<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In December 2016, CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. received subpoenas from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) seeking information to
determine whether there have been any violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act stemming from the new cement plant being built by CEMEX Colombia S.A. (&#147;CEMEX Colombia&#148;) in the department of Antioquia in the municipality of
Maceo, Colombia (the &#147;Maceo Project&#148;). These subpoenas do not mean that the SEC has concluded that CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. or any of its affiliates violated the law. As discussed in &#147;Item 4&#151;Information on the
Company&#151;Regulatory Matters and Legal Proceedings&#151;Maceo, Colombia&#151;Legal Proceedings in Colombia&#148; in CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V.&#146;s annual report on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">20-F</FONT> for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2016, internal audits and investigations by CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. and CEMEX Latam Holdings, S.A. (&#147;CEMEX Latam&#148;) had raised questions about payments relating to the Maceo Project. The payments made to the <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-governmental</FONT> individual representing CI Calizas y Minerales S.A. in connection with the Maceo Project did not adhere to CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V.&#146;s and CEMEX Latam&#146;s internal controls. As announced on
September&nbsp;23, 2016, the CEMEX Latam and CEMEX Colombia officers responsible for the implementation and execution of the above referenced payments were terminated and the then Chief Executive Officer of CEMEX Latam resigned. CEMEX, S.A.B. de
C.V. has been cooperating with the SEC and the Colombian Attorney General&#146;s Office (the &#147;Attorney General&#146;s Office&#148;) and intends to continue cooperating fully with the SEC and the Attorney General&#146;s Office. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. previously disclosed that it was possible that the United States Department of Justice (&#147;DOJ&#148;) and other investigatory
entities in other jurisdictions could also open investigations into this matter.&nbsp;In this regard, on March&nbsp;12, 2018, the DOJ issued a grand jury subpoena to CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. relating to its operations in Colombia and other
jurisdictions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. intends to cooperate fully with the SEC, DOJ, and any other investigatory entity. As of March&nbsp;14, 2018, CEMEX,
S.A.B. de C.V. is unable to predict the duration, scope, or outcome of either the SEC investigation or the DOJ investigation, or any other investigation that may arise, or, because of the current status of the SEC investigation and the preliminary
nature of the DOJ investigation, the potential sanctions which could be borne by CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V., or if such sanctions, if any, would have a material adverse impact on CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V.&#145;s results of operations, liquidity and financial
condition. </P>
