It had nothing to do with Amiga Inc. paying or not paying anything. Before Hyperion started their OS4 project in late 2001, Amiga Inc.'s own OS4 project was running since early 2001, with Fleecy Moss acting as the project lead, H&P supposed to do the core OS, P96 Team contributing the 2D part and Hyperion the 3D part (and several other parties like Olaf "olsen" Barthel). Needless to say that this project went nowhere especially with H&P starting to promote Amithlon and AmigaXL and the subsequent discord with Amiga Inc.
It was during this timeframe that negotiations between the MorphOS developers and Amiga Inc. took place with the aim to have MorphOS published as AmigaOS4. Both negotiations (1st early 2001 and 2nd mid 2001) failed due to Amiga Inc. wanting too much control over OS development decisions for the MorphOS developers' liking.
