21 Mexico Energy Reform is a Reality Reform could drive an increase in rail shipments in the following ways: Increased LPG and refined products could be the first growth market Movement of steel tubing for new pipelines Importation of frac sand from the United States Crude by rail from new producing regions to refineries Increased intra-mexico moves of diesel, LPG, gasoline and fuel oil Reform could reduce power generation cost, further improving Mexican competitiveness and strengthen near shoring thesis 21

22 Refined Products Timeline: Gasoline and Diesel Gasoline and Diesel prices set by Pemex Gasoline and Diesel prices set by Mexican Treasury based on inflation, international prices and currency Gasoline and Diesel prices set by inflation or international prices Free pricing reflecting market conditions. No subsidies PEMEX Brand Only Brand Awareness allowed (ie Valero, Shell, Texaco) Brand Awareness allowed (ie Valero, Shell, Texaco) Brand Awareness allowed (ie Valero, Shell, Texaco) Free Import Market Free Import Market All Imports by PEMEX only All Imports by PEMEX only Federal Competition Commission will prevent PEMEX from obstructing competition Federal Competition Commission will prevent PEMEX from obstructing competition 22
