4. If the Trustor does not object to the sale of the Assets Subject to Enforcement as described in section three above, the Trustee shall proceed to the transfer for valuable consideration of the Assets Subject to Enforcement, in accordance with the procedure described below in this Clause.

The Trustee shall adjudicate the auction, transferring the Asset(s) Subject to Enforcement for which a bid has been received in favor of the bidder who offered (from among the other bidders) the highest bid, which shall in any event be equal to or greater than the amount determined by the Enforcement Valuation (hereinafter the “Highest Bidder”).

4. The Highest Bidder shall pay, in immediately available funds, the balance of the highest bid when transfer of the respective Assets Subject to Enforcement is formalized.

This paragraph number four shall be transcribed verbatim in the Invitation.

5. If the Trustee is unable to sell any Asset Subject to Enforcement in the first private auction, it shall hold a second auction under the same terms as the first, but lowering the price established in the Enforcement Valuation of the respective asset(s) by ten percent. If the Trustee is unable to carry out the sale in the second auction, the price of the assets remaining in the Trust Assets shall be lowered by ten percent at each subsequent private auction until all the Assets Subject to Enforcement are sold, on the understanding, however, that the sale price shall never drop below fifty percent of the original price determined by the Enforcement Valuation. The second or subsequent Invitations shall be effected in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs two, three, and four of this section Roman numeral II.

6. The Trustor shall not have the right to challenge the results of the Enforcement Valuation, on the understanding that the costs and expenses of said valuation shall be covered with the amounts existing in the Trust Assets and, absent that, with the proceeds from the transfer of the Assets Subject to Enforcement, as applicable; on the further understanding that the Trustee shall not be obligated to request any valuation if the funds necessary to pay for it do not exist in or are not contributed to the Trust Assets.

The Trustor undertakes, with its own resources and not with resources from the Trust Assets, to: (i) indemnify the Trustee and hold it, its advisors, trust officers, employees, representatives, and other personnel harmless from any claim, proceeding, action, lawsuit, liability, loss, damage, remedy, or ruling presented, filed, or handed down by any competent person or authority against the Trustee, its advisors, officials, employees, representatives, and other personnel, and (ii) reimburse the Trustee, its shareholders, trust officers, employees, representatives, and other personnel for any cost, expense, or disbursement of any nature (including reasonable and duly documented expenses and fees of legal advisors) they incur, or any harm or loss they may suffer by virtue of any claim, action, proceeding, lawsuit, liability, loss, harm or remedy issued in a final ruling handed down by a competent authority against the Trustee, its shareholders, advisors, officials, trust officers, employees, representatives, and other personnel, determined by a competent judicial or administrative authority and not subject to appeal, in connection with the validity and legality of this Trust, or any actions taken by the Trustee in accordance with written instructions under the terms of this Agreement, as applicable, unless they are actions taken with negligence, fraud, or bad faith by the Trustee, its trust officers, employees, representatives, and other personnel, determined in a final ruling handed down by a competent authority.

In the event that any de facto situation or government action, or legal consequence is established, in a final ruling handed down by a competent authority, that results in financial liability for the Trust and/or the Trust Assets, caused by acts or omissions of the Trustor or by the Trustee in carrying out the Trust’s objectives, including disbursements related to the acts and concepts mentioned in the preceding paragraph (except in cases of the Trustee’s fraud, negligence or bad faith established in a final ruling handed down by a competent authority, or if the Trustee takes some action it is not authorized to take hereunder), the payment in connection with such financial liability shall be the Trustor’s responsibility.

44704

 

In the event of guilty verdicts in any action filed in connection with the Trust Assets or against the Trustee in that capacity, by any third party, the payment of any legal costs and expenses shall be the Trustor’s responsibility, payable with its own funds and not charged against the Trust Assets, and with no liability on the Trustee’s part.

SIXTEEN. Trustee’s Fees and Expenses. The reasonable, documented expenses and fees and any other amount generated in favor of the Trustee shall be the Trustor’s responsibility, in accordance with the terms of the document attached hereto as annex “M.”

SEVENTEEN. Amendments. Except as provided in Clause Thirteen, this Agreement may be amended only by a written instrument entered into by the Trustor, the Primary Beneficiaries, and the Trustee.

EIGHTEEN. Tax Obligations. Each party hereto shall be responsible for complying with its tax obligations under this Trust, in accordance with applicable legislation.

Since the Trustor has rights of reversion on the Trust Assets and there is no transfer of the assets and rights allocated to the Trust Assets for tax purposes under the terms of article fourteen, No. five, section a) of the Tax Code of the Federation, the Trustor shall make all the payments and settlements of taxes in connection with the assets and rights contributed to this Trust, including the Value Added Tax and the Single Rate Tax on Business.

At no time shall the Trustee be responsible for compliance with the tax obligations of the Trustor or the Primary Beneficiaries. Since the purposes of this Trust do not include the conducting of business activities, the Trustee shall be under no obligation to withhold, calculate, or settle any tax or contribution originating from or related to this Agreement or the transactions provided for herein, unless required in accordance with applicable legislation as a consequence of the execution of acts relating to the purposes of the Trust or acts carried out on instructions of the party authorized to issue them in accordance with this Agreement. If applicable, the Trustee shall meet said tax obligations by charging them against the Trust Assets, and if sufficient resources are not available, the Trustor undertakes to increase the Trust Assets with sufficient resources to meet the tax obligations specified in this Clause, and the Trustor and/or the Primary Beneficiaries shall be obligated to reimburse the Trustee for the duly documented expenses it incurs in this respect, depending on the party obligated to pay the respective tax.

The foregoing is on the understanding that the Trustor and/or the Primary Beneficiaries shall provide the Trustee, not later than fifteen Business Days prior to the deadline for compliance with the respective tax obligation, with all the information and/or documentation necessary for compliance therewith, without liability on the part of the Trustee in the event of failure to turn over the information and/or documentation or if it is false or erroneous.

The Trustee shall be responsible for the taxes incurred in connection with the collection of its fees, so the Trustor and the Primary Beneficiaries shall comply, on their own behalf, and acknowledge as their own, with respect to the portion that corresponds to them under law, with all the other tax obligations under this Trust.

The Trustor and/or the Primary Beneficiaries, as appropriate in accordance with the applicable legal provisions, shall provide the Trustee, when it so requests, with all the documents that are necessary or sufficient to demonstrate that their tax obligations in connection with this Trust have been duly and totally complied with.

The transfer of the Trust Assets to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement is not and shall not be considered an assignment under the terms of part five, section a), article 14 of the Tax Code of the Federation of Mexico, since the Trustor has rights of reversion to recover ownership of the Trust Assets in accordance with this Agreement.

NINETEEN. Replacement of Trustee. Successors in Title and Assignees.

The Trustee may waive its duties only in the cases and in accordance with the provisions of article three hundred ninety-one of the General Law of Negotiable Instruments and Credit Operations. If the Trustee fails to fulfill its obligations without just cause, the Credit Agent, acting on the agreement of the Majority of the Lenders, may remove it provided that he or she designates a successor trustee.

In all cases, the successor Trustee must be a Mexican institution with a trusteeship department of recognized national prestige, to the satisfaction of the Majority of the Lenders.

No resignation or removal of the Trustee, as applicable, shall be effective until the new trustee accepts the position and assumes its duties.


- 62 -

Replacement of the Trustee shall be subject to written instructions from the Credit Agent to the Trustee and by means of a successorship agreement signed by the successor trustee and the replaced trustee. Immediately afterward, the Trustee shall transfer to the successor trustee all the assets comprising the Trust Assets (held by it as Trustee), and only then shall the resignation or removal of the Trustee be effective, and the successor trustee shall assume all the Trustee’s rights, authorities, and obligations pursuant to this Agreement, which shall be set forth in said successorship agreement.

This Agreement shall be binding on the parties and their respective permitted assignees and successors in title. The Trustor may not assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties.

TWENTY. Legal Provisions. In accordance with the provisions of No. nineteen of Article one hundred six of the Ley de Instituciones de Crédito [Financial Institutions Law], the Trustee declares that it unequivocally explained to each Trustor the legal effect and consequences of No. 19, which says, verbatim:
