	As of the date of this filing, each Reporting Person may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the number of shares of Common Stock of Hyde Park Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) set forth on Row 9 of the corresponding Cover Page of this Schedule 13G for such Reporting Person, which shares are a constituent part of the Company’s Units (“Units”) of which each Reporting Person may be deemed to hold the number set forth on Row 9 of the corresponding Cover Page of this Schedule 13G for such Reporting Person. Each Unit consists of (i) one share of Common Stock and (ii) one Warrant (“Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $5.00. Each Warrant will become exercisable on the later of the Company’s completion of a business combination and March 5, 2008, and will expire on March 4, 2011, or earlier upon redemption. As of the date of this filing, the Company has not announced the completion of a business combination. Of the aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock reported in each of Rows 6, 8 and 9 on pages 2-3 of this Schedule 13G, 55,000 shares (the “Ostra Shares”) of each such number of shares are owned by Ostra Capital Partners, L.P. (“Ostra”). The general partner of Ostra is Ostra GP, LLC, and the manager of Ostra GP, LLC is an individual named Richard Murawczyk. Mr. Murawczyk is employed by one or more entities controlled by David M. Knott and Mr. Murawczyk and David M. Knott have entered into an agreement with respect to security investments by Ostra. The Ostra Shares have been included in the number of shares reported as beneficially owned by David M. Knott in this Schedule 13G to avoid any potential question regarding compliance with appropriate public disclosure requirements in the event that Ostra or any of its affiliates or controlling persons and David M. Knott might be deemed to be members of a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). David M. Knott does not have any power to vote or direct the vote or dispose or direct the disposition of the Ostra Shares. The inclusion of the Ostra Shares in the number of shares reported as beneficially owned by David M. Knott in this Schedule 13G or any amendment hereto does not constitute an admission that David M. Knott and Ostra or any of their respective affiliates or controlling persons are members of a “group” for purposes of the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder or for any other purpose whatsoever. David M. Knott expressively disclaims beneficial ownership of any Common Stock beneficially owned by Ostra or its affiliates or controlling persons.
