“Section 1.18 Currency Indemnity. U.S. Dollars are the sole currency of account and payment for all sums payable by the Company or the Guarantor under or in connection with the Notes, including damages. Any amount received or recovered in a currency other than U.S. Dollars (whether as a result of, or of the enforcement of, a judgment or order of a court of any jurisdiction, in the winding-up or dissolution of the Guarantor, the Company or otherwise) by any Holder in respect of any sum expressed to be due to it from the Company or the Guarantor shall only constitute a discharge of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, to the extent of the U.S. Dollar amount which the recipient is able to purchase with the amount so received or recovered in that other currency on the date of that receipt or recovery (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that date, on the first date on which it is practicable to do so). If that U.S. Dollar amount is less than the U.S. Dollar amount expressed to be due to the recipient under any Notes, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall indemnify such Holder against any loss sustained by it as a result; and if the amount of U.S. Dollars so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to such Holder, such Holder shall, by accepting the Notes, be deemed to have agreed to repay such excess. In any event, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall indemnify the recipient against the cost of making any such purchase. For the purposes of this Section 1.18, it shall be sufficient for the Holder to certify in a satisfactory manner (indicating the sources of information used) that it would have suffered a loss had an actual purchase of U.S. Dollars been made with the amount so received in that other currency on the date of receipt or recovery (or, if a purchase of U.S. Dollars on such date had not been practicable, on the first date on which it would have been practicable, it being required that the need for a change of date be certified in the manner mentioned above). These indemnities constitute a separate and independent obligation from the other obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Holder and shall continue in full force and effect despite any other judgment, order, claim or proof for a liquidated amount in respect of any sum due under any Notes.”

(e)

the Guarantor shall not purchase any of the Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Offer to Purchase Payment Date an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default resulting from the failure to make a Offer to Purchase Payment when due.

[Form of Reverse of Note]

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more tranches of one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of December 16, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”) as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 3, 2014 (collectively with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Braskem S.A., as Guarantor (herein called the “Guarantor”) and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The full and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on, Additional Amounts, if any, and all other amounts payable under, this Note is unconditionally guaranteed, on a senior unsecured basis, by the Guarantor and such Guarantee shall rank:

equal in right of payment to all other existing and future senior unsecured debt of the Guarantor subject to certain statutory preferences under applicable law, including labor and tax claims;

senior in right of payment to the Guarantor’s subordinated debt; and

effectively subordinated to the debt and other liabilities (including subordinated debt and trade payables) of the Guarantor’s Subsidiaries (other than the Company) and jointly controlled companies and to secured debt of the Guarantor to the extent of such Note.

This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof.

The Notes shall be redeemable, at the option of the Company, the Guarantor or any successor, in whole, but not in part, upon giving not less than five Business Days nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders with a copy to the Trustee (which notice shall be irrevocable), at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, only if (i) the Company, the Guarantor or any successor has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes or the Guarantees (x) in excess of the Additional Amounts that the Company, the Guarantor or any successor would pay if payments in respect of the Notes or the Guarantees were subject to deduction or withholding for Brazilian Taxes at a rate of (A) 15% generally in case of any taxes imposed by Brazil or (B) 25% in case of taxes imposed by Brazil on amounts paid to residents of countries which do not impose any income tax or which impose it at a maximum rate lower than 20% or where the laws of that

country or location impose restrictions on the disclosure of (1) shareholding composition; (2) the ownership of the investment; or (3) the beneficial ownership of income paid to nonresident persons, pursuant to Law No. 9,779, dated January 19, 1999, or (y) in respect of deduction or withholding for Cayman Islands Taxes, in either case, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws or regulations of Brazil or the Cayman Islands (or the jurisdiction of any successor) or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations, which change or amendment occurs after the date of the Indenture and (ii) such obligation cannot be avoided by the Company, the Guarantor or any successor taking reasonable measures available to it; provided, however, that for this purpose reasonable measures shall not include any change in the Company’s, the Guarantor’s or any successor’s jurisdiction of incorporation or organization or location of its principal executive office or registered office. No such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company, the Guarantor or any successor, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of such Notes or the Guarantees were then due.

Prior to the publication or mailing of any notice of redemption pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Company, the Guarantor or any successor shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the obligation of the Company, the Guarantor or any successor, as the case may be, to pay Additional Amounts cannot be avoided by the Company, the Guarantor or any successor taking reasonable measures available to it. The Company, the Guarantor or any successor, as the case may be, shall also deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that the Company, the Guarantor or any successor, as the case may be, would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts due to the changes in tax laws or regulations. The Trustee shall accept such certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding paragraph of this paragraph, in which event it shall be conclusive and binding on the Holders.

The Notes shall be redeemable, at the option of the Company or the Guarantor, in whole or in part, at any time, upon giving not less than five Business Days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders with a copy to the Trustee (which notice shall be irrevocable), at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of the following amounts, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date:

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

the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments.

In determining the present values of the remaining scheduled payments, such payments shall be discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 0.50%.

For the purpose of the previous paragraph, the following terms have the indicated meanings:

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue. In determining the Treasury Rate, the price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) will be assumed to be equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means at least four primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City, New York designated by the Company not later than the fifth Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means (A) the arithmetic average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (B) if the Company obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the arithmetic average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the arithmetic average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer by 3:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means the remaining scheduled payments of the principal and interest that would be due after the applicable Redemption Date but for such redemption; provided, however, that, if such Redemption Date is not an interest payment date, the amount of the next scheduled interest payment thereon will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to such Redemption Date.

In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

If a Change of Control that results in a Ratings Decline occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes under Sections 11.01 or 11.08 of the Indenture or Paragraphs 2 or 3 hereof, the Guarantor, acting on behalf of the Company, shall make, directly or through a Designated Affiliate, an offer to purchase all of the Notes pursuant to an Offer to Purchase described in Section 11.09 of the Indenture at a price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and Additional Amounts, if any, to, but excluding, the Offer to Purchase Payment Date. Not later than 30 days after the

occurrence of a Change of Control that results in a Ratings Decline, the Guarantor or a Designated Affiliate shall send notice of such Offer to Purchase, together with a letter of transmittal, by first class mail, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder at the address of such Holder appearing in the Register or otherwise in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary and containing the information specified in Section 11.09(a) of the Indenture.

On or before the Offer to Purchase Payment Date, the Guarantor or a Designated Affiliate shall, to the extent lawful: (i) accept for payment for all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer to Purchase; (ii) deposit with a Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate Offer to Purchase Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered and (iii) deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes so accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes or portions thereof have been tendered to and purchased by the Guarantor or a Designated Affiliate.

Notwithstanding Section 11.09(a) of the Indenture or this Paragraph 4, the Guarantor shall not be required to make an Offer to Purchase upon a Change of Control that results in a Ratings Decline if (i) a third party makes an offer to purchase in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in Section 11.09 of the Indenture applicable to an Offer to Purchase made by the Guarantor and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such offer, or (ii) a notice of redemption for all Outstanding Notes has been given pursuant to Section 11.01 of the Indenture and this Paragraph 4, unless and until there is a default in payment of the applicable Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the Indenture, an Offer to Purchase may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditioned upon the consummation of such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time the Offer to Purchase is made.

The Guarantor shall not purchase any of the Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Offer to Purchase Payment Date an Event of Default, other than an Event of Default resulting from the failure to make a Offer to Purchase Payment when due.

The Guarantor and any Designated Affiliate will comply with Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act (to the extent applicable) and all other applicable laws in making any Offer to Purchase. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture and this Paragraph 4 shall be deemed to be modified to the extent necessary to permit such compliance. If the provisions of such securities laws or regulations cannot be complied with as a result of such deemed modifications, the Guarantor shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under Section 11.09 of the Indenture or this Paragraph 4 by virtue thereof.

In the event that the Holders of not less than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes accept an Offer to Purchase and the Guarantor

or a third party purchases all the notes held by such Holders, the Company and the Guarantor will have the right, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Trustee), given not more than 30 days following the purchase pursuant to the Offer to Purchase described above, to redeem all of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at the purchase price equal to that in the Offer to Purchase plus, to the extent not included in the Offer to Purchase payment, accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes that remain outstanding, to the date of redemption.

5.	The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Note or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Note, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

6.	If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Company, the Guarantor or its or their affiliates may at any time purchase Notes from investors who are willing to sell from time to time, either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. Notes so purchased by the Company or Guarantor may, in their discretion, be held, resold or canceled, but will only be resold in compliance with applicable requirements or exemptions under the relevant securities laws.

All payments by the Company and the Guarantor in respect of the Notes or the Guarantee, as the case may be, shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of, Brazilian Taxes or Cayman Islands Taxes, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In that event, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay to each Holder such Additional Amounts as may be necessary in order that every net payment made by the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, on each Note or Guarantee after deduction or withholding for or on account of any Brazilian Taxes or Cayman Islands Taxes shall not be less than the amount then due and payable on such Note or Guarantee.

9.	The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply to or in respect of:

(a)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between a Holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, a trust, a partnership or a corporation), on the one hand, and Brazil or the Cayman Islands, on the other hand (including, without limitation, such Holder (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or having been engaged in a trade or business or present therein or having, or having had, a permanent establishment therein), other than the mere receipt of such payment or the ownership or holding of a Note or Guarantee;

(b)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been so imposed but for the presentation by a Holder for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;

(c)

any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge to the extent that such tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge would not have been imposed but for the failure of a Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with Brazil or the Cayman Islands of such Holder if (A) such compliance is required or imposed by law as a precondition to exemption from all or a part of such tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge and (B) at least 30 days prior to the date on which the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall apply this Clause (iii), the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have notified all Holders of Notes that some or all of the Holders of Notes shall be required to comply with such requirement;

(d)

any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise or personal property or similar tax, assessment or governmental charge;

(e)

any withholding or deduction imposed on a payment to an individual and that is required to be made pursuant to any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings;

(f)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would have been avoided by such Holder presenting the relevant Note (if presentation is required) or requesting that such payment be made to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union;

(g)

any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable other than by deduction or withholding from payments of principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on a Note; or

(h)

any combination of the above.

10.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding paragraph, the Company, the Guarantor and any Paying Agent, the Trustee or any other Person shall be entitled to make any deduction or withholding without any liability, and shall not be required to pay any additional amounts with respect to any such deduction or withholding, imposed on or in respect of any Note pursuant to Section 1471 through Section 1474 of the Code (“FATCA”), any treaty, law, regulation or other official guidance enacted by any jurisdiction in which the Company or the Guarantor is organized, or in which payments on the Notes are made (each such jurisdiction, a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), implementing FATCA, or any agreement between the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee or a Paying Agent and the United States, a Taxing Jurisdiction or any authority of any of the foregoing implementing FATCA.

11.	The Company hereby covenants with the Trustee that it will promptly inform the Trustee if it determines in its reasonable discretion that any payment made by it is a

payment which could be subject to FATCA withholding if a recipient of such payment had not complied with obligations imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and any regulations, or agreements thereunder or official interpretations thereof or any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and another jurisdiction facilitating the implementation thereof or any law implementing such an intergovernmental agreement (including obligations to deliver proper documentation establishing the recipient’s status) at the time such payment was made.

12.

The Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, registration or the making of payments in respect of the Notes and the Guarantee, excluding any such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction outside of Brazil or the Cayman Islands other than those resulting from, or required to be paid in connection with, the enforcement of the Notes and the Guarantee following the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.

13.

No Additional Amounts shall be paid with respect to a payment on any Note or the Guarantee to a Holder that is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or beneficial owner would not have been entitled to receive payment of the Additional Amounts had the beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder of the Note or the Guarantee.

14.

The Company or the Guarantor, as applicable, shall provide the Trustee with the official acknowledgment of the relevant taxing authority (or, if such acknowledgment is not available, other reasonable documentation) evidencing any payment of Brazilian Taxes or Cayman Islands Taxes in respect of which the Company or the Guarantor has paid any Additional Amounts. Copies of such documentation shall be made available to the Holders of the Notes or the Paying Agents, as applicable, upon request therefor.

15.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions (i) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding of any series to be affected under the Indenture, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and (ii) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding of any series to be affected under the Indenture, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

16.

As set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Note of this series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, this Note or for any remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of this series shall have made written request, and offered indemnity or security satisfactory to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal of the Outstanding Notes of this series a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal (and premium, if any) or interest on this Note on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

17.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on this Note at the times, Place of Payment and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed or to convert or exchange this Note as provided in the Indenture.

18.

The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of U.S.$200,000 and any integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Note Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company at any Place of Payment, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Note Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

19.	No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

20.

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

21.	The Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
