HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 6,
2000--HyperDynamics Corp. (OTCBB:HYPD - news), the premier Integrated Technology
Service Provider (ITSP(TM)), ``enabling tomorrow ... today,'' announced
today that all agreements have been executed and AT&T (NYSE:T - news)
is working to establish HyperDynamics' new Integrated Technology Center
(ITC) at Westwood Technology Center (WTC) as an AT&T Dedicated Entrance
Facility (DEF).
Characteristics of a DEF include
On-net (Type 1) redundant fiber provisioning with bandwidth scalability
up to an OC-48. This DEF effectively creates a private Sonet-based network

data network account executive; and Tom Zingalis, technical coordinator
for AT&T, toured the WTC with Kent Watts, president and chief executive
officer for HyperDynamics, and Joseph Trahan, chief technology officer
for WTC.
All the details on the fiber routing
and configuration issues were established, and AT&T is expected to
complete the first leg of the ``Dual Entrance Diverse Route'' installation
in the next couple of weeks.
Watts stated: ``The AT&T DEF
gives HyperDynamics the core infrastructure to provide top-quality Hypersource(TM)
services. With this in place, the overall value and variety of our services
are unsurpassed. This is indeed a key component to bringing unmatched value
to our clients.''
