METHANEX REPORTS FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

April 28, 2010

For the first quarter of 2010, Methanex reported Adjusted EBITDA! of $81.5 million and net income of $29.3 million ($0.31
per share on a diluted basis). This compares with Adjusted EBITDA of $72.9 million and net income of $25.7 million
($0.28 per share on a diluted basis) for the fourth quarter of 2009.

Bruce Aitken, President and CEO of Methanex commented, “We achieved an average realized price which was about $20
per tonne higher than last quarter and this led to higher EBITDA in the first quarter. Our results would normally have been
higher, however they were negatively impacted by lower produced product sales volumes relative to production and higher
stock-based compensation. ”

Mr. Aitken added, “Methanol demand continues to be healthy and our sales volumes were up 12% over last quarter. We
also reported higher production in the first quarter due to a better operating rate at our Chile site as a result of the recent
successful development of new gas supply in that country. We look forward to a further improvement to our production
and cash flow generation in the second half of this year with the Egypt Project targeted to be producing methanol in the
middle of this year. ”

Mr. Aitken concluded, “With US$196 million of cash on hand, a strong balance sheet, no near term refinancing
requirements, and an undrawn credit facility, we are well positioned to continue to invest to grow the Company.”

A conference call is scheduled for April 29, 2010 at 11:00 am ET (8:00 am PT) to review these first quarter results. To

The production capacity of our production facilities may be higher than original nameplate capacity as, over time, these figures have been adjusted to reflect
ongoing operating efficiencies at these facilities.

The production capacity of New Zealand represents only our 0.9 million tonne per year Motunui facility which we restarted in late 2008. Practical operating
capacity will depend partially on the composition of natural gas feedstock and may differ from the stated capacity above. We also have additional potential
production capacity that is currently idled in New Zealand (refer to the New Zealand section on page 3 for more information).

Chile

We continue to operate our methanol facilities in Chile significantly below site capacity. This is primarily due to curtailments of
our natural gas supply from Argentina – refer to the Management’s Discussion and Analysis included in our 2009 Annual Report

for more information.

During the first quarter of 2010 we increased production from our methanol facilities in Chile and produced 304,000 tonnes
compared with 265,000 tonnes during the fourth quarter of 2009. Production was higher than the fourth quarter of 2009 due to

increased natural gas supply which allowed us to start-up a second plant late in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Our goal is ultimately to return to operating all four of our plants in Chile with natural gas from suppliers in Chile. We are
pursuing investment opportunities with the state-owned energy company Empresa Nacional del Petroleo (ENAP), GeoPark Chile
Limited (GeoPark) and others to help accelerate natural gas exploration and development in southern Chile. Over the past few
years, we have provided GeoPark with $55 million (of which approximately $13 million had been repaid at March 31, 2010) to
support and accelerate GeoPark’s natural gas exploration and development activities in southern Chile. GeoPark has agreed to
supply us with all natural gas sourced from the Fell block in southern Chile under a ten-year exclusive supply arrangement
commencing in 2008. We are also working with ENAP to accelerate natural gas exploration and development in the Dorado
Riquelme block in southern Chile and to supply natural gas to our production facilities in Chile. Under the arrangement, we fund a

50% participation in the block and, as at March 31, 2010, we had contributed approximately $74 million.

Approximately 55% of total production at our Chilean facilities is currently being produced with natural gas supplied from the Fell
and Dorado Riquelme blocks. In mid-December 2009, based on the success of the natural gas development initiatives, we
restarted a second plant in Chile and throughout the first quarter of 2010 we operated two plants, each at approximately 60%
capacity. In early April 2010, we returned to operating one plant in Chile at almost full rates as a result of lower natural gas
deliveries due to the need for ENAP to satisfy incremental demand for natural gas for residential purposes during the winter season

in southern Chile. We believe after the southern hemisphere winter period we will again be able to restart a second plant.

Other investment activities are also supporting the acceleration of natural gas exploration and development in areas of southern
Chile. In late 2007, the government of Chile completed an international bidding round to assign oil and natural gas exploration
areas that lie close to our production facilities and announced the participation of several international oil and gas companies. The
terms of the agreements from the bidding round require minimum investment commitments. In July 2008, we announced that
under the international bidding round, the Otway exploration block in southern Chile was awarded to a consortium that includes
Wintershall Chile Limitada (Wintershall), GeoPark and Methanex. During the first quarter of 2010, we agreed to participate in the
Tranquilo exploration block, also located in southern Chile. The participation is part of a new ownership structure that involves
both the Tranquilo block and the Otway block. In the new ownership structure, Wintershall, GeoPark, and Pluspetrol Chile S.A.
(Pluspetrol) each have 25% participation and International Finance Corporation (IFC), member of the World Bank Group, and
Methanex each have 12.5% participation. GeoPark will be the operator of both blocks. The arrangement is subject to approval by

the government of Chile. In 2010, approved budgets by the consortium for the two blocks total $37 million.

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT PAGE 2
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

We cannot provide assurance that ENAP, GeoPark or others will be successful in the exploration and development of natural gas
or that we will obtain any additional natural gas from suppliers in Chile on commercially acceptable terms.

Trinidad

Our equity ownership of methanol facilities in Trinidad represent approximately 2.1 million tonnes of competitive-cost annual
capacity. Our methanol facilities in Trinidad produced 455,000 tonnes during the first quarter of 2010 compared with 467,000
tonnes during the fourth quarter of 2009. Production at our Trinidad facilities was lower than capacity by approximately 60,000
tonnes during the first quarter of 2010 and by approximately 50,000 tonnes during the fourth quarter of 2009 primarily as a result

of unplanned maintenance activities in both periods.

New Zealand

Our New Zealand facilities produced 208,000 tonnes during the first quarter of 2010 compared with 223,000 tonnes during the
fourth quarter of 2009. Production was lower in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 as a result of

reduced operating rates at times during the first quarter of 2010 to resolve a plant technical issue.

In October 2008, we restarted one of our idled 0.9 million tonne per year Motunui methanol plants and idled our 0.5 million
tonne per year Waitara Valley plant. We currently have 1.4 million tonnes per year of idled capacity in New Zealand, including a
second 0.9 million tonne per year Motunui plant and the Waitara Valley plant. These facilities provide the potential to increase
production in New Zealand depending on methanol supply and demand dynamics and the availability of economically priced
natural gas feedstock.

EARNINGS ANALYSIS

Our operations consist of a single operating segment – the production and sale of methanol. In addition to the methanol
that we produce at our facilities, we also purchase and re-sell methanol produced by others and we sell methanol on a
commission basis. We analyze the results of all methanol sales together. The key drivers of change in our Adjusted EBITDA
for methanol sales are average realized price, sales volume and cash costs.

For a further discussion of the definitions and calculations used in our Adjusted EBITDA analysis, refer to How We Analyze
Our Business.

For the first quarter of 2010, we recorded Adjusted EBITDA of $81.5 million and net income of $29.3 million ($0.31 per
share on a diluted basis). This compares with Adjusted EBITDA of $72.9 million and net income of $25.7 million ($0.28
per share on a diluted basis) for the fourth quarter of 2009 and Adjusted EBITDA of $13.1 million and a net loss of $18.4
million ($0.20 loss per share on a diluted basis) for the first quarter of 2009.

The global financial crisis and weak economic environment in late 2008 and early 2009 resulted in a significant reduction
in global methanol demand and a period of low methanol pricing. During 2009, global demand improved, and as a result
of this improvement as well as some planned and unplanned plant outages across the industry, methanol prices increased
in the latter half of 2009 and into 2010 (refer to Supply/Demand Fundamentals section below for more information).
Our average non-discounted posted price for the first quarter of 2010 was $352 per tonne compared with $327 per tonne
for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $216 per tonne for the first quarter of 2009. Our average realized price for the first
quarter of 2010 was $305 per tonne compared with $282 per tonne for the fourth quarter of 2009 and $199 per tonne for
the first quarter of 2009. The changes in our average realized price for the first quarter of 2010 increased revenues by $34
million compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 and increased revenues by $162 million compared with first quarter of
2009.

We have entered into long-term contracts for a portion of our production volume with certain global customers where
prices are either fixed or linked to our costs plus a margin and accordingly, we expect the discount from our average non-
discounted posted prices to widen during periods of higher methanol pricing. The discount from our average non-
discounted posted price for the first quarter of 2010 was approximately 13% compared with approximately 14% for the
fourth quarter of 2009 and approximately 8% for the first quarter of 2009. Certain of these contracts where prices are either
fixed or linked to our costs plus a margin expired at the end of 2009. The contracts represented approximately 10% of
overall sales volumes for the first quarter of 2010 compared with approximately 15% for the fourth quarter of 2009 and
approximately 18% for the first quarter of 2009.

Sales volumes

Total methanol sales volumes excluding commission sales volumes for the first quarter of 2010 were higher compared with
the fourth quarter of 2009 by 181,000 tonnes and higher compared with the first quarter of 2009 by 258,000 tonnes. This
resulted in higher Adjusted EBITDA by $15 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared with the fourth quarter of 2009
and higher Adjusted EBITDA by $10 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009. We have
increased sales volumes in 2010 compared with 2009 to capture demand growth and in anticipation of the new methanol
plant in Egypt and improved production in Chile.

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT PAGE 4
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Total cash costs

The primary driver of changes in our total cash costs are changes in the cost of methanol we produce at our facilities and
changes in the cost of methanol we purchase from others. Our production facilities are underpinned by natural gas
purchase agreements with pricing terms that include base and variable price components. The variable component is
adjusted in relation to changes in methanol prices above pre-determined prices at the time of production. We supplement
our production with methanol produced by others through methanol offtake contracts and on the spot market to meet
customer needs and support our marketing efforts within the major global markets. We have adopted the first-in, first-out
method of accounting for inventories and it generally takes between 30 and 60 days to sell the methanol we produce or
purchase. Accordingly, the changes in Adjusted EBITDA as a result of changes in natural gas costs and purchased methanol
costs will depend on changes in methanol pricing and the timing of inventory flows.

Total cash costs for the first quarter of 2010 were higher compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 by $41 million. Natural
gas costs on sales of produced methanol and purchased methanol costs were higher for the first quarter of 2010 compared
with the fourth quarter of 2009 by $7 million and $16 million, respectively, primarily as a result of higher methanol pricing.
Purchased methanol represented a higher proportion of our overall sales volumes for the first quarter of 2010 compared
with the fourth quarter of 2009 and this resulted in higher cash costs by approximately $10 million. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2010 compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 were higher by $7 million as
a result of higher stock-based compensation expense and higher by $1 million as a result of other changes in costs. Stock-
based compensation expense was higher for the first quarter of 2010 compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 as a result of
the impact of an increase in our share price during the first quarter of 2010 as well as the requirement under accounting
rules for immediate recognition of stock-based compensation issued to retirement eligible employees.

Total cash costs for the first quarter of 2010 were higher compared with the first quarter of 2009 by $104 million. Natural
gas costs on sales of produced methanol and purchased methanol costs were higher for the first quarter of 2010 compared
with the first quarter of 2009 by $19 million and $63 million, respectively, primarily as a result of higher methanol pricing.
Purchased methanol represented a higher proportion of our overall sales volumes for the first quarter of 2010 compared
with the first quarter of 2009 and this resulted in higher cash costs by approximately $16 million. Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009 were higher by $10 million
primarily as a result of higher stock-based compensation expense primarily from the impact of changes in our share price.
Also cash costs were higher during the first quarter of 2009 as a result of a charge of $4 million for severance and
termination costs associated with our Chilean operations.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $34 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared with $32 million for the fourth
quarter of 2009 and $29 million for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the
first quarter of 2010 compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2009 was primarily due to depletion
charges associated with our oil and gas investment in Chile. Depletion charges recorded in earnings for the first quarter of
2010 were approximately $4 million compared with $3 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 and nil for the first quarter of
2009. Upon receipt of final approval from the government of Chile in the third quarter of 2009, we adopted the full cost
methodology for accounting for oil and gas exploration costs associated with our 50% participation in the Dorado
Riquelme block in Southern Chile (refer to Production Summary section on page 2 for more information). Under these
accounting standards, cash investments in the block are initially capitalized and are recorded to earnings through non-cash
depletion charges as natural gas is produced from the block.

Interest and other income for the first quarter of 2010 was $1 million compared with nil for the fourth quarter of 2009 and
expense of $4 million for the first quarter of 2009. The increase in interest and other income during the first quarter of
2010 compared with the fourth quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of 2009 was primarily due to the impact of changes in
foreign exchange rates.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $12.6 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared with income tax expense of $9.0
million for the fourth quarter of 2009 and income tax recovery of $8.5 million for the first quarter of 2009. The effective tax
rate for the first quarter of 2010 was approximately 30% compared with approximately 26% for the fourth quarter of 2009
and 32% for the first quarter of 2009.

The statutory tax rate in Chile and Trinidad, where we earn a substantial portion of our pre-tax earnings, is 35%. Our Atlas
facility in Trinidad has partial relief from corporation income tax until 2014. In Chile the tax rate consists of a first tier tax
that is payable when income is earned and a second tier tax that is due when earnings are distributed from Chile. The
second tier tax is initially recorded as future income tax expense and is subsequently reclassified to current income tax
expense when earnings are distributed.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

SUPPLY/DEMAND FUNDAMENTALS

During 2009 and into 2010, global methanol demand recovered significantly from the effects of the global financial crisis
and weak economic environment and we estimate global demand has surpassed pre-recession levels and is currently
approximately 44 million tonnes measured on an annualized basis. We believe current indications are that global demand
will continue to improve during 2010. Increases in demand have been in both traditional and energy derivatives in Asia
(particularly in China), while we have seen on-going positive signs of modest demand recovery since mid-2009 in other
regions including Latin America, Europe and North America.

there have been a number of planned and unplanned plant outages across the industry. Increasing demand and
constrained supply led to methanol prices increasing through the latter half of 2009 and into 2010. Higher prices
have resulted in the restart of a significant amount of higher cost production, particularly in China. However,
supported by strong methanol demand in China, net imports into that country have remained high compared to
historical levels. Our average non-discounted posted price in the first quarter of 2010 was approximately $350 per
tonne, compared to an average price of $290 per tonne in the second half of 2009. Recently, spot prices in certain
markets have declined primarily as a result of industry supply operating at higher rates. We recently posted the non-
discounted price for May in North America at $333 per tonne.

The next increments of world scale capacity outside of China are four plants with capacity totaling 4.0 million tonnes.
These plants are in the process of starting up or are expected to start up later in 2010, including our own 1.3 million tonne
per year plant in Egypt which is targeted for start up in mid-2010. After these four new plants, there are no new capacity
additions expected outside of China over the next few years, with the exception of a 0.7 million tonne plant in Azerbaijan,
which we expect will impact the market in 2012.

Methanol demand into traditional derivatives is correlated to industrial production and we believe that methanol demand
into these derivatives should improve further as the macro-economic environment improves. Also over the last few years,
high energy prices have driven demand for methanol into energy applications such as gasoline blending and DME,
primarily in China. Recent regulatory changes have improved the demand outlook for methanol gasoline blending in China
and we believe demand potential into these energy derivatives will be stronger in a high energy price environment.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flows from operating activities before changes in working capital in the first quarter of 2010 were $78 million
compared with $74 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 and nil for the first quarter of 2009. The change in cash flows for
the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009 is primarily a result of the change in earnings levels.

During the first quarter of 2010, we paid a quarterly dividend of US$0.155 per share, or $14 million.

We are constructing a 1.3 million tonne per year methanol facility in Egypt. We are targeting the methanol facility to start
up in mid-2010. We own 60% of Egyptian Methanex Methanol Company S.A.E. (“EMethanex”) which is the company that
is developing the project and we will market 100% of the methanol produced from the facility. We account for our
investment in EMethanex using consolidation accounting. This results in 100% of the assets and liabilities of EMethanex
being included in our financial statements. The other investors” interest in the project is presented as “non-controlling
interest”. During the first quarter of 2010, total plant and equipment construction costs were $24 million. EMethanex has
limited recourse debt facilities of $530 million. As at March 31, 2010 a total of $494 million has been drawn, with $22

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT PAGE 7
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

million being drawn during the first quarter of 2010. We estimate total remaining capital expenditures of approximately
$75 million to complete the construction of the Egypt methanol facility, including capitalized interest related to the project
financing and excluding working capital. This excludes unpaid capital expenditures recorded in accounts payable at March
31, 2010 of approximately $26 million. These expenditures will be funded from cash generated from operations and cash
on hand, cash contributed by the non-controlling shareholders and proceeds from the limited recourse debt facilities. At
March 31, 2010, our 60% share of remaining cash equity contributions, including capitalized interest related to the project
financing and excluding working capital, is estimated to be approximately $25 million and we expect to fund these
expenditures from cash generated from operations and cash on hand.

We have an agreement with ENAP to accelerate natural gas exploration and development in the Dorado Riquelme
hydrocarbon exploration block in southern Chile. Under the arrangement, we fund a 50% participation in the block and
have contributed $74 million to date. We expect to make further contributions over the next few years to fully realize the
potential of the block. These contributions will be based on annual budgets established by ENAP and Methanex in
accordance with the Joint Operating Agreement that governs this development.

We have agreements with GeoPark under which we have provided $55 million in financing, of which GeoPark has repaid
$13 million as at March 31, 2010, to support and accelerate GeoPark’s natural gas exploration and development activities
in southern Chile.

We operate in a highly competitive commodity industry and believe it is appropriate to maintain a conservative balance
sheet and to retain financial flexibility. Our cash balance at March 31, 2010 was $196 million. We have a strong balance
sheet, no near term re-financing requirements, and an undrawn $200 million credit facility provided by highly rated
financial institutions that expires in mid-2012. We invest our cash only in highly rated instruments that have maturities of
three months or less to ensure preservation of capital and appropriate liquidity. Our planned capital maintenance
expenditure program directed towards major maintenance, turnarounds and catalyst changes for existing operations, is
currently estimated to total approximately $70 million for the period to the end of 2011.

We believe we are well positioned to meet our financial The credit ratings for our unsecured notes at March 31, 2010
were as follows:

Moody’s Investor Services Bal (stable)

commitments and continue to invest to grow the Company.

SHORT-TERM OUTLOOK

Into 2010 the methanol supply demand fundamentals have been reasonably balanced as a result of strong demand in
both traditional and energy derivatives in Asia and some recovery demand for traditional derivatives in other regions
including Europe and North America. This has resulted in a relatively stable price environment throughout the first quarter
of 2010.

The next increments of world scale capacity outside of China are four plants with capacity totaling 4.0 million tonnes
per year, which are in the process of starting up or are scheduled to start up later in 2010. This includes our own 1.3
million tonne per year plant in Egypt which is targeted to start up in mid-2010. We believe this new methanol facility
will further enhance our earnings and cash generation capability and positioning within the industry with its
competitive cost structure and excellent location to supply the European market.

We expect it may take some time for the new plants to achieve high rates of utilization and have a meaningful impact on
industry supply. We also believe that the impact of new supply will be offset by global methanol demand growth and
shutdown of high cost capacity. Recent regulatory changes have improved the demand outlook for methanol gasoline
blending in China and we believe demand potential into these energy derivatives will be stronger in a high energy price
environment. We also believe that methanol demand into traditional derivatives should continue to improve as the
macro economic environment improves.

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT PAGE 8
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The methanol price will ultimately depend on the strength of the global recovery, industry operating rates, global energy
prices, the rate of industry restructuring and the strength of global demand. We believe that our financial position and
financial flexibility, outstanding global supply network and low cost position will provide a sound basis for Methanex to
continue to be the leader in the methanol industry and to invest to grow the Company.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, no changes were made in our internal control over financial reporting that
have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

TRANSITION TO INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (IFRS)

In February 2008, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board confirmed January 1, 2011 as the changeover date for
Canadian publicly accountable enterprises to start using International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). IFRS uses a conceptual framework similar to Canadian GAAP, but there
are significant differences in recognition, measurement and disclosures.

As a result of the IFRS transition, changes in accounting policies are likely and may materially impact our consolidated
financial statements. The IASB will also continue to issue new accounting standards during the conversion period, and as a
result, the final impact of IFRS on our consolidated financial statements will only be measured once all the IFRS standards
applicable at the conversion date are known.

We have established a working team to manage the transition to IFRS. Additionally, we have established a formal project
governance structure that includes the Audit, Finance and Risk Committee of the Board, senior management, and an IFRS
steering committee to monitor progress and review and approve recommendations from the working team for the transition
to IFRS. The working team provides regular updates to the IFRS steering committee and to the Audit, Finance and Risk
Committee.

We have developed a plan to convert our consolidated financial statements to IFRS at the changeover date of January 1,
2011 with comparative financial results for 2010. The IFRS transition plan addresses the impact of IFRS on accounting
policies and implementation decisions, infrastructure, business activities, and control activities. For a detailed discussion of
the key elements and activities of the changeover plan, see the Anticipated Changes to Canadian Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles section of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis in our 2009 annual report. An update of the
status of these activities is as follows:

Accounting policies and implementation decisions

In 2010, we have continued to review our selection of IFRS accounting policies with our auditors to ensure consistent
interpretation of IFRS guidance in key areas. We have developed preliminary estimates of adjustments to the financial
statements on transition to IFRS. In 2010, all accounting policy changes from the transition to IFRS and the corresponding
adjustments to the financial statements will be subject to review by senior management, the IFRS Steering Committee and
ultimately final review and approval by the Audit, Finance and Risk Committee of the Board. For a discussion of those
accounting policy changes that management considers most significant to the Company, as well as a discussion of optional
exemptions available under IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, that the Company
currently intends to elect on transition to IFRS, see the Anticipated Changes to Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles section of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis in our 2009 annual report.

Infrastructure: Financial reporting expertise

We continue to provide training and updates for key employees, senior management, the Audit, Risk and Finance
Committee, and the Board regarding the application of IFRS accounting policies and the corresponding impact on our
consolidated financial statements.

Infrastructure: Information technology and data systems

We have assessed the impact on system requirements for the convergence and post-convergence periods. We do not
anticipate significant impact to applications arising from the transition to IFRS.

Business activities: Financial covenants

The financial covenant requirements in our financing relationships are measured on the basis of Canadian GAAP in effect at
the commencement of the various relationships, and the transition to IFRS will therefore have no impact on our current
financial covenant requirements. In 2010, we will develop a process to compile our financial results on a historical

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT PAGE 10
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Canadian GAAP basis and to monitor financial covenant requirements through to the conclusion of our current financing
relationships.

Business activities: Compensation arrangements

We have identified compensation policies that rely on indicators derived from the financial statements. In 2010, we will
work with the Company’s human resources department and the Human Resources Committee of the Board to ensure that
compensation arrangements incorporate IFRS results in accordance with the Company’s overall compensation principles.

Control activities: Internal control over financial reporting

We have identified the required accounting process changes that result from the application of IFRS accounting policies;
these changes are not anticipated to be significant. In 2010, we will complete the design, implementation and
documentation of the internal controls over accounting process changes that result from the application of IFRS accounting
policies.

Control activities: Disclosure controls and procedures
We continue to provide IFRS project updates in quarterly and annual disclosure documents. In 2010, all accounting policy

changes from the transition to IFRS and the corresponding adjustments to the financial statements will be subject to review
by senior management, the IFRS Steering Committee and ultimately final review and approval by the Audit, Finance and
Risk Committee of the Board.

We are progressing according to schedule and continue to be on-track toward project completion in 2011. We will
continue to provide updates on the status of the project and its impact on financial reporting in our quarterly and annual
Management’s Discussion and Analysis throughout the convergence period to January 1, 2011.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION — SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP MEASURES

In addition to providing measures prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
we present certain supplemental non-GAAP measures. These are Adjusted EBITDA, operating income and cash flows from
operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital. These measures do not have any standardized meaning
prescribed by Canadian GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other
companies. We believe these measures are useful in evaluating the operating performance and liquidity of the Company’s
ongoing business. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income, cash flows
and other measures of financial performance and liquidity reported in accordance with Canadian GAAP.

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT PAGE 11
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Adjusted EBITDA

This supplemental non-GAAP measure is provided to assist readers in determining our ability to generate cash from
operations. We believe this measure is useful in assessing performance and highlighting trends on an overall basis. We also
believe Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts and investors when comparing our results with those of
other companies. Adjusted EBITDA differs from the most comparable GAAP measure, cash flows from operating activities,
primarily because it does not include changes in non-cash working capital, other cash payments related to operating
activities, stock-based compensation expense, other non-cash items, interest expense, interest and other income (expense),
and current income taxes.

The following table shows a reconciliation of cash flows from operating activities to Adjusted EBITDA:

HOW WE ANALYZE OUR BUSINESS

Our operations consist of a single operating segment – the production and sale of methanol. We review our results of operations

by analyzing changes in the components of our adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciations and amortization (Adjusted

EBITDA) (refer to the Supplemental Non-GAAP Measures section on page 11 for a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP

measure), depreciation and amortization, interest expense, interest and other income, and income taxes. In addition to the

methanol that we produce at our facilities (“Methanex-produced methanol”), we also purchase and re-sell methanol produced by

others (“purchased methanol”) and we sell methanol on a commission basis. We analyze the results of all methanol sales together.

The key drivers of change in our Adjusted EBITDA are average realized price, cash costs and sales volume.

The price, cash cost and volume variances included in our Adjusted EBITDA analysis are defined and calculated as follows:

PRICE

COST

VOLUME

The change in Adjusted EBITDA as a result of changes in average realized price is calculated as the difference from
period to period in the selling price of methanol multiplied by the current period total methanol sales volume

excluding commission sales volume plus the difference from period to period in commission revenue.

The change in our Adjusted EBITDA as a result of changes in cash costs is calculated as the difference from period to
period in cash costs per tonne multiplied by the current period total methanol sales volume excluding commission
sales volume in the current period. The cash costs per tonne is the weighted average of the cash cost per tonne of
Methanex-produced methanol and the cash cost per tonne of purchased methanol. The cash cost per tonne of
Methanex-produced methanol includes absorbed fixed cash costs per tonne and variable cash costs per tonne. The
cash cost per tonne of purchased methanol consists principally of the cost of methanol itself. In addition, the change
in our Adjusted EBITDA as a result of changes in cash costs includes the changes from period to period in
unabsorbed fixed production costs, consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses and fixed storage and

handling costs.

The change in Adjusted EBITDA as a result of changes in sales volume is calculated as the difference from period to
period in total methanol sales volume excluding commission sales volumes multiplied by the margin per tonne for
the prior period. The margin per tonne for the prior period is the weighted average margin per tonne of Methanex-
produced methanol and purchased methanol. The margin per tonne for Methanex-produced methanol is calculated
as the selling price per tonne of methanol less absorbed fixed cash costs per tonne and variable cash costs per tonne.
The margin per tonne for purchased methanol is calculated as the selling price per tonne of methanol less the cost of

purchased methanol per tonne.

We also sell methanol on a commission basis. Commission sales represent volumes marketed on a commission basis related to the

36.9% of the Atlas methanol facility in Trinidad that we do not own.

Methanex Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unauditea)

Except where otherwise noted, tabular dollar amounts are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars.

1. Basis of presentation:

These interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in Canada on a basis consistent with those followed in the most recent annual consolidated financial
statements. These accounting principles are different in some respects from those generally accepted in the United
States and the significant differences are described and reconciled in Note 13. These interim consolidated financial
statements do not include all note disclosures required by Canadian generally accepted accounting principles for
annual financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial
statements included in the Methanex Corporation 2009 Annual Report.

2. Inventories:

(ii) Compensation expense related to stock options:

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, compensation expense related to stock options included in cost
of sales and operating expenses was $0.7 million (2009 – $2.2 million). The fair value of the 2010 stock
option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the
following assumptions:

b) Stock appreciation rights and tandem stock appreciation rights:

Subject to shareholder approval, on January 28, 2010, the Company’s stock option plan was amended to include
tandem stock appreciation rights (“TSARs”) and a new plan was introduced for stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). A
SAR gives the holder a right to receive a cash payment equal to the difference between the market price of the
Company’s common shares and the exercise price based on the closing price of $25.22 on the date of the grant. A
TSAR gives the holder the choice between exercising a regular stock option or surrendering the option for a cash
payment equal to the difference between the market price of the Companys common shares and the exercise
price. All SARs and TSARs granted have a maximum term of seven years with one-third vesting each year after the
date of grant.

8. Stock-based compensation (continued):

(ii) Compensation expense related to SARs and TSARs:

Compensation expense for SARs and TSARs are initially measured based on their intrinsic value and is
recognized over the related service period. The intrinsic value is measured by the difference between the
market price of the Company’s common shares and the exercise price. Changes in intrinsic value are
recognized in earnings for the proportion of the service that has been rendered at each reporting date. The
intrinsic value and liability of SARs and TSARs at March 31, 2010 were nil.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, compensation expense related to SARs and TSARs included in
cost of sales and operating expenses was nil.

Cc) Deferred, restricted and performance share units:

Deferred, restricted and performance share units outstanding at March 31, 2010 are as follows:

Number of] Number of] Number of

Deferred Share| Restricted Share] Performance

Units| Share Units

Redeemed – (326,840)
Cancelled – (5,457)
Outstanding at March 31, 2010 553,646 1,158,194

Compensation expense for deferred, restricted and performance share units is initially measured at fair value based
on the market value of the Company’s common shares and is recognized over the related service period. Changes
in fair value are recognized in earnings for the proportion of the service that has been rendered at each reporting
date. The fair value of deferred, restricted and performance share units at March 31, 2010 was $39.1 million
compared with the recorded liability of $27.8 million. The difference between the fair value and the recorded

liability of $11.3 million will be recognized over the weighted average remaining service period of approximately
2.1 years.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, compensation expense related to deferred, restricted and
performance share units included in cost of sales and operating expenses was $9.3 million (2009 – recovery of

$0.4 million). This included an expense of $5.0 million (2009 – recovery of $3.0 million), related to the effect of
the change in the Company’s share price.

9. Retirement plans:

Total net pension expense for the Company’s defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans during the three
months ended March 31, 2010 was $2.1 million (2009 – $3.5 million).

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PAGE 25

11. Financial instruments (continued):

The Egypt limited recourse debt facilities bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread. The Company has entered into interest
rate swap contracts to swap the LIBOR-based interest payments for an average aggregated fixed rate of 4.8% plus a
spread on approximately 75% of the Egypt limited recourse debt facilities for the period September 28, 2007 to March
31, 2015. The Company has the interest rate swap contracts to swap the variable-based interest payments for a fixed
rate and has designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges.

These interest rate swaps had outstanding notional amounts of $364 million as at March 31, 2010. Under the interest
rate swap contracts the maximum notional amount during the term is $368 million. The notional amount increases
over the period of expected draw-downs on the Egypt limited recourse debt and decreases over the expected
repayment period. At March 31, 2010, these interest rate swap contracts had a negative fair value of $32.9 million
(December 31, 2009 – $33.2 million) recorded in other long-term liabilities. The fair value of these interest rate swap
contracts will fluctuate until maturity and changes in their fair values have been recorded in other comprehensive
income.

The Company also designates as cash flow hedges forward exchange contracts to sell euros at a fixed USD exchange
rate. At March 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding forward exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges to
sell a notional amount of 40.4 million euros in exchange for US dollars and these euro contracts have a positive fair
value of $1.0 million.

At March 31, 2010, the Company’s derivative financial instruments that have not been designated as cash flow hedges
include a floating-for-fixed interest rate swap contract with a negative fair value of $0.1 million (December 31, 2009 –
$0.1 million) recorded in other long-term liabilities.

12. Contingent liability:

The Board of Inland Revenue of Trinidad and Tobago (BIR) issued an assessment in 2009 against our wholly owned
subsidiary, Methanex Trinidad (Titan) Unlimited, in respect of the 2003 financial year. The assessment relates to the
deferral of tax depreciation deductions during the five year tax holiday which ended in 2005. The impact of the
amount in dispute as at December 31, 2009 is approximately US$23 million in current taxes and US$26 million in
future taxes, exclusive of any interest charges.

The Company has lodged an objection to the assessment. Based on the merits of the case and legal interpretation,
management believes its position should be sustained.

13. United States generally accepted accounting principles:

The Company follows generally accepted accounting principles in Canada (“Canadian GAAP”) which are different in
some respects from those applicable in the United States and from practices prescribed by the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission (“U.S. GAAP”).

The significant differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP with respect to the Company’s consolidated
statements of income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

The significant differences between Canadian GAAP and U.S. GAAP with respect to the Company’s consolidated
statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

Three Months Ended

a) Business combination:

b)

o)

Effective January 1, 1993, the Company combined its business with a methanol business located in New Zealand
and Chile. Under Canadian GAAP, the business combination was accounted for using the pooling-of-interest
method. Under U.S. GAAP, the business combination would have been accounted for as a purchase with the
Company identified as the acquirer. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, an increase to depreciation expense by $0.5
million (2009 – $0.5 million), was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Stock-based compensation:

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company granted 394,065 stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) and 725,505
tandem stock appreciation rights (“TSARs”). A SAR gives the holder a right to receive a cash payment equal to the
difference between the market price of the Company’s common shares and the exercise price based on the closing
price of $25.22 on the date of the grant. A TSAR gives the holder the choice between exercising a regular stock
option or surrendering the option for a cash payment equal to the difference between the market price of a
common share and the exercise price. Refer to note 8 for further details regarding SARs and TSARs.

Under Canadian GAAP, both SARs and TSARs are accounted for using the intrinsic value method. The intrinsic
value is measured by the difference between the market price of the Company’s common shares and the exercise
price. At March 31, 2010, compensation expense related to SARs and TSARs for Canadian GAAP was nil as the
market price was lower than the exercise price. Under U.S. GAAP, SARs and TSARs are required to be accounted
for using a fair value method. Changes in fair value are recognized in earnings for the proportion of the service that
has been rendered at each reporting date. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine
the fair value of the SARs and TSARSs and this has resulted in an increase in cost of sales and operating expenses of
$3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

The Company also has 19,350 stock options that are accounted for as variable plan options under U.S. GAAP
because the exercise price of the stock options is denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional
currency or the currency in which the optionee is normally compensated. For Canadian GAAP purposes, no
compensation expense has been recorded as these options were granted in 2001 which is prior to the effective
implementation date for fair value accounting under Canadian GAAP.

Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes:

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No.
48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), as
codified in FASB ASC topic 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740). ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected
to be taken in a tax return. In accordance with ASC 740, an income tax expense of $2.3 million (2009 – $0.4
million) was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

METHANEX CORPORATION 2010 FIRST QUARTER REPORT
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PAGE 27

13. United States generally accepted accounting principles (continued):

d)

e)

Income tax accounting:

The income tax differences include the income tax effect of the adjustments related to accounting differences
between Canadian and U.S. GAAP. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, an increase to net income of $0.2 million
(2009 – $0.2 million) was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Defined benefit pension plans:

Effective January 1, 2006, U.S. GAAP requires the Company to measure the funded status of a defined benefit
pension plan at its balance sheet reporting date and recognize the unrecorded overfunded or underfunded status as
an asset or liability with the change in that unrecorded funded status recorded to other comprehensive income.
Under U.S. GAAP, all deferred pension amounts from Canadian GAAP are reclassified to accumulated other
comprehensive income. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, an increase to other comprehensive income of $0.3
million (2009 – $0.4 million) was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Interest in Atlas joint venture:

U.S. GAAP requires interests in joint ventures to be accounted for using the equity method. Canadian GAAP
requires proportionate consolidation of interests in joint ventures. The Company has not made an adjustment in
this reconciliation for this difference in accounting principles because the impact of applying the equity method of
accounting does not result in any change to net income or shareholders’ equity. This departure from U.S. GAAP is
acceptable for foreign private issuers under the practices prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission.

Non-controlling interests:

Effective January 1, 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51, as codified in FASB ASC topic 810, Consolidation (ASC 810). FAS
No. 160 requires the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified,
labelled, and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the
parent’s equity. Under this standard, the Company would be required to reclassify non-controlling interest on the
consolidated balance sheet into shareholders” equity. The Company has not made an adjustment in this
reconciliation for this difference in accounting principles because it results in a balance sheet reclassification and
does not impact net income or comprehensive income as disclosed in the reconciliation.
