(b) Form of Reverse of Note .

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein collectively called the “ Notes ”), issued under an Indenture, dated as of April 8, 2013 (herein called the “ Base Indenture ”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (herein called the “ Trustee ,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), Security Registrar, Paying Agent and Transfer Agent, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of [•], 2013 (herein called the “ First Supplemental Indenture ” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “ Indenture ”), among the Company, the Trustee and The Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Dublin Branch, as Irish Paying Agent, and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof.

Additional Securities on terms substantially identical to those of this Note, except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to the Board Resolution, the Officer’s Certificate, or in the indenture supplement establishing the terms of the additional Securities, may be issued by the Company without the consent of the Holders of the Notes. The amount evidenced by such additional Securities shall increase the aggregate principal amount of, and shall be consolidated and form a single series with, the Notes, in which case the Schedule of Increases and Decreases in Global Security attached hereto will be correspondingly adjusted.

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Note shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture or of the Notes) payment of principal and premium, if any, or interest need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or at the Stated Maturity, as the case may be; provided that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

7

In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Company shall pay to Holders of the Notes all additional interest (“ Additional Interest ”) that may be necessary so that every net payment of interest or principal or premium, if any, to the Holder will not be less than the amount provided for in the Notes. For purposes of the preceding sentence, “net payment” means the amount that the Company or any Paying Agent will pay the Holder after the Company deducts or withholds an amount for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges imposed or levied with respect to that payment (or the payment of such Additional Interest) by the taxing authority of Mexico or any other country under whose laws the Company is organized at the time of payment, except for the United States (each, a “ Taxing Jurisdiction ”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to pay Additional Interest to or on behalf of any Holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, or to the Trustee, for or on account of any of the following:

(i) any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges imposed solely because at any time there is or was a connection between the Holder and the Taxing Jurisdiction (other than the mere receipt of a payment, the ownership or holding of a Note or the enforcement of rights with respect to a Note);

(ii) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property or other similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed with respect to a Note;

(iii) any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges imposed solely because the Holder or any other Person fails to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Taxing Jurisdiction of the Holder or any beneficial owner of a Note if compliance is required by law, regulation or by an applicable income tax treaty to which such Taxing Jurisdiction is a party and which is effective, as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, the tax, assessment or other governmental charge and the Company has given the Holders at least 30 calendar days’ written notice prior to the first payment date with respect to which such certification, identification or reporting requirement is required to the effect that Holders will be required to provide such information and identification;

(iv) any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge payable otherwise than by deduction or withholding from payments on a Note;

(v) any taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges with respect to a Note presented for payment more than 15 days after the date on which the payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for and notice thereof given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder of such Note would have been entitled to such Additional Interest on presenting such Note for payment on any date during such 15-day period;

8

(vi) any payment on a Note to a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or a Person other than the sole beneficial owner of any such payment, to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary, a member of such a partnership or the beneficial owner of the payment would not have been entitled to the Additional Interest had the beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of such Note;

(vii) any tax, duty, assessment or governmental charge imposed on payment to an individual and required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income or any other directive implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meetings of November 26 and 27, 2000, December 13, 2001, and January 21, 2003, or any law or agreement implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such a directive; and

(viii) any combination of the items in clauses (i) through (vii) above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations on the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Interest set forth in clause (iii) above will not apply if the provision of information, documentation or other evidence described in such clause (iii) would be materially more onerous, in form, in procedure or in the substance of information disclosed, to a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, taking into account any relevant differences between U.S. and Mexican law, regulation or administrative practice, or the laws, regulations or administrative practices of any other Taxing Jurisdiction, than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under United States tax law (including the United States/Mexico Income Tax Treaty), regulations (including proposed regulations) and administrative practice. In addition, the limitations on the Company’s obligations to pay Additional Interest set forth in clause (iii) above also will not apply with respect to any Mexican withholding taxes unless (a) the provision of the information, documentation or other evidence described in such clause (iii) is expressly required by the applicable Mexican regulations, (b) the Company cannot obtain the information, documentation or other evidence necessary to comply with the applicable Mexican regulations on its own through reasonable diligence and (c) the Company otherwise would meet the requirements for application of the applicable Mexican regulations. In addition, clause (iii) above shall not be construed to require that any Person that is not a resident of Mexico for tax purposes, including any non-Mexican pension fund, retirement fund or financial institution, register with the Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público (the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit) or with the Servicio de Administración Tributaria (the Tax Administration Service) to establish eligibility for an exemption from, or a reduction of, Mexican withholding tax.

The Company shall remit the full amount of any taxes withheld to the applicable taxing authorities in accordance with applicable law of the Taxing Jurisdiction. The Company shall also provide the Trustee with documentation (which may consist of copies of such documentation) reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee evidencing the payment of taxes in respect of which the Company has paid any Additional Interest. The Company shall provide copies of such documentation to the Holders of the Notes or the relevant Paying Agent upon request.

The Company shall pay all stamp, issue, registration, documentary or other similar duties, if any, which may be imposed by Mexico or any governmental entity or political subdivision therein or thereof, or any taxing authority of or in any of the foregoing, with respect to the Indenture or the issuance of the Notes.

All references herein and in the Indenture to principal, premium, if any, or interest or any other amount payable in respect of any Note shall be deemed to mean and include all Additional Interest, if any, payable in respect of such principal, premium, if any, or interest or other amount payable, unless the context otherwise requires, and express mention of the payment of Additional Interest in any provision hereof shall not be construed as excluding reference to Additional Interest in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

9

In the event that Additional Interest actually paid with respect to the Notes pursuant to the preceding paragraphs are based on rates of deduction or withholding of withholding taxes in excess of the appropriate rate applicable to the Holder of such Notes, and, as a result thereof such Holder is entitled to make claim for a refund or credit of such excess from the authority imposing such withholding tax, then such Holder shall, by accepting such Notes, be deemed to have assigned and transferred all right, title, and interest to any such claim for a refund or credit of such excess to the Company. However, by making such assignment, the Holder makes no representation or warranty that the Company will be entitled to receive such claim for a refund or credit and incurs no other obligation with respect thereto.

All references herein and in the Indenture to principal in respect of any Note shall be deemed to mean and include any Redemption Price payable in respect of such Note pursuant to any redemption right hereunder or under the Indenture (and all such references to the Stated Maturity of the principal in respect of any Note shall be deemed to mean and include the Redemption Date with respect to any such Redemption Price), and all such references to principal, premium, if any, interest or Additional Interest shall be deemed to mean and include any amount payable in respect of this Note pursuant to Section 1009 of the Base Indenture, and express mention of the payment of any Redemption Price or any such other amount in those provisions hereof where such express reference is not made.

The Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ written notice, at any time:

(i) in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to the sum of (A) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, (B) accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to the Redemption Date and (C) any Additional Interest which would otherwise be payable thereon to the Redemption Date, solely if,

(1) as a result of any amendment to, or change in, the laws (or any rules or regulations thereunder) of Mexico, or any amendment to or change in an official interpretation or application of such laws, rules or regulations, which amendment to or change of such laws, rules or regulations becomes effective on or after May 7, 2013, the Company would be obligated on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, after taking such measures as the Company may consider reasonable to avoid this requirement, to pay Additional Interest in excess of those attributable to a withholding tax rate of 4.9%; or

(2) in the event that the Company or any successor of the Company, assuming the obligations of the Securities and the Indenture following a merger, consolidation or transfer, lease or conveyance of substantially all of the Company’s assets and properties, is organized under the laws of any Taxing Jurisdiction other than Mexico (the date on which the Company becomes subject to any such Taxing Jurisdiction, the “ Succession Date ”), and as a result of any amendment to, or change in, the laws (or any rules or regulations thereunder) of such Taxing Jurisdiction, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, any amendment to or change in an official interpretation or application of such laws, rules or regulations, which amendment to or change of such laws, rules or regulations becomes effective after the Succession Date, the Company would be obligated on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, after taking such measures as the Company may consider reasonable to avoid this requirement, to pay Additional Interest in excess of those attributable to any withholding tax rate imposed by such Taxing Jurisdiction as of the Succession Date with respect to the Notes;

10

provided, however , that (x) no notice of redemption pursuant to this clause (i) may be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to pay such Additional Interest if a payment on the Notes were then due and (y) at the time such notice of redemption is given such obligation to pay such Additional Interest remains in effect; and

(ii) in whole or in part, at a Redemption Price (calculated by the Company) equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points, plus, in the case of (1) and (2), accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of such Notes to the Redemption Date.

For purposes of clause (ii) above, the following terms shall have the specified meanings:

“ Treasury Rate ” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated maturity (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

“ Comparable Treasury Issue ” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

“ Independent Investment Banker ” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

“ Comparable Treasury Price ” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations quoted to an entity selected by the Company for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations or (2) if such entity is quoted fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“ Reference Treasury Dealer ” means each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Goldman, Sachs & Co. or their respective Affiliates which are primary United States government securities dealers; provided, however , that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary United States government securities dealer in New York City (a “ Primary Treasury Dealer ”), the Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“ Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation ” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by an entity selected by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to such entity by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for redemption (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest). On or before the Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and (unless the

11

Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest to the Redemption Date on the Notes to be redeemed on such date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate or in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary.
