Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On November 9, 2007, ICF International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ICF”), ICF Consulting Group, Inc. (“ICF Consulting”), Simat, Helliesen & Eichner, Inc. (“SH&E”), and other parties entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which SH&E will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of ICF Consulting. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, among other things, ICF will pay an aggregate purchase price of approximately $51.0 million, comprised of the following: (i) a net closing cash amount of approximately $40.7 million, subject to a working capital adjustment and further reduced by any unpaid SH&E expenses relating to the merger transaction and an amount up to $800,000 to be held by the stockholders’ representative for expenses; (ii) the remainder of a $1.0 million escrow intended to cover the amount by which the working capital of SH&E immediately prior to the merger closing is less than a target working capital amount; (iii) the remainder of a $5.0 million escrow intended to fund any indemnification claims of ICF and ICF Consulting with respect to the breach of representations, warranties and covenants of SH&E and its stockholders in the Merger Agreement; (iv) the amount of SH&E’s accounts receivable immediately prior to the merger closing collected after closing through December 31, 2008 that is in excess of SH&E’s accounts receivable net of reserves as reflected on its balance sheet immediately prior to closing, as reduced by related tax liabilities of ICF on such collections; and (v) approximately $4.3 million in respect of SH&E’s redemption prior to closing of shares of its common stock held in its Employee Stock Ownership Plan. The closing of the merger is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to occur by the end of the calendar year.

A copy of the press release announcing the execution of the Merger Agreement is also attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.

Other than in respect of the Merger Agreement, there is no material relationship between ICF or its affiliates and SH&E or its affiliates.
