ARTICLE TWO

Certain Definitions

The following terms have the meanings set forth below in this Supplemental Indenture. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Indenture. To the extent terms defined herein differ from the Indenture the terms defined herein will govern.

“Acquisition” means the acquisition of Axiall by the Company pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement.

“Acquisition Agreement” means the agreement and plan of merger, dated June 10, 2016, among the Company, Axiall and Lagoon Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

“Attributable Debt” means, as to any lease in respect of a Sale and Leaseback Transaction under which any Person is at the time liable, at any date as of which the amount thereof is to be determined, the total net amount of rent required to be paid by such Person under such lease during the remaining term thereof (or, if earlier, the first date upon which such lease may be terminated without penalty), discounted from the respective due dates thereof to such date at the weighted average rate per annum borne by

the Notes, compounded annually. The net amount of rent required to be paid under any such lease for any such period shall be the aggregate amount of the rent payable by the lessee with respect to such period after excluding amounts required to be paid on account of maintenance and repairs, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates and similar charges. Unless the Company elects to calculate the total amount of rent required to be paid through the first date upon which such lease may be terminated without penalty (if such a provision exists), in the case of any lease which is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty, such net amount shall also include the amount of such penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated.

“Axiall” means Axiall Corporation.

“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the rating on the Notes of a series is lowered and as a result the Notes of such series cease to be rated Investment Grade by each of the Rating Agencies on any date during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing on the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a Change of Control and (b) the first public announcement by the Company of any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control) and ending 60 days following the consummation of such Change of Control (which Trigger Period will be extended if the rating of such Notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any Rating Agency on such 60th day, such extension to last with respect to each Rating Agency until the date on which such Rating Agency considering such possible downgrade either (x) rates the Notes of such series below Investment Grade or (y) publicly announces that it is no longer considering such Notes for possible downgrade; provided, that no such extension will occur if on such 60th day the Notes of such series are rated Investment Grade not subject to review for possible downgrade by any Rating Agency); provided, that a rating event will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus will not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event contained in this Article Two) if each Rating Agency making the reduction in rating does not publicly announce or confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). If any Rating Agency withdraws its rating on the Notes of a series or otherwise ceases to provide a rating on such Notes on any day during the Trigger Period for any reason and the Company has not selected a replacement Rating Agency pursuant to the terms of this Supplemental Indenture, the rating of such Rating Agency shall be deemed to be rated below Investment Grade on such day.

“Beneficial Owner” has the meaning assigned to such term in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that in calculating the beneficial ownership of any particular “person” as such term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, such “person” will be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all securities that such “person” has the right to acquire by conversion or exercise of other securities, whether such right is currently exercisable or is exercisable only upon the occurrence of a subsequent condition.

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following after the date of this Supplemental Indenture:

(1) the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” or “group” (as those terms are used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than to the Company or a Subsidiary;

(3) the Company consolidates with, or merges with or into, any Person, or any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which any of the outstanding Voting Stock of the Company or Voting Stock of such other Person is converted into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the Voting Stock of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction constitutes, or is converted into or exchanged for, Voting Stock representing more than 50% of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the surviving Person or its parent immediately after giving effect to such transaction;

(4) during any period of 24 consecutive calendar months, the majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company shall no longer be composed of individuals (a) who were members of the Board of Directors of the Company on the first day of such period or (b) whose election or nomination to the Board of Directors of the Company was approved by individuals referred to in clause (a) above constituting, at the time of such election or nomination, at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the Company or, if directors are nominated by a committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, constituting at the time of such nomination, at least a majority of such committee; or

(5) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

(b) Transfer and Exchange of Global Notes.

(i) The transfer and exchange of Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the applicable Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including applicable restrictions on transfer set forth herein, if any) and the procedures of the Depositary therefor. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial interest in the Global Note and such account shall be credited in accordance with such instructions with a beneficial interest in the Global Note and the account of the Person making the transfer shall be debited by an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.

A-4

(ii) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Note to a beneficial interest in another Global Note, the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Note to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Note from which such interest is being transferred.

(iii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Appendix A (other than the provisions set forth in Section 2.4), a Global Note may not be transferred as a whole except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of such successor Depositary.

(iv) In the event that a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes pursuant to Section 2.4 prior to the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer or the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such Notes, such Notes may be exchanged only in accordance with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.3 (including the certification requirements set forth on the reverse of the Initial Notes intended to ensure that such transfers comply with Rule 144A, Regulation S or such other applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act, as the case may be) and such other procedures as may from time to time be adopted by the Company.

(v) Restrictions on Transfer of Regulation S Global Notes.

(A) During the Distribution Compliance Period, beneficial ownership interests in Regulation S Global Notes may only be sold, pledged or transferred (i) to the Company, (ii) in an offshore transaction in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S, (iii) to QIBs pursuant to Rule 144A who take delivery in the form of a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Note or (iv) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States; and

(B) Beneficial interests in a Rule 144A Global Note may be transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Note, whether before or after the expiration of the Distribution Compliance Period, only if the transferor first delivers to the Trustee a written certificate (in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) to the effect that such transfer is being made in accordance with Rule 903 or 904 of Regulation S or Rule 144 (if applicable).

A-5

(i) Except as permitted by the following paragraphs (ii), (iii) and (iv), each certificate evidencing the Global Notes and the Definitive Notes (and all Notes issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof) shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

A-6

INSTITUTIONAL BUYER TO WHOM NOTICE IS GIVEN THAT THE TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A, (D) PURSUANT TO OFFERS AND SALES TO NON-U.S. PERSONS THAT OCCUR OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES WITHIN THE MEANING OF REGULATION S OR (E) PURSUANT TO ANOTHER AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND (3) AGREES THAT IT WILL GIVE TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THIS NOTE IS TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND; PROVIDED THAT THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT PRIOR TO ANY SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER (I) PURSUANT TO CLAUSE (E) TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO EACH OF THEM AND (II) IN EACH OF THE FOREGOING CASES, TO REQUIRE THAT A CERTIFICATE OF TRANSFER IN THE FORM APPEARING IN THE INDENTURE IS COMPLETED AND DELIVERED BY THE TRANSFEROR TO THE TRUSTEE.

Each Definitive Note will also bear the following additional legend:

“IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TRANSFER, THE HOLDER WILL DELIVER TO THE REGISTRAR AND TRANSFER AGENT SUCH CERTIFICATES AND OTHER INFORMATION AS SUCH TRANSFER AGENT MAY REASONABLY REQUIRE TO CONFIRM THAT THE TRANSFER COMPLIES WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS.”

(ii) Upon any sale or transfer of a Transfer Restricted Note (including any Transfer Restricted Note represented by a Global Note) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act:

(A) in the case of any Transfer Restricted Note that is a Definitive Note, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof to exchange such Transfer Restricted Note for a Note that does not bear the legends set forth above and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Note; and

(B) in the case of any Transfer Restricted Note that is represented by a Global Note, the Registrar shall permit the Holder thereof

A-7

to exchange such Transfer Restricted Note for a Note that does not bear the legends set forth above and rescind any restriction on the transfer of such Transfer Restricted Note,

in either case, if the Holder certifies in writing to the Registrar that its request for such exchange was made in reliance on Rule 144 (such certification to be in the form set forth on the reverse of the Initial Note).

(iii) After a transfer of any Initial Notes during the period of the effectiveness of a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to such Initial Notes, all requirements pertaining to restricted legends on such Initial Note will cease to apply and an Initial Note in global form without restricted legends will be available to the transferee of the beneficial interests of such Initial Notes. Upon the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in this paragraph, the Company will deliver an Officers’ Certificate, together with an Opinion of Counsel, to the Trustee instructing the Trustee to issue Notes without restricted legends.

(iv) Upon the consummation of a Registered Exchange Offer with respect to the Initial Notes pursuant to which certain Holders of such Initial Notes are offered Exchange Notes in exchange for their Initial Notes, Exchange Notes in global form without the restricted legends will be available to Holders or beneficial owners that exchange such Initial Notes (or beneficial interests therein) in such Registered Exchange Offer. Upon the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in this paragraph, the Company will deliver the Exchange Notes accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate, together with an Opinion of Counsel, to the Trustee instructing the Trustee to authenticate the Exchange Notes without restricted legends.

(d) Cancellation or Adjustment of Global Note. At such time as all beneficial interests in a Global Note have either been exchanged for Definitive Notes, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, such Global Note shall be returned by the Depositary to the Trustee for cancellation pursuant to its customary practice. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Note is exchanged for Definitive Notes, redeemed, repurchased or canceled, the principal amount of Notes represented by such Global Note shall be reduced and an adjustment shall be made on the books and records of the Trustee (if it is then the Notes Custodian for such Global Note) with respect to such Global Note, by the Trustee or the Notes Custodian, to reflect such reduction.

(e) Obligations with Respect to Transfers and Exchanges of Notes.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Definitive Notes and Global Notes at the Registrar’s or co-registrar’s request.

(ii) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company and the Trustee may require payment of a sum

Westlake Chemical Corporation

3.600% Senior Note due 2026

This note is one of a duly authorized issue of 3.600% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) of Westlake Chemical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings specified in the Indenture (as defined below).

1.	Interest.

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 2026 Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company shall pay such interest semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing February 15, 2017. Interest will be paid on each such Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the 2026 Notes at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”), even if such Interest Payment Date is a Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Interest on the 2026 Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 10, 2016. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2.	Method of Payment.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments of the Redemption Price and Change of Control Payment and principal due at Maturity in respect of the 2026 Notes to Holders who surrender such 2026 Notes to a Paying Agent to collect such payments; provided that if any Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date is an Interest Payment Date, accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder as of the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. The Company will pay all amounts due in respect of the 2026 Notes in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make such payments (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States with respect to 2026 Notes evidenced by Global Securities and any other 2026 Notes with any aggregate principal amount in excess of $1,000,000 the Holder of which has provided wire transfer instructions to the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date or (ii) by check payable in such money mailed to a Holder’s registered address with respect to any certificated 2026 Notes.

3.	Paying Agent and Registrar.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar at its office at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company, any Guarantor or any of its other Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar.

Ex-A-6

4.	Indenture.

The Company issued the 2026 Notes under an Indenture dated as of January 1, 2006 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Eighth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 10, 2016 (the “Eighth Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the 2026 Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). The 2026 Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this 2026 Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The 2026 Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $[ ]. The Company may, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, issue additional 2026 Notes of the same series as the 2026 Notes from time to time without the consent of the Holders. The 2026 Notes initially issued and any additional 2026 Notes subsequently issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single series for all purposes of the Indenture, including, without limitation, with respect to waivers, amendments, supplements, redemptions and offers to purchase. The Indenture provides for the issuance of other series of debt securities (including the 2026 Notes, the “Securities”) thereunder.

5.	Optional Redemption.

The Company may redeem the 2026 Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to May 15, 2026, in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a 2026 Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, for a Redemption Price equal to the greater of:

(a)

100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed; and

(b)

the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the 2026 Notes being redeemed (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points,

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The Company may redeem the 2026 Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after May 15, 2026 (three months prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes), in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a 2026 Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

6.	Mandatory Redemption.

The Company will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the 2026 Notes.

Ex-A-7

7.	Special Mandatory Redemption.

Upon the occurrence of the conditions described in Section 3.13 of the Indenture, the Company will be required to redeem all of the 2026 Notes at the redemption price specified therein.

8.	Notice of Redemption.

The Company shall deliver notice of a redemption not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to Holders of 2026 Notes to be redeemed. Once notice of redemption is delivered, the 2026 Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the applicable Redemption Price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional.

9.	Repurchase at the Option of Holder.

(a)

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to optionally redeem the 2026 Notes, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion ($1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s 2026 Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Change of Control Payment Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date; provided that the principal amount of a note remaining outstanding after a repurchase in part shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b)

Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will be required to deliver a notice to each Holder of the 2026 Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will, among other things, state the Change of Control Payment Date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by applicable law, describe the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control Triggering Event and offer to repurchase the 2026 Notes.

10.	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The 2026 Notes initially are issued in permanent global form. Under certain circumstances described in the Indenture, 2026 Notes may also be issued in the form of certificated 2026 Notes in fully registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental changes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any 2026 Notes selected for redemption in whole or in part (except the unredeemed portion of any Note to be redeemed in

Ex-A-8

part) or any 2026 Notes during a period beginning 15 Business Days prior to the delivery of the relevant notice of redemption or repurchase and ending on the close of business on the day of delivery of such notice.

11.	Persons Deemed Owners.

The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

12.	Amendment; Waiver.

Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of all series affected by such amendment or supplement (acting as one class), and any existing or past Default or Event of Default under, or compliance with any provision of, the Indenture may be waived (other than any continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium (if any) on or interest on the Securities) by the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities of any series or of all series (acting as one class) in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Securities in certain respects set forth in the Indenture.

Without the consent of each Holder affected, the Company may not (i) reduce the amount of Securities whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (ii) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Security; (iii) reduce the principal of or premium on, or change the Stated Maturity of, any Security; (iv) reduce the premium, if any, payable upon the redemption of any Security or change the time at which any Security may or shall be redeemed; (v) change any obligation of the Company or any Guarantor to pay Additional Amounts with respect to any Security; (vi) change the coin or currency in which any Security or any premium or interest with respect thereto is payable; (vii) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on any Security, except as provided in the Indenture; (viii) make any change in the percentage of principal amount of Securities necessary to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or make any change in the provision for modification; (ix) waive a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium (if any) or interest on the Securities or (x) except as provided in the Indenture, release any Guarantor or modify the related Guarantee in any manner materially adverse to the Holders.

A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities under the Indenture, or which modifies the rights of the Holders of Securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under the Indenture of the Holders of Securities of any other series.

13.	Defaults and Remedies.

Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default in the payment of interest that continues for a period of 30 days; (ii) default in any payment of principal of or premium, if any,

Ex-A-9

on the 2026 Notes when due and payable; (iii) failure by the Company or any Guarantor to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in the Indenture or the 2026 Notes, which shall not have been remedied within the specified time period after written notice; (iv) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any Guarantors that are Significant Subsidiaries and (viii) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Guarantee of the 2026 Notes ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under the Indenture and the Guarantee (other than by reason of release of a Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Guarantee). If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes at the time outstanding (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (iii) above, if outstanding Securities of other series are affected by such Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected), may declare the principal amount of all the Securities (or the 2026 Notes) to be due and payable immediately, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the 2026 Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

As set forth in, and subject to the provisions of, the Indenture, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless certain conditions set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations (including that, in some cases, a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Securities (or the 2026 Notes) is required), Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities (or the 2026 Notes) have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting certain proceedings, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.

14.	Trustee Dealings with the Company.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of 2026 Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

15.	Discharge Prior to Maturity.

The Indenture with respect to the 2026 Notes shall be discharged and canceled upon the payment of all of the 2026 Notes and shall be discharged except for certain obligations upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of any combination of funds and U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for such payment as provided in the Indenture.

16.	No Recourse Against Others.

Ex-A-10

any Guarantee, or for any obligations of the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee under the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a 2026 Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issuance of 2026 Notes.

17.	CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the 2026 Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the 2026 Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

18.	Abbreviations.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

Westlake Chemical Corporation

5.000% Senior Note due 2046

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of 5.000% Senior Notes due 2046 (the “2046 Notes”) of Westlake Chemical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings specified in the Indenture (as defined below).

1.	Interest.

The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 2046 Note at the rate per annum shown above. The Company shall pay such interest semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing February 15, 2017. Interest will be paid on each such Interest Payment Date to the Persons who are registered Holders of the 2046 Notes at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”), even if such Interest Payment Date is a Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date, except as provided in Section 2.14 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Interest on the 2046 Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from August 10, 2016. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2.	Method of Payment.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make all payments of the Redemption Price and Change of Control Payment and principal due at Maturity in respect of the 2046 Notes to Holders who surrender such 2046 Notes to a Paying Agent to collect such payments; provided that if any Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or other Maturity Date is an Interest Payment Date, accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Holder as of the immediately preceding Regular Record Date. The Company will pay all amounts due in respect of the 2046 Notes in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Company will make such payments (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to any account maintained in the United States with respect to 2046 Notes evidenced by Global Securities and any other 2046 Notes with any aggregate principal amount in excess of $1,000,000 the Holder of which has provided wire transfer instructions to the Paying Agent at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date or (ii) by check payable in such money mailed to a Holder’s registered address with respect to any certificated 2046 Notes.

3.	Paying Agent and Registrar.

Ex-B-6

4.	Indenture.

The Company issued the 2046 Notes under an Indenture dated as of January 1, 2006 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Eighth Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 10, 2016 (the “Eighth Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the 2046 Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”). The 2046 Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this 2046 Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The 2046 Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $[ ]. The Company may, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, issue additional 2046 Notes of the same series as the 2046 Notes from time to time without the consent of the Holders. The 2046 Notes initially issued and any additional 2046 Notes subsequently issued under the Indenture will be treated as a single series for all purposes of the Indenture, including, without limitation, with respect to waivers, amendments, supplements, redemptions and offers to purchase. The Indenture provides for the issuance of other series of debt securities (including the 2046 Notes, the “Securities”) thereunder.

5.	Optional Redemption.

The Company may redeem the 2046 Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time prior to February 15, 2046, in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a 2046 Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, for a Redemption Price equal to the greater of:

(a)

100% of the principal amount of the 2046 Notes to be redeemed; and

(b)

the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on the 2046 Notes being redeemed (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 45 basis points,

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The Company may redeem the 2046 Notes, at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after February 15, 2046 (six months prior to the maturity date of the 2046 Notes), in principal amounts of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that the unredeemed portion of a 2046 Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2046 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

6.	Mandatory Redemption.

The Company will not be required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the 2046 Notes.

Ex-B-7

7.	Special Mandatory Redemption.

Upon the occurrence of the conditions described in Section 3.13 of the Indenture, the Company will be required to redeem all of the 2046 Notes at the redemption price specified therein.

8.	Notice of Redemption.

The Company shall deliver notice of a redemption not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to Holders of 2046 Notes to be redeemed. Once notice of redemption is delivered, the 2046 Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date at the applicable Redemption Price. A notice of redemption may not be conditional.

9.	Repurchase at the Option of Holder.

(a)

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to optionally redeem the 2046 Notes, each Holder will have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion ($1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s 2046 Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Change of Control Payment Date, subject to the rights of Holders on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date; provided that the principal amount of a 2046 Note remaining outstanding after a repurchase in part shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b)

Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred, or at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company will be required to deliver a notice to each Holder of the 2046 Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice will, among other things, state the Change of Control Payment Date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by applicable law, describe the transaction or transactions constituting the Change of Control Triggering Event and offer to repurchase the 2046 Notes.

10.	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The 2046 Notes initially are issued in permanent global form. Under certain circumstances described in the Indenture, 2046 Notes may also be issued in the form of certificated 2046 Notes in fully registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any transfer taxes or similar governmental changes required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any 2046 Notes selected for redemption in whole or in part (except the unredeemed portion of any Note to be redeemed in

Ex-B-8

part) or any 2046 Notes during a period beginning 15 Business Days prior to the delivery of the relevant notice of redemption or repurchase and ending on the close of business on the day of delivery of such notice.

11.	Persons Deemed Owners.

The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

12.	Amendment; Waiver.

13.	Defaults and Remedies.

Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default in the payment of interest that continues for a period of 30 days; (ii) default in any payment of principal of or premium, if any,

Ex-B-9

on the 2046 Notes when due and payable; (iii) failure by the Company or any Guarantor to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in the Indenture or the 2046 Notes, which shall not have been remedied within the specified time period after written notice; (iv) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any Guarantors that are Significant Subsidiaries and (viii) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Guarantee of the 2046 Notes ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared null and void in a judicial proceeding or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under the Indenture and the Guarantee (other than by reason of release of a Guarantor from its Guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Guarantee). If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the 2046 Notes at the time outstanding (or, in the case of an Event of Default described in clause (iii) above, if outstanding Securities of other series are affected by such Default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Securities so affected), may declare the principal amount of all the Securities (or the 2046 Notes) to be due and payable immediately, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default that will result in the principal amount of the 2046 Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, becoming due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default.

As set forth in, and subject to the provisions of, the Indenture, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless certain conditions set forth in the Indenture have been satisfied. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Securities unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations (including that, in some cases, a majority in principal amount of all outstanding Securities (or the 2046 Notes) is required), Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities (or the 2046 Notes) have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting certain proceedings, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee.

14.	Trustee Dealings with the Company.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of 2046 Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

15.	Discharge Prior to Maturity.

The Indenture with respect to the 2046 Notes shall be discharged and canceled upon the payment of all of the 2046 Notes and shall be discharged except for certain obligations upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of any combination of funds and U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for such payment as provided in the Indenture.

16.	No Recourse Against Others.

Ex-B-10

any Guarantee, or for any obligations of the Company, any Guarantor or the Trustee under the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a 2046 Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release shall be part of the consideration for the issuance of 2046 Notes.

17.	CUSIP Numbers.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the 2046 Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the 2046 Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

18.	Abbreviations.
