(v) to or on behalf of a Holder of the Securities in respect of Taxes that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by such Holder for payment on a date more than 15 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for and notice thereof given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder of such Securities would have been entitled to Additional Amounts in respect of such Taxes on presenting such Securities for payment on any date during such 15-day period; or (vi) any combination of (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) above (the Taxes described in clauses (i) through (vi), for which no Additional Amounts are payable, are hereinafter referred to as "Excluded Taxes"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations on the Company's obligation to pay Additional Amounts set forth in clauses (iii) and (iv) above shall not apply if (a) the provision of information, documentation or other evidence described in such clauses (iii) and (iv) would be materially more onerous, in form, in procedure or in the substance of information disclosed, to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note (taking into account any relevant differences between U.S. and Mexican law, rules, regulations or administrative practice) than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under U.S. tax law, regulations and administrative practice (such as IRS Forms W-8BEN and W-9) or (b) Rule 3.23.8 issued by the Secretaria de Hacienda y Credito Publico (Ministry of Finance and Public Credit), or a substantially similar successor of such rule is in effect, unless the provision of the information, documentation or other evidence described in clauses (iii) and (iv) is expressly required by statute, regulation, rule, ruling or administrative practice in order to apply Rule 3.23.8 (or a substantially similar successor of such rule), the Company cannot obtain such information, documentation or other evidence on its own through reasonable diligence and the Company otherwise would meet the requirements for application of Rule 3.23.8 (or such other successor of such rule). In addition, such clauses (iii) and (iv) shall not be construed to require that a non-Mexican pension or retirement fund or a non-Mexican financial institution or any other Holder register with the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit for the purpose of establishing eligibility for an exemption from or reduction of Mexican withholding tax or to require that a Holder or beneficial owner certify or provide information concerning whether it is or is not a tax-exempt pension or retirement fund. At least 30 days prior to each date on which any payment under or with respect to the Securities is due and payable, if the Company will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such payment (other than Additional Amounts payable on the date of the Indenture or Supplemental Indenture relating to such Securities), the Company will deliver to the relevant Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating the fact that such Additional Amounts will be payable and the amounts so payable and will set forth such other information necessary to enable the relevant Trustee to pay such Additional Amounts to Holders on the payment date. Whenever either in the Indenture or such Supplemental Indenture there is mentioned, in any context, the payment of principal (and premium, if any), Redemption Price, interest or any other amount payable under or with respect to any Securities, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof. Optional Redemption. The Company may redeem any of the Notes (the "Optional Redemption") in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to their maturity, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice of the date for such redemption (the "Redemption Date") mailed by first-class mail to each Holder's registered address, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of such Notes redeemed and (2) the sum of the present values of each remaining scheduled payment of principal and interest thereon (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 40 basis points (the "Make-Whole Amount"), plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to the Redemption Date. "Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated maturity (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date. "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of the selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of the notes. "Independent Investment Banker" means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company. "Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption date (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation or (2) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations. "Reference Treasury Dealer" means Credit Suisse First Boston LLC or its affiliates with are primary United States government securities dealers and two other leading primary United States government securities dealers in New York City reasonably designated by the Company; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary United States government securities dealer in New York City (a "Primary Treasury Dealer"), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer. "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation" means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 pm New York time on the third business day preceding such redemption date. On an after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for redemption (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). On or before the Redemption Date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee money sufficient to pay the Make-Whole Amount and (unless the redemption date shall be an interest payment date) accrued interest to the redemption date on the Notes to be redeemed on such date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem appropriate. The election of the Company to redeem the Notes shall be evidenced by a certificate (a "Make-Whole Redemption Certificate") of an officer of the Company, which certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee. The Company shall, not less than 45 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, notify the Trustee in writing of such Redemption Date and of all other information necessary to the giving by the Trustee of notices of the Optional Redemption. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon the information so furnished by the Company in the Make-Whole Redemption Certificate and shall be under no duty to check the accuracy or completeness thereof. Such notice shall be irrevocable and upon its delivery the Company shall be obligated to make the payment or payments to the Trustee referred to therein at least two Business Days prior to such Redemption Date. Notice of the Optional Redemption shall be given by the Trustee to the holders, in accordance with the provisions of Section 106 of the Original Indenture, upon the mailing by first-class postage prepaid to each holder at the address of such holder as it appears in the Register not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. The notice of Optional Redemption shall state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the Make-Whole Amount; (iii) the sum of all other amounts due to the holders under the Notes and this Indenture; (iv) that on the Redemption Date the Make-Whole Amount will become due and payable upon each such Notes so to be redeemed; and (v) the place or places, including the offices of our Paying Agent in Luxembourg, where such Securities so to be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the Make-Whole Amount. Notice of the Optional Redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Make-Whole Amount therein specified. Upon surrender of any such Notes for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Notes shall be paid by the Paying Agent on behalf of the Company on the Redemption Date; provided that moneys sufficient therefor have been deposited with the Trustee for the holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or in the Notes, if a Make-Whole Redemption Certificate has been delivered to the Trustee and the Company shall have paid to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders (i) the Make-Whole Amount and (ii) all other amounts due to the holders and the Trustee under the Notes and this Indenture, then neither the holders nor the Trustee on their behalf shall any longer be entitled to exercise any of the rights of the holders under the Notes other than the rights of the holders to receive payment of such amounts from the Paying Agent and the occurrence of an Event of Default whether before or after such payment by the Company to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders shall not entitle either the holders or the Trustee on their behalf after such payment to declare the principal of any Notes then outstanding to be due and payable on any date prior to the Redemption Date. The funds paid to the Trustee shall be used to redeem the Securities on the Redemption Date. Repurchase of Securities upon a Change of Control. The Company must commence, within 30 days of the occurrence of a Change of Control, and consummate an Offer to Purchase for all Securities then outstanding, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities on the date of repurchase, plus accrued interest (if any) to the date of purchase. The Company is not required to make an Offer to Purchase following a Change of Control if a third party makes an Offer to Purchase that would be in compliance with the provisions described in this Section if it were made by the Company and such third party purchases (for the consideration referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn. Prior to the mailing of the notice to Holders and publishing such notice to holders in a daily newspaper of general circulation in Luxembourg commencing such Offer to Purchase, but in any event within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company, covenants to (i) repay in full all indebtedness of the Company that would prohibit the repurchase of the Securities pursuant to such Offer to Purchase or (ii) obtain any requisite consents under instruments governing any such indebtedness of the Company to permit the repurchase of the Securities. The Company shall first comply with the covenant in the preceding sentence before it shall be required to repurchase Securities pursuant to this covenant. Withholding Tax Redemption. The Securities are subject to redemption ("Withholding Tax Redemption") at any time (a "Withholding Tax Redemption Date"), as a whole but not in part, at the election of the Company, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to and including the Withholding Tax Redemption Date (the "Withholding Tax Redemption Price") if, as a result of (i) any change in or amendment to the laws, rules or regulations of Mexico, or any political subdivision or taxing authority or other instrumentality thereof or therein, or (ii) any amendment to or change in the rulings or interpretations relating to such laws, rules or regulations made by any legislative body, court or governmental or regulatory agency or authority (including the enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial decision or regulatory determination) of Mexico, or any political subdivision or taxing authority or other instrumentality thereof or therein, or (iii) any official interpretation, application or pronouncement by any legislative body, court or governmental or regulatory agency or authority that provides for a position with respect to such laws, rules or regulations that differs from the theretofore generally accepted position, which amendment or change is enacted, promulgated, issued or announced or which interpretation, application or pronouncement is issued or announced, in each case, after the Closing Date, the Company has become or would become required to pay any Additional Amounts in excess of those attributable to Taxes that are imposed, deducted or withheld at a rate of 10% on or from any payments under the Securities. The election of the Company to redeem the Securities shall be evidenced by a certificate (a "Withholding Tax Redemption Certificate") of a financial officer of the Company, which certificate shall be delivered to the Trustee. The Company shall, not less than 30 days nor more than 45 days prior to the Withholding Tax Redemption Date, notify the Trustee in writing of such Withholding Tax Redemption Date and of all other information necessary to the giving by the Trustee of notices of such Withholding Tax Redemption. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon the information so furnished by the Company in the Withholding Tax Redemption Certificate and shall be under no duty to check the accuracy or completeness thereof. Such notice shall be irrevocable and upon its delivery the Company shall be obligated to make the payment or payments to the Trustee referred to therein at least two Business Days prior to such Withholding Tax Redemption Date. Notice of Withholding Tax Redemption shall be given by the Trustee to the holders, in accordance with the provisions of Section 106 of the Original Indenture, upon the mailing by first-class postage prepaid to each holder at the address of such holder as it appears in the Register not less than 15 days nor more than 30 days prior to the Withholding Tax Redemption Date. The notice of Withholding Tax Redemption shall state: (i) the Withholding Tax Redemption Date; (ii) the Withholding Tax Redemption Price; (iii) the sum of all other amounts due to the holders under the Securities and this Indenture; (iv) that on the Withholding Tax Redemption Date the Withholding Tax Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Security so to be redeemed; and (v) the place or places, including the offices of our Paying Agent in Luxembourg, where such Securities so to be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the Withholding Tax Redemption Price. Notice of Withholding Tax Redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Withholding Tax Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Withholding Tax Redemption Price therein specified. Upon surrender of any such Securities for redemption in accordance with such notice, such Securities shall be paid by the Paying Agent on behalf of the Company on the Withholding Tax Redemption Date; provided that moneys sufficient therefor have been deposited with the Trustee for the holders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture or in the Securities, if a Withholding Tax Redemption Certificate has been delivered to the Trustee and the Company shall have paid to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders (i) the Withholding Tax Redemption Price and (ii) all other amounts due to the holders and the Trustee under the Securities and this Indenture, then neither the holders nor the Trustee on their behalf shall any longer be entitled to exercise any of the rights of the holders under the Securities other than the rights of the holders to receive payment of such amounts from the Paying Agent and the occurrence of an Event of Default whether before or after such payment by the Company to the Trustee for the benefit of the holders shall not entitle either the holders or the Trustee on their behalf after such payment to declare the principal of any Securities then outstanding to be due and payable on any date prior to the Withholding Tax Redemption Date. The funds paid to the Trustee shall be used to redeem the Securities on the Withholding Tax Redemption Date. All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. THE INDENTURE AND THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY PROVISIONS RELATING TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.
