Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

Disposition of Empagio

On May 25, 2007, the registrant, Halo Technology Holdings, Inc. (the "Company" or "Halo") completed the transactions contemplated by that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Empagio Purchase Agreement") entered into with Empagio Acquisition LLC (the "Buyer") and the Company’s subsidiary, Empagio, Inc. (the "Seller" or "Empagio") dated May 17, 2007.

Pursuant to this agreement, the Company caused Empagio to sell its assets to the Buyer, in exchange for a purchase price consisting of $16 million, plus certain Contingent Payments and assumption of Empagio’s business liabilities. The cash portion of the purchase price consists of the following: (i) $250,000 was paid as a deposit upon the execution of the Empagio Purchase Agreement; (ii) $13,227,160 was paid upon Closing ($13,500,000 less the Working Capital Underage); (iii) $250,000 was held in escrow pending resolution of any working capital determinations after the Closing, and (iv) $2 million in Deferred Payments (which shall bear interest of LIBOR plus 4%) to be paid $1 million on September 30, 2008, and the remaining $1 million on June 30, 2009. The Contingent Payments consist of ten percent of the proceeds of any sale of the Buyer, to the extent such proceeds exceed $1 million, provided that the sale of the Buyer occurs in the next five years. Accordingly, the Company disposed of a significant amount of assets, the assets and business of its Empagio subsidiary.

A copy of the Empagio Purchase Agreement was attached as Exhibit 10.146 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on May 21, 2007, and is incorporated herein by reference. Capitalized terms used in this Item of this Current Report and not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in the Empagio Purchase Agreement.





Item 2.04 Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

As described above in Item 2.01, on May 25, 2007, the Company caused its Empagio subsidiary to sell its assets. Pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement (as amended, the "Credit Agreement") dated August 2, 2005 between the Company, the Subsidiaries of the Company and Fortress Credit Corp. ("Fortress"), the Company became obligated to make a mandatory prepayment of outstanding principal on the Loan under the Credit Agreement. The Company satisfied this obligation by making the payments described in that certain Amendment Agreement No. 4 ("Amendment No. 4") between the Company and Fortress relating to the Credit Agreement.

Pursuant to Amendment No. 4, (i) the Company paid Fortress $250,000 which it had received as a deposit from the Empagio purchaser on May 17, 2007, (ii) the Company paid to Fortress, simultaneously with the closing of the sale of Empagio, $12,500,000, and (iii) the Company agreed to pay, on July 31, 2007, an additional $250,000. This total of $12,750,000 in payments which have been made to Fortress was applied (i) first, to the payment of outstanding fees and fees incurred in connection with Amendment No. 4, which fees totaled $400,000, and (ii) second, the remaining $12,350,000 to reduce the principal amount of the Loan under the Credit Agreement. The final $250,000 due to Fotress on July 31, 2007 will also be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.

A copy of Amendment No. 4 was attached as Exhibit 10.147 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 21, 2007, and is incorporated herein by reference.
