(“New Sunward”), as guarantors, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company, CEMEX, New Sunward, CEMEX México, S.A. de C.V. (“CEMEX México”) and the Trustee heretofore executed and delivered the Indenture, dated as of February 12, 2007 (the “Original Indenture”), with respect to the U.S. $750,000,000 Callable Perpetual Dual-Currency Notes (the “Securities”); and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Original Indenture, the Company issued and the Trustee authenticated and delivered the Securities, which Securities are guaranteed by each of CEMEX, New Sunward and CEMEX México; and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 901 of the Original Indenture, the Company, CEMEX, New Sunward, CEMEX México and the Trustee entered into the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 10, 2009 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), in order to secure the Securities; and

 

WHEREAS, the Company, CEMEX, New Sunward, CEMEX México, the Trustee, Swap 8 Capital (SPV) Limited and C8 Capital (SPV) Limited entered into the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 12, 2010 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture,” and the Original Indenture, as so amended by the First Supplemental Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to amend the Original Indenture for such changes contained in the Second Supplemental Indenture, approved by a majority of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Securities and a majority of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount (by aggregate liquidation preference) of the Debentures;

 

WHEREAS, on November 13, 2019, CEMEX entered into a merger agreement pursuant to which CEMEX and certain of its Subsidiaries organized and existing under the laws of Mexico (the “Mexican Subsidiaries”), including CEMEX México, agreed that each of the Mexican Subsidiaries would, effective as of December 1, 2019, merge with and into CEMEX (each of such mergers, a “Merger,” and, collectively, the “Mergers”), with CEMEX as the surviving entity of each Merger. In accordance with Mexican law, each Merger shall become effective against third parties three months after the date of filing of the corresponding merger deed with the Mexican Public Register of Commerce (Registro Público de Comercio), which for the Merger of CEMEX México with and into CEMEX is expected to be March 9, 2020.
