US Energy Initiatives Redeems Convertible Notes; Three of Four Equity Funds Repaid in Cash

TAMPA, Fla.--March 31, 2006--US Energy Initiatives ("USEIC" or the "Company") (OTCBB:HYFS), (formerly Hybrid Fuel Systems, Inc.), manufacturer of a patent dual-fuel diesel to natural gas conversion technology, today announced that on March 28, 2006, the Company redeemed outstanding convertible notes with various investors which were issued in connection with financings concluding during April 2005.

"We are very pleased to redeem this financing through the payment of cash rather than converting this debt into additional shares of our common stock," said USEIC CEO Mark Clancy. "We enjoyed a strong relationship with our financing partners during a critical phase in our development. The opportunity to take out this convertible debt is good for our financing partners who are repaid in full and for our shareholders as we can avoid the dilution that would have occurred," concluded Mr. Clancy.
