(1) Per U.S.$1,000 principal amount |
Holders who (i) validly tender and who do not validly withdraw Securities at or prior to the applicable Expiration Date or (ii) deliver a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery and all other required documents at or prior to the applicable Expiration Date and tender their Securities at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the second business day after the applicable Expiration Date (the "Guaranteed Delivery Date"), and whose Securities are accepted for purchase by us, will receive the applicable Tender Consideration set forth in the table above for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Securities (with respect to each series, the "Tender Consideration"). The Tender Consideration will be payable in cash.
In addition to the applicable Tender Consideration, Holders whose Securities are accepted for purchase will be paid the applicable accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities to, but not including, the applicable Settlement Date (the "Accrued Coupon Payment"), together with additional amounts thereon. Interest will cease to accrue on the applicable Settlement Date for all Securities purchased in the Tender Offers, including those tendered through the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures.
PEMEX's obligation to accept and pay for the Securities of a particular series validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to a Tender Offer is conditioned on the aggregate principal amount of all Securities validly tendered and accepted not exceeding U.S. $5.0 billion (the "Maximum Tender Amount"), and on the Maximum Tender Amount being equal to or greater than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Securities of such series, plus the aggregate principal amount of all validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Securities of each series having a higher Acceptance Priority Level as set forth in the table above (the "Maximum Tender Condition"). For purposes of determining whether the Maximum Tender Condition is satisfied, PEMEX will assume that all Securities tendered pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures will be duly delivered at or prior to the Guaranteed Delivery Date and we will not subsequently adjust the acceptance of Securities in accordance with the Acceptance Priority Levels if any such Securities are not so delivered.
The Securities accepted for purchase in the Tender Offers will be accepted in accordance with their Acceptance Priority Levels (with 1 being the highest Acceptance Priority Level and 10 being the lowest Acceptance Priority Level). PEMEX will accept in the Tender Offers all Securities of each series tendered in accordance with the applicable Acceptance Priority Level, so long as the Maximum Tender Amount is equal to or greater than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Securities of such series, plus the aggregate principal amount of all validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Securities of each series having a higher Acceptance Priority Level. All Securities of a series validly tendered and not validly withdrawn having a higher Acceptance Priority Level will be accepted before any Securities having a lower Acceptance Priority Level are accepted. If the Maximum Tender Condition is not satisfied with respect to any series of Securities, we may terminate the Tender Offer or waive the Maximum Tender Condition, with respect to such series only if we also terminate the Tender Offer or waive the Maximum Tender Condition, for each series having a lower Acceptance Priority Level, if any.
PEMEX's obligation to accept Securities tendered in the Tender Offers is also subject to the satisfaction of certain other customary conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, including that PEMEX will not be obligated to consummate the Tender Offers upon the occurrence of an event or events or the likely occurrence of an event or events that would or might reasonably be expected to prohibit, restrict or delay the consummation of the Tender Offers or materially impair the contemplated benefits to PEMEX of the Tender Offers.
PEMEX reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to waive any and all conditions to any Tender Offer.
Global Bondholder Services Corporation will also act as the Information Agent and the Tender Agent for the Tender Offers. Questions or requests for assistance related to the Tender Offers or for additional copies of the Offer Documents may be directed to Global Bondholder Services Corporation at (866) 470-4500 (toll free) or (212) 430-3774 (collect). You may also contact your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the Tender Offers.
The Offer Documents can be accessed at the following link: https://www.gbsc-usa.com/PEMEX/.
PEMEX has retained Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc. and Mizuho Securities USA LLC to act as dealer managers in connection with the Tender Offers (the "Dealer Managers").
If PEMEX terminates any Tender Offer with respect to one or more series of Securities, it will give prompt notice to the Tender Agent and all Securities tendered pursuant to such terminated Tender Offer will be returned promptly to the tendering holders thereof. With effect from such termination, any Securities blocked in The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") will be released. If the Maximum Tender Condition is not satisfied with respect to a series of Securities, elections to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures will be promptly rejected with respect to such series and any series having a lower Acceptance Priority Level, if any.
Holders are advised to check with any bank, securities broker or other intermediary through which they hold Securities as to when such intermediary would need to receive instructions from such holder in order for that holder to be able to participate in, or withdraw their instruction to participate in, a Tender Offer, before the deadlines specified herein and in the Offer Documents. The deadlines set by any such intermediary and DTC for the submission and withdrawal of tender instructions will also be earlier than the relevant deadlines specified herein and in the Offer Documents.
This announcement is for informational purposes only. This announcement is not an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell any Securities. The Tender Offers are being made solely pursuant to the Offer Documents. The Tender Offers are not being made to holders of Securities in any jurisdiction in which the making or acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities, blue sky or other laws of such jurisdiction. In any jurisdiction in which the securities laws or blue sky laws require the Tender Offers to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Tender Offers will be deemed to be made on behalf of PEMEX by the Dealer Managers for the Tender Offers or one or more registered brokers or dealers that are licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction.
The communication of this press release and any other documents or materials relating to the Tender Offers is not being made and such documents and/or materials have not been approved by an authorized person for the purposes of Section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. Accordingly, such documents and/or materials are not being distributed to, and must not be passed on to, the general public in the United Kingdom.

The Tender Offers were only available to, and the Tender Offers were engaged in only with, relevant persons. Any person who is not a relevant person should not act or rely on any document relating to the Tender Offers or any of their contents.
