CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (“CEMEX”) (NYSE: CX) announced today that holders of U.S.$597,153,000 of the outstanding 9.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) issued by CEMEX España, S.A., acting through its Luxembourg Branch, and U.S.$602,580,000 of the outstanding 9.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “2018 Notes” and, together with the 2020 Notes, the “Notes”) issued by CEMEX tendered their Notes at or prior to the early tender deadline of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 7, 2014 (the “Early Tender Date”), pursuant to CEMEX Finance LLC’s (“CEMEX Finance”) previously announced cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase up to U.S.$1,080 million (the “Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount”) of the outstanding Notes. The Tender Offer is being made pursuant to the Offer to Purchase dated March 25, 2014 and the related letter of transmittal.

The following table summarizes the early tender results as of the Early Tender Date and the principal amount of Notes that CEMEX Finance has accepted for purchase, as well as the proration factor for the 2018 Notes:

(1) If, after applying such proration factor, any holder of tendered 2018 Notes would be entitled to a credit or return of a portion of tendered 2018 Notes that is less than the minimum authorized denomination for such 2018 Notes, then all of the 2018 Notes tendered by the holder will be accepted without proration.

Because Notes in excess of the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount have been validly tendered in the Tender Offer on or prior to the Early Tender Date, CEMEX Finance has accepted for purchase all U.S.$597,153,000 of the tendered 2020 Notes and only U.S.$482,847,000 of the tendered 2018 Notes. CEMEX Finance will pay holders of 2018 Notes tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Date on a pro rata basis according to the pro ration procedures described in the Offer to Purchase. The early settlement date on which CEMEX Finance will make payment for such 2020 Notes and 2018 Notes accepted in the Tender Offer is expected to be April 9, 2014 (the “Early Settlement Date”). Holders of Notes who tender after the Early Tender Date will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase. Any tendered Notes that are not accepted for purchase will be returned or credited without expense to the holder’s account.

Holders of Notes that validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes have been accepted for purchase (subject to application of the proration factor in the case of the 2018 Notes) are entitled to receive U.S.$1,102.50 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2020 Notes and U.S$1,092.50 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2018 Notes accepted for purchase, which includes, in each case, an early tender payment equal to U.S.$30 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Notes accepted for purchase. Holders who validly tendered on or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes have been accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on their accepted Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date. The total cash payment to purchase the accepted Notes will be approximately U.S.$1.22 billion. Notes that have been validly tendered cannot be withdrawn, except as may be required by applicable law.

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC acted as Dealer Managers for the Tender Offer. The Information Agent and Tender Agent for the Tender Offer was D.F. King & Co., Inc.
