Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
 
On December 10, 2012, GlyEco Acquisition Corp. #4, Inc. an Arizona corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of GlyEco, Inc. (the “Subsidiary”) and GlyEco, Inc. (“the Company”) entered into a transaction (the “Transaction”) with Full Circle Manufacturing Group, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“Full Circle”), and with Joseph A. Ioia, sole shareholder of Full Circle and Metrolube and sole member of NY Terminals (“Ioia”), respectively.

Full Circle operates a business located in Elizabeth, New Jersey, relating to processing recyclable glycol streams, antifreeze, and selling glycol as remanufactured product.  It is one of the largest glycol recyclers in North America. NY Terminals owns the real property at which Full Circle operates its business (the “Premises”), and Metrolube supplies Full Circle with a substantial amount of recyclable glycol feedstock, which it obtains through various by-product handling arrangements.

The Transaction is comprised of multiple agreements entered into among the individual parties.  The agreements include a Manufacturing and Distribution Agreement (the “M&D Agreement”) by and between the Subsidiary and Full Circle, and an Assignment of Intellectual Property (the “IP Assignment”) by and between the Company and Ioia.

Pursuant to the M&D Agreement, Full Circle agrees to perform the manufacturing and distribution services relating to its glycol recycling business, utilizing the IP (as defined below) acquired by the Subsidiary and including the equipment and Premises leased by the Subsidiary, to exclusively produce remanufactured glycol for the benefit of the Subsidiary.  Furthermore, to ensure the continued profitability of the business, Metrolube has agreed in the M&D Agreement to provide the Subsidiary with all of the recyclable glycol feedstock that it obtains through its by-product handling arrangements.

Pursuant to the IP Assignment, Ioia sold to the Subsidiary the worldwide right, title, and interest in the exclusive glycol remanufacturing process (the “IP”) used by Full Circle in consideration for $2,000,000 provided by the Company.  Furthermore, the Subsidiary licensed the IP to Ioia, and Ioia sub-licensed the IP to Full Circle for the purpose of executing the M&D Agreement described above.

The foregoing description of the IP Assignment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Assignment of Intellectual Property, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

As additional consideration to Ioia, the Company has issued 3,000,000 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001.  The Company entered into an Escrow Agreement with Ioia by which an escrow agent will hold 1,000,000 of those shares in escrow to secure performance under the Transaction.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. 

To the extent required by Item 3.02 of Form 8-K, the information contained or incorporated in Item 2.01 of this Form 8-K is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.02.
