ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.

On February 26, 2008, Union Street Acquisition Corp. (“USQ”) entered into definitive agreements to simultaneously acquire in separate acquisitions 100% of the membership interests of Razor Business Strategy Consultants LLC (“Razor”), and 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Archway Marketing Services, Inc. (“Archway”), an indirect subsidiary of AHL Services, Inc. (“AHL”), as disclosed in that Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2008.

In light of current market conditions, there is uncertainty as to the consummation of the proposed acquisitions of Razor and Archway (the “Acquisitions”). Accordingly, USQ’s Board of Directors has determined that it is in the best interests of USQ and its stockholders to explore alternatives in the event the Acquisitions are not completed, with the intention of potentially increasing the funds available to USQ’s creditors and stockholders in the event of a liquidation. The exploration of such alternatives does not alter our intentions to move forward to a special meeting for the purpose of allowing the stockholders of USQ to vote on the Acquisitions in accordance with the charter documents of USQ.

To facilitate any discussions regarding an alternative transaction, on June 23, 2008, USQ entered into an agreement (the “Argenbright Agreement”) with Archway and Argenbright, Inc. (“Argenbright”), whereby USQ agreed to waive Argenbright’s compliance with the “non-solicitation” provisions of the Archway Purchase Agreement, dated February 26, 2008 (the "Archway Purchase Agreement") and release all claims that USQ may have against Argenbright in connection with the presentation of an alternative transaction by certain principals of USQ to Argenbright, provided that the pursuit of such an alternative transaction does not hinder or delay the consummation of the Acquisitions by USQ. In consideration for such waiver, Argenbright agreed to waive its right to receive a termination fee as set forth in the Archway Purchase Agreement, subject to the consummation of an alternative transaction on or before the earlier of twenty (20) days after termination of the Archway Purchase Agreement, or October 31, 2008. The Argenbright Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

On June 23, 2008, A. Clayton Perfall, Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of USQ and President, Chief Executive Officer, a director and 4.6% shareholder of AHL and also a director and officer of its subsidiaries, and Brian H. Burke, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and a member of USQ’s Board of Directors and a non-executive officer of AHL and certain of its subsidiaries, entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Argenbright. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, Messrs. Perfall and Burke and Argenbright agreed that if Messrs. Perfall and Burke, or their designee, are willing to enter into an alternative transaction to acquire Archway, then Messrs. Perfall and Burke, on behalf of themselves or their designee, and Argenbright will negotiate in good faith to enter into a stock purchase agreement on substantially the same terms as are in the Archway Purchase Agreement, including the same price, the same representations and warranties, the same covenants and indemnities and otherwise substantially similar except to the extent related to differences in the nature of any such buyer and the fact that it may not be a SPAC, and which shall have a condition to the closing of any alternative transaction be the failure of USQ stockholders to approve the Acquisitions. In the event that the Archway Purchase Agreement is terminated, Messrs. Perfall and Burke and Argenbright agreed to use their reasonable best efforts to consummate such an alternative transaction, provided that the closing of any such alternative transaction occur prior to the earlier of twenty (20) days after termination of the Archway Purchase Agreement, or October 31, 2008, after which date the parties’ obligations under the Letter Agreement will expire and be of no further force or effect. The Letter Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
