Reforma, Miguel Angel Rubio from Motormexa would like to make the following
clarifications.

1.- Motormexa S.A. de C.V. and its shareholders paid all of their debts
to the creditor banks on December 16, 2002, before a Notary Public and the
representatives of the financial institutions.

Million Dollars
), simulation of legal actions and simulation of evidence,
false declaration before authorities, procedural fraud and attempted fraud.

3.- The experts appointed by the Mexico City District Attorney's Office
("Procuraduria General de Justicia del Distrito Federal") issued a report on
March 2, 2007, whereby they determined in an unequivocal manner, that the
signatures in the documents allegedly executed by Motormexa, and its
shareholders are forged and cannot be attributed to the people in question.

4.- Based on a detailed series of conclusions derived from the District
Attorney preliminary investigation number FPC-74-T2-692-06-10, Attorney at
law Blanca Rosa Ham Garcia, District Attorney Agent #74 of Mexico City,
Federal District, determined in her conclusions to exercise criminal legal
action against Mr. Rufino Vigil Gonzalez, as defendant and probable
responsible for the crime of procedural fraud against the plaintiff legal
entity, and its owners; requesting Judge #32 in criminal matters of Mexico
City
, Federal District, Attorney at law Jesus Ubando Lopez, to issue the
corresponding arrest warrant.

against Mr. Rufino Vigil Gonzalez for the crime of procedural fraud (without
the right to bail), on June 16, 2010.

6.- Mr. Rufino Vigil Gonzalez has not been located to execute the arrest
warrant. The District Attorney of Mexico City, Federal District ("Procurador
General de Justicia del Distrito Federal"), as well as INTERPOL are seeking
his location and capture. Therefore, he is considered a fugitive of justice.
