    specify a price not greater than Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW) nor less than Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW) at which you are willing to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs (prices may only be specified in increments of Ps0.30 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps1.50 per ADW)),
    specify the amount of appreciation warrants or ADWs you want to tender, and
    follow the instructions in this document and the related documents, including the accompanying letter of transmittal, to submit your appreciation warrants or ADWs.

When the offer expires, we will determine a purchase price, which will be either (1) the lowest price that will enable us to purchase at least eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders (as defined herein) on November 5, 2003 (or 45,293,003 appreciation warrants), or (2) if less than eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders on November 5, 2003 (or 45,293,003 appreciation warrants) are validly tendered, the highest price at which any appreciation warrant (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) is validly tendered by an eligible holder. We refer to the purchase price determined by us as described above as the “selected purchase price.”

We will purchase at the selected purchase price all appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) that are validly tendered at prices at or below the selected purchase price and not properly withdrawn, including appreciation warrants validly tendered, and not properly withdrawn, by persons that are not eligible holders. We will not purchase any appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) tendered at prices above the selected purchase price and we will return all appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) not purchased as promptly as practicable after the tender offer is completed or terminated.

All appreciation warrants we purchase in the offer will be purchased directly by us, and all ADWs we purchase in the offer will be purchased by CEMEX, Inc., our wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary.

Concurrently with the commencement of the offer, we are also offering to purchase appreciation warrants in Mexico on the same terms as the offer made hereby.

The offer is not conditioned on any minimum number of appreciation warrants or ADWs being tendered. The offer is, however, subject to other conditions discussed under “The Offer—5. Conditions of the Offer.”

Our board of directors has approved the offer. However, neither we nor our board of directors, CEMEX, Inc., the U.S. dealer manager, the Mexican dealer manager, the U.S. tender agent or the information agent makes any recommendation to you as to whether you should tender or not tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs or as to the price or prices at which you may choose to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs. You must make your own decision as to whether to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs and, if so, how many appreciation warrants or ADWs to tender and the price or prices at which your appreciation warrants or ADWs should be tendered.

This document and the related letter of transmittal contain important information about the offer that you should read before deciding whether to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs in the offer.

The appreciation warrants are listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange under the symbol “CMX412E-DC062,” and the ADWs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CX-WSB.” On November 14, 2003, the last reported sales price of the appreciation warrants on the Mexican Stock Exchange was Ps5.70 per appreciation warrant ($0.51 per appreciation warrant at an exchange rate of Ps11.143 per U.S. dollar) and the last reported sales price of the ADWs on the New York Stock Exchange was $2.35 per ADW.

This transaction has not been approved or disapproved by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, nor has the SEC passed upon the fairness or merits of such transaction or upon the accuracy or adequacy of the information contained in this document. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

If you want to tender all or part of your appreciation warrants or ADWs, you must do one of the following before the offer expires:

 

In the case of appreciation warrants, all of which are held in book-entry form through the facilities of S.D. Indeval, Institución para el Depósito de Valores, S.A. de C.V., or Indeval, your agent should arrange for a Mexican broker-dealer (casa de bolsa) that is an Indeval participant to receive and hold the appreciation warrants through its Indeval account on your behalf and to tender those appreciation warrants in the offer, in a transaction executed as a transfer (cruce) on the Mexican Stock Exchange, to Acciones y Valores de México, S.A. de C.V., Casa de Bolsa, Integrante del Grupo Financiero Banamex, or Accival, the Mexican dealer manager, who will be acting on our behalf, at its account at Indeval and to deliver to the Mexican dealer manager an Indeval participant tender letter, in the format provided for such purpose, prior to the expiration date. In the event one or more brokers, dealers, banks, trust companies, custodians or other nominees act as an intermediary between your agent and the Mexican broker-dealer that is an Indeval participant, your agent should arrange for the intermediary to forward the tender instructions for the appreciation warrants to the appropriate Mexican broker-dealer that is an Indeval participant for such Mexican broker-dealer to follow the procedures described above. See “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.”

 

In the case of ADWs held in book-entry form, all of which are held through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, your agent should arrange for the DTC participant holding the ADWs through its DTC account to tender those ADWs in the tender offer to the U.S. tender agent prior to the expiration date in accordance with the DTC procedures applicable to tendering in modified Dutch auctions. In the event one or more brokers, dealers, banks, trust companies, custodians or other nominees acts as an intermediary between your agent and that DTC participant, your agent should arrange to deliver the tender instructions for the ADWs to the appropriate DTC participant. See “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.”

 

In the case of ADWs held in certificated form, you may tender the ADWs registered in your name on the books of the U.S. tender agent by delivering to the U.S. tender agent a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or a manually executed facsimile of it, together with the applicable signature guarantees from an eligible guarantor institution, and the certificate evidencing the ADWs specified in the accompanying letter of transmittal, in each case, on or prior to the expiration date. See “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.”

 

A tender will be deemed to have been received only:

 

(1) in the case of a tender of appreciation warrants, when the Mexican dealer manager receives both the duly completed and signed Indeval participant tender letter stating the price(s) at which you are tendering appreciation warrants and indicating whether you are an eligible holder at its address in Mexico City specified on the back cover of this document and a book-entry transfer, pursuant to a transaction executed on the Mexican Stock Exchange, of the appreciation warrants into the Mexican dealer manager’s Indeval third-party account;

 

(2) in the case of a tender of ADWs in book-entry form, when the U.S. tender agent receives both a duly completed agents’ message through the facilities of DTC at the U.S. tender agent’s DTC account stating the price(s) at which you are tendering ADWs through your broker and, in the case of a tender of ADWs into the eligible holder account, specifying that the relevant DTC participant is tendering on behalf of an eligible holder and confirmation of book-entry transfer of the ADWs into the U.S. tender agent’s applicable DTC account; or

 

(3) in the case of a tender of ADWs held in certificated form, when the U.S. tender agent receives a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal stating the price, at which you are tendering each ADW certificate representing ADWs and indicating whether you are an eligible holder, together with the applicable signature guarantees from an eligible institution, and the certificate evidencing the ADWs specified in the accompanying letter of transmittal, in each case, on or prior to the expiration date.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the offer, CEMEX’s obligation to accept for purchase, and to pay the purchase price for, each appreciation warrant or ADW validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the offer is subject to and conditioned upon the satisfaction of or, where applicable, waiver by CEMEX of, all “Conditions of the Offer” described under “The Offer—5.

SUMMARY

 

We are providing this summary for your convenience. It highlights material information in this document, but you should realize that it does not describe all the details of the offer to the same extent that they are described in the body of this document. We urge you to read the entire document and the related letter of transmittal because they contain the full details of the offer. Where helpful, we have included references to the sections of this document where you will find a more complete discussion.

 

Who is offering to purchase my securities?

 

CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. We are offering to purchase at the selected purchase price (as defined below) all of our appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) that are tendered in the offer at or below the selected purchase price. As of November 17, 2003, there were 103,790,945 appreciation warrants outstanding (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs). All appreciation warrants we purchase in the offer will be purchased directly by us, and all ADWs we purchase in the offer will be purchased by CEMEX, Inc., our wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary.

 

What is the purchase price?

 

The price range for the offer is Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW) (the closing price of the appreciation warrants on the Mexican Stock Exchange on September 30, 2003, the date we announced our intention to initiate a tender offer for our appreciation warrants) to Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW) (the theoretical value of an appreciation warrant on November 15, 2003, calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, assuming a volatility of 35%, a risk-free rate of 1.3%, a dividend yield of 0% and the highest sales price of our American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, each ADS representing five of our Ordinary Participation Certificates, or CPOs, on the New York Stock Exchange during September 2003, which was U.S.$26.20, translated into Pesos at an exchange rate of Ps11.13 to U.S.$1.00, which was the Peso/Dollar spot exchange rate reported by Bloomberg on November 12, 2003).

 

We are conducting the offer through a procedure commonly called a “modified Dutch Auction.”

 

    This procedure allows you to select the price, within a price range specified by us, at which you are willing to sell your appreciation warrants or ADWs.

 

    We will look at the prices chosen by “eligible holders” of appreciation warrants and ADWs, which are all holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs, other than our executive officers, directors, subsidiaries and two of our employee pension funds over which we exercise investment discretion, which we refer to as the “employee pension funds.” As of November 5, 2003, of the 103,790,945 outstanding appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs), 56,616,253 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) were held by eligible holders. We will then determine the purchase price, which will be either (1) the lowest price that will enable us to purchase at least eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders on November 5, 2003 (or 45,293,003 appreciation warrants), or (2) if less than eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders on November 5, 2003 (or 45,293,003 appreciation warrants) are validly tendered, the highest price at which any appreciation warrant (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) is validly tendered by an eligible holder. We refer to the purchase price determined by us as described above as the “selected purchase price.”

 

   

We and CEMEX, Inc. will purchase all appreciation warrants and ADWs, respectively, that are validly tendered at prices at or below the selected purchase price and not properly withdrawn, including appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered, and not properly withdrawn, by persons that are not

Table of Contents
 

eligible holders. All appreciation warrants and ADWs we purchase will be purchased at the selected purchase price, even if you have chosen a lower price, but we will not purchase any appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered at a price above the selected purchase price. For purposes of determining the selected purchase price only, appreciation warrants and ADWs beneficially owned by persons that are not eligible holders will not be taken into account.

 

    If you wish to ensure that your appreciation warrants or ADWs will be purchased, you should check the box next to the minimum purchase price of Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW) in the pricing section of the Indeval participant tender letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable. See “The Offer—1. Number of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Price.”

 

How and when will I be paid?

 

If your appreciation warrants or ADWs are purchased in the offer, you will be paid the purchase price, in cash, without interest, as soon as practicable after the expiration of the offer period and the acceptance of the appreciation warrants or ADWs, as applicable, for payment. In the case of appreciation warrants, we will pay the purchase price in Mexican Pesos for the appreciation warrants to the Mexican broker-dealer tendering the appreciation warrants, which will act as your agent for the purpose of receiving payment from us and transmitting payment to you. In the case of ADWs, we will pay the purchase price in Mexican Pesos for the ADWs to the U.S. tender agent, which will act as your agent for the purpose of receiving payment from us and transmitting payment to you. The U.S. tender agent will arrange for the conversion of the purchase price paid in Mexican Pesos in respect of appreciation warrants underlying ADWs purchased in the offer into U.S. Dollars at an exchange rate available to it on the payment date for subsequent delivery to you. Neither we nor the U.S. tender agent are responsible for the U.S. tender agent in fact being able to convert Mexican Pesos received for U.S. Dollars, as a result of exchange controls or otherwise, or for the exchange rate at which such conversion ultimately occurs. There may also be tax consequences to receiving the purchase price in the offer, particularly, if you tender appreciation warrants, rather than ADWs, in the offer and you are a non-resident of Mexico for tax purposes. See “Special Factors—8. Income Tax Consequences,”“The Offer—1. Number of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Price,” “—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs,” “—4. Purchase of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Payment of Purchase Price.”

 

How many appreciation warrants and ADWs will CEMEX purchase in all?

 

We will purchase at the selected purchase price all appreciation warrants and ADWs that are tendered at or below the selected purchase price and not properly withdrawn, including appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered by persons that are not eligible holders. However, for purposes of determining the purchase price, the prices at which appreciation warrants and ADWs beneficially owned by persons that are not eligible holders are tendered will not be taken into account. As of November 5, 2003, of the 103,790,945 outstanding appreciation warrants, 30,708,913 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) were held by our subsidiaries and 4,217,516 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) were held by the employee pension funds. We intend for our subsidiaries and the employee pension funds to tender all their appreciation warrants and ADWs in the tender offer. As of November 5, 2003, our executive officers and directors as a group beneficially owned an aggregate of 12,248,263 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs), which represent approximately 11.80% of the outstanding appreciation warrants. Our executive officers, directors, subsidiaries and the employee pension funds are not considered eligible holders and the prices at which they tender appreciation warrants and ADWs beneficially owned by them will not be taken into account for purposes of determining the purchase price; however, we will purchase all appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered by them at or below our selected purchase price.

Table of Contents

All appreciation warrants purchased by CEMEX in the offer will be cancelled. ADWs purchased by CEMEX Inc. in the offer may be held until maturity or may be transferred to CEMEX.

 

Is there a minimum number of appreciation warrants or ADWs that must be tendered in order for CEMEX to purchase any appreciation warrants?

 

No. The offer is not conditioned on any minimum number of appreciation warrants or ADWs being tendered. The offer is, however, subject to other conditions. See “The Offer—1. Number of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Price” and “—5. Conditions of the Offer.”

 

If I tender my appreciation warrants or ADWs, how many of my appreciation warrants or ADWs will CEMEX purchase?

 

We will purchase all appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered and not properly withdrawn at or below the purchase price we select, including appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered by persons that are not eligible holders. We will return all appreciation warrants and ADWs not purchased as promptly as practicable after the offer is completed or terminated.

 

How will CEMEX pay for the appreciation warrants and ADWs?

 

We would need a maximum of Ps840.7 million (U.S.$75.4 million) to purchase all the validly issued appreciation warrants outstanding (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) at the maximum price of Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW), other than the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by our subsidiaries. For purposes of calculating the maximum aggregate purchase price, the 30,708,913 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by our subsidiaries have been excluded as the intercompany transaction will have no financial or accounting effect on us. We will use cash on hand from the proceeds of our October 2003 public equity offering to pay for all appreciation warrants and ADWs we purchase in the offer.

 

How long do I have to tender my appreciation warrants or ADWs to CEMEX?

 

You will have at least until 4:15 p.m., New York City time, which is 3:15 p.m., Mexico City time, on December 17, 2003 to decide whether to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs in the offer, but we may choose to extend the expiration date at any time for a period of up to three months, subject to applicable regulatory approvals. We cannot assure you that we will extend the offer or, if we extend it, for how long it will be extended. There will be no guaranteed delivery procedures permitting delivery after the expiration date. See “The Offer—1. Number of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Price” and “—12. Extension of the Offer; Termination; Amendment.”

 

How will I be notified if the offer is extended?

 

If we extend the offer, we will inform Acciones y Valores de México, S.A. de C.V., Casa de Bolsa, Integrante del Grupo Financiero Banamex, or Accival, which is the Mexican dealer manager for the offer, and Citibank, N.A., or Citibank, which is the U.S. tender agent for the offer, of that fact and will make a public announcement of the extension, not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, which is 8:00 a.m., Mexico City time, on the business day after the day on which the offer was scheduled to expire. See “The Offer—12. Extension of the Offer; Termination; Amendment.”

 

How do I tender my appreciation warrants or ADWs?

 

To tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs, you must complete one of the actions described under “Important” on the inside front cover of this document before the offer expires. You may also contact the

Table of Contents

information agent or your broker for assistance. The contact information for the information agent is on the back page of this document. See “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs” and the instructions to the Indeval participant tender letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable.

 

Once I have tendered appreciation warrants or ADWs in the offer, can I change my mind?

 

Yes. If you tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs and change your mind, you may withdraw previously tendered appreciation warrants or ADWs, as the case may be, at any time before the offer expires. In addition, after the offer expires, if we have not accepted for payment the appreciation warrants or ADWs you have tendered to us, you may withdraw your appreciation warrants or ADWs, as the case may be, at any time after 4:15 p.m., New York City time, which is 3:15 p.m., Mexico City time, on January 15, 2004. See “The Offer—3. Withdrawal Rights.”

 

To withdraw appreciation warrants, you must timely deliver a written notice of your withdrawal to the Mexican broker-dealer acting on your behalf in the offer and instruct such Mexican broker-dealer to deliver a notice of withdrawal to the Mexican dealer manager at its address appearing on the back page of this document. To withdraw ADWs, you must timely deliver a written notice of your withdrawal to the U.S. tender agent at its address appearing on the back page of this document. Your notice of withdrawal must specify your name, the number of appreciation warrants or ADWs to be withdrawn and the name of the registered holder of the appreciation warrants or ADWs, as the case may be. Some additional requirements apply if certificates for ADWs to be withdrawn have been delivered to the U.S. tender agent. See “The Offer—3. Withdrawal Rights.”

 

What does CEMEX’s board of directors think of the offer?

 

Our board of directors has approved the offer. However, neither we nor our board of directors, CEMEX, Inc., the U.S. dealer manager, the Mexican dealer manager, the U.S. tender agent or the information agent or their respective affiliates is making any recommendation regarding whether you should tender or not tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs or at what price you should choose to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs. You must decide whether to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs and, if so, how many appreciation warrants or ADWs to tender and the price or prices at which you will tender them. You should discuss whether to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs with your broker or other financial or tax advisor.

 

Our directors are entitled to participate in the offer; however, for purposes of determining the purchase price, the prices at which they tender appreciation warrants or ADWs beneficially owned by them will not be taken into account.

 

Why is CEMEX making the offer?

 

The offer has two principal purposes: first, to simplify the ability of third parties to value CEMEX on a per-share basis by reducing the impact of, and uncertainty created by, the outstanding appreciation warrants and ADWs; and second, to offer holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs the opportunity to sell their appreciation warrants or ADWs at or above a price selected by them (within the price range set by us in the offer) without the usual transaction costs and liquidity limitations associated with open-market sales of the appreciation warrants and ADWs.

 

Does the offer relate to CEMEX’s outstanding CPOs or ADSs?

 

No. The offer relates solely to our appreciation warrants and ADWs. The offer does not relate to any of our other securities, including our outstanding CPOs or ADSs. After the offer is completed, our CPOs will continue to be listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange and our ADSs will continue to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

What is the market value of my appreciation warrants and ADWs as of a recent date?

 

The appreciation warrants are listed and traded on the Mexican Stock Exchange under the symbol “CMX412E-DC062.” The ADWs representing appreciation warrants are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CX-WSB.”

 

On November 14, 2003, the last full trading day on the Mexican Stock Exchange prior to the commencement of the offer, the last reported sales price of the appreciation warrants on the Mexican Stock Exchange was Ps5.70 (U.S.$0.51) per appreciation warrant. On November 14, 2003, the last full trading day on the New York Stock Exchange prior to the commencement of the offer, the closing price per ADW reported on the New York Stock Exchange was $2.35 per ADW. We urge you to obtain current market quotations for the appreciation warrants and ADWs. For trading information regarding the appreciation warrants and ADWs, you may call Global Bondholder Services Corporation, our information agent for the offer, toll free at (866) 470-4100, or Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the U.S. dealer manager for the offer, at (212) 816-6849. See “The Offer—6. Price Range of Appreciation Warrants.”

 

How does the purchase price compare to the amounts I could receive under the terms of the appreciation warrants and ADWs?

 

Under the terms of the appreciation warrants and ADWs, you are entitled to receive any appreciation value of the appreciation warrants and ADWs on December 21, 2004, the maturity date for the appreciation warrants and ADWs or upon the occurrence of a mandatory early redemption of the appreciation warrants and ADWs. Any appreciation value to which you are entitled under the appreciation warrants and ADWs will be distributed to you in form of CPOs if you hold appreciation warrants or ADSs if you hold ADWs. Whether and to the extent you will receive any appreciation value depends on the market price of our CPOs. If no mandatory redemption of the appreciation warrants and ADWs takes place, unless the market price of our CPOs on December 21, 2004 is above the strike price for the appreciation warrants, which is approximately U.S.$5.45 (Ps60.68), your appreciation warrants and ADWs will expire and you will receive nothing. If the market price of our CPOs on December 21, 2004 exceeds the strike price, you will receive an appreciation value under the appreciation warrants and ADWs in an amount equal to the difference between the market price and the strike price. In order for you to receive an appreciation value under the appreciation warrants and ADWs in an amount equal to Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW), the minimum price we will pay in the offer, the market price of our CPOs on December 21, 2004 would have to be approximately Ps65.31 per CPO. In order for you to receive an appreciation value under the appreciation warrants and ADWs in an amount equal to Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW), the maximum price we will pay in the offer, the market price of our CPOs on December 21, 2004 would have to be approximately Ps68.03 per CPO. If on any date prior to December 21, 2004 the market price of our CPOs equals or exceeds the triggering level for the appreciation warrants, which is approximately U.S.$7.26 (Ps80.91), the appreciation warrants and ADWs will be mandatorily redeemed by us and you will receive U.S.$2.00 (Ps22.29) per appreciation warrant (U.S.$10.00 (Ps111.43) per ADW), which is the maximum appreciation value you could receive under the appreciation warrants and ADWs. For a summary description of the important terms of the appreciation warrants, see Annex A “Key Terms of Appreciation Warrants.”

 

Will I have to pay brokerage commissions or stock transfer taxes if I tender my appreciation warrants or ADWs in the offer?

 

You will not need to pay any brokerage commissions in connection with the tender of appreciation warrants in the offer itself, but you may need to pay fees to your agent or the relevant Mexican broker-dealer, depending upon your arrangements. Also, you will not be obligated to pay any stock transfer taxes in connection with a tender of appreciation warrants.

Table of Contents

If you are a registered holder of ADWs and tender your ADWs directly to the U.S. tender agent, you will not need to pay any brokerage commissions or stock transfer taxes. If you hold ADWs through a broker or bank, however, you should ask your broker or bank whether you will be charged a fee to tender your ADWs. See “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.”

 

If you instruct the U.S. tender agent in the letter of transmittal to make the payment for the ADWs to the registered holder, you will not incur any brokerage commissions or stock transfer taxes. See “The Offer—4. Purchase of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Payment of Purchase Price.”

 

What are the tax consequences of tendering appreciation warrants and ADWs?

 

Holders of appreciation warrants may be required to pay taxes in Mexico in connection with a tender of appreciation warrants in the offer, particularly if such holders are non-residents of Mexico for tax purposes. Holders of ADWs who are non-residents of Mexico for tax purposes will not be required to pay any taxes in Mexico in connection with a tender of ADWs to CEMEX, Inc. in the offer. See “Special Factors—8. Income Tax Consequences—Mexican Tax Consequences.”

 

A U.S. holder, as defined in this document, will generally be subject to U.S. federal income taxation upon the receipt of cash from us in exchange for the appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered. The cash received will be treated as a sale or exchange eligible for capital gains treatment. See “Special Factors—8. Income Tax Consequences—U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.”

 

What are the effects of the offer on the market for the appreciation warrants and ADWs?

 

Depending on the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered and accepted in the offer, the appreciation warrants and the ADWs may be held by fewer than 300 persons. Consequently, the appreciation warrants and the ADWs may be subject to delisting from the New York Stock Exchange; however, the appreciation warrants will continue to be listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange. If the ADWs are delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, we may decide to terminate the ADW deposit agreement under which the ADWs are issued, which would further reduce the liquidity of the ADWs and eliminate the ability to trade and settle the trades of ADWs. In addition, the ADWs and appreciation warrants may be eligible for deregistration under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act.

 

If I decide not to tender, how will the offer affect my appreciation warrants or ADWs?

 

If our appreciation warrants and ADWs are delisted from the New York Stock Exchange following completion of the offer, there would likely be no active public market in which to trade your ADWs; however, the appreciation warrants will continue to be publicly traded on the Mexican Stock Exchange.

 

If we terminate the registration of our ADWs and appreciation warrants under the Exchange Act following completion of the offer, we will continue to be required to file or submit reports, such as annual reports on Form 20-F and current reports on Form 6-K, with the SEC.

 

Who can I talk to if I have questions about the offer?

 

You can call Global Bondholder Services Corporation toll free at (866) 470-4100 or Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at (212) 816-6849. Global Bondholder Services Corporation is acting as the information agent for the offer and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. is acting as the U.S. dealer manager for the offer.

SPECIAL FACTORS

 

1. Background of the Offer

 

On September 25, 2003, our management informed our board of directors of the possibility of repurchasing our appreciation warrants and ADWs by means of an issuer tender offer, depending on the outcome of our non-dilutive equity offering and on the liquidation of forward contracts relating to the securities underlying the offering. At meetings on October 17, 2003 and October 22, 2003, management was provided with information from special counsel regarding a potential issuer tender offer.

 

On October 30, 2003, the board of directors met to review and consider the proposed transaction. At that meeting, management presented all relevant information in respect of the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction. Management also provided the board of directors with information regarding the proposed price range of Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW) to Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW). The board, by unanimous vote, determined to approve the offer.

 

2. Purposes and Reasons for the Offer

 

The offer has two principal purposes: first, to simplify the ability of third parties to value CEMEX on a per-share basis by reducing the impact of, and uncertainty created by, the outstanding appreciation warrants and ADWs; and second, to offer holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs the opportunity to sell their appreciation warrants or ADWs at or above a price selected by them (within the price range set by us in the offer) without the usual transaction costs and liquidity limitations associated with open-market sales of the appreciation warrants and ADWs.

 

Based upon the current market price of our CPOs and ADSs, we believe that the purchase of appreciation warrants and ADWs is an attractive use of funds on behalf of our shareholders and is consistent with our long-term goal of increasing value for holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs as well as for our shareholders.

 

After evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of the offer as a way to attempt to maximize shareholder value, we believe that the purchase of appreciation warrants and ADWs pursuant to the offer is a positive action that is intended to accomplish the desired objectives. Given the current illiquidity in the trading market for our appreciation warrants and ADWs, the board determined this was a better alternative than attempting to repurchase our appreciation warrants and ADWs through small open market repurchases.

 

The offer will provide holders of appreciation warrants or ADWs who are considering a sale of all or a portion of their appreciation warrants or ADWs the opportunity to determine the price or prices (not greater than Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW) nor less than Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW) ) at which they are willing to sell their appreciation warrants or ADWs and, if any such appreciation warrants or ADWs are purchased pursuant to the offer, to sell those appreciation warrants or ADWs for cash without the usual transaction costs associated with open-market sales.

 

For holders of appreciation warrants or ADWs who do not tender, there is no assurance that the price of the appreciation warrants and ADWs will not trade below the price being offered pursuant to the offer, nor is there any assurance that there will be an active public market in which to trade appreciation warrants or ADWs. For holders of appreciation warrants or ADWs who do tender, the appreciation value of the appreciation warrants and ADWs upon maturity may be greater than the price being offered pursuant to the offer; also, for holders of appreciation warrants who do not tender, the appreciation warrants and ADWs may be mandatorily redeemed by us if the market price of our CPOs reaches the triggering level for the appreciation warrants and ADWs, in which case the appreciation value would be U.S.$2.00 (Ps22.29) per appreciation warrant (U.S.$10.00 (Ps111.43) per ADW). For a summary description of the important terms of the appreciation warrants, see Annex A “Key Terms of Appreciation Warrants.”

Table of Contents

Neither we nor our board of directors, CEMEX, Inc., the U.S. dealer manager, the Mexican dealer manager, the U.S. tender agent, the information agent or their respective affiliates make any recommendation to any holder of appreciation warrants or ADWs as to whether to tender or not tender any appreciation warrants or ADWs or as to the price or prices at which holders of appreciation warrants or ADWs may choose to tender their appreciation warrants or ADWs. We have not authorized any person to make any such recommendation. Holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs should carefully evaluate all information in the offer, consult their own investment and tax advisors, and make their own decisions about whether to tender appreciation warrants or ADWs and, if so, how many appreciation warrants or ADWs to tender and the price or prices at which to tender.

 

3. Fairness of the Offer

 

We believe the offer is fair and equitable and in the best interests of CEMEX and all holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs, including unaffiliated holders. We took into account a number of factors, including the following, in reaching our belief that the offer is fair and in the best interest of CEMEX and of all holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs, including unaffiliated holders:

 

  (i)   Our financial condition and results of operations, including our earnings per share and capital levels for the year ended December 31, 2002 and the first nine months of 2003 as well as our published earnings targets for the full year 2003.

 

  (ii)   Our calculation of the theoretical value of an appreciation warrant on November 15, 2003, computed using the Black-Scholes pricing model, assuming a volatility of 35%, a risk-free rate of 1.3%, a dividend yield of 0% and the highest sales price of our ADSs on the New York Stock Exchange during September 2003, which was U.S.$26.20, translated into Pesos at an exchange rate of Ps11.13 to U.S.$1.00, which was the Peso/Dollar spot exchange rate reported by Bloomberg on November 12, 2003.

 

         The Black-Scholes pricing model is one of a number of valuation models that have been developed to estimate the value of options and other equity-linked securities based on assumed levels of volatility, interest rates and dividend rates in the future, and therefore the estimated valuation that the Black-Scholes model produces depends on judgments or approximations about these future events. However, the Black-Scholes model and other similar models are intended to estimate the value of options and other equity-linked securities that are both freely transferable and held by a financial institution or similar entity that has the ability to enter into offsetting hedging transactions. Given the limited liquidity of our appreciation warrants and ADWs and the nature of the holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs, there is no guarantee that our appreciation warrants and ADWs have either of these characteristics.

 

  (iii)   The percentage by which the per appreciation warrant (or per ADW) price to be paid in the offer exceeds recent trading prices and estimated trading values.

 

  (iv)   The likelihood of payments being made under the appreciation warrants at their scheduled maturity in December 2004 or upon an earlier mandatory redemption.

 

  (v)   The likelihood that the transaction would be consummated and therefore reduce the number of CPOs and ADSs that would be deliverable upon maturity or early redemption of the appreciation warrants and ADWs.

 

  (vi)   The fact that the offer is a voluntary transaction in which holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs may or may not participate.

 

  (vii)   The limited trading market for our appreciation warrants and ADWs, including limited liquidity, relatively low prices and trading volume.

Table of Contents

In view of the wide variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the offer, we have found it impractical to, and therefore have not, quantified or otherwise attempted to assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching our belief that the offer is fair and equitable and in the best interests of CEMEX and all holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs. We have also relied on the advice of Citigroup with respect to the pricing and structure of the offer set forth below under “Special Factors—4. View of Financial Advisor.”

 

In addition, we believe that our decision to exclude from the price determination formula the prices at which appreciation warrants or ADWs are tendered by our executive officers, directors, subsidiaries and the employee pension funds ensures that the modified “Dutch Auction” pricing dynamics are driven solely by independent holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs.

 

Our board of directors, a majority of whom are non-employee directors, has unanimously approved the offer. Our non-employee directors have not retained an unaffiliated representative to act solely on behalf of the unaffiliated holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs for purposes of negotiating terms of the offer. The offer does not require the approval of a majority of unaffiliated holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs.

 

4. View of Financial Advisor

 

In October 2003, we retained Citigroup, an investment banking firm, on the basis of its experience in the United States and global markets, as U.S. dealer manager for the offer and to advise us as to certain issues related to the proposed pricing and structure of the offer.

 

Citigroup reviewed our proposed structure and pricing for a cash tender offer for the appreciation warrants and ADWs and certain precedent transactions and publicly available information. Based on that and Citigroup’s experience in transactions of this type, Citigroup believes that the proposed modified Dutch auction procedure facilitates a market driven price determination that would reflect the views of warrant holders regarding the appropriate value of the appreciation warrants and ADWs. The exclusion of the tender of management and company-owned warrants from the price determination procedure ensures that the tender pricing dynamics are driven by independent warrant holders only.

 

The appreciation warrant prices of Ps5.10 to Ps8.10 reflect a range with a minimum price that is indicative of recent market prices of the appreciation warrants (on November 14, 2003, the closing price of the appreciation warrants on the Mexican Stock Exchange was Ps5.70 per appreciation warrant) and the maximum appreciation warrant price indicative of CEMEX’s belief as to the value of the appreciation warrants and ADWs if the market price of the ADSs exceeds U.S.$26.20. Citigroup believes that the maximum price is a reasonable attempt to provide a financial incentive for holders to tender appreciation warrants and ADWs in a situation where the price of the CPOs and ADSs appreciates back to its high trading price range that occurred in September 2003.

 

In conducting its review, Citigroup reviewed and relied upon (i) a draft of the Schedule TO relating to the proposed tender offer, which Citigroup assumed would correspond in all material respects to the Schedule TO filed with the SEC; (ii) publicly available information with respect to the historical trading prices of the appreciation warrants, the ADWs, the CPOs and the ADSs; and (iii) certain precedent transactions.

 

Citigroup will not be separately compensated for providing us with this advice apart from its compensation as U.S. dealer manager for the offer. In the past, Citigroup has provided investment banking and advisory services for us from time to time for which its has received customary fees and expenses. Citigroup may, from time to time, engage in transactions with and perform services for us in the ordinary course of its business.

5. Our Plans After the Offer.

 

It is expected that following the offer, our business and operations will be continued substantially as they are currently being conducted by management. Except for the offer and as otherwise described in this document or in the documents incorporated by reference herein, we do not have any present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in:

 

    an extraordinary transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving us or any of our subsidiaries,

 

    a purchase, sale or transfer of an amount of our assets or any of our subsidiaries’ assets that would be material to us and our subsidiaries taken as a whole,

 

    a material change in our present dividend rate or policy, or in our indebtedness or capitalization,

 

    a change in our present board of directors or management,

 

    a material change in our corporate structure or business, or

 

    a change in our by-laws or other governing documents or an action that could impede the acquisition of control of us.

 

At the completion of the offer, depending on the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered and accepted in the offer, the appreciation warrants and the ADWs may be held by fewer than 300 persons. Consequently, the appreciation warrants and the ADWs may be subject to delisting from the New York Stock Exchange. In addition, the ADWs and appreciation warrants may be eligible for deregistration under the Exchange Act. See “Special Factors—6. “Effects of the Offer” below and “The Offer—10. Effects of the Offer on the Market for Our Appreciation Warrants; Registration Under the Exchange Act.”

 

Although we do not currently have any plans, other than as described in this document, that relate to or would result in any of the events discussed above, as we continue to evaluate opportunities for increasing shareholder value we may undertake or plan actions that relate to or could result in one or more of these events.

 

6. Effects of the Offer

 

As we described above, the offer will reduce the number of issued and outstanding appreciation warrants and ADWs. Depending on the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered and accepted in the offer, the appreciation warrants and the ADWs may be subject to delisting from the New York Stock Exchange. In the event the appreciation warrants and ADWs are delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, the appreciation warrants and ADWs outstanding after the offer may not be admitted to trading or quotation on any U.S. national securities exchange or association, and there will be limited trading information and market liquidity regarding the ADWs; however, the appreciation warrants will continue to be listed and traded on the Mexican Stock Exchange.

 

You may be able to sell appreciation warrants and ADWs that you do not tender or that are otherwise not purchased in the offer. We cannot predict or assure you, however, as to the price at which you will be able to sell your appreciation warrants or ADWs, which may be higher or lower than the purchase price paid by us in the offer. Consummation of the offer will further reduce the liquidity of the appreciation warrants and ADWs, and there can be no assurance that holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs, will be able to find willing buyers for their appreciation warrants or ADWs after the offer. In addition, if the ADWs are delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, as discussed above, we may decide to terminate the ADW deposit agreement under which the ADWs are issued, which would further reduce the liquidity of the ADWs and eliminate the ability to trade and settle the trades of ADWs. See “The Offer—10. Effects of the Offer on the Market for our Appreciation Warrants; Registration under the Exchange Act.”

 

11


Table of Contents

Following completion of the offer, we may repurchase additional appreciation warrants and ADWs in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Future purchases may be on terms that are more or less favorable to holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs than the offer. However, SEC Rules 14e-5 and 13e-4 generally prohibit us and our affiliates from purchasing any appreciation warrants outside of the offer until ten business days after the expiration date of the offer, although there are some exceptions. Any future purchases will depend on many factors, which include market conditions and the condition of our business.

 

7. Interest of Directors and Executive Officers; Transactions and Arrangements Concerning Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.

 

Interest of Directors and Executive Officers

 

Information about our directors and executive officers, including information relating to their beneficial ownership of appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) is set forth in Schedule I to this document. As of November 5, 2003, our executive officers and directors as a group beneficially owned an aggregate of 12,248,263 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs), which represent approximately 11.80% of the outstanding appreciation warrants.

 

Our directors and executive officers are entitled to participate in the offer; however, for purposes of determining the purchase price, they are not considered eligible holders and the prices at which they tender appreciation warrants or ADWs beneficially owned by them will not be taken into account.

 

Repurchases of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs

 

On February 12, 2003, Centro Distribuidor de Cemento, S.A. de C.V., or CEDICE, one of our wholly-owned Mexican subsidiaries, purchased 4,306,209 appreciation warrants at price of Ps3.70 per appreciation warrant. On April 11, 2003, CEDICE purchased 327,303 ADWs (representing 1,636,515 appreciation warrants) at price of U.S.$1.618 per ADW (Ps3.61 per appreciation warrant). On April 14, 2003, CEDICE purchased 22,794,504 appreciation warrants) at price of Ps3.70 per appreciation warrant. On April 28, 2003, CEDICE purchased 52,826 ADWs (representing 264,130 appreciation warrants) at price of U.S.$1.618 per ADW (Ps3.61 per appreciation warrant).

 

Recent Transactions in Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.

 

On October 15, 2003, Jorge Garcia Segovia, a member of our board of directors, purchased 49,000 appreciation warrants on the Mexican Stock Exchange at a price of Ps4.95 per appreciation warrant. Other than this transaction, based on our records and information provided to us by our directors, executive officers, associates and subsidiaries, neither we, nor any of our associates or subsidiaries, nor any of our directors or executive officers, have effected any transactions in our appreciation warrants or ADWs during the 60 days prior to the date of this document.

 

Transactions and Arrangements Concerning CEMEX’s Securities

 

Neither we nor our executive officers and directors are party to any arrangement with respect to the appreciation warrants and ADWs that are the subject of the offer. However, we, our executive officers and directors are, respectively, parties to agreements involving other classes of our securities. These arrangements are described below.

 

Lock-Up Agreements.    In connection with our October 2003 public equity offering, we and our executive officers and directors have agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to offer, sell or otherwise dispose of or hedge any shares of our common stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock for a period of 90 days from October 16, 2003, without the prior written consent of the underwriters of that offering. This agreement does not apply to, among other things, our appreciation warrants and ADWs and our

 

12


Table of Contents

employee benefit plans, including the grant of securities or options thereunder, the delivery of securities pursuant thereto and the disposition by the recipient of any securities so delivered.

 

Employee Benefit Trust Agreements.    Our employee stock option plans have entered into the following agreements with us whereby we have agreed to provide them with sufficient CPOs (or funds to acquire CPOs) to satisfy their obligations to deliver CPOs to employees upon exercise of stock options:

 

    Trust Agreement number 110910-1 dated August 10, 1995 (as from time to time amended) between CEMEX (as settlor and beneficiary) and Banco Nacional de Mexico, S.A., Division Fiduciaria (as trustee); and

The trust paid CEDICE U.S.$9,664,706.63 for this option, which is open for 5 years from March 27, 2003.

 

CEMEX Asia Holdings Transaction.    On July 12, 2002, we entered into agreements to purchase 1,483,365 shares of CEMEX Asia Holdings, Ltd., or CAH, common stock (approximately 14.58% of the outstanding share capital) from several CAH investors in exchange for 28,195,213 CPOs (subject to anti-dilution adjustments), which exchange was originally scheduled to take place in four equal quarterly tranches commencing on March 31, 2003. The exchange of 63,572 of these CAH shares took place in three quarterly tranches commencing on March 31, 2003, with the exchange of the fourth tranche of 21,191 CAH shares scheduled to take place on December 31. 2003. In April 2003, we amended the terms of the July 12, 2002 agreements with respect to 1,398,602 of the CAH shares. Instead of purchasing those CAH shares in four equal quarterly tranches commencing on March 31, 2003, we agreed to purchase those CAH shares in four equal quarterly tranches commencing on March 31, 2004.

 

Equity Forward Contracts.    From time to time we enter into forward transactions in our CPOs or ADSs with banks and other financial institutions in order to cover our obligations to deliver CPOs or ADSs upon the future exercise of options granted under our employee stock option programs and our voluntary employee stock option programs and our obligation to deliver CPOs upon the exchange of CPOs for CAH shares as described above. Under these forward contracts, which are listed below, the banks agreed to sell to us on the respective maturity dates of these forward contracts the respective number of CPOs or ADS, as applicable, which these banks purchased in open market transactions, for the respective forward purchase price per CPO or ADS, as applicable. Upon liquidation and at our option, these forward contracts provide for physical settlement or net cash settlement. The forward settlement price payable at any time under these forward contracts is equal to the

 

13


Table of Contents

present value of the forward purchase price per share multiplied by the number of shares subject to the forward contract. At maturity, if these forward contracts are not settled or replaced, or if we default on these agreements, these banks may sell the CPOs or ADSs underlying these forward contracts.

8. Income Tax Consequences

 

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

 

The following summary describes the material U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to the offer. This summary is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Treasury regulations under the Internal Revenue Code, administrative pronouncements and judicial decisions, all as in effect as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary addresses only U.S. Holders (as defined below) that are entitled to tender their appreciation warrants or ADWs pursuant to the offer. This summary does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be important to you in light of your individual circumstances, for example, if you are an investor subject to special tax rules (such as a bank, thrift, real estate investment trust, regulated investment company, insurance company, dealer in securities or currencies, trader in securities who elects to apply a mark-to-market method of accounting, person whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, person who acquired the securities as compensation, expatriate or tax-exempt investor) or if you hold a security as a position in a “straddle,” as part of a “synthetic security” or “hedge,” as part of a “conversion transaction” or other integrated investment, or other than a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code. This summary also does not address the state, local or foreign tax consequences of participating in the offer.

 

For purposes of this summary, a “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of appreciation warrants or ADWs who is the owner of record of those securities and is for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

 

• an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

 

• a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (including the District of Columbia);

 

• an estate, the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or

 

15


Table of Contents

• a trust whose administration is subject to the primary supervision of a United States court and which has one or more U.S. persons who have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions.

 

If a partnership (including any entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds appreciation warrants or ADWs, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership.

 

Holders of appreciation warrants or ADWs are advised to consult with their tax advisors regarding the particular tax consequences to them of the offer and the consequences of participating or not participating in the offer in light of their particular tax situation and under state, local and foreign tax laws applicable to them.

 

Characterization of the Purchase. Our purchase of a U.S. Holder’s appreciation warrants or ADWs pursuant to the offer will be a taxable transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a consequence of the purchase, a U.S. Holder will be treated as having sold the U.S. Holder’s appreciation warrants or ADWs and will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash received under the offer (converted by the U.S. tender agent from Mexican Pesos into U.S. Dollars at an exchange rate available to it on the payment date) and the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its appreciation warrants or ADWs (as determined in U.S. dollars) surrendered in the exchange therefor. Gain or loss must be determined separately for each block of appreciation warrants or ADWs (appreciation warrants or ADWs acquired at the same cost in a single transaction) that is purchased by us from a U.S. Holder under the offer. A U.S. Holder may be able to designate, generally through its broker, which blocks of its appreciation warrants or ADWs it wishes to tender under the offer if less than all of its appreciation warrants or ADWs are tendered under the offer. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors concerning the mechanics and desirability of that designation.

 

Any gain or loss recognized will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the appreciation warrants or ADWs that were sold exceeds one year as of the date of purchase by us under the offer. Long-term capital gains recognized by an individual are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deduction of capital losses is subject to limitations. Gain recognized on the exchange usually will be treated as U.S. source gain for purposes of the foreign tax credit rules of U.S. tax law.

 

Gain recognized on the exchange of ADWs should not be subject to Mexican withholding tax. Gain recognized on the exchange of appreciation warrants, however, will be subject to Mexican withholding tax unless (i) we obtain a ruling from the Mexican taxing authority that the income tax treaty between the United States and Mexico, or the Treaty, exempts such gain from tax and (ii) at the time of the exchange, a U.S. Holder is able to provide either proof of U.S. residency in Form 6166 from the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, or a certified copy of the prior year’s tax return to the broker-dealer tendering the appreciation warrants on their behalf. See “Mexican Tax Consequences” below. A U.S. Holder may obtain Form 6166 by mailing a request for certification of U.S. residency to the IRS, Philadelphia Service Center, Foreign Certification Request, P.O. Box 16437, Philadelphia, PA 19114-0447 or faxing such a request to (212) 516-1035 or (212) 516-3412. A U.S. Holder may refer to IRS Publication 686 for a detailed discussion of residency certification procedures. No assurance can be given that a U.S. Holder will be able to obtain a Form 6166 from the IRS in time to participate in the offer.

 

If Mexican tax is imposed on the exchange of appreciation warrants in the offer, a U.S. Holder will not be permitted to offset the Mexican tax as a credit against its U.S. tax to the extent that the Mexican tax is refundable or is otherwise not considered a compulsory payment within the meaning of U.S. tax laws. This will depend in part upon the U.S. Holders eligibility for benefits under the Treaty.

 

U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the applicability of Mexican withholding tax on an exchange of appreciation warrants, their eligibility for benefits under the Treaty, the possibility of obtaining a refund from the Mexican taxing authority and their ability to claim a credit against U.S. tax for any Mexican tax withheld on an exchange of appreciation warrants.

Mexican Tax Consequences

 

The following is a summary of the principal consequences, under Mexico’s federal tax laws and regulations in effect on the date hereof, of the participation in the offer and the tendering of appreciation warrants to us and ADWs to CEMEX Inc. by a person that is deemed to be a non-resident of Mexico for Mexican tax purposes, whom we refer to as a “Foreign Holder.” This summary includes such principal Mexican tax consequences, but it does not purport to be a complete description of all tax consequences arising from participating in the offer or tendering appreciation warrants or ADWs by any such Foreign Holder. In addition, those consequences may vary depending upon the specific characteristics or the place of residence of the Foreign Holder.

 

This summary is based on Mexico’s federal tax laws and regulations in effect on the date hereof, all of which may change in the future, which may affect the accuracy or completeness of this summary. We will not and do not have any obligation to update this summary in the future.

 

For purposes of Mexican taxation, a Foreign Holder is a person that may not be deemed a resident of Mexico for tax purposes. A natural person is a resident of Mexico for tax purposes if he or she has established his or her home in Mexico, unless he or she has resided in another country for more than 183 calendar days, whether consecutive or not, during a calendar year and can demonstrate that he or she has become a resident of that country for tax purposes. A legal entity is a resident of Mexico if it is organized under Mexican law or it maintains the principal administration of its business or the effective location of its management in Mexico. A Mexican citizen is presumed to be a resident of Mexico unless such citizen can demonstrate the contrary. If a non-resident of Mexico is deemed to have a permanent establishment in Mexico for tax purposes, all income attributable to such permanent establishment will be subject to Mexican taxes, in accordance with the applicable Mexican tax laws.

 

Under Mexico’s federal tax laws, the tendering of ADWs to CEMEX Inc. by a Foreign Holder or the payment by CEMEX Inc. to a Foreign Holder of the purchase price for ADWs, will not be subject to Mexican withholding or similar taxes or to Mexican transfer or similar taxes.

 

Under Mexico’s federal tax laws, gains, if any, arising from the payment by us to a Foreign Holder of the purchase price for appreciation warrants, will be subject to Mexican withholding taxes imposed at a rate of twenty five percent (25%). Foreign Holders will be required to provide to the Mexican broker-dealer tendering the appreciation warrants on their behalf, to the satisfaction of such Mexican broker-dealer, the documentation or other evidence necessary to determine the gain to which such Mexican withholding taxes will apply.

 

If the Foreign Holder is a resident of a country deemed to maintain a preferential tax regime in accordance with the Mexican Income Tax Law (Ley del Impuesto sobre la Renta), the payment by us of the purchase price for the appreciation warrants, will be subject to Mexican withholding taxes imposed at a rate of forty percent (40%), without any deduction. For this purpose, Foreign Holders will be required to provide to the Mexican broker-dealer tendering the appreciation warrants on their behalf, to the satisfaction of such Mexican broker-dealer, documentation or other evidence necessary to determine their place of residency.

 

We intend to file a request for a ruling with the Mexican Ministry of Finance and Public Credit (Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público), or the Ministry, confirming that if the Foreign Holder resides in a country with

 

17


Table of Contents

which Mexico has entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation which is in effect, the payment made by us of the purchase price for the appreciation warrants to such Foreign Holder, will not be subject to Mexican withholding taxes, pursuant to the terms of such treaties. If the request for the ruling is resolved favorably by the Ministry, before the expiration date of the offer, Foreign Holders may take advantage of the benefits of the ruling, if such Foreign Holders provide evidence to the Mexican broker-dealer tendering the appreciation warrants on their behalf, that they reside in a country with which Mexico has entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation which is in effect. We believe that the only evidence of residence that will be acceptable will be (i) a certification of tax residency, issued by the relevant tax authority, or (ii) a certified copy of the last yearly tax return. We cannot assure you that such ruling will be obtained and, even if it is obtained, if evidence of residence in a country with which Mexico has entered into a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation which is in effect cannot be obtained by the relevant Foreign Holder, the withholding taxes specified above will apply.

 

Under Mexico’s federal tax laws, the tender of appreciation warrants by a Foreign Holder will not be subject to Mexican transfer or similar taxes.

 

The discussion set forth above is included for general information only. We urge you to consult your tax advisor to determine the particular tax consequences to you of the offer, including the applicability and effect of state, local and foreign tax laws.

THE OFFER

 

1. Number of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Price.

 

On the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer, we will purchase at the selected purchase price (as defined below) all appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) that are tendered (and not properly withdrawn in accordance with the procedures set forth under “The Offer—3. Withdrawal Rights”) at or below the selected purchase, which will be a single price not greater than Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW) nor less than Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW), in cash. All appreciation warrants we purchase in the offer will be purchased directly by us, and all ADWs we purchase in the offer will be purchased by CEMEX, Inc., our wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary.

 

The term “expiration date” with respect to the offer means 4:15 p.m., New York City time, which is 3:15 p.m., Mexico City time, on December 17, 2003, unless we, in our sole discretion, extend the period of time during which the offer will remain open, subject to applicable regulatory approvals. If extended by us, the term “expiration date” will mean the latest time and date at which the offer, as extended, will expire. See “The Offer—12. Extension of the Offer; Termination; Amendment” for a description of our right to extend, delay, terminate or amend the offer.

 

Holders desiring to tender appreciation warrants or ADWs must specify the price or prices, not greater than Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW) nor less than Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW), at which they are willing to sell their appreciation warrants or ADWs, as applicable. Prices may only be specified in increments of Ps0.30 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps1.50 per ADW). Tenders of appreciation warrants or ADWs of holders who do not specify a price will be rejected.

 

As soon as practicable following the expiration date, we will determine the purchase price for appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, which we refer to as the “selected purchase price,” using the following pricing formula:

 

The selected purchase price will be either:

 

  (1)   the lowest price that will enable us to purchase at least eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders on November 5, 2003 (or 45,293,003 appreciation warrants); or

 

  (2)   if less than eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders on November 5, 2003 (or 45,293,003 appreciation warrants) are validly tendered, the highest price at which any appreciation warrant (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) is validly tendered by an eligible holder.

 

For purposes of determining the selected purchase price only, appreciation warrants and ADWs beneficially owned by persons that are not eligible holders will not be taken into account. “Eligible holders” means all beneficial owners of appreciation warrants and ADWs, other than our executive officers, directors, subsidiaries and two of our employee pension funds over which we exercise investment discretion, which we refer to as the “employee pension funds.” As of November 5, 2003, of the 103,790,945 outstanding appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs), 56,616,253 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) were held by eligible holders. Holders desiring to tender appreciation warrants or ADWs must indicate on their Indeval participant tender letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable, whether they are eligible holders. Tenders of appreciation warrants or ADWs of holders who do not indicate that they are eligible holders will be deemed to be tendered by persons who are not eligible holders and the prices at which such appreciation warrants or ADWs were tendered will not be taken into account for purposes of determining the selected purchase price.

 

19


Table of Contents

We will purchase all appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered at prices at or below the selected purchase price and not properly withdrawn, including appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered, and not properly withdrawn, by persons that are not eligible holders. All appreciation warrants and ADWs we purchase will be purchased at the selected purchase price. However, we will not purchase any appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered at a price above the selected purchase price.

 

As soon as practicable following the expiration date, we will accept for payment and pay for, appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered (and not properly withdrawn) at or below the selected purchase price upon the terms and conditions of the offer. We will cancel all appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) we purchase in the offer.

 

All appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered and not purchased, including appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered at prices above the purchase price we select, will be returned to you at our expense as soon as practicable following the expiration date.

 

You can tender different portions of your appreciation warrants or ADWs at different prices. However, you may only submit one Indeval participant letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable, for appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered, even if you wish to tender portions of your appreciation warrants or ADWs at more than one price. The same appreciation warrants or ADWs cannot be tendered (unless properly withdrawn previously in accordance with the procedures described under “The Offer—3. Withdrawal Rights”) at more than one price. If you wish to ensure that your appreciation warrants or ADWs will be purchased, you should indicate on the Indeval participant letter, the letter of transmittal, or the agents’ message, applicable, that you will accept the minimum price of Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW). See “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.”

 

You may withdraw your appreciation warrants or ADWs from the offer by following the procedures described under “The Offer—3. Withdrawal Rights.”

 

If we:

 

    increase or decrease the range of prices to be paid for appreciation warrants, or

 

    decrease the number of appreciation warrants being sought in the offer,

 

then the offer must remain open, or will be extended, until at least ten business days from, and including, the date that notice of any such change is first published, sent or given in the manner described under “The Offer—12. Extension of the Offer; Termination; Amendment.” For purposes of the offer, a “business day” means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or United States federal holiday and consists of the time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00 midnight, Eastern time.

 

The offer is not conditioned on any minimum number of appreciation warrants or ADWs being tendered. The offer is, however, subject to other conditions discussed under “The Offer—5. Conditions of the Offer.”

 

2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs

Please refer to any materials forwarded to you by your agent to determine how you can timely instruct your agent to take these actions.

 

If you hold your ADWs in certificated form

 

If you hold your ADWs in certificated form, you will be able to tender those ADWs only if you tender your ADWs in the manner described below or arrange for an agent to hold your ADWs on your behalf in book-entry form.

Valid Tender of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs

 

In the case of appreciation warrants, your agent should arrange for a Mexican broker-dealer (casa de bolsa) that is an Indeval participant to receive and hold the appreciation warrants through its Indeval account on your behalf and to tender those appreciation warrants in the offer, in a transaction executed as a transfer (cruce) on the Mexican Stock Exchange, to the Mexican dealer manager, who will be acting on our behalf, at its account at Indeval and to deliver to the Mexican dealer manager an Indeval participant tender letter, in the format provided for such purpose, prior to the expiration date. In the event one or more brokers, dealers, banks, trust companies, custodians or other nominees act as an intermediary between your agent and the Mexican broker-dealer that is an Indeval participant, your agent should arrange for the intermediary to forward the tender instructions for the appreciation warrants to the appropriate Mexican broker-dealer that is an Indeval participant for such Mexican broker-dealer to follow the procedures described above.

 

In the case of ADWs held in book-entry form, your agent should arrange for the DTC participant holding the ADWs through its DTC account to tender those ADWs in the tender offer to the U.S. tender agent prior to the

 

21


Table of Contents

expiration date in accordance with the DTC procedures applicable to tendering in modified Dutch auctions. In the event one or more brokers, dealers, banks, trust companies, custodians or other nominees acts as an intermediary between your agent and that DTC participant, your agent should arrange to deliver the tender instructions for the ADWs to the appropriate DTC participant.

 

In the case of ADWs held in certificated form, you may tender the ADWs registered in your name on the books of the U.S. tender agent by delivering to the U.S. tender agent a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or a manually executed facsimile of it, together with the applicable signature guarantees from an eligible guarantor institution, and the certificate evidencing the ADWs specified in the accompanying letter of transmittal, in each case, on or prior to the expiration date.

 

Your agent should contact in advance the Mexican broker-dealer that is an Indeval participant or the DTC participant whom your agent will be instructing to deliver the securities and the accompanying tender documentation to the Mexican dealer manager or the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, to assure that all necessary arrangements are made with that participant in a timely manner to permit the delivery of the securities and the accompanying tender documentation to the Mexican dealer manager or the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, on or before the expiration date and in accordance with that participant’s procedures. You and your agent will be responsible for the risks in connection with the procedures of that participant, and we will have no liabilities or obligations in connection with those risks.

 

If you want to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs you must properly complete the pricing section of the Indeval participant tender letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable:

 

    If you wish to ensure that your appreciation warrants or ADWs will be purchased, you should check the box next to the minimum purchase price of Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (Ps25.50 per ADW) in the pricing section of the Indeval participant tender letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable. This means that you will accept the purchase price selected by us in accordance with the terms of the offer.

 

    If you wish to indicate a purchase price higher than the minimum purchase price (in multiples of Ps0.30 per appreciation warrant (Ps1.50 per ADW)) at which your appreciation warrants or ADWs are being tendered, you must check one box in the pricing section of the Indeval participant tender letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable, for each portion of your appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered. You should be aware that this election could mean that none of your appreciation warrants or ADWs will be purchased if you choose a price for those securities that is higher than the purchase price we select after the expiration date.

 

If you wish to tender portions of your appreciation warrants or ADWs at different prices, you may only submit one Indeval participant letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable, for appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered. However, the same appreciation warrants or ADWs cannot be tendered (unless properly withdrawn previously in accordance with the procedures described under “The Offer—3. Withdrawal Rights”) at more than one price. To tender appreciation warrants or ADWs properly, one and only one price box must be checked in the pricing section of the Indeval participant letter, letter of transmittal or agents’ message, as applicable, for each portion of your appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered.

 

If you tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs directly to the Mexican dealer manager or the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, you will not need to pay any brokerage commissions. If you hold appreciation warrants or ADWs through a broker or bank, however, you should ask your broker or bank to see if you will be charged a fee to tender your appreciation warrants or ADWs through the broker or bank.

(2) in the case of a tender of ADWs in book-entry form, when the U.S. tender agent receives both a duly completed agents’ message through the facilities of DTC at the U.S. tender agent’s DTC account stating the price(s) at which you are tendering ADWs through your broker and, in the case of a tender of ADWs into the eligible holder account, specifying that the relevant DTC participant is tendering on behalf of an eligible holder and confirmation of book-entry transfer of the ADWs into the U.S. tender agent’s applicable DTC account; or

 

(3) in the case of a tender of ADWs held in certificated form, when the U.S. tender agent receives a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or a manually executed facsimile of it stating the price at which you are tendering each ADW certificate representing ADWs and indicating whether you are an eligible holder, together with the applicable signature guarantees from an eligible institution, and the certificate evidencing the ADWs specified in the accompanying letter of transmittal, in each case, on or prior to the expiration date. If you hold less ADW certificates than the number of prices you wish to select for your ADWs to be purchased by us, you may contact Citibank, N.A., as the ADW depositary for instruction on how to receive (i) book-entry ADWs or (ii) the appropriate number of ADW certificates equal to the number of prices you wish to select for the sale of your ADWs. Your ADWs will not be validly tendered if (i) more than one box is checked and you are not tendering an ADW certificate evidencing the same number of ADWs opposite such box or (ii) no box is checked.

 

We reserve full discretion to resolve all questions as to tenders, including whether the documentation is complete, the date and time of receipt of a tender, the propriety of execution and delivery of any document or instruction, and other questions as to validity, form, eligibility or acceptability of any tender. We reserve the right to reject any tender not in proper form or otherwise not valid or the acceptance of which may, in the opinion of our counsel, be unlawful or to waive any irregularities or, in the reasonable discretion of our counsel, to waive any applicable conditions. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the tender offer will be final and binding. We shall not be obligated to give any notice of any defects or irregularities in tenders and shall not incur any liability for failure to give that notice. The U.S. tender agent and the Mexican dealer manager may, but shall not be obligated to, give notice to the tendering holders of any irregularities or defects in tenders, and shall not incur any liability for any failure to give that notice. Appreciation warrants and ADWs will not be deemed to have been duly or validly tendered unless and until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived. All improperly tendered securities will be returned without cost to the tendering holder promptly after the expiration date, unless the irregularities and defects of that tender are timely cured or waived, as follows:

 

    in the case of book-entry securities, by book-entry delivery through Indeval, in the case of appreciation warrants, or DTC, in the case of ADWs, to the accounts of the applicable Mexican broker-dealer Indeval participants or DTC participants; or

 

    in the case of ADWs held in certificated form, by mail to the addresses of those holders registered on the books of the U.S. tender agent for the ADWs.

 

Securities being tendered must be delivered to the Mexican dealer manager or the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, in accordance with the procedures described in this document on or before the expiration date. There will be no guaranteed delivery procedures associated with this offer permitting delivery after the expiration date.

 

Terms and Conditions of a Tender of Securities

 

Securities being tendered in the tender offer and either the completed Indeval participant tender letter, the completed DTC participant’s agents’ message or the completed and duly executed letter of transmittal must be received by the U.S. tender agent or the Mexican dealer manager, as applicable, in accordance with the terms described in this document by 4:15 p.m., New York City time, which is 3:15 p.m., Mexico City time, on December 17, 2003, unless we choose to extend the tender offer, subject to applicable regulatory approvals.

Your Representation and Warranty; Our Acceptance Constitutes an Agreement

 

A tender of appreciation warrants or ADWs under any of the procedures described above will constitute your acceptance of the terms and conditions of the offer, as well as your representation and warranty to us that:

 

    you have a “net long position” in the appreciation warrants or ADWs at least equal to the appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered within the meaning of Rule 14e-4 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act, and

 

    the tender of appreciation warrants or ADWs, as applicable, complies with Rule 14e-4.

 

It is a violation of Rule 14e-4 for a person, directly or indirectly, to tender securities for that person’s own account unless, at the time of tender, the person so tendering

 

    has a net long position equal to or greater than the amount tendered in the subject securities or securities immediately convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, the subject securities, and

 

    will deliver or cause to be delivered the securities in accordance with the terms of the tender offer.

 

Rule 14e-4 provides a similar restriction applicable to the tender or guarantee of a tender on behalf of another person.

 

Our acceptance for payment of appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered under the offer will constitute a binding agreement between you and us upon the terms and conditions of the offer described in this and related documents.

 

In addition, by signing and delivering a letter of transmittal or by instructing your agent to tender your securities in the tender offer, you are representing, warranting and agreeing that:

 

    you have received and read a copy of this document and understand and agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of the tender offer;

 

    you have full power and authority to tender your securities;

 

    you have assigned and transferred the securities to the U.S. tender agent or Mexican dealer manager, and irrevocably constitute and appoint the U.S. tender agent or Mexican dealer manager, as applicable, as your true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact to cause your securities to be tendered in the tender offer, that power of attorney being irrevocable and coupled with an interest, subject only to the right of withdrawal described in this document;

 

    your securities are being tendered, and will, when accepted by the U.S. tender agent or Mexican dealer manager, as applicable, be free and clear of all charges, liens, restrictions, claims, equitable interests and encumbrances, other than the claims of a holder under the express terms of the tender offer; and

 

    you will, upon our request or the request of the U.S. tender agent or Mexican dealer manager, as applicable, execute and deliver any additional documents necessary or desirable to complete the tender of the securities.

 

Your agent, by delivering, or causing to be delivered, those securities and the completed agents’ message or the completed Indeval participant tender letter, to the U.S. tender agent or Mexican dealer manager, respectively, is representing and warranting that you, as owner of the securities, have represented, warranted and agreed to each of the above.

 

Return of Unpurchased Appreciation Warrants and ADWs

 

If any tendered appreciation warrants or ADWs are not purchased, such unpurchased appreciation warrants or ADWs will be returned without cost to the tendering holder promptly after the expiration date as follows:

 

    in the case of book-entry securities, by book-entry delivery through Indeval, in the case of appreciation warrants, or DTC, in the case of ADWs, to the accounts of the applicable Mexican broker-dealer Indeval participants or DTC participants; or

 

25


Table of Contents
    in the case of ADWs held in certificated form, by mail to the corresponding addresses of those holders registered on the books of the U.S. tender agent for the ADWs.

 

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

 

A U.S. Holder whose appreciation warrants or ADWs are sold pursuant to the offer may be subject to information reporting. In addition, a U.S. Holder of appreciation warrants or ADWs may be subject to backup withholding on the proceeds from the sale of the appreciation warrants or ADWs pursuant to the offer unless such holder is an exempt recipient (such as a corporation) or provides to the paying agent such holder’s correct taxpayer identification number and certifies that such holder is exempt from or otherwise is not subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amount withheld under these rules will be creditable against the U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability.

 

For a discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences to tendering holders, see “Special Factors—8. Income Tax Consequences.”

 

3. Withdrawal Rights.

 

Appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered may be withdrawn at any time before the expiration of the offer and, unless accepted for payment by us after the expiration of the offer, may also be withdrawn at any time after 4:15 p.m., New York City time, which is 3:15 p.m., Mexico City time, on January 15, 2004. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3, tenders of appreciation warrants and ADWs are irrevocable.

 

For a withdrawal of appreciation warrants to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the Mexican broker-dealer acting on your behalf in the offer, and such Mexican broker-dealer must deliver a notice of withdrawal to the Mexican dealer manager at its address appearing on the back page of this document. For a withdrawal of ADWs to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the U.S. tender agent at its address appearing on the back page of this document. Any notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the tendering holder, the number of appreciation warrants or ADWs to be withdrawn and the name of the registered holder of the appreciation warrants or ADWs. If you tendered your appreciation warrants or ADWs through an agent and wish to withdraw your appreciation warrants or ADWs, you will need to make arrangements for withdrawal with your agent. Your ability to withdraw the tender of your appreciation warrants or ADWs will depend upon the terms of the arrangements you have made with your agent and, if your agent is not the Mexican broker-dealer Indeval participant tendering those appreciation warrants or the DTC participant tendering those ADWs, the arrangements between your agent and such Mexican broker-dealer Indeval participant or DTC participant , including any arrangements involving intermediaries between your agent and such Mexican broker-dealer Indeval participant or DTC participant.

 

The withdrawal of appreciation warrants can only be made through your agent; therefore, you should notify your agent of your intent in time for your agent to notify the Mexican broker-dealer acting on your behalf in the offer in writing.

 

If you tendered your ADWs in certificated form and wish to withdraw your ADWs, you will need to deliver to the U.S. tender agent a signed notice of withdrawal specifying the name of the registered holder and the serial numbers shown on the particular certificates evidencing the ADWs to be withdrawn. The U.S. tender agent will require that your signature on a notice of withdrawal be guaranteed by an eligible guarantor institution. If you tendered your ADWs pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer, the notice of withdrawal also must specify the name and the number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn appreciation warrants and must otherwise comply with DTC procedures.

 

The Mexican dealer manager or the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, will return to tendering holders all appreciation warrants and ADWs in respect of which it has received valid withdrawal instructions as soon as practicable after it receives of such instructions.

 

26


Table of Contents

All questions as to the form and validity (including the time of receipt) of any notice of withdrawal will be determined by us, and our determination will be final and binding. Neither we, nor any of the U.S. tender agent, the U.S. dealer manager, the Mexican dealer manager, the information agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

 

Withdrawals may not be rescinded, and any appreciation warrants or ADWs properly withdrawn will thereafter be deemed not validly tendered for purposes of the offer unless the withdrawn securities are properly re-tendered before the expiration date by following one of the procedures described under “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.”

 

If we extend the offer, if we are delayed in our purchase of appreciation warrants and ADWs or we are unable to purchase appreciation warrants and ADWs under the offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to our rights under the offer, the Mexican dealer manager and the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, may, subject to applicable law, retain tendered appreciation warrants or ADWs on our behalf, and such appreciation warrants or ADWs may not be withdrawn except to the extent tendering holders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described in this Section 3.

 

4. Purchase of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Payment of Purchase Price.

 

Upon the terms and conditions of the offer, as soon as practicable following the expiration date, we will:

 

    determine the purchase price we will pay for appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, taking into account the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs so tendered and the prices specified by tendering holders (other than appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered by persons who are not eligible holders); and

 

    accept for payment and pay for, and thereby purchase, appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered at prices equal to or below the selected purchase price (including appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered by persons who are not eligible holders) and not properly withdrawn.

 

For purposes of the offer, we will be deemed to have accepted for payment and therefore purchased appreciation warrants and ADWs that are validly tendered at or below the purchase price and not properly withdrawn, only when, as and if we give notice to the Mexican dealer manager or the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, of our acceptance of the appreciation warrants or ADWs for payment.

 

Upon the terms and conditions of the offer, as soon as practicable after the expiration date, we will accept for payment and pay a single per appreciation warrant purchase price for all appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered, if validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, at prices between Ps5.10 and Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (between the U.S.$ equivalents of Ps25.50 and Ps40.50 per ADW).

 

We will pay for appreciation warrants purchased pursuant to the offer by paying to each Mexican broker-dealer tendering appreciation warrants the aggregate purchase price for the appreciation warrants purchased from such Mexican broker-dealer, which will act as agent for the holders on whose behalf it tendered such appreciation warrants for the purpose of receiving payment from us and transmitting payment to such holders. We will pay for ADWs purchased pursuant to the offer by paying the aggregate purchase price for the ADWs to the U.S. tender agent, which will act as agent for tendering holders for the purpose of receiving payment from us and transmitting payment to the tendering holders. The U.S. tender agent will arrange for the conversion of the purchase price paid in Mexican Pesos in respect of appreciation warrants underlying ADWs purchased in the offer into U.S. Dollars at an exchange rate available to it on the payment date for subsequent delivery to you. Neither we nor the U.S. tender agent are responsible for the U.S. tender agent in fact being able to convert Mexican Pesos received for U.S. Dollars as a result of exchange controls or otherwise, or for the exchange rate at which such conversion ultimately occurs.

Table of Contents

We will not pay interest on the purchase price regardless of any delay in making such payment. In addition, if certain events occur, we may not be obligated to purchase appreciation warrants or ADWs in the offer. See the conditions to the offer under “The Offer—5. Conditions of the Offer.”

 

We will pay all stock transfer taxes, if any, payable on the transfer to us of appreciation warrants and ADWs purchased under the offer. If, however, (a) payment of the purchase price is to be made to any person other than the registered holder, (b) appreciation warrants or ADWs not tendered or rejected for purchase are to be registered in the name of any person other than the registered holder, or (c) certificates representing tendered ADWs are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the letter of transmittal, the amount of all stock transfer taxes, if any (whether imposed on the registered holder the other person or otherwise), payable on account of the transfer to the other person, will be deducted from the purchase price unless satisfactory evidence of the payment of the stock transfer taxes, or exemption therefrom, is submitted.

 

Any tendering U.S. holder or other payee who fails to complete fully, sign and return to the U.S. tender agent the substitute form W-9 included with the letter of transmittal may be subject to federal income backup withholding at the applicable rate on the gross proceeds paid to the holder or other payee under the offer. See “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.” Also see “Special Factors—8. Income Tax Consequences” regarding additional U.S. federal income tax consequences.

 

For accounting purposes, under generally accepted accounting principles in Mexico, the purchase price we pay for any appreciation warrants and ADWs we purchase in the offer will be recorded on our balance sheet as a decrease in stockholders’ equity and as a corresponding decrease in cash and temporary investments.

 

5. Conditions of the Offer.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of the offer, we will not be required to accept for payment, purchase or pay for any appreciation warrants tendered, and may terminate or amend the offer or may postpone the acceptance for payment of, or the purchase of and the payment for appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered, subject to applicable regulatory approvals, if, at any time on or after November 17, 2003 and before the expiration of the offer, including any extension of the expiration of the offer, any of the following events have occurred (or have been determined by us to have occurred) that, in our reasonable judgment makes it inadvisable for us to proceed with the offer or with acceptance for payment:

 

    there has been threatened, instituted or pending any action or proceeding by any government or governmental, regulatory or administrative agency, authority or tribunal or any other person, domestic or foreign, before any court, authority, agency or tribunal that directly or indirectly challenges the making of the offer, the acquisition of some or all the appreciation warrants and ADWs under the offer or otherwise relates in any manner to the offer, including the other conditions to the offer or which, in our reasonable judgment, would or might impair a contemplated purpose of the offer;

 

    there has been any action threatened, pending or taken, or approval withheld, or any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order or injunction threatened, proposed, sought, promulgated, enacted, entered, amended, enforced or deemed to be applicable to the offer or to us or any of our subsidiaries, by any court or any authority, agency or tribunal that, in our reasonable judgment, would or might directly or indirectly

 

  (i)   make the acceptance for payment of, or payment for, some or all the appreciation warrants and ADWs illegal or otherwise restrict or prohibit completion of the offer or impair a contemplated purpose of the offer; or

 

  (ii)   delay or restrict our ability, or render us unable, to accept for payment or pay for some or all the appreciation warrants and ADWs;

 

28


Table of Contents
    there has occurred any of the following:

 

  (i)   any general suspension of trading in, or limitation on prices for, securities on any national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter market in the United States or on the Mexican Stock Exchange;

 

  (ii)   the declaration of a banking moratorium or any suspension of payments in respect of banks in the United States or Mexico;

 

  (iii)   the commencement of a war, armed hostilities or other international or national calamity directly or indirectly involving the United States or Mexico;

 

  (iv)   any limitation (whether or not mandatory) by any governmental, regulatory or administrative agency or authority on, or any event, or any disruption or adverse change in the financial or capital markets generally or the market for loan syndications in particular, that, in our reasonable judgment, might affect, the extension of credit by banks or other lending institutions in the United States or Mexico;

 

  (v)   any significant decrease in the market price of our securities, including our CPOs and ADSs and appreciation warrants and ADWs, or any change in the general political, market, economic or financial conditions in the United States, Mexico or abroad that could, in our reasonable judgment, have a material adverse effect on our business, operations or prospects or the trading of our securities; or

 

  (vi)   any change or changes in the business, financial condition, assets, income, operations, prospects or equity ownership of us or our subsidiaries that, in our reasonable judgment, is or may be material and adverse to us or our subsidiaries.

 

The conditions to the offer are for our sole benefit and may be asserted by us regardless of the circumstances (including any action or inaction by us) giving rise to any such condition and, where permissible, may be waived by us, in whole or in part at any time up until the expiration of the offer in our sole discretion. Our failure at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights shall not be deemed a waiver of any right, and each right shall be deemed an ongoing right which may be asserted at any time up until the expiration of the offer. Any determination or judgment by us concerning the events described above will be final and binding on all parties.

 

6. Price Range of Appreciation Warrants and ADWs.

 

Our appreciation warrants are listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange under the symbol “CMX412E-DC062.” Our ADWs, each of which represents five appreciation warrants, are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CX.WSB.” The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the reported highest and lowest market quotations in nominal Pesos for appreciation warrants on the Mexican Stock Exchange and the high and low sales prices in Dollars for ADWs on the New York Stock Exchange.

7. Mexican Peso Exchange Rates.

 

Mexico has had no exchange control system in place since the dual exchange control system was abolished on November 11, 1991. The Mexican Peso has floated freely in foreign exchange markets since December 1994, when the Mexican Central Bank (Banco de Mexico) abandoned its prior policy of having an official devaluation band. Since then, the Peso has been subject to substantial fluctuations in value. The Peso depreciated against the Dollar by 22.7% in 1998, appreciated against the Dollar by 3.9% in 1999, depreciated against the Dollar by 1.16% in 2000, appreciated against the Dollar by 4.68% in 2001, depreciated against the Dollar by 13% in 2002 and depreciated against the Dollar by 5.99% in the first nine months of 2003. These percentages are based on the exchange rate that we use for accounting purposes, or the CEMEX accounting rate. The CEMEX accounting rate represents the average of three different exchange rates that are provided to us by Banco Nacional de México, S.A., or Banamex. For any given date, the CEMEX accounting rate may differ from the noon buying rate for Pesos in New York City published by the U.S. Federal Reserve Bank of New York. We cannot predict the value of the Peso or assure you that the Mexican government will not establish new exchange controls in the future.

 

The following table sets forth, for the periods and dates indicated, the end-of-period, average and high and low points of the CEMEX accounting rate as well as the noon buying rate for Pesos, expressed in Pesos per U.S.$1.00.

(1)   The average of the CEMEX accounting rate or the noon buying rate for Pesos, as applicable, on the last day of each full month during the relevant period.

 

The noon buying rate for Pesos on November 14, 2003 was Ps11.143 to U.S.$1.00 and the CEMEX accounting rate was Ps11.157 to U.S.$1.00.

 

The Mexican government does not currently restrict the ability of Mexicans or others to convert Pesos to Dollars, or vice versa. The Mexican Central Bank has consistently made foreign currency available to Mexican private sector entities, such as CEMEX, to meet their foreign currency obligations. Nevertheless, if renewed shortages of foreign currency occur, the Mexican Central Bank may not continue its practice of making foreign currency available to private sector companies and we may not be able to purchase the foreign currency we need to service our foreign currency obligations without substantial additional cost.

 

8. Source and Amount of Funds.

 

We would need a maximum of Ps840.7 million (U.S.$75.4 million) to purchase all the validly issued appreciation warrants outstanding (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) at the maximum price of Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW), other than the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by our subsidiaries. For purposes of calculating the maximum aggregate purchase price, the 30,708,913 appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by our subsidiaries have been excluded as the intercompany transaction will have no financial or accounting effect on us.

 

We will use cash on hand from the proceeds of our October 2003 public equity offering to pay for all appreciation warrants and ADWs we purchase in the offer.

We are a holding company engaged, through our operating subsidiaries, primarily in the production, distribution, marketing and sale of cement, ready-mix concrete and clinker. We are a global cement manufacturer with operations in North, Central and South America, Europe, the Caribbean, Asia and Africa. As of June 30, 2003, we had worldwide assets of Ps174.7 billion (U.S.$16.7 billion). On November 14, 2003, we had an equity market capitalization of approximately Ps92.0 billion (U.S.$8.3 billion).

 

We believe that we are one of the most efficient cement producers in the world. We believe we have achieved this competitive advantage through our significant utilization of technology throughout our entire organization, our superior operating practices, our turnaround expertise in newly acquired operations and our size as one of the largest cement companies in the world.

 

As of June 30, 2003, our main cement production facilities were located in Mexico, Spain, Venezuela, Colombia, the United States, Egypt, the Philippines, Thailand, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Panama, Nicaragua and Puerto Rico. As of June 30, 2003, our assets, cement plants and installed capacity, on an unconsolidated basis, were as set forth below. Installed capacity, which refers to theoretical annual production capacity, represents gray cement equivalent capacity, which counts each ton of white cement capacity as approximately two tons of gray cement capacity. It also includes our proportional interest in the installed capacity of companies in which we hold a minority interest.

10. Effects of the Offer on the Market for Our Appreciation Warrants and ADWs; Registration Under the Exchange Act.

 

Our purchase of appreciation warrants and ADWs in the offer will reduce the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs that might otherwise be traded publicly and may reduce the number of holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs. The appreciation warrants are currently traded on the Mexican Stock

 

33


Table of Contents

Exchange and the ADWs are currently traded on the New York Stock Exchange. There can be no assurance that holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs will be able to find willing buyers for their securities after the offer.

 

At the completion of the offer, depending on the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered and accepted in the offer, the appreciation warrants and the ADWs may be held by fewer than 300 persons. Consequently, the appreciation warrants and the ADWs may be subject to delisting from the New York Stock Exchange. In the event the appreciation warrants and ADWs are delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, the appreciation warrants and ADWs outstanding after the offer may not be admitted to trading or quotation on any U.S. national securities exchange or association, and there will be limited trading information and market liquidity regarding the ADWs; however, the appreciation warrants will continue to be listed and traded on the Mexican Stock Exchange. In addition, we may decide to terminate the ADW deposit agreement under which the ADWs are issued, which would further reduce the liquidity of the ADWs and eliminate the ability to trade and settle the trades of ADWs. Lastly, the ADWs and appreciation warrants may be eligible for deregistration under the Exchange Act. See “Special Factors—6. “Effects of the Offer” above.

 

11. Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals.

 

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act in the United States and the Mexican Securities Market Law (Ley de Mercado de Valores) and, in accordance with these requirements, file reports and information statements and other information with the SEC and the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission (Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores), or the CNBV, respectively. We have also filed a combined statement on Schedules TO and 13E-3 with the SEC under cover of Schedule TO and applicable tender offer documents with the CNBV, which includes additional information relating to the offer. In addition, we have filed the necessary documents and obtained the approval of the CNBV to conduct the offer as a public offer.

 

Except as otherwise described in this document, we are not aware of any license or regulatory permit material to our business that would be adversely affected by our acquisition of appreciation warrants and ADWs as contemplated by the offer or of any approval or other action by any government or governmental, administrative or regulatory authority or agency, domestic, foreign or supranational, that would be required for our acquisition or ownership of appreciation warrants and ADWs as contemplated by the offer. Should any such approval or other action be required, we presently contemplate that we will seek that approval or other action. We are unable to predict whether we will be required to delay the acceptance for payment of or payment for appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered in response to the offer pending the outcome of any such matter. There can be no assurance that any such approval or other action, if needed, would be obtained or would be obtained without substantial cost or conditions or that the failure to obtain the approval or other action might not result in adverse consequences to our business and financial condition.

 

12. Extension of the Offer; Termination; Amendment.

 

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, to extend the period of time during which the offer is open for up to three months, subject to applicable regulatory approvals, and to delay acceptance for payment of, and payment for, any appreciation warrants and ADWs by giving notice of such extension to the Mexican dealer manager and the U.S. tender agent and making a public announcement of such extension. We also reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate the offer and not accept for payment or pay for any appreciation warrants and ADWs not previously accepted for payment or paid for or, subject to applicable law, to postpone payment for appreciation warrants and ADWs if any conditions to the offer fail to be satisfied by giving notice of such termination or postponement to the Mexican and U.S. tender agents and making a public announcement of such termination or postponement. Our reservation of the right to delay acceptance for payment or to delay payment for appreciation warrants and ADWs which we have accepted for purchase is limited by Rule 13e-4(f)(5) promulgated under the Exchange Act, which requires that we must pay the consideration offered or return ADWs tendered promptly after termination or withdrawal of the offer.

Table of Contents

Subject to compliance with applicable law, we further reserve the right, in our sole discretion, and regardless of whether or not any of the events or conditions described under “The Offer—5. Conditions of the Offer” have occurred or are deemed by us to have occurred, to amend the offer in any respect, including, without limitation, by decreasing or increasing the consideration offered in the offer to holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs or by decreasing or increasing the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs being sought in the offer. Amendments to the offer may be made at any time and from time to time by public announcement, such announcement, in the case of an extension, to be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time which is 8:00 a.m., Mexico City time, on the next business day after the last previously scheduled or announced expiration date.

 

Without limiting the manner in which we may choose to make a public announcement, except as required by applicable law, we have no obligation to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public announcement other than by making a release through Business Wire, Dow Jones News Service or another comparable news service.

 

If we materially change the terms of the offer or the information concerning the offer, we will extend the offer to the extent required by Rules 13e-4(d)(2), 13e-4(e)(3) and 13e-4(f)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act. These rules and certain related releases and interpretations of the SEC provide that the minimum period during which a tender offer must remain open following material changes in the terms of the tender offer or information concerning the tender offer (other than a change in price or a change in percentage of securities sought) will depend on the facts and circumstances, including the relative materiality of such terms or information. If we undertake any of the following actions:

 

    increase or decrease the range of prices to be paid for the appreciation warrants and ADWs, or

 

    decrease the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs being sought in the offer, and

 

the offer is scheduled to expire at any time earlier than the expiration of a period ending on the tenth business day from, and including, the date that such notice of an increase or decrease is first published, sent or given to holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs in the manner specified in this Section 11, then the offer will be extended until the expiration of such period of ten business days.

 

13. Fees and Expenses.

 

We have retained Global Bondholder Services Corporation to act as our information agent in connection with the offer. Global Bondholder Services Corporation as information agent, may contact holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs by mail, telephone, facsimile, telex, telegraph, other electronic means and personal interviews, and may request brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies and other nominee holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs to forward materials relating to the offer to beneficial owners. Global Bondholder Services Corporation will receive reasonable and customary compensation in connection with the offer.

ANNEX A

 

KEY TERMS OF APPRECIATION WARRANTS

 

The following table sets forth the key terms of the appreciation warrants. In both 2002 and 2003, following our annual meetings of our shareholders, the terms of the appreciation warrants were adjusted in accordance with the terms of the warrant deed and the regulations of the Mexican Stock Exchange to reflect anti-dilution adjustments resulting from stock dividends paid to holders of our CPOs and ADS since holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs do not receive any dividends or distributions we pay to our shareholders. As a result of these anti-dilution adjustments, each appreciation warrant is entitled to the Appreciation Value related to 1.101752 CPOs.

 

Maturity Date

   December 21, 2004.

Average Price

   On any trading day, the average of the closing prices of one CPO, as published by the Mexican Stock Exchange, translated into U.S. Dollars at the Peso-Dollar FIX exchange rate, for each of the five consecutive trading days ending on such date. The Peso-Dollar FIX exchange rate is made available on each foreign exchange trading day by the Mexican Stock Exchange and published by the Mexican Central Bank on the business day immediately following each foreign exchange trading day in the Official Gazette of the Federation (Diario Oficial de la Federación).

Strike Price

   U.S.$5.445873.

Triggering Level

   U.S.$7.261165.

Appreciation Value

  

Holders of appreciation warrants will be entitled to receive for each appreciation warrant the following Appreciation Value:

 

On the Maturity Date, the Appreciation Value will equal the difference between the Average Price and the Strike Price multiplied by 1.101752 (to reflect the anti-dilution adjustments described above), if (1) a mandatory redemption has not occurred prior to the Maturity Date, and (2) the Average Price exceeds the Strike Price.

 

On an early redemption date, the Appreciation Value will equal the difference between the Triggering Level and the Strike Price multiplied by 1.101752 (to reflect the anti-dilution adjustments described above), provided that the Average Price as of the early redemption date equals or exceeds the Triggering Level. The Appreciation Value for the appreciation warrants will therefore be U.S.$2.00 per appreciation warrant on an early redemption date.

Mandatory Early Redemption

   The appreciation warrants will be mandatorily redeemed by us prior to the Maturity Date if the Average Price on any trading day equals or exceeds the Triggering Level.

Distribution of Appreciation Value on Appreciation Warrants

  

 

On the Maturity Date or on any early redemption date, CPOs equal to the Appreciation Value will be distributed to holders of appreciation warrants, except that entitlements to fractional CPOs will be sold and the proceeds of such sale will be remitted in cash. The number of CPOs to be distributed will be determined by dividing the Appreciation Value by the closing price of one CPO on the Maturity Date or early redemption date, as the case may be, as published by the Mexican Stock Exchange, translated into Dollars at the Peso-Dollar FIX exchange rate.

Distribution of Appreciation Value on ADWs

  

 

On the Maturity Date or on any early redemption date, ADSs representing CPOs equal to the Appreciation Value will be distributed to holders of ADWs, except that entitlements to fractional ADSs will be remitted in cash.

WHEN THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL SHOULD BE USED:

 

You should complete this letter of transmittal only if you are including with this letter certificates representing the ADWs that you are tendering.

 

If you hold your ADWs in certificated form, you will be able to tender those ADWs only if you tender your ADWs in the manner described below or arrange for an agent to hold your ADWs on your behalf in book-entry form. If you appoint an agent, your agent may arrange for ADWs to be held in book-entry form through any participant in DTC. ADWs are held in book-entry form through a DTC participant subject to some restrictions set forth in the ADW deposit agreement. You and your agent should contact the information agent or the dealer manager at the numbers set forth on the back cover of the Offer to Purchase enclosed herewith if you have questions in this regard. You may tender the ADWs registered in your name on the books of the U.S. tender agent by delivering to the U.S. tender agent a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, together with the applicable signature guarantees from an eligible guarantor institution, and the certificate evidencing the ADWs specified in the accompanying letter of transmittal, in each case, on or prior to the expiration date.

 

ELIGIBLE HOLDER CERTIFICATION:

 

As described in the Offer to Purchase, for purposes of determining the purchase price to be paid in the offer, ADWs beneficially owned by persons that are not “eligible holders” will not be taken into account. By checking the box opposite the heading “I am an eligible holder” below, the undersigned hereby certifies that he/she/it is not an executive officer, director or subsidiary of CEMEX, nor an employee pension fund over which CEMEX exercises investment discretion.

 

“I am an eligible holder”    ¨

 

IF YOU DO NOT INDICATE WHETHER YOU ARE AN “ELIGIBLE HOLDER”, YOU WILL BE DEEMED TO NOT BE AN “ELIGIBLE HOLDER” AND THE PRICE(S) AT WHICH YOU TENDER YOUR ADWs WILL NOT BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT FOR PURPOSES OF DETERMINING THE PURCHASE PRICE CEMEX SELECTS IN THE OFFER.

 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING TENDERED ADWs

 

¨   Check here if any certificate evidencing the ADWs you are tendering with this letter of transmittal has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated. If so, you must complete an Affidavit of Loss and return it with your letter of transmittal. A bond may be required to be posted by you to secure against the risk that the certificates may be recirculated.

You may only select one price at which you agree to tender your ADWs to CEMEX per ADW certificate tendered. If you hold less ADW certificates than the number of prices you wish to select for your ADWs to be purchased by CEMEX, you may contact Citibank, N.A., as the ADW depositary for instruction on how to receive (i) book-entry ADWs or (ii) the appropriate number of ADW certificates equal to the number of prices you wish to select for the sale of your ADWs. Your ADWs will not be validly tendered if (i) more than one box is checked and you are not tendering an ADW certificate evidencing the same number of ADWs opposite such box or (ii) no box is checked.

 

ADWS TENDERED AT A PRICE DETERMINED BY YOU:

 

By checking one of the following boxes below you are tendering ADWs at the price checked. This action could result in none of your ADWs being purchased if the purchase price selected by CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. for the ADWs (the “Selected Purchase Price”) is less than the price checked below. If you check only one box and do not indicate the number of ADWs you wish to tender at that price, all of the ADWs, described above in the box entitled, “Description of ADWs Enclosed”, will be deemed tendered at the Selected Purchase Price. If you want to tender different portions of your ADWs at more than one price, you must indicate beside each box, the number of ADWs you wish to tender at those specific prices.

PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE FOR ADWs

 

Upon the terms and conditions of the offer, as soon as practicable following the expiration date, CEMEX will:

 

    determine the purchase price CEMEX, Inc. will pay for appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, taking into account the number of appreciation warrants and ADWs so tendered and the prices specified by tendering holders (other than appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered by persons who are not eligible holders); and

 

    cause to be accepted for payment and cause to be paid for, and thereby purchased, appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered at prices equal to or below the selected purchase price (including appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered by persons who are not eligible holders) and not properly withdrawn.

 

For purposes of the offer, CEMEX will be deemed to have accepted or caused to be accepted for payment and therefore purchased or caused to have been purchased appreciation warrants and ADWs that are validly tendered at or below the selected purchase price and not properly withdrawn, only when, as and if CEMEX gives notice to the Mexican dealer manager or the U.S. tender agent, as applicable, of its acceptance of the appreciation warrants or ADWs for payment. Upon the terms and conditions of the offer, as soon as practicable after the expiration date, CEMEX, Inc. will accept for payment and purchase at the Selected Purchase Price all ADWs validly tendered, and not properly withdrawn, at or below the Selected Purchase Price, which will be a single price in Mexican Pesos not greater than Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW) nor less then Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW). CEMEX will pay or cause to be paid for appreciation warrants purchased pursuant to the offer by paying to each Mexican broker-dealer tendering appreciation warrants the aggregate purchase price for the appreciation warrants purchased from such Mexican broker-dealer, which will act as agent for the holders on whose behalf it tendered such appreciation warrants for the purpose of receiving payment from us and transmitting payment to such holders. CEMEX, Inc. will pay for ADWs purchased pursuant to the offer by paying the aggregate purchase price for the ADWs to the U.S. tender agent, which will act as agent for tendering holders for the purpose of receiving payment from CEMEX, Inc. and transmitting payment to the tendering holders.

Neither CEMEX, CEMEX, Inc. nor Citibank, N.A. are responsible for the U.S. tender agent in fact being able to convert Mexican Pesos received for U.S. Dollars as a result of exchange controls or otherwise, or for the exchange rate at which such conversion ultimately occurs.

The undersigned covenants, represents and warrants to CEMEX that:

 

  1.   the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, sell, assign and transfer the ADWs tendered hereby and when and to the extent accepted for payment, CEMEX will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title to the tendered ADWs, free and clear of all security interests, liens, restrictions, charges, encumbrances, conditional sales agreements or other obligations relating to the sale or transfer of the ADWs, and not subject to any adverse claims;

 

  2.   the undersigned understands that tenders of ADWs pursuant to any one of the procedures described in the section captioned “The Offer—2. Procedures for Tendering Appreciation Warrants and ADWs” of the Offer to Purchase and in the instructions to this letter of transmittal will constitute the undersigned’s acceptance of the terms and conditions of the offer, including the undersigned’s representation and warranty that (a) the undersigned has a “net long position,” within the meaning of Rule 14e-4 promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in the ADWs or equivalent securities at least equal to the ADWs being tendered, and (b) the tender of ADWs complies with Rule 14e-4;

The undersigned understands that CEMEX’s acceptance of ADWs tendered pursuant to any one of the procedures described in the section captioned “The Offer—2.

The certificate numbers, the number of ADWs evidenced by the certificates, the number of ADWs that the undersigned wishes to tender, and the price at which the ADWs are being tendered (one price per ADW certificate tendered) should be set forth in the appropriate boxes above.

 

The undersigned understands that CEMEX will determine the purchase price, which will be either (i) the lowest price that will enable it to purchase at least eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders, which are all holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs, other than CEMEX’s executive officers, directors or subsidiaries or any employee pension fund over which CEMEX exercises investment discretion, or (ii) if less than eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders are validly tendered, the highest price at which any appreciation warrant (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) is validly tendered by an eligible holder. The purchase price determined by CEMEX as described above is referred to herein as the “Selected Purchase Price”. CEMEX will purchase, subject to the conditions of the offer described in the Offer to Purchase, at the Selected Purchase Price, net to the seller in cash, all appreciation warrants and ADWs that are validly tendered at prices at or below the Selected Purchase Price and not properly withdrawn, including appreciation warrants and ADWs tendered, and not properly withdrawn, by persons that are not eligible holders.

 

The undersigned recognizes that under the circumstances set forth in the Offer to Purchase, CEMEX may terminate or amend the offer or may postpone the acceptance for payment of, or the payment for, ADWs tendered or may accept for payment fewer than all of the ADWs tendered. The undersigned understands that certificate(s) for any ADWs not tendered or not purchased will be returned to the undersigned at the address indicated above, unless otherwise indicated in the box entitled “Special Payment Instructions” or the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” above. The undersigned acknowledges that CEMEX has no obligation, pursuant to the “Special Payment Instructions” box, to transfer any certificate for ADWs from the name of its registered holder(s), if CEMEX does not purchase any of the ADWs represented by such certificate.

 

The check for the aggregate net purchase price for the ADWs tendered and purchased will be issued to the order of the undersigned and mailed to the address indicated above, unless otherwise indicated in the boxes entitled “Special Payment Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” above.

 

All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred by this letter of transmittal will survive the death or incapacity of the undersigned, and any obligation of the undersigned will be binding on the heirs, personal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, assigns, trustees in bankruptcy and legal representatives of the undersigned. Except as stated in the Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable.

INSTRUCTIONS FORMING PART OF THE TERMS AND

CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER INSTRUCTIONS

 

1.    Guarantee of Signatures.    Depending on how the certificates for your ADWs are registered and to whom you want payments or deliveries made, you may need to have the signatures on this letter of transmittal guaranteed by an eligible guarantor institution. No signature guarantee is required if either:

 

    this letter of transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the ADWs tendered exactly as the name of the registered holder(s) appears on the certificate(s) for the ADWs and payment and delivery are to be made directly to the holder, unless the holder has completed either of the boxes entitled “Special Payment Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” above; or

 

    the ADWs are tendered for the account of a bank, broker, dealer, credit union, savings association or other entity which is a member in good standing of the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program or a bank, broker, dealer, credit union, savings association or other entity which is an “eligible guarantor institution,” as that term is defined in Rule 17Ad-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

In all other cases an eligible guarantor institution must guarantee all signatures on this letter of transmittal. You may also need to have any certificates you deliver endorsed or accompanied by a stock power, and the signatures on these documents also may need to be guaranteed. See Instruction 6.

 

2.    Delivery of Letter of Transmittal and Certificates.    For your ADWs to be validly tendered the following must happen:

 

    The U.S. tender agent must receive all of the following at its address above in this letter of transmittal before or on the date CEMEX, S.A. de C.V.’s offer expires:

 

    the certificates for the ADWs;

 

    a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or a manually executed facsimile of it, including any required signature guarantees; and

 

    any other documents required by this letter of transmittal.

 

THE METHOD OF DELIVERING ALL DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING CERTIFICATES FOR ADWs, THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ANY OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, IS AT YOUR ELECTION AND RISK. IF DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, PROPERLY INSURED, IS RECOMMENDED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.

 

All tendering ADW holders, by execution of this letter of transmittal or a manually signed facsimile of this letter of transmittal, waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of their tender.

 

3.    Inadequate Space.    If the space provided in the box entitled “Description of ADWs Tendered” above is inadequate, the certificate numbers and/or the number of ADWs should be listed on a separate signed schedule and attached to this letter of transmittal.

 

4.    Partial Tenders and Unpurchased ADWs.    If fewer than all of the ADWs evidenced by any certificate are to be tendered, fill in the number of ADWs that are to be tendered in the column entitled “Number of ADWs Tendered” in the box entitled “Description of ADWs Tendered” above. In that case, if any tendered ADWs are purchased, a new certificate for the remainder of the ADWs (including any ADWs not purchased) evidenced by the old certificate(s) will be issued and sent to the registered holder(s), unless otherwise specified in either the box entitled “Special Payment Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” in this letter of transmittal, as soon as practicable after the expiration date. Unless otherwise indicated, all ADWs represented by the certificate(s) set forth above and delivered to the U.S. tender agent will be deemed to have been tendered.

 

9


If any tendered ADWs are not purchased or are properly withdrawn, or if less than all ADWs evidenced by an ADW holder’s certificates are tendered, certificates for unpurchased ADWs will be returned as soon as practicable after the expiration or termination of the tender offer or the proper withdrawal of the ADWs, as applicable. In each case, ADWs will be returned or credited without expense to the ADW holder.

 

5.    Indication of Price at Which ADWs are Being Tendered.    If you want to tender your ADWs you must properly complete the pricing section of this letter of transmittal, which is called “Price At Which You Are Tendering”. You must check at least one box in the pricing section. Your ADWs will not be validly tendered if (i) more than one box is checked and you are not delivering a separate ADW certificate evidencing the same number of ADWs opposite each such box or (ii) no box is checked. If you check only one box and do not indicate the number of ADWs you wish to tender at that price, all of the ADWs evidenced on all of your ADW certificates and described above in the box entitled, “Description of ADWs Enclosed”, will be deemed tendered at the Selected Purchase Price. You may only select one price at which you agree to tender your ADWs to CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. per ADW certificate tendered. To tender ADWs validly, one and only one price box must be checked in the pricing section on the letter of transmittal for each certificate evidencing your tendered ADWs.

 

6.    Signatures on Letter of Transmittal; Stock Powers and Endorsements.    Exact Signature. If this letter of transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the ADWs tendered, the signature(s) must correspond exactly with the name(s) as written on the face of the certificate(s) without any change whatsoever.

 

Joint Holders.    If the ADWs tendered are registered in the names of two or more joint holders, each holder must sign this letter of transmittal.

 

Different Names on Certificates.    If any tendered ADWs are registered in different names on several certificates, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate letters of transmittal (or manually signed facsimiles) as there are different registrations of certificates.

 

Endorsements.    When this letter of transmittal is signed by the registered holder(s) of the ADWs tendered, no endorsements of certificates representing the ADWs or separate stock powers are required unless payment is to be made or the certificates for ADWs not tendered or not purchased are to be issued to a person other than the registered holder(s). Signature(s) on the certificate(s) must be guaranteed by an eligible institution.

 

If this letter of transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder(s) of the certificates listed, or if payment is to be made or certificates for ADWs not tendered or not purchased are to be issued to a person other than the registered holder(s), the certificates must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered holder(s) appears on the certificates, and the signatures on the certificates or stock powers must be guaranteed by an eligible institution. See Instruction 1.

 

Signatures of Fiduciaries.    If this letter of transmittal or any certificate or stock power is signed by a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation or any other person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, that person should so indicate when signing and must submit proper evidence satisfactory to CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. of his or her authority to so act.

 

7.    Stock Transfer Taxes.    Except as provided in this Instruction 7, no stock transfer tax stamps or funds to cover tax stamps need accompany this letter of transmittal. CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. will pay any stock transfer taxes payable on the transfer to it of ADWs purchased pursuant to the offer. If, however, (a) payment of the purchase price is to be made to any person other than the registered holder(s); (b) ADWs not tendered or rejected for purchase are to be registered in the name(s) of any person(s) other than the registered holder(s); or (c) certificates representing tendered ADWs are registered in the name(s) of any person(s) other than the person(s) signing this letter of transmittal, then the U.S. tender agent will deduct from the purchase price the amount of any stock transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder(s), other person(s) or otherwise) payable on account of the transfer to that person, unless satisfactory evidence of the payment of the taxes or any exemption therefrom is submitted.

 

10


8.    Special Payment and Delivery Instructions.    If certificate(s) for ADWs not tendered or not purchased and/or check(s) are to be issued in the name of a person other than the signer of this letter of transmittal or if the certificates and/or checks are to be sent to someone other than the person signing this letter of transmittal or to the signer at a different address, the box entitled “Special Payment Instructions” and/or the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” on this letter of transmittal should be completed as applicable and signatures must be guaranteed as described in Instruction 1.

 

9.    Irregularities.    All questions as to the number of ADWs to be accepted, the price to be paid for ADWs to be accepted and the validity, form, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for payment of any tender of ADWs will be determined by CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. in its sole discretion and that determination will be final and binding on all parties. CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. reserves the absolute right to reject any or all tenders of any ADWs that it determines are not in proper form or the acceptance for payment of or payment for which it determines may be unlawful. CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. also reserves the absolute right to waive any of the conditions of the tender offer or any defect or irregularity in any tender with respect to any particular ADWs or any particular ADW holder, and CEMEX, S.A. de C.V.’s interpretation of the terms of the tender offer (including these Instructions) will be final and binding on all parties. No tender of ADWs will be deemed to have been properly made until all defects or irregularities have been cured by the tendering ADW holder or waived by CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. Unless waived, any defects and irregularities in connection with tenders must be cured within the time period, if any, CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. determines. Neither CEMEX, S.A. de C.V., nor any of the U.S. tender agent, the information agent, the dealer manager or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in any tender or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

 

10.    Questions and Requests for Assistance and Additional Copies.    Questions and requests for additional copies of the Offer to Purchase or the letter of transmittal may be directed to Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the information agent or Citigroup Global Markets Inc., the dealer manager at their respective telephone numbers and addresses set forth on the back page of the Offer to Purchase and set forth below.

 

11.    Tax Identification Number and Backup Withholding.    Federal income tax law generally requires that an ADW holder whose tendered ADWs are accepted for purchase, or the ADW holder’s assignee (in either case, the “payee”), provide the U.S. tender agent with the payee’s correct Taxpayer Identification Number (“TIN”), which, in the case of a payee who is an individual, is the payee’s social security number. If the U.S. tender agent is not provided with the correct TIN or an adequate basis for an exemption, the payee may be subject to penalties imposed by the IRS and backup withholding at the applicable backup withholding rate on the gross proceeds received pursuant to the offer. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained. To prevent backup withholding, each payee must provide the payee’s correct TIN by completing the Substitute Form W-9 set forth in this letter of transmittal, certifying that the TIN provided is correct (or that the payee is awaiting a TIN) and that

 

    the payee is exempt from backup withholding,

 

    the payee has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that the payee is subject to backup withholding as a result of a failure to report all interest or dividends, or

 

    the Internal Revenue Service has notified the payee that the payee is no longer subject to backup withholding.

 

If the payee lacks a TIN, the payee should

 

    consult the enclosed Guidelines for Certification of Taxpayer Identification Number on Substitute Form W-9 for instructions on applying for a TIN,

 

    check “Awaiting TIN” in the box in Part 3 of the Substitute Form W-9, and

 

    sign and date the Substitute Form W-9 and the Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number set forth in this document.

 

11


If the payee does not provide the payee’s TIN to the U.S. tender agent within sixty (60) days, backup withholding will begin and continue until the payee furnishes the payee’s TIN to the U.S. tender agent. Note that checking the box in Part 3 on the Substitute Form W-9 means that the payee has already applied for a TIN or that the payee intends to apply for one in the near future.

 

If ADWs are held in more than one name or are not in the name of the actual owner, consult the W-9 guidelines for information on which TIN to report.

 

Exempt payees (including, among others, all corporations and certain foreign individuals) are not subject to backup withholding and reporting requirements. To prevent possible erroneous backup withholding, an exempt payee should write “Exempt” in Part 2 of the Substitute Form W-9. See the enclosed W-9 guidelines for additional instructions. In order for a nonresident alien or foreign entity to qualify as exempt, that person must submit a completed IRS Form W-8 Certificate of Foreign Status or a Substitute Form W-8, signed under penalty of perjury attesting to the exempt status. This form may be obtained from the U.S. tender agent.

 

Non-United States holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application of United States federal income tax withholding, including eligibility for a withholding tax reduction or exemption, and the refund procedure.

 

12.    Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Certificates.    If your certificate for part or all of your ADWs has been lost, stolen, misplaced or destroyed, you should contact Citibank, N.A., as the transfer agent for the ADWs, between 8:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (New York City time) at 1 (800) 308-7887, for instructions as to obtaining an Affidavit of Loss. The Affidavit of Loss will then be required to be submitted together with this letter of transmittal in order to receive payment for ADWs that are tendered and accepted for payment. A bond may be required to be posted by you to secure against the risk that the certificates may be subsequently recirculated. You are urged to contact Citibank, N.A. immediately in order to receive further instructions, to permit timely processing of this documentation and for a determination as to whether you will need to post a bond.

CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. (CUSIP No. 151290863)

 

CEMEX, S.A. de C.V., a corporation organized under the laws of the United Mexican States (“CEMEX”), has appointed us to act in connection with the offer by CEMEX to purchase for cash (the “Offer”) at the Selected Purchase Price (as defined below), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated November 17, 2003 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related letter of transmittal, all of its appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by American Depositary Warrants (“ADWs”), each ADW representing five appreciation warrants) that are tendered in the Offer at or below the purchase price selected by CEMEX (the “Selected Purchase Price”), which will be a single price in Mexican Pesos not greater than Ps8.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps40.50 per ADW) nor less than Ps5.10 per appreciation warrant (U.S.$ equivalent of Ps25.50 per ADW). You are being requested to contact clients for whom you hold ADWs registered in your name, or in the name of your nominee, to obtain instructions with respect to the tender of their ADWs. Citibank, N.A. has been appointed as the U.S. tender agent by CEMEX, and CEMEX has made arrangements with Citibank, N.A. to provide for the tender of ADWs upon the terms set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the related letter of transmittal. Your prompt attention is requested, as the Offer expires at 4:15 p.m., New York City time, which is 3:15 p.m., Mexico City time, on December 17, 2003 (the “ADW tender offer expiration date”).

 

Enclosed you will find copies of the Offer to Purchase along with the related letter of transmittal, and a form letter you can send to your clients who are beneficial owners of ADWs registered in your name, or in the name of your nominee. CEMEX requests that you send the Offer to Purchase and the related letter of transmittal, along with the client letter, to your clients who own ADWs.

 

CEMEX will determine the Selected Purchase Price, which will be either (i) the lowest price that will enable it to purchase at least eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders, which are all holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs, other


than CEMEX’s executive officers, directors or subsidiaries or an employee pension fund over which CEMEX exercises investment discretion, or (ii) if less than eighty percent of the appreciation warrants (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) beneficially owned by eligible holders are tendered, the highest price at which any appreciation warrant (including appreciation warrants represented by ADWs) is validly tendered by an eligible holder. CEMEX will purchase, subject to the conditions of the Offer described in the Offer to Purchase, at the Selected Purchase Price, net to the seller in cash, all appreciation warrants and ADWs that are validly tendered at prices at or below the Selected Purchase Price and not properly withdrawn, including appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered, and not properly withdrawn, by persons that are not eligible holders.

 

CEMEX’s offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in its Offer to Purchase enclosed herewith and in the related letter of transmittal which, as each may be amended and supplemented from time to time, together constitute the Offer.

 

Only ADWs validly tendered at prices equal to or below the Selected Purchase Price and not properly withdrawn will be purchased. All ADWs tendered and not purchased, including ADWs tendered at prices above the Selected Purchase Price, will be returned at CEMEX’s expense as promptly as practicable after the Offer is completed or terminated.

 

The Offer is not conditioned on any minimum number of ADWs being tendered. The Offer is, however, subject to other conditions described in the Offer to Purchase and the related letter of transmittal.

 

For your information and for forwarding to your clients for whom you hold ADWs registered in your name or in the name of your nominee, we are enclosing the following documents:

 

    Offer to Purchase, dated November 17, 2003, along with the related letter of transmittal; and

 

    Letter to Clients that you may send to your clients for whose accounts you hold ADWs registered in your name or in the name of your nominee, with an instruction form for obtaining such clients’ instructions with regard to the Offer.

 

Your prompt action is requested. We urge you to contact your clients as promptly as possible to obtain their instructions. The Offer and withdrawal rights will expire at 4:15 p.m., New York City time, which is 3:15 p.m., Mexico City time, on Wednesday, December 17, 2003, unless the Offer is extended.

Citibank, N.A. has been appointed as the U.S. tender agent by CEMEX. The Offer to Purchase is being furnished to you as the beneficial owner of ADWs held by us for your account.

CEMEX will purchase, subject to the conditions of the offer described in the Offer to Purchase, at the


Selected Purchase Price, net to the seller in cash, all appreciation warrants and ADWs that are validly tendered at prices at or below the Selected Purchase Price and not properly withdrawn, including appreciation warrants and ADWs validly tendered, and not properly withdrawn, by persons that are not eligible holders.

 

CEMEX’s Offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in its Offer to Purchase enclosed herewith and in the related letter of transmittal which, as each may be amended and supplemented from time to time, together constitute the Offer.

You must check one box and only one box if you want to tender all of your ADWs at only one price. Your ADWs will not be validly tendered if (i) more than one box is checked and you are not tendering portions of your ADWs at more than one price or (ii) no box is checked.

 

ADWs TENDERED AT A PRICE DETERMINED BY YOU:

 

By checking one or more of the following boxes below you are tendering ADWs at the price(s) checked. This action could result in none of your ADWs being purchased if the purchase price selected by CEMEX for the ADWs is less than the price(s) checked below.

Certain penalties may also apply.

(1) Penalty for Failure to Furnish Taxpayer Identification Number.—If you fail to furnish your taxpayer identification number to a payer, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.

 

(2) Civil Penalty for False Information With Respect To Withholding.—If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis which results in no imposition of backup withholding, you are subject to a penalty of $500.

 

(3) Criminal Penalty for Falsifying Information.—Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.

 

(4) Misuse of Taxpayer Identification Numbers.—If the requester discloses or uses taxpayer identification numbers in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.

                                                               Exhibit (a)(1)(F)

CEMEX announces offer to purchase for cash all appreciation warrants

MONTERREY, MEXICO, November 17, 2003 - CEMEX, S.A. de C.V. (NYSE: CX) announced
today that it will commence an offer to purchase for cash all of its
appreciation warrants and American Depositary Warrants (ADWs). The offer and
withdrawal rights will expire at 4:15 p.m. New York City time, which is 3:15
p.m. Mexico City time, on December 17, 2003, unless the offer is extended.
Holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs who wish to tender their securities
will be required to specify the price at which they wish to tender, which should
be in Mexican Pesos and not greater than MXP 8.10 per appreciation warrant (US$
equivalent of MXP 40.50 per ADW, since each ADW represents five appreciation
warrants) and not less than MXP 5.10 per appreciation warrant (US$ equivalent of
MXP 25.50 per ADW).

When the offer expires, CEMEX will determine a single purchase price in Mexican
Pesos for appreciation warrants and ADWs. For purposes of determining this
selected purchase price only, appreciation warrants and ADWs beneficially owned
by persons who are not eligible holders will not be taken into account. Eligible
holders are all holders of appreciation warrants and ADWs other than CEMEX's
directors, executive officers, subsidiaries and certain employee benefit plans
("Related Party Holders"). However, all these Related Party Holders will
otherwise be able to participate in the offer and have all their appreciation
warrants and ADWs purchased at the selected purchase price, assuming they
indicated they are willing to sell them at or below that price. Prices submitted
by Related Party Holders are being excluded from the determination of the
selected purchase price so that the selected purchase price will be determined
by holders of our appreciation warrants and ADWs that are not "insiders."

The selected purchase price will be either the lowest price that will enable
CEMEX to purchase at least eighty percent of the appreciation warrants and ADWs
held by eligible holders (which is 45,293,003 appreciation warrants), or if less
than eighty percent of the appreciation warrants and ADWs held by eligible
holders (which is 45,293,003 appreciation warrants) are validly tendered, the
highest price at which any appreciation warrant or ADW is validly tendered by an
eligible holder.

CEMEX will then purchase at the selected purchase price all appreciation
warrants and ADWs held by eligible and non-eligible holders that are validly
tendered at prices at or below the selected purchase price, and will not
purchase any appreciation warrants or ADWs tendered at prices above the selected
purchase price.

This press release is for informational purposes only and is not an offer to buy
or the solicitation of an offer to sell any appreciation warrants or ADWs. The
offer outside of Mexico is being made solely by the Offer to Purchase dated
November 17, 2003 and the related Letter of Transmittal. Investors are urged to
read the Company's Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO that will be filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with the offer,
which will include as exhibits the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of
Transmittal, as well as any amendments or supplements to the Statement when they
become available, because they contain



important information. Each of these documents will be filed with the SEC, and
investors may obtain them for free from the SEC at the SEC's website
(www.sec.gov) or from Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the information
agent for the offer outside of Mexico, by directing such request to: Global
Bondholder Services Corporation, 65 Broadway, Suite 704, New York, NY, 10006,

                                   Transaction shall be unwound only with
                                   respect to the Number of Shares corresponding
                                   to the unwind of Wachovia's hedge. Each day
                                   in the Unwind Period shall be deemed to be a
                                   Valuation Date for purposes of the Settlement
                                   mechanics herein.

                                             Settlement Price minus (ii) the
                                             product of the Settlement Price
                                             multiplied by 15 basis points minus
                                             (iii) the Forward Price, discounted

                                   value thereof), by the Buyer to the Seller.

                                   If Physical Settlement is elected and the
                                   Conditions to Physical Settlement are

                                   by Wachovia in good faith using its then
                                   current Libor interest rate curve from and
                                   including the first Valuation Date relating
                                   to the unwind to and excluding March 16, 2005

                                   If Physical Settlement is elected and the
                                   Conditions to Physical Settlement are

                                   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Risk

                                   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Risk

                                   and other charges. If the bonus, distribution

                                   If Physical Settlement is elected and the
                                   Conditions to Physical Settlement are

                                   by Wachovia in good faith using its then
                                   current Libor interest rate curve from and
                                   including the first Valuation Date relating

                                   equal to or less than the Share Price
                                   Trigger.

                                        monthly from the Trade Date at a rate of

                                             in Shares,

                                             (iii) a merger or other transaction
                                             whereby the outstanding Shares are

                                   transferred to the Counterparty promptly, net
                                   of any applicable taxes or other charges, in

                                   date that such a transfer is to be made, then

                                   when such Risk Event(s) ceases, net of taxes
                                   and other charges. If the bonus, distribution
                                   or dividend in stock or other extraordinary
                                   dividend received is not in the Reference

                                   actually received by Wachovia. If the

Governing Law:                     This Confirmation will be governed by and
                                   construed in accordance with the laws of the

                                   determine if such failure adversely affected

                                   hedge to Wachovia and if so, shall adjust the
                                   terms hereof accordingly.

                                   Each of Wachovia and the Buyer agrees to
                                   proceed solely against the other to collect

Early Unwind Option:               So long as no Risk Event has occurred or is
                                   continuing, Counterparty shall have the right
                                   to unwind this Transaction, in whole or in
                                   part, by providing notice to Wachovia (which
                                   may be oral or written), specifying Cash or
                                   Physical Settlement. In connection with such
                                   early unwind, Wachovia and Counterparty shall
                                   agree on number of Exchange Business Days
                                   comprising an unwind period (the "Unwind

                                   this Transaction is proposed to be terminated
                                   on each Exchange Business Day in the Unwind
                                   Period. Wachovia may extend or shorten such
                                   unwind period and/or change the number of
                                   Number of Shares applicable to any day in the
                                   Unwind Period in its sole discretion. This

                                   respect to the Number of Shares corresponding
                                   to the unwind of Wachovia's hedge. Each day
                                   in the Unwind Period shall be deemed to be a
                                   Valuation Date for purposes of the Settlement
                                   mechanics herein.

                                   If Cash Settlement is elected then the "Cash
                                   Settlement Amount" shall be an amount in USD
                                   determined by the Calculation Agent, equal to
                                   the Unwind Price. The Cash Settlement Amount
                                   shall be paid in the United States in USD.

                                        "Unwind Price" means:

                                             the product of the applicable
                                             Number of Shares and ((i) the
                                             Settlement Price minus (ii) the
                                             product of the Settlement Price
                                             multiplied by 15 basis points minus
                                             (iii) the Forward Price, discounted

                                             curve from and including the first
                                             Valuation Date relating to the
                                             unwind to and excluding November

                                   be payable in the United States in USD on

                                   value thereof), by the Buyer to the Seller.

                                   If Physical Settlement is elected and the
                                   Conditions to Physical Settlement are

                                   by Wachovia in good faith using its then
                                   current Libor interest rate curve from and
                                   including the first Valuation Date relating
                                   to the unwind to and excluding November 5,
                                   2004 and as soon as practicable thereafter

   Share Price Trigger:            It shall be an Additional Termination Event
                                   under the Agreement if the Closing Price of

                                   Trigger.

                                        per share on any day on the Exchange, as
                                        converted to USD by Wachovia. In the
                                        event that the Shares are no longer
                                        listed on the Exchange or are suspended
                                        from trading on the Exchange than the

                                        monthly from the Trade Date at a rate of
                                        7% per annum calculated on a semi annual

                                        term of this Transaction.

                                             reclassification of the Shares into

                                             (ii) a dividend on the Shares paid
                                             in Shares,

                                             (iii) a merger or other transaction
                                             whereby the outstanding Shares are
                                             exchanged for another class of
                                             securities, or securities of
                                             another issuer, or

                                             (iv) any other similar event.

                                   Wachovia shall make appropriate adjustments
                                   to the Share Price Trigger.

                                   In the event of the occurrence of such an
                                   Additional Termination Event, Party B shall
                                   be the sole Affected Party, this Transaction
                                   shall be the sole Affected Transaction and

Cash Dividends:                    If a Record Date in respect of the Shares
                                   occurs on any date from and including the
                                   Effective Date to but excluding the final
                                   Settlement Date or the final Cash Settlement
                                   Date, as the case may be, the Seller shall
                                   promptly pay to the Buyer the cash dividend
                                   amount paid by the Issuer to the Seller in
                                   respect of Shares actually held by the Seller
                                   as part of its hedge (in the currency
                                   received) whether or not such date occurs
                                   after the final Settlement Date or the final
                                   Cash Settlement Date, as the case may be. If
                                   the date on which such dividend is paid by
                                   the Issuer occurs after the final Settlement
                                   Date or the final Cash Settlement Date, as
                                   the case may be, then such amount shall be
                                   promptly paid to Counterparty in whatever
                                   currency actually received by Wachovia after
                                   Counterparty satisfies its payment
                                   obligations hereunder in full.

                                   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Risk
                                   Event shall occur or be continuing on any
                                   date that such dividend is due to be paid to

                                   when such Risk Event(s) ceases, net of taxes
                                   and other charges. If the bonus, distribution
                                   or dividend in stock or other extraordinary

at such depository or clearing house cannot be effected.

is unable to effect the transfer or delivery of the Selected Securities due to
regulatory or similar jurisdictional directives affecting Counterparty, Citibank

System. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Settlement Disruption Event prevents
settlement on each of the 10 Business Days immediately following the original
date that, but for the Settlement Disruption Event, would have been the
Settlement Date, then, (a) if the Selected Securities can be delivered in any
other commercially reasonable manner, the Settlement Date will be the first day
the Selected Securities could be settled using such other commercially
reasonable manner of delivery, or (b) if the Selected Securities cannot be
delivered in any other commercially reasonable manner, Citibank will be deemed
to have satisfied its obligation to make delivery of the Selected Securities
hereunder by making the Specified Number of the Selected Securities available to
Counterparty at an account with Citibank.

                               Agreement") having Banco Nacional de Mexico,
                               S.A., Grupo Financiero Banamex as trustee (the
                               "Trustee") and Dresdner as a first trust settler
                               and beneficiary, Cedice warrants in respect of

                               has not instructed the Trustee to transfer any of
                               the Shares which Dresdner delivered to the
                               Trustee to Citigroup or to any other underwriter
                               of the Secondary Public Offer which exchanged or
                               may have exchanged the Shares into American

                               Any breach of this warranty shall constitute an
                               Event of Default under the Agreement. In
                               recognition that a breach of this undertaking
                               shall create risk of damages to Dresdner which
                               are not quantifiable, Cedice agrees to pay to
                               Dresdner (in addition to any other amounts due
                               under the Agreement) liquidated damages in the
                               sum of USD 5,000,000 (five million dollars) upon
                               the breach of this warranty.

                               Payment of these damages is irrevocably

                               Breach of this warranty will be presumed in the
                               event that the Trustee has recorded in the
                               Individual Registry (as defined and referred in
                               the Trust Agreement) that any Shares have been

                               constitute an Early Termination of the
                               Transaction and no Payments on Early Termination
                               shall be payable by Cedice. Provided however that
                               a consequential payment may be due from one party
                               to the other in cash or otherwise (a
                               "Restructuring Charge") the amount of which shall
                               be determined by Dresdner.

                               Except to the extent that the terms of the
                               Transaction have been amended in accordance with

                               Following a Restructuring Dresdner shall confirm

                                   of the Issuer and which, in the reasonable
                                   opinion of the Calculation Agent, would have
                                   a materially negative effect on this
                                   Transaction;

Delisting Event:                   (a) all or a substantial part of the Shares

                                   transferring them or receiving value for
                                   them,

                                   (d) the Shares are delisted from the Exchange
                                   or an announcement is made by the Issuer, the
                                   Exchange or any other regulatory or
                                   governmental agency, authority or entity that
                                   such delisting is to take place;

Potential Adjustment Event:        means any of the following:

                                   (a) a subdivision, consolidation or
                                   reclassification of Shares;
                                   (b) a reconstruction of the Issuer;
                                   (c) a distribution of assets of the Issuer;
                                   (d) a reduction of share capital of the

                                   the Shares;
                                   (f) any other event that may, in the opinion
                                   of the Calculation Agent, have a diluting or
                                   concentrative effect on the theoretical value
                                   of the Shares.

          Settlement Amount and (ii) the Distribution Accrual Amount (if any);

     (b)  if the sum of (i) the Final Settlement Amount and (ii) the

3 - Market Disruption during averaging periods

     In the event that any Interim Averaging Dates or Final Averaging Dates are
     Market Disrupted Days, the Early Termination Effective Date or the
     Termination Effective Date (as the case may be) shall be postponed until
     the earlier of (i) the first Exchange Business Day upon which the number of
     non-disrupted days specified in the relevant definition of Interim
     Averaging Dates or Final Averaging Dates (as the case may be) has been
     achieved, or (ii) the fifth Exchange Business Day following that day which
     would otherwise have been the Early Termination Effective Date or the
     Termination Effective Date (as the case may be), in which latter case the
     Calculation Agent shall determine, acting reasonably and in good faith, the
     relevant price or amount, taking into account those Interim Averaging Dates
     or Final Averaging Dates (as the case may be) which were not Market
     Disrupted Days.

4 - Liquidity Event

     Following the determination by the Calculation Agent (acting reasonably and
     providing evidence of such determination to the Counterparty, but acting in
     its sole discretion) that liquidity of the Shares on the Exchange is
     extraordinarily reduced (taking into account comparative historic
     liquidities) prior to any Early Termination Effective Date or the
     Termination Effective Date as the case may be, the Calculation Agent shall
     notify the Counterparty prior to any such Early Termination Date or the
     Termination Date of such fact and (a) the Bank may (if such physical
     settlement is permitted in all the legal and regulatory circumstances then
     prevailing) require the relevant Early Termination Effective Date or
     Termination Effective Date as the case may be to be the subject of physical
     settlement or (b) the Bank may notify the Counterparty that the relevant
     Early Termination Date or Termination Date shall be delayed to such later
     Exchange Business Day as the Bank may reasonably require to permit the Bank
     to unwind its hedge in respect of this Transaction (in whole or in part as
     the case may be) in an orderly and undisrupted manner, having regard to the
     liquidity conditions then prevailing.

5 - Delisting, Merger and Potential Adjustment Events

(a)  Following the notification by either party to the other of any Delisting
     Event or Merger Event, each of the Bank and the Counterparty will use its
     respective reasonable endeavours to agree in good faith upon another
     exchange or other quotation system in respect of the Shares or to agree
     such other amendments to this Confirmation as may be necessary or
     desirable. If the Bank and the Counterparty fail to reach agreement within
     10 Business Days from the date of any such notification, the Calculation
     Agent, acting in good faith, shall have the right (but not the obligation)
     to determine another exchange or other quotation system (if applicable), to
     determine and make such amendments to this Confirmation as may be necessary
     or desirable, or to terminate the transaction. Such termination may occur
     by the Calculation Agent, by not less than two nor more than 20 Business
     Days notice to the Counterparty specifying such Delisting Event or Merger
     Event to be an Additional Termination Event (in respect of which both
     parties shall be Affected Parties), and designating a day not earlier than
     the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of
     any or all outstanding Transactions.

                                                                              10



(b)  Following the declaration by the Issuer of the terms of, or the occurrence
     of, any Potential Adjustment Event, the Calculation Agent, acting in good
     faith, shall determine (i) whether such Potential Adjustment Event will
     have a diluting or concentrative effect on the value of the Shares; and
     (ii) any adjustment(s) to be made to the terms of this Transaction to
     account for the effect of such Potential Adjustment Event and so that the
     value of the Transaction for both parties shall as nearly as possible
     remain unchanged. In the absence of manifest error, such determination by
     the Calculation Agent shall be definitive.

(c)  Any adjustments determined pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall be made to
     the settlement terms of this Transaction with effect from the date on which
     it is determined by the Calculation Agent that such adjustments should take
     effect.

6 - Calculation Agent

The Calculation Agent shall make calculations, adjustments and determinations
and carry out its other functions as provided in this Confirmation and the
Agreement acting reasonably and in good faith, and shall promptly notify the
parties of such calculations, adjustments and determinations within the time
required under this Confirmation. In the event of a dispute as to any
calculation, adjustment, determination or other action of the Calculation Agent
made under this Confirmation that has not been resolved by agreement between the
parties and the Calculation Agent within a period of twenty Business Days, the
Bank and the Counterparty shall jointly nominate an independent third party
(which shall be a bank or other financial institution of good international
reputation with an established expertise in matters relating to this
Confirmation) to review and to confirm or replace the disputed decision of the
Calculation Agent with a decision of such independent third party. The decision
of such independent third party shall be binding in the absence of manifest
error. If the Bank and the Counterparty cannot agree on the joint nomination of
an independent third party within a further period of ten Business Days, then
the dispute shall be submitted to the jurisdiction of the English courts in
accordance with Section 13 of the Agreement. The costs and expenses of this
independent third party shall be borne by the parties hereto in equal shares.

7- Payment Currency, VAT and Withholding Tax

(a)  All payments to be made hereunder shall be made in the USD. Unless
     otherwise provided herein, any amounts, prices or values originally
     denominated or calculated in a currency other than the USD will be
     converted into the USD at the Foreign Exchange Rate prevailing on the date
     and time such prices are determined, valuations are made or payments are
     required to be made hereunder.

(b)  All payments provided for are expressed to be net of any applicable
     value-added, sales or goods and services tax (together, "VAT") or
     withholding tax, which shall in all cases be in addition. In the event of
     any imposition of VAT or withholding tax, each party undertakes to each
     other to use its best endeavours to mitigate the impact of any such
     imposition, and each party agrees to make such reasonable amendments or
     additions to this Confirmation. In the event however that no such
     reasonable amendments are feasible so as to mitigate such impact, the party
     obliged to impose such VAT or make such withholding shall gross-up so that
     the net amount received by the other party shall be the same as if no VAT
     or withholding tax had been imposed.

                                                                              11



8 - Bank's and Counterparty's Obligations

Nothing in this Confirmation shall oblige the Bank or the Counterparty to take
any action which is in contravention of applicable laws or regulations and in
particular (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing), each of
the Bank and the Counterparty acknowledge that as at the trade date no valid
Physical Settlement Notice may be delivered by the Counterparty.

                                   dividend as to which the holder of Shares may
                                   not elect to receive Shares in lieu of such
                                   ordinary cash dividend or if the Counterparty
                                   has not elected to receive the cash value of
                                   the Shares receivable in lieu of such
                                   ordinary cash dividend (as described below),
                                   the amount of such ordinary cash dividends on
                                   one Share.

                                   If the relevant dividend is an ordinary cash
                                   dividend as to which the holder of Shares may
                                   elect to receive Shares in lieu of such
                                   ordinary cash dividend and the Counterparty
                                   has elected to receive the cash value of the
                                   Shares receivable in lieu of such ordinary
                                   cash dividend, the Share Dividend Value.

                                   The "Share Dividend Value" shall mean the
                                   arithmetic average of the closing price of
                                   the Shares on each of the three Exchange
                                   Business Days following the date on which the
                                   number of Shares payable in respect of the
                                   relevant ordinary cash dividend is announced
                                   by the Issuer. If there is a Market
                                   Disruption Event on any such day, then the
                                   Calculation Agent shall make adjustment to
                                   the Share Dividend Value.

                                   If the relevant dividend is an ordinary cash
                                   dividend as to which the holder of Shares may
                                   elect to receive Shares in lieu of such
                                   ordinary cash dividend, the Counterparty may
                                   elect to receive the Share Dividend Value.
                                   Such election shall be by notice given not
                                   less than ten Exchange Business Days prior to
                                   the date on which a holder of the Shares
                                   would be obligated to notify the Issuer of
                                   its election to receive cash or Shares. The
                                   notice must be given telephonically and
                                   confirmed in writing (although failure to
                                   confirm in writing will not vitiate the
                                   effectiveness of the original notice). The
                                   notice will be irrevocable when given and
                                   absent an affirmative election, the
                                   Counterparty will receive the ordinary cash
                                   dividend.

                                   In either such case, the amount shall be net
                                   of any withholding taxes or other fees that
                                   would be applicable to a U.K. holder of the
                                   Shares which received the cash dividend or
                                   received the Shares in lieu thereof and sold
                                   the same on the Exchange, and in each case
                                   converted from Local Currency to Settlement

                                   below.


Selection of Cash or Physical Settlement:

        Selection of Cash or
        Physical Settlement:       Unless Early Cash Settlement is applicable,
                                   Counterparty may select whether Cash
                                   Settlement or Physical Settlement shall be
                                   applicable, provided that Physical Settlement
                                   shall be conditioned upon the fulfillment of
                                   the Physical Settlement Condition. The
                                   Physical Settlement Condition shall be deemed
                                   fulfilled, if Bear Stearns determines, in its
                                   sole discretion, that Counterparty may take
                                   delivery of the Shares and/or the American
                                   Depository Receipts of the Shares ("ADRs")
                                   and become an owner thereof, without any
                                   condition or restrictions on such delivery or
                                   ownership, on each of the Notice Date
                                   (defined below), the Price Determination Date
                                   and the Physical Settlement Date (defined
                                   below). In determining whether or not the
                                   Physical Settlement Condition has been
                                   fulfilled Bear Stearns may require, without
                                   limitation, Counterparty to obtain, at its
                                   own expense, an opinion(s) of counsel
                                   satisfactory to Bear Stearns in its sole
                                   discretion as to their form, substance and
                                   source with respect to each of the Notice
                                   Date, the Price Determination Date and the
                                   Physical Settlement Date, such opinions to
                                   address, among other things, the
                                   permissibility of physical settlement and the
                                   absence of any adverse impact on Bear
                                   Stearns, including tax impact.

                                   In the event that no effective selection is
                                   made of whether Cash Settlement or Physical
                                   Settlement is applicable or in the event that
                                   Bear Stearns determines, in its sole
                                   discretion, that the Physical Condition has
                                   not been fulfilled, then Cash Settlement
                                   shall be applicable.

                                   Such selection shall be made by giving
                                   irrevocable notice (which will be written
                                   notice confirmed orally). Notwithstanding
                                   Section 3.2 of the 1996 Definitions, such
                                   notice must be given prior to the Expiration
                                   Time on an Exchange Business Day which is not
                                   less than 45 Exchange Business Days prior to
                                   the Expiration Date and not more than 60
                                   Exchange Business Days prior to the
                                   Expiration Date (the "Notice Date"). If such
                                   notice is given after the Expiration Time on
                                   an Exchange Business Day, then that notice
                                   shall be deemed given on the next Exchange
                                   Business Day.

        Cash Settlement:           In the event that Cash Settlement applies
                                   (and Early Cash Settlement does not apply),
                                   then on the Cash Settlement Date, if the
                                   Forward Differential is positive, Seller
                                   shall pay the Cash Settlement Amount to
                                   Purchaser and if the Forward Differential is
                                   negative, Purchaser shall pay the Cash
                                   Settlement Amount to Seller. If the Cash
                                   Settlement Amount is zero, neither party
                                   shall pay any amount to the other.

                                   In the event that Early Cash Settlement does
                                   apply, then on the Counterparty Early

                                   converted from Local Currency to Settlement

        Cash Settlement Date:      The second Exchange Business Day following
                                   the Price Determination Date (or if such day

     Additional Termination Event:

        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the 1996 Definitions, it
        shall be an Additional Termination Event if any of the following should
        occur at any time from and including the Trade Date to and including the
        Price Determination Date:

        (a) a Price Decrease Event (defined below);

        (b) the Merger Date of any Share-for-Share Merger Event, Share-for-Other
        Merger Event or Share-for-Combined Merger Event shall occur (save that
        for purposes of determining if any event is a Merger Event, the
        requirement that the Merger Date be on or before the Expiration Date or
        final Valuation Date shall be replaced with a requirement that the
        Merger Date be on or before the Price Determination Date);

        on any Exchange Business Day, from and including the Trade Date through
        and including the Price Determination Date the Shares trade at or less
        than 50% of the Initial Spot Price. For purposes of determining whether
        or not a Price Decrease Event has occurred, the occurrence of (or an
        event, which had it occurred at any time within the half-hour prior to
        the Valuation Time would have been) a Market Disruption Event shall be
        disregarded.

        The occurrence of a Price Decrease Event will be determined by the

                                   the next Local Business Day if notice is
                                   received after 11 A.M. New York City time.

                                   The "Collateral Requirement" shall mean, as
                                   of any Credit Support Valuation Date, an
                                   amount equal to the product of applicable
                                   Collateral Percentage and the Notional
                                   Amount. The Collateral Percentage means, the
                                   percentage set forth on the Collateral
                                   Requirement Annex attached hereto, that
                                   corresponds to the VWAP Share Price (defined
                                   herein) as of the relevant Credit Support
                                   Valuation Date. In the event that the
                                   Counterparty has provided a replacement
                                   letter of credit or posted additional cash
                                   Collateral to avoid the occurrence of an
                                   Early Settlement Date, until expiration of
                                   the relevant letter of credit, the Collateral
                                   Requirement shall be increased by the
                                   then-current drawable amount of the expiring
                                   letter of credit.

                                   The "VWAP Share Price" means the
                                   volume-weighted average price per Share as
                                   reported on Bloomberg page "LQS NEW", or any
                                   successor page, as of the relevant Credit
                                   Support Valuation Date, provided, however,
                                   that if Bloomberg fails to publish a
                                   volume-weighted average price for any Credit
                                   Support Valuation Date, then the Calculation
                                   Agent shall determine such price based on
                                   such other information as it selects in its
                                   sole discretion; provided, further, that if
                                   there is a Market Disruption Event on such
                                   date, the Calculation Agent shall determine a
                                   good faith estimate of the volume-weighted
                                   average price per Share that would have
                                   prevailed but for the occurrence of such
                                   Market Disruption Event.

                                   (b) These Collateral Provisions shall be
                                   deemed a security agreement, and
                                   notwithstanding anything to the contrary
                                   contained in the Executed Master Agreement or
                                   this Confirmation, these provisions shall be
                                   governed by the laws of the State of New
                                   York, without giving effect to the conflicts
                                   or choice of law provisions thereof.
                                   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set
                                   forth in this Confirmation or the Master
                                   Agreement, in the event of any inconsistency
                                   between the Master Agreement and these
                                   Collateral Provisions, the Master Agreement
                                   shall prevail, except as set forth in the
                                   preceding sentence. The Pledgor hereby grants
                                   a first priority continuing security interest
                                   in all Collateral provided hereunder, the
                                   proceeds of any letter of credit, and in any

                                   thereof and distributions thereon. Interest
                                   on any cash Collateral held hereunder shall
                                   be credited at

                                   the Pledgor to deliver Collateral in
                                   accordance with these Collateral Provisions

                                   5(a)(iii) of the Master Agreement. For
                                   purposes of these Collateral Provisions, the
                                   term "Local Business Day" shall have the
                                   meaning given such term in the Master

                                   to include a delivery of Collateral
                                   hereunder. The parties agree that the
                                   obligation to deliver cash collateral
                                   hereunder is a "payment obligation" for

parties expressly specify that Market Quotation and Second Method shall apply
unless otherwise specified herein.

Non-Reliance. Each party represents to the other party that (a) it has not
received and is not relying upon any legal, tax, regulatory, accounting or other
advice (whether written or oral) of the other party regarding this Transaction,

Commodity Exchange Act, as amended.

Payment Date Netting. The parties agree that subparagraph (ii) of Section 2(c)

specified in the Executed Master Agreement, either party hereto may also
transfer its rights and obligations under this Transaction, in whole or in part,
to its respective Credit Support Provider or any of its Affiliates, provided

including the Trade Date, to and including the Valuation Date, the Shares cease
to be listed on the Exchange for any reason (other than a Merger Event) and are

                                   the Cash Settlement Amount shall be equal to
                                   the absolute value of that amount:

physically settle the Transaction in the manner and procedure prescribed in
Article 6 of the Equity Definitions relating to the Physical Settlement of
Options. If Counterparty elects such right, irrevocable oral telephonic notice
specifying that Physical Settlement applies to the Transaction must be given to
JPMorgan (see Section 6 for contact details) between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and
4:00 p.m. (local time in New York) on any Exchange Business Day which is not
more than sixty Exchange Business Days and not less than forty five Exchange
Business Days prior to the Valuation Date ("Notice of Exercise"). Upon Notice of
Exercise, the Counterparty will execute and deliver a written confirmation
confirming the substance of that Notice of Exercise within one Exchange Business
Day of that Notice of Exercise. Failure to provide such written confirmation
will not affect the validity of that oral notice. If Notice of Exercise is given
after 4:00 p.m. (local time in New York) on any Exchange Business Day, then that
Notice of Exercise will be deemed delivered on the next following Exchange
Business Day, if any. Upon Notice of Exercise, the Settlement Terms provisions
set forth in Section 2 of this Confirmation shall be superseded and replaced by
the following:

          Settlement Terms:

               Settlement Price:   The Number of Shares to be Delivered
                                   multiplied by the Forward Price.

               Physical
               Settlement:         Applicable. On the relevant Settlement Date
                                   the Counterparty shall pay to JPMorgan the
                                   Settlement Price and JPMorgan shall deliver

                                   be Delivered. Such payment and such delivery
                                   will be made on the relevant Settlement Date
                                   through the relevant Clearance System on a

          JPMorgan (the "Designator") may designate any of its Affiliates (the
"Designee") to deliver or take delivery, as the case may be, and otherwise
perform it's obligations to deliver or take delivery, as the case may be, in
respect of this Transaction and the Designee may assume such obligations. Such
designation shall not relieve the Designator of any of its obligations
hereunder.

If the Designee shall have performed the obligations of the Designator
hereunder, then the Designator shall be discharged of its obligations to the
other party to the extent of such performance.

          (g) Dividend Payments: With respect to the Forward Price only, if the
Shares have gone ex-dividend with respect to a cash dividend on any date (such
date the "Ex-Dividend Date") from, but excluding, the Trade Date to, and
including, the Valuation Date, JPMorgan shall pay to Counterparty, on the date
such dividend is paid or, in the event that such dividend is paid after the
Valuation Date, the Cash Settlement Payment Date, the net U.S. Dollar amount
(after giving effect to any withholding or any other tax applicable at the time
at which such cash dividend is paid or if not paid to be paid (as of the
Ex-Dividend Date)) of such cash dividend paid or to be paid with respect to one
Share where the "Valuation Date" is the Ex-Dividend Date, multiplied by the
Number of Shares, excluding, however, special cash dividends to the extent that
such special cash dividends have an effect on the price of the Shares on the
Exchange, all as calculated and announced by the Issuer.

          (h) The Counterparty represents and warrants that it, nor any of its
affiliates is in possession of any material non-public information with respect
to the Shares prior to entering into this Transaction.

          (i) Counterparty agrees that if Physical Settlement is elected, as
specified in Section 7(d) herein, all conversion costs will be borne by the
Counterparty.

          (j) Adjustments: Calculation Agent shall adjust the Call Strike Price
and Put Strike Price components of the Transaction by the Strike Adjustment
provisions, and the Number of Options component of the Transaction by the Number
of Options Adjustment provisions. The Calculation agent shall notify
Counterparty (either telephonically or by fax transmissions) as to whether the
Calculation Agent shall adjust the Call Strike Price and Put Strike Price using
either a Cash Adjustment or Physical Adjustment, as determined by the
Calculation Agent at least ten (10) Exchange Business Days following any
ex-dividend date as declared by the Issuer of the Shares for any dividend
amount.

Strike Adjustment: The Call Strike Price and Put Strike Price components of the
Transaction shall be decreased by either a USD cash amount or stock dividend
amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent and declared by the Issuer of
the Share on the day in which such dividends would have been received by the
corporate shareholder of record of the Shares during the Term of this
Transaction, provided that, if an ex-dividend date occurs with respect to the
Shares on or before the Valuation Date and no corresponding payments have been
received by shareholders of record of the Shares on or before such date, then
the dividends to which such ex-dividend date relates shall be deemed to be
dividends for purposes hereof.

     Such adjustment shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent in accordance
     with the following formula:


     Cash Adjustment (provided JPMorgan elects to receive cash dividends):

     Call Strike Price, or Put Strike Price (as applicable) * [(Closing Price -
     Dividends) divided by the Closing Price]

     Physical Adjustment (provided JPMorgan) elects to receive shares as
     dividends):

     Call Strike Price, or Put Strike Price (as applicable) divided by [ 1 +
     (New Shares divided by Outstanding Shares)]

to which such ex-dividend date relates shall be deemed to be dividends for

          Dividends)]

          Physical Adjustment (provided JPMorgan elects to receive shares as
          dividends):

          Number of Options * [ 1 + (New Shares divided by Outstanding Shares)]

          "Closing Price" means, the closing price of the Shares on the Exchange
          one Exchange Business Day prior to any ex-dividend date during the
          period commencing on the Trade Date and ending on the relevant
          Valuation Date.

          declared and paid by the Issuer of the Shares.

          using as reference any relevant Bloomberg screen page.

          (k) With respect to the Number of Options, and for purposes of Article
2.2 of the Equity Definitions and this Transaction, Counterparty shall be
considered the Buyer and JPMorgan the Seller of a number of Put Options equal to
the Number of Options and with a Strike Price equal to the Put Strike Price, and
JPMorgan shall be considered the Buyer and Counterparty the Seller of a number
of Call Options equal to the Number of Options and with a Strike Price equal to
the Call Strike Price.

Role of Agent: Each party agrees and acknowledges that (i) J.P. Morgan

date the "Ex-Dividend Date") from, but excluding, the Trade Date to, and
including, the Valuation Date, JPMorgan shall pay to Counterparty, on the date
such dividend is paid or, in the event that such dividend is paid after the
Valuation Date, the Cash Settlement Payment Date, the net U.S. Dollar amount
(after giving effect to any withholding or any other tax applicable at the time
at which such cash dividend is paid or if not paid to be paid (as of the
Ex-Dividend Date)) of such cash dividend paid or to be paid with respect to one
Share where the "Valuation Date" is the Ex-Dividend Date, multiplied by the
Number of Shares, excluding, however, special cash dividends to the extent that
such special cash dividends have an effect on the price of the Shares on the
Exchange, all as calculated and announced by the Issuer.

          (h) The Counterparty represents and warrants that it, nor any of its
affiliates is in possession of any material non-public information with respect
to the Shares prior to entering into this Transaction.

          (i) Counterparty agrees that if Physical Settlement is elected, as
specified in Section 7(d) herein, all conversion costs will be borne by the
Counterparty.

          (j) Adjustments: Calculation Agent shall adjust the Call Strike Price
and Put Strike Price components of the Transaction by the Strike Adjustment
provisions, and the Number of Options component of the Transaction by the Number
of Options Adjustment provisions. The Calculation agent shall notify
Counterparty (either telephonically or by fax transmissions) as to whether the
Calculation Agent shall adjust the Call Strike Price and Put Strike Price using
either a Cash Adjustment or Physical Adjustment, as determined by the
Calculation Agent at least ten (10) Exchange Business Days following any
ex-dividend date as declared by the Issuer of the Shares for any dividend
amount.

Strike Adjustment: The Call Strike Price and Put Strike Price components of the
Transaction shall be decreased by either a USD cash amount or stock dividend
amount, as determined by the Calculation Agent and declared by the Issuer of the
Share on the day in which such dividends would have been received by the
corporate shareholder of record of the Shares during the Term of this
Transaction, provided that, if an ex-dividend date occurs with respect to the
Shares on or before the Valuation Date and no corresponding payments have been
received by shareholders of record of the Shares on or before such date, then
the dividends to which such ex-dividend date relates shall be deemed to be
dividends for purposes hereof.

          Such adjustment shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent in
          accordance with the following formula:

          Cash Adjustment (provided JPMorgan elects to receive cash dividends):

          Call Strike Price, or Put Strike Price (as applicable) * [(Closing
          Price-Dividends) divided by the Closing Price]

          Physical Adjustment (provided JPMorgan) elects to receive shares as
          dividends):

          Call Strike Price, or Put Strike Price (as applicable) divided by [ 1
          + (New Shares divided by Outstanding Shares)]

                  gives or places in trust, or carries out any transaction or
                  enters into any contract of a commercial or civil nature,
                  in Mexico or abroad, with regard to the SHARES or OPTIONS.

FOUR:    TECHNICAL COMMITTEE

         Under the terms and for the purposes set forth in Article 80
         of the Credit Institutions Act, with this legal act, a
         Technical Committee is established, according to the following
         rules:

         (a)      Composition: The Technical Committee will be made up
                  of three persons, and CEMEX appoints for these
                  purposes:

                  (i)      LORENZO H. ZAMBRANO ________________________

                  (ii)     C.P. GUSTAVO A. CABALLERO __________________

                  (iii)    ARMANDO J. GARCIA S. _______________________

                  Lorenzo H. Zambrano will be Chairman. The members of the
                  Technical Committee appointed herein may only be removed or
                  replaced as set forth in this section, except in the case of
                  death, total disability - declared by law - or express,
                  written resignation. The chairman may not be removed. As
                  required, the Chairman will submit to the Trustee the related
                  documents, and the Trustee will convey these to CEMEX so that
                  it may make the related new appointment.

                  The Committee Chairman may freely replace or remove the other
                  two members; for these purposes, he will inform the Trustee in
                  this regard. Once the Trustee has received the information,
                  the person appointed is



9

               deemed to have assumed the related duties, and the person
               replaced ceases to carry them out.

          (b)  Operation: The Technical Committee will meet as often as is
               necessary, and no formal meeting is required. It is sufficient
               for a written memorandum to be sent, signed by at least two
               members, one of whom must be the Chairman, clearly setting forth
               the agreements and decisions made. For them to be deemed valid,
               the Chairman must send this memorandum to the Trustee, and once
               the Trustee has received it, the Committee will be subsequently
               be held harmless for all liability for its related actions, as is
               set forth in article 80 of the General Law on Credit
               Institutions.

               In the event that the Technical Committee agrees to meet at a
               given time and place, the Trustee may attend the meeting, without
               a vote.

               The decisions of the Technical Committee will only be valid if
               they are approved by the Chairman and one other member.

          (c)  Powers: The Technical Committee will decide on those matters
               which, in accordance with the stipulations of this agreement,
               must be submitted for its consideration and on other matters
               submitted by the Trustee for its consideration.

FIVE:     OPTIONS.

          The Technical Committee will be the body to determine who will be
          deemed ELIGIBLE PERSONS in addition to members of the Board of
          Directors (Statutory Auditors, whether regular or alternate) of CEMEX,
          S.A. de C.V., who are deemed ELIGIBLE for purposes of this agreement.
          The Trustee, through authorization of the Technical Committee, will
          grant and will legally record the granting of OPTIONS with the
          ELIGIBLE PERSONS, proceeding pursuant to the following criteria:

          (a) OPTIONS will be granted whenever the Technical Committee so
          determines.



10

          (b)  Each OPTION will specify the number of SHARES that may be
               subscribed or purchased by the ELIGIBLE PERSON; that number will
               be determined by multiplying the base salary received by the
               ELIGIBLE PERSON (payroll together with benefits as is determined
               by the Technical Committee) by a percentage set by the Technical
               Committee, itself, and the result will be divided by the per
               share market value of the SHARES. The market value will be
               determined by the Technical Committee, taking into account the
               share price of the SHARES listed on the Mexican Securities
               Exchange.

          (c)  OPTIONS assigned may be exercised within a period of (10) ten
               years counted from the year immediately following that in which
               they are granted and legally recorded. An ELIGIBLE PERSON may,
               starting in the twelfth month following that in which the OPTIONS
               were granted exercise only 25% of the OPTIONS per year of the
               OPTIONS granted him. (In other words, he may purchase or
               subscribe 25% of the total number of shares covered by the
               OPTIONS) Subsequently, that is, starting in the (4th) fourth year
               after the date on which granting of the OPTIONS was legally
               recorded, until the final year of the 10-year period, he may
               exercise all the OPTIONS not exercised. In the event that the
               ELIGIBLE PERSON dies, is declared to be under injunction or is
               permanently disabled -- through court decision, retires, is
               dismissed without cause, or retires for reasons attributable to
               the employer from his position at CEMEX or any of the CONTROLLED
               CORPORATIONS, once these events are effectively confirmed to the
               Trustee, the OPTIONS assigned will be 100% exercisable for a
               maximum period of (3) three years counted from the time when the
               Trustee states his acceptance.

               In the event of dismissal with cause of an employee at CEMEX or
               any of its Controlled Corporations, the Technical Committee will
               so advise the Trustee, and the Trustee will notify the related
               ELIGIBLE PERSON that he as a period of (30) thirty days to
               exercise the OPTIONS assigned to him, with the understanding that
               if the


11

               dismissal was within the (4) four years following that in which
               the OPTIONS were assigned, they could only be exercised for
               options assigned within the aforementioned (4) four years, the
               percentage to which he had a right in accordance with the number
               of years elapsed since the OPTIONS were assigned, through the
               date on which his work contract was terminated, and said OPTIONS
               are applicable insofar as they have not yet been exercised, which
               is understood, as a matter of law.

          (d)  OPTIONS not exercised within the period stipulated will elapse,
               and will be null and void. The calculation of periods stipulated
               will be based on calendar days.

          (e)  As of their appointment, members of the Board of Directors and
               Statutory Auditors (Regular and Alternate) of CEMEX, S.A. de
               C.V., will be assigned OPTIONS as indicated by the Technical
               Committee, and subsections (a), (c) and (d) above will not be
               applicable. Purchases through the exercise of OPTIONS and sales
               of the shares purchased will be carried out on predetermined
               days.

SIX:      OBLIGATIONS OF THE TRUSTORS.

          (a): CEMEX and/or the other CONTROLLED CORPORATIONS that are trustors,
               agree to maintain an adequate number of SHARES in the Trust
               Assets to cover the exercise of OPTIONS. For such purposes, they
               may purchase OPTIONS or contribute funds required or obtain the
               necessary financing, in accordance with the terms and conditions
               of this agreement, to purchase or subscribe the SHARES required.

          (b): In the event that the issuer of the SHARES agrees to
               consolidation, restructuring, spinning off or splitting of



12

               its capital stock or the replacement of the securities that cover
               them, the OPTIONS already granted will be exercisable with regard
               to the number of SHARES that results, taking into account the new
               shares issued to replace them or to be added for each of the
               prior shares. For these purposes, the Trustors (CEMEX and the
               CONTROLLED CORPORATIONS) agree, in the event that the SHARES were
               not contributed or purchased by the Trustee, to contribute the
               SHARES or funds required for their purchase equivalent to the
               SHARES with regard to which the OPTIONS assigned were
               exercisable.

          (c): In the event of Capital Increases through Capitalization of
               Reserves, the OPTIONS already granted will be exercisable with
               regard to the number of SHARES that will result, including those
               issued per outstanding share.

               In the event that the Beneficiary has not contributed the SHARES,
               the Trustors agree to make the necessary contributions in order
               to back the exercise of OPTIONS under the terms and conditions
               stipulated.

               ***************************************************

SEVEN:    SALE AND PAYING IN OF SHARES PURCHASED.

          Only with the authorization of the Technical Committee may SHARES
          PURCHASED be delivered to ELIGIBLE PERSONS, provided that the Person
          is not liable for any debt derived from the exercise of his OPTIONS.

          For purposes of the sale of the SHARES PURCHASED, in the event that
          the Eligible Person is liable for debt derived from the purchasing of
          said shares, the Technical Committee, within (15) fifteen subsequent
          days, will proceed to sell the SHARES PURCHASED on the Mexican
          Securities Exchange or in a recognized market, and the proceeds will
          be applied to payment of the debt, with the remaining amount credited
          to the related ELIGIBLE PERSON(S).



                                       13

          In any other event, they may only give instructions to sell SHARES
          PURCHASED at intervals of (30) thirty days starting from the time when
          they are purchased, and the first instructions may be given within (5)
          five days of their purchase.

EIGHT:    POWERS OF THE TRUSTEE.

          The Trustee will have all the powers required to carry out the
          purposes of this Trust stipulated in section THREE including, but not
          limited to, the powers and obligations to which Article 356 of the
          General Law of Securities and Credit Transactions refers.
          Specifically, the Trustee has the authority to grant powers of
          attorney in favor of the persons designated by the Technical
          Committee, so that in the regular Shareholders' Meetings of CEMEX,
          said attorneys in fact may exercise the corporate rights inherent in
          SHARES and SHARES PURCHASED.

NINE:     SUBSCRIPTION OF NEW SHARES AND EXERCISE OF OPTIONS.

          (i)  In the event that CEMEX increases its Capital Stock through new
               contributions, CEMEX will notify the Technical Committee the day
               immediately after that on which the Board of Directors approves
               the related proposal for submission to the regular Shareholders'
               Meeting. The Technical Committee will notify the Trustors that
               have contributed SHARES and SHARES PURCHASED to advise them that
               they have the right to subscribe the shares issued if the capital
               increase is approved, as the case may be, in the proportion that
               the SHARES and the SHARES PURCHASED represent the Capital Stock
               of CEMEX, of which it is holder through the Trustee, and, as the
               case may be, as is set forth in the Corporate Bylaws of CEMEX and
               in the resolutions adopted by the Shareholders' Meeting.

               Trustors who wish to subscribe a capital increase must provide
               the Trustee with the necessary funds (2) two business days in
               advance of the date on which the period



                                       14

               for exercising preemptive rights expires.

               In order to exercise the rights of OPTIONS [obtained by Trustee],
               and OPTIONS [granted by Trustee], a person will proceed as
               follows: (a) OPTIONS [obtained by Trustee]: When they are
               purchased, the Trustee will inform the Technical Committee of the
               related terms and conditions. The Technical Committee must notify
               the Trustee (2) two business days before the period set for the
               exercise, so the inherent rights may be exercised. The Technical
               Committee will handle this, providing the Trust or, as the case
               may be, authorizing the use of the funds required for this
               purpose from Trust Assets; OPTIONS [granted by Trustee]: In this
               case, the ELIGIBLE PERSONS that are holders of these Rights must
               deliver the required amounts to the Trustee in order to cover the
               EXERCISE PRICE, on the day set as the exercise date, at the
               latest. The Trustee, pursuant to instructions given to it by the
               Technical Committee, may grant loans to the holders of the
               OPTIONS so that they may cover the EXERCISE PRICE.

TEN:           DOCUMENTATION OF OPTIONS [granted by Trustee]:

               As determined by the Trust's Technical Committee and subject to
               the legal provisions applicable, OPTIONS will be issued giving
               the right to purchase (or subscribe) SHARES.

               In a written document, the Trust will make an OFFER to ELIGIBLE
               PERSONS, offering SHARES for them to buy or subscribe. The
               ELIGIBLE PERSONS, to whom the Offer is made must confirm their
               acceptance, without reservations, in the document submitted to
               him/them by the Trustee, adhering as Trustors to the terms and
               conditions of this Agreement applicable to SHARES PURCHASED.

               The Offer will contain the number of SHARES, the purchase or
               subscription price and the periods and conditions for carrying
               out the purchase or subscription. The ELIGIBLE PERSONS will pay a
               premium (to be determined by the Technical Committee) to the
               Trustee, once the Offer is accepted.



                                       15

               The Trustee's Offer will indicate the manner and terms in which
               the premium and the EXERCISE PRICE must be paid, and it will
               state that the purchase or subscription will be subject to the
               Trust Assets having a sufficient number of SHARES. It will also
               include the stipulations contained in Sections THREE and SIX of
               this Agreement and the condition that SHARES PURCHASED will
               remain part of the Trust Assets, and that the voting rights may
               be exercised as indicated by the Technical Committee.

               To this end, the provisions contained in articles 1804, 1805,
               1806, 1807, 1808 and 1810 of the Federal Civil Code will be
               applicable.

ELEVEN:        TERM.

               This Agreement will have a maximum term of (30) thirty years
               pursuant to the provisions of Article 359 of the General Law on
               Securities and Credit Transactions. Notwithstanding the
               foregoing, it may be cancelled by agreement of the Trustors, who
               reserve that right, for all legal purposes that may arise.

               This Trust may not be cancelled as long as OPTIONS or loans
               granted to or by the Trust are outstanding, or payment thereof
               has not been made in full.

               Upon termination of the Trust, the Trustee will return the
               property of the Trust Assets to the Trustors who have the right
               thereto, pursuant to the records and controls that the Trustee
               must maintain.

TWELVE:        CONTROL.

               The Trustee must maintain an individual record for each Trustor,
               which allows it to identify the portion of the Trust Assets
               related to each Trustor.

               In the event of loans granted, the Trust Assets, with the
               exception of SHARES PURCHASED and their gains or yields, will be
               proportionally liable in accordance with the



                                       16

               proportion contributed by each Trustor. The same criterion to
               which the payment of Trust Assets refers, will be applied in
               granting loans

               All transactions related to administration and custody of the
               SHARES and SHARES PURCHASED will be effected through the
               Institution authorized for deposits of securities.

               SHARES PURCHASED and OPTIONS may not be assigned, pledged or
               transferred in any way nor may the inherent or resulting rights
               be assigned without express consent from the Technical Committee.

THIRTEEN:      PROHIBITIONS.

               Section XIX, subsection (b) of Article 106 of the Law on Credit
               Institutions precisely sets forth the following:

               "Article 106. Credit Institutions are prohibited from:

               "XIX...Carrying out transactions referred to in Section XV of
               Article 46 of this Law:

               b) Assuming liability toward trustors, principals or assignors
               for default of their borrowers, for the loans they grant, or, or
               default by those who issue the loans, for the securities they
               purchase, unless it is through their fault, as is set forth in
               the final part of Article 356 of the General Law on Securities
               and Credit Transactions, or guaranteeing returns on the funds
               whose investment is entrusted to them.

               If, upon termination of the trust, commission or brokerage
               established for granting loans, they have not been paid off by
               the borrowers, the institution must transfer them to the trustor
               or beneficiary, as the case may be, or to the principal or
               assignor, refraining from covering these amounts.



                                       17

               Any agreement contrary to the provisions in the two prior
               paragraphs will not have any legal effect whatsoever.

               The final part of Article 356 (three hundred fifty-six) of the
               General Law on Securities and Credit Transactions obligates the
               trustee to carry out his duty pursuant to the contract
               stipulations, which is to act in a reasonable manner, assuming
               liability for the losses or a damaged reputation if the assets
               and rights were damaged through his fault.

FOURTEEN:      THE TRUSTEE'S RESPONSIBILITY

               It is expressly agreed that the Trustee will be liable for the
               obligations that result from signing the Trust, only to the
               extent of the Trust assets. The Trustee must include this
               stipulation in the documents and contracts it signs in carrying
               out the Trust. The Trustee will be held harmless from any
               liability derived from transactions performed in carrying out the
               instructions received from the Technical Committee, and it will
               not be obligated to carry out said instructions if they are
               contrary to the legal nature or purposes of the Trust. Similarly,
               it is agreed that the Trustee will not incur any liability
               whatsoever whenever -- because it did not furnish the funds
               required for this purpose in a timely manner -- shares issued by
               CEMEX by virtue of an increase in capital stock were not
               subscribed, or the rights inherent in the OPTIONS not exercised,
               pursuant to the provisions set therein.

               When, in order to carry out the purposes of the Trust, it is

LORENZO H. ZAMBRANO; PURSUANT TO THE FOLLOWING RECITALS AND CONDITIONS:

                                  --RECITALS--

I.    On August 10, 1995, the appearing parties entered into the Trust Contract
      referred to in the heading.

II.   On April 25, 1996, CEMEX, S.A. DE C.V. held a Special General
      Shareholders' Meeting, in which the Option Plan was authorized whereby
      "ELIGIBLE PERSONS " would exhibit the value of the "Shares" authorized for
      said Plan and which make up part of the Capital Increase approved by the
      Regular General Shareholders' Meeting of April 27, 1995.

III.  In view of the Resolutions of the Shareholders' Meeting of April 25, 1996,
      the appearing parties have decided to execute this agreement to amend
      Trust Agreement No. 110910-1, authorized by the Trustee's Technical
      Committee, in witness where if its members are signing this Agreement.

IV.   In view of the above Recitals, the appearing parties mutually agree to the
      following:

                            --TERMS AND CONDITIONS--

ONE:  Other than the provisions modified herein, each and every one of the parts
      of Trust Agreement No. 110910-1 are modified and, for the purposes
      thereof, the definitions used in that



      agreement shall be understood to be incorporated into this Agreement as
      if they formed and integral part hereof.

TWO.  MODIFICATION OF ARTICLE FIVE of Trust Agreement No. 110910-1, which shall
      read as follows:

      "FIVE. OPTION RIGHTS":

      The Technical Committee shall determine who will be "ELIGIBLE PERSONS" in
      addition to the members of the Board of Directors and Commissioners,
      Owners, and Alternates, of CEMEX, S.A. DE C.V., who shall be considered
      "ELIGIBLE" for the purposes of this agreement. The Trustee, by
      authorization of the Technical Committee, shall grant and formalize with
      the "ELIGIBLE PERSONS" the granting of the "OPTION RIGHTS," in accordance
      with the following criteria:

      a)  The "OPTION RIGHTS" shall be granted at the time determined by the
          Technical Committee.

      b)  Each "OPTION RIGHT" shall specify the number of "SHARES" that the
          "ELIGIBLE PERSON" may subscribe or purchase; said number shall be
          determined by the Technical Committee as instructed by the Board of
          Directors of Cemex, S.A. de C.V. and taking into account the capacity
          of the "ELIGIBLE PERSONS" to perform the work.

      c)  The "OPTION RIGHTS" assigned may be exercised within a maximum of up
          to fifteen (15) years (the "Exercise Period"), which period shall run
          from the date the granting of the "OPTION RIGHTS" is formalized.



      After 1 (one) year has elapsed (for all purposes, the deadlines or terms
      referred to below shall start to run once this year has passed), the
      "OPTION RIGHTS" may be exercised and, consequently, "THE SHARES" may be
      subscribed or purchased, as instructed by the Technical Committee
      defining the parameters, terms, and conditions in accordance with the
      following modalities: (i) up to 25% (twenty-five percent) of all the
      Shares that include "OPTION RIGHTS" each year during the first working
      day of the July; (ii) up to 50% (fifty percent) of all the Shares that
      include "OPTION RIGHTS," in the (4th) fourth year during the first
      working day of December and the other 50% (fifty percent) when the
      "ELIGIBLE PERSON" reaches 55 (fifty-five) years of age or 15 (fifteen)
      years of seniority on the job counting from the date on which the "OPTION
      RIGHTS" were granted, the first working day of July of the year in which
      the first of these events occurs, provided in both cases that 5 (five)
      years have passed since the "OPTION RIGHTS" were granted; or (iii) 100%
      (one hundred percent) of the "Shares" in the 4th (fourth) year during the
      first working day of December, as instructed by the Technical Committee.

      Any Shares not purchased on the predetermined dates may be purchased each
      month, once the 30 (thirty) days have passed from the predetermined date,
      on the corresponding working day and until the exercise period has ended.

      For the purpose of the sale of the "Purchased Shares," the Trustee may
      take sales orders only within the 15 (fifteen) days



      immediately following the purchase or, if applicable on the 15th
      (fifteenth) of each month or on the working day immediately following if
      the 15th was not a working day.

      For "OPTION RIGHTS" assigned before April 1 (first), (1996) nineteen
      hundred and ninety-six, the following shall apply.

      In the event that the "ELIGIBLE PERSON" dies, is declared under
      injunction, or permanently disabled, by means of a court order, or
      retires, is fired without case or retires for a reason attributable to
      the employer, from his job at "CEMEX" or any of the "CONTROLLED
      COMPANIES" and once these events have been reliably documented to the
      Trustee, 100% of the assigned "OPTION RIGHTS" may be exercised with in a
      maximum of (3) three years, starting from the date the Trustee states its
      acceptance and provided the exercise period has not elapsed.

      If an employee is fired with cause from his or her job with CEMEX or with
      any of the Controlled Companies, the Technical Committee shall notify the
      Trustee, who shall notify the corresponding "ELIGIBLE PERSON" that he or
      she has (30) thirty days to exercise the assigned "OPTION RIGHTS," with
      the understanding that if the firing occurred within the (4) four years
      following that in which the "OPTION RIGHTS" were assigned, for those
      rights assigned within those (4) four, he or she may exercise only the
      percentage vested based on the number of years from the time "OPTION
      RIGHTS" until his or



      her employment contract is terminated, and the unexercised portion of the
      "OPTION RIGHTS," and his "OPTION RIGHTS" in the unexercised portion shall
      automatically end.

      In any other case, in the event of death, court-ordered injunction,
      permanent disability declared by a court order, retirement, firing
      without cause or involuntary retirement, with regard to his or her
      employment with CEMEX, S.A. DE C.V. or any of the "CONTROLLED COMPANIES,"
      the "ELIGIBLE PERSON" or his or her heirs they must be on the
      predetermined dates or dates agreed to for the purchase of the Shares.

      In the case of voluntary retirement or firing with cause, any "OPTION
      RIGHTS" granted under modalities (ii) and (iii) of subparagraph c) of
      this article, shall be revoked with no need for a court order.

THREE: MODIFICATION OF ARTICLE TWELVE of Trust Agreement No. 110910-1, so that
      it reads as follows:

      TWELVE: CONTROLS
      The Trustee shall keep the following records and/or controls.

      (i) One clearly indicating the number of the "Shares" and whether they are
          merely subscribed or, if applicable, whether it involves paid-up
          Shares. This record shall be kept up-to-date and, if applicable, the
          Certificates shall be replaced as the Shares are purchased in exercise
          of the "OPTION RIGHTS."



            It must clearly indicate whether the "Purchased Shares" are those
            that the Trustee kept subscribed and that corresponded to the
            Treasury Shares representing Capital Increases intended for the
            Option Plan, or in applicable, if it involves paid-up Shares
            previously purchased by the Trustee.

      (ii). Another record indicating the "Purchased Shares" belonging to each
            "ELIGIBLE PERSON" as s result of its "OPTION RIGHTS" and, of these,
            those that have been sold and the remaining balance.

      (iii) Any others that are necessary or appropriate or, if applicable, as
            instructed by the Technical Committee.

      In the case of credits granted, they shall be paid from the Trust Assets,
      with the exception of the "PURCHASED SHARES" and their profits and
      earnings, in proportion to the portions held by each Trustor. The same
      criterion, in regard to the allocation of these Trust Assets shall apply
      to the granting of credits.

      All transactions pertaining to the management and safekeeping of the
      "SHARES" and "PURCHASED SHARES" shall be paid through the Institution
      authorized for Depositing Securities.

      The "PURCHASED SHARES" or "OPTION RIGHTS," or the rights inherent therein
      or resulting therefrom, may not be assigned, given as collateral, or in
      any way disposed of without the express consent of the Technical
      Committee.



      The rights in the Trust of the "ELIGIBLE PERSONS" may not be assigned,
      transferred, or given as collateral without the express consent of the
      Technical Committee.

FOUR: Except for the provisions expressly modified under this Agreement, all
      parts of Trust Agreement No. 110910-1 are ratified, forming an integral
      part of the modifications agreed to herein.

      This Agreement is executed on June 19 (nineteenth) of 1996 (nineteen
      hundred and ninety-six).

         order to facilitate the enforcement and/or performance of the
         resolutions adopted by the Shareholders' Meeting, the Board of
         Directors, or any other intermediary administrative body of Cemex, S.A.

         following rules, if applicable:

         1.   If an employee is fired with cause, the option rights may be

              in which he or she was given notice and only for the paid-up
              portions of the option rights; the unexercised portion of option
              rights shall be automatically revoked.

         2.   If an employee resigns voluntarily, the option rights may be
              exercised within 3 (three) years from the time he leaves the
              company and only for the paid-up portions of the option rights;
              the unexercised portion of option rights shall be automatically
              revoked.

         3.   In the event of death, permanent disability, or retirement, the
              option rights may be exercised on the predetermined dates,
              starting from the date each Plan is granted for 100% of the
              options granted, paid-up or not

         4.   If an employee is fired without cause or resigns for reasons
              attributable to CEMEX, the option rights may be exercised within 4
              (four) years of the firing or resignation, on the exercise dates
              and in the percentages granted in each Plan, for 100% of the

         If the bearer of the `OPTION RIGHTS' acts fraudulently or in bad faith
         against, or carries out acts that damage or injure Cemex S.A. de C.V.
         or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, direct or indirect, all of
         the OPTION RIGHTS granted to the perpetrator shall be automatically
         revoked, without the need for a court order, from the last working day
         of the month following the one in which the Technical Committee
         notified the Trustee about the enforcement of the contractual penalty
         in that matter.

         The bearers of the OPTION RIGHTS shall be obligated to Cemex, S.A. de
         C.V. or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, direct or indirect,
         while its `OPTION RIGHTS' are in effect, not to provide its services in
         any way (by itself or through a third party), nor to form a partnership
         or company with third parties (by itself or through an intermediary),
         who are involved directly or through other persons, entities, or trusts
         in the production or marketing of cement or cement byproducts; if the
         bearer of the `OPTION RIGHTS' wishes to provide its services to, or
         form a partnership or a company with persons or entities involved in
         any way (directly or indirectly through other persons under their
         control or associated with them) in the production or marketing of
         cement and cement byproducts, it shall notify the Technical Committee
         in writing. The Technical Committee may then release it from its
         obligation under this clause, with the understanding that at the end of
         this provision of services, company, or partnership, the bearer of the
         OPTION RIGHTS shall remain subject to its obligation under this article
         until the end of the period stipulated herein. The breach of



                                 [LOGO] Banamex

         this obligation by the bearer of the OPTION RIGHTS shall [make] all of
         the OPTION RIGHTS that have been granted to be automatically revoked
         without the need for a court order, starting from the last working day
         of the month following the one in which the Technical Committee
         notified the Trustee of the application of this contractual penalty in

performs in fulfillment of instructions it receives from the Technical Committee

because it was not furnished with the necessary funds for this purpose in a
timely manner, or it fails to fulfill the rights inherent in the OPTIONS, as
specified in the instructions.

the purpose of the Trust and the failure to do so could patently damage the
Trust Corpus, if it is not possible to convene the Technical Committee, the
TRUSTEE may, as an exception, act in its discretion, always acting pursuant to
good banking practices.

outcome of any arrangements said representative makes, nor for the payment of
his fees and expenses, since these will be charged to the Trust Corpus, it being

internal policies with regard to the use of manual procedures for receiving and
processing instructions transmitted by fax or other manual methods. As a result,
the individual designated by the Technical Committee for these purposes must
sign a document with the Fiduciary that contains those policies, at the same
time that this Agreement is signed.

Twenty One. Terms and Conditions for the Trustee's Services. In order to induce
the Trustee to enter into this Agreement, the Trust Founders and Creditor Trust
Beneficiary agree to the following with the Trustee:

(a) The Trustee will not be part of the Technical Committee, and therefore will




         only be obligated to act in accordance with the written instructions it
         receives from the Technical Committee, and will not have any obligation
         whatsoever to determine the authenticity of the content of or
         signatures on any of the instructions. The Trust Founders and the
         Creditor Trust Beneficiary recognize that the Trustee maintains certain
         internal policies with regard to the use of manual procedures for
         receiving and processing instructions transmitted by fax or other
         manual methods. As a result, the Trust Founders, through the Technical
         Committee, the Creditor Trust Beneficiary and the individual regular
         and alternate members of the Technical Committee, submit to and bind
         themselves in the terms of the document that contains those policies,
         which they signed with the Trustee prior to signing this Agreement;

(b)      The Trustee will not be obligated to exercise a greater level of care
         in preserving the Trust Assets than that level of care that it utilizes
         with its own assets. The Trustee will not be obligated to invest the
         amounts that are deposited in the Trust Account unless it receives
         written instructions from the Technical Committee. Any amount forming
         part of the Trust Assets that has not been invested will not earn any
         interest whatsoever;

(c)      The Trustee is expressly and irrevocably authorized, through prior
         notice to the Technical Committee, to utilize the amounts deposited in
         the Trust Account to pay any costs, fees, commissions and other
         expenses directly or indirectly deriving herefrom;

(d)      This Agreement expressly establishes all the Trustee's obligations. The
         Trustee does not assume any implicit obligation whatsoever under the
         Agreement, or obligations directly or directly deriving from covenants
         or agreements between the Trust Founders and the Creditor Trust
         Beneficiary or between them and any third party;

(e)      The Trustee will be liable solely and exclusively for the damages
         directly generated by its inexcusable negligence or bad faith in all
         matters relative to (i) the investment or reinvestment of the amounts
         deposited in the Trust Account; (ii) the receipt, custody and disposal
         of the Acquired Optional Certificates of Purchase, the Acquired OPCs
         and all other instruments deposited in the Securities Account; (iii)
         the losses or yields resulting from the investment, reinvestment or
         disposal of the Trust Assets; and (iv) in general, the performance of
         its obligations hereunder;

(f)      The Trust Founders and Creditor Trust Beneficiary jointly, severally
         and unlimitedly agree to indemnify and hold the Trustee, its
         subsidiaries, affiliates and related companies and their respective
         Board Members, officers, employees, representatives and agents harmless
         for any loss, liability, claim, legal action, damage and expense,
         including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, that derive or may
         derive herefrom;

(g)      The Trust Founders and Creditor Trust Beneficiary will be jointly,
         severally and unlimitedly liable for any tax, fee, contribution or
         fiscal responsibility of any nature that derives or may derive from or
         is due in connection with this Agreement or the Trust Assets, and
         jointly, severally and unlimitedly agree to indemnify and hold the
         Trustee harmless for any





         amounts that the Trustee is obligated to pay by virtue of such taxes.
         The obligations of the Trust Founders and the Creditor Trust
         Beneficiary outlined in this sub-clause and in sub-clause (f) above
         will continue to be in full force and effect even after the termination
         date hereof or the date on which the Trustee resigns; but in any case,
         for a maximum period of 3 (three) years after the termination date of
         this Agreement.

(h)      The Trustee unequivocally informed the parties hereto of the scope and
         legal consequences of the provisions of the first three paragraphs of
         sub-clause (b), fraction XIX, Article 106 (one hundred six) of the
         Lending Institutions Act, which literally read as follows:

         Article 106 - The following will be prohibited for lending
                       institutions:

         XIX - In making the transactions referenced in fraction XV, Article 46
               of this Law:

         (b) To respond to trust founders, agents or principals for breach of
         agreement by debtors for the loans granted, or by issuers for
         securities acquired, except if they are at fault, as stipulated in the
         final part of Article 356 of the General Law on Credit Instruments and
         Transactions, or to guarantee the perception of yields for the funds
         whose investment is entrusted to them.

         If, at the end of the trust, agency or commission created to grant
         loans, those loans have not been paid off by the debtors, the
         institution will transfer them to the Trust Founders or Trust
         Beneficiaries, as appropriate, or to the agent or principal, refraining
         for covering the amount involved.

         Any agreement contrary to the provisions of the two paragraphs above
         will have no legal effect whatsoever.

(i)      The Trustee will in no case be liable for the validity, value or
         enforceability of the Issue Document, the Receiving Rights, the
         Acquired Optional Certificates, the Acquired OPCs or any other
         instrument or right directly or indirectly related hereto, and is not
         obligated in any form whatsoever under the terms and conditions of the
         Issue Document;

(j)      The Trust Founders and Creditor Trust Beneficiary agree and recognize
         that the Trustee will not have any liability: (i) in the event that the
         Trust Assets or any part thereof are expropriated, nationalized or
         confiscated; (ii) for breach of its obligations hereunder for reasons
         or circumstances beyond its control; or (iii) for the legal capacity of
         all other parties hereto to acquire or maintain ownership of the Trust
         Assets;

(k)      The Trustee will not provide or be responsible for providing the Trust
         Founders or the Creditor Trust Beneficiary with any advice whatsoever
         with regard to the advisability or inadvisability of investing,
         selling, keeping, taking or not taking any action or decision with
         regard to the Issue Document, the Receiving Rights or any other
         instrument or right directly or indirectly related hereto;




(l)      The Trustee (and any other trustee that replaces it) may resign its
         position as Trustee at any time by (i) issuing written notice to the
         Technical Committee; and (ii) delivering the Trust Assets in the terms
         indicated by the Technical Committee in writing. If the Technical
         Committee fails to submit written instructions to the Trustee for that
         purpose within 60 (sixty) calendar days after the date on which the
         Trustee resigns, the Trustee will consign the Trust Assets to any
         competent authority without any liability whatsoever, and the Trustee
         will be released from each and every one of its obligations deriving
         herefrom.

(m)      In the event of a dispute between the Trust Founders, the Creditor
         Trust Beneficiary and/or the Technical Committee that results or may
         result in claims or lawsuits in connection herewith, the Trustee is
         authorized (i) to withhold the Trust Assets until (x) it receives a
         final and definitive decision from the competent court ordering the
         delivery of the Trust Assets; or (y) a Liquidation Notice from the
         Technical Committee; or (z) a written agreement signed by all the Trust
         Founders and the Creditor Trust Beneficiary instructing the Trustee to
         distribute the Trust Assets; or alternatively (ii) to consign the Trust
         Assets to any competent authority without any liability whatsoever. In
         any case, the Trustee will be released from each and every one of its
         obligations deriving herefrom;

(n)      The Trust Founders and the Creditor Trust Beneficiary recognize that
         the Trustee is part of the international financial group known as
         Citigroup, and is therefore subject to the internal policies and rules
         of Citigroup and its subsidiary Citibank, N.A. with regard to the
         management and performance of trust services (the Internal Policies).
         As a result, if any instructions from any of the parties or any other
         action that the Trustee must take pursuant to this Agreement is
         contrary to the Internal Policies that are in place as of this date,
         the Trustee will immediately notify the parties of this circumstance so
         that they may reach the appropriate agreements and prevent the Trustee
         from committing a violation of the Internal Policies.

(o)      The Trust Founders, Creditor Trust Beneficiary and Technical Committee
         members agree not to utilize the Trustee's name or logo or those of its
         subsidiaries or related companies in any way whatsoever without prior
         written consent from the Trustee.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, and having read this Agreement, which consists of 22 pages

all the amendments to this Agreement that it deems appropriate, always
safeguarding the interests and benefits of the Trustors-Trustees. The parties
agree that, in case of such a Special Power-of-Attorney, there shall be no

members, and the Technical Committee and each of its members expressly and
irrevocably waive any compensation that might arise from the task entrusted to

such obligations for which the Trustors-Trustees are responsible. With respect
to the tax obligations with which the Trustee must comply as a consequence of
the performance of actions relative to the purposes of the trust or those
performed at the instructions of the Trustors-Trustees themselves or of the
Technical Committee, as applicable, the Trustee shall comply with such tax

in the event that there are not enough funds, the Trustors-Trustees and
Technical Committee, as the case may be, agree to increase the trust with
sufficient funds to comply with the tax obligations indicated in this clause.

furnish the Trustee, when the latter requests it, with all documents necessary
or sufficient to show that the tax obligations for which it is responsible have
been duly and fully complied with.

Eleven.- Collection of Yields and Form of Application. The Trustee shall be
empowered to collect the interest and other proceeds from the investments that

         to make use of the proportional part of the Purchase Rights that
         pertain to them, irrevocable individual notification for each

            may derive from the purchase and deposit of such Acquired CPO's, as
            well as from the sale of the respective Acquired CPO's; and (iii)
            third, the remainder, if any, shall be deposited, in Mexican Pesos,
            in the respective account of the Trustor-Trustee indicated by the
            Technical Committee for such purpose in the CPO Sale Instruction
            contained in the respective Exercise Instruction.

(b)      In the case stipulated in paragraph (a) number 1 of this Clause, the

(d)      under the terms indicated by the Technical Committee in each Exercise
         Instruction, the Trustee shall exercise the Purchase Rights pursuant to
         the provisions of the Option Agreement; with the understanding,
         however, that (i) in the cases in which the Trustee should undertake a
         Dollar purchase transaction with Mexican Pesos, pursuant to an Exercise
         Instruction, the Trustee shall quote and perform each one of such
         transactions exclusively through Banco Nacional de Mexico, S.A.; and
         (ii) the Trustee shall transfer the Acquired CPO's, or the result of
         the sale thereof, as the case may be, into the account or accounts
         indicated on each Exercise Instruction, within two Business Days after
         the date on which the Trustee receives the Acquired CPO's or the
         proceeds of the sale thereof, as the case may be.

(e)      it is expressly agreed that the Trustee is released from any and all
         liability that may be derived or derives from the exercise of the
         Purchase Rights pursuant to the provisions of this Clause. Each of the
         Trustors-Trustees shall be obligated jointly and severally and without
         limitation to indemnify and hold the Trustee harmless from any
         liability which derives or may be derived from the Trustee's actions or
         omissions in the performance of the instructions granted by the
         Technical Committee; however, the Trustee shall be obligated to
         indemnify the Trustors-Trustees for bad faith acts or actions beyond
         the authorities that pertain to it for the performance of the Trust, in
         virtue of the trust contract, the law or the instructions given by the
         Technical Committee, which it makes to the detriment of the
         Trustors-Trustees.

         grant a power or powers of attorney to the person or persons designated
         in writing by the Technical Committee (the "Agents"), without it
         thereby assuming any responsibility

14



         whatsoever for the actions of the Agents, which stipulation shall be
         transcribed in the document containing the power or powers of attorney
         granted, and provided that the Agents agree that the expenses and fees
         caused by their actions be paid to them directly by the
         Trustors-Trustees, without the Trustee being liable for any such items.

Fifteen. Expenses, Costs, Taxes, Commissions and Fees. All expenses,
commissions, taxes and fees which are reasonable and duly documented, derived

Twenty-Three. Terms and Conditions of the Trustee Service. In order to induce
the Trustee to enter into this Agreement, the Trustors-Trustees agree the
following with the Trustee:

(a)      the Trustee does not form part of the Technical Committee, wherefore it
         shall only be obligated to act pursuant to the instructions received in
         writing from the Technical Committee, and it shall not have any
         obligation whatsoever to determine the authenticity of the content or
         signature on any of such instructions. The Trustors-Trustees
         acknowledge that the Trustee has certain internal policies regarding
         the use of manual procedures to receive and process instructions
         transmitted by fax or other manual means. As a result, the
         Trustors-Trustees, and the full and alternate members of the Technical
         Committee subject and bind themselves under the terms of the document
         containing such policies, which they have entered into with the Trustee
         prior to signing this Agreement;

(b)      the Trustee shall not be obligated to exercise a greater degree of care
         in conserving the Trustee Assets than that degree of care it uses for
         its own property. The Trustee shall not be obligated to invest the
         amounts that are deposited in the Trust Account except as stipulated in
         Clause Six of this Agreement;

(c)      the Trustee is expressly and irrevocably authorized, upon prior
         notification to the Technical Committee, to use the amounts deposited
         in the Trust Account, to pay any costs, fees, commissions and other
         expenses directly or indirectly derived from this Agreement, subject to
         the terms and conditions established in the clauses of this Agreement;

(d)      this Agreement expressly establishes all the Trustee's obligations. The
         Trustee does not assume any implicit obligation whatsoever under this
         Agreement, nor obligations derived directly or indirectly from
         agreements or contracts of the Trustors-Trustees among themselves or
         with any third party;

(e)      the Trustors-Trustees jointly and severally undertake to indemnify and
         hold harmless the Trustee, its subsidiaries, affiliated and related
         parties, and their respective directors, officers, employees,
         mandataries and agents, from any loss, liability, claim, action, damage
         or expense, including attorneys' fees and expenses, which derive or may
         derive from this Agreement; however, the Trustee shall be obligated to
         indemnify the Trustors-

17



         Trustees for acts of bad faith or actions beyond the authorities that
         pertain to it for the performance of the trust, in accordance with the
         trust contract, the law or the instructions given by the Technical
         Committee, which it makes to the detriment of the Trustors-Trustees;

(f)      the Trustors-Trustees shall be jointly and severally liable without
         limitation for any tax, fee, contribution or tax liability of any
         nature derived or which may derive from or in relation to this
         Agreement and the Trust's Assets, and undertake jointly and severally,
         without limitation, to indemnify and hold the Trustee harmless for any
         payments which the Trustee is obligated to make in virtue of such
         taxes. The obligations of the Trustors-Trustees stipulated in this
         paragraph and the preceding paragraph shall continue in full force and
         effect even after the termination date of this Agreement or the
         resignation of the Trustee; but in any case, for a maximum period of 3
         (three) years calculated from the termination date of this Agreement;

(g)      the Trustee unequivocally informed the parties appearing in this
         Agreement of the legal scope and consequences of the provisions of the
         first three paragraphs of paragraph (b) of Section XIX of Article 106
         (one hundred six) of the Credit Institutions Act, which literally
         state:

         "Art. 106. Credit institutions shall be prohibited from:

         XIX. In the performance of the transactions cited in Section XV of
         Article 46 of this Act:

         (b) Be liable to the trustors, constituents or principals, for default
         by debtor of the loans granted, or of issuers, for securities acquired,
         except if through their culpability, as stipulated in the last part of
         Article 356 of the General Credit Instruments and Transactions Act, or
         to guarantee receipt of income from funds whose investment is entrusted
         to them.

         If at the end of the trust, mandate or commission constituted for the
         granting of loans, they have not been paid by their debtors, the
         institution shall transfer them to the trustor or trustees, as the case
         may be, or to the principal or constituent, refraining from paying the
         amount thereof.

         Any agreement contrary to the stipulations of the preceding two
         paragraphs, shall not have any legal effect whatsoever.

         The preceding paragraphs of this section shall be prominently inserted
         in trust, mandate or commission agreements, in addition to a statement
         from the Trustee to the effect that it unequivocally informed the
         persons from whom it has received assets for investment of the content
         thereof."

         In accordance with amendments to the General Credit Instruments and
         Transactions Act published in the Official Bulletin of May 23, 2000,
         and considering that currently paragraph b, of Section XIX of Article
         106 to which this clause refers has not been adjusted to those
         amendments, for all applicable legal effects,

18



         the mention made to Article 356 of the General Credit Instruments and
         Transactions Act shall be deemed as referring to Article 391 of such
         law.

(h)      the Trustee shall not be liable in any case for the validity, value or
         enforceability of the Option Agreement, the Purchase Rights, the
         Acquired CPO's or any other instrument or right related directly or
         indirectly to this Agreement;

(i)      the Trustors-Trustees agree and acknowledge that the Trustee shall have
         no liability (i) if the Trust's Assets or any part thereof is
         expropriated, nationalized or confiscated; (ii) for a breach of its
         obligations under this Agreement for causes or circumstances beyond its
         control; or (iii) for the legal capacity of the other parties to this
         Agreement to acquire and maintain ownership of the Trust's Assets;

(j)      the Trustee shall not provide, nor shall it be responsible for
         providing, any advice to the Trustors-Trustees with respect to the
         appropriateness or inappropriateness of investing, selling, holding or
         taking or not taking any action or decision with respect to the Option
         Agreement, the Purchase Rights or any other instrument or right
         directly or indirectly related to this Agreement;

(k)      the Trustee (and any other trustee replacing it) may resign its
         position of Trustee at any time through (i) written notification to the
         Technical Committee, and (ii) delivery of the Trust's Assets under the
         terms indicated by the Technical Committee in writing. If the Technical
         Committee does not present written instructions to the Trustee to that
         end within the 60 (sixty) calendar days after the date on which the
         Trustee resigns, the Trustee shall give the Trust's Assets to any
         competent authority without any liability whatsoever, and the Trustee
         shall be released from any and all of its obligations derived from this
         Agreement.

(l)      in case of any dispute between the Trustors-Trustees and/or the
         Technical Committee which results or may result in claims or demands in
         relation to this Agreement, the Trustee shall be authorized (i) to
         withhold the Trust's Assets until it receives a final and definitive
         judgment from a competent court ordering delivery of the Trust's
         Assets; or a written agreement entered into by all the
         Trustors-Trustees instructing the Trustee to distribute the Trust's
         Assets; or (ii) give the Trust's Assets to any competent authority
         without any liability whatsoever. In any case, the Trustee shall be
         released from each and every one of its obligations derived from this
         Agreement;

(m)      the Trustors-Trustees acknowledge that the Trustee forms part of the
         Banamex Financial Group, an integral part of the group internationally
         known as "Citicorp," and therefore is subject to the internal policies
         and rules of Citicorp and its subsidiary Citibank, N.A., regarding the
         administration and performance of trust services (the "Internal
         Policies"), wherefore if any instruction from any of the parties or any
         other act which the Trustee must perform pursuant to this Agreement
         contradicts the Internal

19




         Policies which are in effect on that date, the Trustee shall
         immediately inform the parties of such circumstance to agree as
         appropriate, so as to prevent the Trustee from committing a violation
         of its Internal Policies.

(n)      the Trustors-Trustees and the members of the Technical Committee
         undertake not to use in any manner the name or logotype of the Trustee
         or any of its subsidiaries or related companies, without prior written
         consent from the Trustee.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, having read this Agreement and aware of its legal content

          (b)Additional Agreement for Discharge of Delivery Obligations.

          JPMorgan (the "Designator") may designate any of its Affiliates (the
"Designee") to deliver or take delivery, as the case may be, and otherwise
perform it's obligations to deliver or take delivery, as the case may be, in
respect of this Transaction and the Designee may assume such obligations. Such
designation shall not relieve the Designator of any of its obligations
hereunder.

If the Designee shall have performed the obligations of the Designator
hereunder, then the Designator shall be discharged of its obligations to the
other party to the extent of such performance.

          (c) Dividends: If the Shares shall have gone ex-dividend with respect
to a cash dividend on any date (such date the "Ex-Dividend Date") from, but
excluding, the Trade Date to, and including, the Valuation Date, JPMorgan shall
pay to Counterparty, on the date such dividend is paid or, in the event that
such dividend is paid after the Valuation Date, the Cash Settlement Payment
Date, the net U.S. Dollar amount (after giving effect to any withholding or any
other tax applicable at the time at which such cash dividend is paid or if not
paid to be paid (as of the Ex-Dividend Date)) of such cash dividend paid or to
be paid with respect to one Share where the "Valuation Date" is the Ex-Dividend
Date, multiplied by the Number of Shares, excluding, however, special cash
dividends to the extent that such special cash dividends have an effect on the
price of the Shares on the Exchange, all as calculated and announced by the
Issuer.

          (d) The Counterparty represents and warrants that it nor any of its

specified in Section 7(a) herein, all conversion costs will be borne by the

          (f) No Reliance. Each party represents that (i) it is entering into
the Transaction evidenced hereby as principal (and not as agent or in any other
capacity); (ii) the other party is not acting as a fiduciary for it; (iii) it is
not relying upon any representations except those expressly set forth in the
Agreement or this Confirmation; (iv) it has consulted with its own legal,
regulatory, tax, business, investment, financial, and accounting advisers to the
extent it has deemed necessary, and it has made its own investment, hedging, and
trading decisions based upon its own judgment and upon any advice from such

party; and (v) it is entering into this Transaction with a full understanding of
the terms, conditions and risks thereof and it is capable of and willing to

          (g) Each party agrees and acknowledges that (i) J.P. Morgan Securities
Inc., an affiliate of JPMorgan ("JPMSI"), has acted solely as agent and not as
principal with respect to this Transaction and (ii) JPMSI has no obligation or

respect of this Transaction (including, if applicable, in respect of the
settlement thereof). Each party agrees it will look solely to the other party
(or any guarantor in respect thereof) for performance of such other party's
obligations under this Transaction.

          (h) Share De-listing Event: If at any time during the period from and
including the Trade Date, to and including the Valuation Date, the Shares cease
to be listed on the Exchange for any reason (other than a Merger Event) and are
not immediately re-listed as of the date of such de-listing on another exchange
in the same jurisdiction as the Exchange (the "Successor Exchange"), then
Cancellation and Payment shall apply, and the date of the de-listing shall be
deemed the date of termination for purposes of calculating any payment due from
one party to the other in connection with the cancellation of this Transaction.
If the Shares are immediately re-listed on a Successor Exchange upon their
