but only with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities that arise out of, or are based upon, Underwriter Information.
18
(c) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or
demand will be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either Section 7(a) hereof or Section 7(b) hereof, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) will promptly notify the person
against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not relieve it from any liability that it may have under Sections 7(a) and 7(b)
hereof, except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not
relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under Sections 7(a) and 7(b) hereof. If any such proceeding will be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it will have notified the Indemnifying
Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person will retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person
and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section 7 that the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and will pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such
proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person will have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel will be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person
and the Indemnified Person will have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person will have
reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include
both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying
Person will not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such
fees and expenses will be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Underwriters, their affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of the Underwriters will be designated in writing by the Representatives on the
behalf of the Underwriters, and any such separate firm for the Company and any control persons of the Company will be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person will not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected
without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees, subject to the provisions of this Section 7, to
indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person will have requested that an Indemnifying Person
reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this Section 7(c), the Indemnifying Person will be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is
entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person will not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No
Indemnifying Person will, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification or
contribution could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all
liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.
19
(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Sections 7(a) and 7(b) hereof is unavailable to an Indemnified Person
or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such Sections, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, will contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from
the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault
of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other will be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company from
the sale of the Securities and the total discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters in connection therewith, as provided in the Pricing Agreement, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company
on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other will be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
(e) Limitation on Liability. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 7(d) hereof. The amount paid or payable by an
Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 7(d) hereof will be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses incurred
by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event will any Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of
the amount by which the total discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.
20
(f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive and will not limit any rights or
remedies that may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.
8. Termination. The Pricing Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the Company, if after the execution and
delivery of the Pricing Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally will have been suspended or materially limited on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ market, the Mexican Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market in the
United States or Mexico or minimum prices will have been established on any of such exchanges or such market by such exchange or by any regulatory body having jurisdiction over such exchange or market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or
guaranteed by the Company will have been suspended on any exchange or the over-the-counter market in the United States or Mexico; (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States or Mexico will
have occurred; (iv) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities will have been declared by U.S. federal or New York State authorities or by Mexican authorities; (v) there will have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any
change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that in the judgment of the Representatives is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in
the manner contemplated by the Pricing Agreement and the Prospectus; (vi) any material adverse change or development involving a prospective material adverse change in taxation, exchange controls or other applicable law or regulation in the United
States or Mexico directly affecting the Securities or the imposition of restrictions on repatriation of remittances or interest payments or dividends from Mexico, the effect of which change or development on the financial markets of the United
States, Mexico or elsewhere is such as to make it inadvisable or impracticable to market the Securities; or (vii) there will have been such a material adverse change in U.S., Mexican or international monetary,
general economic, political or financial conditions as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, inadvisable to proceed with the payment for and delivery of the Securities.
21
9. Payment of Expenses.
(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by the Pricing Agreement are consummated or the Pricing Agreement is terminated, the Company will, subject to Section 9(b) hereof, pay or cause to be paid all fees, expenses and costs incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, (i) the costs
incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Securities and any documentary, stamp, transfer or similar taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation and/or printing of the
Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and the Prospectus (including any amendment or supplement thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the costs of reproducing and
distributing each of the Transaction Documents; (iv) the fees and expenses of U.S. and Mexican counsel to the Company; (v) the fees and expenses of the independent public accountants of the Company; (vi) the fees and expenses incurred in connection
with the registration or qualification and determination of eligibility for investment of the Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate; (vii) all expenses and application fees related to the admission to
listing, trading and/or quotation of the Securities on any listing authority, exchange or system; (viii) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Securities; (ix) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any paying agent (including
related fees and expenses of any counsel to such parties); (x) any expenses and application fees incurred in connection with the approval of the Securities for book-entry transfer by DTC or other depositary; and (xi) all expenses incurred by the
Company in connection with any “road show” presentation to potential investors. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, solely if the transactions contemplated by the Pricing Agreement are consummated, the Underwriters will reimburse the Company
for the fees, expenses and costs, if any, specified in the Pricing Agreement.
(b) If (i) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Securities for delivery to the Underwriters or (ii) the Underwriters decline
to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted hereunder, the Company agrees to reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of their counsel)
reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in connection with the Pricing Agreement and the offering contemplated thereby.
10. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. The Pricing Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Representatives and the Company and their
respective successors and any controlling persons referred to in Section 7(b) hereof, and the affiliates, officers and directors of the Underwriters referred to in Section 7(a) hereof. Nothing in the Pricing Agreement is intended or will be construed
to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of the Pricing Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Securities from the Underwriters will be deemed to be a successor merely by reason
of such purchase.
11. Process Agent. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably agrees that any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon the Pricing Agreement or
the transactions contemplated hereby may be instituted in any U.S. federal or New York state court located in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York and any competent court located in the domicile of such party, with respect to actions
brought against it as defendant, and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such proceeding and waives any right to which it may be entitled on
account of place of residence or domicile and irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. The Company has appointed CT Corporation System as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”)
upon which process may be served in any such action arising out of or based on the Pricing Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby which may be instituted in any New York court by any Underwriter or by any person who controls such
Underwriter, designates CT Corporation System’s address in New York City as its designated address to receive such process, expressly consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in respect of any such action, and waives any other requirements of
or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. Such appointment of the Authorized Agent will not be revoked by any action taken by the Company. The Company represents and warrants that the Authorized Agent has agreed to act as said
agent for service of process, and the Company agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents, agreement and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect as aforesaid.
Personal service of process upon the Authorized Agent in any manner permitted by applicable law and written notice of such service to the Company will be deemed, in every respect, effective service of process upon the Company.
22
12. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, on the one hand, and the
Underwriters, on the other hand, contained in the Pricing Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters pursuant to the Pricing Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto will survive the delivery of and payment for
the Securities and will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of the Pricing Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Underwriters.
13. Additional Amounts. If the compensation (including the Underwriters’ commissions and concessions) or any other amounts to be received by the Underwriters
under the Pricing Agreement (including, without limitation, indemnification and contribution payments), as a result of entering into the Pricing Agreement, are subject to any present or future taxes, assessments, deductions, withholdings or charges
of any nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of Mexico or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority therein (“Mexican Taxes”), then the Company will pay to the Underwriters an additional amount so that the Underwriters will
retain, after taking into consideration all such Mexican Taxes, an amount equal to the amounts owed to them as compensation or otherwise under the Pricing Agreement as if such amounts had not been subject to Mexican Taxes. If any Mexican Taxes are
collected by deduction or withholding, the Company will upon request provide to the Underwriters copies of documentation evidencing the transmittal to the proper authorities of the amount of Mexican Taxes deducted or withheld.
14. Judgment Currency. The Company will indemnify each Underwriter, jointly and severally, against any loss incurred by them as a result of any judgment or order
against the Company, being given or made and expressed and paid in a currency (“Judgment Currency”) other than U.S. dollars and as a result of any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the U.S. dollar amount is converted into
the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order and (ii) the spot rate of exchange in New York, New York at which such Underwriter on the date of payment of such judgment or order are able to purchase U.S. dollars with the amount of
the Judgment Currency actually received by such Underwriter. The foregoing indemnity will constitute a separate and independent obligation of the Company and will continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as
aforesaid. The term “spot rate of exchange” will include any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, U.S. dollars.
15. Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) the Underwriters have been retained solely to act as underwriters in connection with the sale of the Securities and that no fiduciary, advisory or agency
relationship between the Company and the Underwriters has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by the Pricing Agreement, irrespective of whether the Underwriters have advised or are advising the Company on other matters;
23
(b) the price of the securities set forth in the Pricing Agreement was established by the Company following discussions and arms-length negotiations with the
Underwriters, and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Pricing Agreement;
(c) any review by the Underwriters of the Company, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the
benefit of the Underwriters and will not be on behalf of the Company;
(d) it has been advised that the Underwriters and their affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the
Company and that the Underwriters have no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and
(e) it waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Underwriters for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty
and agrees that the Underwriters shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including
stockholders, employees or creditors of the Company.
16. Miscellaneous.
(a) Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted and confirmed
by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Underwriters will be given to the Representatives at the addresses set forth in the Pricing Agreement. Notices to the Company will be given at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Telcel,

(c) Counterparts. The Pricing Agreement may be signed in counterparts (which may include counterparts delivered by any standard form of telecommunication), each
of which will be an original and all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
(d) Amendments or Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of the Pricing Agreement, nor any consent or approval to any departure therefrom, will in any
event be effective unless the same will be in writing and signed by the parties hereto.

24
17. Defaulting Underwriter.
(a) If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter defaults on its obligation to purchase the Securities that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non-defaulting
Underwriters may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the non-defaulting
Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company will be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase such Securities on
such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter, either the non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any
changes that in the opinion of counsel to the Company or counsel to the Underwriters may be necessary in the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any
amendment or supplement to the Time of Sale Disclosure Package or the Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any
person not listed in Schedule I to the Pricing Agreement that, pursuant to this Section 17, purchases Securities that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.
(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the
Company as provided in Section 17(a) hereof, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, then the Company will have the right to
require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of Securities that such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder plus such Underwriter’s pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities that such Underwriter agreed
to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made.
(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the non-defaulting Underwriters and the
Company as provided in Section 17(a) hereof, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, or if the Company shall not exercise the right
described in Section 17(b) hereof, then this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Underwriters. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 17 will be without liability on the part of the
Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of expenses as set forth in Section 9(a) hereof and provided that the provisions of Section 7 hereof will not terminate and will remain in effect.
(d) Nothing contained herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Underwriter for damages caused by
its default.
