<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On March&nbsp;13, 2019, CEMEX, S.A.B. de C.V. (&#147;CEMEX&#148;) (NYSE: CX) informed the Mexican Stock Exchange (<I>Bolsa Mexicana de Valores</I>) that Fitch
Ratings has upgraded the foreign and local currency Issuer Default Ratings (IDRs) of CEMEX to &#145;BB&#146; from <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#145;BB-&#146;,</FONT> as well as its senior secured notes to &#145;BB&#146; from <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#145;BB-&#146;.</FONT> Simultaneously, Fitch Ratings has assigned a &#145;BB&#146; rating to the recent EUR400&nbsp;million notes due 2026. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">According to Fitch Ratings, the rating upgrades are supported by the strengthening of CEMEX&#146;s capital structure due to U.S.$5&nbsp;billion in debt
reduction in the last three years, which was primarily funded with U.S.$3.5&nbsp;billion of free cash flow. Further factored into the rating actions is the refinancing of about U.S.$7&nbsp;billion of debt, which, combined with debt repayment and the
conversion of U.S.$325&nbsp;million of convertible notes, has lowered interest payments by about U.S.$200&nbsp;million per year. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In conjunction with this
rating action, Fitch Ratings has also upgraded CEMEX&#146;s long-term national scale rating to &#145;A+(mex)&#146; from &#145;A(mex); CEMEX&#146;s short-term national scale rating was affirmed at &#145;F1+ (mex)&#146;. The Rating Outlook is revised
to Stable from Positive. </P>
