BOISE, ID--(MARKET WIRE)--Apr 2, 2008 -- Hot Web, Inc. (Other OTC:HWBI.PK - News) announced today that, in conjunction with the Company's recently completed and announced capital restructuring, the Board of Directors reached agreement with five of its larger shareholders in mid-January 2008 to reacquire 12,500,000 shares of the company's freely tradable common stock.

George Stevens, Chairman of Hot Web, Inc., commented, "I thought it was important to highlight concurrent share reduction initiatives that were instituted alongside our milestone capital restructuring announced last week. By returning over 12 million shares of stock to our Treasury, Hot Web shareholders realized increased intrinsic value for those shares held in the public marketplace. This major change in our capital structure, in conjunction with several significant pending announcements, represents genuine progress in our efforts to finally begin rewarding our loyal and patient investor base."
