ITEM 2.       IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

                  (a, b, c and f) This Statement is being filed by (i) NOVA, an
Alberta, Canada, corporation, the principal business of which is the
manufacturing and marketing of commodity chemicals and (ii) NOVA Petrochemicals
Ltd. ("NPL"), which is a holding company, the principal business of which,

ITEM 3.       SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

                  Pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated December 8,
1993, as amended by an amendment dated January 14, 1994 (the "Asset Purchase
Agreement"), among the Corporation, Methanex Inc., a Nevada corporation and an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation ("MX Inc."), NCL and Novacor
Chemicals Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary
of NCL ("NCI"), on January 14, 1994 (a) NCL sold to the Corporation
substantially all of its assets pertaining to the production, distribution, sale
and purchase of methanol (the "Methanol Business") and NCI sold to MX Inc.
certain of its agreements and arrangements pertaining to the Methanol Business
in the United States. In consideration therefor, the Corporation issued
22,880,575 of its Shares to NCL and MX Inc. paid NCI cash in the amount of
Cdn.$1,328,603.

                  Pursuant to a Subscription and Registration Rights Agreement
dated December 8, 1993, as amended by an amendment dated January 14, 1994 (the
"Subscription Agreement"), among the Corporation, NCL and NPL, on January 14,
1994, NPL purchased 2,119,425 Shares from the Corporation for Cdn.$23,578,603 in
cash, simultaneous with the closing of the transactions contemplated in the
Asset Purchase Agreement. The Corporation agreed to register the 2,119,425
Shares issued under the Subscription Agreement and the 22,880,575 Shares issued
under the Asset Purchase Agreement, as well as any other Shares owned by NCL or
its affiliates, from time to time at NCL's discretion, so that such Shares can
be sold publicly in Canada or, in certain circumstances, in the United States
using the multijurisdictional disclosure system.

                  In the Subscription Agreement, the Corporation also granted
NCL an option to purchase that number of additional voting securities of the
Corporation (the "Voting Securities") as are then required: (i) to maintain the
then current aggregate percentage ownership of Voting Securities held by NCL and
its affiliates, calculated on a fully diluted basis; and (ii) to maintain the
then current aggregate percentage rights of NCL and its affiliates to vote for
the election of members of the Corporation's board of directors. On any exercise
of the option, the price to be paid by NCL or its affiliates shall be the lowest
price at which the Corporation offers the securities to other purchasers of such
securities and the consideration shall be payable in cash regardless of the form
of consideration payable by such other purchasers. The option expires when NCL
and its affiliates no longer hold at least an aggregate of 5% of the outstanding
Shares.

                  Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement dated January 14, 1994
(the "MG Agreement") between NPL and Metallgesellschaft Corp. ("MG"), reflecting
a terms sheet dated December 9, 1993 (the "MG Terms Sheet"), on January 14,
1994, NPL purchased from MG 6,443,000 of the Shares for an aggregate purchase
price of $49,997,680. NPL's acquisition of the MG Shares occurred concurrently
with the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement and the
Subscription Agreement. In connection with the MG Terms Sheet, MG and NCL have
entered into a letter agreement dated January 14, 1994 (the "MG Letter"),
providing that, for so long as MG and certain specified affiliates own at least
4,000,000 Shares, MG will give NCL a first opportunity to acquire 10,573,762
Shares beneficially owned by MG and MG Methanol Corp. and registered in the
nominee name of Smith Barney Shearson Inc. for the account of Lehman Brothers
Inc. if MG or MG Methanol Corp. intends to sell any such Shares.

                  Pursuant to an Agency Agreement dated as of December 9, 1993
(the "Agency Agreement") (confirming a term sheet dated December 9, 1993 (the
"FC Term Sheet") between Fletcher Challenge and its subsidiary, 165109 Canada
Inc. (together, "FC"), and Gordon Capital Corporation et al. ("Gordon") and
between NOVA and Gordon) among Gordon Capital Corporation, RBC Dominion
Securities, Burns Fry Limited, FC, the Corporation and NPL, on December 30,
1993, NPL purchased from FC 15,503,876 Shares for a total purchase price of
Cdn.$166,666,667, of which Cdn.$62,015,504 was paid upon closing,
Cdn.$54,263,566 on December 30, 1994, and Cdn.$50,387,597 on December 29, 1995.
The closing of the transaction contemplated by the Agency Agreement occurred on
December 30, 1993, simultaneously with the closing of the public offering by FC
and MG of 58,645,976 and 1,200,000 Shares, respectively, for an aggregate
purchase price of Cdn.$643,344,242 payable on an installment basis.

                  The first installment of funds to acquire the Shares under the
Agency Agreement were obtained in full from the proceeds of borrowing on
December 30, 1993 under NOVA's commercial paper program. The December 30, 1994
and the December 29, 1995 installments were drawn on lines of credit and further
paid down by working capital.

                  Funds to acquire the Shares under the Subscription Agreement
and the MG Agreement were obtained in part from borrowings under a credit
facility (the "NCL Credit Facility") between NCL and the six largest Canadian
chartered banks (Toronto Dominion Bank, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Bank
of Nova Scotia, Bank of Montreal, Royal Bank of Canada and National Bank of
Canada) and from proceeds from the sale of Novalta Resources Inc. to Seagull
Energy Corporation in January 1994.

                  In a letter agreement dated December 9, 1993 (the
"Differential Letter Agreement") with 165109 Canada Inc., NOVA agreed to pay to
165109 Canada Inc. an amount (not to exceed Cdn.$26,465,529) equal to the
product of (i) the number of Shares specified by 165109 Canada Inc. (not to
exceed an aggregate of 8,000,000) times (ii) the excess of the market price (as
defined in the Differential Letter Agreement) for the Shares as of the date of
the notice over Cdn.$11.00. Such a notice could be given from time to time
through and including March 31, 1995. NOVA assigned its obligations under the
Differential Letter Agreement to NPL. On May 5, 1994, NPL paid Cdn.$26,465,529
in cash to 165109 Canada Inc. in satisfaction of its obligations under the
Differential Letter Agreement. Such payment was funded by a loan to NPL from
NCL, which was funded by a borrowing under the NCL Credit Facility.

                  The Asset Purchase Agreement, the Subscription Agreement, the
MG Agreement and the Agency Agreement are collectively referred to as the
"Purchase Agreements".

ITEM 4.       PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

                  NOVA holds the Shares for investment purposes. NOVA
continually reviews its own strategic objectives together with the Corporation's
business affairs and financial position, as well as conditions in the securities
markets and general economic and industry conditions. Based on such evaluation
and review, NOVA will continue to consider various alternative

courses of action, which could include purchasing additional Shares, or selling
some or all of the Shares.

                  Three directors or officers of NOVA Chemicals Corporation were
elected to the Corporation's Board of Directors: Jeffrey M. Lipton, Daniel W.
Boivin and A. Terry Poole. There is no agreement by the Corporation or MG
specifically granting to NOVA the right to designate in the future any directors
to serve on the Corporation's Board of Directors.

                  Other than as discussed above and in Item 3, NOVA has no plans
or proposals which relate to or would result in (i) the acquisition of
additional securities of the Corporation or the disposition of securities of the
Corporation; (ii) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger,
reorganization or liquidation involving the Corporation or any of its
subsidiaries; (iii) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the
Corporation or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the present board of
directors or management of the Corporation, including any plans or proposals to
change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the
board (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy
of the Corporation; (vi) any other material change in the Corporation's business
or corporate structure; (vii) changes in the Corporation's charter, bylaws or
instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
acquisition of control of the Corporation by any person; (viii) causing a class
of the Corporation's securities to be delisted from a national securities
exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation
system of a registered national securities association; (ix) a class of the
Corporation's equity securities becoming eligible for termination of
registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities and Exchange Act of
1934; or (x) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

ITEM 5.       INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

                  (a) NOVA is the beneficial owner of 22,880,575 Shares issued

common shares were outstanding), after giving effect to the issuance of the
Shares pursuant to the Purchase Agreements and assuming no other change in the
outstanding Shares.

                  NPL is the beneficial owner of 24,066,301 Shares as a result
of the consummation of the transactions described in the Agency Agreement, the

dispositive power with NOVA as to such Shares, constituting approximately 13.9%
