CEMEX ANNOUNCES OFFERING OF SENIOR SECURED NOTES
MONTERREY, MEXICO, FEBRUARY 26, 2015 CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (CEMEX) (NYSE: CX) announced today its intention to offer senior secured notes in one or more series denominated in Euros (the Euro Notes), subject to market and other conditions. Contemporaneous with the offering of the Euro Notes, CEMEX also intends to offer senior secured notes in one or more series denominated in U.S. Dollars (the U.S. Dollar Notes), subject to market and other conditions.
CEMEX intends to use the net proceeds from the offerings of the Euro Notes and the U.S. Dollar Notes to fund the redemption and/or repurchase of (i) the Floating Rate Senior Secured Notes due 2015 (the September 2015 Floating Rate U.S. Dollar Notes), issued by CEMEX, (ii) the 9.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the January 2018 U.S. Dollar Notes), issued by CEMEX, and/or (iii) the 9.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the May 2020 U.S. Dollar Notes), issued by CEMEX España, S.A., acting through its Luxembourg Branch, and the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of indebtedness under CEMEXs Credit Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2014 (the Credit Agreement), CEMEXs Facilities Agreement, dated as of September 17, 2012, as amended (the Facilities Agreement), and/or other indebtedness, all in accordance with the Credit Agreement and the Facilities Agreement.
The September 2015 Floating Rate U.S. Dollar Notes are redeemable beginning on June 30, 2015 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date; the January 2018 U.S. Dollar Notes became redeemable on January 11, 2015 and may be redeemed at a redemption price of 104.50% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date; and the May 2020 U.S. Dollar Notes are redeemable beginning on May 12, 2015 at a redemption price of 104.625% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date. Pending application of the proceeds from the offerings to redeem and/or repurchase the September 2015 Floating Rate U.S. Dollar Notes and/or the January 2018 U.S. Dollar Notes, CEMEX may use such proceeds to temporarily reduce the revolving tranche of the Credit Agreement.
The Euro Notes and the U.S. Dollar Notes would share in the collateral pledged for the benefit of the lenders under the Credit Agreement, the Facilities Agreement and other secured obligations having the benefit of such collateral, and would be guaranteed by CEMEX México, S.A. de C.V., CEMEX Concretos, S.A. de C.V., Empresas Tolteca de México, S.A. de C.V., New Sunward Holding B.V., CEMEX España, S.A., Cemex Asia B.V., CEMEX Corp., CEMEX Finance LLC, Cemex Egyptian Investments B.V., Cemex Egyptian Investments II B.V., CEMEX France Gestion (S.A.S.), Cemex Research Group AG, Cemex Shipping B.V. and CEMEX UK.
