This excerpt taken from the PRVT 10-K filed Apr 2, 2007. Description of long-term debt: Banks In May 2003 Euro 1.65 million of a related party note payable was re-financed by an institutional lender at the same interest rate as on the note payable, EURIBOR + 1%. The loan is repayable in equal monthly installments over a four year period starting June 29, 2004. The loan is guaranteed by the Companys principal shareholder and affiliates of the Companys principal shareholder. The balance outstanding on the loan as of December 31, 2005 was EUR 1.0 million. Non-institutional debt In December 2001 the groups holding company, Private Media Group, Inc., borrowed $ 4.0 million from Commerzbank AG pursuant to a Note originally due on December 20, 2002. The Note bore interest at an annual rate of 7%, payable quarterly, with the entire principal amount and accrued interest originally due on December 20, 2002. The Note is guaranteed by Slingsby Enterprises Limited, an affiliate of Berth Milton, Privates Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and principal shareholder, and the guaranty is secured by 4,950,000 shares of Private Media Group, Inc. Common Stock. In December 2002 Commerzbank AG agreed to extend the maturity date of the Note to March 20, 2003. In April 2003 the Note was acquired by Consipio Holding b.v. from Commerzbank AG, and Consipio and Private reached an agreement-in-principle with Consipio to extend the maturity of the Note for five years, with interest on the Note being increased to 9.9% per annum. However, Consipio and Private have been unable to reach final agreement on other terms and conditions relating to the restructured Note. Accordingly, in December 2003 Consipio notified Private and Slingsby Enterprises that Private was in default under the Note, and demanded immediate payment of the outstanding principal under the Note. The Company continues to make all regularly scheduled interest payments on the Note and believes that it has valid defenses to the demand for immediate repayment of the Note, should Consipio seek to enforce immediate repayment. In any event, the Company
- 45 -
does not believe that the acceleration of the Note by Consipio, if not rescinded, will have a material adverse effect on the Company, as the Note is fully collateralized by 4,950,000 shares of Private Media Group, Inc. Common Stock pursuant to the guaranty agreement from Slingsby Enterprises Limited. As of December 31, 2006 the outstanding principal under the Note was EUR 2.1 million. This excerpt taken from the PRVT 10-K filed Mar 31, 2006. Description of long-term debt: Banks In March 2003, the Company was granted a loan from an institutional lender in the principal amount of EUR 4.2 million of which EUR 1.75 million and EUR 2.45 million was received in 2003 and 2004 respectively. The loan bears interest at the rate of EURIBOR + 1.5%, repayable over 12 years, including an initial period of 18 months during which only interest is payable. The loan was obtained for the purposes of financing the construction of an office building and is secured by a mortgage on the building. In 2004 and 2005 the Company sold the property and repaid EUR 1.9 million and EUR 2.2 million, respectively. The balance outstanding on the loan as of December 31, 2005 was EUR 0.1 million. In May 2003 Euro 1.65 million of a related party note payable was re-financed by an institutional lender at the same interest rate as on the note payable, EURIBOR + 1%. The loan is repayable in equal monthly installments over a four year period starting June 29, 2004. The loan is guaranteed by the Companys principal shareholder and affiliates of the Companys principal shareholder. The balance outstanding on the loan as of December 31, 2005 was EUR 1.0 million. The Companys Spanish subsidiary has existing bank line of credit agreements under which this subsidiary may borrow up to EUR 1.4 million. Borrowings under the lines of credit during 2005 were charged at interest rates of EURIBOR+1.25-1.50%. At December 31, 2004 and 2005 the borrowings outstanding under these agreements amounted to EUR 1.2 million and EUR 1.4 million, respectively. At December 31, 2005 the Companys Swedish subsidiary had an outstanding bank loan totaling EUR 15 thousand. Interest on the loan at December 31, 2005 was 8% which was equal to the Swedish banks official interest rate at that time. The
- 47 -
loan requires principal repayments of EUR 5 thousand quarterly plus accrued interest and the loan matures on September 30, 2006. The loan has been guaranteed by the Companys principal shareholder. Non-institutional debt In December 2001 the groups holding company, Private Media Group, Inc., borrowed $ 4.0 million from Commerzbank AG pursuant to a Note originally due on December 20, 2002. The Note bore interest at an annual rate of 7%, payable quarterly, with the entire principal amount and accrued interest originally due on December 20, 2002. The Note is guaranteed by Slingsby Enterprises Limited, an affiliate of Berth Milton, Privates Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and principal shareholder, and the guaranty is secured by 4,950,000 shares of Private Media Group, Inc. Common Stock. In December 2002 Commerzbank AG agreed to extend the maturity date of the Note to March 20, 2003. In April 2003 the Note was acquired by Consipio Holding b.v. from Commerzbank AG, and Consipio and Private reached an agreement-in-principle with Consipio to extend the maturity of the Note for five years, with interest on the Note being increased to 9.9% per annum, and to refinance a $ 3.0 million loan from Beate Uhse AG, discussed below (the $ 3.0 Million Beate Uhse Loan), which had a maturity date of December 13, 2003. However, Consipio and Private have been unable to reach final agreement on other terms and conditions relating to the restructured Note or refinancing of the $ 3 Million Beate Uhse Loan. Accordingly, in December 2003 Consipio notified Private and Slingsby Enterprises that Private was in default under the Note, and demanded immediate payment of the outstanding principal under the Note. The Company continues to make all regularly scheduled interest payments on the Note and believes that it has valid defenses to the demand for immediate repayment of the Note, should Consipio seek to enforce immediate repayment. In any event, the Company does not believe that the acceleration of the Note by Consipio, if not rescinded, will have a material adverse effect on the Company, as the Note is fully collateralized by 4,950,000 shares of Private Media Group, Inc. Common Stock pursuant to the guaranty agreement from Slingsby Enterprises Limited. As of December 31, 2005 the outstanding principal under the Note was EUR 2.5 million. On December 13, 2002, the groups holding company, Private Media Group, Inc., borrowed $ 3.0 million from Beate Uhse AG under a Loan Agreement (the $ 3 Million Beate Uhse Loan). Interest accrues at the rate of 5%, payable quarterly, with the entire principal plus accrued interest due at maturity, December 13, 2003. In December 2003, Beate Uhse AG notified Private Media Group, Inc. that the full loan amount was due and payable and offered to extend the loan maturity, subject to receipt of adequate collateral. Subsequently, Beate Uhse AG proposed an agreement whereby, so long as Private and Beate Uhse continued to maintain a business relationship, no action would be taken to enforce repayment of the $ 3 Million Beate Uhse Loan, and that loan payments would be made from credits based upon orders by specified Beate Uhse companies to specified Private Media Group companies, as was done with the $ 2 million Beate Uhse loan. Beate Uhse offered that this arrangement would be acceptable until December 31, 2005 and that any outstanding balance on the loan would have to be paid by then. In September, a formal agreement reflecting the aforementioned was reached with Beate Uhse AG regarding the restructuring of the $ 3 Million Beate Uhse Loan. As of December 31, 2004 the outstanding balance under the Loan Agreement was EUR 0.7 million and as of September 30, 2005, the loan was repaid in its entirety. At December 31, 2005, the Companys Spanish subsidiary had a total debt of EUR 11 thousand under certain long term leasing agreements under which the subsidiary has acquired certain equipment, machinery and fixtures. The leasing arrangements carry an average EURIBOR+1.5% rate of interest and cover 36-60 month periods. Payments under these lease agreements are made monthly. Convertible notes Effective September 2003, pursuant to securities purchase agreements entered into separately with four accredited institutional investors, we agreed to issue and sell to each of these investors convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2.25 million, Series A Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 337,500 shares of our common stock, and Series B Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 225,000 shares of our common stock. The securities purchase agreements each provided for the sale of one-half of the convertible notes ($1.125 million aggregate principal amount) and the issuance of all of the Series A and B Warrants as of the first closing, September 19, 2003, and obligated each of the investors to purchase, and for us to sell and issue to these investors, the remaining convertible notes ($1.125 million aggregate principal amount) immediately following the registration with the SEC of the common stock issuable under the convertible notes and the warrants (the second closing), which financing was completed effective October 27, 2003. Effective as of the first closing we received aggregate gross cash proceeds of $1,125,000, and we received an additional $1,125,000 of aggregate proceeds at the second closing, in each case before deduction of selling expenses. Effective January 2004, one investor converted $0.3 million (EUR 0.2 million) of principal into common
- 48 -
stock and in December 2005 another investor converted $0.6 million (EUR 0.5 million) of principal into common stock. As of December 31, 2005, the amount recorded under current portion of long term borrowings, after charging debt discount of EUR 0.6 million to additional paid in capital in 2003, was EUR 1.0 million. Interest on the notes is payable quarterly, and interest accrues at the rate of 7% per annum from their respective issue dates of September 19, 2003 and October 27, 2003. The outstanding principal balance is due and payable on August 31, 2006, subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of specified events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the notes, the note holders may elect to convert their notes, at any time prior to maturity, into shares of our common stock at a fixed conversion price of $2.00 per share. In addition to anti-dilution provisions providing for proportionate adjustments in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, reverse stock splits and similar events, this conversion price is subject to downward adjustment upon the issuance by us of common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a price per share of less than $2.00 per share. We may elect, with limited exceptions, to pay the interest due under the notes through the issuance of shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the arithmetic average of the five lowest daily volume-weighted average prices of our common stock during the 15 consecutive trading days immediately preceding payment. For additional information on the convertible notes, see Note 12 to the Financial Statements. This excerpt taken from the PRVT 10-K filed Mar 31, 2005. Description of long-term debt:

Non-institutional debt
In December 2001 the groups holding company, Private Media Group, Inc., borrowed $ 4.0 million from Commerzbank AG pursuant to a Note originally due on December 20, 2002. The Note bore interest at an annual rate of 7%, payable quarterly, with the entire principal amount and accrued interest originally due on December 20, 2002. The Note is guaranteed by Slingsby Enterprises Limited, an affiliate of Berth Milton, Privates Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and principal shareholder, and the guaranty is secured by 4,950,000 shares of Private Media Group, Inc. Common Stock. In December 2002 Commerzbank AG agreed to extend the maturity date of the Note to March 20, 2003. In April 2003 the Note was acquired by Consipio Holding b.v. from Commerzbank AG, and Consipio and Private reached an agreement-in-principle with Consipio to extend the maturity of the Note for five years, with interest on the Note being increased to 9.9% per annum, and to refinance a $ 3.0 million loan from Beate Uhse AG, discussed below (the $ 3.0 Million Beate Uhse Loan), which had a maturity date of December 13, 2003. However, Consipio and Private have been unable to reach final agreement on other terms and conditions relating to the restructured Note or refinancing of the $ 3 Million Beate Uhse Loan. Accordingly, in December 2003 Consipio notified Private and Slingsby Enterprises that Private was in default under the Note, and demanded immediate payment of the outstanding principal under the Note. The Company continues to make all regularly scheduled interest payments on the Note and believes that it has valid defenses to the demand for immediate repayment of the Note, should Consipio seek to enforce immediate repayment. In any event, the Company does not believe that the acceleration of the Note by Consipio, if not rescinded, will have a material adverse effect on the Company, as the Note is fully collateralized by 4,950,000 shares of Private Media Group, Inc. Common Stock pursuant to the guaranty agreement from Slingsby Enterprises Limited. As of December 31, 2004 the outstanding principal under the Note was EUR 2.2 million and is classified as a current liability.

In December 2003, Beate Uhse AG notified Private Media Group, Inc. that the full loan amount was due and payable and offered to extend the loan maturity, subject to receipt of adequate collateral. Subsequently, Beate Uhse AG proposed an agreement whereby, so long as Private and Beate Uhse continued to maintain a business relationship, no action would be taken to enforce repayment of the $ 3 Million Beate Uhse Loan, and that loan payments would be made from credits based upon orders by specified Beate Uhse companies to specified Private Media Group companies, as was done with the $ 2 million Beate Uhse loan. Beate Uhse offered that this arrangement would be

acceptable until December 31, 2005 and that any outstanding balance on the loan would have to be paid by then. In September 2004, a formal agreement reflecting the aforementioned was reached with Beate Uhse AG regarding the restructuring of the $ 3 Million Beate Uhse Loan. As of December 31, 2004, the balance outstanding on the loan was EUR 0.7 million.
