Item 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 1, 2011, the Registrant (“GreenHouse”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Premier Alliance Group, Inc., (“Premier”) a Delaware corporation. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Registrant would merge with a newly formed subsidiary of Premier and become a wholly owned subsidiary of Premier.

The Registrant’s stockholders would receive, in the aggregate, common stock of Premier representing 40% of the fully diluted Premier common stock (excluding Premier options and warrants) after issuance of the same (the “Merger Shares”), less certain shares described below. Premier holds GreenHouse convertible debt and would deduct the Premier shares allocable to the conversion of such debt from the Merger Shares. Certain other advances from Premier to GreenHouse would be similarly converted. Accordingly, the actual number of Merger Shares will effectively equal less than 40%.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a portion of the Merger Shares which otherwise would be delivered to the controlling shareholders of GreenHouse, and certain officers and directors, totaling approximately 30% of the Merger Shares, will be held in escrow pending the achievement of certain revenue goals and the satisfaction of certain indemnification obligations.

Premier is filing a registration statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission which would serve as its prospectus and GreenHouse’s proxy statement in connection with this transaction and the prospective issuance of the Merger Shares. Following the effectiveness of such registration statement, GreenHouse expects to hold a special meeting of stockholders to approve the merger, and the parties expect to close the transaction shortly thereafter. It is expected that the merger will be consummated in the first quarter of 2012.

Each of the parties is a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and its reports can be found by going to www.sec.gov, and then search for companies, and inserting name of Premier Alliance Group, Inc. and/or GreenHouse Holdings, Inc.
