The minimum fixed portion of the capital stock, which is not subject to withdrawal, amounts to MXN 238,749,401.98 (two hundred thirty-eight million seven hundred forty- nine thousand four hundred one pesos and ninety-eight cents), divided into an aggregate of 63,220,260,000 (sixty-three billion two hundred twenty million two hundred sixty thousand) no-par value Series “B” registered common shares, of which are fully paid and non-assessable.

The variable portion of the capital stock is for an unlimited amount and shall be divided into any such number of no-par value registered common shares as may be determined at the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting at which the issuance of such shares is approved.

The Company shall be subject to the provisions contained in the Securities Market Law (Ley del Mercado de Valores) as with respect to all matters pertaining to its capital stock and shares.

ARTICLE SEVEN.- The Company may acquire shares of its own stock or instruments representing such shares irrespective of the prohibition contained in the first paragraph of Article 134 (one hundred thirty- four) of the General Law on Companies (Ley General de Sociedades Mercantiles), provided that all of the requirements set forth in the Securities Market Law and other applicable statutes are met at the time of the relevant transaction.

The acquisition and disposition of shares or negotiable instruments representing shares of the Company’s stock shall be carried out in accordance with the applicable statutes.

Page 2 of 19

Any shares or negotiable instruments representing shares of the Company’s own stock being held by the Company, or, as the case may be, any unsubscribed shares being held thereby in its treasury, may be sold to the public without need for any resolution of the shareholders at a shareholders’ meeting or of the Board of Directors, irrespective of the provisions contained in Article 132 (one hundred thirty-two) of the General Law on Companies.

The Company shall keep a stock ledger and shall regard those who are registered therein as the owners of its shares. The Company will record in such ledger, at the request of any interested party and upon receipt of the requisite evidence, any transfer of shares that is carried out in accordance with these bylaws and the applicable statutes. The stock ledger may be kept at one of the securities depository institutions regulated by the Securities Market Law, which shall make the relevant entry in the terms and for the purposes set forth in articles 128 (one hundred twenty-eight) and 129 (one hundred twenty-nine) of the General Law on Companies, which entry shall be supplemented with the certificates issued by the members of the relevant securities depository.

Pursuant to Article 48 (forty-eight) of the Securities Market Law and Article 130 (one hundred thirty) of the General Law on Companies, as a deterrent against any acquisition of shares that would result in the ability of any shareholder or third party to control the Company directly or indirectly within the meaning of the Securities Market Law, it is hereby stipulated that any acquisition of shares of stock issued by the Company or securities or other negotiable instruments issued in respect of or rights to such shares, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions over any period of time whatsoever, or by a group of related shareholders acting in concert, shall require prior approval by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, if the number of shares or the rights to be acquired account for ten percent (10%) or more of the voting shares of stock issued by the Company.

To such effect, the person or group of persons intending to acquire ten percent (10%) or more of the voting shares of stock issued by the Company must request the aforementioned approval in writing through the Chairman and the Secretary of the Board of Directors of the Company. Such request shall include, at least, the following information: (i) a declaration of acceptance of and submission to the terms of the bylaws of the Company and to the discretionary authorization process described in the foregoing Article; (ii) the number and class of shares issued by the Company then held by the person or group that intends to carry out the acquisition, and the series to which such shares belong; (iii) the number and class of shares to be acquired and the series to which they belong; (iv) the identity and nationality of each prospective transferee; and (v) a statement as to whether such person or group intends to acquire a significant influence over or the control of the Company, as such terms are defined in the Securities Market Law. The Board of Directors may request any additional information it may deem necessary or advisable for purposes of making a decision with respect thereto.

If the Board of Directors declines to grant the approval required by the foregoing Article, it shall designate one (1) or more purchasers for the shares, who shall be required to pay to the relevant party the price reported for such shares by the stock exchange. If the shares are not registered at the National Securities Registry, the purchase price shall be determined in accordance with Article 130 (one hundred thirty) of the General Law on Companies.

The Board of Directors must issue its decision no later than three (3) months after the date of receipt of the request for approval or, as the case may be, the date of receipt of the additional information it requested, taking into consideration (i) any such criteria as it may deem in the best interest of the Company, its operations and the long- term prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries; (ii) that the economic benefits derived from the enforcement of the foregoing Article may not be exclusive of any one (1) or more shareholders other than the person who intends to acquire the control of the Company; and (iii) that the acquisition of the control of the Company may not be precluded in absolute terms.

The Company may not take any action intended to preclude the exercise of the financial rights of the transferee or which is violation of the provisions of the Securities Market Law relating to mandatory purchase offers. Notwithstanding the above, any person who may have acquired shares of stock of the Company or securities or other negotiable instruments, or rights representing such shares, in violation of the provisions contained in the preceding paragraph, shall be required to pay to the Company liquidated damages in an amount equal to the aggregate price of the shares or securities or other negotiable instruments held by such person directly or indirectly or which were the subject matter of the illicit transaction. If no consideration shall have been involved in the transactions that may have resulted in the acquisition of shares, securities or other negotiable instruments, or rights representing in excess of ten percent (10%) of the capital stock and absent the approval required by this Article, the amount of liquidated damages shall be equal to the market value of such shares, securities or other negotiable instruments, or rights.

Page 3 of 19

For as long as the shares of stock issued by the Company are registered at the National Securities Registry, any transaction executed through the stock exchange shall be subject to the provisions contained in the Securities Market Law and the rules issued thereunder by the National Banking and Securities Commission. For the avoidance of doubt, it is hereby stipulated that transfers of Company shares that do not result in the acquisition of an ownership interest equal to or greater than ten percent (10%) of the voting shares issued by the Company, by any one person or group of persons acting in concert and which are carried out through a stock exchange, shall not require of prior approval by the Board of Directors of the Company. Any person or group of persons who shall have acquired or attained a material ownership interest in the Company, without having first conducted a public purchase offer in accordance with the Securities Market Law, shall not be entitled to exercise the corporate rights conferred by the relevant voting securities and the Company shall be authorized to refuse to register such shares in the ledger referred to in articles 128 (one hundred twenty-eight) and 129 (one hundred twenty-nine) of the General Law on Companies.

Consequently, the persons intending to make an acquisition which requires the conduction of a public purchase offer in accordance with the Securities Market Law must secure the approval of such transaction by the Board of Directors prior to the commencement of the offering period. In any event, the transferees must at all times disclose the existence of the foregoing procedure for securing the prior approval of the Board of Directors in connection with any acquisition of shares representing ten percent (10%) or more of the capital stock of the Company.

In addition, any change of control of the Company shall require prior written approval by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors who were appointed to their positions prior to the occurrence of the relevant change of control event, by means of a resolution adopted at a board meeting called for that specific purpose in accordance with these bylaws.

The provisions contained in the foregoing Article are in addition to and not in lieu of any notice, notification and/or approval required to be given, made or obtained by the prospective transferees pursuant to the applicable statutes.

The Board of Directors may determine in its sole discretion that certain persons are acting as a group or in concert for purposes of this Article.

Upon any such determination by the Board of Directors, the relevant persons shall be considered as one and the same for purposes of this Article.

For as long as the shares of stock issued by the Company are registered at the National Securities Registry, the legal persons controlled by the Company may not acquire, directly or indirectly, any shares of stock issued by the Company or negotiable instruments representing such shares, except for acquisitions thereof (i) through investment funds, (ii) by companies in which the Company holds a majority of the shares of stock, in connection with stock option or stock purchase plans established or designed for the benefit of officers or employees of such companies or of the Company, subject to the limitations and other requirements set forth in the Securities Market Law and the general rules issued by the National Banking and Securities Commission, or (iii) as otherwise permitted by the Securities Market Law and other applicable statutes.

Pursuant to the Securities Market Law and the general rules issued by the National Banking and Securities Commission, for as long as the shares of stock of the Company are registered at the National Securities Registry, in the event of cancellation of such registration at the request of the Company or pursuant to a resolution adopted by the National Banking and Securities Commission in accordance with the applicable statutes the Company shall be required to conduct a public purchase offer in accordance with Article 108 (one hundred eight) of the Securities Market Law, which shall be directed solely to the holders of shares or negotiable instruments representing shares, excluding the members of the controlling group of shareholders, as of (i) the date of relevant notice from the National Banking and Securities Commission, if the registration is canceled by resolution thereof, or (ii) the date of the resolution adopted at the extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting, if the registration is canceled voluntarily.

If upon consummation of the public purchase offer but prior to the cancellation of the registration of the shares of stock of the Company or other securities issued in respect thereof at the National Securities Registry, the Company has yet to acquire one hundred percent (100%) of its paid-in capital, the Company shall be required to transfer to a trust, for a period of time lasting no less than six (6) months from the date of cancellation of such registration, an amount sufficient to purchase, at a price equal to the offer price, all of the shares that were not tendered by their holders in connection with the public purchase offer.

Such purchase offer shall be carried out in accordance with the applicable statutes. In any event, the voluntary cancellation of the registration of the Company’s shares of stock at the National Securities Registry shall be subject, in addition to the requirements set forth in the Securities Market Law and other applicable statutes, to (i) its prior approval by the National Banking and Securities Commission and (ii) its approval by the affirmative vote of no less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the outstanding capital at an extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting.

The variable capital of the Company may be increased or decreased without need for any amendment of these bylaws, provided that the relevant increase or decrease is approved at the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting or by any other means permitted by the applicable statutes and is formalized as described hereinabove, and without need for any registration at the Public Registry of Commerce for the Company’s domicile.

The formalities referred to hereinabove as with respect to the increase or decrease of the capital of the Company need not be observed in the event of an increase or decrease under Article 56 (fifty-six) of the Securities Market Law.

ARTICLE TEN.- No capital increase shall be authorized unless and until all of the shares that were issued in connection with the immediately preceding increase have been fully subscribed and paid for, without prejudice of the provisions governing the issuance of unsubscribed shares, except where, pursuant to a resolution adopted at the shareholders’ meeting at which the issuance of such shares was approved, such shares are to be used to satisfy obligations incurred by the Company with the consent of its shareholders. Concurrent with the adoption of the resolutions relating to a capital increase, the shareholders, at the shareholders’ meeting at which such increase is approved, shall determine the terms and conditions for such increase, the amount of the capital contribution per share that shall be due and payable by the subscribers of the relevant shares and the amount of the premium per share, if any, that shall be due and payable by such subscribers in addition to their capital contributions.

Pursuant to Article 132 (one hundred thirty-two) of the General Law on Companies and to the foregoing Article, the shareholders shall have a right of first refusal to subscribe the new shares issued in connection with a capital increase on a pro rata basis according to the number of shares held by each. This right must be exercised within fifteen (15) calendar days from the day immediately following the publication of the resolution adopted at the shareholders’ meeting with respect to the capital increase in the electronic bulletin board established by the Ministry of the Economy (Secretaría de Economía) (or any successor thereto). Any shares that remain unsubscribed upon the expiration of the period of time available to the shareholders for the exercise of their rights of first refusal shall be offered to third parties for their subscription and payment in the terms and within the periods of time stipulated by the shareholders at the shareholders’ meeting at which the capital increase was approved or, absent such stipulation, by the Board of Directors or the special representatives appointed for that purpose at such shareholders’ meeting, provided that such terms may be no more favorable than those which were offered to the shareholders. This right of first refusal will not be available in connection with:

(a) capital increases resulting from the merger of one or more companies into the Company;

(b) the conversion of convertible debentures;

Page 5 of 19

The Company may only issue shares that confer upon their holders rights which are not limited or restricted, which shall be referred to as common shares. Notwithstanding the above, the National Banking and Securities Commission may authorize the issuance of shares other than common shares in accordance with Article 54 (fifty-four) of the Securities Market Law. All capital decreases shall be governed by Article 135 (one hundred thirty-five) of the General Law on Companies and other related articles thereof; and capital decreases affecting the fixed portion shall be subject, in addition, to Article 9 (nine) of such law.

The capital may be decreased to (i) offset losses, (ii) issue refunds to the shareholders or release the latter from their outstanding payment obligations, (iii) redeem shares with profits, or (iv) cancel any shares that were acquired by the Company on a temporary basis but which have not been resold to the public. The capital may also be decreased in any other manner permitted by law.

Any capital decrease for the purpose of offsetting losses must be carried out in accordance with the terms stipulated by the shareholders at the shareholders’ meeting at which the relevant decrease is approved and may be allocated to both the fixed and variable portions of the capital on a pro rata basis without need for the cancellation of any shares, which are no-par value shares.

Any capital decrease in connection with the redemption of shares with distributable profits must be carried out in accordance with Article 136 (one hundred thirty-six) of the General Law on Companies and with the procedure stipulated by the shareholders at the extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting at which the relevant redemption is approved.

Any proceeds from the redemption of shares which are not claimed by the owners of such shares within one (1) year from their receipt of notice thereof shall be forfeited to the Company.

The Company may redeem any shares with its distributable profits without decreasing its capital. At the extraordinary general shareholders’ meeting at which the redemption is approved, the shareholders shall abide, in addition to the relevant rules set forth in Article 136 (one hundred thirty-six) of the General Law on Companies, by the following specific rules:

1.- The shareholders may resolve that the redemption of shares be made extensive to all of the shareholders on a pro rata basis so that, upon such redemption, each shareholder shall continue to hold the same percentage of the aggregate capital stock that was held by such shareholder prior to the redemption, without need for the cancellation of any stock certificates since the shares of stock are no-par value shares, and without need to hold a lottery to select the shares that will be redeemed, irrespective of whether the shareholders have stipulated a specific redemption amount.

2.- If the shareholders determine that the shares to be redeemed will be repurchased through the stock exchange, the shareholders or, as the case may be, the Board of Directors, shall establish the procedure for the withdrawal of such shares and the number of shares that will be redeemed, and shall appoint an intermediary or a redemption agent, taking into consideration the requirements set forth in the applicable statutes.

3.- Except as provided in sub-paragraphs 1 (one) and 2 (two) above, if the shareholders approve a specific redemption price (i) the shares to be redeemed shall be drawn by lottery before a notary public or public official, (ii) the stock certificates representing the redeemed shares shall be canceled; and (iii) the redemption shall be otherwise subject to the relevant provisions of Article 136 (one hundred thirty-six) of the General Law on Companies.

ARTICLE TWELVE.- Each share shall be indivisible and, accordingly, where a single share is owned by two (2) or more persons such persons shall be required to appoint a joint representative in accordance with Article 122 (one hundred twenty-two) of the General Law on Companies. Absent the appointment of a joint representative, the Company will regard as such the person whose name appears first in the stock ledger kept thereby in accordance with Article 128 (one hundred twenty-eight) of such law.

ARTICLE THIRTEEN.- All transfers of shares shall be deemed unconditional and without reservation against the Company and, accordingly, any person who acquires one (1) or more shares shall assume all of the rights and obligations of the previous holder thereof to the Company.

As prescribed by articles 24 (twenty-four) and 26 (twenty-six) of the Securities Market Law, the Board of Directors of the Company shall be comprised of a minimum of 5 (five) and a maximum of 21 (twenty-one) directors at the discretion of the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting at which they are appointed, of whom at least twenty-five percent (25%) must be independent. Such shareholders’ meeting may appoint up to an identical number of alternates and shall have full discretionary power to establish the rules pursuant to which the alternates shall act in the directors’ stead; provided, that (i) the alternates of the independent directors must also be independent, and (ii) the alternates appointed by the minority shareholders may only act in the stead of the directors appointed by such shareholders.

Any individual meeting the criteria set forth to such effect in the Securities Market Law and other applicable statutes shall be eligible to serve as a member of the Board of Directors. The Company and the members of the Board of Directors shall be required to comply with the provisions of the Securities Market Law relating to the composition, powers and operation of the Board of Directors, including, without limitation, those relating to the duties of care and loyalty, the rules for the appointment and qualification of the independent directors, and the commencement of liability actions against the directors.

At any given time, a majority of the directors and their alternates must be Mexican nationals.

The independent directors and, as the case may be, their alternates, shall be selected on the basis of their experience, skill and professional reputation, taking into consideration, in addition, whether their circumstances will allow them to perform their duties without incurring in conflicts of interest or being subordinated to any personal, patrimonial or economic interest.

The independent status of the directors shall be established at the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting at which the members of the Board of Directors are appointed or confirmed or, as the case may be, at the meeting at which notice of their appointment or ratification is given. Any independent director who may cease to have such status during the term to which he was appointed shall be required to give notice thereof to the Board of Directors no later than at its next meeting.

No individual meeting the exclusive criteria set forth in Article 24 (twenty-four) of the Securities Market Law shall be eligible for Board membership under any circumstance whatsoever. No individual meeting the exclusive criteria set forth in Article 26 (twenty-six) of the aforementioned law shall be eligible for service as an independent director.

Holders of voting shares, including any limited or restricted voting shares, representing, individually or in the aggregate, ten percent (10%) of the capital stock, shall be entitled to appoint one (1) member of the Board of Directors and his alternate, and to revoke their appointments, at the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting. Such appointments may be revoked by the remaining shareholders concurrent with the revocation of the appointments of all of the other directors, in which case the substituted individuals shall remain ineligible for appointment to the same positions for the 12 (twelve) month period immediately following the date of such revocation. The aforementioned right must be exercised by written notice to the Chairman of the Board of Directors or the Secretary, no later than two business days prior to the scheduled date for the ordinary shareholders’ meeting at which the members of the Board of Directors are to be appointed, ratified or removed.

If one (1) of more shareholders appoint a director through their exercise of the right set forth in the preceding paragraph, the remaining directors shall be appointed by a simple majority of votes, without taking into account the votes of the minority shareholders who have elected to exercise their voting rights in connection with the aforementioned appointment.

Notwithstanding the obligation of the Company to abide by the principles set forth in this Article, for as long as this Article remains in effect the lack of observance of the provisions contained herein, for any reason whatsoever, shall not give rise to any right of a third party to challenge the validity of any legal transaction, contract, arrangement, agreement or other act executed by the Company through its Board of Directors or any other intermediate corporate body, delegate, legal representative or attorney-in-fact, and the observance of such provisions shall not be deemed to constitute a condition precedent to the validity or existence of any such act.

ARTICLE TWENTY-ONE.-The directors and their alternates, the members of the committees responsible for the performance of the audit and corporate practices functions, the executive officers and the managers shall not be required to provide security for the satisfaction of the liabilities they may incur in connection with the performance of their duties, unless otherwise determined at the shareholders’ meeting at which they are appointed. In such event, the relevant collateral shall not be returned to such individuals but until after the accounting information for their period of service has been duly approved at a general shareholders’ meeting.

Pursuant to the Securities Market Law, the indemnification payable by the members and the Secretary and Alternate Secretary of the Board of Directors to the Company or the legal persons under its control or in which it exerts a significant influence, for the damages or losses incurred by them as a result of the actions taken or the decisions made by such individuals acting through the Board of Directors, or which the Board of Directors shall have failed to take or make due to its inability to convene, or, generally, as a result of a breach of such individuals’ duty of care, shall in no event exceed, in one or more instances and in any given year, from an amount equal to the aggregate net compensation paid to such members and officers of the Board of Directors by the Company or, as the case may be, the legal persons under its control or in which it exerts a significant influence, during the 12 (twelve) month period immediately preceding the relevant breach; provided, that the indemnification limitation set forth in this paragraph shall not apply in the event of willful misconduct, bad faith or acts which are unlawful under the Securities Market Law or other applicable laws.

The Company shall indemnify the members and the Secretary and Alternate Secretary of the Board of Directors and its executive officers, secretary and alternate secretary against and shall hold them free and harmless from any liability to third parties in which they may incur in connection with the due performance of their duties and shall cover the amount of any indemnification for damages due and payable to such third parties, except in the event of willful misconduct, bad faith or acts which are unlawful under the Securities Market Law or other laws.

In performing their duties, the members of the Board of Directors shall aim to create value for the benefit of the Company without favoring any shareholder or group of shareholders. To such effect, they shall be required to act in a diligent manner, make thoughtful decisions and perform all of the other duties required of them by the Securities Market Law and these bylaws.

Holders of voting shares, including any limited or restricted voting shares, representing, individually or in the aggregate, five percent (5%) of the capital stock, shall be entitled to bring liability action under Article 38 (thirty-eight) of the Securities Market Law for the actions described in Chapter Two of Title Two of such law. In any event, any such action must be brought in respect of the aggregate amount of the liabilities owed to the Company or the legal persons under its control or in which it exerts a significant influence, and not solely in respect of the personal stake of the plaintiff or plaintiffs.

ARTICLE TWENTY-TWO.-The Board of Directors, at its first meeting following the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting at which its members were appointed, or at any other meeting of such body, shall appoint a Chairman and a Secretary and may appoint a Co-Chairman, one or more Vice Chairmen, a Treasurer, an Alternate Treasurer, an Alternate Secretary and any such other officers as it may deem necessary or advisable, including in an honorary capacity or for life; provided, that the Chairman and, as the case may be, the Co-Chairman, must be members of the Board of Directors, and that the Secretary, the Treasurer, the Alternate Secretary and the Alternate Treasurer shall not be members thereof.

The Company, the Board of Directors and each of the officers appointed thereby, and the committees providing assistance to the Board of Directors, shall be required to comply with the provisions of the Securities Market Law relating to the management of a publicly traded limited liability company.

The officers of the Board of Directors shall perform the duties associated with their respective positions. Any such officer may be removed without cause by resolution of the Board of Directors. In the event of the Chairman’s temporary or permanent absence, the Co-Chairman, if any, or one (1) of the Vice Chairmen, indistinctly, if any, shall act in his stead, without prejudice of the ability of the Board of Directors to appoint at any time from among its members a director to act in the Chairman’s stead on either a temporary or permanent basis. In the event of the permanent absence of the Co-Chairman, if one has been appointed, he shall be replaced by any such individual as the Board of Directors may resolve to appoint in due course to such office.

In the event of the Treasurer’s or the Secretary’s temporary or permanent absence, the Alternate Treasurer or the Alternate Secretary, respectively, or, absent either, the individual appointed to such effect by the Board of Directors, shall act in his stead. The Board of Directors may also establish special committees or commissions which are in addition to those required by the Securities Market Law and these bylaws, and determine their powers and duties and the compensations payable to their members, if any.

None of the directors or their alternates, the Chairman or Co-Chairman of the Board, the Vice Chairmen, the Treasurer, the Alternate Treasurer, the Secretary, the Alternate Secretary or any other officer of the Board of Directors, if any, shall be authorized, solely by reason of his appointment, to make confessions on behalf of the Company and, accordingly, shall be precluded from offering any such evidence at any trial or in connection with any proceedings to which the Company is a party. The aforementioned authority shall be reserved to the individuals who may have been expressly granted a power of attorney for that purpose. Any given person may hold more than one office; provided, that the offices of Chairman of the Board and chair of the committees responsible for the performance of the audit and corporate practices functions may in no event be held by one and the same individual.

Notwithstanding the expiration of the term to which they were appointed, or their resignation, the directors shall remain in office for a period of up to 30 (thirty) calendar days if their successors have not been appointed or taken office, without regard to Article 154 (one hundred fifty-four) of the General Law on Companies.

The Board of Directors may appoint acting directors without need for any action by the shareholders’ meeting in the events set forth in the preceding paragraph or in the event described in Article 155 (one hundred fifty-five) of the General Law on Companies. The shareholders, at the first shareholders’ meeting following the occurrence of any such event, may ratify such appointments or appoint substitute directors, subject to the rights of the minority shareholders under section I (one) of Article 50 (fifty) of the Securities Market Law.

Directors may be reelected and shall be compensated as the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting may determine.

For purposes of the Securities Market Law, no Board member who may have engaged, directly or indirectly, in any activity in which the Company or the legal persons under its control or over which it has significant influence is engaged in the ordinary course of its business, shall be deemed to have taken advantage of or exploited a business opportunity belonging to the Company or the legal persons under its control or over which it has significant influence, taking into consideration that all of the members of the Board of Directors shall have been elected at an ordinary general shareholders’ meeting and shall for all legal purposes be deemed to have been granted any requisite waiver by the Company and its governing bodies.

ARTICLE TWENTY-THREE.- The Board of Directors shall have the rights and obligations set forth in the applicable statutes and these bylaws, and shall have the broadest powers and authority to adopt any such resolutions and perform any such acts as it may deem necessary or advisable in furtherance of the corporate purpose of the Company, irrespective of their nature, excluding the powers and authority that are expressly reserved by law or these bylaws to the shareholders’ meeting.
