CEMEX SELECTS GLOBAL COORDINATORS TO
REFINANCE UPCOMING MATURITIES
Monterrey, Mexico. November 14, 2008
- - CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: CX) announces that it has selected BBVA,
Citi, HSBC, RBS and Banco Santander, S.A. to lead a global effort to i)
negotiate joint bilateral facilities for CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. and CEMEX España
S.A. that will replace existing bilateral facilities with a group of banks, and
ii) amend certain existing syndicated loan facilities.
Completion
of these transactions, including the amendments, may, depending on the facility,
require majority consent from the lenders under the corresponding facility. If
consents are obtained, CEMEX would achieve greater financial flexibility by
lengthening the maturity of the bilateral and syndicated
facilities.

products and reliable service to customers and communities in more than 50
countries throughout the world. CEMEX has a rich history of improving the
well-being of those it serves through its efforts to pursue innovative industry
