UP ONE MILLION TONNE GEISMAR 2 METHANOL PLANT IN LOUISIANA </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Methanex Corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;) (TSX:MX) (NASDAQ:MEOH)
announced that on December&nbsp;27, 2015, the company successfully produced first methanol from its newly completed one million tonne Geismar 2 methanol plant in Geismar, Louisiana. The plant was relocated from the Company&#146;s production site in
Punta Arenas, Chile. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">John Floren, President and CEO of Methanex commented, &#147;We are extremely pleased to announce that our Geismar 2
plant is producing methanol roughly three months ahead of our original schedule. We expect the plant to ramp up to full production rates over the coming weeks. With the start-up of Geismar 2, we have successfully grown our operating capacity by
approximately three million tonnes over the last three years. The total combined cost for the completion of the two Geismar plants is approximately $1.4&nbsp;billion. We believe this represents a substantial cost savings relative to a new-build
plant, and we expect the Geismar 2 plant will create significant cash-flow and value for shareholders.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Mr.&nbsp;Floren added,
&#147;Our team has done an excellent job of managing the complex and multidimensional undertaking of relocating two plants from Chile to Louisiana. The project was completed ahead of schedule with excellent safety and environmental performance. A
sincere thanks to all of the team members throughout the organization who have worked so hard to achieve this important milestone.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="justify">Methanex is a Vancouver-based, publicly traded company and is the world&#146;s largest producer and supplier of methanol to major
international markets. Methanex shares are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange in Canada under the trading symbol &#147;MX&#148; and on the NASDAQ Global Market in the United States under the trading symbol &#147;MEOH&#148;. </P>
