June 29, 2016

CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX) announced today that it has commenced a tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase up to U.S.$450,000,000 (the “Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount”) of the outstanding 9.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 issued by CEMEX Finance LLC (the “Notes”), subject to possible proration as described in CEMEX’s Offer to Purchase dated June 29, 2016.

The following table summarizes the material pricing terms for the Tender Offer:

Proration of the Notes will be determined in accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer. If CEMEX purchases any Notes in the Tender Offer, Notes tendered at or prior to 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on July 14, 2016 (the “Early Tender Date”), will be accepted for purchase in priority to other Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date. If at the Early Tender Date the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, CEMEX reserves the right, at its option, not to accept any additional Notes tendered by holders of Notes after the Early Tender Date.

If Notes are validly tendered such that the aggregate principal amount tendered exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, CEMEX will accept for purchase only the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount of such Notes, subject to the other conditions in the Offer to Purchase. On any given settlement date, if only a portion of the tendered Notes may be accepted for purchase consistent with the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount, the aggregate principal amount of the Notes accepted for purchase will be prorated based upon the aggregate principal amount of Notes that have been validly tendered and not yet accepted for purchase in the Tender Offer (with appropriate adjustment to avoid purchases of Notes in a principal amount other than U.S.$200,000 and an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof), provided that in no event shall CEMEX be obligated to purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes exceeding the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount. Notes tendered prior to the Early Tender Date will have priority over those Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date.

Holders of Notes that are validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be entitled to receive the applicable Total Consideration, which includes an early tender premium equal to U.S.$30.00 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Notes (the “Early Tender Premium”). Holders who tender Notes after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 27, 2016 and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will be entitled to receive only the applicable Base Consideration per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Notes, which amount is equal to the applicable Total Consideration less the Early Tender Premium. Holders who validly tender their Notes in the Tender Offer and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes from the last interest payment date preceding the applicable settlement date to, but not including, such settlement date. Holders of Notes who tender their Notes before the withdrawal deadline, which is 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on July 14, 2016, unless extended, may not withdraw their Notes after the withdrawal deadline, unless otherwise required by law. Holders who tender their Notes after the withdrawal deadline may not withdraw their Notes, unless otherwise required by law.

If, at the Early Tender Date, the principal amount of the Notes validly tendered exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount (i.e., the Tender Offer is “fully subscribed”), CEMEX has the option not to accept any additional Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date.

CEMEX reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to extend, withdraw or terminate the Tender Offer, increase or decrease the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount or otherwise amend the terms of the Tender Offer.

The Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 27, 2016 and is subject to, and conditioned upon, the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, including, among others, CEMEX having consummated the borrowing of U.S.$450,000,000 under CEMEX’s facilities agreement, dated September 29, 2014 (as amended and restated).
