Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously reported, on March 1, 2017 (the “Effective Date”), Tecnoglass Inc. (the “Company”) entered into and consummated a purchase agreement, as amended (the “Purchase Agreement”), with Giovanni Monti (the “Seller”), the owner of 100% of the outstanding shares of Giovanni Monti and Partners Consulting and Glazing Contractors (“GM&P”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired all of the shares of GM&P from the Seller for a purchase price of US$35 million. An initial US$6 million of the purchase price was payable and paid in cash within 60 days from the Effective Date. The remaining US$29 million of the purchase price was payable on or before May 15, 2018.

On May 4, 2018, the Company paid the Seller an additional US$6 million of cash on hand and entered into an agreement with the Seller to settle the remaining balance of the purchase price (the “Settlement Agreement”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the remaining US$23 million of the purchase price was satisfied through the issuance of a US$10 million junior subordinated note (the “Note”) and the issuance of an aggregate of US$13 million of ordinary shares of the Company valued at $10.50 per share (or an aggregate of 1,238,095 ordinary shares of the Company). The Note will have semi-annual interest-only payments at a fixed rate of 6% per annum and matures in March 2022.

On May 7, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing the foregoing.
