Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On August 31, 2011, Deltak, L.L.C. (“Deltak”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Global Power Equipment Group Inc. (“Global Power”), completed the previously announced sale of substantially all of its assets to Hamon Acquisitions, Inc. (“Hamon Acquisitions”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hamon Corporation, which, in turn, is a subsidiary of Hamon & Compagnie International SA. Deltak’s business focuses on the design and construction of specialty boiler systems and small to mid-sized heat recovery steam generator systems and the provision of field support and quality assurance services with respect thereto.

The sale was made pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of August 5, 2011, by and between Deltak and Hamon Acquisitions. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, Hamon Acquisitions acquired substantially all of the assets of Deltak in exchange for $31.0 million in cash (the “Purchase Price”), subject to specified working capital adjustments. A description of the Agreement can be found in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Global Power on August 9, 2011, which is incorporated by reference herein. Such description is a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to Global Power’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed on August 15, 2011 and incorporated by reference herein.

Other than in respect to this transaction, there are no material relationships between Hamon Acquisitions and Hamon Corporation or its affiliates, directors, officers or associates and Deltak and Global Power or their affiliates, directors, officers or associates. The Purchase Price was determined through arms-length negotiation between Hamon Acquisitions and Hamon Corporation, on one hand, and Deltak and Global Power, on the other.

Global Power’s press release, issued on September 1, 2011 announcing the completion of the sale, is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
