Explanation of Responses:
1. Warrants originally granted on 07/25/01 were repriced from $.40 to $.23 per common share. The warrants were granted as officer compensation.
2. The note payable was issued 12/27/2002 for accrued salary and bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum. The exercise price of the convertible note payable varies. Through 12/01/07 Mr. Briers may convert the note at a price equalling 60% of the lowest closing market price during the six months preceding the exercise. Between 12/01/07 and 12/31/07 Hyperdynamics may convert the note at 50% of the lowest closing market price during the thirty days preceding the conversion. Hyperdynamics may prepay the note in cash at any time. On 12/27/2002, the note principal was $102,911 and the conversion price was $.108, resulting in 952,882 shares beneficially owned. The amount reported is as of 10/03/03 and consists of $102,911 prinicipal and $9,777 interest for a total of $112,688. The conversion price resulting from the aforementioned formula is $.168; if the note had been converted on October 3, 2003, 670,761 shares would have been issued.
