Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 21, 2014, Platform Specialty Products Corporation (“Platform”) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Nalozo S.à.r.l. (the “Seller”) pursuant to which Platform agreed to acquire Arysta LifeScience Limited for approximately $3.51 billion, consisting of $2.91 billion in cash, subject to working capital and other adjustments, and $600 million of new Series B convertible preferred stock of Platform (the “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”).

On December 2, 2014, Platform and the Seller entered into an amendment to the Agreement (the “Amendment”) pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed that the redemption price for each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock at maturity must be paid only in shares of common stock of Platform (rather than, at the option of Platform, cash or shares of common stock of Platform).

The foregoing summary of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
