Dear Henry:
 
This letter reflects the understanding between you, Gulfsteam and Beacon, on one

Obligations, HPI has agreed to, on the date of your execution and delivery of
this letter to HPI:
 
1.  Issue and deliver to you 100,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of
HPI’s common stock (the “Shares”). HPI further agrees that it will register the
resale of the Shares on the next registration statement (other than any
registration on Form S-4, S-8 or any other similarly inappropriate form) that it
files with the Securities and Exchange Commission; and 
 
2.  Transfer to you, via wire transfer, $200,000.
 
By execution of this letter below, upon receipt by you of the above-referenced
payments and stock, you, Gulfstream and Beacon hereby:
 
(i) agree that such payments and stock shall constitute payment in full of the
Obligations as of the date of execution and delivery of the letter;
 
(ii) represent and warrant to HPI that there are no other liabilities on account
of any indebtedness owed by HPI or its subsidiaries to you, Gulfstream and
Beacon; and
 
(iii) release HPI and its directors and officers from any and all claims,
demands, actions, causes of action, suits, debts, damages, judgments,
obligations, liabilities, costs, expenses, attorneys’ fees, and executions,
whatsoever, whether known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, actual or
potential, individual or joint, direct or indirect, fixed or contingent, in law
or equity, of every kind and nature whatsoever, which you, Gulfstream or Beacon
ever had, now has, or hereafter can, shall, or may have, or claim to have,
against HPI or its officers and directors with respect to the Obligations.
