Quad Draw?

I was watching a YouTube tutorial last night where the instructor was using "Quad Draw" (Maya 2014) Is this available in Maya 2013, and how do I navigate to get to the tools?

It is technically. But you have to purchase it as "Nex."

There is the Mesh>Create Polygon Tool but it is not as intuitive (or functional) as the MTK/Nex quad draw tool.
