PART III — NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Graña y Montero S.A.A. (the “Company”) is unable to file its Annual Report on Form 20-F (the “Form 20-F”) for the period ended December 31, 2016 within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense. As previously disclosed by the Company in Current Reports furnished on Form 6-K, the Company is carrying out additional procedures in connection with the finalization of its consolidated financial statements and the assessment of its internal controls as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016, related to its association with affiliates of Odebrecht S.A. (“Odebrecht”) in certain projects in Peru.

Odebrecht and certain persons affiliated with it entered into a plea agreement with U.S., Brazilian and other authorities in which they indicated that bribery payments were made in connection with certain projects in multiple countries, including Peru. These projects may include certain consortia controlled and operated by Odebrecht affiliates in which the Company held minority investments. In light of these events, the Company has initiated an internal investigation relating to the Company’s participation in the six consortia with Odebrecht in the period 2005-2017. This internal investigation is currently ongoing.

Additionally, on January 24th 2017, the Peruvian government terminated the concession of Gasoducto Sur Peruano S.A., a consortium controlled and operated by Odebrecht affiliates in which the Company held a minority investment, due to failure of the consortium to obtain the required project financing by the stipulated deadline. The termination of the concession, despite the government compensation contemplated under the concession contract, has a material impact on the consolidated financial results and backlog of the Company, that is still under review due to the complexity of the concession.

The Company intends to file its Form 20-F as soon as practicable and within the fifteenth calendar day after its prescribed due date; however, the Company is presently uncertain whether such filing will occur by such date.
