The undersigned holder, as of the ADS Record Date, of the American Depositary Shares identified on the reverse side hereof acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Depositary’s Notice of Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting and hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Depositary
to cause to be voted at the meeting (and any adjournment or postponement thereof) the Deposited Securities represented by the ADSs in the manner indicated on the reverse side hereof.
Please note that, as set forth in Section 4.10 of the Deposit Agreement, Holders of ADSs will not have the right to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of voting rights in respect of A Shares underlying CPOs held in the CPO Trust (as defined in
the Deposit Agreement). Under the terms of the CPO Trust, A Shares underlying CPOs held by non-Mexican nationals, including all A Shares underlying CPOs represented by ADSs, will be voted by the Trustee (as defined in the Deposit Agreement) according to the majority of all A Shares held by Mexican nationals and B Shares voted at the Meeting. However, Holders of ADSs will have the right to instruct the Depositary to exercise the voting rights of the B Shares underlying the CPOs represented by ADSs. Voting Instructions
may be given only in respect of ADSs representing an integral number of B Shares.
If the Depositary shall not have received Voting Instructions from a Holder of ADSs on or prior to the ADS Voting Instructions Deadline, the Depositary will not instruct the Trustee of the CPO Trust to vote the B Shares underlying the CPOs represented
by such Holder’s ADSs. Please note, however, that the B Shares underlying CPOs represented by ADSs for which no voting instructions have been received will be voted by the Trustee for the CPO Trust in cooperation with, and under the direction of, a technical committee appointed pursuant to the terms of the CPO Trust.
Please indicate on the reverse side hereof how the Deposited Securities are to be voted.
The Voting Instructions must be marked, signed and returned on time in order to be counted.
By signing on the reverse side hereof, the undersigned represents to the Depositary and the Company that the undersigned is duly authorized to give the Voting Instructions contained therein.
