               Hudson's Grill Announces The Signing
            of a Non-Binding Letter of Intent to Merge
                 and David L. Osborn's Resignation

Hudson's Signs Non-Binding Letter of Intent to Merge
Friday, December 3, 1999

Dallas, TX -- Hudson's Grill of America, Inc., based in Dallas,
Texas, announced today that it had signed a non-binding letter of
intent to merge into Overland Beverage Distributing, Inc. (a non-
public company recently formed to distribute beverages).
Representatives from Overland will contact existing and potential
creditors of the Company in an effort to exchange stock and
warrants in the merged company for the cancellation of existing
and contingent debts.  If Overland's representatives are able to
obtain agreements from the Company's current and contingent
creditors to accept equity in the newly merged company, then
Overland plans to proceed with the merger.  If the merger proceeds
according to the letter of intent, the Company will do a 1 for 4
reverse stock split and then issue 5,000,000 shares to Overland to
effect the merger.  The newly merged company would not include
Hudson's Grill International, Inc., which is currently a
subsidiary of the Company.  Hudson's Grill International will be
spun off to the current shareholders of the Company as a separate,
publicly held entity.

     Additionally, Hudson's announced that effective December 31,
1999, David L. Osborn, the Company's President and also one of its
directors, had resigned as President and director of the Company.
Mr. Osborn will stay on as an interim President of the Company's
subsidiary, Hudson's Grill International, until its stock
registration has become effective and the subsidiary is spun off
to the Company's shareholders.  The Company's directors will
manage the Company until a replacement can be found.

     The Company also announced that it had settled a lawsuit with
the landlord of a Whittier, California, site that the Company
formerly had leased.  The suit also involved another guarantor of
the lease, who will pay the settlement of $400,000.  The Company
has no specific obligation to the guarantor but likely will issue
stock to the guarantor for paying the settlement.  Additionally,
the Company recently has put up its Dallas, Texas, restaurant
subsidiary for sale; if not sold in the next several months, it
will be closed down.

    Hudson's Grill of America is publicly traded over the counter
under the NASDAQ symbol HDSG.
