Disclosure controls and procedures are defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act to mean controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
At the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 40-F, being the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Registrant’s management, including the principal executive and principal financial officers (its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2021.
MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Registrant’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by the Registrant’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of the Registrant’s consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:
•pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Registrant;
•provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Registrant; and
•provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Registrant’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

Management’s Assessment and Auditor’s Attestation Report
In connection with the Company’s reporting obligations in Canada and its obligations under Rule 13a-15(c) under the Exchange Act, management, under the supervision and with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued in 2013 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Framework”). Based on its evaluation under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as at that date.
KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm that audited and reported on our consolidated financial
statements, has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2021. The attestation report is included on the fourth page of our consolidated financial statements filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
AUDIT COMMITTEE
The Registrant’s Board of Directors has established a separately-designated Audit, Finance and Risk Committee (the “Audit Committee”) in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act and NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(c). As at the date of this annual report, the Registrant’s Audit Committee is comprised of the following directors, each of whom is independent as determined under each of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(a):
Benita Warmbold, Chair
James Bertram
Paul Dobson
Maureen Howe
Leslie O’Donoghue
All members of the Audit Committee are financially literate, meaning they are able to read and understand the Company's financial statements and to understand the breadth and level of complexity of the issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the Company's financial statements. The Audit Committee meets the composition requirements set forth by NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(c)(2).
A description of the mandate of the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee Charter”), together with the relevant education and experience of its members and other Committee information, may be found in the “Audit Committee Information” section of the Registrant’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this annual report. The full text of the Audit Committee Charter is attached as Appendix “A” to the Annual Information Form.
AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT
The Registrant’s Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Benita Warmbold is an audit committee financial expert (as that term is defined in paragraph (8)(b) of General Instruction B to Form 40-F under the Exchange Act). The Commission has indicated that the designation of Ms. Warmbold as an audit committee financial expert does not make Ms. Warmbold an “expert” for any other purpose (including without limitation for purposes of section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), impose any duties, obligations or liability on Ms. Warmbold that are greater than those imposed on members of the Audit Committee and the board of directors who do not carry this designation, or affect the duties, obligations or liability of any other member of the Audit Committee or the board of directors.

CODE OF ETHICS
The Registrant has adopted a Code of Business Conduct (the “Code of Ethics”) that applies to directors, officers and employees, including the Registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. The Code of Ethics materially complies with NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5610, and meets the requirements for a “code of ethics” within the meaning of that term in Form 40-F. A copy of the Code of Ethics can be found on the Registrant’s website at www.methanex.com.
No waivers from or substantive amendments to the provisions of the Code of Ethics were made in 2021.
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES
KPMG LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, Vancouver, are the independent auditors of the Registrant. The holders of the Registrant’s common shares have resolved to have the directors of the Registrant determine the auditors’ remuneration.
The Registrant’s Audit Committee annually reviews and approves the terms and scope of the external auditors’ engagement. The Audit Committee oversees the Audit and Non-Audit Pre-Approval Policy, which sets forth the procedures and the conditions under which permissible services proposed to be performed by KPMG LLP, the Registrant’s external auditors, are pre-approved. The Audit Committee has delegated to the Chair of the Audit Committee pre-approval authority for any services not previously approved by the Audit Committee. All such services approved by the Chair of the Audit Committee are subsequently reviewed by the Audit Committee.
All non-audit service engagements, regardless of the cost estimate, are required to be coordinated and approved by the Chief Financial Officer to further ensure that adherence to this policy is monitored.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
Tabular disclosure of contractual obligations is made on page 24 of the Registrant’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this report.
NASDAQ CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Company is subject to corporate governance requirements prescribed under applicable Canadian securities laws, rules and policies. The Company is also subject to corporate governance requirements prescribed by the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market, and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act (including those applicable rules and regulations mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002).
NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5615(a)(3) permits a foreign private issuer to follow its home country practice in lieu of certain corporate governance requirements of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules. A foreign private issuer that follows a home country practice in lieu of one or more provisions of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules is required to disclose in its annual report filed with the Commission, or on its website, each corporate governance requirement of the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules that it does not follow and describe the home country practice followed by the issuer in lieu of such NASDAQ corporate governance requirements.
A description of the significant ways in which the Company’s governance practices differ from those followed by domestic companies pursuant to NASDAQ standards is as follows:
•Shareholder Meeting Quorum Requirement: NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5620(c) provides that the minimum quorum requirement for a shareholder meeting is 33 1/3% of the outstanding shares of common stock. In addition, a company listed on NASDAQ is required to provide for a quorum requirement in its bylaws. The Company’s by-laws provide that at any meeting of shareholders a quorum shall be two persons present in person, or represented by proxy, holding common shares representing not less than 25% of the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting.
•Distribution of Annual Reports: NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5250(d) requires a NASDAQ-listed company to make available to shareholders an annual report containing audited financial statements of the company and its subsidiaries (which, for example, may be on 40-F under the Exchange Act) within a reasonable period of time following the filing of the annual report with the Commission. The Company may comply with this requirement either:
◦by mailing the report to shareholders (as opposed to electronic or notice-and-access delivery);
7

◦by satisfying the requirements for furnishing an annual report contained in Rule 14a-16 under the Exchange Act (which rule is not applicable to the Company, as explained in more detail below); or
◦by posting the annual report to shareholders on or through the company's website, along with a prominent undertaking in the English language to provide shareholders, upon request, a hard copy of the annual report free of charge. A company that chooses to satisfy this requirement in this manner must, simultaneously with this posting, issue a press release stating that its annual report has been filed with the Commission. The press release must also state that: (a) the annual report is available on the company's website and include the website address, and (b) shareholders may receive a hard copy free of charge upon request.
The Company is a “foreign private issuer” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act, and the equity securities of the Company are accordingly exempt from the proxy rules set forth in Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c) and 14(f) of the Exchange Act (including Exchange Act Rule 14a-16). The Company solicits proxies in accordance with applicable rules and regulations in Canada.
Pursuant to the provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act (the “CBCA”), the Company, as a “distributing corporation” under the CBCA, is required to send a copy of the annual audited comparative financial statements to each registered shareholder determined as of a set record date, except to a shareholder who has informed the Company in writing that he or she does not want a copy of these documents.
Section 437 of the TSX Company Manual requires that: (a) every TSX-listed company must forward annually to each shareholder who has requested them its annual financial statements and its MD&A in accordance with NI 51-102; and (b) if a listed company produces an annual report, it must be filed publicly through the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (commonly referred to as “SEDAR”), an electronic database maintained on behalf of the Canadian provincial securities regulators (the “Canadian Securities Administrators”) and available at www.sedar.com.
Pursuant to Canadian National Instrument 51-102 - Continuous Disclosure Obligations (“NI 51-102”), the Company is required to send annually a request form to the registered holders and beneficial owners of its securities, other than debt instruments, that registered holders and beneficial owners may use to request a copy of the Company's annual financial statements and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”), the interim financial statements and related MD&A, or both. If a registered holder or beneficial owner of securities, other than debt instruments, of the Company requests the Company's annual or interim financial statements, the Company must send a copy of the requested financial statements to the person or company that made the request, without charge, by the later of: (a) 10 days after the filing deadline for the financial statements, or (b) 10 calendar days after the Company receives the request. If the Company sends financial statements it must also send, at the same time, the annual or interim MD&A relating to the financial statements.
The Company has elected to use the notice-and-access (“Notice-and-Access”) provisions adopted by the Canadian Securities Administrators for delivery of proxy materials to its shareholders, as contained in NI 51-102 and National Instrument 54-101 – Communication with Beneficial Owners of Securities of a Reporting Issuer. Pursuant to Notice-and-Access, the Company’s shareholders will receive a notice containing only certain prescribed information in plain language (including the website addresses for SEDAR and the non-SEDAR websites where the proxy-related materials are posted, as well as a toll-free telephone number for use by shareholders to obtain information about Notice-and-Access and to request paper copies of the proxy materials). Such notice may be sent by the Company by prepaid mail, courier (or the equivalent) or electronically if prior consent has been obtained, along with the applicable voting instruction form.
If a shareholder requests paper copies of an information circular, the Company will be required to send, free of charge, the items requested within three business days for requests received prior to the date of the meeting, and within 10 calendar days for requests received on or after the date of the meeting but within one year of the information circular being filed on SEDAR. When responding to such requests, the Company will be prohibited from asking for any other information about the requestor, other than the name and address to which the requested materials are to be sent.
8

Since the foregoing corporate governance practices of the Company are consistent with the laws, customs and practices in Canada, the Company has sought and received relief from the differing NASDAQ standards pursuant to NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5615(a)(3).
The Company believes that there are otherwise no significant differences between its corporate governance policies and those required to be followed by United States domestic issuers listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market. In particular, in addition to having a separate Audit Committee, the Registrant’s Board of Directors has established a separately-designated Human Resources Committee that materially meets the requirements for a compensation committee under NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 5605(d), as currently in force.
The Company is required by National Instrument 58-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators, Disclosure of Corporate Governance Practices, to describe its practices and policies with regard to corporate governance in management information circulars that are furnished to the Company’s shareholders in connection with annual meetings of shareholders.
UNDERTAKING
The Registrant undertakes to make available, in person or by telephone, representatives to respond to inquiries made by the Commission staff, and to furnish promptly, when requested to do so by the Commission staff, information relating to: the securities in relation to which the obligation to file an annual report on Form 40-F arises, or transactions in said securities.
CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS
A Form F-X signed by the Registrant and the Registrant’s agents for service of process: (a) with respect to the Common Shares, was filed with the Commission together with the Form 40-F of the Registrant on June 16, 1995; (b) with respect to the 4.25% Senior Notes due December 1, 2024 was filed with the Commission together with the Form F-10 of the Registrant on October 31, 2014; (c) with respect to the 5.65% Senior Notes due December 1, 2044 was filed with the Commission together with the Form F-10 of the Registrant on October 31, 2014; (d) with respect to the 5.25% Senior Notes due December 15, 2029, was filed with the Commission together with the Form F-10 of the Registrant on August 22, 2019; and (e) with respect to the 5.125% Senior Notes due October 15, 2027, was filed with the Commission together with the Form F-10 of the Registrant on September 9, 2020.
