, to the extent applicable, the legend contained in Transfer Restrictions in the Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum for the time period
and upon the other terms stated therein.

(o) Neither the Company nor any of the Note Guarantors will, for a period of 45 days
following the Execution Time, without the prior written consent of BAML, JP Morgan and RBS, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of or enter into any transaction which is
designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) by the Company or any of the Note Guarantors or any person in privity
with the Company or any of the Note Guarantors, directly or indirectly, or announce the offering of, any debt securities in the international capital markets that are issued or guaranteed by the Company or any of the Note Guarantors (other than the
Securities). Provided, however, that the foregoing will not restrict the ability of the Company or any of the Note Guarantors to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of or announce an offering of securities, the proceeds of
which are used to fund the repurchase or retirement of the Companys perpetual debentures or the CEMEX España Euro Notes, an offer to exchange new securities for the Companys perpetual debentures or the CEMEX España Euro
Notes, an offering of certificados bursátiles in the local Mexican market and to enter into securitization transactions.

(p) The Company will not take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to, or that has constituted or that might reasonably be expected to, cause or result, under the Exchange Act or otherwise, in
stabilization or manipulation of the price of any security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of the Securities.

(q) The Company will, for a period of twelve months following the Execution Time, furnish to the Representatives (i) all reports or
other communications (financial or other) generally made available to its shareholders, and deliver such reports and communications to the Representatives as soon as they are available, unless such documents are furnished to or filed with the
Commission or any securities exchange on which any class of securities of the Company is listed and generally made available to the public and (ii) such additional information concerning the business and financial condition of the Company as
the Representatives may from time to time reasonably request (such statements to be on a consolidated basis to the extent the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries are consolidated in reports furnished to its shareholders).

(r) The Company will comply with all applicable securities and other laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and use its best efforts to



15



---

cause the Companys directors and officers, in their capacities as such, to comply with such laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act.

(s) The Company and the Note Guarantors agree, jointly and severally, to pay the costs and expenses relating to the
following matters: (i) the preparation of the Indenture and the issuance of the Securities and the fees of the Trustee; (ii) the preparation, printing or reproduction of the materials contained in the Disclosure Package and the Final
Memorandum and each amendment or supplement to either of them; (iii) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery (including postage, air freight charges and charges for counting and packaging) of such copies of the materials contained in the
Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum, and all amendments or supplements to either of them, as may, in each case, be reasonably requested for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities; (iv) the preparation, printing,
authentication, issuance and delivery of the Securities; (v) any stamp or transfer taxes in connection with the original issuance and sale of the Securities; (vi) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery of this Agreement, any blue sky

registration and qualification); (viii) the transportation and other expenses incurred by or on behalf of each of the Companys representatives in connection with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Securities; (ix) the
fees and expenses of the Companys accountants and the fees and expenses of counsel (including local and special counsel) for the Company; (x) fees and expenses incurred in connection with listing the Securities on the Irish Stock
Exchange; (xi) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the rating of the Securities by Standard & Poors and Fitch Ratings; and (xii) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance by the Company of its
obligations hereunder.

(t) The Company and the Note Guarantors agree, jointly and severally, to reimburse the
Representatives, on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, for all their reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the sale of the Securities provided for herein (including, without limitation, reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of legal
advisors as to U.S. and Mexican law for the Initial Purchasers). The reimbursement obligations of the Company in respect of the legal advisors for the Initial Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5(t) and Section 7 hereof will be limited to
U.S.$200,000 (excluding reimbursements in respect of disbursements and expenses of such legal advisors).

(u) The Company will
apply the aggregate net proceeds from the offering of the Securities in the manner specified in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum under the heading Use of Proceeds.

6. Conditions to the Obligations of the Initial Purchasers. The obligations of the Initial Purchasers to purchase the Securities
shall be subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Note Guarantors contained herein at the Execution Time and the Closing Date, to the accuracy of the statements of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
made in any certificates pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance



16

(e) The Company shall have
requested and caused GHR Rechtsanwälte AG, special Swiss counsel to the Company, to furnish to the Representatives its opinion, subject to certain applicable exceptions, qualifications and conditions acceptable to the Representatives, dated as
of the Closing Date and addressed to the Representatives, substantially in the form of Schedule VII attached hereto.

(f) The Company shall have requested and caused Arthur Cox, special Irish counsel for the Company, to furnish such opinion or opinions,
dated the Closing Date, providing, among other related matters as the Representatives may reasonably require, that the issuance and sale of the Securities as provided in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum, constitutes a public offering
under the laws of the Republic of Ireland, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters; provided, however, that, prior to the delivery of such opinion
on the Closing Date, BAML agrees to furnish a representation letter to Arthur Cox to the effect that it has offered the Securities to at least five persons within the Republic of Ireland.

(g) The Representatives shall have received from Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP and Ritch Mueller, S.C., counsel for the
Initial Purchasers, such opinion or opinions, dated the Closing Date and addressed to the Representatives, with respect to the issuance and sale of the Securities, the Indenture, the Disclosure Package, the Final Memorandum (as amended or
supplemented at the Closing Date) and other related matters as the



17



---

Representatives may reasonably require, and the Company shall have furnished to such counsel such documents as they request for the purpose of enabling them to pass upon such matters.

(h) The Company and each Note Guarantor shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate, signed by an executive officer of each
of the Company and the Note Guarantors, dated as of the Closing Date, substantially in the form of Schedule VIII attached hereto.

(i) At the Execution Time and at the Closing Date, the Company shall have requested and caused KPMG Cárdenas Dosal, S.C. to furnish to the Representatives, letters, dated respectively as of the

thereunder substantially in the form of Schedule IX attached hereto.

(j) Any and all applicable amendments,
supplements or modifications to the Financing Agreement, any of the Transaction Security Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement and any other documents derived therefrom and in connection therewith, as applicable, shall have been made and shall
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations to each party thereof.

(k) The Trustee shall be entitled to all rights and
benefits provided in the Intercreditor Agreement as an Additional Notes Trustee (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) and the Initial Purchasers, and/or each of the subsequent holders of the Securities, shall be entitled to all
rights and benefits provided therein as Additional Notes Creditors (as such term is defined in the Intercreditor Agreement).

(l) Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Disclosure Package (exclusive of
any amendment or supplement thereto after the Execution Time) and the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto after the Execution Time), there shall not have been (i) any change, increase or decrease specified in the
letter or letters referred to in paragraph (i) of this Section 6; or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), prospects, earnings, business or
properties of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any
amendment or supplement thereto after the Execution Time), the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or
inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto after the Execution Time).

(m) The Securities shall be eligible for clearance and settlement through DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, as applicable, and any other

---

rating. For the avoidance of doubt, any reiteration or reissuance of the outlook of a rating agency that was in place at the Execution Time shall not be considered a notice of an intended or
potential decrease in a rating.

(o) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such
further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request.

If any of the conditions
specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and
substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Initial Purchasers, this Agreement and all obligations of the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be cancelled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives. Notice of such
cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

The documents
required to be delivered under this Section 6 will be delivered at the office of counsel for the Initial Purchasers, at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, One Liberty Plaza, New York, New York, 10006, Attention: Duane McLaughlin,
Esq., on the Closing Date.

7. Reimbursement of Expenses. If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not
consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Initial Purchasers set forth in Section 6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 10 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the
part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the Initial Purchasers, the Company will reimburse the Initial Purchasers severally through BAML, JP Morgan and RBS
on demand for all expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

8. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company and the Note Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and
hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, the directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and agents of each Initial Purchaser and each person who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other U.S. federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Final Term Sheet, the Final Memorandum,
any Issuer Written Information, or any other written information, including any electronic road show, used by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the offer or sale of the Securities, or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out
of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and
agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it in



19



---

connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that neither the Company nor any of the Note Guarantors will be
liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Final
Term Sheet or the Final Memorandum, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser through the Representatives
specifically for inclusion therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company or any of the Note Guarantors may otherwise have.

(b) Each Initial Purchaser severally, and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, and each person who controls the Company within the
meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity to each Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to written information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company by or on behalf of
such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the Preliminary Memorandum or the Final Memorandum (or in any amendment or supplement thereto). This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that any
Initial Purchaser may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that (i) the statements set forth in the last paragraph of the cover page regarding delivery of the Securities and (ii), under the heading Plan of Distribution,
(A) the table of Initial Purchasers, and (B) the eighth and ninth paragraphs in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers for inclusion in
the Disclosure Package or the Final Memorandum or in any amendment or supplement thereto.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an
indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party
in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and
such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification
obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel (including local counsel) of the indemnifying partys choice at the indemnifying partys expense to represent the
indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel, other than local counsel if not appointed by the
indemnifying party, retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying partys election to
appoint counsel (including local counsel) to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees,
costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest; (ii) the actual or potential defendants in,
or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses



20



---

available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party and/or other indemnified parties; (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed
counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action; or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate
counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. If none of the conditions in clauses (i) through (iv) in the preceding sentence are satisfied as to any indemnified party, it is understood that the indemnifying party shall, in connection
with any one such action be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of only one separate firm of attorneys in each jurisdiction (and in addition to any local counsel) at any time (other than reasonable overlapping of engagements) for all such
indemnified parties. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or
proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an
unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and does not include any statement as to any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any
indemnified party.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is
unavailable to, or insufficient to hold harmless, an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and the Initial Purchasers severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any loss, claim, damage, liability or action) (collectively Losses) to which the Company and one or more of the Initial Purchasers may be subject in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Initial Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Securities; provided, however, that in no case under this paragraph (d) shall
any Initial Purchaser be responsible for any amount in excess of the purchase discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is
unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Initial Purchasers severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Initial
Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from
the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Initial Purchasers shall be deemed to be equal to the total purchase discounts and commissions. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other
things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Initial Purchasers on the other, the intent
of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were
determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act)



21



---

shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Initial Purchaser
within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee, Affiliate and agent of an Initial Purchaser shall have the same rights to contribution as such Initial Purchaser, and each person who controls the Company
and the Note Guarantors within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each officer and director of the Company and the Note Guarantors shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Note Guarantors, subject in each
case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

9. Default by an Initial Purchaser. If any one
or more Initial Purchasers shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Initial Purchaser hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations
under this Agreement, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears
to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Initial Purchasers) the Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase; provided,
however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Securities which the defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth
in Schedule I hereto, the remaining Initial Purchasers shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Securities, and if such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers do not purchase all the
Securities, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or the Company. In the event of a default by any Initial Purchaser as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such
period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives and the Company shall determine in order that the required changes in the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser of its liability, if any, to the Company or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given
to the Company prior to the time of delivery of, and payment for, the Securities, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in securities generally on the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, S.A.B. de C.V.) or the New
York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on either such exchange; (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Mexican, U.S. federal or New York State authorities; or
(iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by Mexico or the United States of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in
the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto
after the Execution Time).

11. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations,
warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company, the Note



22



---

Guarantors or their respective officers and of the Initial Purchasers set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by
or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers or the Company or the Note Guarantors or any of the indemnified persons referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections 7 and 8
hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

12. Notices. All communications hereunder will

the courts of its own domicile in respect of actions brought against such party as a defendant, and waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding, and irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of

16. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed within the State of New York.

17.
Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby.

18. No Fiduciary Duty. Each of the Company and the Note Guarantors hereby
acknowledges that (a) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arms-length commercial transaction between the Company and the Note Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers and any Affiliates
through which they may be acting, on the other, (b) the Initial Purchasers are acting as principal and not as an agent or fiduciary of the Company or the Note Guarantors and (c) each of the Companys and the Note Guarantors
engagement of the Initial Purchasers in connection with the offering and the process leading up to the offering is as independent contractors and not in any other capacity. Furthermore, each of the Company and the Note Guarantors agrees that it is
solely responsible for making its own judgments in connection with the offering (irrespective of whether any of the Initial Purchasers has advised or is currently advising the Company or the Note Guarantors on related or other matters). Each of the
Company and the Note Guarantors agrees that it will not claim that the Initial Purchasers have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owe an agency, fiduciary or similar duty to the Company or the Note Guarantors, in connection with
such transaction or the process leading thereto.

19. Currency. Each reference in this Agreement to U.S. dollars (the
relevant currency), including by use of the symbol U.S.$, is of the essence. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the obligation of the parties in respect of any amount due under this Agreement will, notwithstanding any
payment in any other currency (whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise), be discharged only to the extent of the amount in the relevant currency that the party entitled to receive such payment may, in accordance with its normal procedures,
purchase with the sum paid in such other currency (after any premium and costs of exchange) on the Business Day immediately following the day on which such party receives such payment. If the amount in the relevant currency that may be so purchased
for any reason falls short of the amount originally due, the obligated party will pay such additional amounts, in the relevant currency, as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall. Any obligation of the obligated party not discharged by
such payment will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be due as a separate and independent obligation and, until discharged as provided herein, will continue in full force and effect.

20. Waiver of Immunity. To the extent that the Company or any of the Note Guarantors has or hereafter may acquire any immunity
(sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment in aid or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, the
Company and each of the Note Guarantors hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement.

21. Waiver of Tax Confidentiality. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
purchasers of the Securities (and each employee, representative or other agent of a purchaser) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure of any transaction contemplated herein
and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the purchasers of the Securities relating to such U.S. tax treatment and U.S tax structure, other than any information for which nondisclosure is
reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

22. Taxes. Each payment of fees or other
amounts due to the Initial Purchasers under this Agreement shall, except as required by applicable law, be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction. If any taxes are required to be withheld or
deducted from any such payment, the Company and the Note Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Initial Purchasers after such withholding or
deduction is equal to the amount that the Initial Purchasers would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required. At the reasonable request of the Initial Purchasers, the Company shall provide evidence of payment of taxes when
due.

liability component amounted to U.S.$622 million as of December 31, 2010 and U.S.$614 million at issuance. The equity component, which represents a premium over the option of the noteholders to convert into equity, was recognized net of
commissions, within Other equity reserves and amounted to U.S.$93 million at issuance (see note 12A and 16B to our consolidated financial statements included in the offering memorandum). If the conversion option is exercised, this amount
will be reclassified as additional paid-in capital. Although we have not completed our U.S. GAAP reconciliation of our 2010 financial statements, we currently anticipate that there will be a new reconciliation item in our U.S. GAAP reconciliation of
our 2010 financial statements in respect of the 2010 Optional Convertible Subordinated Notes, the entire principal amount of which we expect will be recorded as debt until conversion under U.S. GAAP. We cannot assure you that we will not identify
additional reconciliation items or that this reconciliation item will be reflected therein in accordance with our current expectations.

|(13) | Under MFRS C-12, the 2011 Optional Convertible Subordinated Notes, like the 2010 Optional Convertible Subordinated Notes referred to in note (11) above, represent
a compound instrument, which has a liability component and an equity component, and we expect to have a similar U.S. GAAP reconciliation item in respect of the 2011 Optional Convertible Subordinated Notes in our future financial statements. However,
the 2011 Optional Convertible Subordinated Notes will not be considered as debt for purposes of the leverage ratio calculations under the Financing Agreement. The as adjusted column reflects (i) the expected liability component of
the 2011 Optional Convertible Subordinated Notes of U.S.$1,331 million, calculated as of the date of this offering memorandum and (ii) the expected equity component of the 2011 Optional Convertible Subordinated Notes of U.S.$331 million,
calculated net of commissions as of the date of this offering memorandum. The equity component, which represents a premium over the option of the noteholders to convert into equity, is expected to be recognized net of commissions, within Other
equity reserves, and if the conversion option is exercised, will be reclassified as additional paid-in capital.

|(14) | Under MFRS, the Mandatory Convertible Securities issued in Mexico on December 10, 2009 in exchange for CBs represent a combined instrument with liability and
equity components. The liability component, approximately Ps1,994 million (U.S.$161 million) as of December 31, 2010, corresponds to the net present value of interest payments due under the Mandatory Convertible Securities, assuming no
early conversion, and was recognized under Other Financial Obligations in our balance sheet. The equity component, approximately Ps1,971 million (U.S.$159 million) as of December 31, 2010, represents the difference between principal
amount and the liability component, and was recognized within Other equity reserves net of commissions in our balance sheet. See notes 12A and 16B to our consolidated financial statements included in the offering memorandum.

|(15) | Issued by special purpose vehicles. In accordance with MFRS, these securities are accounted for as equity due to the fact that they do not have a specified maturity
date and our option to defer payment of interest However, for purposes of our U.S. GAAP reconciliation, we record these debentures as debt and interest payments thereon as part of financial expenses in our consolidated income statement.

SCHEDULE IV

Form of Opinion of Ramiro G. Villarreal, General Counsel of the Company

[INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH AND RELIANCE SECTIONS]

In rendering this opinion, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, the conformity to
original documents of all documents submitted to me as facsimile, electronic, certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. In making my examination of executed documents, I have assumed that the parties
thereto (other than the Company and CEMEX México) had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the
execution and delivery by such parties (other than the Company and CEMEX México) of such documents and the validity and binding effect thereof on such parties. I have also assumed that each of the parties (other than the Company and CEMEX
México) to the Transaction Documents (as defined herein) has been duly organized and is validly existing in good standing, if applicable, and has requisite legal status and legal capacity, under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization
and that each of such parties has complied and will comply with all aspects of the laws of all relevant jurisdictions (including the laws of its jurisdiction of organization) in connection with the transactions contemplated by, and the performance
of its obligations under, the Transaction Documents, other than the laws of Mexico insofar as I express my opinions herein.

In rendering this opinion I have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents (referred to herein collectively as the
Transaction Documents):

(a) an executed copy of the Purchase Agreement;

(b) the Preliminary Memorandum, the documents incorporated by reference therein and the final term sheet, dated March
[], 2011 (the Final Term Sheet);

(c) the Final Memorandum and the documents
incorporated by reference therein;

(d) an executed copy of the Indenture;

(e) the Securities in global form as executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee;

(f) an executed copy of the Financing Agreement dated August 14, 2009 (the Financing Agreement) between the Company, the
financial institutions and noteholders named therein, as participating creditors, Citibank International PLC, as administrative agent, and Wilmington Trust (London) Limited, as security agent (the Security Agent);

(g) an executed copy of the security trust agreement (contrato de fideicomiso de garantía) entered into among (i) the
Company, CEMEX México, Empresas Tolteca de México, S.A. de C.V., Impra Café, S.A. de C.V., Interamerican Investments, Inc. and Centro Distribuidor



---

de Cemento, S.A. de C.V., as settlors; (ii) CEMEX México, Centro Distribuidor de Cemento, S.A. de C.V., Mexcement Holdings, S.A. de C.V. and Corporación Gouda, S.A. de C.V., as
issuers; (iii) Banco Nacional de México, S.A., Integrante del Grupo Financiero Banamex, División Fiduciaria, as trustee; and (iv) the Security Agent (the Mexican Security Trust); and

(h) the documents executed and delivered by each of the Company and the Note Guarantors at the closing pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the further qualifications set forth below, I am of the opinion that:

1. Each of the Company and CEMEX México has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation under the
laws of Mexico, with full corporate power and authority to own or lease, as the case may be, and to operate their properties and conduct their businesses as described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum and to execute and deliver, and
to perform its obligations under, the Transaction Documents and any transaction contemplated thereunder.

2. All the
outstanding shares of capital stock of each of the Company and CEMEX México has been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, and, except as otherwise set forth in the Disclosure Package and the Final
Memorandum, all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Subsidiaries are owned by the Company either directly or through wholly owned subsidiaries free and clear of any perfected security interest and, to the knowledge of such counsel, after due
inquiry, any other security interest, claim, lien or encumbrance.

3. Each of the Transaction Documents to which each of the
Company and CEMEX México is a party, has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and CEMEX México, respectively, and constitutes a legal, valid and binding agreement, enforceable against the Company and CEMEX
México, respectively, in accordance with its terms.

4. The Mexican Security Trust creates in favor of the Security
Agent, for the benefit of holders of the Securities, valid security interests in the Collateral for the payment of the Securities.

5. Neither the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, nor the consummation of any other of the transactions therein contemplated, nor the fulfillment of the terms thereof will conflict with,
result in a breach or violation of, or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or asset of any of the Company or CEMEX México pursuant to, (i) the charter or by laws (estatutos sociales) of any of the
Company or CEMEX México; (ii) the terms of any indenture, contract, lease, mortgage, deed of trust, note agreement, loan agreement or other agreement, obligation, condition, covenant or instrument to which each of the Company and CEMEX
México is a party or bound or to which their property is subject; or (iii) any statute, law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree applicable to the Company or CEMEX México of any court, regulatory body, administrative
agency, governmental body,

arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over the Company or CEMEX México or any of their respective properties.

6. No consent, approval, authorization, filing with, order of, notice to, or qualification with any Mexican governmental or regulatory
authority or court is required for the execution, delivery and performance by each of the Company and CEMEX México of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the issuance and sale of the Securities, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated therein, except for the notice to be given to the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores), no later than one Business Day after the Closing Date, under Article 7 of the
Securities Market Law, in respect of the issuance of the Securities.

7. The choice of New York state law as the governing law
of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, and the Securities, is legal, valid and binding to each of the Company and CEMEX México under the laws of Mexico and there is no reason why the courts of Mexico would not give effect to the choice of
New York law as the proper law of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, and the Securities; each of the Company and CEMEX México has the legal capacity to sue and be sued in its own name under the laws of Mexico; each of the Company and
CEMEX México has the power to submit, and has irrevocably submitted, to the jurisdiction of the New York courts and each of the Company and CEMEX México has validly and irrevocably appointed Corporate Creations Network Inc. as its
authorized agent under the laws of Mexico for service of process under the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities; the irrevocable submission of each of the Company and CEMEX México to the jurisdiction of the New York courts and
the waivers by each of the Company and CEMEX México of any immunity and any objection to the venue of the proceeding in a New York court in the Purchase Agreement, in the Indenture, and in the Securities, are legal, valid and binding under
the laws of Mexico and there is no reason why the courts of Mexico would not give effect to such submission and waivers; and the courts in Mexico will recognize as valid and final, and will enforce, any final and conclusive judgment against each of
the Company and CEMEX México obtained in a New York court arising out of or in relation to the obligations of each of the Company and CEMEX México under the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, or the Securities, without re-examination
of the issues pursuant to Articles 569 and 571 of the Mexican Federal Code of Civil Procedure and Article 1347A of the Mexican Commerce Code, which provide, inter alia, that any judgment rendered outside of Mexico may be enforced by Mexican
Courts, provided that:



| | (i) | such judgment is obtained in compliance with (a) all legal requirements of the jurisdiction of the court rendering such judgment, and (b) all legal
requirements of the relevant Transaction Documents;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | such judgment is not rendered in a real action (acción real);
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | such judgment is final, non-appealable and authenticated by the appropriate governmental authorities, and is strictly for the payment of a certain sum
of money, provided that, under Mexican Monetary Law, payments that should be made in Mexico in foreign currency, whether by agreement or upon a
| | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

| | judgment of a Mexican Court, may be discharged in Mexican currency at a rate of exchange for such currency prevailing at the time of payment;

| | (iv) | the court rendering such judgment is competent to render such judgment in accordance with applicable rules under international law and such rules are compatible with
the rules adopted under the Mexican Code of Commerce;

| | (v) | service of process was made personally on the Company and CEMEX México, as applicable, or on an appropriate Process Agent of the Company and CEMEX México,
as applicable;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (vi) | such judgment does not contravene Mexican public policy or laws (and we have no reason to believe that a judgment based upon the Transaction Documents would contravene
Mexican public policy);
| | ---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (vii) | the applicable procedure under the laws of Mexico with respect to the enforcement for foreign judgments (including the issuance of a letter rogatory by the competent
authority of such jurisdiction requesting enforcement of such judgment and the certification of such judgment as authentic by the corresponding authorities of such jurisdiction in accordance with the laws thereof) is complied with;
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (viii) | the courts of such jurisdiction recognize the principles of reciprocity in connection with the enforcement of Mexican judgments in such jurisdiction; and
| | ------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ix) | the cause of action in connection with which such judgment is rendered is not the same cause of action between the same parties that is pending before a Mexican court.
| | ---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8. Except as described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum, with respect to non-residents of
Mexico, no stamp or other issuance or transfer taxes or duties and no capital gains, income, withholding or other taxes are payable by or on behalf of the Initial Purchasers to Mexico or to any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
therein in connection with the sale and delivery by the Company of the Securities as contemplated in the Purchase Agreement to the Initial Purchasers, the sale and delivery by the Initial Purchasers of the Securities as contemplated in the Purchase
Agreement or the entering into or performance of the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

9. Other than as described in the
Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum, under the current laws and regulations of Mexico, all payments of principal, premium (if any) and interest on the Securities may be paid, if applicable, by each of the Company and CEMEX México to
the registered holder thereof in U.S. dollars (that may be obtained through conversion of Mexican Pesos) that may be freely transferred out of Mexico, and all such payments and other distributions made to holders of the Securities who are
non-residents of Mexico, will not be subject to Mexican income, withholding or other taxes under the laws and regulations of Mexico and are otherwise free and clear of any other tax, duty



---

withholding or deduction in Mexico and without the necessity of obtaining any governmental authorization in Mexico.

10. It is not necessary in order to enable the Initial Purchasers, the Trustee or the holders of the Securities to exercise or enforce its rights under the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture or the
Securities in Mexico or by reason of the entry into and/or the performance of the Purchase Agreement and the Indenture, that the Initial Purchasers, the Trustee or the holders of Securities should be licensed or qualified to do business in Mexico.
The Initial Purchasers and the non-Mexican holders of the Securities will not be deemed resident, domiciled, carrying on business or subject to taxation in Mexico solely by reason of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the
Purchase Agreement.

11. Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum, there is no pending or, to
the best of my knowledge, threatened action, suit or proceeding by or before any court or governmental agency, authority or body or any arbitrator involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries or its or their property that is not adequately
disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum, except in each case for such proceedings that, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding would not singly or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect;

12. (i) The statements in the Disclosure Package and the Final Memorandum under the headings Important Federal Tax
Considerations, Description of Notes and Regulatory Matters and Legal Proceedings, fairly summarize the matters therein described.

13. There is no reason to believe that the Disclosure Package, as amended or supplemented at the Execution Time, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (in each case, other than the financial statements and other financial information contained therein, as to which I
express no opinion).

14. There is no reason to believe that the Final Memorandum, as of its date or on the Closing Date,
contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading (in each case, other
than the financial statements and other financial information contained therein, as to which I express no opinion).

I express
no opinion as to any laws other than the laws of Mexico. In rendering my opinion, I have relied, (i) as to matters governed by United States Federal and New York law, upon the opinion of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP
delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and (ii) as to matters of fact, on certificates of responsible officers of each of the Company and CEMEX México and public officials that are furnished to the Initial Purchasers.

This opinion is subject to the following qualifications:



---

a. Enforcement of the Transaction Documents may be limited by concurso mercantil,
bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally;

b. Labor claims, claims of tax authorities for unpaid taxes, social security quotas, workers housing fund quotas, retirement fund quotas, as well as claims from secured or privileged creditors, will
have priority over claims of the parties to, or in connection with, the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities;

c. In the event that proceedings are brought in Mexico seeking performance of the obligations of the Company or CEMEX México in
Mexico, pursuant to the Mexican Monetary Law, such entity may discharge its obligations by paying any sums due in a currency other than Mexican currency, in Mexican currency at the rate of exchange prevailing in Mexico on the date when payment is
made;

d. In the event that any legal proceedings are brought in the courts of Mexico, a Spanish translation of the documents
required in such proceedings prepared by a court-approved translator would have to be approved by the court after the defendant has been given an opportunity to be heard with respect to the accuracy of the translation, and proceedings would
thereafter be based upon the translated documents;

e. In the event of foreclosure of the Mexican Security Trust, the
purchaser or purchasers of any transferred shares of a Mexican entity may require the approval of each of the Mexican Competition Commission (Comisión Federal de Competencia) and the Mexican Foreign Investment Commission
(Comisión Nacional de Inversiones Extranjeras);

f. Claims may become barred under the statutes of limitation,
which are not waivable under Mexican law, or may become subject to defenses or set-off or counterclaim;

g. A Mexican court
may stay proceedings held in such court if concurrent proceedings are being held elsewhere;

h. Under the laws of Mexico, the
obligations of a guarantor are not independent from, and may not exceed, the obligations of the main obligor;

i. With respect
to the provisions contained in each of the Transaction Documents in connection with service of process, it should be noted that service of process by mail does not constitute personal service of process under Mexican law and, since such service is
considered to be a basic procedural requirement, if for purposes of proceedings outside Mexico service of process is made by mail, a final judgment based on such process would not be enforced by the courts of Mexico; and

j. An obligation to pay interest on interest may not be enforceable in Mexico.

This opinion is furnished only to you as representative of the Initial Purchasers and is solely for the Initial Purchasers benefit
in connection with the closing occurring today and the offering of the Securities, in each case pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Without my prior written consent, this opinion may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to

for any other purpose or relied upon by, or assigned to, any other person for any purpose, including any other person that acquires any Securities or that seeks to assert your rights in respect
of this opinion (other than an Initial Purchasers successor in interest by means of merger, consolidation, transfer of a business or other similar transaction), except that The Bank of New York Mellon may rely upon this opinion in its capacity

under the laws of Spain, with full corporate power and authority to own or lease, as the case may be, property and assets and to carry on its business pursuant to its articles of incorporation.

| | 2.2.3 | Neither the execution nor the delivery of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the issuance and sale of Securities, the Transaction Security Documents nor the
consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor the fulfilment of the terms thereof conflict with or will conflict with, result in a violation of, or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or asset of the Spanish
Note Guarantor or of any of its Spanish subsidiaries pursuant to:
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | the constitutional documents of the Spanish Note Guarantor or any of its Spanish subsidiaries;
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | the terms of any Spanish law governed indenture, contract, lease, mortgage, deed of trust, note agreement, loan agreement or other agreement, obligation, condition,
covenant or instrument to which the Spanish Note Guarantor or any of its Spanish subsidiaries is a party or bound or to which its or their property is subject; or

drafted in a language different than Spanish should they need to be submitted to a Spanish court,
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to ensure the
legality, validity, enforceability and the admissibility in evidence of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the Securities and/or the Transaction Security Documents governed by Spanish law.



|2.4 | Bank Domicile and Place of Business
|--- | -----------------------------------



| | 2.4.1 | None of the Initial Purchasers, the Trustee or the holders of the Securities is or will become (or be deemed to have become) resident, domiciled, engaged in the

|2.5 | Governing Law
|--- | -------------



| | 2.5.1 | The choice of law provisions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities are legal valid and binding as far as Spanish law is applicable.
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 2.5.2 | In any proceedings for the enforcement of the guarantee given by the Spanish Note Guarantor, the Spanish courts would give effect to the choice of New

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



---

| | the governing law of the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities in accordance with, and subject to the limitations set forth in, Regulation (EC) no. 593/2008 of the European
Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 2008 on the law applicable to contractual obligations (Rome I).
| | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2.6 | Submission to Jurisdiction
|--- | --------------------------



| | 2.6.1 | The Spanish Note Guarantor has the legal capacity to sue and be sued in its own name.
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 2.6.2 | The Spanish Note Guarantor has the power to submit, and has irrevocably submitted to the jurisdiction of the New York courts and has validly and irrevocably appointed
Corporate Creations Network Inc. as its authorized agent for the purpose described in the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and in the Securities.
| | ----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 2.6.3 | The irrevocable submission by the Spanish Note Guarantor to the jurisdiction of the New York courts and the waivers by the Spanish Note Guarantor of any immunity and
any objection to the venue of the proceeding in a New York court in the Purchase Agreement and the Indenture are legal, valid and binding.
| | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | 2.6.4 | Pursuant to the interpretation given by the Spanish Supreme Court (Tribunal Supremo) to article 22.2 of the Organic Law 6/1985, dated 1 July 1985, on the Judiciary
(LOPJ) the Spanish courts would give effect to the Spanish Note Guarantors submission to the New York courts and the waiver to any objection to the venue of the proceeding in a New York court.
| | ----- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|2.7 | Recognition and enforcement of judgments
|--- | ----------------------------------------

Any judgment obtained in the United States would be recognised in Spain in accordance with articles 951 to 958 of the Civil Procedural Act of 1881 (Ley de Enjuiciamiento Civil,hereinafter,
LEC 1881) in connection with the Civil Procedural Act of 2000 (hereinafter, LEC 2000). Pursuant to these articles (as interpreted by the Spanish Supreme Court - Tribunal Supremo-), in the absence of any treaty providing
for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments (currently there is no such treaty between the United States and Spain) and in the absence of proof that similar Spanish judgments are not recognised and enforced in the specific State
rendering the judgment (in which case the US judgment will not be recognised in Spain), such US judgment will be recognised and enforced in Spain provided that it meets the following requirements:



| | (a) | the judgment must be final, translated into Spanish and apostilled;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | the judgment is not contrary to Spanish public policy;
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | there is not a pending proceeding between the same parties and in relation to the same issues in Spain;
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (d) | there is not a judgment rendered between the same parties and for the same cause of action in Spain or in another country provided that in this latter case the judgment
has been recognised in Spain;
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

| | (e) | where rendering the judgment, the courts rendering it must have decided upon an action characterised as an action in personam (in the interpretation made by the
Spanish Supreme Court of article 954.1 of the LEC 1881), have not infringed an exclusive ground of jurisdiction provided for in Spanish law and have not based their jurisdiction on exorbitant grounds; and
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (f) | the rights of defence of the defendant should have been protected where rendering the foreign judgment, including but not limited to a proper service of process carried
out with sufficient time for the defendant to prepare its defence.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Under Spanish procedural law, process must be
served personally on each defendant. The Spanish Supreme Court, taking into account the circumstances of the case, may construe that service of process on an agent appointed by the Spanish Note Guarantor has infringed Spanish public policy or the
rights of defence of the Spanish Note Guarantor. Should this be the case, the judgment rendered in the State of New York would not be recognised in Spain.

SCHEDULE 3



|3. | QUALIFICATIONS
|-- | --------------



|3.1 | General Qualifications
|--- | ----------------------



|3.1.2 | The validity and enforceability of the obligations of the Foreign Pledgors and the Spanish Note Guarantor under the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish
Share Pledges Agreement are subject to the laws regulating insolvency or liquidation proceedings and to other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors rights and remedies, as welt as to any principles of
public policy (orden público).
|----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.1.3 | Under Spanish law, any provision of a contract allowing a party to unilaterally determine or decide the fulfilment of an obligation may be declared null and void.
|----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.1.4 | The terms enforceable, enforceability, valid, legal, binding and effective (or any combination
thereof) mean that ail the obligations assumed by the relevant party under the General Documents or the Transaction Security Documents are of a type that Spanish courts enforce; it does not mean that these obligations will necessarily be enforced in
all circumstances in accordance with their terms; in particular, enforcement before the courts will in any event be subject to:
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.1.5 | the nature of the remedies available in the courts (and nothing in this Opinion Letter must be taken as indicating that specific performance or injunctive relief would
be available as remedies for the enforcement of such obligations); and
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.1.6 | the availability of defences such as (without limitation), set-off (unless validly waived), circumvention of law (fraude de ley), abuse in the exercise of
rights (abuso de derecho), misrepresentation, force majeure, unforeseen circumstances, undue influence, duress, error, abatement and counter-claim.
|----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.1.7 | A clause, which provides that in the event of any invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision of an agreement the remaining provisions thereof shall not
be affected, may not be effective if a particular provision of that agreement: (i) is found to be null; and (ii) held by the courts to have been an essential element without which the parties would not have entered into such agreement. In
that case, such agreement as a whole may be declared null and void.
|----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2 | Specific Qualifications
|--- | -----------------------



|3.2.1 | In general terms, under Spanish law, any guarantee, pledge or mortgage must guarantee or secure another obligation to which it is ancillary and which must be clearly
identified in the relevant guarantee or security agreement. Therefore, the guarantee or security follows the underlying obligation in such a way that nullity of the underlying obligation entails nullity of the guarantee or security and termination
of the underlying obligation entails cancellation of the guarantee or security.
|----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

|3.2.2 | The irrevocable nature of the Irrevocable Powers of Attorney is based on some previous decisions of the Spanish Supreme Court (Tribunal Supremo) (STS dated
31 October 1987, 27 April 1989 and 26 November 1991). However, since such irrevocable nature may be considered as an exception to the rules generally applicable to powers of attorney under Spanish law, a different view by the
competent Spanish courts in connection with the referenced power of attorney could not be disregarded.
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2.3 | The enforcement of the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and/or the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement must be made in accordance with the procedures provided by Spanish
law and referred to therein. As a general rule (and save for certain exceptions like the one mentioned in 3.2.4 below), the beneficiaries do not have the right to become owners of the assets subject to the specific security once a default of the
secured obligations has occurred. However, the beneficiaries have the right to be reimbursed from the sale proceeds obtained from the public auction of the relevant assets and to act themselves as bidders in such public auction. Royal Decree Law
5/2005, of 11 March on reformas urgentes para el impulso de la productividad y para la mejora de la contratación pública, (RDL 5/2005) provides for the possibility of enforcing a pledge over shares
by appropriation of the shares by the creditors or through a sale provided that certain conditions are met.
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2.4 | Using the enforcement procedures provided for in RDL 5/2005 for a pledge created over shares as security for the obligations arising under the General Documents is
consistent with the literal reference of RDL 5/2005 to financial obligations. Although there are certain resolutions from lower courts supporting the applicability of the enforcement procedures provided for in RDL 5/2005 to the enforcement of a
pledge created over shares as security for the obligations arising under a financing agreement (to the best of my knowledge, there is no case law from the Spanish Supreme Court in relation to this matter), there is some doctrinal debate about the
applicability of RDL 5/2005 to cases like this. Therefore it cannot be disregarded that, upon enforcement of the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and/or the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement, a court may consider that the enforcement procedures
provided for in RDL 5/2005 cannot be used for the enforcement of the Spanish Shares Pledge Agreement. In such a case, provisions of the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement dealing with these enforcement
proceedings would be rendered null and void notwithstanding, in any event, the validity and effectiveness of the remaining provisions and, consequently, of the beneficiaries right to resort to any other type of enforcement proceeding permitted
by law and to any rights of separation and abstention.
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2.5 | Since the Spanish Supreme Court (Tribunal Supremo) has rendered extra judicial proceedings for mortgage foreclosure regulated formerly
under Articles 129.2 of the Law on Mortgages (Ley Hipotecaria) and 234 and 236 of the Spanish Regulation on Mortgages (Reglamento Hipotecario) null and void on the basis of the supervening unconstitutionality of these
proceedings (STS dated 4 May 1998 and 30 January and 20 April of 1999), the possibility that the Spanish courts might pass a similar resolution in respect of the extrajudicial proceedings for the enforcement of the pledge regulated
under Article 1,872 of the Spanish Civil Code cannot be disregarded. In such a case, clauses of the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

| | dealing with such extra judicial proceedings would be rendered null and void notwithstanding the validity and effectiveness otherwise of the pledge and, consequently, of the beneficiaries
right to resort to any other type of enforcement proceeding permitted by law and to any rights of separation and abstention.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2.6 | It is not beyond doubt that the Security Agent may validly establish a liquidated sum in respect of a claim in a proceeding for the enforcement of the security created
pursuant to the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement in accordance with the procedure established in Article 572.2 of LEC 2000, as long as, to the best of my knowledge, the Spanish courts have not handed down a
judgment in relation to the applicability of said Article to agreements governed by a law other than Spanish law. Therefore, it may not be completely disregarded that the enforcement of the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and/or the New Spanish
Share Pledges Agreement could require that a judgement be obtained in England in relation to the Financing Agreement and/or New York, in relation to the General Documents, establishing that a default has been made in payment of the secured
obligations and a liquidated sum became payable thereunder or, where appropriate in relation to the Financing Agreement, a European Enforcement Order Certificate under Regulation (EC) No 805/2004 from the European Parliament and the Council, dated
21 April 2004, creating a European enforcement order for uncontested claims be issued and then be recognised and enforced in Spain over the assets subject to the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement.
|----- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2.7 | The Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement exclusively secure compliance with the relevant secured obligations stated therein, and
no other obligations will be deemed to be secured by the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement. Consequently, the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement will only be
enforceable for failure to comply with such obligations up to the defaulted amount under such obligations and the proceeds of the relevant security will be applied to reduce this defaulted amount consistently. Notwithstanding this, the Security
Agent may then distribute the proceeds in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement amongst the parties thereto.
|----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2.8 | No statutory provision of Spanish law regulates the possibility of creating concurrently (i) a second or subsequent pledge over assets already pledged; and/or
(ii) a diversity of pledges of equal rank over the same assets and, in addition, there is, to the best of my knowledge, no case law in relation to this matter. Second and subsequent pledges are expressly prohibited by Article 569-15.1 of the
Catalonian Law 5/2006 of 10 May, regulating the right of pledge (but which is not the governing law of the Spanish governed Transaction Security Documents) but, on the contrary, Spanish law recognises the possibility of having concurrent and
second or subsequent ranking real estate mortgages and the possibility of creating security over assets already subject to chattel mortgage or pledge without delivery possession and some scholars admit (by analogy with real estate mortgages
regulation and related case law and in the absence of specific legislation relating to ordinary pledges) the creation of (i) second or subsequent ranking pledges; and (ii) a diversity of pledges of equal rank.
|----- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

As a consequence of the above, although there are grounds to sustain the effectiveness of
concurrent and/or second ranking pledges, it cannot be completely disregarded that a court may take a different view and consider such pledges ineffective and not admissible in Spain.



|3.2.9 | Pursuant to Article 132.1 of the Law on Capital Companies (Ley de Sociedades de Capital), if there is a pledge over the shares, the exercise of the
shareholders rights corresponding to the pledged shares will be attributed to the pledgor, unless the by-laws provide otherwise. According to the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement, the Foreign Pledgors
have undertaken, upon the occurrence of an event of default and once notice has been given to them, to promptly perform as many actions as may be necessary or desirable in order to allow the exercise of the rights attached to the pledged shares by
the Secured Parties. In the event that the Foreign Pledgors do not comply with the abovementioned undertaking, or in the event that the Mercantile Registrar refuses to enter the relevant amendments of the by-laws into the Mercantile Registry, the
exercise of the rights attached to the shares shall not be attributed to the Secured Parties upon the notification of an event of default and shall remain with the Foreign Pledgors, even though the referenced undertaking will be valid and binding on
the parties thereto.
|----- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.2.10 | Whilst, to the best of my knowledge, there has been no judicial decision on the point, there is a risk that the parallel debt provisions may be set aside for public
policy reasons under Spanish law, on the basis that a Spanish court may consider that the debt owed to the Security Agent did not have a lawful cause (causa lícita) because it did not arise from any funds actually lent by such Security
Agent and, in that case, any security for such parallel debt would not be valid in Spain even if the parallel debt is legal, valid and binding under the law by which it is expressed to be governed.
|------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.3 | Insolvency Qualifications
|--- | -------------------------



|3.3.1 | The rules relating to ranking of creditors in case of insolvency, and insolvency rules in general, are mandatory and as such, I do not express any opinion in respect of
the recognition by a Spanish court of the private arrangements (which may be valid between the parties) agreed between the parties in respect of a Spanish insolvency.
|----- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.3.2 | The Spanish Insolvency Law provides for the possibility of annulment of acts detrimental to the estate of the insolvent carried out during the two (2) years
preceding the declaration of insolvency as well as for the possibility of setting aside transactions based on general legal grounds such as transactions carried out in fraud of creditors.
|----- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.3.3 | According to articles 92 and 158 of the Spanish Insolvency Law, claims of persons characterised thereunder as specially related to the insolvent entity or individual
shall be subordinated and shall not be paid until ordinary credits have been fully discharged; security granted for securing these claims shall be cancelled. Article 93 of the Spanish Insolvency Law sets out that the following persons are specially
related to the insolvent company:
|----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | Shareholders who are personally liable for the debts of the company or hold a stake in the company of at least 5%, where the company is listed, or 10%, if the company
is unlisted;
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

| | (b) | Directors, directors-in-fact, liquidators and general attorneys appointed within two years prior to the insolvency adjudication;
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Companies within the group of the insolvent company and their shareholders.
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Article 93 of the Spanish Insolvency Law establishes the refutable presumption that the assignees of the above are also specially related persons if the assignment has occurred within two years prior to
the adjudication of insolvency.

Although to the best of my knowledge there is no case law on this matter, should the Security
Agent become entitled to exercise the voting rights in the Spanish Note Guarantor pursuant to the Spanish Share Pledges Agreement and the New Spanish Share Pledges Agreement, the actual exercise of these voting rights by the Security Agent might
entail the Security Agent being considered as a shadow director of the Spanish Note Guarantor. In this case, the claims filed in insolvency proceedings affecting the Spanish Note Guarantor and deriving from the General Documents could be considered
detrimental to the estate unless evidence to the contrary is provided.



|3.4 | GOVERNING LAW
|--- | -------------

When
applying English law and/or the law of the State of New York as the law governing the Financing Agreement and General Documents, the courts of Spain, by virtue of Rome I:



| | (a) | may give effect to the overriding mandatory rules of the law of the country where the obligations arising out of the Financing Agreement and/or the General Documents
have to be or have been performed, insofar as those overriding mandatory provisions render the performance of the Financing Agreement and/or the General Documents unlawful. In considering whether to give effect to those provisions regard shall be
had to their nature and purpose and to the consequences of their application or non-application;
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | will apply the overriding mandatory provisions of the law of Spain; and
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | (may refuse to apply English law or the NY law in relation to the Financing Agreement and the General Documents if such application is manifestly incompatible with the
public policy (orden público) of Spain, or if submission English law or New York law is deemed to have been made with the aim of avoiding the application of mandatory Spanish laws or legal requirements.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.5 | APPLICATION OF FOREIGN LAW
|--- | --------------------------



| | (a) | When applying English law and/or the law of the State of New York as the law governing the Financing Agreement and/or the General Documents, the courts of Spain, by
virtue of Rome I, shall have regard to the law of the country in which performance takes place in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken in the event of defective performance; and
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

| | (b) | When applying English law and/or the law of the State of New York as the law governing the Financing Agreement and/or the General Documents, the courts of Spain, may
require evidence satisfactory to them of the English law and/or New York law in accordance with article 281 of the LEC 2000.
| | --- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|3.6 | JURISDICTION
|--- | ------------

Articles 21
to 25 of LOPJ regulates the extension and limits of Spanish courts jurisdiction. The LOPJ does not establish the requirements for the submission to a foreign court to be considered valid nor does it establish the consequences of this submission.
Nonetheless, the Spanish Supreme Court (Tribunal Supremo) has interpreted in certain cases article 22 of the LOPJ in a bilateral way, considering that voluntary submission to a foreign court is a valid ground for jurisdiction. Nonetheless, should a
claim be filed before a Spanish court where the plaintiff had agreed to submit this claim to the courts of New York, the Spanish courts would not be bound to reject the claim if the defendant appears before them for a purpose other than rejecting
its jurisdiction or they had a ground to adjudication in accordance with Spanish law.



|3.7 | TAXATION
|--- | --------

Any payments
made by the Spanish Note Guarantor (as guarantor) under the Purchase Agreement, the Indenture and/or the Securities may be characterised as an indemnity and, accordingly, be made free and clear of, and without withholding or deduction for, any
taxes, duties, assessments or governmental charges of whatsoever nature imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by the Kingdom of Spain or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having power to tax.

However, although there is no precedent or specific statement of law or regulation on the matter, in the event that the Spanish Tax
Authorities take the view that the Spanish Note Guarantor has validly, legally and effectively assumed (automatically or by a contract or by whatever means necessary) all the obligations of the Issue, the Spanish Tax Authorities may attempt to
impose withholding tax in the Kingdom of Spain on any payments made by the Spanish Note Guarantor in respect of interest on the Securities, unless the recipient is resident for tax purposes in a Member State of the European Union, other than Spain,
and not acting through a territory considered as a tax haven pursuant to Spanish Law (currently as set out in Royal Decree 1080/1991, of 5 of July) nor through a permanent establishment in Spain, or is resident for tax purposes in a jurisdiction
that has entered into a double taxation treaty with Spain providing for the exemption of the withholding, provided that such recipients submit to the Spanish Note Guarantor the relevant tax residence certificate, issued by the corresponding Tax
Authorities, each certificate being valid for a period of one year beginning on the date of issue of the tax residence certificate.
