Item 3.
 Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

On June 28, 2006, in a private placement transaction and pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among Hill International, Inc., Arpeggio Acquisition Corporation and Messrs. Irvin E. Richter, David L. Richter and Brady H. Richter (the “Merger Agreement”), the Filers acquired their shares of the Issuer in exchange for their shares of Hill International, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“Old Hill”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Old Hill merged with Arpeggio Acquisition Corporation, and Arpeggio Acquisition Corporation was the surviving company of the merger. Immediately upon consummation of the merger Arpeggio Acquisition Corporation changed its name to Hill International, Inc. (“New Hill” or the “Issuer”). On the date of the merger, a number of the shares of common stock of New Hill owned by the Filers were acquired pursuant to the merger transaction in exchange for their shares of Old Hill.

On April 6, 2007, pursuant to an earn-out right arising under the Merger Agreement, the Company issued a total of 2,300,000 shares of its common stock (the “2006 Earn-Out Shares”), which amount included an aggregate of 2,204,093 shares issued to the Filers. The 2006 Earn-Out shares which were issued to the Filers constitute part of the consideration for the shares of Old Hill that the Filers exchanged in the merger.
 
10


Item 4.
 Purpose of Transaction.

The Filers acquired the shares of common stock of the Issuer for investment purposes. The Filers may in the future be awarded stock pursuant to future earn-out awards, or they may be awarded stock or options to purchase stock of the Issuer pursuant to compensatory incentive plans of the Issuer. For description of the June 28, 2006 merger transaction, reference is made to the disclosure in the Current Report on Form 8-K (File no. 000-50781) filed by the Issuer with the SEC on July 5, 2006, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Concurrently with the closing of the merger, Messrs. Irvin E. Richter, David L. Richter and Brady H. Richter, on the one hand, and Mr. Eric Rosenfeld and Mr. Arnaud Ajdler, on the other hand entered into a voting agreement dated as of June 28, 2006. The parties to the voting agreement currently collectively beneficially own approximately 71.1% of the outstanding stock of the Issuer. The voting agreement requires that each individual member of the two groups of signatories to the voting agreement vote for the designees of the other group as the directors of the Issuer until immediately following the election at the annual meeting of stockholders that will be held in 2007. The voting agreement is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 7.2 to this Schedule 13D/A.

Item 5.
 Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) and (b): As of April 12, 2007 the Filers beneficially and directly owned 15,663,847 shares of common stock consisting of 8,957,075 shares of common stock owned by Irvin L. Richter, 3,866,465 shares of common stock owned by David L. Richter, 2,237,375 shares of common stock owned by Brady H. Richter and 602,932 shares of common stock owned by Stuart S. Richter. Each individual Filer has sole power to vote and to dispose of the shares which he owns. In addition, each Filer may be deemed to share the power to vote and dispose of those shares owned by each of the other three Filers.

(c): None.

(d): No person other than the Filers has the right to receive or the power to direct receipt of dividends, or the proceeds from the sale of the common stock of the Issuer.

(e): Not Applicable.

Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships
With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 

Messrs. Irvin E. Richter, David L. Richter and Brady H. Richter are parties to Lock-up Agreements with the Issuer pursuant to which each of them has agreed that they will not sell or otherwise transfer any of the shares of common stock of the issuer acquired by them in the merger until December 31, 2007, subject to certain exceptions, including the right to use their shares to secure margin loans not to exceed 20% of the value of the shares at the time that the loans are made.

Messrs. Irvin E. Richter, David L. Richter and Brady H. Richter have entered into a voting agreement with Messrs. Eric Rosenfeld and Arnaud Ajdler, which agreement requires that the Richter signatories to the voting agreement agree to vote for the designees of Messrs. Rosenfeld and Ajdler as Directors of the Issuer and that Messrs. Rosenfeld and Ajdler agree to vote for the designees of the Richter signatories to the voting agreement, in both cases until immediately following the election that will be held at the annual meeting of stockholders of the Issuer in 2007. The voting agreement is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 7.2 to this Schedule 13D/A.
 
11


The Filers, together with other stockholders of Old Hill who received shares of the Issuer in the merger have agreed, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, to deposit 12% of such shares into escrow. The shares are in escrow to secure any indemnification claims by the Issuer. Claims for indemnification may be asserted by the Issuer once damages exceed $500,000 and are indemnifiable to the extent that damages exceed that amount. However, claims with respect to taxes and certain other matters are not subject to such threshold. Shares still in escrow on December 30, 2010, will be released on the next business day even if claims to which they relate are not then resolved. The Escrow Agreement was attached as Annex F to the Definitive Proxy Statement filed by the Issuer on June 6, 2006 and is incorporated herein by reference.
