S.A. de C.V., a company organized under the laws of the United Mexican States
("CEMEX"), to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $1.25
per share, of Southdown, Inc., a Louisiana corporation, including related
preferred stock purchase rights issued in respect of the Company Common Stock
(such common stock and related rights, collectively, the "Shares"), at a price
of $73.00 per share, net to the seller in cash and without interest thereon,
upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase,
dated October 5, 2000 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and the related Letter of
Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto,
constitute the "Offer"), which were filed as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B),
respectively, to the Schedule TO. Unless otherwise defined herein, all
capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given such
terms in the Offer to Purchase.
