1.

Interest.

Methanex Corporation, a Canadian corporation (such corporation, and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company will pay interest semi-annually on [—] and [—] of each year beginning in [—]. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from [—]. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal at the rate borne by the Notes plus 1% per annum, and it shall pay interest on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful.

 

2.

Method of Payment.

The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are registered holders of Notes at the close of business on the [—] and [—] next preceding the interest payment date even if Notes are cancelled after the record date and on or before such interest payment date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company will pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments in respect of the Notes represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium and interest) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of The Depository Trust Company as specified by The Depository Trust Company. The Company will make all payments of interest in respect of the definitive Notes, by mailing a check to the registered address of each Holder thereof.

 

3.

Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York corporation authorized to do a banking business (“Trustee”), will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated wholly owned Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

 

4.

Indenture.

The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of July 20, 1995 (“Original Indenture”), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated June 18, 2002 (“First Supplemental Indenture”), a Second Supplemental Indenture dated June 19, 2002 (“Second Supplemental Indenture”), a Third Supplemental Indenture dated December 9, 2003 (“Third Supplemental Indenture”), a Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated August 3, 2005 (“Fourth Supplemental Indenture”), a Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated February 28, 2012 (“Fifth Supplemental Indenture”) and a Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated November 18, 2014 (“Sixth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Original Indenture, First Supplemental Indenture, Second Supplemental Indenture, Third Supplemental Indenture, Fourth Supplemental Indenture and Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee.

The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Noteholders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms.

5.

Optional Redemption.

Prior to [—] (the “Early Call Date”), the Notes will be redeemable as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, at a redemption price calculated by the Company equal to the greater of: (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes; and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon that would be due if the Notes matured on the Early Call Date but for the redemption (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus [—] basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.

At any time on or after the Early Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming for such purpose that the Notes matured on the Early Call Date) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate notes of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes (assuming for such purpose that the Notes matured on the Early Call Date).

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

Morgan Securities LLC plus two others or their affiliates which are primary U.S. Government securities dealers appointed by the Company after consultation with the Independent Investment Banker; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing or their affiliates shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in The City of New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer, if one is available.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. New York time on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

6.

Special Tax Redemption.

If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (including any regulations promulgated thereunder) of Canada (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendment to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after [—], the Company has become or would become obligated to pay, on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Notes, any Additional Amounts in accordance with Section 4.07 of the Indenture, then the Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, as a whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest (if any) to the redemption date; provided that the Company shall have determined, in its business judgment, that the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures available to the Company, not including substitution of the obligor under the Notes.

 

7.

Notice of Redemption.

Notice of redemption will be given not less than 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. Notes in denominations larger than U.S.$2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of U.S.$1,000. If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest (if any) on all Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Paying Agent on or before the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, on and after such date interest ceases to accrue on such Notes (or such portions thereof) called for redemption.

 

8.

After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to the Trustee for payment.

 

11.

Defeasance.

Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time may terminate some or all of its and each Guarantor’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, as the case may be.

Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the Notes of a series being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

 

15.

Guarantees.

The Company has covenanted pursuant to the Indenture, subject to certain exceptions, to cause any Restricted Subsidiary that Incurs Indebtedness to execute and deliver to the Trustee a Guarantee Agreement pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will guarantee this Note on the same terms and conditions as those set forth in Exhibit B to the Indenture.

 

16.

No Recourse Against Others.

A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company or the Trustee shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder of a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.
