Actually it should be 0. HL is already providing a -2 when you equip your one-handed weapon in the primary hand and "
Touch Attack" or "
Ranged Touch Attack" weapon as the off-hand.
Here is a image with a level 1 magus with 10 Str:

As can be seen the -2 to Hit is already taken into account correctly by HL.
In addition there is a "Touch Attack, Damage" adjustment that lets you set the damage value instead of "As Spell". Which I just tried and its not working correctly. So I will fix that also.

When you entered -2 you are saying I am taking an additional penalty to hit (on top of the normal TWF rules) to get a Plus bonus to concentration. So this is correct.

I will try and update the wording/note to make this more 'clear' on how the adjustment is meant to work. That is my bad for being in a hurry. Sorry!
