Dear Sirs

Conditional Waiver and Extension Agreement

 

1. Introduction

The undersigned banks and financial institutions (the “Lenders”) have entered into this Letter to document certain temporary conditional waivers and agreements for extensions of repayment dates in relation to certain credit facilities and other financial accommodation made available by them to members of the Group (the “Transaction”). In entering into this Letter, and any discussions and negotiations with CEMEX Parent and CEMEX España, each of the Lenders is acting severally, for its own account as principal, and not as agent or representative of any other creditor or institution.

 

2. Definitions and interpretation

Capitalised terms used in this Letter have the meanings given to them in paragraph 1 (Definitions) of Annex 2 (Definitions and interpretation) and this Letter shall be construed in accordance with paragraph 2 (Construction) of Annex 2 (Definitions and interpretation).

 

3. Conditional Waivers and Extensions

 

3.1 Each Lender agrees:

 

  (a) in relation to each Relevant Existing Facility listed in Part A and Part B of Annex 3 (Exposures), to extend the payment date of any principal sums (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any net balance resulting from the close out of derivatives transactions or any collateral agreements related thereto or any notes issued in connection therewith) which fall due for payment under such Relevant Existing Facility during the Relevant Period (except to the extent falling due pursuant to any Illegality Clause) until the end of the Relevant Period (at which time such amounts shall be payable in accordance with sub paragraph 3.3 below);

 

1


  (b) in relation to each Relevant Existing Facility listed in Part A and Part B of Annex 3 (Exposures), to temporarily waive, for the Relevant Period:

 

  (i) any and all Defaults which may arise under (a) any Insolvency Clause or (b) a Material Adverse Change Clause, in each case as a result of or in connection with the events or circumstances described in the Presentations provided that, to the extent that any such Default arises as a result of discussions with creditors, such discussions are Agreed Discussions;

 

  (ii) any Cross Default;

 

  (iii) any and all Defaults arising under the Notification Clause in respect of the matters referred to in sub paragraphs (i) and (ii) above and (iv) below;

 

  (iv) any and all Defaults arising out of, and any consequential misrepresentation under any Related Representation in such Existing Facility in respect of, the matters referred to in sub paragraphs (i) to (iii) above,

provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no waiver shall be granted under this sub paragraph (b) by any Lender which is not a member of the G12 other than in relation to the facilities made available by it pursuant to the RMC Facilities Agreement and, if such Lender is a Euro/Yen Lender, the Euro/Yen Facilities Agreement; and

 

  (c) where necessary, to amend documents relating to a Relevant Existing Facility to incorporate the waivers and extensions (and any amendments consequent thereto) granted in this Letter.

 

3.2 The provisions of sub paragraph 3.1 above will have effect on the date on which all of the conditions set out in Annex 4 (Conditions Precedent) are satisfied or waived.

 

3.3 The waivers and extensions granted in sub paragraph 3.1 above are temporary waivers to apply only during the Relevant Period. At the end of the Relevant Period, subject to any express agreement in writing to the contrary, such waivers shall automatically terminate and (A) all rights and remedies which would have been available to the Lenders had such waivers not been granted shall become immediately available and (B) the amount of all Extended Payments shall become immediately due and payable and all other amounts outstanding under each Relevant Existing Facility (together with any accrued interest or other amounts payable in respect thereof) shall be payable on demand of those institutions which would be the Required Lenders under such Relevant Existing Facility in relation to exercising acceleration or other rights following an event of default thereunder provided that if:

 

  (a) a voluntary case or proceeding under any Relevant Insolvency Law has been commenced by CEMEX Parent or any Obligor or it has made any filing seeking such relief under any Relevant Insolvency Law, even in the absence of any judicial resolution in respect of such filing;

 

2


  (b) an involuntary proceeding under any Relevant Insolvency Law is commenced against CEMEX Parent or any Obligor or an order for relief or any other similar order under applicable law is granted and such proceeding or order is not dismissed or stayed within 10 business days, or CEMEX Parent or any Obligor consents to the commencement of such an involuntary proceeding;

 

  (c) any stay or prohibition or other circumstances exist under any law which would make it unlawful in any relevant jurisdiction for any Lender to make, or otherwise prohibit the making of, demand in respect of the outstanding amounts under the Relevant Existing Facilities to which any of the Lenders is a party; or

 

  (d) there is a general or specific moratorium, or any similar measure, declared or taken by any governmental authority limiting, restricting or otherwise affecting the ability of CEMEX Parent or any Obligor to perform its obligations under an Existing Facility,

then, instead of being payable on demand, as indicated in (B) above, all such outstanding amounts shall become immediately due and payable (and all commitments under such Existing Facilities shall be cancelled) automatically and without the need for any demand or other claim.

 

3.4 Each of the events set out in Annex 5 (Termination Events) constitutes a Termination Event.

 

3.5 If a Termination Event specified in paragraphs (a) to (l) of Annex 5 (Termination Events) occurs after the Reference Date then the Relevant Period shall, with effect from notification by any Lender to the Co-ordinators and CEMEX Parent, immediately terminate (such notice to be given simultaneously, with a copy to be sent by the Co-ordinators to the Lenders).

 

3.6 If a Termination Event specified in paragraph (m) of Annex 5 (Termination Events) occurs, then on the date falling 7 days after the date of the notice (a “Termination Notice”) given by the Terminating Lender as referred to in that paragraph (a “Termination Date”), the agreements given by that Terminating Lender in sub paragraph 3.1 above shall terminate, and that Terminating Lender shall cease to be bound by the terms of this Letter provided that notwithstanding the delivery of such Termination Notice by the Terminating Lender, the other Lenders shall continue to be bound by this Letter in accordance with, and subject to, its terms but provided further that

 

  (a) following any such Termination Notice being given by a Terminating Lender (an “Initial Terminating Lender”), any other Lender (a “Further Terminating Lender”) may also give a Termination Notice not less than two days prior to the relevant Termination Date applicable to the Initial Terminating Lender; and

 

  (b) such Further Terminating Lender shall cease to be bound by the terms of this Letter on the relevant Termination Date applicable to that Initial Terminating Lender.

4. Undertakings and representations of CEMEX Parent and the Obligors

 

4.1 CEMEX Parent and each of the Obligors undertakes:

 

  (a) to procure that, no later than the date of this Letter, FTI Consulting Canada ULC. has been appointed as financial adviser to the Lenders;

 

  (b) to:

 

  (i) conduct a critical review of its operations in all countries in which it has Subsidiaries, operations and/or assets;

 

  (ii) identify assets and/or shares in any Subsidiary or other companies in any such countries for disposal with a view to reducing borrowing levels of the Group as soon as reasonably practicable using the sale proceeds from such disposals; and

 

  (iii) by no later than Friday 24 April 2009 (or such later date as may be agreed by the parties to this Letter acting reasonably), hold a meeting to which all of the Lenders (and as many other Financial Creditors of the Group as CEMEX Parent may reasonably elect) are invited to present and discuss the results of its analysis with respect to the disposals referred to in sub paragraph (ii) above (with copies of such analysis to be circulated to the Co-ordinators for distribution to the Lenders no later than Monday 20 April 2009 (or such later date as may be agreed by the parties to this Letter acting reasonably));

 

  (c) to examine the possibilities of an increase of share capital of CEMEX Parent or another member of the Group and, if appropriate, to take reasonable steps to prepare for such an increase of share capital at a future date;

 

  (d) to agree with the Lenders, within 3 weeks of the date of this Letter, a set of mutually acceptable milestones and dates for achievement of such milestones;

 

  (e) to explore the availability of financial support, direct and indirect, from the Mexican government; and

 

  (f) to notify the Co-ordinators (with a copy of such notice to be sent by the Co-ordinators to the Lenders) of any Termination Event promptly on becoming aware of its occurrence (unless that Obligor is aware that a notification has already been given by another Obligor) provided that the giving of such a notification shall not itself cause the Relevant Period to terminate and, for the avoidance of doubt, any termination of the Relevant Period shall be made in accordance with paragraphs 3.5 and 3.6 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions).

 

4.2 Each Obligor makes the representations and warranties set out in Annex 6 (Representations and Warranties):

 

  (a) (with the exception of paragraph (e) of Annex 6 (Representations and Warranties)) as of the date of this Letter; and

 

4


  (b) (for the avoidance of doubt, including paragraph (e) of Annex 6 (Representations and Warranties)), as of the first day of each calendar month thereafter during the Relevant Period,

in each case by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing.

 

5. Co-operation with Due Diligence and Lenders’ Financial Adviser

 

5.1 The Lenders are authorised to engage FTI Consulting Canada ULC. as a financial adviser in connection with the Transaction to conduct an independent business review including a strategic analysis (but, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding involvement in the running of CEMEX Parent or any member of the Group). The scope of the engagement of such adviser will be as determined from time to time by the Co-ordinators (in consultation with the Committee Banks), subject to consultation with CEMEX Parent. The initial scope of the engagement of the adviser will be sent to CEMEX Parent once it has been agreed. The Lenders may change the financial adviser, any one or more of the accountants or other firms advising them and the Co-ordinators (in consultation with the Committee Banks) may change the scope of their engagement at any time.

 

5.2 CEMEX Parent shall, and shall ensure that each member of the Group will:

 

  (a) co-operate and work with such financial adviser that may be appointed under sub-paragraph 5.1 above so as to provide them with full access to all information reasonably required to complete their investigation of the financial condition of the Group; and

 

  (b) co-operate, and procure that its legal advisers co-operate, with any legal advisers appointed by the Lenders so as to provide them with full access to all information (excluding legally privileged information) reasonably required in connection with legal due diligence (including, without limitation, granting access to any data rooms).

 

6. Preservation of Rights and Override

Save as expressly referred to in sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions), all terms and conditions of each Existing Facility to which a Lender is a party shall remain in full force and effect and are not modified in any respect by the provisions of this Letter, including paragraph 4 (Undertakings and representations of CEMEX Parent and the Obligors), and each Lender reserves all rights and remedies it may have against any member of the Group except as expressly provided in this Letter. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of any Relevant Existing Facility and the terms of this Letter (other than paragraphs 11 (Governing Law) and 12 (Jurisdiction)), the terms of this Letter will prevail.

 

5


7. Effect of Agreements in this Letter

 

7.1 If a Lender is a party to a Relevant Existing Facility in respect of which the Required Lenders have not yet agreed to each of the matters referred to in sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions), then until such time as such Required Lenders do so agree, the provisions of sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions) shall, subject to the other provisions of this Letter, take effect in relation to such Lender under and in respect of such Relevant Existing Facility as:

 

  (a) an agreement to vote in any deliberations of the creditors under such Relevant Existing Facility, in favour of bringing about the consequences referred to in sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions); and

 

  (b) an agreement not to act in any way inconsistent with bringing about the consequences referred to in sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions) in respect of such Relevant Existing Facility except as may be required by the terms of such Relevant Existing Facility or as may be necessary to protect or preserve its rights under such Relevant Existing Facility in connection with any action decided upon by the Required Lenders,

provided that so long as such Lender acts in accordance with this paragraph 7 (Effect of Agreements in this Letter), such Lender shall have no liability for failing to bring about an effective waiver or extension referred to in sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions) or for failing to prevent lenders generally under such Relevant Existing Facility acting in a manner which is inconsistent with sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions).

 

7.2 For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Letter shall impose on any Lender any obligation to agree to any proposal with respect to Financial Indebtedness owing to it (except for the extensions and waivers pursuant to sub paragraph 3.1of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions)) under any Existing Facility and nothing in this Letter constitutes a commitment by any Lender to provide financing to any member of the Group.

 

8. General

 

8.1 No amendment or waiver of this Letter shall be effective unless it is made in writing and signed by each party.

 

8.2 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Letter, no Lender shall be liable for (i) any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages in connection with its activities related to this Letter (and, in the case of a Lender which is a Co-ordinator, under no circumstances whatsoever will such Lender have any liability under or in respect of this Letter in relation to its activities as a Co-ordinator) or (ii) any action that it takes or the omission of any action by it that results in a Termination Event, unless due to a breach of its obligations under this Letter or the Derivatives Side Letter.

 

6


8.3 Each member of the G12 agrees to take reasonable steps to ensure that all of its facilities and amounts maturing during the Relevant Period are included in Annex 3 (Exposures) and will promptly inform the other members of the G12 of any changes to Annex 3 (Exposures) relating to the Exposures of that G12 member.

 

9. Acceding Lenders and Acceding Obligors

 

9.1 At any time, a Financial Creditor of any member of the Group which is not already a party hereto may become party hereto as a Lender by delivery to CEMEX Parent and the Co-ordinators a Lender Accession Letter specifying details of (and designating as an Existing Facility) each facility to which such Financial Creditor is a party and, in the case of any Existing Facility for which an extension pursuant to sub paragraph 3.1(a) of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions) is to be granted, stating its Exposure thereunder.

 

9.2 Upon delivery of a Lender Accession Letter in accordance with sub paragraph 9.1 above, the Financial Creditor shall become a Lender hereunder, entitled to all of the rights and benefits expressed in favour of, and subject to all of the agreements made by and obligations expressed to be undertaken by, a Lender in this Letter.

 

9.3 The Co-ordinators will, as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of a Lender Accession Letter, update the list of Exposures contained in Annex 3 (Exposures) to include the Exposures of the relevant Financial Creditor which has delivered such Lender Accession Letter, and once amended, circulate the same to CEMEX Parent and the Lenders (and such updated form of Annex 3 (Exposures) shall be deemed to replace Annex 3 (Exposures) of this Letter).

 

9.4 Each of CEMEX Parent and CEMEX España shall use its best endeavours to procure that, as soon as reasonably practicable after:

 

  (a) the date of this Letter, each Subsidiary Obligor; and

 

  (b) the date of any Lender Accession Letter which refers to an Existing Facility in respect of which a member of the Group which is not an Obligor is a borrower or guarantor, such member of the Group,

shall, in each case, become a party to this Letter (and, if such Obligor is a CEMEX Derivatives Party (as defined in the Derivatives Side Letter), the Derivatives Side Letter) as an Acceding Obligor upon delivery to the Lenders of an Obligor Accession Letter together with supporting corporate authorities (including board resolutions or equivalent, powers of attorney (if relevant) and copies of constitutional documents (unless such documents have previously been provided to the Co-ordinators in relation hereto)).

 

10. Fees

 

10.1 In consideration of the agreements given by the Lenders in this Letter, CEMEX Parent and CEMEX España shall pay to each Lender the following fees at the times set out below:

 

  (a) a fee of 0.75% on the amount of its Extended Payment, which shall be payable on the date at which the provisions of sub paragraph 3.1 of paragraph 3 (Conditional Waivers and Extensions) become effective in accordance with sub paragraph 3.2 of that paragraph (or to the extent such Extended Payment relates to a Relevant Existing Facility that consists of one or more derivatives transactions, the later of such date and the date of close out of all such derivatives transactions);

 

7


  (b) a fee which shall be payable on each of 24 April 2009 and 24 May 2009 (or to the extent such Extended Payment relates to a Relevant Existing Facility that consists of one or more derivatives transactions, the later of such date and the date of close out of all such derivatives transactions) in an amount of 0.25% on the amount of its Extended Payment (provided that the Relevant Period has not been terminated prior to such date); and

 

  (c) a fee of 0.50% on the amount of its Extended Payment, which shall be payable on 24 June 2009 (provided that the Relevant Period has not been terminated prior to such date).

 

10.2 The fees referred to in sub-paragraph 10.1 above shall be payable in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds to such accounts as the Lenders may advise and in full, without any set-off, deduction or withholding of any kind.

 

11. Governing Law

This Letter and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it is governed by English law.

 

12. Jurisdiction

 

12.1 The courts of England have non exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Letter (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Letter) or any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Letter (a “Dispute”).

 

12.2 The Obligors agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Obligor will argue to the contrary, and each such Obligor waives any right to which it may be entitled on account of place of residence or domicile.

 

12.3 This paragraph 12 is for the benefit of the Lenders only. As a result, no Lender shall be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law or regulation, the Lenders may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

 

12.4 Each of the parties to this Letter hereby irrevocably waives any and all right to trial by jury in any suit, action or proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to any of the transactions contemplated by this Letter or the actions of any Lender in the negotiation, administration, performance or enforcement thereof.

 

8


12.5 Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law or regulation, each of the Obligors:

 

  (a) shall irrevocably appoint CEMEX UK at its registered address being, as at the date of this Letter, CEMEX House, Coldharbour Lane, Thorpe, Egham, Surrey TW20 8TD and with fax number (+44) 01932 568933, Attn: The Secretary (the “Process Agent”) as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with this Letter and shall procure that the Process Agent confirms its acceptance of that appointment in writing on or before the date of this Letter; and

 

  (b) agrees that failure by the Process Agent to notify the relevant Obligor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned.

 

13. Counterparts

This Letter may be executed in any number of counterparts and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of this Letter.

Please sign below in agreement of this Letter.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We refer to the Conditional Waiver and Extension Agreement (the “CWEA”) dated on or about April 1, 2009 (with effect from March 24, 2009), between CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX Parent”), CEMEX España, S.A. and each of the banks and financial institutions party thereto (the “Lenders”). Each capitalized term that is used but not defined in this letter agreement (this “Agreement”) shall have the meaning assigned to it in the CWEA. The parties hereto hereby agree, with effect from and including March 24, 2009, as follows:

(1) CEMEX Parent shall cause all derivatives positions to which any CEMEX Derivatives Party is a party to be closed out except the Excluded Positions. “CEMEX Derivatives Party” means any party to a derivatives position (1) that is an Obligor, a Subsidiary Obligor or a subsidiary of CEMEX Parent or (2) with respect to which any Obligor, Subsidiary Obligor or subsidiary of CEMEX Parent is a credit support provider; provided that none of C5 Capital (SPV) Limited (“C5”), Swap 5 Capital (SPV) Limited (“Swap 5”), C8 Capital (SPV) Limited (“C8”), Swap 8 Capital (SPV) Limited (“Swap 8”), C10 Capital (SPV) Limited (“C10”), Swap 10 Capital (SPV) Limited (“Swap 10”), C10-EUR Capital (SPV) Limited (“C10-EUR”) or Swap 10 Capital (SPV) Limited (“Swap 10-EUR”) shall be a CEMEX Derivatives Party. “Excluded Position” means each of the positions set forth in Annex 1 hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the extinguishable swaps to which C5, Swap 5, C8, Swap 8, C10, Swap 10, C10-EUR or Swap 10-EUR is a party will be required to be closed out. For the avoidance of doubt, any derivatives positions existing or entered into in the operation of the Group’s ordinary course of business, and not for speculative purposes: (1) with respect to which all parties and credit support providers are members of the Group or (2) which is a Permitted Commodity Contract and any agreement incidental thereto shall not be subject to the provisions of this Agreement. “Permitted Commodity Contract” means any commodity contract or

agreement with respect to which all parties and credit support providers are not financial institutions. For purposes of this definition “commodity” means raw materials and other inputs used in the Group’s operations, energy, water, electric power, electric power capacity, generation capacity, power, heat rate, congestion, diesel fuel, fuel oil, other petroleum-based liquids, coal, commodity transportation, urea, financial transmission rights, emissions and other environmental credits, allowances or offsets, renewable energy credits, Certified Emission Reductions, European Union Allowances, natural gas, nuclear fuel and waste products or by-products thereof or other such tangible or intangible commodity of similar type or description.

(2) CEMEX Parent will administer the unwinding of all derivatives positions to be closed out and will have 10 business days beginning on and including March 24, 2009 (such period, the “Unwind Period”) to complete the unwinding process.

(3) To the extent the mark-to-market value of the derivatives positions (including any unpaid termination amounts) moves against the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party, CEMEX Parent shall cause the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party to continue to post collateral or margin to the applicable counterparty under the terms of the Applicable Contract until all derivatives positions with that counterparty have been closed out. “Applicable Contract” means, with respect to a derivatives position, the agreement governing such derivatives position, as in effect on March 24, 2009, subject to Section 8 of this Agreement.

(4) No Lender party hereto shall be obligated to:

 

  (a) other than in connection with any Excluded Position, return any collateral or margin to the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party or

 

  (b) pay the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party any termination payments,

in each case until all derivatives positions with that Lender (other than any Excluded Positions) have been closed out.

(5) Before all of a Lender’s derivatives positions with a CEMEX Derivatives Party have been closed out, a Lender may accept a CEMEX Note (as defined below) as satisfaction of any payment obligation of a CEMEX Derivatives Party. Upon close-out of all of a Lender’s derivatives positions with a CEMEX Derivatives Party (other than any Excluded Positions), that Lender will:

 

  (a)

calculate a net balance after netting and/or setting off all termination payments under and CEMEX Notes issued with respect to such closed-out derivatives positions (and if such termination payments or

CEMEX Notes are expressed in different currencies, such Lender will, prior to such netting and/or setting off, convert all payments into a single currency in a commercially reasonable manner), and

 

  (b) apply any collateral or margin that Lender is holding against the net amounts owing to that Lender,

in each case, in accordance with the terms of the Applicable Contract (as if the Applicable Contract were terminated as a result of a CEMEX Derivatives Party default); provided that a Lender may apply collateral or margin to CEMEX Notes or termination payments due prior to the close-out of all of a Lender’s derivatives positions with a CEMEX Derivatives Party. If after this setting-off, netting and application, the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party owes that Lender a payment of money, the net amount payable will be deferred in accordance with the CWEA, and the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party shall pay accrued interest monthly on the amount deferred, which obligation shall be evidenced in one or more CEMEX Notes with an aggregate outstanding principal balance equal to such amount deferred (it being understood that the Lender will cooperate with the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party to reduce the outstanding balance of or return any CEMEX Note to the extent that the Lender has an excess outstanding principal amount of CEMEX Notes). “CEMEX Note” means a non-negotiable demand promissory note acceptable to the Lender (it being understood that (i) the Lender will extend the payment date for any principal payment in respect of such promissory note in accordance with the terms of the CWEA, (ii) interest shall accrue on such promissory note at the Lender’s cost of funds plus 4.00% and (iii) if the terminated derivatives positions are the subject of any guarantee, such promissory note shall be the subject of an equivalent guarantee (or a guarantee por aval) to be granted by the same guarantor). If after this setting-off, netting and application, the applicable Lender owes a payment of money or a return of collateral or margin to the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party, then that Lender will make such payment or return to the applicable CEMEX Derivatives Party in accordance with the terms of the Applicable Contract.

(6) Upon close-out of any derivatives position (other than any Excluded Position) between a CEMEX Derivatives Party and a counterparty that is not a Lender, all termination and other payments and deliveries in accordance with the terms of the agreement governing such derivatives position shall be permitted.

(7) With respect to each Excluded Position, margin calls or collateral postings by either party for mark-to-market movements will be permitted as provided in the Applicable Contract. (A) At any time with respect to any Excluded Position and (B) on or prior to the ninth business day after the Reference Date with respect to any other derivatives positions, any making of scheduled payments pursuant to the Applicable Contract will be permitted.

(8) Increases in collateral or margin requirements under any Applicable Contract (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to Excluded Positions) of any CEMEX Derivatives Party as the result of CEMEX Parent ratings downgrades or similar credit-related occurrences will not apply during the Relevant Period.

(9) No collateral or margin shall be posted by any CEMEX Derivatives Party in respect of any derivatives positions entered into by a CEMEX Derivatives Party during the Relevant Period.

(10) CEMEX Parent acknowledges that each Lender is relying on CEMEX Parent’s performance of its obligations set forth in this Agreement. Each Lender that is a party to this Agreement agrees not to deliver any notice pursuant to sub paragraph 3.5 or 3.6 of the CWEA solely as a result of any action taken by CEMEX Parent, any CEMEX Derivatives Party or any Lender that is a Termination Event under the CWEA but is explicitly required under or explicitly permitted by this Agreement.

(11) The provisions of paragraphs 11 and 12 of the CWEA shall apply to this Agreement as if set out in full herein except that (A) references to “this Letter” shall be construed as references to this Agreement and (B) the parties to this Agreement confirm that the appointment of the Process Agent in accordance with the terms of the CWEA will be sufficient for the purposes of this Agreement and that a separate appointment is not required.

(12) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.

(13) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of this Agreement.

Yours truly,
