2012 guidance

We expect consolidated volumes for cement to grow by 1% and, on a like-to-like basis for the ongoing operations, ready-mix volumes and aggregates volumes to remain flat Cost of energy, on a per-ton-of-cement- produced basis, expected to decline by about 3% Total capital expenditures expected to be US$600 million, , US$465 million in maintenance capex and US$135 million in strategic capex

No major change expected in cash taxes, excluding the payment made in Mexico as filed in March 9, 2012 We expect no significant difference in our 2012 working capital investments versus 2011, adjusting for foreign-exchange fluctuations No significant change expected in cost of debt, including perpetual and convertible notes, given our current financial obligations
