Cement is the primary <strong>building</strong> material in the industrial and residential construction sectors of most of the markets in which we<br />

operate. The lack of available cement substitutes further enhances the marketability of our product. The primary end-users of cement<br />

in each region in which we operate vary but usually include, among others, wholesalers, ready-mix concrete producers, industrial<br />

customers and contractors in bulk. Additionally, sales of bagged cement to individuals for self-construction and other basic needs are a<br />

significant component of the retail sector. The end-users of ready-mix concrete generally include homebuilders, commercial and<br />

industrial <strong>building</strong> contractors and road builders. Major end-users of aggregates include ready-mix concrete producers, mortar<br />

producers, general <strong>building</strong> contractors and those engaged in road <strong>building</strong> activity, asphalt producers and concrete product producers.<br />

In summary, because of their many favorable qualities, builders worldwide use our cement, ready-mix concrete and aggregates for<br />

almost every kind of construction project, from hospitals and highways to factories and family homes.<br />
