   The increase in capital stock will be paid with charge to Retained Earnings, effected at a theoretical value of Ps0.00277661 per share, plus a premium which will be determined by the Board of Directors so that the resulting value for each Cemex.CPO equals the weighted average of all Cemex.CPO transactions at the closing of operations of the Mexican Stock Exchange (Bolsa Mexicana de Valores) on April 24, 2017.
   The amounts in the capital stock increase and the number of shares and Cemex.CPOs to be issued could vary if convertible notes are converted before the delivery date of the new shares.
   Current shareholders of the Company will be awarded 1 (one) new Cemex.CPO for each 25 (twenty-five) Cemex.CPO that they hold; in case their holding is not represented in Cemex.CPO, they will be awarded 3 (three) new shares, 2 (two) Series A and 1 (one) Series B, for each 75

Of the shares that will be issued, up to 28,500,000 shares, of which up to 19,000,000 will be Series A and up to 9,500,000 will be Series B, would back the conversion of Mandatory Convertible Notes issued in Mexico on December 2009 and up to 229,500,000 shares, of which up to 153,000,000 will be Series A and up to 76,500,000 will be Series B, the conversion of Convertible Notes offered on foreign markets on 2011 and 2015.
   The exercise of the preemptive right to which article 132 of the Mexican General Law of Commercial Companies (Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles) refers will not be applicable as the shares will be subscribed and paid through conversion of the Notes, pursuant to article 210 Bis of the Mexican General Securities and Credit Operations Law (Ley General de Títulos y Operaciones de Crédito).
