CEMEX Announces Exercise of Over-Allotment Options in Global Offering

The additional CPOs will be sold at the same public offering prices as the global public offering of US$12.50 per ADS and MXP16.65 per CPO.

The estimated aggregate net proceeds from the global offering, including proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment options, are expected to be approximately US$ 1.782 billion.
