This excerpt taken from the PRVT DEF 14A filed Nov 3, 2009. THE ACQUISITION OF THE GAMELINK COMPANIES Following is a description of the principal terms of the Companys acquisition of the GameLink companies and issuance of its common stock. Additional details regarding the acquisition are contained in the acquisition agreement that is an exhibit to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 23, 2009. On January 20, 2009, Private completed the acquisition of 100% of the business of Game Link LLC and its affiliate, eLine, LLC (collectively, GameLink companies) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (acquisition agreement) dated as of January 20, 2009, by and among Private, the Game Link companies and the shareholders of the GameLink companies. The GameLink companies are engaged in the business of digital distribution of adult content over the Internet and online eCommerce development. The acquisition was made in order to further Privates goal of becoming a leading global digital distributor of adult content over the Internet. The acquisition was accomplished by the merger of two wholly-owned subsidiaries of Private into the two parent companies of the GameLink businesses, with the shareholders of those entities receiving 8,534,309 shares of Private common stock in exchange for 100% of their interests in the GameLink companies. In addition, the former shareholders of the GameLink companies (the GameLink Shareholders) are entitled to receive up to an additional 4,595,397 shares of Private common stock (Earnout Shares) if the combined EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of the online digital media operations of Private and the GameLink companies meet specified targets in 2009, 2010 and 2011. The recipients of these shares have been granted piggyback registration rights by Private. However, most of the shares are subject to a lockup agreement which prohibits their sale or transfer until January 21, 2010. The manner in which the Earnout Shares are earned in relation to the combined EBITDA targets is as follows. For each of the years ended December 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 in which the actual EBITDA of the online digital media operations equals or exceeds the target EBITDA, the GameLink Shareholders are entitled to receive 1,531,799 shares of Private common stock. If there is a shortfall in the actual EBITDA compared to the target EBITDA in any year, instead of receiving 1,531,799 target shares for that year, the GameLink Shareholders are entitled to receive a pro rata portion of the target shares for that year, based upon the ratio between the actual EBITDA and the target EBITDA for that year. In such event, if the actual EBITDA required in the following year(s) exceeds the target EBITDA, in addition to the 1,531,799 target shares earned for the following year(s), the GameLink Shareholders are entitled to recover all or a portion of unearned target shares from the prior year(s) based upon the amount by which actual EBITDA exceeds the target EBITDA in the subsequent year. No shares may be earned after 2011. As part of the acquisition, the owners of the Game Link companies agreed to continue to be employed by Private for a period of three years following the acquisition, with either party having the right to terminate their employment agreement for specified reasons. The employment agreement with one of the owners, Ilan Bunimovitz, provided for him to be appointed to Privates Board of Directors by March 2009 and to serve as a director until 2012. Under a separate agreement entered into in connection with the acquisition of Game Link, Berth Milton, our Chairman, agreed to vote Private shares beneficially owned by him in favor of Mr. Bunimovitzs election to the Board of Directors in 2009, 2010 and 2011, so long as Mr. Bunimovitz continues to be employed by the Company.
