(1) Per U.S.$1,000 principal amount.
(2) Since the amount of validly tendered 2021 Notes and validly tendered 2019 Notes exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount,
CEMEX will not purchase any tendered 2022 Notes in accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer and no such 2022 Notes will be
accepted in the Tender Offer.
Since Notes in excess of the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount have been validly tendered in the Tender Offer on or prior to the
Early Tender Date, CEMEX has accepted for purchase U.S.$475,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the tendered Notes, including all
U.S.$385,061,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes, U.S.$89,939,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes and
none of the 2022 Notes, and will pay holders of the 2019 Notes on a pro rata basis according to the proration procedures described
in the Offer to Purchase. The early settlement date on which CEMEX will make payment for such 2021 Notes and 2019 Notes accepted in
the Tender Offer is expected to be March 2, 2017 (the “Early Settlement Date”). Holders of Notes who tender after the Early Tender
Date will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase. Any tendered Notes that are not accepted for purchase will be returned
or credited without expense to the holder’s account.
Holders of Notes that validly tendered their Notes on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes have been accepted for
purchase (subject to the application of the proration factor) are entitled to receive U.S.$1,081.25 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount
of 2021 Notes and U.S.$1,067.50 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes accepted for purchase, which includes, in each case,
an early tender premium equal to U.S.$30.00 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase. Holders of Notes who
validly tendered their Notes on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes have been accepted for purchase will also receive
accrued and unpaid interest on their accepted Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the Early Settlement
Date. The total cash payment to purchase the accepted Notes on the Early Settlement Date will be approximately U.S.$517,333,395.
Notes that have been validly tendered cannot be withdrawn, except as may be required by applicable law. The Tender Offer will
expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on March 13, 2017.
