SECTION 8.01. Substitute Interest Rate. In the event, and to the extent, that on the Expiration Date of the Interest Rate or the Default Rate, the TIIE Rate is not published, may not be determined by any reason, whatsoever, or if such rate ceases to exist, the rate published by Banco de Mexico as a substitute rate for the TIIE Rate shall apply in substitution of the TIIE Rate (the “Substitute Interest Rate”), provided that when the inability to determine the applicable TIIE Rate is temporary, the Substitute Interest Rate shall only apply to the period or periods in which such TIIE Rate may not be determined.

If no rate is published by Banco de Mexico as a substitute rate for the TIIE Rate, then the Substitute Interest Rate shall be the rate equivalent to: (A) in case of the Interest Rate, the sum of (i) the rate of the 28-day Treasury Bills (CETES), published the following day by Banco de Mexico in its official website (the “CETE Rate”); plus (ii) 2 percentage points; plus (iii) the applicable Margin; and (B) in case of the Delinquent Interest Rate, the sum of (i) 150% of the CETE Rate plus 2 percentage points; plus (ii) the Margin.

In the event that Banco de Mexico, does not publish either a substitute rate for the TIIE Rate or a CETE Rate, the Administrative Agent, shall agree, in good faith, in writing with the Borrower, the applicable Substitute Interest Rate; provided however that: (i) from the date in which the TIIE Rate or the CETE Rate, as the case may be, ceases to be published until the date in which the relevant substitute rate is published, the TIIE Rate is re-published or the parties agree on the applicable substitute interest rate, the Substitute Interest Rate shall be the interest rate applicable to the immediate preceding Interest Period; (ii) if the TIIE Rate cases to be published for a period exceeding 30 days, and in such period Banco de Mexico does not publish a substitute interest rate or the CETE Rate, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have not reached an agreement as to the applicable substitute interest rate, then the applicable interest rate shall be the highest market interest rate in effect, authorized to the Administrative Agent by Banco de Mexico or the competent authority replacing Banco de Mexico, which shall be promptly notified to the Borrower by the Agent; and (iii) any interest rate determined pursuant to (i) and (ii) above, shall cease to apply when Banco de Mexico publishes again the TIIE Rate, its substitute rate or the CETE Rate.

SECTION 8.02. Illegality. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Bank (or its Applicable Lending Office) to make, maintain or fund its Loans, each Bank shall use reasonable efforts consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions and as long as such efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, as reasonably determined in its sole discretion, to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would permit such Bank to maintain or fund its Loans. In case that the Bank’s efforts, as provided herein, do not permit it to make, maintain or fund its Loan and such requirement of law or such interpretation or application thereof by a competent Governmental Authority shall so mandate, such Bank shall so notify the Agents describing in reasonable detail the relevant provisions of such requirement of law or such interpretation or application thereof by a competent Governmental Authority, and such Loan shall be prepaid by the Borrower on or before the twentieth Business Day after the date of receipt by the Borrower of such notice, together with all accrued interest thereon and any amounts applicable to such prepayment (unless actions taken pursuant to this paragraph shall make such prepayment unnecessary); provided, however, that if it is lawful for such Bank to maintain its Loan through the last day of the applicable Interest Period, such payment shall be made on such date.

insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Bank (or the Applicable Lending Office) or any other acquisition of funds by, the Applicable Lending Office of such Bank, or (ii) impose on such Bank any other condition, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank, by an amount which such Bank reasonably deems to be material, of making or maintaining its Loan or to reduce any amount receivable under this Agreement or under its corresponding Promissory Note; then, in any such case, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower or any Guarantor shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts to compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction.

(b) If after the date hereof, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation or any change in any such law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or the compliance by any Bank (or the Applicable Lending Office) of any request or directive of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency (whether or not having the force of law), has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Bank as a consequence of such Bank’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower or any Guarantor shall pay to such Bank such additional amounts to compensate such Bank for such reduction.

(c) Each Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, entitles such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section and shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation avoids the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and shall not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. In determining such amount, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

In any of the events set forth in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, the Borrower may prepay the Loan, in which case Section 2.05 and Section 2.08 herein shall not apply, provided that in the case such prepayment is made after the legal provision becomes effective and/or any of the terms granted for its fulfillment, the Borrower shall pay the additional amount to which this Section refers to, for the period comprised from the date in which the legal provision becomes effective and/or any of the terms granted for its fulfillment, until the corresponding payment is received.

(e) No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Bank’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 8.03 or 8.04 than such Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is an assignment made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.
