To the Agents listed on

The United Mexican States (“Mexico”) proposes to issue and sell up to U.S. $1,500,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies or currency units) aggregate principal amount (or aggregate initial offering price, as the case may be) of its InterNotes^{^®} due nine months or more from the date of issue (the “Notes”). The Notes are to be issued pursuant to a fiscal agency agreement, dated as of February 13 (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”) between Mexico and The Bank of New York, as fiscal agent (the “Fiscal Agent”) and the authorization certificate of Mexico pursuant to Section 1(b) thereto dated February 13, 2006 (the “Authorization”). The terms of the Notes are described in the Prospectus (as defined in Section I) referred to below.

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, Mexico hereby appoints each of you as agent of Mexico (each, an “Agent” and together, the “Agents”) for the purpose of soliciting offers to purchase Notes. Each of you hereby agrees to use your reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase Notes in accordance with the terms hereof and upon terms acceptable to Mexico at such times and in such amounts as Mexico shall from time to time specify after consultation with Incapital LLC as purchasing agent (the “Purchasing Agent”) or Incapital Europe Limited as arranger (the “Arranger”), as the case may be. Incapital LLC shall act as Purchasing Agent for issuances and sales of all Notes to be sold hereunder. Mexico hereby agrees that whenever it determines to sell Notes pursuant to this Agreement, such Notes shall be sold pursuant to a Terms Agreement (as defined in Section III hereof) relating to such sale between Mexico and the Purchasing Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section III hereof, with the Purchasing Agent purchasing such Notes as agent for resale (i) in the case of Notes sold in the United States, to other Agents or dealers (the “Selected Dealers”), each of whom will purchase as principal or (ii) in the case of Notes sold outside the United States, to the Arranger, who will purchase such Notes as agent for resale to other Agents or Selected Dealers, each of whom will purchase as principal. Mexico reserves the right to enter into agreements substantially similar hereto with other agents, subject to prior notification to the Purchasing Agent of any such agreements. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “you” shall refer to all of the Agents collectively. In acting under this Agreement, each of you is acting individually and not jointly, unless specified otherwise in the applicable Terms Agreement.

I. Representations and Warranties.

(a) Mexico represents and warrants to, and agrees with, you as set forth below in this Section I(a). Certain terms used in this Section I are defined in subsection I(a)(13) hereof.


InterNotesÒ is a registered servicemark of Incapital Holdings LLC.

(1) Mexico meets the requirements for use of Schedule B under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), is a seasoned foreign government within the meaning of Commission Release No. 33-6424 and has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) registration statements on such Schedule (File Nos. 333-122616 and 333-110594), including a basic prospectus, which have become effective for the registration under the Act of U.S. $3,951,406,915 (or its equivalent in other currencies or currency units) aggregate principal amount (or aggregate initial offering price, as the case may be) of debt securities and/or warrants (the “Securities”), including the Notes. Such registration statements meet the requirements set forth in Commission Release No. 33-6424 and comply in all other material respects with such Release. Mexico has included in such registration statements, or has filed or will file with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) under the Act, a supplement to the prospectus included in such registration statements relating to the Notes and the plan of distribution thereof (the “Prospectus Supplement”). In connection with the sale of Notes in the United States, Mexico proposes to file with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) under the Act further supplements to the Prospectus Supplement (each, a “Pricing Supplement”) specifying the principal amount, interest rates, maturity dates and, if appropriate, other terms of such Notes sold pursuant hereto or the offering thereof.

(2) As of the Execution Date, on the Effective Date, when any supplement to the Prospectus is filed with the Commission and at each Settlement Date (as defined in Section III hereof), (i) the Registration Statement, as amended as of any such time, and the Prospectus, as supplemented as of any such time, will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the respective rules thereunder; (ii) the Registration Statement, as amended as of any such time, did not or will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and (iii) the Prospectus, as supplemented as of any such time, will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that Mexico makes no representations or warranties as to the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to Mexico by any of you specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto).

(3) For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Time of Sale” means, with respect to each sale of Notes hereunder, the date and time specified in the applicable Terms Agreement. With respect to each sale of Notes hereunder, the Pricing Prospectus relating to such Notes, together with each “issuer free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 433 under the Act relating to such Notes (“Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) listed in Exhibit G hereto (if any) and any additional Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses or term sheet listed in an exhibit to the applicable Terms Agreement, as of such Time of Sale of such Notes (collectively for each such Time of Sale, the “Time of Sale Information”), does not or will not include any untrue statement of a

material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus with respect to such Notes listed in Exhibit G hereto (if any) or as an exhibit to the applicable Terms Agreement did not or will not conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement; provided, however, that the representations and warranties in this paragraph (3) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from any such document made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to Mexico by you expressly for use therein.

(4) (i) At the earliest time after the filing of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereto) that Mexico or another offering participant made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) under the Securities Act) and (ii) as of the date hereof, Mexico was not and is not an “ineligible issuer” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act), without taking into account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that Mexico be considered an “ineligible issuer”.

(5) Subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information, except as set forth in or contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information, there has not been any material adverse change in or affecting the financial, economic, political or other condition of Mexico.

(6) All necessary action by or on behalf of Mexico has been taken or will have been taken prior to each Settlement Date, and prior to such date any necessary approvals or consents required under the laws of Mexico will have been duly obtained, and on such date will be in full force and effect, for the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Authorization and any Terms Agreement and for the issuance and sale of Notes by Mexico under this Agreement including, without limitation, the Presidential Decree permitting issuances of Notes and the delegation of authority (the “Delegation of Authority”) issued by the Secretary of Finance and Public Credit.

(7) The Notes have been duly authorized and, when executed and authenticated in accordance with the Fiscal Agency Agreement and delivered to and paid for by the purchasers thereof against payment therefor in accordance with the terms hereof, will be entitled to the benefits of the Fiscal Agency Agreement and will constitute valid and legally binding, direct, general and unconditional External Indebtedness of Mexico (as defined below) enforceable in accordance with their terms. The full faith and credit of Mexico has been pledged for the due and punctual payment of principal of, interest on, and premium, if any, on the Notes, and the Notes will rank pari passu, without any preference among themselves with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Mexico, present and future, relating to External Indebtedness; and the Notes and the Fiscal Agency Agreement will conform to the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus. For purposes of this paragraph (5), “External Indebtedness” means any Indebtedness which is payable by its terms or at the option of its holder in any currency other than the currency of Mexico (other than any such indebtedness that is originally

issued or incurred within Mexico) and “Indebtedness” means all unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of Mexico in respect of moneys borrowed by Mexico and guarantees of Mexico in respect of moneys borrowed by others.

(8) Other than as set forth in the Prospectus and the Time of Sale Information, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which Mexico is a party or of which any of its properties is the subject which, if determined adversely to Mexico, would individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on Mexico’s ability to perform its obligations under the Notes, this Agreement, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Authorization or any Terms Agreement; and, to the best of Mexico’s knowledge, no such proceedings have been threatened.

(9) Mexico is not in default in the payment of principal, interest or any other amounts owing on any obligation in respect of indebtedness for money borrowed and Mexico has not received any notice of default (other than with respect to any failure to deliver periodically economic or financial information pursuant to agreements relating to Mexico’s indebtedness) or acceleration with respect to any obligation in respect of indebtedness for money borrowed; and the issuance and sale of the Notes and the compliance by Mexico with all of the provisions of the Notes, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Authorization and this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions herein and therein contemplated will not conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any treaty, convention, material agreement or material instrument to which Mexico is a party or by which it is bound and will not result in the creation or imposition of any mortgage, lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any of the revenues or assets of Mexico under any such agreement or instrument and will not infringe any law or regulation of Mexico.

(10) There is no tax, levy, deduction, charge or withholding imposed by Mexico or any political subdivision thereof either (i) on or by virtue of the execution, delivery or enforcement of this Agreement, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Authorization or any Terms Agreement or (ii) on any payment to be made by Mexico hereunder or any payment of principal, interest or additional amounts, if any, under any Note, provided that such Note is held by an individual or a corporation that is not a resident of Mexico for tax purposes directly and not through a permanent establishment thereof in Mexico.

(11) The issuance of Notes by Mexico hereunder and under the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the Authorization complies with, and is within the limits set forth in, Mexico’s Federal Revenue Law for the Fiscal Year 2006.

(12) The use given by Mexico to the proceeds of any issue of Notes will not impair Mexico’s obligations thereunder.

(b) (1) Each Agent severally and not jointly represents to and agrees with Mexico that it has not offered or sold, and that it will not offer or sell, any Notes allotted to such Agent as part of its allotment of Notes to be offered and sold outside the United States (“Non-U.S. Offerings”) within the United States except in accordance with Rule 903 of Regulation S under the Act and that, accordingly, neither such Agent nor its affiliates nor any persons acting on its or their behalf have engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts with respect to Notes being offered or to be offered and sold in Non-U.S. Offerings. Terms used in this paragraph have the meanings given to them in Regulation S under the Act.

(2) (a) Each Agent severally represents to and agrees with Mexico and each further Agent appointed under the InterNotes^Òprogram will be required to represent and agree that, in relation to each member state of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (as defined below) (each, a “Relevant Member State”), that with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Member State (the “Relevant Implementation Date”) it has not made and will not make an offer of Notes to the public in that Relevant Member State, except that it may, with effect from and including the Relevant Implementation Date, make an offer of the Notes to the public in that Relevant Member State: (i) in (or in Germany, where the offer starts within) the period beginning on the date of publication of a prospectus in relation to those Notes which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, all in accordance with the Prospectus Directive and ending on the date which is 12 months after the date of such publication; (ii) at any time to legal entities which are authorized or regulated to operate in the financial markets or, if not so authorized or regulated, whose corporate purpose is solely to invest in securities; (iii) at any time to any legal entity which has two or more of (1) an average of at least 250 employees during the last financial year; (2) a total balance sheet of more than €43,000,000 and (3) an annual net turnover of more than €50,000,000, as shown in its last annual or consolidated accounts; or (iv) at any time in any other circumstances which do not require the publication by Mexico of a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive.

For the purposes of this provision, the expression an “offer of Notes to the public” in relation to any Notes in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Notes to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Notes, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State.

(b) Each Agent severally represents to and agrees with Mexico that: (i) the offering of the Notes has not been, and will not be, cleared by the Italian Securities Exchange Commission (Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa) (“CONSOB”) pursuant to Italian securities legislation and, that it has not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell, any Notes in the Republic of Italy (“Italy”) in a solicitation to the public (sollecitazione al’investimento), and, therefore, that no Notes will be offered, sold or delivered or copies of the Prospectus Supplement, the applicable Pricing Supplement, the Basic Prospectus or any other document relating to the Notes or the offering will be distributed in Italy other than to professional investors (operatori qualification), as defined in Article 31, paragraph 2 of CONSOB Regulation No. 11,522 of July 1, 1998, as amended (“Regulation No. 11,522”) or pursuant to another exemption from the requirements of Articles 94 and seq. of Legislative Decree No. 58 of February 24, 1998 (“Legislative Decree No. 58”) and CONSOB Regulation No. 11,971 of May 14, 1999, and in accordance with Italian securities, banking, tax, exchange control and all other applicable laws and regulations; and (ii) that any such permitted offer, sale or delivery of

the Notes or distribution or availability of copies of the Prospectus Supplement, the applicable Pricing Supplement, the Basic Prospectus or any other material relating to the Notes or the offering in Italy will be: (a) made by investment firms, banks or financial intermediaries permitted to conduct such activities in Italy in accordance with Legislative Decree No. 385 of September 1, 1993 (the “Banking Law”), Legislative Decree No. 58, Regulation No. 11,522 and any other applicable laws and regulations; (b) in compliance with Article 129 of the Banking Law and the implementing instructions of the Bank of Italy, pursuant to which the issue or offer of securities in Italy is subject to prior notification to the Bank of Italy, unless an exemption, depending inter alia on the amount of the issue and the characteristics of the securities, applies; and (c) in compliance with any other applicable notification requirement or limitation which may be imposed upon the offer of the Notes by CONSOB or the Bank of Italy.

In addition to the above (which shall continue to apply to the extent not inconsistent with the Prospectus Directive), after the implementation of the Prospectus Directive in Italy, the restrictions, warranties and representations set forth in Section I(b)(2)(a) of this Agreement shall apply to Italy.

(c) Each Agent severally represents to and agrees, and each further Agent appointed under the InterNotes^Òprogram will be required to represent and agree with Mexico that in relation to Notes that have a maturity of less than one year and that qualify as money market instruments, such Notes may not be offered, sold, transferred or delivered in or from the Netherlands as part of their initial distribution or at any time thereafter, directly or indirectly, other than to banks, pension funds, insurance companies, securities firms, investment institutions, central governments, large international and supranational institutions and other comparable entities, including, inter alia, large enterprises, that trade or invest in securities in the conduct of a profession or trade, within the meaning of Section 2(1) of the Exemption Regulation pursuant to the 1995 Act on the Supervision of Securities Trade (Vrijstellingsregeling Wet toezicht effectenverkeer 1995).

21(1) of the FSMA would not apply to Mexico; and (iii) it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA with respect to anything done by it in relation to any Notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

(3) Without prejudice to the provisions of Section I(a)(2) above and except for registration under the Act and compliance with the rules and regulations thereunder and the qualification of the Notes for offer and sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as Mexico and the Agents may agree pursuant to Section IV(f), Mexico shall not have any responsibility for, and each Agent severally and not jointly agrees with Mexico that each such Agent and its respective affiliates will obtain, any consent, approval or authorization required by them for the purchase, offer, sale or delivery by them of any of the Notes under the laws and regulations in force in any jurisdiction to which they are subject or in or from which they make such purchase, offer, sale or delivery of any of the Notes.

(4) Each Agent agrees with Mexico that: (i) Mexico will generally not register the Notes that it will offer and sell outside the United States under the Securities Act and that, subject to certain exceptions, Mexico cannot offer, sell or deliver such Notes within the United States or to U.S. persons, and (ii) when Mexico offers or sells Notes outside the United States, each Agent will acknowledge that these Notes (a) have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act; and (b) may not be offered or sold within the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(5) Notes in bearer form (“Bearer Notes”) are subject to United States tax law requirements. Accordingly, each Agent severally and not jointly represents and agrees to the following: (i) except to the extent permitted under U.S. Treas. Reg. § 1.163–5(c)(2)(i)(D) (the “D Rules”), (A) it has not offered or sold, and during the restricted period will not offer or sell, Bearer Notes to a person who is within the United States or its possessions or to a United States Person, and (B) it has not delivered and will not deliver within the United States or its possessions definitive Bearer Notes that are sold during the restricted period; (ii) it represents and agrees that it has and throughout the restricted period will have in effect procedures reasonably designed to ensure that its employees or agents who are directly engaged in selling Bearer Notes are aware that such Bearer Notes may not be offered or sold during the restricted period to a person who is within the United States or its possessions or to a United States Person, except as permitted by the D Rules; (iii) if it is a United States Person, it represents that it is acquiring the Bearer Notes for purposes of resale in connection with their original issuance and if it retains Bearer Notes for its own account, it will only do so in accordance with the requirements of U.S. Treas. Reg. § 1.163–5(c)(2)(i)(D)(6); and (iv) with respect to each affiliate that acquires from it Bearer Notes for the purpose of offering or selling such Bearer Notes during the restricted period, it either (A) repeats and confirms the representations and agreements contained in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) on such affiliate’s behalf or (B) agrees that it will obtain from such affiliate for Mexico’s benefit the representations and agreements contained in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii). In addition, each Agent represents and agrees that it has not entered and will not enter into any contractual arrangement with any distributor (as that term is defined for purposes of the D Rules) with respect to the distribution of Bearer Notes, except with its affiliates or with

the prior written consent of Mexico. Terms used in this paragraph have the meanings given to them by the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and regulations thereunder, including the D Rules.

II. Offering of Notes.

(a) The Agents propose to solicit offers to purchase the Notes upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Prospectus and upon the terms communicated to the Agents from time to time by Mexico or the Purchasing Agent, as the case may be. For the purpose of such solicitation, the Agents will use the Prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, which has been most recently distributed to the Agents by Mexico, and the Agents will solicit offers to purchase only as permitted or contemplated thereby and herein and will solicit offers to purchase the Notes only as permitted by the Act and the applicable securities laws or regulations of any relevant jurisdiction.

Unless otherwise instructed by Mexico, the Purchasing Agent shall communicate to Mexico, orally or in writing, each offer to purchase Notes. Mexico shall have the sole right to accept offers to purchase Notes and may reject any proposed offers to purchase Notes as a whole or in part. Each Agent shall have the right, in its discretion reasonably exercised, to reject any proposed purchase of Notes, as a whole or in part, and any such rejection shall not be deemed a breach of its agreements contained herein. Mexico agrees to pay the Purchasing Agent, as consideration for soliciting offers to purchase Notes pursuant to a Terms Agreement, a concession in the form of a discount equal to the percentages of the initial offering price of each Note actually sold as set forth in Exhibit A hereto (the “Concession”); provided, however, that Mexico and the Purchasing Agent also may agree to a Concession greater than or less than the percentages set forth on Exhibit A hereto. The actual aggregate Concession with respect to each tranche of Notes will be set forth in the related Pricing Supplement. The Purchasing Agent and the other Agents or Selected Dealers will share the above-mentioned Concession in such proportions as they may agree.

Unless otherwise authorized by Mexico, all Notes shall be sold to the public at a purchase price not to exceed 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest, if any. Such purchase price shall be set forth in the confirmation statement of the Agent or Selected Dealer responsible for such sale and delivered to the purchaser along with, in the case of Notes to be sold in the United States, a copy of the Prospectus (if not previously delivered) and applicable Pricing Supplement.

(b) Procedural details relating to the issue and delivery of, and the solicitation of purchases and payment for, the Notes are set forth in the Administrative Procedures attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Procedures”), as amended from time to time. Part I of the Procedures shall apply to offerings of Notes denominated in U.S. dollars and Part II of the Procedures shall apply to offerings of Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. Unless otherwise provided in a Terms Agreement, the provisions of the applicable set of Procedures shall apply to all transactions contemplated hereunder. The Agents and Mexico each agree to perform the respective duties and obligations specifically provided to be performed by each in the Procedures as amended from time to time. The Procedures may only be amended by written agreement of Mexico and the Agents.

III. Sale of Notes.

Each sale of Notes shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Procedures and a separate agreement in substantially the form attached as Exhibit C (a “Terms Agreement”) to be entered into which will provide for the sale of such Notes to, and the purchase and reoffering thereof, by the Purchasing Agent acting as agent. A Terms Agreement also may specify certain provisions relating to the reoffering of such Notes by the Purchasing Agent. Unless the context otherwise requires, each reference contained herein to “this Agreement” shall be deemed to include any applicable Terms Agreement between Mexico and the Purchasing Agent, and express mention of Terms Agreements in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding Terms Agreements in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made. The offering of Notes by Mexico hereunder and the Purchasing Agent’s agreement to purchase Notes pursuant to any Terms Agreement shall be deemed to have been made on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements of Mexico herein contained and shall be subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth. Each Terms Agreement shall describe the Notes to be purchased pursuant thereto by the Purchasing Agent as agent, and may specify, among other things, the principal amount of Notes to be purchased, the interest rate or interest rate basis (and whether such interest rate shall be fixed or floating) and maturity date or dates of such Notes, the interest payment dates, if any, the net proceeds to Mexico, the initial public offering price at which the Notes are proposed to be reoffered, and the time, date (the “Settlement Date”) and place of delivery of and payment for such Notes, whether the Notes provide for a Survivor’s Option (as such term is defined in the Prospectus), whether the Notes are redeemable or repayable and on what terms and conditions, and any other relevant terms. In connection with the resale of the Notes purchased, without the consent of Mexico, the Agents are not authorized to appoint subagents or to engage the service of any other broker or dealer (other than the Selected Dealers), nor may any Agent reallow any portion of the discount paid to it.

IV. Covenants.

In further consideration of the Agents’ agreements herein contained, Mexico covenants and agrees with each Agent as follows:

(a) Prior to the termination of the offering of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement, Mexico will not file any amendment to the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus or supplement the Time of Sale Information (except for (i) periodic or current reports filed under the Exchange Act, (ii) a supplement relating to any offering of Notes providing solely for the specification of or a change in the maturity dates, interest rates, issuance prices or other terms of any Notes or (iii) a supplement relating to an offering of Securities other than the Notes) unless Mexico has furnished to each of you (or the Purchasing Agent, in the case of a supplement to the Time of Sale Information) a copy for your review prior to filing and given each of you a reasonable opportunity to comment on any such proposed amendment or supplement. Subject to the foregoing sentence, in connection with an issue of Notes being offered in the United States or being resold into the United States within the period during which a prospectus is required to be delivered, Mexico will cause each supplement to the Prospectus to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) within the time period prescribed. Mexico will promptly advise each of you (i) when the Prospectus, and any supplement thereto (except as provided in clauses (i) or (iii) above), shall have been filed with the Commission pursuant to

Rule 424(b), (ii) when, prior to termination of any offering of Notes, any amendment of the Registration Statement shall have been filed or become effective, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment of the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus or for any additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the institution or threatening of any proceeding for that purpose and (v) of the receipt by Mexico of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Notes for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose. Mexico will use its best efforts to prevent the issuance of any such stop order and, if issued, to obtain as soon as possible the withdrawal thereof.

(b) If, at any time when a prospectus relating to the Notes (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) is required to be delivered under the Act, any event occurs as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made when such prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) is delivered, not misleading, or if for any other reason it shall be necessary to amend the Registration Statement or to supplement the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus to comply with the Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, Mexico promptly will (i) notify each of you to suspend solicitation of offers to purchase Notes (and, if so notified by Mexico, each of you shall forthwith suspend such solicitation and cease using the Prospectus as then supplemented), (ii) prepare and file with the Commission, subject to the first sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section IV, an amendment or supplement which will correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance and (iii) supply any supplemented Prospectuses and Time of Sale Information to each of you in such quantities as you may reasonably request; provided, however, that in the event that any Agent is required to deliver a prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) relating to any Notes at any time nine months or more after the Settlement Date with respect to such Notes, such Agent shall reimburse Mexico for its reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses (including the legal fees and disbursements of its counsel) in connection with the preparation and filing of such amendment or supplement and the furnishing to such Agent of such supplemented Prospectuses. Mexico’s obligations to update the Prospectus pursuant to Sections IV(l), IV(m) and IV(n) hereof, including payment of any expenses incurred by Mexico in connection therewith, shall not be affected by the preceding sentence.

If such amendment or supplement, and any documents, certificates and opinions furnished to each of you pursuant to paragraph (j) of this Section IV in connection with the preparation or filing of such amendment or supplement are satisfactory in all respects to you, you will, upon the filing of such amendment or supplement with the Commission and upon the effectiveness of an amendment to the Registration Statement, if such an amendment is required, resume your obligation to solicit offers to purchase Notes hereunder.

(c) Mexico will make generally available to its security holders in the United States and to each of you as soon as practicable, a statement of Mexico’s revenues and expenditures for the first full fiscal year commencing after the date hereof which will satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Act and Rule 158 under the Act.

(f) Mexico will arrange for the qualification of the Notes for sale under the laws of such jurisdictions of the United States and Canada as any of you may designate and such other jurisdictions as Mexico and you shall agree upon and will maintain such qualifications in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Notes; provided, however, that in connection therewith Mexico shall not be required to take any action that would subject it to general or unlimited service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not at the date hereof subject.

(o) Each acceptance by Mexico of an offer to purchase Notes will be deemed to be an affirmation that its representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct at the time of such acceptance, as though made at and as of such time, and a covenant that (i) such representations and warranties will be true and correct and (ii) the statements of Mexico made in the most recent certificates delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be accurate, in each case at the time of delivery to the purchaser of the Notes relating to such acceptance, as though made at and as of such time (it being understood that for purposes of the foregoing affirmation and covenant such representations and warranties shall relate to the Registration Statement and Prospectus as amended or supplemented at each such time). Each such acceptance by Mexico of an offer for the purchase of Notes shall be deemed to constitute an additional representation, warranty and agreement by Mexico that, as of the settlement date for the sale of such Notes, after giving effect to the issuance of such Notes, of any other Notes to be issued on or prior to such settlement date and of any other Securities to be issued and sold by Mexico on or prior to such settlement date, the aggregate amount of Securities (including any Notes) which have been issued and sold by Mexico will not exceed the amount of Securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement.

(r) Mexico shall not default in its obligations to deliver Notes to a purchaser whose offer it has accepted.

(s) Each time Mexico issues Notes hereunder and under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, such issuance will comply with, and will be within the limits set forth in, Mexico’s Federal Revenue Law for the respective year.

had been given an opportunity for a hearing as to the accuracy of such translation, and proceedings would thereafter be based upon such translation;

(c) Each Agent shall have received from Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, United States counsel to Mexico, such opinion or opinions, dated the Execution Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agents, to the effect that:

(1) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Mexico;

(3) assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by Mexico of each sub-authorization required by the Authorization and of the Notes against payment therefor, and assuming due authentication, execution and delivery of the Notes by the

Fiscal Agent, the Notes will be the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Mexico, entitled to the benefits of the Fiscal Agency Agreement, (a) subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity and (b) subject to possible judicial action giving effect to foreign governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights;

(4) the issuance and sale of the Notes by Mexico pursuant to this Agreement and any applicable Terms Agreement and the performance by Mexico of its obligations in this Agreement, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Notes and the Authorization do not require any consent, approval, authorization, registration or qualification of or with any governmental authority of the United States or the State of New York that in such counsel’s experience is normally applicable in relation to transactions of the type contemplated by this Agreement, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Authorization and the Notes, except such as have been obtained or effected under the Act and such consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations or qualifications as may be required under state securities or Blue Sky laws in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Notes under this Agreement (as to which such counsel need express no opinion);

Notice of such cancellation shall be given to Mexico in writing or by telephone or telegraph confirmed in writing. The documents required to be delivered by this Section VI shall be delivered at the office of the United States counsel to Mexico, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP, Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000.

VII. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) Mexico agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of you, each of your respective directors, officers, employees and agents and each person who controls each of you within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which you, they or any of you or them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, or the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Information, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses, as incurred, reasonably incurred by it in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that (i) Mexico will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Mexico by any of you specifically for inclusion therein and (ii) for all Notes sold in the United States, with respect to any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in any Time of Sale Information relating to the Notes, such indemnity shall not inure to the benefit of any Agent from whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased the Notes, to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability results from the fact that a copy of any subsequent Time of Sale Information (which did not contain any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission) was delivered to such Agent by Mexico on a timely basis enabling such Agent to send, give or make available a copy of such subsequent Time of Sale Information in accordance with such Agent’s customary procedures prior to the entry into the contract of sale of the Notes to such person, and such Agent failed to do so. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Mexico may otherwise have.

Mexico further agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent against any requirement under the laws of Mexico to pay any stamp or similar taxes in connection with any issuance of the Notes to such Agent by Mexico.

(b) Each of you agrees severally and not jointly to indemnify and hold harmless Mexico and each of its officials, including its authorized representative in the United States, who signs the Registration Statement to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from Mexico to you, but only with reference to written information relating to such of you furnished to Mexico by such of you specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which you may otherwise have.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section VII of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section VII, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by

the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent will be not unreasonably withheld. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not contain a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of, any indemnified party.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section VII is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, Mexico and each of you agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which Mexico and one or more of you may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by Mexico and by each of you from the offering of the Notes from which such Losses arise; provided, however, that in no case shall any of you be responsible for any amount in excess of the commissions received by such of you in connection with the sale of Notes from which such Losses arise (or, in the case of Notes sold pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the aggregate commissions or underwriting discounts payable pursuant thereto). If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, Mexico and each of you shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of Mexico and of each of you in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by Mexico shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) of the Notes from which such Losses arise, and benefits received by each of you shall be deemed to be equal to the total commissions received by such of you in connection with the sale of Notes from which such Losses arise (or, in the case of Notes sold pursuant to a Terms Agreement, the aggregate commissions or underwriting discounts payable pursuant thereto). Relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether any alleged untrue statement or omission relates to information provided by Mexico or any of you. Mexico and each of you agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata

allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section VII, each person who controls any of you within the meaning of the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of any of you shall have the same rights to contribution as you and each official of Mexico who shall have signed the Registration Statement shall have the same rights to contribution as Mexico, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

VIII. Termination.

(a) Mexico may elect to suspend or terminate the offering of Notes under this Agreement at any time; Mexico also (as to any one or more of the Agents) or any Agent (as to itself) may terminate the appointment and arrangements described in this Agreement. Upon receipt of instructions from Mexico, the Purchasing Agent shall suspend or terminate the participation of any Selected Dealer under the Master Selected Dealer Agreement or the Selling Group Members Agreement (each as referred to in Exhibit B hereto), as the case may be. Such actions may be taken, in the case of Mexico, by giving prompt written notice of suspension to all of the Agents and by giving not less than five days’ written notice of termination to the affected party and the other parties to this Agreement, or in the case of an Agent, by giving not less than five days’ written notice of termination to Mexico and except that, if at the time of termination an offer for the purchase of Notes shall have been accepted by Mexico but the time of delivery to the purchaser or his agent of the Note or Notes relating thereto shall not yet have occurred, Mexico shall have the obligations provided herein with respect to such Note or Notes. Mexico shall promptly notify the other parties in writing of any such termination.

(b) The Purchasing Agent may, and, upon the request of an Agent with respect to any Notes being purchased by such Agent shall, terminate any agreement hereunder by the Purchasing Agent to purchase such Notes immediately upon notice given to Mexico prior to the Settlement Date relating thereto, if prior to such time:

(1) in the case of Notes sold pursuant to a Non-U.S. Offering, in the opinion of such Agent, after consultation with Mexico, there shall have been such a change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls as would in its view be likely to prejudice materially the success of the offering and distribution of the Notes or dealings in the Notes in the secondary market; or

(2) in the case of Notes sold pursuant to all other offerings:

(i) there shall have occurred, subsequent to the date of such agreement, any material adverse change in or affecting the financial, economic, political or other condition, or foreign exchange controls, of Mexico otherwise than as set forth in or contemplated by the Prospectus the effect of which is, in the reasonable judgment of such Agent, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of such Notes,

or there shall have occurred, subsequent to the date of such agreement, any prospective material adverse change in or affecting the financial, economic, political or other condition, or foreign exchange controls, of Mexico, otherwise than as set forth in or contemplated by the Prospectus, that, in the reasonable judgment of such Agent, has had so material and adverse an impact on the market for Mexico’s securities as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of such Notes;

(ii) there shall have been, subsequent to the date of such agreement, (x) any downgrading in the rating accorded Mexico’s debt securities by Standard & Poor’s Corporation or, in the event Standard & Poor’s Corporation is no longer rating the debt securities of Mexico, another nationally recognized statistical rating agency as reasonably agreed upon by Mexico and the Agents or (y) any public announcement that the rating of any of Mexico’s debt securities is under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications, by Standard & Poor’s Corporation or, such other rating agency, as aforesaid, except that if the applicable Terms Agreement so specifies, this Section VIII(b)(2)(ii)(y) will not apply;

(iii) trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such Exchange;

(iv) trading of any securities of Mexico shall have been formally suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market outside Mexico;

(v) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York or Mexico shall have been declared by either United States or New York State authorities or authorities of Mexico, respectively;

(vi) a material disruption of the settlement or clearance of debt securities in the United States, Europe or Mexico shall occur and continue until at least the business day preceding the applicable Settlement Date, and such event shall make it impractical to proceed with the delivery of such Notes; or

(vii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or Mexico or the declaration by the United States or Mexico of a national emergency or war or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the reasonable judgment of the such Agent, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of such Notes as contemplated by the Prospectus.

(c) The termination of this Agreement shall not require termination of any agreement by the Purchasing Agent to purchase Notes as agent, and the termination of any such agreement shall not require termination of this Agreement.

(d) If this Agreement is terminated, Section VII and Section XII hereof shall survive and shall remain in effect; provided that if at the time of termination of this Agreement an offer to purchase Notes has been accepted by Mexico but the time of delivery to the Purchasing Agent of such Notes has not occurred, the provisions of all of Section IV, Section II(b) and Section III shall also survive with respect to such Notes until time of delivery. In the event of such termination, no party shall have any liability to the other party hereto, except as provided in the second paragraph of Section II(a), Section IV(k), Section VII and this Section VIII(d). The respective representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements of Mexico and its officers and of you set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent or any controlling person of any Agent, or by or on behalf of Mexico, and shall survive each delivery of and payment for any of the Notes.

From time to time Mexico may request an increase of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes that may be issued under this Agreement and the Fiscal Agency Agreement (the “Program Limit”) by delivering to the Fiscal Agent and each of the Agents a letter substantially in the form contained in Exhibit D hereto as well as a copy of a decree issued by the President of Mexico approving such increase. Ten days after the date of such letter, each Agent will be deemed to have given its consent to the increase in the Program Limit, whereupon all references in this Agreement, the Exhibits hereto and the Fiscal Agency Agreement to the Program Limit shall be to the Program Limit as so increased.

IX. Notices.

Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all statements, requests, notices and advices hereunder shall be in writing, or by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing, and if to an Agent shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered in person or sent by telex, facsimile transmission (confirmed in writing), or registered mail to such Agent at its address, telex or facsimile number set forth on Annex A hereto and if to Mexico shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent by telex, facsimile transmission (confirmed in writing) or courier to Mexico at the address specified below.

or at such other address as such party may designate from time to time by notice duly given in accordance with the terms of this Section.

X. Successors.

This Agreement shall be binding upon the Agents and Mexico, and inure solely to the benefit of the Agents and Mexico and any other person expressly entitled to indemnification hereunder and the respective personal representatives, successors and assigns of each, and no other person shall acquire or have any rights under or by virtue of this Agreement.

XI. No Fiduciary Duty

Mexico acknowledges and agrees that: (i) each purchase and sale of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the offering prices of the Notes and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between Mexico, on the one hand, and the several Agents, on the other hand, and Mexico is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Agent is, has been, and will be acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor or fiduciary of Mexico, or its affiliates, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Agent has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Mexico with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Agent has advised or is currently advising Mexico on other matters); and (iv) the several Agents and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Mexico, and the several Agents have no obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory or fiduciary relationship.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between Mexico and the several Agents, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. Mexico hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that Mexico may have against the several Agents with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

XII. Applicable Law; Appointment of Agent for Service;
English Documents; Counterparts.

This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York, except that all matters governing authorization and execution of this Agreement by Mexico will be governed by the law of Mexico.

Mexico hereby appoints its Consul General in New York City and his successors as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) upon whom process may be served in any

action by any Agent, or by any persons controlling such Agent, arising out of or based upon this Agreement which may be instituted in any state or federal court in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (the “Specified Courts”). Each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the Specified Courts in respect of any such action, irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action in the Specified Courts and waives any right to which it may be entitled on account of residence or domicile. Mexico will maintain at all times in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, a person acting as or discharging the function of Consul General as long as any of the Notes remain outstanding or, if such person shall not be maintained, Mexico will appoint CT Corporation System to act as its process agent as provided herein. Mexico will take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment or appointments in full force and effect as aforesaid. Service of process upon the Authorized Agent at 00 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, and written notice of such service mailed or delivered to Mexico at its address set forth in Section IX hereof shall be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon Mexico. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such action may be instituted in any competent court in Mexico. Mexico hereby irrevocably waives any immunity from jurisdiction to which it might otherwise be entitled (including sovereign immunity and immunity from pre-judgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and execution) in any such action in the Specified Courts or in any competent court in Mexico, except that under Article 4 of the Federal Code of Civil Procedure of Mexico attachment prior to judgment or attachment in aid of execution will not be enforced by Mexican courts against property of Mexico.

All documents to be delivered under Section VI of this Agreement by Mexico shall be in the English language or accompanied by an English translation.

This Agreement may be executed by each of the parties hereto in any number of counterparts, and by each of the parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts, when so executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. Facsimile signatures shall be deemed original signatures.

[THE REMAINDER OF THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK]

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and return to us a counterpart hereof, and upon acceptance hereof by you, this letter and such acceptance hereof shall constitute a binding agreement between Mexico and you.

INTERNOTES

DUE NINE MONTHS OR MORE FROM DATE OF ISSUE

ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES

InterNotes^{^Ò}, due nine months or more from date of issue (the “Notes”) may be offered on a continuing basis by the United Mexican States (“Mexico”). The Notes will be offered by Incapital LLC (the “Purchasing Agent”), Incapital Europe Limited, which shall act as the coordinator for issuances and sales of Notes to be made outside the United States (the “Arranger”), Banc of America Securities LLC, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx & Co., Inc., Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Limited, Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx & Co., L.P., Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx International, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. Incorporated, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. International Limited, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Associates, Inc., RBC Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, UBS Financial Services Inc., UBS Limited and Wachovia Securities, LLC (collectively with the Purchasing Agent and the Arranger, the “Agents”) pursuant to a Selling Agent Agreement among Mexico and the Agents dated as of the date hereof (the “Selling Agent Agreement”) and one or more terms agreements substantially in the form attached to the Selling Agent Agreement as Exhibit C (each, a “Terms Agreement”).

Notes offered and sold in the United States will be purchased by the Purchasing Agent, as agent, for resale by the Purchasing Agent (and by any Agent that purchases Notes from the Purchasing Agent) (i) directly to customers of the Agents or (ii) to selected broker-dealers (the “Selected Dealers”) for distribution to their customers pursuant to a Master Selected Dealer Agreement (a “Dealers Agreement”). The Notes that will be offered in the United States have been registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, Notes will be offered outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).

The Bank of New York is the fiscal agent (the “Fiscal Agent”) under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2006, 2006, between Mexico and the Fiscal Agent (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), covering the Notes. Pursuant to the terms of the Fiscal Agency Agreement, The Bank of New York also will serve as the principal paying agent, calculation

agent, transfer agent and exchange rate agent. The Bank of New York (Luxembourg) S.A. will serve as the Luxembourg paying agent and transfer agent.

Unless otherwise agreed by the Agents and Mexico, Notes will be purchased by the Purchasing Agent as agent as set forth herein. Such purchases will be made in accordance with terms agreed upon by the Purchasing Agent and Mexico, which terms shall be set forth in a Terms Agreement and a pricing supplement or, in the case of Notes listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the “LSE”) a final terms (both a pricing supplement and a final terms are referred to herein as a “Pricing Supplement”).

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement, each tranche of Notes will be issued in book-entry form only and represented by one or more global securities, in registered or bearer form (each, a “Global Note”); provided that Notes in bearer form may not be offered or sold to persons in the United States or to United States Persons (as defined in, and subject to the further restrictions set forth in, Section I(b)(5) of the Selling Agent Agreement. Global Notes representing Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be held by the Fiscal Agent, as custodian for the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and recorded in the book entry system maintained by DTC. Global Notes representing Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be deposited with the Fiscal Agent, as common depositary for Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. as operator of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream, Luxembourg”) (each, a “clearing system”) and held by the Fiscal Agent. Each Global Note will have the annual interest rate, maturity and other terms set forth in the relevant Pricing Supplement. Owners of beneficial interests in a Global Note will be entitled to physical delivery of Notes issued in certificated form equal in principal amount to their respective beneficial interests only upon certain limited circumstances described in the Fiscal Agency Agreement.

Administrative procedures and specific terms of offerings of Notes denominated in U.S. dollars are explained in Part I below. Administrative procedures and specific terms of offerings of Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are explained in Part II below. Administrative and record-keeping responsibilities will be handled for Mexico by the Public Credit Unit of the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit. Mexico will advise the Agents and the Fiscal Agent in writing of those persons handling administrative responsibilities with whom the Agents and the Fiscal Agent are to communicate regarding offers to purchase Notes and the details of their delivery.

Notes will be issued in accordance with the administrative procedures set forth herein. To the extent the procedures set forth below conflict with or omit certain of the provisions of the Notes, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Selling Agent Agreement or information set forth in the Prospectus (as defined in the Selling Agent Agreement) or the Pricing Supplement (together referred to herein as the “Prospectus”), the relevant provisions of the Notes, the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Selling Agent Agreement and the information set forth in the Prospectus shall control. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Selling Agent Agreement, the Prospectus in the form most recently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement.

B-2

Subject to Mexico’s representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Selling Agent Agreement as they relate to prior solicitations or sales of Notes, Mexico may instruct the Purchasing Agent to instruct the Agents to suspend at any time, for any period of time or permanently, the solicitation of orders to purchase Notes. Upon receipt of such instructions (which may be given orally), each Agent will forthwith suspend solicitation until such time as Mexico has advised it that solicitation of purchases may be resumed.

In the event that at the time Mexico suspends solicitation of purchases there shall be any orders outstanding for settlement, Mexico will promptly advise the Purchasing Agent, the Agents and the Fiscal Agent whether such orders may be settled and whether copies of the Prospectus as in effect at the time of the suspension may be delivered in connection with the settlement of such orders. Mexico will have the sole responsibility for such decision and for any arrangements which may be made in the event that Mexico determines that such orders may not be settled or that copies of such Prospectus may not be so delivered.

If Mexico decides to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, it will promptly advise the Purchasing Agent and the Agents and furnish the Purchasing Agent and the Fiscal Agent with the proposed amendment or supplement and with such certificates and opinions as are required, all to the extent required by and in accordance with the terms of the Selling Agent Agreement. Subject to the provisions of the Selling Agent Agreement, Mexico may file with the Commission any supplement to the Prospectus relating to the Notes. Mexico will provide the Purchasing Agent and the Fiscal Agent with copies of any such supplement, and confirm to the Purchasing Agent that such supplement has been filed with the Commission.

Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Fiscal Agent to risk or expend its own funds in connection with any payment to Mexico, or the Agents or the purchasers, it being understood by all parties that payments made by the Fiscal Agent to either Mexico or the Agents shall be made only to the extent that funds are provided to the Fiscal Agent for such purpose.

Mexico shall have the sole right to approve the form and substance of any advertising an Agent may initiate in connection with such Agent’s solicitation to purchase the Notes. The expense of such advertising will be solely the responsibility of such Agent, unless otherwise agreed to by Mexico.

Part I
Administrative Procedures for Notes Denominated in U.S. Dollars

In connection with the qualification of Notes for eligibility in the book-entry system maintained by DTC, the Fiscal Agent will perform the custodial, document control and administrative functions described below, in accordance with its obligations under the Letter of Representations from Mexico and the Fiscal Agent to DTC, dated February 13, 2006 and its obligations as a participant in DTC, including DTC’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System (“SDFS”). The procedures set forth below may be modified in compliance with DTC’s then-applicable procedures and upon agreement by Mexico, the Fiscal Agent and the Purchasing Agent. Notes for which interest is calculated on the basis of a fixed interest rate, which may be zero, are referred to herein as “Fixed Rate Notes.” Notes for which interest is calculated on the basis of a floating interest rate are referred to herein as “Floating Rate Notes.”

B-3


Maturities:		Each Note will mature on a date (the “Maturity Date”) not less than nine months after the date of its original issuance. Notes will mature on any date selected by the initial purchaser and agreed to by Mexico. “Maturity” when used with respect to any Note means the date on which the outstanding principal amount of such Note becomes due and payable in full in accordance with its terms, whether at its Maturity Date or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, repayment or otherwise.

Issuance:		All Notes having the same terms will be represented initially by a single Global Note. Each Global Note will be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Fiscal Agent.

		Each Global Note will bear an original issue date (the “Original Issue Date”). The Original Issue Date shall remain the same for all Notes subsequently issued upon transfer, exchange or substitution of an original Note regardless of their dates of authentication.

Identification Numbers:		Mexico has received from the CUSIP Service Bureau (the “CUSIP Service Bureau”) of Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“Standard & Poor’s”) one series of CUSIP numbers consisting of approximately 900 CUSIP numbers for future assignment to Global Notes. Mexico will provide the Purchasing Agent, DTC and the Fiscal Agent with a list of such CUSIP numbers. On behalf of Mexico, the Purchasing Agent will assign CUSIP numbers as described below under Settlement Procedure “B”. DTC will notify the CUSIP Service Bureau periodically of the CUSIP numbers that Mexico has assigned to Global Notes. Mexico will reserve additional CUSIP numbers when necessary for assignment to Global Notes and will provide the Purchasing Agent, the Fiscal Agent and DTC with the list of additional CUSIP numbers so obtained.

Registration:		Each Global Note will be issued only in fully registered form without coupons. Unless otherwise specified by DTC, each Global Note will be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC, on the Note Register maintained under the Fiscal Agency Agreement by the Fiscal Agent. The beneficial owner of a Note (or one or more indirect participants in DTC designated by such owner) will designate one or more participants in DTC (with respect to such Note, the “Participants”) to act as agent or agents for such owner in connection with the book-entry system maintained by DTC, and DTC will record in book-entry form, in accordance with instructions provided by such Participants, a credit balance with respect to such beneficial owner of such Note in the account of such Participants. The ownership interest of such beneficial owner in such Note will be recorded through the records of such Participants or through the separate records of such Participants or one or more indirect

B-4


		participants in DTC.

Transfers:		Transfers of interests in a Global Note will be accomplished by book entries made by DTC and, in turn, by Participants (and in certain cases, one or more indirect participants in DTC) acting on behalf of beneficial transferors and transferees of such interests.

Exchanges:		The Fiscal Agent, at Mexico’s request, may deliver to DTC and the CUSIP Service Bureau at any time a written notice of consolidation specifying (a) the CUSIP numbers of two or more Global Notes outstanding on such date that represent Notes having the same terms (except that Issue Dates need not be the same) and for which interest, if any, has been paid to the same date and which otherwise constitute Notes of the same series and tenor under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, (b) a date, occurring at least 30 days after such written notice is delivered and at least 30 days before the next Interest Payment Date, if any, for the related Notes, on which such Global Notes shall be exchanged for a single replacement Global Note; and (c) a new CUSIP number, obtained from Mexico, to be assigned to such replacement Global Note. Upon receipt of such a notice, DTC will send to its participants and the Fiscal Agent a written reorganization notice to the effect that such exchange will occur on such date. Prior to the specified exchange date, the Fiscal Agent will deliver to the CUSIP Service Bureau written notice setting forth such exchange date and the new CUSIP number and stating that, as of such exchange date, the CUSIP numbers of the Global Notes to be exchanged will no longer be valid. On the specified exchange date, the Fiscal Agent will exchange such Global Notes for a single Global Note bearing the new CUSIP number and the CUSIP numbers of the exchanged Global Notes will, in accordance with CUSIP Service Bureau procedures, be cancelled and not immediately reassigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Global Notes to be exchanged exceed $500,000,000 in aggregate principal or face amount, one replacement Global Note will be authenticated and issued to represent each $500,000,000 of principal or face amount of the exchanged Global Notes and an additional Global Note will be authenticated and issued to represent any remaining principal amount of such Global Notes (see “Denominations” below).

Denominations:		Unless otherwise agreed by Mexico and provided in the applicable Pricing Supplement, Notes will be issued in denominations of $2,000 or more (and greater integral multiples of $1,000). Global Notes will be denominated in principal or face amounts not in excess of $500,000,000 or any other limit set by the DTC (the “Permitted Amount”). If one or more Notes having an aggregate principal or face amount in excess of the Permitted Amount would,

B-5


		but for the preceding sentence, be represented by a single Global Note, then one Global Note will be issued to represent each Permitted Amount principal or face amount of such Note or Notes and an additional Global Note will be issued to represent any remaining principal amount of such Note or Notes. In such case, each of the Global Notes representing such Note or Notes shall be assigned the same CUSIP number.

Issue Price:		Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Pricing Supplement, each Note will be issued at the percentage of principal amount specified in the Prospectus relating to such Note.

Interest:		General. Each Note will bear interest at either a fixed rate or a floating rate. Interest on each Note will accrue in accordance with the terms thereof and the Prospectus Supplement and the applicable Pricing Supplement.

		Each pending deposit message described under Settlement Procedure “E” below will be routed to Standard & Poor’s Corporation, which will use the message to include certain information regarding the related Notes in the appropriate daily bond report published by Standard & Poor’s Corporation.

		Each Note will bear interest from, and including, its Issue Date at the rate, or in accordance with the interest rate basis, set forth thereon and in the applicable Pricing Supplement until the principal amount thereof is paid, or made available for payment, in full.

		Interest on each Note will be payable on the Interest Payment Dates specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement and at Maturity (or on the date of redemption or repayment if a Note is repurchased by Mexico prior to maturity pursuant to mandatory or optional redemption or repayment provisions or the Survivor’s Option).

		The interest rates Mexico will agree to pay on newly-issued Notes are subject to change without notice by Mexico from time to time, but no such change will affect any Notes already issued or as to which an offer to purchase has been accepted by Mexico.

Payments of Principal and Interest:		Payments of Interest. On or about two weeks prior to each Interest Payment Date (or as soon thereafter as is practicable), the Fiscal Agent will deliver to Mexico and DTC a written notice specifying the issue description, the amount of interest, if any, to be paid on each Global Note on the following Interest Payment Date (other than an Interest Payment Date coinciding with a Maturity Date) and the total of such amounts. DTC will confirm the amount payable on each Global Note on such Interest Payment Date by reference to the

B-6


		daily bond reports published by Standard & Poor’s. On such Interest Payment Date, Mexico will pay to the Fiscal Agent, and the Fiscal Agent in turn will pay to DTC, such total amount of interest due (other than on the Maturity Date), at the times and in the manner set forth below under “Manner of Payment”.

		Payments on the Maturity Date. On or about two weeks prior to the relevant Maturity Date, the Fiscal Agent will deliver to Mexico and DTC a written letter setting forth the principal, premium, if any, and interest to be paid on each Global Note representing Notes maturing or subject to redemption (pursuant to a sinking fund or otherwise) or repayment (“Maturity”) on the following Maturity Date. The Fiscal Agent, Mexico and DTC will confirm the amounts of such principal, premium, if any, and interest payments with respect to each Global Note on or about the fifth Business Day preceding the Maturity Date of such Global Note. On the Maturity Date, Mexico will pay to the Fiscal Agent, and the Fiscal Agent in turn will pay to DTC, the principal amount of such Global Note, together with interest and premium, if any, due on such Maturity Date, at the times and in the manner set forth below under “Manner of Payment”. Promptly after payment to DTC of the principal and interest due on the Maturity Date of such Global Note and all other Notes represented by such Global Note, the Fiscal Agent will cancel and destroy such Global Note in accordance with the Fiscal Agency Agreement and so advise Mexico.

		Manner of Payment. The total amount of any principal, premium, if any, and interest due on Global Notes on any Interest Payment Date or at Maturity shall be paid by Mexico to the Fiscal Agent in immediately available funds, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City Time, on such date. Mexico will make such payment on such Global Notes in the currency in which the Notes are denominated to an account specified by the Fiscal Agent. Following such payment and no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, or as soon as possible thereafter, the Fiscal Agent will make payment to DTC in accordance with existing arrangements between DTC and the Fiscal Agent, in funds available for immediate use by DTC, each payment of interest, principal and premium, if any, due on a Global Note on such date; provided, that if payment by Mexico is made later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, payment by the Fiscal Agent shall be made as soon thereafter as is practicable. On each Interest Payment Date (other than on the Maturity Date) the Fiscal Agent will pay DTC such interest payments in same-day funds in accordance with existing arrangements between the Fiscal Agent and DTC. Thereafter, on each such date, DTC will pay, in accordance with its SDFS operating procedures then in effect, such

B-7


		amounts in funds available for immediate use to the respective Participants with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective holdings in principal amount of beneficial interest in such Global Note as are recorded in the book-entry system maintained by DTC. Neither Mexico nor the Fiscal Agent shall have any direct responsibility or liability for the payment by DTC of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes to such Participants.

		Withholding Taxes. Mexico shall make all payments to the Fiscal Agent without withholding or deduction of Mexican taxes, as provided, and subject to the exceptions set forth, in the Prospectus. The amount of any taxes required under applicable law to be withheld from any interest payment on a Note will be determined and withheld by the Participant, indirect participant in DTC or other person responsible for forwarding payments and materials directly to the beneficial owner of such Note.

Purchase of Notes by the Purchasing Agent:		Unless otherwise agreed by the Agents and Mexico, Notes offered from time to time by Mexico will be purchased by the Purchasing Agent as agent for subsequent resale to the Agents and Selected Dealers party to the Master Selected Dealer Agreement, each of whom will purchase as principal.

Acceptance and Rejection of Orders:		Unless otherwise agreed by Mexico and the Purchasing Agent, Mexico has the sole right to accept orders to purchase Notes and may reject any such order in whole or in part. Unless otherwise instructed by Mexico, the Purchasing Agent will promptly advise Mexico by telephone of all offers to purchase Notes received by it, other than those rejected by it in whole or in part in the reasonable exercise of its discretion. No order for less than $2,000 principal amount of Notes will be accepted, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

		Upon receipt of a completed and executed Terms Agreement from the Purchasing Agent, Mexico will (i) promptly execute and return such Terms Agreement to the Purchasing Agent or (ii) inform the Purchasing Agent that its offer to purchase the Notes or a particular tranche has been rejected, in whole or in part. The Purchasing Agent will thereafter promptly inform the Agents and participating Selected Dealers of the action taken by Mexico.

Preparation of Pricing Supplement:		If any offer to purchase a Note is accepted by or on behalf of Mexico, the Purchasing Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to send by email or telecopy a draft Pricing Supplement (substantially in the form attached to the Selling Agent Agreement as Exhibit E or Exhibit F) to Mexico and to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP reflecting the terms of such Note by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time)

on the applicable Trade Day. Mexico shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver any comments to such Pricing Supplement by email or telecopy to the Purchasing Agent and the Fiscal Agent by 5:00 p.m. (New York City Time) on the applicable Trade Day. The Purchasing Agent will file such Pricing Supplement with the Commission on behalf of, and after review and approval by, Mexico in accordance with the applicable paragraph of Rule 424(b) under the Act. The Purchasing Agent shall use its reasonable best efforts to send such Pricing Supplement and the Prospectus by email or telecopy or overnight express (for delivery by the close of business on the applicable Trade Day, but in no event later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately following the applicable Trade Day and no earlier than the earlier of (i) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Trade Date or (ii) such time after which the Purchasing Agent shall have incorporated the comments of Mexico, if any, to the Pricing Supplement, to each Agent (or other Selected Dealer) which made or presented the offer to purchase the applicable Note and the Fiscal Agent at the following applicable address:

Each Agent and Selected Dealer will confirm the purchase of each Note to the purchaser thereof either by transmitting to the Participant to whose account such Note has been credited a confirmation order through DTC’s Participant Terminal System or by mailing a written confirmation to such purchaser. In all cases the Prospectus as most recently amended or supplemented must accompany or precede such confirmation.

	N.		On a day that is a Business Day, the Fiscal Agent will send, by facsimile or electronic transmission, to Mexico a statement setting forth the principal amount of Notes outstanding as of that date under the Fiscal Agency Agreement and setting forth the CUSIP number(s) assigned to, and a brief description of, any orders which Mexico has

advised the Fiscal Agent but which have not yet been settled.


Settlement Procedures Timetable:		In the event of a purchase of Notes by the Purchasing Agent, as agent, appropriate Settlement details, if different from those set forth below will be set forth in the applicable Terms Agreement to be entered into between the Purchasing Agent and Mexico pursuant to the Selling Agent Agreement.

		Settlement Procedures “A” through “N” shall be completed as soon as possible but not later than the respective times (New York City time) set forth below:

		The Prospectus as most recently amended or supplemented must accompany or precede any written confirmation given to the customer (Settlement Procedure “M”). Settlement Procedure “J” is

B-17


		subject to extension in accordance with any extension Fedwire closing deadlines and in the other events specified in the SDFS operating procedures in effect on the Settlement Date.

		If Settlement of a Note is rescheduled or cancelled, Mexico will notify the Fiscal Agent and the Fiscal Agent will deliver to DTC, through DTC’s Participant Terminal System, a cancellation message to such effect by no later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled Settlement Date.

Failure to Settle:		If the Fiscal Agent fails to enter an SDFS deliver order with respect to a Note pursuant to Settlement Procedure “H”, the Fiscal Agent may deliver to DTC, through DTC’s Participant Terminal System, as soon as practicable a withdrawal message instructing DTC to debit such Note to the participant account of the Fiscal Agent maintained at DTC. DTC will process the withdrawal message, provided that such participant account contains Notes having the same terms and having a principal amount that is at least equal to the principal amount of such Note to be debited. If withdrawal messages are processed with respect to all the Notes issued or to be issued represented by a Global Note, the Fiscal Agent will cancel such Global Note in accordance with the Fiscal Agency Agreement, make appropriate entries in its records and so advise Mexico. The CUSIP number assigned to such Global Note shall, in accordance with CUSIP Service Bureau procedures, be cancelled and not immediately reassigned. If withdrawal messages are processed with respect to one or more, but not all, of the Notes represented by a Global Note, the Fiscal Agent will exchange such Global Note for two Global Notes, one of which shall represent such Notes and shall be cancelled immediately after issuance, and the other of which shall represent the remaining Notes previously represented by the surrendered Global Note and shall bear the CUSIP number of the surrendered Global Note. If the purchase price for any Note is not timely paid to the Participants with respect to such Note by the beneficial purchaser thereof (or a person, including an indirect participant in DTC, acting on behalf of such purchaser), such Participants and, in turn, the related Agent may enter SDFS deliver orders through DTC’s participant Terminal System reversing the orders entered pursuant to Settlement Procedures “H” and “I”, respectively. Thereafter, the Fiscal Agent will deliver the withdrawal message and take the related actions described in the preceding paragraph.

		Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon any failure to settle with respect to a Note, DTC may take any actions in accordance with its SDFS operating procedures then in effect. In the event of a failure

B-18


		to settle with respect to one or more, but not all, of Notes that were to have been represented by a Global Note, the Fiscal Agent will provide, in accordance with Settlement Procedures “D”, “F” and “G”, for the authentication and issuance of a Global Note representing the other Notes to have been represented by such Global Note and will make appropriate entries in its records.

B-19

Part II
Administrative Procedures for Notes Denominated in a Currency
Other than U.S. Dollars

In connection with the qualification of Notes for eligibility in the book-entry systems maintained by each of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, the Fiscal Agent will perform the custodial, document control and administrative functions described below, in accordance with its obligations under the applicable rules of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg. The procedures set forth below may be modified in compliance with Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg’s then-applicable procedures and upon agreement by Mexico, the Fiscal Agent, the Purchasing Agent and the Arranger.


Maturities:		Each Note will mature on the Maturity Date specified in the Pricing Supplement.

Issuance:		All Notes having the same terms will be represented initially by a single Global Note. Each Global Note will be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Fiscal Agent.

		Each Global Note will bear an Original Issue Date. The Original Issue Date shall remain the same for all Notes subsequently issued upon transfer, exchange or substitution of an original Note regardless of their dates of authentication.

Identification Numbers:		The Arranger will obtain from Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, ISINs for each Global Note. The Arranger will provide Mexico, the Purchasing Agent and the Fiscal Agent with a list of such ISINs. On behalf of Mexico, the Arranger will assign ISINs as described below under Settlement Procedure “B”.

Form of Global Notes:		Global Notes may be issued in bearer (“Bearer Notes”) or registered (“Registered Notes”) form; provided that in no event shall Registered Notes be exchangeable for Bearer Notes.

Bearer Notes:		Each Bearer Note represented by a temporary global bearer note that will be exchangeable for interests in a permanent global bearer note, provided that neither the temporary global bearer note nor any portion thereof may be exchanged for an interest in the permanent global bearer note until (a) on or after the 40^th day following the issue date and (b) with respect to each beneficial interest in the portion of such temporary global bearer note to be exchanged, (i) the participant in Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, through

B-20


		which such beneficial interest is held (the “Participant”) and (ii) Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, has delivered a certification, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) in the form required by the Fiscal Agency Agreement for such purpose, that the beneficial owner is not a U.S. person, other than certain financial institutions.

Registered Notes:		Each Registered Note will be represented by a Global Note registered in the name of (or in the name of a nominee of) a common depositary for Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, on the Note Register maintained under the Fiscal Agent Agreement. The beneficial owner of a Note (or one or more indirect participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, designated by such owner) will designate one or more Participants to act as agent or agents for such owner in connection with the book-entry system maintained by the applicable clearing system and such clearing system will record in book-entry form, in accordance with instructions provided by such Participants, a credit balance with respect to such beneficial owner of such Note in the account of such Participants. The ownership interest of such beneficial owner in such Note will be recorded through the records of such Participants or through separate records of such Participants or one or more indirect participant in Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg.

Transfers:		Transfers of interests in a Global Note will be accomplished by book entries made by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, and, in turn, by Participants (and in certain cases, one or more indirect participants in Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be) acting on behalf of beneficial transferors and transferees of such interests.

Exchanges:		The Fiscal Agent, at Mexico’s request, may deliver to Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg at any time a written notice of consolidation specifying (a) the ISIN and common code of two or more Global Notes outstanding on such date that represent Notes having the same terms (except that Issue Dates need not be the same) and for which interest, if any, has been paid to the same date and which otherwise constitute Notes of the same series and tenor under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, (b) a date, occurring at least 30 days after

B-21


		such written notice is delivered and at least 30 days before the next Interest Payment Date, if any, for the related Notes, on which such Global Notes shall be exchanged for a single replacement Global Note; and (c) a new ISIN and common code, obtained from the Arranger, to be assigned to such replacement Global Note; provided that in no event may Bearer Notes be consolidated with Registered Notes. Upon receipt of such a notice, Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg will send to its participants and the Fiscal Agent a written reorganization notice to the effect that such exchange will occur on such date. Prior to the specified exchange date, the Fiscal Agent will deliver to Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg written notice setting forth such exchange date and the new ISIN and common code and stating that, as of such exchange date, the ISIN and common code of the Global Notes to be exchanged will no longer be valid. On the specified exchange date, the Fiscal Agent will exchange such Global Notes for a single Global Note bearing the new ISIN and common code and the ISIN and common code of the exchanged Global Notes will, in accordance with Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg procedures, be cancelled and not immediately reassigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Global Notes to be exchanged exceed the Permitted Amount (as defined below), one replacement Global Note will be authenticated and issued to represent the amount of such limit and greater integral multiples of such limit in principal or face amount of the exchanged Global Notes and an additional Global Note will be authenticated and issued to represent any remaining principal amount of such Global Notes (see “Denominations” below).

Denominations:		Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Pricing Supplement, Notes will be issued in denominations of €1,000 (and greater integral multiples of €1,000), or the approximate equivalent in the Specified Currency. Global Notes will be denominated in principal or face amounts not in excess of any limit set by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg (the “Permitted Amount”). If one or more Notes having an aggregate principal or face amount in excess of the Permitted Amount would, but for the preceding sentence, be represented by a single Global Note, then one Global Note will be issued to represent each Permitted Amount principal or face amount of such Note or Notes and an additional Global Note will be

B-22


		issued to represent any remaining principal amount of such Note or Notes. In such case, each of the Global Notes representing such Note or Notes shall be assigned the same ISIN.

Issue Price:		Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Pricing Supplement, each Note will be issued at the percentage of principal amount specified in the Prospectus relating to such Note.

Interest:		General. Each Note will bear interest at either a fixed rate or a floating rate. Interest on each Note will accrue in accordance with the terms thereof and the Prospectus Supplement and the applicable Pricing Supplement.

		Each Note will bear interest from, and including, its Issue Date at the rate, or in accordance with the interest rate basis, set forth thereon and in the applicable Pricing Supplement until the principal amount thereof is paid, or made available for payment, in full.

		Interest on each Note will be payable on the Interest Payment Dates specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement and at Maturity (or on the date of redemption or repayment if a Note is repurchased by Mexico prior to maturity pursuant to mandatory or optional redemption or repayment provisions).

		The interest rates Mexico will agree to pay on newly-issued Notes are subject to change without notice by Mexico from time to time, but no such change will affect any Notes already issued or as to which an offer to purchase has been accepted by Mexico.

Payments of Principal and Interest:		Payments of Interest. On or about two weeks prior to each Interest Payment Date (or as soon thereafter as is practicable), the Fiscal Agent will deliver to Mexico and Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg a written notice specifying the issue description, the amount of interest, if any, to be paid on each Global Note on the following Interest Payment Date (other than an Interest Payment Date coinciding with a Maturity Date) and the total of such amounts. On such Interest Payment Date, Mexico will pay to the Fiscal Agent, and the Fiscal Agent in turn will pay to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, such total amount of interest due (other than on the Maturity Date), at the times and in the manner set

B-23


		forth below under “Manner of Payment”.

		Payments on the Maturity Date. On or about two weeks prior to the relevant Maturity Date, the Fiscal Agent will deliver to Mexico and Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg a written letter setting forth the principal, premium, if any, and interest to be paid on each Global Note representing Notes maturing or subject to redemption (pursuant to a sinking fund or otherwise) or repayment (“Maturity”) on the Maturity Date. The Fiscal Agent and Mexico will confirm the amounts of such principal, premium, if any, and interest payments with respect to each Global Note on or about the fifth Business Day preceding the Maturity Date of such Global Note. On the Maturity Date, Mexico will pay to the Fiscal Agent, and the Fiscal Agent in turn will pay to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, the principal amount of such Global Note, together with interest and premium, if any, due on such Maturity Date, at the times and in the manner set forth below under “Manner of Payment”. Promptly after payment to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, of the principal and interest due on the Maturity Date of such Global Note and all other Notes represented by such Global Note, the Fiscal Agent will cancel and destroy such Global Note in accordance with the Fiscal Agency Agreement and so advise Mexico.

		Manner of Payment. The total amount of any principal, premium, if any, and interest due on Global Notes on any Interest Payment Date or at Maturity shall be paid by Mexico to the Fiscal Agent in immediately available funds no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date. Mexico will make such payment on such Global Notes in the currency in which such Notes are denominated to an account specified by the Fiscal Agent. Following such payment and no later than 10:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be, or as soon as possible thereafter, the Fiscal Agent will make payment to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, in accordance with existing arrangements between each such clearing system and the Fiscal Agent, in funds available for immediate use by such clearing system, each payment of interest, principal and premium, if any, due on a Global Note on such date; provided, that if payment by Mexico is made later than 10:00 a.m.,

B-24


		London time, payment by the Fiscal Agent shall be made as soon thereafter as is practicable. On each Interest Payment Date (other than on the Maturity Date) the Fiscal Agent will pay Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, such interest payments in same-day funds in accordance with existing arrangements between the Fiscal Agent and each such clearing system. Thereafter, on each such date, each clearing system, will pay, in accordance with their same-day fund settlement operating procedures then in effect, such amounts in funds available for immediate use to the respective Participants with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective holdings in principal amount of beneficial interest in such Global Note as are recorded in the book-entry system maintained by such clearing system. Neither Mexico nor the Fiscal Agent shall have any direct responsibility or liability for the payment by a clearing system of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes to such Participants.

		Withholding Taxes. Mexico shall make all payments to the Fiscal Agent without withholding or deduction of Mexican taxes, as provided, and subject to the exceptions set forth, in the Prospectus. The amount of any taxes required under applicable law to be withheld from any interest payment on a Note will be determined and withheld by the Participant or other person responsible for forwarding payments and materials directly to the beneficial owner of such Note.

Resale of Notes by the Purchasing Agent:		Unless otherwise agreed by the Agents and Mexico, Notes offered from time to time by Mexico will be purchased by the Purchasing Agent as agent, who will resell such Notes to the Arranger for subsequent resale to the other Agents and Selected Dealers party to the Members Agreement, each of whom will purchase as principal.

Acceptance and Rejection of Orders:		Unless otherwise agreed by Mexico and the Arranger, Mexico has the sole right to accept orders to purchase Notes and may reject any such order in whole or in part. Unless otherwise instructed by Mexico, the Arranger will promptly advise Mexico by telephone of all offers to purchase Notes received by it, other than those rejected by it in whole or in part in the reasonable exercise of its discretion. No order for less than €1,000 principal amount of Notes (or its equivalent in the relevant

B-25


	Specified Currency) will be accepted, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Pricing Supplement.

Preparation of Pricing Supplement:	If any offer to purchase a Note is accepted by or on behalf of Mexico, the Arranger will use its reasonable best efforts to send by email or telecopy a draft Pricing Supplement (substantially in the form attached to the Selling Agent Agreement as Exhibit E or Exhibit F) to Mexico and to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP reflecting the terms of such Note by 2:00 p.m. (London time) on the applicable Trade Day. Mexico shall use its reasonable best efforts to deliver any comments to such Pricing Supplement by email or telecopy to the Arranger and the Fiscal Agent by 5:00 p.m. (London Time) on the applicable Trade Day. The Arranger will make such Pricing Supplement and the Prospectus available on its website at xxx.xxxxxxxxxx.xxx and, if the Notes are to be listed on the LSE, will provide copies to the Luxembourg Agent.

Delivery of Confirmation to Purchaser by Presenting Agent:	For each offer to purchase a Note accepted by or on behalf of Mexico, the Arranger will confirm in writing with the Purchasing Agent and each Agent or Selected Dealer the terms of such Note, the amount being purchased by such Agent or Selected Dealer and other applicable details described above and delivery and payment instructions, with a copy to Mexico.

Settlement:	The receipt of immediately available funds by Mexico in payment for Notes and the authentication and issuance of the Global Note representing such Notes shall constitute “Settlement” with respect to such Note. All orders accepted by Mexico will be settled within three Business Days pursuant to the timetable for Settlement set forth below, unless Mexico and the purchaser agree to Settlement on another specified date, which date shall be specified upon acceptance of such offer; provided, however, in all cases Mexico will notify the Fiscal Agent on the date issuance instructions are given.

	Settlement Procedure “J” is subject to extension in accordance with any extension closing deadlines and in the other events specified in the same-day fund settlement operating procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, in effect on the Settlement Date.

	If Settlement of a Note is rescheduled or cancelled, the Fiscal Agent will deliver to Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, a cancellation message to such effect by no later than 2:00 p.m., London time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the scheduled Settlement Date.

Failure to Settle:	If the Fiscal Agent fails to instruct Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as applicable, with respect to a Note pursuant to Settlement Procedure “H”, the Fiscal Agent may deliver to such clearing system, as soon as practicable a withdrawal message instructing such clearing system to debit such Note to the participant account of the Fiscal Agent maintained at such clearing system. Such clearing system will process the withdrawal message, provided that such participant account contains Notes having the same terms and having a principal amount that is at least equal to the principal amount of such Note to be debited. If withdrawal messages are processed with respect to all the Notes issued or to be issued represented by a Global Note, the Fiscal Agent will cancel such Global Note in accordance with the Fiscal Agency Agreement, make appropriate entries in its records and so advise Mexico. The ISIN assigned to such Global Note shall, in accordance with Euroclear’s and Clearstream, Luxembourg’s procedures, be cancelled and not immediately reassigned.

Thereafter, the Fiscal Agent will deliver the withdrawal message and take the related actions described in the preceding paragraph.

		Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon any failure to settle with respect to a Note, Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, may take any actions in accordance with their respective same-day fund settlement operating procedures then in effect. In the event of a failure to settle with respect to one or more, but not all, of the Notes that were to have been represented by a Global Note, the Fiscal Agent will provide, in accordance with Settlement Procedures “C-2”, “G” and “H”, for the authentication and issuance of a Global Note representing the other Notes to have been represented by such Global Note and will make appropriate entries in its records.
