These amounts include 1,209,700.00 ADSs tendered via notice of guaranteed delivery and not yet delivered as of the date of this amendment. All conditions to the Offers having been satisfied, Purchaser accepted for payment, and expects to pay for, all Series B Shares and ADSs properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offers at a purchase price of Ps. 26.50 for each Series B Share and U.S.$ 6.2486 for each ADS (the U.S. dollar equivalent of Ps.132.50 per ADS based on the U.S.$/Ps. exchange rate on the December 7, 2021 as published in the Mexican Federal Official Gazette).
