ENERGY SURCHARGE
 MEXICO
30 June 2010
Dear Valued Customer:
The price of Diesel and fuel oil in Mexico , and for global energy in general, has increased to unprecedented levels. The rise in energy prices has had a significant impact on the mining and production costs of our operations. As a result, since April 1, 2008 (or as current price agreements expire), Celite Mexicana, S.A. de C.V. has implemented an Energy Surcharge, subject to any applicable provisions in individual contracts, which will appear as a separate line item on your invoice.
We are adjusting the Energy Surcharge monthly based on the Pemex public price of Diesel and fuel oil versus the October 2007 price. The base prices are MXN 5.93 for Diesel and MXN 4.98 for fuel oil.
The Energy Surcharge is calculated in the month proceeding the month of implementation. The chart below outlines the Energy Surcharge.
The Energy Surcharge for July 2010 is based on the May 2010 price of MXN 8.56 for Diesel and MXN 6.62 for fuel oil. Reference Pemex calculation details. Any future changes in the Energy Surcharge will become effective the first day of the month.
