We present a simple and phenomenologically acceptable extension of the 4-1 model of dynamical supersymmetry breaking, in which messengers and MSSM superfields are directly coupled to the hidden sector without participating in the supersymmetry breaking mechanism; although parametrically suppressed by a loop factor, gaugino masses turn out to be comparable to sfermion masses because of the presence of enhancing factors ultimately due to the different origin of the gaugino and the sfermion mass terms. We also describe what can be considered the simplest realization of the Higgs sector and how electroweak symmetry breaking can take place in this model. Finally, in the Appendix, we have listed a set of closed-form expressions for the computation of A-terms and soft squared masses of light scalars at the messenger scale in the presence of the most general form of "matter-messenger" couplings, extending in this way some results already known from the literature.
