DENVER, Oct. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- HyperSpace Communications, Inc. (AMEX:HCO), a provider of enterprise IT hardware solutions through its subsidiary MPC Computers, LLC, today announced that it has entered into definitive agreements with several institutional and private investors regarding a new private placement of its convertible debentures with gross proceeds of approximately $5.18 million. The terms of the private placement are substantially similar to the private placement that HyperSpace closed on September 8, 2006. HyperSpace is required to seek shareholder approval of the transaction. If shareholder approval is obtained, the debentures will become convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.75 per share. HyperSpace also issued an aggregate of approximately 2,590,000 warrants to purchase common stock for $1.10 per share to the purchasers of the convertible debentures. HyperSpace intends to use the net proceeds of this offering for general corporate purposes, including working capital and the reduction of outstanding indebtedness. It is anticipated that the transaction will close over the next few days. The investment bank Maxim Group LLC acted as HyperSpace's sole placement agent for both private placement offerings. More information concerning this financing will be included in a Form 8-K filing, which HyperSpace plans to file later this week. About HyperSpace Communications: HyperSpace Communications, Inc.
