SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE TO DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT

The following supplemental information should be read in conjunction with the Definitive Proxy Statement, which should be read in its entirety. To the extent that information in this supplement differs from or updates information contained in the Definitive Proxy Statement, the information in this supplement shall supersede the information in the Definitive Proxy Statement. All page references are to pages of the Definitive Proxy Statement, and all terms used below, unless otherwise defined, shall have the meanings set forth in the Definitive Proxy Statement.

The following disclosure is added after the first full paragraph on page 8:

On October 19, 2022, an additional lawsuit captioned Brian Dixon v. Hill International, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-01374, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and on October 21, 2022, another lawsuit captioned Sean Riley v. Hill International, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-08983, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Additional Complaints”). The Additional Complaints contain substantially similar allegations and claims for relief as the Stein Complaint. The Company and the Company Board believe that the claims asserted in the Additional Complaints are without merit.

The following disclosure is added as the last sentence in the second full paragraph on page 22:

The confidentiality agreement contained a standstill provision and a customary “don’t ask/don’t waive” provision prohibiting GISI from requesting that the Company amend or waive the standstill provisions. All executed confidentiality agreements with other potential acquirers contained similar “don’t ask, don’t waive” provisions and none of such confidentiality agreements prohibited the making of any confidential, non-public proposals to the Company Board for a potential transaction with the Company.

The following disclosure is added as the last sentence in the last full paragraph on page 35:

To Hill’s knowledge, during the negotiations between Hill and GISI, no commitments were made for continued employment of any member of Hill executive management.

The following disclosure is added after the third sentence in the last paragraph on page 35:

Representatives of Houlihan Lokey disclosed to the Company Board that Houlihan Lokey has provided valuation services to GISI in the past, that the members of the team advising the Company in connection with the merger were not involved in the delivery of such services to GISI, and that Houlihan Lokey was not representing GISI in connection with the merger.
