EXPLANATORY NOTE

As explained in greater detail in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the former principal executive officers of Private Media Group, Inc. were relieved of their duties in December 2011, and most of the former members of the Board of Directors were removed by the shareholders at the annual meeting of the shareholders held in January 2012. Upon assuming control, the new officers and directors discovered that many of Private Media Group, Inc.’s important financial and corporate records, including those necessary to complete the 2011 audited financial statements, were in disarray and/or missing. As a result of the change in management and the condition of the financial and corporate records, Private Media Group, Inc. and its auditors were unable to complete the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 until May 2013 which lead to a delay in the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 until June 2013. As required by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, this Annual Report contains the financial statements and other required information for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012. However, this Annual Report also describes both (i) events that have occurred since December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and (ii) the current state of the business and operations of Private Media Group, Inc.

BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

Private Media Group, Inc. is a leading international provider of branded adult media across a wide range of digital platforms and physical formats. We conduct our operations through various non-U.S. subsidiaries located in a number of countries, including Cyprus, Sweden, Spain and Gibraltar.

We acquire worldwide rights to adult media produced for us by independent producers and then process this content into products suitable for popular physical media formats such as print publications, DVDs, digital media platforms (such as internet websites, mobile telephony and transactional television), and broadcasting (which includes cable, satellite and IPTV (Internet Protocol Television)). Our branded adult media is available at physical retail locations and through electronic retailers as well as on mobile devices, transaction television platforms and over the Internet. In addition, we provide adult entertainment films to thousands of major hotels around the world. To a lesser extent, in addition to branded adult media products, we also market and distribute branded leisure and novelty products oriented to the adult entertainment lifestyle and generate additional sales through the licensing of our Private trademark to third parties.

Operations Under Prior Management. Private Media was founded in 1965 by Berth H. Milton Sr. and achieved initial success through our flagship publication, Private, the world’s first full color, hard-core sex publication. In 1998 Private Media acquired a U.S. public company and, thereby, became a ~~public~~ public company. Since 1998, Berth H. Milton Jr., Berth H. Milton Sr.’s son (all further references to “Milton” refer to Berth H. Milton Jr.) was beneficially the principal shareholder of Private Media and, during most of those years, ~~served~~ served as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. Since 1998 the Company engaged in a number of transactions with Mr. Milton, including the purchase of its European headquarters from one of his affiliated companies in 2002. In addition, during this period the Company made numerous “short-term loans” to Mr. Milton’s off-shore companies. These loans were unsecured, had no maturity date and no repayment terms. The outstanding balance of these loans grew from EUR 1 million in 2001 to over EUR 4.2 million in 2004, to EUR 5.9 million at December 31, 2005, EUR 6.4 million at December 31, 2006, EUR 6.7 million at December 31, 2007, ~~and~~ EUR 7.26 million at December 31, 2011 and EUR 7.7 million at December 31, 2012 (the “Slingsby Loans”). Mr. Milton has not repaid the Slingsby Loans, and, because of the uncertainty as to Private Media’s ability to collect these loans, in 2010 the Company fully reserved (wrote off) the entire amount of the Slingsby Loans on its financial statements.

In 2001, Private Media borrowed $4 million from Commerzbank AG (the “Commerzbank Note”). The Company’s obligations were secured by a guaranty and by a pledge of 5,600,000 shares of Private Media’s stock held by Slingsby Enterprises Limited (“Slingsby”), an affiliate of Mr. Milton, who, at the time, was the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and principal shareholder. The Commerzbank Note was acquired by Consipio Holding BV (“Consipio”). The Commerzbank Note matured in March 2003. Following the acquisition of the Commerzbank Note by Consipio, Private Media and Consipio engaged in discussions to revise the terms of the promissory note and to extend its maturity date to 2008. In 2008 Consipio declared the promissory note to be in default and demanded that it be repaid. On May 1, 2009, Consipio filed a lawsuit against Private Media, Slingsby, and Mr. Milton in U.S. federal court to enforce the Commerzbank Note. That lawsuit was dismissed on technical grounds and re-filed in May 2010 in New York State Court. The complaint alleged the failure to pay the Commerzbank Note. On August 30, 2011 the New York Court issued an Order of Attachment pursuant to which New York City and state officials were ordered to attach, by levy, Private Media’s New York assets for the sum of $7.35 million. As discussed below, Private Media’s new management since then settled that lawsuit.

~~Attachment~~content ~~pursuant~~over tothe ~~which~~Internet ~~New~~and ~~York~~in ~~City~~eCommerce ~~and~~development, ~~state~~primarily ~~officials~~in ~~were~~the ~~ordered~~United toStates. ~~attach~~Shortly after this acquisition, byIlan ~~levy~~Bunimovitz (“Mr. Bunimovitz”), a principal of Game Link, was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of Private Media’s. ~~New~~In ~~York~~October ~~assets~~2009, ~~for~~Private Media purchased the ~~sum~~businesses of $7Entruphema Inc.35 ~~million~~and Sureflix Digital Distribution Inc. (collectively, “Sureflix”). Sureflix is based in Toronto, Canada, and is engaged in the digital distribution of branded gay adult media over the Internet. As ~~discussed~~part ~~below~~of the Sureflix acquisition, Eric Johnson (“Mr. Johnson”), an affiliate of Sureflix, was appointed to Private Media’s Board of Directors. These two acquisitions significantly changed Private Media’s ~~new~~historical scope of operations, both geographically and by significantly increasing its distribution of gay adult media. While the two acquisitions substantially increased the size of the operations of Private Media, prior management ~~since~~had ~~then~~internal ~~settled~~management ~~that~~conflicts ~~lawsuit~~with the managers of the two acquired companies.

In 2009, Private Media decided to expand its operations by making two acquisitions. In January 2009 Private Media expanded its internet operations through the acquisition of Game Link LLC and its affiliates (collectively, “Game Link”). Game Link is based in San Francisco, California, U.S.A. and is engaged in digital distribution of adult content over the Internet and in eCommerce development, primarily in the United States. Shortly after this acquisition, Ilan Bunimovitz (“Mr. Bunimovitz”), a principal of Game Link, was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer of Private Media. In October 2009, Private Media purchased the businesses of Entruphema Inc. and Sureflix Digital Distribution Inc. (collectively, “Sureflix”). Sureflix is based in Toronto, Canada, and is engaged in the digital distribution of branded gay adult media over the Internet. As part of the Sureflix acquisition, Eric Johnson (“Mr. Johnson”), an affiliate of Sureflix, was appointed to Private Media’s Board of Directors. These two acquisitions significantly changed Private Media’s historical scope of operations, both geographically and by significantly increasing its distribution of gay adult media. While the two acquisitions substantially increased the size of the operations of Private Media, prior management had internal management conflicts with the managers of the two acquired companies.

In July 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz was terminated as Chief Executive Officer of Private Media, and Mr. Milton was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer. On July 23, 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz filed a JAMS arbitration action against Private Media contesting his termination as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Bunimovitz alleged, among other things, that his termination was taken in retaliation for Mr. Bunimovitz demanding an independent investigation of Mr. Milton’s alleged self-dealing transactions, including Mr. Milton’s failure to repay a part of the outstanding Slingsby Loans. That arbitration also alleged fraud in the acquisition of the Game Link companies, and allegations regarding the shares of Private Media stock due under various earn-out provisions to Mr. Bunimovitz.

On August 11, 2010, Consipio, a creditor of the Company by virtue of its ownership of the Commerzbank Note, together with Mr. Bunimovitz, and Tisbury Services Inc., the holder of over 13% of Private Media’s outstanding common stock, filed a lawsuit against Private Media in Nevada County Court, Clark County, Nevada, alleging mismanagement of the Company’s business by Private Media’s three independent directors and Mr. Milton (Consipio Holding BV et. al. v. Private Media Group, Inc., filed in Nevada State Court and herein referred to as the “Nevada Action”) The plaintiffs also sought to have a receiver appointed to run the business and affairs of Private Media.

Consipio, Tisbury Services Inc. and certain other shareholders believed that a majority of Private Media’s independent members of the Board of Directors failed to direct the affairs of Private Media over many years in a manner that is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders due to inappropriate influence and control exercised by Private Media’s Chairman and principal shareholder, Mr. Milton. Accordingly, in October 2010 Consipio nominated its own slate of directors to be elected at Private Media’s 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders that was to be held on November 18, 2010. In October 2010, the Nevada state court in the Nevada Action ordered Private Media to recognize the right of Consipio to vote the 5,600,000 shares that were pledged by Slingsby Enterprises as collateral for the Commerzbank Note. The Annual Meeting was held on November 18, 2010. Although the Nevada state court in the Nevada Action ordered that Consipio could vote the 5,600,000 pledged shares, the voting of those shares by Mr. Milton and/or Consipio was difficult to trace, and the inspector of elections in December 2010 determined that Mr. Milton and the other incumbent directors were re-elected. In January 2011, the Nevada state court re-examined the votes cast at the 2010 Annual Meeting to see if the 5,600,000 collateral shares pledged by Slingsby to Consipio were actually voted in favor of Consipio’s director nominees, and then ordered that a hearing be held in June 2011 to determine whether to confirm or modify the vote report of the inspector of elections. At the June 2011 hearing, the Nevada court determined that the election of the incumbent directors at the November 18, 2010 Annual Meeting was invalid. The Nevada court also ordered the prior Board of Directors to promptly call for a new annual meeting to elect directors. The incumbent directors did not call a new meeting of the shareholders as ordered by the court, and on August 25, 2011 the Nevada State Court appointed Mr. Johnson as the receiver for the Company for the purposes of (i) preserving Private Media’s assets and business, and (ii) setting the date for and conducting the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Prior management’s actions also contributed to the de-listing of Private Media’s common stock from the Nasdaq Stock Market. In September 2011, the Company was notified by Nasdaq that Private Media’s common stock would be de-listed from the Nasdaq Stock Market because of the appointment of a receiver, the failure of our prior Board of Directors to collect the EUR 7 million owed by Mr. Milton under the Slingsby Loans, the failure of our prior Board to demand repayment from Mr. Milton of excess salary and instead allowing Mr. Milton to keep such excess salary as a “retention bonus,” and the entry of the $7.35 million Order of Attachment against the Company by the New York State Court. Private Media’s common stock was formally delisted on November 15, 2011. As a result, our common stock is currently traded on the OTCQB tier of the OTC Markets.

2011 the Nevada State Court appointed Mr. Johnson as the receiver for the Company for the purposes of (i) preserving Private Media’s assets and business, and (ii) setting the date for and conducting the 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

On September 19, 2011, Mr. Johnson, as receiver of the Company, demanded that Mr. Milton and Slingsby repay the Slingsby Loans. As of the date of this Annual Report, Mr. Milton and Slingsby have not repaid any portion of the Slingsby Loans.

On December 15, 2011, Mr. Johnson, the court-appointed receiver, indefinitely suspended Mr. Milton from all duties and powers as our President and CEO. Mr. Milton’s employment with Private Media was formally terminated on March 28, 2012. Also on December 15, 2011, Johan Gillborg was terminated as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary.

The 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders that the Nevada State Court had ordered in June 2011 was finally held on January 11, 2012. At that election, the shareholders removed Mr. Milton and all of the prior directors (other than Mr. Johnson and Mr. Bunimovitz) and elected Consipio’s slate of directors. Thereafter, the new Board of Directors appointed Charles Prast (“Mr. Prast”) as Private Media’s new President, Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, and the Nevada Court entered an order terminating the receivership of Mr. Johnson. Mr. Johnson remains a director of the Company.

On May 22, 2012, the Nevada State Court (i) dismissed the Nevada Action, and (ii) ordered Private Media to reimburse plaintiffs Consipio Holding BV and Tisbury Services Inc. for their attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in that lawsuit in an amount to be agreed between the plaintiffs and Private Media, and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Operations Under New Management. The financial cost of prior management’s actions has severely weakened Private Media’s financial condition and detrimentally affected its on-going operations. Prior management’s failure to attempt to collect the Slingsby Loans (over EUR 7 million, much of which was outstanding for a decade), and its failure to prevent Mr. Milton from receiving excessive salary and other payments, contributed to the Company’s weak financial condition. This situation was, however, significantly exacerbated by the millions of dollars of legal and other fees and costs that were incurred related to the various lawsuits filed against Private Media by its shareholders and creditors, and by the fees related to the disputed annual meetings of the Company’s shareholders. As a result of the lawsuits, Private Media was ordered to repay the litigation fees and costs incurred by the plaintiffs. Because of these additional costs and fees, including default interest on the Commerzbank Note, Private Media’s obligation to Consipio under the Commerzbank Note increased to EUR 5,545,568 (approximately $7.3 million based on the euro-dollar exchange rate in effect on December 28, 2012, the date of settlement). In addition, Private Media was forced to pay the fees and costs of Tisbury Services Inc. and to enter into a settlement with Mr. Bunimovitz.

In addition to the financial damage inflicted on the Company, Private Media’s operations during the past few years have also been severely affected by the disruption caused by management disputes, changes in its market and operating environment due to an influx of free, advertisement supported content delivered by other adult entertainment companies (referred to as advertainment), the various lawsuits filed by and against the Company, the Nasdaq de-listing, the operational and other difficulties in integrating Private Media’s Game Link and Sureflix businesses, and the deteriorating relations between Private Media and its distributors and customers. Furthermore, upon assuming control following the January 2012 annual meeting of shareholders, our new officers and directors discovered that many of Private Media’s important financial and corporate records were in disarray and/or missing. These problems have contributed to delays in completing the restructuring of the Company’s operations and to a delay in completing and filing Private Media’s SEC reports.

Following the election of the new directors and the appointment of its new Chief Executive Officer, Private Media’s new management in 2012 initiated a plan to restructure and recapitalize Private Media. Management’s short-term goals included the following:

~~Company,~~2012) ~~the~~for ~~Nasdaq de-listing,~~ the ~~operational~~outstanding ~~and~~principal ~~other difficulties in integrating Private Media’s Game Link~~ and ~~Sureflix~~accrued ~~businesses,~~interest ~~and~~on the ~~deteriorating~~Commerzbank ~~relations~~Note, ~~between~~costs ~~Private~~associated ~~Media and~~with ~~its~~enforcing ~~distributors~~Consipio’s ~~and~~rights ~~customers.~~as ~~Furthermore,~~provided ~~upon~~for ~~assuming~~under ~~control following~~ the ~~January~~Commerzbank ~~2012 annual meeting of shareholders~~Note, ~~our~~court-awarded attorney’s ~~new~~fees ~~officers~~ and ~~directors~~additional ~~discovered~~amounts ~~that~~representing ~~many~~debt ofto ~~Private~~third ~~Media’s~~parties ~~important~~previously ~~financial~~assumed ~~and~~by ~~corporate records were in disarray and/or missing~~Consipio. ~~These~~In ~~problems~~addition ~~have contributed~~ to ~~delays~~its inobligations ~~completing~~to ~~the~~Consipio, ~~restructuring~~Private ofMedia ~~the~~also ~~Company’s~~owed ~~operations~~Tisbury ~~and~~Services to a ~~delay~~total inof ~~completing~~$450,000 ~~and~~to ~~filing~~repay ~~Private Media~~Tisbury’s ~~SEC reports~~legal costs.

1. Repay its obligations to Consipio and Tisbury. In the aggregate, Private Media owed Consipio in excess of EUR 8 million (approximately $10,582,000 based on the euro-dollar exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2012) for the outstanding principal and accrued interest on the Commerzbank Note, costs associated with enforcing Consipio’s rights as provided for under the Commerzbank Note, court-awarded attorney’s fees and additional amounts representing debt to third parties previously assumed by Consipio. In addition to its obligations to Consipio, Private Media also owed Tisbury Services a total of $450,000 to repay Tisbury’s legal costs.

2. Settle and dismiss the Nevada Action and the other pending lawsuits/arbitration proceedings with Consipio and with Mr. Bunimovitz.

3. Return Private Media’s operations to the geographic and product markets in which it has historically operated and in which the “Private” brand can be most effectively exploited. Accordingly, management’s goal was to divest itself of its U.S. and Canadian operations and facilities, and to consolidate its operations into its Barcelona, Spain, headquarters. Also, management did not believe that the digital distribution of gay adult content was consistent with the Company’s historic adult content offerings.

4. Streamline and reduce Private Media’s facilities, operations, subsidiaries and employees in order to reduce the Company’s overhead and other operational expenses.

5. Raise capital to fund its short-term working capital needs and its growth plans.

6. Restructure a EUR 1.0 million outstanding obligation to an institutional lender under a defaulted line of credit.

To date, Private Media has successfully met a number of the foregoing goals. As discussed in greater detail below in this Annual Report, new management has accomplished the following:

A. Effective December 28, 2012, Private Media settled its lawsuit with Consipio. Private Media owed the outstanding balance of the Commerzbank Note, the legal fees and costs that the Nevada State Court ordered Private Media to pay, the legal fees and costs Private Media was required to pay Consipio because of the New York lawsuit, and approximately EUR 1.7 million that Private Media owed third parties, which obligations were acquired by Consipio. Since Private Media did not have the funds to repay Consipio in cash, Private Media offered to repay Consipio for all of the foregoing obligations by issuing shares of a new class of preferred stock. As a result, on December 28, 2012, Private Media issued to Consipio a total of 800,000 shares of its new 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock as payment in full. Each share of preferred stock was issued in consideration for EUR 10.00 of debt. We have the right to redeem these shares at any time for EUR 10.00, plus unpaid dividends that accrue at a rate of 6% per annum. See, “Issuance of 6% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; Change of Control” below. As a result of the settlement, all lawsuits with Consipio (in Nevada and New York) have now been dismissed.

B. In May 2012, Private Media settled and terminated both the Nevada Action and the JAMS arbitration that Mr. Bunimovitz had filed against the Company. As part of the settlement and in exchange for full a release from all claims, we (i) transferred to Messrs. Bunimovitz, Sullivan and Marinac (the former owners of the Game Link companies) all of the outstanding capital stock of the ThinkForward, Inc. and GreenCine, Inc. subsidiaries (i.e., the Game Link companies), and (ii) issued to Messrs. Bunimovitz, Sullivan and Marinac an aggregate of 1,772,875 shares of our common stock. The 1,772,875 shares represented the number of shares that Messrs. Bunimovitz, Sullivan and Marinac would have been entitled to under the earn-out provisions under the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of January 20, 2009. The Agreement and Plan of Reorganization was the principal agreement pursuant to which we acquired ThinkForward, Inc. and GreenCine, Inc. See, “Item 13. Certain Relationships And Related Transactions, And Director Independence—Transaction Between the Company and Ilan Bunimovitz, our Former Chief Executive Officer and Director, and Mr. Bunimovitz’ Affiliates,” below.

C. As part of our re-evaluation of prior management’s expansion of its operations outside of its historical European sphere of operations and the expansion of Private Media’s product offerings to include gay adult media, and in order to resolve claims made by the prior owners of Sureflix, alleging misrepresentation and breach of contract, on June 29, 2012 we entered into a settlement agreement with the former owners of Sureflix. Under the Settlement Agreement, in exchange for a full general release, we transferred back to the former owners (including Mr. Johnson, the current Chairman of this Company’s Board of Directors) all of the outstanding capital stock of Sureflix. All intercompany allocations, receivables and payables between Sureflix, on one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, were netted, and we are obligated to re-pay Sureflix the net amount ($224,969) by the end of 2012. The foregoing amount has not been fully repaid, and, as of May 21, 2013, we will owe Sureflix approximately $74,000. See, “Item 13. Certain Relationships And Related Transactions, And Director Independence—Transaction Between the Company and Eric Johnson, a Director, and Mr. Johnson’s Affiliate,” below.

D. Our principal subsidiary owed a European bank EUR 1,073,500 under a defaulted loan that the Company had guaranteed. In December 2012, our new management renegotiated and restructured the loan so that the loan is no longer in default. Under the new terms, the loan will bear interest at a rate of 3% per annum, with interest payments due annually at the end of each calendar year. The repayment dates for the unpaid principal balance have been extended, so that the outstanding principal amount must be repaid as follows: (i) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2016, (ii) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2017, and the balance, (iii) EUR 373,500 is due on January 1, 2018.

E. In order to obtain working capital and to be able to renegotiate the repayment of other short-term obligations at a discount, in February 2013 we entered into a Loan Agreement with three unaffiliated foreign lenders. Under the Loan Agreement, the three lenders agreed to advance us a total of EUR 800,000. The loans bear interest at a rate of 9.9% per annum and are due and payable on December 31, 2014. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. Our obligations under the loans are secured by a lien on certain motion pictures in our film library.

F. As part of our efforts to streamline our operations and reduce overhead expenses, new management has, to date, reduced the Company’s headcount from 45, not including 48 employees of Game Link and Sureflix, in 2011 to 38 employees as of ~~May~~June 2126, 2013, and significantly reduced the amount of space we rent. The reduction in headcount, management costs and rental expenses is expected to save this Company an estimated EUR 741,000 annually. We are also working on closing and consolidating various subsidiaries in order to simplify our financial reporting procedures and to eliminate the corporate costs of maintaining so many subsidiaries (we had 20 subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and as of ~~May~~June 2126, 2013 we had 12 subsidiaries which number is expected to be further reduced).

Issuance of 6% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; Change of Control. As of December 28, 2012, we owed Consipio over EUR 8,000,000 (including principal and interest on the Commerzbank Note, legal fees and costs that we were required to pay as a result of the various legal proceedings related to the collection of the Commerzbank Note, and other liabilities). As of December 28, 2012, we did not have the financial resources to repay all, or even a significant portion of the foregoing amounts owed to Consipio. Accordingly, as payment in full, we agreed to issue to Consipio 800,000 shares of a new series of preferred stock designated as our “6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). Because each share of Series B Preferred Stock was issued at a price of EUR 10.00 per share, the total amount of consideration paid to Consipio for the global settlement was EUR 8,000,000. A total of 1,300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been authorized, of which 800,000 are currently owned by Consipio. We anticipate that we may issue additional shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to repay other creditors and/or to raise additional capital. The principal terms of the Series B Preferred Stock include the following:

Because each share of Series B Preferred Stock was issued at a price of EUR 10.00 per share, the total amount of consideration paid to Consipio for the global settlement was EUR 8,000,000. A total of 1,300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been authorized, of which 800,000 are currently owned by Consipio. We anticipate that we may issue additional shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to repay other creditors and/or to raise additional capital. The principal terms of the Series B Preferred Stock include the following:

•

Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (including a Deemed Liquidation Event), the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid an amount per share equal to EUR 11.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. The liquidation payment is payable before any payment made to the holders of our Common Stock. A Deemed Liquidation Event includes the merger of this Company, the sale of its assets, an uninsured judgment rendered against this Company for EUR 1,000,000 or more, or commencing after July 1, 2013, our failure to file with the SEC any of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Annual Reports on Form 10-K by no later than 30 calendar days after the required filing date (including the expiration of any permitted extensions).

•

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 50 shares of our common stock.

•

Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends at an annual rate of 6% of the EUR 10.00 Series B Preferred Stock original issue price, which shall be cumulative, accrue daily and be payable quarterly, in arrears, in cash on the third business day following March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. However, dividends will cease accruing on the Series B Preferred Stock during any fiscal quarter if all three of the following conditions are met on any day during that fiscal quarter: (i) The Common Stock has been listed or quoted for trading for no less than 60 consecutive trading days on any national U.S. stock exchange (including any market that is part of the Nasdaq Stock Market), the OTC Bulletin Board, and/or on the OTCQX or OTCQB levels of the OTC Markets Group; (ii) The average daily trading volume of the Common Stock for 20 consecutive trading days prior to such date exceeds 10,000 shares, and (iii) The average of the volume weighted average price such 20 consecutive trading days exceeds $1.00 per share (adjusted to reflect any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or stock combination). The dividends payable with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock shall, at the option of Private Media, be paid in Euros or by means of a one-year unsecured promissory note. Any such promissory note will bear interest at a rate of 7.5% per annum and be payable in four quarterly payments commencing one year after the date of the dividend payment. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock may, however, elect to receive shares of our Common Stock in place of some or all of any quarterly dividend (the value of the shares is based on the 10-day trading price of our Common Stock).

•

Provided that we have registered with the SEC the public resale of the shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at our option we may, at any time, redeem the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, for a cash redemption price equal to EUR 10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The redemption price is payable in Euros.

• At any time between December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2018, a holder of the Series B Preferred Stock may demand that we redeem some or all of the holder’s shares of Series B Preferred Stock, to the extent permitted under Nevada law. Each holder may demand that one third of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock the holder initially acquired be redeemed in each calendar year 2016, 2017, and 2018. The redemption price is equal to EUR 10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends and is required to be paid in cash, provided that we do not have to pay cash to the extent that such payments would (i) reduce our cash balance to below EUR 1,000,000, or (ii) cause our current assets to be less than three times our current liabilities, whichever is less. If we can’t pay the entire redemption price in cash, we have to pay the balance in a promissory note. The promissory note used to pay any portion of the redemption price shall: (a) bear interest at a fixed rate of prime plus 4% per annum; (b) be payable in four equal quarterly installments of principal and interest on the last day of each calendar quarter; (c) be prepayable by us at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty; and (d) if necessary to comply with Nevada law governing distributions to shareholders, be subordinated to all of our creditors. We also will have the right to defer any payment under the promissory notes if such payment would violate Nevada law.

necessary to comply with Nevada law governing distributions to shareholders, be subordinated to all of our creditors. We also will have the right to defer any payment under the promissory notes if such payment would violate Nevada law.

•

The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock vote together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class. Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holder would be convertible. However, we may not take certain actions without the approval of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. These actions that require the approval of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock include (i) changing the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series B Preferred Stock or creating a class that is senior to the Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) selling all or substantially all of our assets or merging with another entity if following the merger our shareholders own less than 50% of the voting power in the election of directors, (iii) paying dividends on, or redeeming any shares of our Common Stock, (iv) borrowing more than EUR 2,000,000 in the aggregate, other than trade payables and accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business, and (v) issuing more than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock in any single transaction or related set of transactions.

•

In order to allow certain holders of our Series B Preferred Stock to maintain their percentage interest in our Company, until December 31, 2017 each holder of more than 50,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right to participate in our future capital raising transactions, including the issuances of common stock, debt, preferred stock, options, warrants or other instrument that are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock. The number of securities that a qualified holder of Series B Preferred Stock can purchase in our future capital raising issuances is equal to the ratio of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the qualified holder, to (y) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options, warrants, and other convertible securities.

Change of Control. The 800,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock owned by Consipio are currently convertible into 40,000,000 shares of Private Media Common Stock and, until converted, are entitled to vote on all matters, including the election of directors, on an “as converted” basis. Taking into account the 3,000,000 shares issued to Tisbury under the Tisbury Settlement Agreement, the Company had a total of 27,259,869 shares of Common Stock outstanding on December 28, 2012. Accordingly, since the shares of Series B Preferred Stock that were issued to Consipio have 40,000,000 votes, Consipio acquired 59.4% of the aggregate voting power of Private Media’s capital stock. As a result, Consipio currently has the ability to elect a majority of the members of our board of directors.

Business Summary Overview

We acquire worldwide rights to adult media produced for us by independent producers and then process this content into products suitable for popular physical media formats such as print publications, DVDs, digital media platforms (such as internet websites, mobile telephony and transactional television), and broadcasting (which includes cable, satellite and IPTV). Our branded adult media is available at physical retail locations and through electronic retailers as well as on mobile devices, transaction television platforms and over the Internet. In addition, we provide adult entertainment films to thousands of major hotels around the world. To a lesser extent, in addition to branded adult media products, we also market and distribute branded leisure and novelty products oriented to the adult entertainment lifestyle and generate additional sales through the licensing of our Private trademark to third parties.

Our business was founded in 1965 and achieved initial success through our then flagship print publication, Private, the first full color, hard-core sex publication in the world. As of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, we had compiled a digital archive of more than two million photographs and had more than 500 issues of print publications. Approximately 20,000 copies of our print publications are distributed each month and include a DVD.

In 1992, we expanded our operations to include the production, acquisition, and distribution of adult movies. Our movies, and those that were produced by us in a joint venture with third parties, have to date received more than 200 industry awards. As of December 31, 2012, our video library contained in excess of 1,400 titles. Our goal is to add approximately over 140 hours of video to our library annually.

Since 1997, we have expanded our presence in growing distribution channels such as the Internet and over hand-held devices, including smartphones, tablets and similar devices. We believe that these channels represent a substantial growth opportunity for us in the future.

We launched our first internet website, www.private.com, in 1997. This website provides content directly to consumers over the Internet. We derive revenues from the website primarily through subscriptions.

On January 20, 2009 we expanded our Internet operations through the acquisition of Game Link LLC and its affiliates, companies engaged in digital distribution of adult content over the Internet and eCommerce development. Game Link is a leading US adult entertainment video-on-demand and eCommerce platform through its Game Link.com website. Game Link is based in San Francisco, U.S. On October 29, 2009 we continued the expansion of our digital media platform through the acquisition of Sureflix Digital Distribution and its affiliates, companies engaged in the business of digital distribution of premium gay adult content. Sureflix is a leading global supplier of gay adult programming based in Toronto, Canada. As described elsewhere in this Annual Report, in order to settle on-going litigation, and in order to re-focus our business on our historical geographic and target markets, we transferred ownership of these two businesses to their original owners in 2012. Accordingly, we no longer own or operate either the Game Link or Sureflix businesses.

Corporate Information

Private Media Group, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A. In accordance with Nevada law we maintain a registered office at 3230 Flamingo Road, Suite 156, Las Vegas, Nevada. Our European headquarters and principal offices are located at the offices of one of our principal operating subsidiaries, Milcap Media Group, S.L.U., whose address is Calle de la Marina 16-18, Floor 18, Suite D, 08005 Barcelona, Spain, telephone +34-93-620 80 90. Our corporate website address is www.prvt.com. We do not incorporate the information on our website into this Annual Report, and you should not consider such information part of this annual report.

We currently operate through 12 subsidiaries, of which only 8 actively conduct business. The parent company, Private Media Group, Inc., was originally incorporated in 1980 as a Utah corporation under the name Glacier Investment Company, Inc. for the purpose of acquiring or merging with an established company. In 1991, we changed our domicile to the State of Nevada. On December 19, 1997 Private Media Group, Inc. entered into acquisition agreements with Milcap Media Limited and Cine Craft Limited to acquire all of their outstanding capital stock in exchange for shares of its common stock, $4.00 Series A Preferred Stock, and common stock purchase warrants. Private Media Group, Inc. completed these acquisitions on June 12, 1998. In connection with these transactions, in December 1997 the parent company changed its corporate name to Private Media Group, Inc. Glacier Investment Company, Inc. had no material business activity prior to its acquisition of Milcap Media Limited and Cine Craft Limited in June 1998.

Our Strategy

Our goal is to be a preferred content provider of branded adult media to adult consumers across all distribution platforms and devices. To date, we have developed the strategies described below to compete in our markets. Our strategy is continually evolving to face the changing conditions in our markets and advances in technology. In general, our current strategy is as follows:

Leverage our brand.

As Europe’s leading producer and distributor of adult media for over 45 years, we have developed strong brand awareness within our markets. Our strategy is to leverage our “Private” brand name to increase our market share for adult entertainment products in existing distribution channels, and to gain access to new consumers in new markets and on new platforms.

Distribute our adult entertainment products through all new technology and distribution channels.

We actively seek out and utilize new and developing delivery platforms and technologies to distribute our existing and new content. Since we can convert our content to many digital platforms for a minimal incremental cost and thereby increase revenues and our brand exposure, our strategy is to make our content available to all existing and new digital devices, such as computers, digital cable and satellite television, IPTV and, more recently, hand-held devices including smart phones, tablet computers, similar devices.

Exploit our large library of content.

We own an extensive library of adult media that we have produced and acquired since our formation. Our strategy is to distribute our vast library of content, which was created for one type of media, in other distribution channels. Accordingly, our strategy is to convert and/or repackage our existing products and then distribute these products across all digital platforms and devices.

Our Competitive Strengths

We believe the following strengths, among others, are critical to our future within the market for adult media:

Recognized brand name

We believe that our target customers associate the Private brand name with high quality adult media. This name recognition attracts leading producers of adult media, as well as distributors and prospective joint venture partners interested in working with the Company. We believe that the strength of our brand name leads to more favorable economic terms than we could otherwise obtain in our processing and distribution contracts, and enables us to negotiate favorable revenue sharing arrangements and joint ventures from which we derive significant licensing fees.

Established market position and distribution network

We have access to a well-established worldwide distribution network which has been built up over the past 45 years, including over 100,000 physical points of sale in over 40 countries as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012. Some of our distribution relationships are exclusive distribution arrangements, which improve our market position and enhance our distribution capabilities. This broad distribution network provides an effective channel to introduce new products and services and new formats for existing products and services. In digital media categories, we have entered into strategic alliances with a number of leading international service providers.

Extensive library of high quality adult media

We have an extensive library of high quality adult media. As of December 31, 2012, our library included still photographs developed for more than 500 back-issues of magazines and in excess of 1,400 movie titles. We hold exclusive worldwide rights to this entire content archive. This has enabled us to enter into distribution arrangements with a wide range of media platforms, including leading international telecoms and broadcasting companies. To facilitate electronic distribution of our products, we have converted our entire archive of print images into a digital format. Our video archive is now also stored in rich media digital format, which can be converted into any known file format and delivered digitally online or on hard drives.

Content acquisition strategy

We acquire adult media from third-party producers/directors on a project-by-project basis. This approach gives us substantial flexibility in terms of production volume and delivery time, significantly reduces our fixed production overhead and largely eliminates the risk to us of cost overruns in production.

Experienced management

Our management team has extensive experience in the acquisition and distribution of adult media and in general business administration.

Our Principal Products and Markets

Physical Media Segment (Magazine and DVD Publications)

We are the publisher of Private, an international X-rated magazine, and Private branded adult media on DVDs. Private was founded in 1965, and was the first full color, hard-core sex publication in the world. Although this market has declined significantly in recent years we still maintain a robust presence in points of sale across Europe including retail, e-commerce platforms and newspaper kiosks.

Direct-to-Consumer Segment (Internet Services)

Our Direct-to-Consumer segment derives revenue primarily through subscriptions to our adult consumer websites, including our private.com site. Content for the websites is primarily obtained from our own productions. Traffic to our consumer websites is derived through either a targeted network of affiliates that earn a referral fee from us when diverted traffic converts into paying members, or type-in traffic whereby users navigate directly to the websites by typing the addresses of our websites into their web browsers.

~~Content~~10 ~~Segment (Wireless—Mobile Entertainment)~~

Content Segment (Wireless – Mobile Entertainment)

We launched our mobile content program in 2003. We generate revenues from mobile telephony transactions both on-portal and off-portal. Currently, our principal markets for this product are Europe and South America. Our product offering to operator portals consists of mobile downloads, including wallpapers, screensavers, video clips and video streaming. Our off-portal business is increasingly an extension of our direct-to-consumer segment.

Transactional TV Segment

Our transactional television segment was our largest segment in fiscal year ~~2011~~2012. This segment of our operations generates revenues primarily through the distribution of adult programming on video-on-demand (VOD) platforms. VOD distribution primarily occurs through cable operators or IPVT providers. VOD presents viewers with layered menus that allow viewers to interactively select a motion picture/video and then view it either immediately or at a later time. We believe consumers prefer VOD services relative to our pay-per-view (PPV) offerings because of the variety of content available through VOD platforms, and because of the flexibility VOD services provide in viewing times.

Our Transactional TV segment also distributes adult programming to cable and satellite television companies for PPV channels. PPV typically provides consumers access to a timed block of programming (programming that is available only at specified times) for a fee payable to their cable or satellite provider. Our PPV programming is offered on channels that are available to viewers through the same electronic program guides that display basic cable channels.

We typically earn revenue in our Transactional TV segment by receiving a percentage of the total retail purchase price paid by consumers to purchase our content on customers’ VOD and PPV platforms.

Branded Broadcast Channel Segment

We initiated our broadcasting business in 2000, and currently offer two adult content broadcast channels, one in Europe and one in Latin America. Our two branded channels are provided as part of a joint venture with Playboy TV and a South American partner respectively. These channels are distributed to cable operators, IPTV and direct broadcast satellite platforms on a revenue share or CPS (cents per subscriber) basis.

VIDEO

Production

In 1992, we began releasing movies under the Private label. We acquire our content from independent producers that are carefully selected and are subject to strict quality controls. All producers assume production costs, obligations and legal responsibilities, including among other things, the delivery of rights, model releases and all production-related paperwork. The producers deliver the movies on digital masters to us. We then arrange for the digital masters, as necessary, to be customized, dubbed, sub-titled and encoded. All marketing material and artwork for video covers is created in-house.

As of December 31, 2012, our movie library contained in excess of 1,400 movie titles. Almost all titles are available on any available digital format.

Distribution

We distribute our productions worldwide via digital files and digital masters. We license our movies to IPTV, cable and satellite television networks and adult pay-per-view television channels. These licenses generally grant the operator a specific right of transmission and we retain the intellectual property rights of every production. We edit many of our new feature movie releases into several versions depending on the media through which they are to be distributed. Versions edited for cable, satellite and hotel television programming may be less sexually explicit than the versions edited for home video distribution. DVDs are sold or rented in video stores, adult lifestyle retailers, newsstands and other retail outlets, and where permitted, through direct mail.

DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER (INTERNET SERVICES)

Private Media’s internet platform offers adult content directly to consumers.

Private.com (www.private.com) is our membership site that offers access to high-quality adult content, including video clips, photosets, a library of all “Private” magazines ever published.

Revenue from our websites is generated primarily through subscriptions purchased by our customers. Content for the websites is primarily obtained from our own productions. Traffic to our consumer websites is derived through either a targeted network of affiliates that earn a referral fee from us when diverted traffic converts into paying members, or type-in traffic whereby users navigate directly to the websites by typing the addresses of our websites into their web browsers.

TRANSACTIONAL TELEVISION SEGMENT

The transaction television segment of our operations consists of the distribution of adult programming on the IPTV and cable system (VOD) platforms.

In-Room Entertainment

The Company also licenses the right to use its content to hospitality service entertainment operators primarily for hotel room systems.

WIRELESS— – MOBILE CONTENT

We generate revenues from on-portal and off-portal mobile content. The market currently consists of wallpapers, screensavers, video clips and video streaming.

PHYSICAL MEDIA SEGMENT (MAGAZINE PUBLICATIONS/DVDs)

Magazines. Our publishing operations include the publication of Private magazine. This magazine is distributed primarily in Europe. Our magazines feature pictures of men and women engaged in erotic and sexually explicit situations. ~~During~~and ~~2011~~are wepackaged ~~distributed~~together ~~approximately~~with ~~20,000~~one ~~copies~~or ofmore ~~our~~DVDs ~~print~~and ~~publications~~distributed ~~packaged together~~bi-monthly ~~with~~(six ~~our~~issues ~~DVDs~~ per ~~month~~ year).

Our magazines are distributed to newsstands and other public retail outlets through a network of national distributors, who maintain a local network of wholesale and retail distributors. Newsstand retail sales are permitted in most of Europe and we distribute our magazines to newsstands in these markets. Independent distributors who distribute our magazines do so under individual firm sales distribution agreements.

We print all of our proprietary magazines in Barcelona, Spain and ship them from the Netherlands. We determine the amount of printed publications bi-monthly with input from each of our national distributors.

DVDs. We have entered into distribution agreements in over 20 countries. Under these distribution agreements we provide our back catalogue of titles and all our new titles each month during the term of the agreement, and a licensee normally serves as the exclusive distributor throughout its own country or language territory. In general, we believe that national distribution agreements enable us to have an ongoing branded presence in international markets and to generate higher and more consistent revenues than we could achieve selling directly to retailers.

BRANDED BROADCASTING

In November 2005 the Company and Playboy TV International signed a non-exclusive five-year agreement to launch an adult pay-TV channel in Europe. The new channel was launched, and currently still operates, under the name of Private Spice. In 2010, we renewed the Private Spice agreement with Playboy for an additional five-year term. Under our agreement, Playboy TV International operates, distributes and markets the channel, and we provide the video content, the use of our “Private” brand, and some marketing support. We generate revenues from our joint venture with Playboy on a profit sharing basis commensurate with our content contribution to the channel. The programming in the Private Spice channel, including the language and content, is tailored to the local market in Europe in which the channel is offered. The channel is available in Europe via cable, satellite, Digital Terrestrial Television (“DTT”) and IPTV platforms.

The Private Gold channel was launched in Latin America in 2001. In 2005, we entered into an exclusive agreement with Playboy TV Latin America to operate and distribute a “Private” branded channel throughout Latin America. Under the terms of the agreement, Playboy TV Latin America operates and distributes the channel via its pay television distribution network. The channel originally was titled “Private Gold.” In 2009, the channel was re-branded as the “Private Channel.” We generate revenues from our agreement with Playboy TV Latin America on a revenue share basis.

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

General

We believe that our branded video and magazine titles and logos are valuable assets and are vital to the success and future growth of our businesses. We have filed trademark registration applications with respect to most of our trade names and logos. We believe that the name recognition and image that we have developed in each of our markets significantly enhances customer response to our sales promotions. We intend to aggressively defend our trademarks throughout the world, and we constantly monitor the marketplace for counterfeit products. We initiate legal proceedings from time to time to prevent unauthorized use of our trademarks. Our principal trademark name and logo is “Private.”

Piracy Problems

Our content is constantly being pirated on the Internet. We have an internal program for challenging websites that publish our content without our permission. The program includes subscribing to different legal programs and services concerned with internet piracy.

Our legal counsel handles most piracy problems and attempts to resolve these matters or litigate them on a case-by-case basis. ~~During 2011, we had eleven lawsuits pending to enforce our proprietary rights against alleged illegal copyright infringers.~~

COMPETITION

General Considerations

The adult media industry is highly competitive, highly fragmented, consists of a very large number of competitors, and is constantly changing. We believe our most challenging competition recently has been from low-cost and free adult internet websites. The increase in the availability of free and low-cost internet websites, as well as the decline in global economic conditions, has caused consumers to seek lower-cost options for obtaining adult content. We believe that consumers who would otherwise purchase our content have been obtaining their content through low-cost and free adult internet websites. Additionally, consumers are generally migrating away from television as a viewing platform of choice. We believe these developments have resulted and may continue to result in further competitive pressures on us from free and low-cost adult internet websites. Furthermore, we have traditionally competed against other, larger companies that offer competing products. However, because of the relatively low barrier to entry and the ease with which media can be produced and made available over the Internet, our competitors now also include numerous small publishers of adult content.

However, because of the relatively low barrier to entry and the ease with which media can be produced and made available over the Internet, our competitors now also include numerous small publishers of adult content.

We believe that we have a competitive advantage because of (i) our established and highly recognized “Private” brand, (ii) the quality of our content, and (iii) the existing distribution arrangements that we have established over numerous years. We have few long-term or exclusive service agreements with our customers. Business generation is based primarily on customer satisfaction with key factors in a purchase decision including reliability, timeliness, quality and price. We believe that our extensive and longstanding international operations, our brand name, image and reputation, as well as the quality of our content and our distributors, provide a significant competitive advantage over many of our competitors.

Internet

The internet market for adult oriented content has expanded dramatically over the past years. Because it is easy and inexpensive to establish an Internet presence, there is significant competition among distributors of adult media over the Internet. There are numerous adult media websites competing with ours, some of which are operated by companies that possess global distribution, broadcasting and branding. Historically pay sites have contained most of the adult media on the Internet, but recently the “YouTube-like” adult video sites that are commonly known as “tube sites,” offering free content, have become a serious threat to both paid internet and DVD distribution of adult media. The “tube sites” feature free adult videos, some of which consists of unlicensed, or pirated, excerpts of professionally produced adult movies (including at times pirated versions of Private Media’s proprietary videos). The availability of these free adult videos has diminished the demand for our paid video offerings on our proprietary websites and for our other products, and has diluted the market presence of our website. The tube sites have materially affected the revenues we generate from our website and other product offerings.

Broadcasting

The distribution of adult movies on cable and satellite television systems and hotel pay-per-view systems is highly competitive. Competition in this area is increasing in line with increasing consumer demand for hard-core adult entertainment generally. Our strongest geographical market position for cable and television and distribution is in Europe and Latin America, with the channels, Private Spice and Private, and licensing arrangements with established European television networks and IPTV platforms operated by international telcos.

DVDs

The distribution of adult entertainment DVDs is a highly competitive business. Revenue generation for motion picture entertainment products depends, in part, upon general economic conditions, but the competitive position of a producer or distributor is still greatly affected by the quality of, and public response to, the entertainment product it makes available to the marketplace. Competition arises from established adult video producers and from independent companies distributing low-quality material. The introduction of a large number of free content internet sites that allow users to access large libraries of content has created an even more challenging environment where both sales volume and margins are decreasing substantially.

Magazines

There are numerous publishers of hard-core adult magazines and paperback books. However, we believe that our print publications are dissimilar to many of the other adult publications in style and format. Magazines such as Playboy and Penthouse and similar print publications do not compete directly with our publications, since we consider them to be softcore publications. There are several hard-core publications in each country where our magazines are sold. In general, these are printed in limited editions and are of lower quality than our publications.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, ~~2011 we employed 93 people which included 37 and 11 employees, respectively, employed by our Game Link and Sureflix companies. During~~ 2012, ~~we disposed of the Game Link~~ and ~~Sureflix~~ companies, and the number of our employees has decreased as a result. In addition, as part of the internal reorganization undertaken by our new management, we have further reduced the number of persons we employ. As of MayJune 2126, 2013, we employed a total of 38 employees. All of our employees are employed at our headquarters in Barcelona, Spain.

Our employees in Spain are represented by two labor unions. We have never experienced a work stoppage and believe that we have a good relationship with our employees.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

We operate in a highly regulated industry, both domestically and internationally. The laws and regulations of the various jurisdictions and countries in which we operate regulate all aspects of our business and products. Our materials are currently published and distributed in, or otherwise available in many countries, each of which has its own regulatory framework. In particular, these regulations require us to be aware of, and to comply with, varying laws relating to decency and obscenity and the provisions that apply to the protection of minors, as well as regulations that relate to licensing, foreign investment and use of confidential customer information. In addition, as a publisher and distributor of entertainment in printed and other formats, we have to comply with all of the other rules and regulations that apply to publishers and distributors of other forms of publication. Changes in the regulation of our operations or changes in interpretations of existing regulations by courts or regulators or our inability to comply with current or future regulations could have a material adverse impact on our financial position and results of operations.

SEASONALITY

Our businesses are generally not seasonal in nature.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in evaluating our business and us. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Associated With Our Business and Operations.

As a result of operating losses, the opinion of our independent registered public accounting firm expresses substantial doubt, about our ability to continue as a going concern. In each of the past three years we have experienced substantial net losses (net losses of EUR 4,335,000 in 2010, EUR 29,324,000 in 2011 and EUR 2,308,000 in 2012). At December 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of EUR 174,000 and a working capital deficit of EUR 2,416,000. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm has concluded that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, and has modified its report in the form of an explanatory paragraph describing the events that have given rise to this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern is based on our ability to generate or obtain sufficient cash to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Since December 31, 2011, most of the directors on our former Board of Directors have been removed and replaced by new directors. In addition, in December 2011 our prior Chief Executive Officer was indefinitely suspended (he was officially terminated in March 2012) and our Chief Financial Officer was terminated on December 15, 2011. As a result, as of early in 2012 Private Media is under new management. Our new officers and directors have attempted to address the prior net losses, the large amount of outstanding indebtedness, our working capital deficit and our need for additional working capital. Among other things, since the beginning of 2012, new management has repaid EUR 8,000,000 of indebtedness in shares of the Company’s new 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, has restructured our defaulted EUR 1,000,000 bank credit facility, has raised EUR 800,000 of working capital through loans from three non-affiliated lenders, has reduced the Company’s overhead by reducing the number of employees at December 31, 2012 to 38 and closing an office (which actions are collectively expected to provide estimated savings of EUR 741,000 annually), and has settled the two lawsuits that have burdened the Company’s financial resources and distracted the Company from its operations. These actions have improved the Company’s balance sheet and have reduced the Company’s ongoing operating expenses. In addition, in order to redirect the Company’s focus back to its historic business and geographic market, in 2012 new management also divested the Company of the Game Link and Sureflix operations that former management acquired in 2009. While the divestment of the Game Link and Sureflix companies has resulted in a significant decrease in new sales and has reduced the Company’s total assets, new management believes that the distraction caused by these distant operations and by the different product offerings (for example, the Company has not historically engaged in the gay media distribution market that was the focus of Sureflix) will improve the Company’s longer term operations and net profits. No assurance can, however, be given that these and other on-going changes will improve the Company’s future operations or that the Company will not continue to incur significant losses in the future. There can be no assurance that we will ever be able to operate profitably in the future.

Our future capital requirements and needs for additional financing are uncertain. Although we expect that our available cash resources and cash we expect to generate from operations will be sufficient to meet our presently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months based upon our present plan of operation, we believe that we may need to raise additional funds to (i) repay some legacy liabilities Private Media incurred under prior management, and (ii) to support new management’s modified business and growth plans and any unanticipated capital requirements. If we cannot obtain the additional financing that we have projected that we believe we will need to support our growing operations and to fully implement our plan of operations, our future operations will be hindered, and our ability to grow and become profitable will be jeopardized. In addition, if adequate funds are not available to us, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products and services, take advantage of future opportunities, maintain the scope of our operations or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements, all of which could harm our business. We have not identified the sources for the additional financing that we intend to obtain, and we do not have commitments from any third parties to provide this financing. There can be no assurance that sufficient funding will be available to us at acceptable terms or at all. Any additional equity funding that we obtain will reduce the percentage ownership held by our existing security holders.

Our business is highly competitive, and we risk losing significant market share and revenues if we are unable to effectively compete. We operate in an extremely competitive market. We compete with a number of other businesses that offer various adult-oriented publications or media products, including Playboy Enterprises, Inc., Vivid Entertainment, Larry Flynt Publications, Inc. (Hustler and New Frontier), and Manwin. Many of our competitors have significantly greater market presence, name recognition and financial and technical resources than we do. In addition, these companies may develop products or services that are more attractive to our target market than our products or services and/or they may be more successful than us in marketing their products or services.

Our future capital requirements and needs for additional financing are uncertain. Although we expect that our available cash resources and cash we expect to generate from operations will be sufficient to meet our presently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months based upon our present plan of operation, we believe that we may need to raise additional funds to (i) repay some legacy liabilities Private Media incurred under prior management, and (ii) to support new management’s modified business and growth plans and any unanticipated capital requirements.

Our business is highly competitive, and we risk losing significant market share and revenues if we are unable to effectively compete. We operate in an extremely competitive market. We compete with a number of other businesses that offer various adult-oriented publications or media products, including Playboy Enterprises, Inc., Vivid Entertainment, Larry Flynt Publications, Inc. (Hustler and New Frontier), and Manwin. Many of our competitors have significantly greater market presence, name recognition and financial and technical resources

than we do. In addition, these companies may develop products or services that are more attractive to our target market than our products or services and/or they may be more successful than us in marketing their products or services. We believe that the adult entertainment market will continue to shift towards the use of explicit sexual content, our principal market, resulting in increased competition in this area of our business. In our internet business, we compete with other adult media websites as to the content of their programming and for subscription fees from subscribers and users. In addition, the growing availability of free adult entertainment through free websites has resulted in additional pressure on our business, which has adversely affected revenues and margins.

Free content on the Internet and competition from the “tube sites” is increasing competition for our products and is changing the dynamics of the marketplace for our products. Demand for Private Media’s paid products is being significantly impacted by the availability of free adult entertainment available on the Internet in general and at the “YouTube-like” adult video sites that are commonly known as “tube sites.” The “tube sites” feature free adult videos, some of which consist of unlicensed, or pirated, excerpts of professionally produced adult movies (including at times pirated versions of Private Media’s proprietary videos). The availability of these free adult videos has diminished the demand for Private Media’s paid video offerings on our proprietary website and for our other products, and has diluted the market presence of our website. The tube sites have materially affected the revenues we generate from our website and other product offerings. It is uncertain what affect these tube sites and other free internet adult websites will have on our on-going operations and our future financial results. No assurance can be given that we will be able to effectively compete against the tube sites and other internet products.

The market for our adult oriented products is changing rapidly, and unless we are able to anticipate these changes and rapidly adapt, we will lose market share. The adult entertainment sector is seeing rapid declines in its core business (i.e. DVD and magazine sales) as consumer consumption of adult content has shifted from physical media to digital distribution. Online usage itself is changing rapidly as technological advancements allow the deployment of more advanced and interactive multimedia services. In addition, multiple new mobile smartphone technologies and capabilities are adding new distribution venues for digital content. As a result of these new digital distribution channels, we have to rapidly develop new business models, products and distribution models that will allow us to otherwise capitalize on our large library of titles that we own. The free internet adult video offerings and the new mobile telephony offerings have affected sales of our print publications and our DVD sales. Unless we are able to effectively modify our business model to compete with the products offered digitally on the Internet or elsewhere, our market share, revenues and profits from our product offerings could decrease. Although we are currently deploying new mobile phone and smart television products, no assurance can be given that we will remain competitive in the rapidly changing adult entertainment marketplace. Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies, to enhance existing services and to develop and introduce a variety of new services to address changing demands of our consumers.

Our business involves the provision of sexually explicit content which can create negative publicity, lawsuits and boycotts. We are engaged in the business of providing adult-oriented, sexually explicit products worldwide. Many people regard our primary business as unwholesome. Various national and local governments, along with religious and children’s advocacy groups, consistently propose and enact legislation to restrict the provision of, access to, and content of such entertainment. These groups also often file lawsuits against providers of adult entertainment, encourage boycotts against such providers and mount negative publicity campaigns. In this regard, our magazines, and some of our distribution outlets and advertisers, have from time-to-time been the target of groups who seek to limit the availability of our products because of their content. We expect to continue to be subject to these activities.

The adult-oriented content of our websites may also subject us to obscenity or other legal claims by third parties. We may also be subject to claims based upon the content that is available on our websites through links to other sites and in jurisdictions that we have not previously distributed content in. Implementing measures to reduce our exposure to this liability may require us to take steps that would substantially limit the attractiveness of our websites and/or their availability in various geographic areas, which could negatively impact their ability to generate revenue.

reduce our exposure to this liability may require us to take steps that would substantially limit the attractiveness of our websites and/or their availability in various geographic areas, which could negatively impact their ability to generate revenue.

In addition, some investors, investment banks, market makers, lenders and others in the investment community may refuse to participate in the market for our common stock, financings or other activities due to the nature of our primary business. These refusals may negatively impact the value of our common stock and our opportunities to attract market support.

We face online security risks in connection with our Internet business. Online security breaches could materially adversely affect our business. Any well-publicized compromise of security could deter use of the Internet in general or use of the Internet to conduct transactions that involve transmitting confidential information or downloading sensitive materials in particular. In offering online payment services, we rely on technology licensed from third parties to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of confidential information, such as consumer credit card numbers. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of data encryption or other developments could compromise or breach the methods and procedures that we use to protect our consumers’ transaction data. In addition, unaffiliated programmers/hackers may attempt to steal proprietary information or cause interruptions in our services. To prevent such developments we may need to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against these problems.

Continued imposition of tighter processing restrictions by credit card associations and acquiring banks would make it more difficult to generate revenues from Internet and mobile telephone transactions. Our ability to accept credit cards as a form of payment for our online and mobile phone products and services is critical to us. There are ongoing efforts by credit card and other payment associations to restrict the processing of payments for online and mobile adult-related content. To protect against such restrictions, we must invest heavily in new technologies to protect against fraud. Unlike a merchant handling a sales transaction in a non-internet environment, e-commerce merchants are fully responsible for all fraud perpetrated against them.

Our ability to accept credit cards as a form of payment for our online products and services could be restricted or denied for many reasons, including:

•

Visa Tier 1 capital ratio requirements for financial institutions have significantly reduced the total dollar sales volume of Visa credit card activity that any bank can process in any given month;

•

if we experience excessive chargebacks and/or credits;

•

if we experience excessive fraud ratios;

•

if there is a breach of our security resulting in a theft of credit card data;

•

if there is a change in policy of the acquiring banks and/or credit card associations with respect to the processing of credit card charges for adult-related content;

•

tightening of credit card association chargeback regulations in international commerce;

•

banks might choose not to accept accounts with adult-related content.

American Express has instituted a policy of not processing credit card charges for online, adult-related content. If other credit card processing companies were to implement a similar policy, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We outsource our production and distribution. We acquire still photography and motion pictures/video content from independent producers/directors, and we rely on third-party distributors to deliver our products to end-users through multiple distribution channels, including newsstands, the Internet and broadcasting. Our relationship with such producers/directors and distributors is contractually based. We cannot guarantee that our contracts with directors will be fulfilled or that we will enter into new ones, in which case we may not have adequate content for our magazines and movies. Also, we cannot guarantee that our contracts with distributors will be renewed, in which case we may not be able to sell new products through some or all channels or into some countries. Failure to secure new production contracts, to secure the fulfillment of current contracts or to maintain our current distribution contracts could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

19New technological changes may render our equipment uneconomical or obsolete. As technologies change, the equipment used in our markets may become obsolete. As a result, we subcontract and intend to continue to

New technological changes may render our equipment uneconomical or obsolete. As technologies change, the equipment used in our markets may become obsolete. As a result, we subcontract and intend to continue to subcontract capital intensive or technically complex businesses such as editing, DVD replication and other similar businesses. However, we may not have access to these subcontractors when their services are required, and their services may not be available on favorable terms.

Increased government regulation in the United States or abroad could limit our ability to deliver content and expand our business. New laws or regulations relating to the Internet, or more aggressive application of existing laws, could decrease the growth of our websites, prevent us from making our content available in various jurisdictions or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. These new laws or regulations could relate to liability for information retrieved from or transmitted over the Internet, taxation, user privacy and other matters relating to our products and services. For example, the U.S. government has recently enacted laws regarding website privacy, copyrights and taxation. Moreover, the application to the Internet of existing laws governing issues such as intellectual property ownership and infringement, pornography, obscenity, libel, employment and personal privacy is uncertain and developing. In addition, adult content remains prohibited or strictly controlled in many geographic markets. Some markets, such China, are strengthening their anti-pornography stances, providing a major challenge for adult entertainment providers.

Cable system operators could also become subject to new governmental regulations that could further restrict their ability to broadcast our programming. If new regulations make it more difficult for cable operators to broadcast our programming, our operating performance would be adversely affected.

We face risks relating to our proprietary intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination of copyright and trademark laws, trade secrets, software security measures, license agreements and non-disclosure agreements to protect our proprietary products. Despite these precautions, unauthorized third parties copy parts of, or otherwise obtain and use our videos, photographs and other products without our permission. In addition, unauthorized users occasionally use our concepts and products and market them to our established customer base. Products sold over the Internet are particularly vulnerable to piracy, particularly in some developing countries. In addition, we cannot be certain that others will not develop substantially equivalent or superseding products, thereby reducing the value of our proprietary rights. Confidentiality agreements with our employees or license agreements with our customers may not provide meaningful protection for our proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure of that proprietary information.

We do not believe that our products infringe the proprietary rights of third parties, and we are not currently the subject of any intellectual property litigation or proceedings. Nonetheless, in the future we could become the subject of infringement claims or legal proceedings by third parties with respect to current or future products. In addition, we may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our proprietary rights. We cannot be sure that any lawsuits or other actions brought by us will be successful or that we will not be found to infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties. In addition, to the extent we may desire, or are required, to obtain licenses to patents or proprietary rights of others, there can be no guarantee that any such licenses will be made available on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Enforcement of civil liabilities against Private Media and its management may be difficult. Presently, most of our directors and officers reside outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon them or to enforce, in courts outside the United States, judgments against these persons obtained in U.S. courts based upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. In addition, since the disposition of our Game Link operations, virtually all of our assets are now located outside the United States. As a result, a judgment obtained in the United States against us may not be fully collectible within the United States.

In addition, since the disposition of our Game Link operations, virtually all of our assets are now located outside the United States. As a result, a judgment obtained in the United States against us may not be fully collectible within the United States.

There are risks associated with our international operations. As a European based enterprise, a majority of our operations are conducted outside the United States. In addition, our growth strategy contemplates increased services to foreign customers and to domestic customers distributing programming to international markets. As a consequence of the global nature of our business, we will be exposed to market risks from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates that may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. By virtue of our significant cross-border operations, we will be subject to the risks normally associated with such activities, including those relating to delayed payments from customers in some countries or difficulties in the collection of receivables generally.

In addition, we will be exposed to the risk of changes in social, political and economic conditions in the countries where we engage in business. Political and economic instability in these countries could adversely affect our business activities and operations. Unexpected changes in local regulatory requirements, tariffs and other trade barriers and price or exchange controls could limit operations and make the repatriation of profits difficult. In addition, the uncertainty of differing legal environments could limit our ability to effectively enforce our rights in some markets.

We are subject to risks relating to performers. Our movie, video and photo productions are subject to U.S. and foreign regulations which govern the terms and conditions under which sexually explicit media productions may occur. We have adopted practices and procedures that are intended to ensure compliance with these regulations. Although these measures are intended to protect us from liability under applicable U.S. and foreign laws governing sexually explicit media productions, we cannot guarantee that we will not be subject to successful legal attacks in the future. Any material violation of the rules and regulations concerning the production of sexually explicit media in a jurisdiction could subject us to significant financial penalties and could limit our ability to conduct future operations in that jurisdiction.

Risks Associated With Our Securities.

Our principal shareholder holds sufficient number of our common stock to be able to elect our future Board of Directors, to control our operations, and to prevent other shareholders from influencing significant corporate decisions. As of December 28, 2012, Consipio Holding BV, a corporation organized under the laws of The Netherlands, acquired 800,000 shares of our newly created 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. The 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock votes with the shares of our common stock as if it were converted into shares of our common stock. As of the date of this Annual Report, the 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock controls approximately 59.4% of the aggregate voting power of our outstanding common stock. As a result, Consipio has the ability to elect a majority of our directors and the ability to direct the outcome of matters presented to our shareholders, including corporate actions such as:

•

our merger with or into another company;

•

a sale of substantially all of our assets; and

•

amendments to our Articles of Incorporation.

The decisions of Consipio or its elected or designated directors may conflict with our interests or those of our other shareholders. In addition, this concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control, which could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

We do not expect to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Although our shareholders may receive dividends if, as and when declared by our board of directors, we do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, we are prohibited from declaring or paying any dividends to the holders of our common stock until we have paid the cumulative 6% annual dividend to the holders of our 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. Therefore, you should not purchase our common stock if you need immediate or future income by way of dividends from your investment.

21We may issue additional shares of our capital stock that could dilute the value of your shares of common stock. We are authorized to issue 110,000,000 shares of our capital stock, consisting of 100,000,000 shares of our common stock and 10,000,000 shares of our preferred stock. At June 26, 2013, approximately 27,806,211 shares of our common stock were issued and outstanding and 1,700,000 shares of our preferred stock were authorized and available for future issuance. Should we obtain additional financing, we may issue authorized and unissued shares of common stock at below current market prices or preferred stock that could dilute the earnings per share and book value of your shares of our common stock.

Should we obtain additional financing, we may issue authorized and unissued shares of common stock at below current market prices or preferred stock that could dilute the earnings per share and book value of your shares of our common stock.

There are risks relating to the issuance of additional shares of preferred stock, including deterring attempts by third parties to acquire us. Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 1,700,000 additional shares of preferred stock, and to determine their price, and other rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions without any further vote or action by our shareholders. The rights of the holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock, including preferred stock that we may issue in the future. If preferred stock is issued, it may rank senior to our common stock in respect of the right to receive dividends and to participate in distributions or payments in the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up. The provisions in our articles of incorporation authorizing preferred stock could delay, defer or prevent a change of control and could adversely affect the voting and other rights of holders of our common stock, including the loss of voting control to others, which could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us.

Substantial sales of our common stock by the holder of our 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock could cause our common stock price to fall. As of December 31, 2012, there were 27,259,869 outstanding shares of our common stock. However, the shares of our currently outstanding shares of 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock are convertible into another 40,000,000 shares of our common stock. Consipio, the holder of our currently outstanding 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock will be entitled to start selling the shares of common stock into which the preferred stock is convertible in June 2013 under Rule 144. In addition, in order to enable us to redeem the 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, we intend to register the public resale of all shares underlying the 6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock during 2013. Therefore, Consipio will be eligible to resell substantial amounts of our common stock during 2013 in the public market. The sale of a significant number of our shares of common stock by Consipio may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.

Our stock may be traded infrequently and in low volumes, so you may be unable to sell your shares at or near the quoted bid prices if you need to sell your shares. The shares of our common stock may trade infrequently and in low volumes on the OTCQB tier of the OTC Markets, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation may be attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company, we are relatively unknown, we are based in Barcelona, Spain, and conduct most of our operations outside of the U.S., and we are in the adult entertainment business. As a result of these factors, stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community who can generate or influence sales volume, may be reluctant to follow a company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a well-known issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. A broader or more active public trading market for our common shares may not develop or be sustained. Due to these conditions, you may not be able to sell your shares at or near bid prices or at all if you need money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares. As a result, investors could, and should be prepared to, lose all or part of their investment.

22You may have difficulty selling our shares if they are deemed “penny stocks.” Since our common stock is not listed on a Nasdaq Stock Market or a national securities exchange, trading in our common stock will be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock (generally, any non-national securities exchange equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions that we may not fall within in the future). Such rules require the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally defined as an investor with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 together with a spouse). For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to

For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to the broker-dealer, current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Such information must be provided to the customer orally or in writing before or with the written confirmation of trade sent to the customer. Monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of the common stock and the ability of holders of the common stock to sell their shares.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Employment Arbitration and U.S. Department of Labor Claim

On July 23, 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz filed a Demand for Arbitration and related Statement of Claim against the Company with JAMS (Case No. 1100063395), a private arbitration service, pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of his Employment Agreement, contesting his termination as our Chief Executive Officer. In the Statement of Claim, Mr. Bunimovitz alleged that (1) his termination on July 19, 2010, was without “cause” under his written Employment Agreement; (2) the termination was taken in retaliation for Mr. Bunimovitz demanding an independent investigation of Mr. Milton’s alleged “self-dealing transactions and was taken in an effort to silence him”; and (3) the termination of employment was not properly authorized by the Board of Directors, and is therefore invalid. Mr. Bunimovitz sought unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

In March 2011 Mr. Bunimovitz amended his Statement of Claim to include two additional allegations: that the Company improperly failed to allow him to sell shares he received when his company (Game Link LLC) was acquired by Private Media; and that the Company has failed to deliver the shares to which he is entitled to receive under the earnout provisions of the acquisition agreement between the Company and Game Link.

On September 24, 2010, the Company received notice of Claims filed by Bunimovitz with the U.S. Department of Labor against the Company (Case No. 9-3290-10-057) alleging that Bunimovitz was terminated as CEO by Private Media in violation of Section 806 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in retaliation for Bunimovitz raising questions about self-dealing transactions involving the Chairman of the Company and the accuracy of the Company’s public disclosures in light of these transactions, and seeking reinstatement and unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

On November 30, 2011 we entered into that certain Settlement Agreement And Release with Mr. Bunimovitz and Game Link LLC to settle all of the foregoing claims made by Mr. Bunimovitz against us. See, “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.” As a result, the JAMS employment arbitration and the U.S. Department of Labor claim have been settled and dismissed.

Nevada State Court Action (the “Nevada Action”)

On August 11, 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz, together with Consipio Holding BV, a creditor of the Company, and Tisbury Services Inc., filed a Complaint against Private Media Group, Inc. in Nevada County Court (the “Nevada Court”), Clark County, Nevada (Case No. A-10-622802-B) alleging mismanagement of the Company’s business by the Company’s independent directors and Mr. Milton, who at that time was the Company’s Chairman and CEO. The complaint also sought to have Mr. Bunimovitz and another director, Mr. Johnson, appointed as receivers to run the business and affairs of this Company. In 2011, the Nevada Court dismissed the independent directors from action due to lack of jurisdiction over them. Accordingly, other than the Company, there was only one remaining named defendant, Mr. Milton.

On August 25, 2011, the Nevada Court entered an order appointing Eric Johnson, a current director of the Company, as a receiver for the Company, to serve in such capacity until further order of the Nevada Court. As reasons for the appointment of the receiver, the Nevada Court found that the Company had demonstrated a propensity for disregarding or resisting orders of the Nevada Court, specifically by (i) disobeying the Nevada Court’s October 21, 2010 Order regarding Consipio’s right to vote 5.6 million shares at the Company’s 2010 annual meeting of shareholders, (ii) disobeying or resisting the Nevada Court’s July 1, 2011 Order requiring the Company’s Board of Directors to set the record date for a new annual meeting of shareholders, and (iii) failure of the Company’s Board of Directors to seek collection of outstanding loans from the Company to Slingsby Enterprises Limited , an affiliate of Mr. Milton. The Nevada Court further found that the Company’s “directors, most notably Milton, have been guilty of gross mismanagement in the conduct of [the Company’s] affairs” and that the Company’s “assets are in danger of waste, sacrifice or loss.” The Nevada Court found that the appointment of a receiver was “necessary to preserve [the Company’s] remaining assets and business and to protect its shareholders.”

The Nevada Court’s order appointed the receiver for the purposes of (i) preserving the Company’s assets and business, and (ii) setting the date for and conducting the 2011 annual meeting of shareholders. The annual meeting of shareholders was eventually held on January 11, 2012. At the January 11, 2012 annual meeting of shareholders, this Company’s shareholders voted against the re-election of Mr. Milton and the other incumbent directors (other than Mr. Bunimovitz and Mr. Johnson, who was a director and the court-appointed receiver). On April 6, 2012, the Nevada Court entered an order terminating the receivership of Mr. Johnson. Mr. Johnson remains a director of the Company.

On May 22, 2012, the Nevada Court approved and entered that certain Stipulation And Order For Dismissal that provided that (i) the Nevada Action, together with all claims and counterclaims asserted therein, was dismissed, and (ii) the Company was required to reimburse the two named plaintiffs (Consipio Holding BV and Tisbury Services Inc.) for their attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the Nevada Action in an amount to be agreed between the plaintiffs and the Company and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. Accordingly, the Nevada Action has been concluded.

As required by the Nevada Court, the Company has reimbursed Consipio Holding BV and Tisbury Services Inc. for the amount of fees and costs that it owed to them as a result of the Nevada Action. The amounts we owed to Consipio Holding BV and Tisbury Services Inc. with respect to the Nevada Action were determined by the parties and the Company’s Board of Directors to be $2,750,000 and $450,000, respectively. The Company paid Consipio Holding BV and Tisbury Services Inc. the fees and costs that the Nevada Court ordered as follows:

Consipio Holding BV and Tisbury Services Inc. with respect to the Nevada Action were determined by the parties and the Company’s Board of Directors to be $2,750,000 and $450,000, respectively. The Company paid Consipio Holding BV and Tisbury Services Inc. the fees and costs that the Nevada Court ordered as follows:

Tisbury Services, Inc. As payment in full for all amounts the Company owed Tisbury under the Nevada Action, the Company delivered to Tisbury Services, Inc. (i) 3,000,000 shares of unregistered shares of Common Stock, and (ii) a five-year, contingent warrant to purchase up to a total of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The warrant has an exercise price of $0.25 per share and is exercisable in four tranches of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock each if, and only if, when, and to the extent that the number of issued and outstanding shares Common Stock at that time exceeds (i) 45,000,000 shares, (ii) 50,000,000 shares, (iii) 60,000,000 shares, and (iv) 70,000,000 shares (as adjusted to reflect stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends, and other similar events). In the event that the number of issued and outstanding shares during the term of the warrant does not exceed some or all of the foregoing limits, the warrant shall expire with respect to the unexercisable shares. Tisbury has accepted the foregoing 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock and the warrant as payment and satisfaction, in full, of all amounts owed, or that may be owed, by Private Media to Tisbury in connection with the Nevada Action. The parties also entered into mutual general releases with the exception of certain individuals.

Consipio Holding BV. In order to (i) repay the Commerzbank Note, (ii) settle the New York Action and reimburse Consipio for its litigation fees and costs, (iii) repay a EUR 1,752,052 obligation owed by Fraserside Holdings Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Private Media, to Bocca BV, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Consipio, and, as ordered by the Nevada District Court, (iv) reimburse Consipio for all of its fees and costs it incurred in the Nevada Action, on December 28, 2012 Consipio and Private Media entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release. Because of its financial condition, in lieu of cash, Private Media issued to Consipio 800,000 shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock as payment in full for the amounts owed to Consipio. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of EUR 10.00 per share. Pursuant to the settlement agreement with Consipio, the parties also agreed to discontinue and withdraw the New York Action with prejudice, and entered into mutual general releases with the exception of certain individuals. See, “Item 13 Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.”

Appeal by the Company to the Nevada Supreme Court

As discussed above, on October 21, 2010, Consipio, Mr. Bunimovitz and the other plaintiffs in the Nevada Action obtained an Order from Judge Gonzalez requiring that the Company recognize the right of Consipio to vote the 5,600,000 collateral shares under the pledge agreement in favor of Consipio at the 2010 Annual Meeting. On December 3, 2010, the Company filed a Petition for Writ with the Nevada Supreme Court seeking an Order directing Judge Gonzalez to vacate her Order of October 21, 2010, on the basis that she did not have jurisdiction of this issue, and seeking a stay of the Order until the issue can be decided in the New York Action. The October 2010 Order required the Company to recognize the right of Consipio to vote the 5,600,000 collateral shares under the pledge agreement at the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

On November 2, 2012, the Nevada Supreme Court issued an order dismissing the appeal.

Consipio Holding BV vs. Private Media Group, Inc. and Slingsby Enterprises Limited, New York State Supreme Court, County of New York, Case No. 650462/10 (the “New York Action”)

On May 1, 2009, Consipio Holding BV filed a lawsuit against the Company in U.S. federal court asserting a claim for unspecified damages under a $4,000,000 promissory note issued in December 2001 by Private Media in favor of Commerzbank AG (the “Commerzbank Note”), which was guaranteed by Slingsby Enterprises Limited (“Slingsby”), an affiliate of Mr. Milton, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The guaranty was secured by a pledge of 1,650,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and Slingsby’s agreement to pledge an additional 3,950,000 shares upon the occurrence of an event of default. The lawsuit also included a claim against Slingsby to enforce its guaranty of the Note. On March 26, 2010, the U.S. federal court dismissed the lawsuit for lack of jurisdiction. However, in May 2010, Consipio re-filed the lawsuit (titled “Consipio Holding BV v. Private Media Group, Inc., Slingsby Enterprises Limited, and Berth H. Milton, Jr.”. New York State Supreme Court, County of New York, Case No. 650462/10) (the “New York Action”) against Private Media, Slingsby and Mr. Milton in the Supreme ~~Court of the State of New York (the “New York Court”) in order to enforce the payment of the Commerzbank Note and the accompanying guaranty issued by Slingsby. On August 30, 2011 the New~~ York Court issued an Order of Attachment pursuant to which New York City and state officials were ordered to execute the Order of Attachment by levy upon Private Media’s New York assets for the sum of $7,347,925.72.

In order to settle the New York Action and to settle all other claims between Consipio and the Company, including the Commerzbank Note, on December 28, 2012 the parties entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which, among other things, the Commerzbank Note was extinguished and the New York Action was dismissed. See, “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.” In accordance with the settlement agreement, on January 4, 2013 the New York Action was dismissed.

We are from time to time a defendant in suits for defamation and violation of rights of privacy, many of which allege substantial or unspecified damages, which we vigorously defend.

We are presently engaged in litigation, most of which is generally incidental to the normal conduct of our business and is immaterial in amount. We believe that our reserves are adequate and that no such action will have a material adverse impact on our financial condition. However, there can be no assurance that our ultimate liability will not exceed our reserves.

Except as disclosed above, neither Private Media Group, Inc. nor its subsidiaries is involved in any other litigation or arbitration proceedings which could have a material influence on our financial condition or results of operations.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read this section together with the consolidated financial statements and the notes and the other financial data in this Report. The matters that we discuss in this section, with the exception of historical information, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Potential risks and uncertainties that may cause results to differ materially from our expectations and projections, please refer to the Risk Factors section of this Form 10-K.

Overview

We acquire worldwide rights to adult media produced for us by independent producers and then process this content into products suitable for popular physical media formats such as print publications, DVDs, digital media platforms (such as internet websites, mobile telephony and transactional television), and broadcasting (which includes cable, satellite and IPTV). Our branded adult media is available at physical retail locations and through electronic retailers as well as on mobile devices, transaction television platforms and over the Internet. In addition, we provide adult entertainment films to thousands of major hotels around the world. To a lesser extent, in addition to branded adult media products, we also market and distribute branded leisure and novelty products oriented to the adult entertainment lifestyle and generate additional sales through the licensing of our Private trademark to third parties.

On January 20, 2009 we expanded our internet operations through the acquisition of Game Link LLC and its affiliates. Game Link is engaged in digital distribution of adult content over the Internet and in eCommerce development, primarily in the United States. On October 29, 2009 we continued the expansion of our digital media platform through the acquisition of Sureflix and its affiliates. These companies, based in Canada, were engaged in the business of digital distribution of premium gay adult content.

As described elsewhere in this Annual Report, after a change in management and as part of new management’s plan to reorganize and recapitalize this Company, we divested ourselves of the Game Link and Sureflix companies in 2012. Although the disposition of Game Link and Sureflix was consummated in 2012, for accounting purposes, the assets and liabilities of Game Link and Sureflix are listed as assets/liabilities “held for shareholder claims” in the December 31, 2011 consolidated balance sheets included in this Annual Report, and the operating results of Game Link and Sureflix are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 as “profit contributed by operations held for settlement of claims.” Accordingly, ~~the~~ net sales, cost of sales, selling, ~~general and~~ administrative expenses and certain other operating information of Game Link and Sureflix are included in the appropriate line items in the consolidated income statement of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. However, the net sales, cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, etc. of the Game Link and Sureflix companies are not included in the consolidated income statement line items for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Instead, the net results of the Game Link and Sureflix companies for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 are listed in income statement as “profit contributed by operations held for settlement of claims,” and the results of these two former subsidiaries are shown separately in the footnotes to the financial statements. Also, for accounting purposes, none of the assets or liabilities of the Game Link and Sureflix companies are included in the December 31, 2012 consolidated balance sheets, nor are the results of operations of the Game Link and Sureflix companies included in the consolidated statements of income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2012 as these entities were considered discontinued operations. The entities were transferred back to the original owners in 2012.

Commencing in July 2010 and continuing through 2011, former management was engaged in a number of lawsuits with its major shareholders and certain creditors. In addition, former management was involved in a proxy contest involving both the 2010 and 2011 annual meetings of shareholders (the 2011 annual meeting was eventually held in January 2012). The various lawsuits and shareholder proceedings negatively affected the Company’s operations and financial condition in both 2011 and ~~thereafter~~2012 and currently.

We operate in a highly competitive market that is subject to numerous new and on-going changes in business, economic and competitive conditions. Although we believe our brand and our products are well-established in the adult entertainment industry, we compete with numerous entities selling adult-oriented products via any type of distribution network, including the Internet. Over the past few years, the adult entertainment industry and the media formats in which adult content is disseminated have undergone significant change. The introduction of a large number of free content internet sites that allow users to access large libraries of content free of charge has created an even more challenging environment where both sales volume and margins have decreased substantially. In addition, the recent recession has shown that the adult industry is not immune to economic cycles.

We generate revenues primarily through:

•

internet e-commerce, subscriptions and licensing;

•

the broadcasting of movies through IPTV (Internet Protocol Television), cable, satellite and hotel television programming;

•

sales of DVDs and magazines; and

•

sales of adult mobile content (wireless).

Over time, we expect net sales from DVDs & magazines to continue to decline as a percentage of net sales in relation to total net sales from the Internet, broadcasting and wireless. We expect net sales from internet and direct-to-consumer digital sales to be the principal area of growth during the coming years.

We generally provide extended payment terms to our established distributors of between 90 and 180 days. Although our extended payment terms increase our exposure to accounts receivable write-offs, we believe our risk is minimized by our generally long-term relationships with our distributors.

Our primary expenses include:

•

web page development costs;

•

acquisition and licensing of content for our library of photographs and videos;

•

printing, processing and duplication costs; and

•

selling, general and administrative expenses.

Over the years, our cost of sales has fluctuated relative to net sales due to our use of new mediums for the dissemination of our products, such as the Internet, broadcasting and wireless and the different cost structure of those new mediums. We also incur significant web page development expenses annually in connection with the amortization of our library of photographs and movies and capitalized development costs. We amortize these assets on a straight-line basis for periods of between three and five years.

Critical Accounting Estimates

General

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we

accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of the library of photographs and videos and other long lived assets, allowances for doubtful debts, income taxes and contingencies and litigation. Accounts receivable and sales related to certain products are, in accordance with industry practice, subject to distributors’ right of return to unsold items. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Management periodically reviews such estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates as a result of unexpected changes in trends.

We believe the following critical accounting policies are significantly affected by judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Recognition of Revenue

The Company’s primary sources of revenue are the sale of content delivered via the Internet, broadcasting, DVD and magazines and mobile phones.

Revenues from the sale of subscriptions to the Company’s internet website are deferred and recognized rateably over the subscription period.

IPTV and satellite and cable broadcasting revenues are recognized upon delivery when the following conditions have been met (i) license period of the arrangement has begun and the customer can begin its exploitation, exhibition, or sale (ii) the arrangement fee is fixed or determinable and (iii) collection of the arrangement fee is reasonably assured. Such revenues may be generated by either a fixed license fee or as an agreed percentage of sales, based on sales reported each month by the Company’s IPTV, cable and satellite affiliates. The affiliates do not report actual monthly sales for each of their systems to the Company until approximately 60— - 90 days after the month of service ends. This practice requires management to make monthly revenue estimates based on historical experience for each affiliated system. Revenue is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual amount earned upon receipt. Adjustments made to adjust revenue from estimated to actual have historically been immaterial.

DVDs and magazines (physical products) are sold both to wholesalers, on firm sale basis, and via national newsstand distributors, with the right to return. Our physical products are generally produced in multiple languages and the principal market is in Europe. Revenues from the sale of physical products where distributors are not granted rights-of-return are recognized upon transfer of title, which generally occurs upon delivery. Revenues from the sale of physical products under consignment agreements with distributors are recognized based upon reported sales by the Company’s distributors. Revenues from the sale of physical products under agreements that grant distributors rights-of-return are recognized upon transfer of title, which generally occurs on delivery, net of an allowance for returned product. Distributors with the right to return are primarily national newsstand distributors. Most of our products are bi-monthly (six issues per year) and remain on sale at a newsstand for a period of two months. Normally, all unsolds are reported to us within a period of four to six months from delivery. There are normally two to four national newsstand distributors for all newspapers and periodicals operating in each country. The Company uses specific return percentages per title and distributor based on estimates and historical data. The percentages vary from 50-80%. Percentages are reviewed on an on-going basis. In view of the high retail price, the margin and the physical quality of the magazines and the fact that the content has a very long “shelf-life” since it is not particularly linked to time, trends, fashion or current events, the Company historically has collected the returns from newsstands, repackaged them, and them made them available for sale again. The Company operates scheduled re-distribution of returned magazines, via national newsstand distributors, together with DVDs as magazine/DVD packs as a way of increasing DVD distribution. Since the national newsstand distributors have the right to return, the DVD packs are returned in order to be sold via an additional scheduled re-distribution. Magazine returns not re-distributed as per above are sold on a firm sale basis to wholesalers as back issues at a lower price than new issues. The Company has historically sold all returned copies at an average price higher than, or equal, to cost.

Revenues from mobile content (wireless) sales are recognized based on sales reported each month by mobile operators via aggregators. The aggregators do not report actual monthly sales for each of their operators to the Company until approximately 60—90 days after the month of service ends. This practice requires management to make monthly revenue estimates based on historical experience for each affiliated system. Revenue is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual amount earned upon receipt. Adjustments made to adjust revenue from estimated to actual have historically been immaterial.

Accounts receivable

We are required to estimate the collectability of our trade receivables and notes receivable. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the ultimate realizable value of these receivables including the current credit-worthiness of each customer. Significant changes in required reserves have been recorded in the past and may occur in the future due to the current market environment.

Management reviews the allowance for doubtful accounts on at least a quarterly basis and adjusts the balance based on their estimate of the collectability of specific accounts as well as a reserve for a portion of other accounts which have been outstanding for more than 180 days. This estimate is based on historical losses and information about specific customers. After collection attempts have failed, the Company writes off the specific account.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired.

Other Intangible Assets represents the value attributable to: a) Customer base, which was acquired from two of the Company’s former distributors in the U.S. and in Canada in 2001 and 2003, respectively, for which the amortization expense is calculated on a straight-line basis over 10 years for each acquisition; b) Broadcasting asset, which was acquired in 2003 and which, at the time of acquisition, was deemed to have an indefinite life and therefore not subject to amortization; and c) Trade and Domain names which, at the time of acquisition, were deemed to have an indefinite life and therefore not subject to amortization (see, Note 8 of the financial statements included in this Annual Report).

Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are reviewed annually for impairment (or more frequently if indicators of impairment arise). See Note 8 of the financial statements. Further separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life are amortized over their expected useful lives.

During ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2011~~2012 the Company had impairment charges of EUR 112,~~562~~279,000 and EUR ~~13,327,000~~nil respectively, see Note 8 of the financial statements included in this Annual Report. ~~Subsequent~~During tothe ~~year~~second ~~end~~quarter of 2012, as described in Note 203 of the financial statements included in this Annual Report, the Company divested itself of Game Link and Sureflix for nil consideration and accordingly the remaining related goodwill was provided against in full as at December 31, 2011.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset. An impairment loss is then measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value. In ~~2010 the Company had impairment charges of EUR 548,000 relating to developed website technology and in~~ 2011 the Company had impairment charges of EUR 1,089,000 related to the divestment of Game Link and Sureflix, see Note 203 of the financial statements included in this Annual Report. Going forward additional impairment charges may occur, see Note 6 of the financial statements included in this Annual Report.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost principally determined on an average basis. Inventories principally consist of DVD’s and magazines held for sale or resale. The inventory is written down to the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those anticipated by management, write-downs may be required.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 compared to Fiscal Year Ended December 31, ~~2010~~ 2011

As described more fully elsewhere in this Annual Report, we have divested ourselves of the Game Link and Sureflix subsidiaries. For accounting purposes, the net sales, cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, etc. of Game Link and Sureflix are included in the consolidated net sales, cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, etc., line items in the income statement for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2010. However, for the fiscal year ended December 31,~~ 2011, the net sales, cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, etc. of Game Link and Sureflix are not listed in the income statement line items. Instead, the net results of Game Link and Sureflix for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 contained in income statement as “profit contributed by operations held for settlement of claims,” and the net sales, cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, etc. of these two former subsidiaries are shown separately in the footnotes to the financial statements. As of December 31, 2011 Game Link and Sureflix did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation. Because Asof athe ~~result~~foregoing accounting treatment of the disposition of the Game Link and Sureflix companies, certain of the results of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 cannot be directly compared to the results of the operations of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2010~~2012.

Net sales. Net sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 (“fiscal ~~2011~~2012”) decreased from net sales in the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 (“fiscal ~~2010~~2011”) by EUR 151,~~341~~237,000, or 6515.96%. ~~The~~Net ~~decrease~~sales decreased in ~~net~~all ~~sales is~~four ~~attributable~~principal tosources ~~both~~of revenues (~~a) the~~internet ~~exclusion~~e-commerce, ofbroadcasting, ~~EUR 11~~DVD/magazines,~~423,000~~ ofand ~~net~~mobile/wireless). ~~sales~~The ~~Game~~decrease ~~Link and Sureflix~~ in ~~2011, which~~ net sales ~~were~~is ~~excluded~~attributable ~~from~~to ~~net sales in fiscal 2011 because of the divestiture of those two subsidiaries, and (b)~~ an overall decrease in net sales in our core “Private” branded operations. Since our divestment of Game Link and Sureflix, we have continued to operate the historical “Private” brand. The decrease in our core “Private” operations in ~~2011~~2012 was due in part to (i) decisions made by prior management, (ii) the disruption caused by shareholder and creditor lawsuits and the disputed proxy contests in both 2010 and 2011 (the 2011 annual meeting of shareholders was eventually held in January 2012), and (iii) industry in the adult entertainment industry in general (such as the proliferation of free adult content provided over the Internet, which has reduced our internet sales, and the continuing decline of printed magazine sales). In addition, on August 25, 2011 the Nevada State Court appointed a receiver for the Company for the purposes of preserving Private Media’s assets and business. While the receiver was successful in preserving the Company’s assets and business, prior management’s resistance to the receiver’s involvement and supervision further impeded the Company’s operations and business during the last four months of 2011. Inand ~~2011~~the ~~(excluding~~first ~~Game~~quarter ~~Link and~~of ~~Sureflix)~~2012. In 2012, broadcasting represented 3639% of our net sales, internet represented 2628 % of net sales, DVDs and magazine sales represented 2520 % of net sales, and wireless represented 13 %. Prior management’s relations with certain of the Company’s primary creditors and customers negatively affected net sales ininto ~~2011~~2012.

32Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales was EUR 4,939,000 in fiscal 2012 compared to EUR 6,649,000 in fiscal 2011. Included in cost of sales is cost of operating our internet, broadcasting and wireless businesses, the cost of printing, processing and duplication, and the amortization of our library. The decrease in cost of sales in fiscal 2012 is primarily due to a reduction in amortization of the library which has resulted from a lack of investment in new production during 2010 and 2011. Lower sales of DVDs and magazines also resulted in a decrease in the associated cost of sales of these products. As a result, our cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased to 74% in fiscal 2012 from 84% in fiscal 2011.

Gross Profit. In the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, we realized a gross profit of EUR 1,280,000, or 16% of net sales compared to EUR 1,753,000, or 26% of net sales for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses for fiscal 2012 decreased to EUR 3,788,000 from EUR 7,362,000 in fiscal 2011. In 2011, Game Link and Sureflix had selling,

Stock and has restructured its EUR 1,000,000 institutional line of credit. These actions are expected to reduce the Company’s future interest payment obligations. However, since the end of fiscal 2011, the Company has also obtained loans in the amount of EUR 800,000 that bear interest at a rate of 9.9% per annum.

Income tax expense/benefit. We reported an income tax benefit of EUR 92,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 because of the utilization of a tax loss carryforward. In fiscal 2011, we recorded an income tax expense of EUR 4,454,000 to reflect the write-off of EUR 4,454,000 of the EUR 5,014,000 deferred income tax asset on the balance sheet as at December 31, 2010. Because much of the EUR 4,454,000 income tax benefit related to U.S. taxes, these benefits were dependent upon future income to be generated in the United States. Since we disposed of Game Link and Sureflix, we would no longer be generating sufficient taxable income in the United States that could benefit from the income tax asset. As a result, EUR 4,454,000 of our income tax asset was written off in fiscal 2011.

Net loss. Our net loss of EUR 29,324,000 for fiscal 2011 compared to the net loss of EUR 4,335,000 in fiscal 2010 reflects the large provisions and write offs taken in fiscal 2011 due to the divestment of Game Link and Sureflix, the settlement of certain shareholder and creditor claims and the deterioration in the Company’s operations in 2011 under prior management and the supervision of the court-appointed receiver.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, we have funded our liquidity and capital resources from cash generated by our operating activities and from borrowings from third parties. As of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, we had a working capital deficit of EUR 2,416,000, compared to a working capital deficit of EUR 11,438,000 as of December 31, 2011. As described elsewhere in this Annual Report, ~~since~~during ~~2011~~ 2012 we converted ~~have~~a ~~converted~~significant portion of the short-term debt and other accrued liabilities that were outstanding as of December 31, 2011 into shares of our newly issued Series B Preferred Stock.

Operating Activities

Despite having a net loss of EUR 292,~~324~~308,000, in fiscal ~~2011~~2012 we generated EUR 2697,~~715,~~000 of net cash from our operating activities. The principal non-cash adjustments that enabled us to have positive net cash flow from operations included ~~(1) impairment~~amortization of ~~goodwill~~web ~~and~~pages ~~other intangible assets~~ of EUR 12483,~~279,~~000, ~~(2) provision~~amortization ~~for~~of ~~shareholders’~~photographs and ~~creditor~~videos ~~claims~~ of EUR 52,~~830~~629,000, ~~(3) deferred~~and ~~income~~depreciation ~~taxes EUR 4,432,000, (4) provision for doubtful accounts~~ of EUR 1370,~~072,~~000,. ~~(5) impairment~~In ~~of long-lived assets of EUR 1~~addition,~~089,000,~~ increases ~~(6) amortization~~in oftrade ~~web~~accounts ~~pages~~receivable ~~of EUR 1,681,000, (7) amortization of photographs~~ and ~~videos~~inventories of EUR 3247,~~887,~~000, and ~~(8) depreciation~~ of EUR 1292,~~047,~~000. ~~These~~respectively ~~adjustments~~ were partially offset by increases in trade accounts payable (of EUR 1551,~~149,~~000) and ~~income~~accrued ~~taxes~~other ~~payable~~liabilities (of EUR ~~267~~629,000).

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the ~~fiscal~~ year ended December 31, ~~2011~~2012 was EUR 1,~~802~~026,000. The investing activities were investment in other assets of approximately EUR 1277,~~380,~~000, which is principally investment in web page development for our websites, and investment in library of photographs and videos of ~~only~~ EUR ~~422~~758,000, reflecting the significant decrease in the release of video titles in fiscal 2011 by prior management (investment in library of photographs and videos in 2010 and 2009 was EUR 1,834,000 and EUR 2,335,000, respectively).

Financing Activities

In each of the past three years we have experienced losses from operations. At December 31, ~~2011~~2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of EUR ~~179~~174,000 and a working capital deficit of EUR 112,~~438~~416,000. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm has concluded that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, and has modified its report in the form of an explanatory paragraph describing the events that have given rise to this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern is based on our ability to generate or obtain sufficient cash to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitable operations.

independent registered public accounting firm has concluded that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, and has modified its report in the form of an explanatory paragraph describing the events that have given rise to this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern is based on our ability to generate or obtain sufficient cash to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitable operations.

Since 2011, our management has changed, and new management has implemented a number of steps to improve our cash flow, reduce our working capital deficit, and to increase our liquidity. These steps include the following:

•

As part of a larger settlement with Consipio, in December 2012, we issued 800,000 shares of our newly created Series B Preferred Stock (at EUR 10.00 per share) to Consipio as payment in full for liabilities in excess of EUR 8,000,000. The liabilities that were repaid by means of this equity issuance included the entire outstanding balance of the Commerzbank Note, the legal fees and costs that the Nevada State Court ordered us to pay, the legal fees and costs we were required to pay Consipio because of the New York lawsuit, and amounts that we owed to third parties, which obligations were acquired by Consipio. The foregoing settlement both reduced the amount of our cash obligations and ended the litigation (which resulted in significant savings of future legal and other fees related to the litigation);

•

We settled $450,000 of attorneys’ fees and costs that the Nevada Court order us to pay to Tisbury in connection with the Nevada Action by issuing to Tisbury 3,000,000 unregistered shares of Common Stock, and a five-year, contingent warrant;

• We restructured a EUR 1,073,500 debt that one of our subsidiaries owed to a European bank under a defaulted loan that we had guaranteed. Under the new terms, the loan now bears interest at a rate of 3% per annum, with interest payments due annually at the end of each calendar year. The repayment dates for the unpaid principal balance have been extended, so that the outstanding principal amount must be repaid as follows: (i) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2016, (ii) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2017, and the balance, (iii) EUR 373,500 is due on January 1, 2018. As a result, our current cash payment obligations have been substantially reduced;

must be repaid as follows: (i) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2016, (ii) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2017, and the balance, (iii) EUR 373,500 is due on January 1, 2018. As a result, our current cash payment obligations have been substantially reduced;

•

We have settled and paid certain outstanding professional fees (principally legal fees) that were incurred by prior management at a discount;

•

In February 2013, in order to settle some of the liabilities prior management accrued (including the foregoing legal fees), we borrowed a total of EUR 800,000 from three unaffiliated foreign lenders. The loans bear interest at a rate of 9.9% per annum and are due and payable on December 31, 2014. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. Our obligations under the loans are secured by a lien on certain motion pictures in our film library. These loans enabled us to repay many of prior management’s debts at a discount, thereby reducing our trade accounts payable and other short-term obligations; and

• We have reduced our on-going selling, general and administrative expenses by reducing the amount of office space we use in our current headquarters and by closing our satellite office in Spain. In addition, we have substantially reduced the Company’s headcount from 45, not including 48 employees of Game Link and Sureflix, in 2011 to 38 employees as of ~~May~~June 2126, 2013. The foregoing reduction in headcount and the reduction in rental expenses are expected to save the Company an estimated EUR 741,000 annually.

As a result of the foregoing actions, and based on our internal forecasts of cash expected to be generated from our current operations, as of the date of this Annual Report, we currently expect that our available cash resources and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our presently anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. Nevertheless, we may raise additional funds to support more rapid growth, to repay more of the legacy liabilities accrued by prior management, or to respond to unanticipated capital requirements. No assurance can be given that we will be able to raise additional funding, or that such funding will be on terms favorable to our current shareholders.

We currently have no additional availability under our existing credit facilities. The existence of a going concern exception by our auditors may make it more difficult to obtain additional bank financing if and when required. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities, our shareholders’ percentage ownership will be reduced, they may experience additional dilution, or these newly issued equity securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of the current holders of our common stock. Additional financing may not be available when needed on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to develop or enhance our products and services, take advantage of future opportunities, maintain the scope of our operations or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements, which could harm our business.

36Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our system of internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Based on the above evaluation, our management has concluded that the system of internal controls over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to permanent rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2012 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisitions, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

As described in “Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures,” above, following the departure of prior management, many of this Company’s financial records for 2011 were either in disarray or missing. Based on the records that were available, our new executive officers assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that were in effect in 2011. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, and on those criteria, current management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2011 because, among other things, the prior Chief Executive Officer exerted undue influence over the Company’s financial personnel and because of a lack of segregation of duties. New management has implemented new internal controls over financial reporting.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In August 2011, the Nevada Court appointed a receiver to preserve the Company’s assets. The receiver implemented numerous changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Compensatory Arrangements for Charles Prast

On July 1, 2012, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Charles Prast pursuant to which Mr. Prast will continue to serve on a full-time basis as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. In addition, until the Company hires a full-time Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Prast has also agreed to serve as the interim Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Mr. Prast has been serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer since March 28, 2012. Under the Employment Agreement, the Company also agreed that it will nominate Mr. Prast to continue to serve as a director at each annual meeting of shareholders held in 2012, 2013 and 2014, or until such time as Mr. Prast shall cease to be employed by the Company.

Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Prast shall receive an annual salary of EUR 120,000. The Company will not provide Mr. Prast with health insurance. Instead, the Company is required to reimburse him for all of his health insurance payments, not to exceed EUR 7,200 per annum. In addition to his base salary, Mr. Prast will be entitled to an annual cash performance bonus equal to a percentage of the Company’s annual Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”). The bonus will be payable within six months after the end of each calendar year commencing with calendar 2012. EBITDA will be calculated by BDO Auditores, S.L., the Company’s independent registered public accountants, or any other independent accounting firm approved by both Mr. Prast and the Company, based on the audited financial statements of the Company for fiscal years ended December 31, provided that the Employment Agreement is still in effect on the applicable fiscal year-end date. If the Company’s annual EBITDA is below EUR 3,000,000, Mr. Prast’s bonus will be equal to 5% of the EBITDA. If the annual EBITDA is equal to or greater than EUR 3,000,000, Mr. Prast will also receive 7.5% of the amount over EUR 3,000,000.

the Company’s annual EBITDA is below EUR 3,000,000, Mr. Prast’s bonus will be equal to 5% of the EBITDA. If the annual EBITDA is equal to or greater than EUR 3,000,000, Mr. Prast will also receive 7.5% of the amount over EUR 3,000,000.

The term of Employment Agreement will continue until June 30, 2015, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the agreement. Absent a written notice from the Company or Mr. Prast to the contrary, and until either party elects to terminate the agreement, after June 30, 2015 the Employment Agreement will automatically extend in one month increments.

If the Company terminates Mr. Prast’s employment prior to June 30, 2015 for any reason other than for “Cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement”), or if Mr. Prast terminates his employment with the Company for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Employment Agreement”), the Company will pay Mr. Prast (a) his accrued salary and reimbursable expenses, which amount will be payable on the date of his termination, and (b) his monthly base salary in accordance with the Company’s normal procedures until June 30, 2015.

Employment Contracts, Termination of Employment Contracts and Change in Control Arrangements

We generally do not enter into long-term employment agreements with our executive officers.

Under the Employment Agreement that we entered into with Mr. Prast on July 1, 2012, we are obligated to pay him (a) his accrued salary and reimbursable expenses, and (b) his monthly base salary in accordance with our normal procedures until June 30, 2015 if we terminate Mr. Prast’s employment prior to June 30, 2015 for any reason other than for “Cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement”), or if he terminates his employment with us for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Employment Agreement”).

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Related Transactions

Transaction Between the Company and Mr. Milton, our Former President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Mr. Milton’s Affiliates.

Mr. Milton served as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer until December 15, 2011, at which time he was indefinitely suspended. Mr. Milton’s positions as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer were formally terminated on March 28, 2012. Mr. Milton was also the Company’s Chairman of the Board until the January 11, 2012 annual meeting of shareholders. Mr. Milton was not re-elected at the January 11, 2012 annual meeting. The following describes transactions or relationships between Mr. Milton, his affiliated entities, and the Company involving $120,000 or more that have occurred or were in effect on or after January 1, ~~2010~~2011.

Guaranty of Commerzbank Note In December 2001, Private Media borrowed $ 4.0 million from Commerzbank AG pursuant to a 7% Note Due 2002 (the “Commerzbank Note”) originally due on December 20, 2002. The Commerzbank 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 Commerzbank Note was guaranteed by Slingsby Enterprises Limited (“Slingsby”), an affiliate of Mr. Milton, who at that time was Private Media’s Chairman and President and a principal shareholder. The guaranty was secured by a pledge of 1,650,000 shares of Private Media common stock owned by Slingsby. In December 2002 Commerzbank AG agreed to extend the maturity date of the Commerzbank Note to March 20, 2003. In April 2003 the Commerzbank Note was acquired by Consipio Holding BV (“Consipio”) from Commerzbank AG, and Consipio and Private Media reached an agreement-in-principle with Consipio to extend the maturity of the Note until April 2008. However, Consipio and Private were unable to reach final agreement on other terms and conditions relating to the restructured Commerzbank Note. The Company continued to make regular payments on the Note, including principal and accrued interest, through February 2008. In April 2008 Consipio requested that Private Media pay the remaining balance of the Commerzbank Note. Consipio demanded payment of $3,194,000 as settlement in full of the Commerzbank Note, which amount was based on an interest rate of 9.9%. However, Private Media claimed that the interest rate on the Commerzbank Note had not been increased to 9.9% and was still 7% per annum. Therefore, Private Media claimed that a lesser amount was payable under the Commerzbank Note. Consipio also claimed that the amount due under the Commerzbank Note should be repaid in Euros and not U.S. dollars.

46In May 2010, Consipio filed a lawsuit against Private Media, Slingsby and Mr. Milton in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, titled “Consipio Holding BV v. Private Media Group, Inc., Slingsby Enterprises Limited, and Berth H. Milton, Jr.,”. New York State Supreme Court, County of New York, Case No. 650462/10 (the “New York Action”) to enforce the payment of the Commerzbank Note and the accompanying Slingsby guaranty. On August 30, 2011 the New York Court issued an Order of Attachment pursuant to which New York City and state officials were ordered to attach, by levy, Private Media’s New York assets for the sum of $7.35 million.

The Commerzbank Note was paid in full on December 28, 2012 as part of a global settlement between Private Media and Consipio Holding BV. The New York Action has been dismissed.

Unsecured Loans to Slingsby Enterprises Limited. Since at least 2002, we have extended a number of unsecured loans to Slingsby, an entity controlled by Mr. Milton (collectively, the “Slingsby Loans”). The Slingsby Loans bear interest at the rate of EURIBOR+1% per annum and have no maturity date. As of December 31, 2012, the total aggregate unpaid outstanding balance (principal and interest) on the Slingsby Loans was EUR 7.7 million (U.S. $9.9 million, based on the euro-dollar exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2012). To management’s knowledge, no payments of principal or interest have been made by Slingsby in respect of the Slingsby Loans since at least 2003. Because Slingsby has not made any payments on the Slingsby Loans, and because the Slingsby Loans are unsecured obligations, in May 2010 the Company determined that these loans should, for financial accounting purposes, be provided for in full (written off). Accordingly, the Slingsby Loans and are no longer reflected as an asset on the Company’s financial statements for the periods ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012.

the interest rate on the Commerzbank Note had not been increased to 9.9% and was still 7% per annum. Therefore, Private Media claimed that a lesser amount was payable under the Commerzbank Note. Consipio also claimed that the amount due under the Commerzbank Note should be repaid in Euros and not U.S. dollars.

In May 2010, Consipio filed a lawsuit against Private Media, Slingsby and Mr. Milton in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, titled “Consipio Holding BV v. Private Media Group, Inc., Slingsby Enterprises Limited, and Berth H. Milton, Jr.,” .New York State Supreme Court, County of New York, Case No. 650462/10 (the “New York Action”) to enforce the payment of the Commerzbank Note and the accompanying Slingsby guaranty. On August 30, 2011 the New York Court issued an Order of Attachment pursuant to which New York City and state officials were ordered to attach, by levy, Private Media’s New York assets for the sum of $7.35 million.

The Commerzbank Note was paid in full on December 28, 2012 as part of a global settlement between Private Media and Consipio Holding BV (see, “Related Transactions—-Consipio Holding BV” below). The New York Action has been dismissed.

Unsecured Loans to Slingsby Enterprises Limited. Since at least 2002, we have extended a number of unsecured loans to Slingsby, an entity controlled by Mr. Milton (collectively, the “Slingsby Loans”). The Slingsby Loans bear interest at the rate of EURIBOR+1% per annum and have no maturity date. As of December 31, 2011, the total aggregate unpaid outstanding balance (principal and interest) on the Slingsby Loans was EUR 7.6 million (U.S. $9.8 million, based on the euro-dollar exchange rate in effect on December 31, 2011). To management’s knowledge, no payments of principal or interest have been made by Slingsby in respect of the Slingsby Loans since at least 2003. Because Slingsby has not made any payments on the Slingsby Loans, and because the Slingsby Loans are unsecured obligations, in May 2010 the Company determined that these loans should, for financial accounting purposes, be provided for in full (written off). Accordingly, the Slingsby Loans and are no longer reflected as an asset on the Company’s financial statements for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2011.

In connection with the acquisition of Game Link LLC by the Company on January 20, 2009, in order to induce the sellers to consummate the acquisition, Slingsby entered into an agreement (the “Game Link Letter Agreement”) with the Company and the sellers with regard to the partial repayment of the Slingsby Loans. Under the Game Link Letter Agreement, in each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009, 2010, and 2011, Slingsby was required to repay not less than EUR one million, either in cash or in Private Media common stock valued at its fair market value as determined by the disinterested directors of Private Media, to be applied first to accrued interest and then to principal of the loan.

Slingsby did not make the EUR one million payment due under the Game Link Letter Agreement on December 31, 2009. In February 2010 the Company’s then-current Board of Directors decided not to enforce the December 31, 2009 EUR one million payment obligation under the Game Link Letter Agreement because of Mr. Milton’s involvement in the refinancing of a loan, but that the obligation to make the payments due in 2010 and 2011 would remain in place. The 2010 and 2011 payments under the Game Link Letter Agreement also have not been made.

The former directors of this Company both (i) authorized the Slingsby Loans and (ii) did not initiate any legal proceedings to collect the amounts owed to the Company under these loans. On August 25, 2011, the Nevada Court appointed Mr. Johnson as the receiver for the Company for the purposes of (i) preserving the Company’s assets and business, and (ii) setting the date for and conducting the 2011 annual meeting of shareholders. The 2011 annual meeting of shareholders was held on January 11, 2012. At that annual meeting, all of the former directors (other than Mr. Bunimovitz and the receiver and a member of the Board, Mr. Johnson) were replaced by the Company’s shareholders. The newly elected Board of Directors is evaluating its options with respect to the Slingsby Loans and the actions of the former directors.

Transaction Between the Company and Ilan Bunimovitz, our Former Chief Executive Officer and Director, and Mr. Bunimovitz’ Affiliates.

Mr. Bunimovitz was this Company’s Chief Executive Officer from April 2009 until July 19, 2010. He also was a director of this Company from April 2009 until May 22, 2012.

Acquisition of Game Link. In January 2009 the Company completed the acquisition of Game Link LLC and eLine LLC, companies engaged in the business of digital distribution of adult content over the Internet and online eCommerce development. Mr. Bunimovitz was the founder and chief operating officer of Game Link LLC and an indirect co-owner of Game Link LLC and eLine, LLC. In consideration of the acquisition of Mr. Bunimovitz’ interests in Game Link LLC and eLine LLC, he received 2,066,725 shares of the Company’s common stock and he was entitled to receive up to an additional 1,112,852 earnout shares of common stock if the combined EBITDA of the digital media operations of the Company and Game Link met specified targets in 2009, 2010 and 2011. The total value of the shares that Mr. Bunimovitz did receive, and the value of the shares that he would have received if all earn-out shares were issued assuming the EBITDA targets are met in 2009, 2010 and 2011, was EUR 7,418,271 (U.S. $9,634,118), based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on January 20, 2009 and the currency exchange rate in effect at that time. The Company did not issue any shares to which he is entitled to receive under the foregoing earnout provisions of the acquisition agreement between the Company and Game Link. See, “Item 3-Legal Proceedings.—Employment Arbitration and U.S. Department of Labor Claim.”

Lease of Facilities From Mr. Bunimovitz’ Affiliate. In connection with the acquisition by the Company of Game Link LLC and its affiliate, Game Link LLC entered into a lease agreement with 537 Stevenson Street L.L.C., a limited liability company which is 50% owned by Mr. Bunimovitz, providing for the lease by Game Link LLC of the land and building used by Game Link in San Francisco, California. The Company/Game Link paid a base rent of $13,620 per month, plus property taxes and maintenance expenses, during the term of the lease. As a result of the return of the Game Link group to the sellers of Game Link in May 2012 (see, “Settlement of Game Link Acquisition Dispute” below), Game Link is now responsible for this lease.

Employment Agreement. On January 20, 2009, the Company and Game Link LLC, our newly acquired subsidiary, entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Bunimovitz, the founder and chief operating officer of Game Link LLC and an indirect co-owner of Game Link LLC and eLine, LLC. The ~~Employment Agreement provided for Mr. Bunimovitz to serve as Executive Vice President of the consolidated internet and internet-related business~~ ~~conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries for a period of three years, subject to earlier termination by either party under specified circumstances. Under the terms of the~~ Employment Agreement the Company agreed to appoint Mr. Bunimovitz to its Board by March 1, 2009, and to nominate him to continue to serve as a director in 2009, 2010 and 2011 until such time as he ceased to be employed by the Company. The Employment Agreement provided for Mr. Bunimovitz to receive an annual base salary of $281,828, $271,070 and $302,648 in the first, second and third years of the employment term. He was also entitled to receive stock options on the same terms as stock options granted to Mr. Milton, the Company’s Chairman, President and principal shareholder, during the term of the Employment Agreement, in an amount proportionate to the relative stock ownership as between Mr. Bunimovitz and Mr. Milton. If the Company terminated Mr. Bunimovitz’ employment during the term of the Employment Agreement other than for “cause,” or if Mr. Bunimovitz terminated his employment with the Company for “good reason,” then Mr. Bunimovitz would be entitled to continue to receive his monthly base salary for the remaining period of the three year term.

In45 April 2009 Mr. Bunimovitz was also appointed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and his Employment Agreement was modified to provide for an annual base salary in each of the three years of his employment term of $295,000 per year. Mr. Bunimovitz’ Employment Agreement also provided for a monthly car allowance of $1,500 per month and health insurance benefits equivalent to benefits afforded to other executive officers of the Company. On July 19, 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz was terminated as Chief Executive Officer, purportedly for “cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement).

Mr. Bunimovitz’ Employment Agreement also provided for a monthly car allowance of $1,500 per month and health insurance benefits equivalent to benefits afforded to other executive officers of the Company. On July 19, 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz was terminated as Chief Executive Officer, purportedly for “cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement).

On July 23, 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz filed a Demand for Arbitration and related Statement of Claim against the Company with JAMS (the “JAMS Action”), a private arbitration service, pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of his Employment Agreement, contesting his termination as CEO. On November 30, 2011 the court-appointed receiver entered into that certain Settlement Agreement And Release (the “Bunimovitz Employment Settlement Agreement”) with Mr. Bunimovitz to settle the employment claims made by Mr. Bunimovitz against us. The Bunimovitz Employment Settlement Agreement did not release Mr. Bunimovitz’ claims regarding alleged fraud in the sale of ThinkForward, Inc. and GreenCine, Inc., his claims for breach of contract regarding the sale of those companies, or his claims for breach of contract in preventing him from selling shares of his Private Media stock. Under the Bunimovitz Employment Settlement Agreement, in exchange for a release of, and the dismissal of his employment claims, we agreed to pay Mr. Bunimovitz $550,000 in monthly installments of $30,000. On May 22, 2012, we amended the Bunimovitz Employment Settlement Agreement to change the payment schedule as follows: (1) $15,000 was paid on each of June 1, 2012, June 15, 2012, July 1, 2012, and August 1, 2012, (2) $15,000 is due and payable on September 1, 2012 and October 1, 2012, and (3) $30,000 is due and payable on the first day of each successive month thereafter (commencing November 1, 2012) until the balance due under the Bunimovitz Employment Settlement Agreement is paid in full.

Settlement of Game Link Acquisition Dispute. In October 2011, Mr. Bunimovitz amended his JAMS Action to allege, among other things: (i) fraud in the purchase of Game Link LLC (by means of the acquisition of ThinkForward and GreenCine), (ii) breach of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of January 20, 2009, pursuant to which the Company acquired ThinkForward, Inc. and GreenCine, Inc. (and Game Link LLC), and (iii) the wrongful prevention of the sale of shares of the common stock of the Company he acquired from us under the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization.

In May 2012, we entered into a settlement with Ilan Bunimovitz, Andrew Sullivan, Peter Marinac, two subsidiaries of the Company (ThinkForward, Inc. and GreenCine, Inc,), and the subsidiaries of those two subsidiaries (collectively, the “Game Link Group”). The Game Link Group was acquired by us on January 20, 2009. Pursuant to the Settlement and Release Agreement (the “2012 Settlement Agreement”), dated May 22, 2012, we agreed to return to Mr. Bunimovitz, Mr. Sullivan and Mr. Marinac ownership of the Game Link Group in exchange for, among other things, a settlement of the legal proceedings related to the acquisition and management of the Game Link Group. The 2012 Settlement Agreement contained the following provisions:

• The settlement of all claims between the Company and those parties for all matters, including: (i) Consipio Holding BV et. al. v. Private Media Group, Inc., filed in Nevada State Court, Clark County, Nevada (Case No. A-10-622802-B) (the “Nevada Action”); and (ii) the remaining claims under the JAMS Action relating to the termination of his employment, and the acquisition of ThinkForward, Inc. by the Company. On May 22, 2012, the Nevada Action was dismissed, and on May 23, 2012 the JAMS arbitration was fully dismissed.

Nevada (Case No. A-10-622802-B) (the “Nevada Action”); and (ii) the remaining claims under the JAMS Action relating to the termination of his employment, and the acquisition of ThinkForward, Inc. by the Company. On May 22, 2012, the Nevada Action was dismissed, and on May 23, 2012 the JAMS arbitration was fully dismissed.

•

The Company: (i) transferred to Messrs. Bunimovitz, Sullivan and Marinac all of the outstanding capital stock of its subsidiaries ThinkForward, Inc. and GreenCine, Inc.; and (ii) issued to Messrs. Bunimovitz, Sullivan and Marinac an aggregate of 1,772,875 shares of the common stock of the Company, representing the shares of common stock to which they would have been entitled under the earn-out provisions under the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization.

•

A mutual general release between the Company, on one hand, and Messrs. Bunimovitz, Sullivan and Marinac, ThinkForward, Inc. and GreenCine, Inc. and their subsidiaries, on the other hand. In addition, Mr. Bunimovitz resigned as a director of the Company on the date of the Settlement Agreement.

•

All intercompany allocations, receivables and payables between the Game Link Group and the Company were waived and cancelled; and each contract or agreement between any member or members of the Company and any member of the Game Link Group were terminated and cancelled without any compensation or consideration payable to any party, except that (i) the VOD Agreement between the Company and Game Link, and (ii) the agreement between the Company and Game Link to manage privatevod.com, which agreements remain in force and effect.

Transaction Between the Company and Eric Johnson, a Director, and Mr. Johnson’s Affiliate.

Employment Agreement. Effective December 17, 2009, we appointed Mr. Johnson as a director of the Company, a position he continues to hold. The appointment was made pursuant to an Employment Agreement we entered into with Mr. Johnson in connection with our acquisition of Sureflix on October 29, 2009. Sureflix is engaged in the business of digital distribution of premium gay adult content. Mr. Johnson was the chief executive officer and a minority owner of Sureflix prior to its acquisition by the Company on October 29, 2009.

The Employment Agreement provided for Mr. Johnson to serve as Chief Executive Officer of Sureflix for a period of three years, subject to earlier termination by either party under specified circumstances. Under the terms of the Employment Agreement we agreed to appoint Mr. Johnson to our Board of Directors and to nominate him to continue to serve as a director until such time as he ceases to be employed by the Company. Under the Employment Agreement Mr. Johnson was entitled to receive an annual base salary of CAD $235,000 (Canadian dollars) during each year of the three-year employment term.

Purchase of Sureflix. In consideration for the acquisition of Mr. Johnson’s interest in Sureflix, he received non-voting Class A Preference Shares of Entruphema Inc. convertible into 130,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (of which 110,000 were issued), and he was entitled to receive additional Class A Preference Shares convertible into up to 70,000 shares of the Company’s common stock if the combined EBITDA of the digital media operations of the Company and Sureflix met specified targets in the three months ended December 31, 2009, the two 12-month periods ending December 31, 2010 and 2011, and the nine-month period ending September 30, 2012. The Company did not issue shares to any of the sellers because it disagreed with the sellers as to whether, and to what extent, the EBITDA target has been met for the three months ended December 31, 2009, and the 12 months ended December 31, 2010. On June 27, 2012, Private Media agreed with the seller’s claims and issued 90,000 shares (representing the previously unissued shares of Common Stock) to Mr. Johnson.

The total value of the shares received and to be received by Mr. Johnson on October 29, 2009 in connection with the acquisition was $474,000, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on October 29, 2009. The total value of the 90,000 shares issued to Mr. Johnson in June 2012 as payment for meeting the EBITDA targets was $16,200, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on June 27th, 2012.

~~Settlement~~47 of Sureflix Claims/Transfer of Sureflix. On June 29, 2012, Private Media entered into and consummated a Settlement Agreement and Release with Mr. Johnson, the two other former shareholders of Sureflix. The Settlement Agreement was entered into to settle claims made by the three shareholders alleging Private Media made material misrepresentations to induce the shareholders to sell Sureflix to Private Media, that Private Media materially breached the 2009 acquisition agreement, and other claims relating to the operation and management of Sureflix following the acquisition. As previously disclosed, the Company’s Board of Directors and new management have been working to (i) improve the Company’s overall operations, (ii) strengthen the Company’s financial condition, and (iii) restructure its business, products, and geographic focus to conform to the Company’s core business. These efforts included re-evaluating both the Company’s prior expansion of its operations outside of its historical European sphere of operations, and the expansion of its product offerings. The Company’s Board of Directors has determined that the disposition of Sureflix is consistent with these goals.

Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company transferred back to its former shareholders all of the outstanding capital stock of Entruphema Inc. In addition, the Settlement Agreement includes a mutual general release between the Company, on one hand, and Messrs. Schannen, Lozier and Johnson, Entruphema and Sureflix, on the other hand. Lastly, all intercompany allocations, receivables and payables between Entruphema and Sureflix, on one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, were netted, and the Company is obligated to re-pay Entruphema/Sureflix the net amount ($224,969) by the end of 2012 or the date the Company receives net proceeds from the sale of equity securities of at least $1,000,000. The foregoing amount has not been fully repaid, and, as of May 21, 2013 we owe Sureflix approximately $74,000.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Private Media Group, Inc.

1. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Private Media Group, Inc. as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011 and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, shareholders´’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the ~~periods~~period ended ~~as of~~ December 31, ~~2011 and 2010~~2012. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the schedule listed in the accompanying index. These consolidated financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Group’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We did not audit the consolidated financial statements of ThinkForward, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, which consolidated statements reflect as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 total assets constituting 1.438.420 euro and 2.345.021 euro respectively, total revenues constituting 9.088.180 euro and 9.260.878 euro respectively, net result, for the years ended as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 constituting 1.187.256 euro and 117,125 euro of losses, for the years then ended. Those consolidated financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to data included for ThinkForward, Inc., is based solely on the report of those auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and schedule are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and schedule, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

3. In our opinion, ~~based on our audits and~~ the ~~report of other auditors, the~~ consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Private Media Group, Inc. as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and ~~2010~~2011, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, ~~2011 and 2010~~2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

4. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Group will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, over the past years, the Group has suffered recurring losses from operations, and, at December 31, ~~2011~~2012 have a working capital deficit and a negative ~~net~~ equity position. ~~Moreover, as of December 31, 2012, the Group has not yet reestablished profitable operations.~~ These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

5.	Also, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.	The company and basis of presentation

Private Media Group, Inc. (“the Company” or “our”) is a holding company with subsidiaries engaged in the acquisition, refinement and distribution of video and photo rights for adult feature magazines and movies through distribution channels including hard copy, broadcast, Internet Protocol Television, the Internet, and mobile phones.

Solely for the convenience of the reader, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012 and for the twelve months then ended have been translated into United States dollars (“USD”) at the rate of USD 10.2976 per EUR 1.00, the Exchange Rate of the European Central Bank on December 31, ~~2011~~2012. The translations should not be construed as a representation that the amounts shown could have been, or could be, converted into US dollars at that or any other rate.

In each of the past three years we have experienced losses from operations. At December 31, ~~2011~~2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of EUR ~~179~~174,000 and a working capital deficit of EUR 112,~~438~~416,000. As a result of the Company’s operating losses our independent registered public accounting firm has concluded that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, and have modified their report in the form of an explanatory paragraph describing the events that have given rise to this uncertainty. Our ability to continue as a going concern is based on our ability to generate or obtain sufficient cash to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitable operations. We currently expect future growth, reductions in costs and expenses and a return to profitability provided we are successful in achieving the following objectives:

•

continuing to evolve our internet platforms, including: our newly built signature property and membership platform private.com;

•

the successful marketing of our affiliate programs for all our properties to compete aggressively for, and attract, affiliate traffic;

•

continuing the rollout of our content on cable and IPTV video-on-demand platforms;

•

continued development of distribution channels to enable our library to be accessible on new distribution platforms including, for example, internet-enabled televisions;

•

completing the divestment of businesses acquired in 2009;

•

consolidating, streamlining and restructuring our operations into an efficient business; and

•

outsourcing of non-cost-effective parts of our operations.

If we are not successful in implementing the above objectives, or if we otherwise do not successfully respond to changing conditions in the adult entertainment industry, we may continue to incur significant losses. There can be no assurance that we will be able to operate profitably in the future.

~~Subsequent~~During ~~to year end~~2012, the Company entered into and consummated settlement agreements and releases with the former shareholders of two of its operating units: (i) Game Link LLC and its affiliate, eLine, LLC (collectively “Game Link”); and (ii) Entruphema Inc. and its affiliate Sureflix Digital Distribution Inc., (collectively “Sureflix”) whereby the Company transferred back to the former shareholders all of the outstanding capital stock of the respective companies, see Note 203. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the assets and liabilities of Game Link and Sureflix are classified as assets and liabilities held for shareholder claims and the operating results for the year ended December 31, 2011 are disclosed separately on the consolidated statements of income as operations held for settlement of claims.

2.	Summary of significant accounting policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency

Management has determined that the functional currency for each of the Company’s foreign operations is its applicable local currency. When translating functional currency financial statements into euro, year-end exchange rates are applied to the balance sheet accounts, while average annual rates are applied to income statement accounts. Translation gains and losses are recorded in other comprehensive income as a component of shareholders’ equity.

F - 7

PRIVATE MEDIA GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Transactions involving foreign currencies are translated into euro or functional currencies using exchange rates in effect at the time of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at period end exchange rates and the resulting gain or loss is charged to income in the period.

For the years ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2011~~2012 the aggregate exchange gain or loss included in determining net income amounted to ~~EUR~~a ~~912~~gain of EUR 254 thousand and a loss of EUR ~~254~~194 thousand respectively.

Recognition of Revenue

The Company’s primary sources of revenue are the sale of content delivered via hard copy, broadcast, Internet Protocol Television (“IPTV”), the Internet, and mobile phones.

Revenues from the sale of subscriptions to the Company’s internet website are deferred and recognized rateably over the subscription period.

Internet video-on-demand offerings are sold directly via the Company’s websites and are paid for almost exclusively by credit card. The Company recognizes revenue from video-on-demand when the service is rendered and collectability is reasonably assured, specifically, when the customer’s credit card is charged, which is, in most cases, simultaneous with delivery of the on-demand video. Credit card payments accelerate cash flow and reduce the Company’s collection risk, subject to the merchant bank’s right to hold back cash pending settlement of the transactions. ~~The Company also offers a prepaid video-on-demand service in which a customer purchases a number of~~ minutes of on-demand video at a set rate per minute based on the number of minutes purchased. The rate per minute decreases as the number of prepaid minutes increases. The Company records revenue from pre-pay customers as deferred revenue prior to commencement of services and recognizes revenue as the services are rendered. Prepaid minutes purchased under this program do not expire.

~~The Company~~IPTV, ~~also~~satellite ~~offers~~and acable ~~customer~~broadcasting ~~loyalty~~revenues ~~program~~are ~~under~~recognized ~~which~~upon ~~each~~delivery ~~member’s~~when ~~purchase~~the following conditions have been met (i) the license period of ~~video~~the ~~on-demand,~~arrangement ~~DVDs,~~has ~~movie~~begun ~~downloads~~and the customer can begin its exploitation, ~~books~~exhibition, ~~novelties~~or sale (ii) the arrangement fee is fixed or ~~other~~determinable ~~items~~and ~~earns~~(iii) collection of the ~~member~~arrangement ~~one~~fee ~~point~~is ~~for~~reasonably ~~each~~assured. ~~dollar~~Such ~~spent.~~revenues ~~All~~may ofbe generated by either a ~~customer’s~~fixed ~~points expire~~license ~~after~~fee ~~180~~or ~~days~~as an agreed percentage of nosales, ~~purchase~~based ~~activity.~~on ~~Because~~sales ~~the~~reported ~~value~~each ofmonth by the ~~award~~Company’s ~~points~~IPTV, iscable and satellite affiliates.

~~IPTV~~Hard copy content (DVDs and magazines) are sold both to wholesalers, ~~satellite~~on firm sale basis, and ~~cable~~via ~~broadcasting~~national ~~revenues~~newsstand distributors, with the right to return.

The Company has historically re-sold all returned copies at an average price ~~the~~higher ~~arrangement~~than ~~fee~~or isequal to cost.

Revenues from mobile content (wireless) sales are recognized based on sales reported each month by mobile operators via aggregators. The aggregators do not report actual monthly sales for each of their operators to the Company until several months after the month-of-service ends. This practice requires management to make monthly revenue estimates based on historical experience for each affiliated system. Revenue is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual amount earned upon receipt. Historically, adjustments made to adjust revenue from estimated to actual have been immaterial.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

reasonably assured. Such revenues may be generated by either a fixed license fee or as an agreed percentage of sales, based on sales reported each month by the Company’s IPTV, cable and satellite affiliates. The affiliates do not report actual monthly sales for each of their systems to the Company until approximately 60 - 90 days after the month of service ends. This practice requires management to make monthly revenue estimates based on historical experience for each affiliated system. Revenue is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual amount earned upon receipt. Historically, adjustments made to adjust revenue from estimated to actual have been immaterial.

Hard copy content (DVDs and magazines) are sold both to wholesalers, on firm sale basis, and via national newsstand distributors, with the right to return. Our physical products are generally multi-lingual and the principal market is in Europe. Revenues from the sale of DVDs and magazines where distributors are not granted rights-of-return are recognized upon transfer of title, which generally occurs upon delivery. Revenues from the sale of DVDs and magazines under consignment agreements with distributors are recognized based upon reported sales by the Company’s distributors. Revenues from the sale of DVDs and magazines under agreements that grant distributors rights-of-return are recognized upon transfer of title, which generally occurs on delivery, net of an allowance for returned product. Distributors with the right to return are primarily national newsstand distributors. The Company uses specific return percentages per title and distributor based on estimates and historical data. The percentages vary from 50-80%. Percentages are reviewed on an on-going basis. The Company has historically re-sold all returned copies at an average price higher than or equal to cost.

Revenues from mobile content (wireless) sales are recognized based on sales reported each month by mobile operators via aggregators. The aggregators do not report actual monthly sales for each of their operators to the Company until approximately 60 - 90 days after the month of service ends. This practice requires management to make monthly revenue estimates based on historical experience for each affiliated system. Revenue is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual amount earned upon receipt. Historically, adjustments made to adjust revenue from estimated to actual have been immaterial.

Use of Estimates

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost principally determined on an average basis. Inventories principally consist of DVDs and magazines held for sale or resale.

Library of Photographs and Videos

The items in the library comprise our content used for distribution on various formats. These are principally DVDs, broadcast, IPTV, the Internet, mobile phones and for the production of magazines. All of our content is sold or licensed repeatedly unlike inventory items which are sold only once. Furthermore the content is not only sold on one particular release, or issue, but is also re-edited and included for sale on compilations such as “Best of…” titles and publications.

F - 9

PRIVATE MEDIA GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The film library includes: a) films, which represent the content, i.e., the edited movie including soundtrack, b) translations, sound dubbing, and sub-titles, which are required to customize each movie in terms of language for all territories, and c) Digital Manipulation for DVD Masters, which is required to digitize the movie and create menus and language options in order to produce a master from which DVDs can be duplicated.

The photo library comprises purchased photographic material used for print and internet publications. Our photographic material is used initially in one issue of our principal magazine title and may be used later in special editions. The print publications are typically printed once and thereafter they are sold over a period of several years. Internet publications are sold via membership fees charged at the Company’s websites. Photos are used for online marketing, such as photo-galleries to attract customers to our online properties, and are also licensed to other internet and print publishers.

The library of photographs and videos, including rights for photographs and videos as well as translation and dubbing of video material, is reflected at the lower of amortized cost or net realizable value. The cost is amortized on a straight-line basis over 3-5 years representing the estimated useful life of the asset, except for photos which are amortized on a sliding-scale basis over three years. Estimated future revenues are periodically reviewed and, revisions may be made to amortization rates or write-downs made to the asset’s net realizable value as a result of significant changes in future revenue estimates. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs to complete and exploit in a manner consistent with realization of that income.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost and are generally depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful lives range from 3-5 years. Website development costs involving the provision of additional functions or features to the website, including graphics and related software, are included in property, plant and equipment and are amortized on a straight-line basis over 3-5 years. In the years ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2011~~2012 the Company has capitalized EUR ~~1,917~~368 thousand and EUR ~~368~~230 thousand respectively of costs related to the development of its website including graphics and related software.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired.

Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets are reviewed annually for impairment (or more frequently if indicators of impairment arise), see Note 8. Further separable intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life are amortized over their expected useful lives.

~~During~~F ~~2010~~- ~~and 2011 the Company had impairment charges of EUR 1,562 thousand and EUR 12,352 thousand respectively, see Note 8. Subsequent to~~9 year end, as described in Note 20, the Company divested itself of Game Link and Sureflix for nil consideration and accordingly the remaining related goodwill was provided against in full as at December 31, 2011.

F - 10

PRIVATE MEDIA GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

During 2011 and 2012 the Company had impairment charges of EUR 13,368 thousand and EUR nil respectively, see Note 8. As described in Note 3, the Company divested itself of Game Link and Sureflix for nil consideration and accordingly the remaining related goodwill was provided against in full as at December 31, 2011.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset. An impairment loss is then measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value. In ~~2010 the Company had impairment charges of EUR 548 thousand relating to developed website technology and in~~ 2011 the Company had impairment charges of EUR 1,089 thousand related to the divestment of Game Link and Sureflix, see Note 203. There were no impairment charges during 2012. Going forward additional impairment charges may occur, see Note 6.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are charged to income as incurred. The total advertising costs were EUR ~~615~~161 thousand and EUR ~~161~~80 thousand for the years ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2011~~2012, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs related to the Company’s products are recognized in cost of sales.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for certain income and expense items differently for financial reporting purposes than for tax purposes. Provisions for deferred taxes are made in recognition of such temporary differences. The Company assesses the recoverability of deferred tax assets and records a valuation allowance when it believes it is not more likely than not that they will be recovered.

Cash Equivalents

Highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of acquisition are considered to be cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company does not require collateral on these financial instruments.

Cash and cash equivalents are maintained principally with major European financial institutions that have high credit standings and the Company’s policy is to limit exposure to any one institution. Management attempts to limit credit risk on trade receivables mainly through establishment and monitoring of credit controls.

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding, including exchangeable shares. As of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, there were no exchangeable shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options and unvested stock grants. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities.

securities include outstanding stock options and unvested stock grants. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk, see Note 19.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based payment transactions in which the Company receives employee or other services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. Stock-based compensation cost for stock awards is measured based on the closing fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation cost for stock options is estimated at the grant date based on each option’s fair-value as calculated by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation cost as expense rateably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. In addition, an entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new guidance to have an impact on our consolidated financial reporting.

3.	Acquisitions and Divestments

Game Link Acquisition

On January 20, 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the business of Game Link. The Game Link companies are engaged in the business of digital distribution of adult content over the Internet and online eCommerce development.

~~Subsequent to year end, on May 23, 2012, the Company entered into and consummated a settlement agreement and release with the former shareholders of~~ Game Link ~~whereby the Company transferred back to the former shareholders all of the outstanding capital stock of Game Link, see Note 20.~~

On May 23, 2012, the Company consummated a settlement with the former shareholders of Game Link, which includes Mr. Bunimovitz. Game Link was acquired by the Company on January 20, 2009, and is engaged in the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

business of digital distribution of adult content over the Internet. Pursuant to that certain Settlement and Release Agreement (the “Game Link Settlement Agreement”), dated May 23, 2012, the Company agreed to dispose of California-based Game Link in connection with the settlement of legal proceedings related to the acquisition and management of Game Link.

The Game Link Settlement Agreement settles all claims between the Company and those parties for all matters, including: (i) Consipio Holding BV et. al. v. Private Media Group, Inc., filed in Nevada State Court, Clark County, Nevada (the “Nevada Action”); and (ii) the remaining claims under the JAMS arbitration proceeding brought by Mr. Bunimovitz in 2010 relating to the termination of his employment and the acquisition of Game Link by the Company. On May 22, 2012, the Nevada Action was dismissed, and on May 23, 2012 the JAMS arbitration was fully dismissed.

Pursuant to the Game Link Settlement Agreement, the Company transferred all of the outstanding capital stock of Game Link to the former shareholders and issued an aggregate of 1,772,875 shares of the common stock of the Company, representing the shares of common stock to which they would have been entitled under the earn-out provisions under the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of January 20, 2009.

The Game Link Settlement Agreement includes a mutual general release between the Company, Game Link and its former shareholders.

In addition, Mr. Bunimovitz resigned as a director of the Company on the date of the Game Link Settlement Agreement.

As part of the transfers under the Game Link Settlement Agreement described above, all intercompany allocations, receivables and payables between Game Link and the Company were waived and cancelled; and each contract or agreement between any member or members of the Company and any member of Game Link were terminated and cancelled without any compensation or consideration payable to any party, except that (i) the VOD Agreement between the Company and Game Link, and (ii) the agreement between the Company and Game Link to manage privatevod.com, which agreements will remain in force and effect and which were entered into at arm’s-length terms.

Concurrently with the Game Link Settlement Agreement, the Company and Mr. Bunimovitz entered into an amendment to the Settlement Agreement and Release dated November 30, 2011 (the “November Agreement”). The November Agreement settled certain of the claims of Mr. Bunimovitz related to termination of employment with the Company under the JAMS Arbitration initiated by Mr. Bunimovitz against the Company. Under the November Agreement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Bunimovitz an amount equal to the unpaid amounts owed to him under his employment agreement, which amount was to be paid in monthly installments. The amendment to the November Agreement reduced the amount of the monthly payments required to be made to Mr. Bunimovitz, thereby extending the period during which the payments will made. All other terms remained the same. Management expects the balance to be paid by the end of 2013.

Banks

As outlined below, during 2011 the Company replaced its existing short-term bank borrowings with long-term borrowings. Prior to this refinancing, the Company’s European subsidiaries had bank line of credit agreements under which the subsidiaries could borrow up to EUR 450 thousand at variable interest rates of EURIBOR+2.0% to 3.5% and a fixed interest rate of 6.75%. As of December 31, ~~2010~~2011, the credit lines were fully utilized.

During ~~2010 and~~ 2011 the Company refinanced certain borrowings with ~~institutional~~ institutional lenders. This resulted in the following borrowings:

a)	a five-year loan of EUR 460 thousand at an interest rate of 6.77%, with interest-only payments for the first year (July 2011 to June 2012) and equal monthly payments thereafter for the remaining four years;

b)	a seven-year loan of EUR 112.5 thousand at an interest rate of 7.21%, repayable in monthly installments starting July 2011;

c)	a three-year loan of EUR 200 thousand at an interest rate of 5.15%, with interest-only payments for the first year (June 2010 to May 2011) and equal monthly payments thereafter for the remaining two years;

d)	a three-year loan of EUR 150 thousand at an interest rate of 9.00%, repayable in monthly installments starting November 2010;

e)	a three-year loan of EUR 95 thousand at an interest rate of 7.75%, repayable in monthly installments starting April 2011; and

f)	a three-year loan of EUR 150 thousand at an interest rate of 8.79%, with interest-only payments for the first year (January 2012 to December 2012) and equal monthly payments thereafter for the remaining two years.

As of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, the remaining amount outstanding under these loans was EUR ~~1,032~~793 thousand.

On December 11, 2009 a credit line of EUR 1.0 million was re-financed by an institutional lender at an interest rate of EURIBOR + 1.2% (except in the event of default where the interest rate increases to 7.45%) and with interest payable annually starting December 11, 2010. The loan is repayable in equal annual installments over a five-year period starting December 11, 2011.

~~On December 11, 2009 a credit line of EUR 1.0 million was re-financed by an institutional~~ lender at an interest rate of EURIBOR + 1.2% (except in the event of default where the interest rate increases to 7.45%). Interest is payable annually starting December 11, 2010. The loan is repayable in equal annual installments over a five-year period starting December 11, 2011. The loan is guaranteed by an affiliate of the Company’s former Chairman and shareholder and the guaranty is secured by 666,667 shares of Private Media Group, Inc., Common Stock which are beneficially owned by the Company’s former Chairman. The Company did not make the required payment on December 11, 2011. Subsequent to year end, in December 2012, the Company’s new management renegotiated and restructured the loan. Under the new terms, the loan will bear interest at a rate of 3% per annum with interest payments due annually at the end of each calendar year commencing in 2013. The repayment dates for the unpaid principal balance, including accrued and unpaid interest in the amount of EUR 73,500, have been extended so that the outstanding principal amount must be repaid as follows: (i) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2016, (ii) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2017, and (iii) the balance of EUR 373,500 is due on January 1, 2018. As of December 31, 2012, the remaining amount outstanding under this loan is EUR 1,073,500.

On June 5, 2012 the Company negotiated a EUR 200,000 loan with a private investor that is due and payable June 5, 2013 with interest payable quarterly at a rate of 12% per annum.

Other debt

In 2001, the Company borrowed $4 million from Commerzbank AG (the “Commerzbank Note”). The Company’s obligations were secured by a guaranty and by a pledge of 5,600,000 shares of the Company’s stock held by Slingsby Enterprises Limited, an affiliate of Berth H. Milton, Jr. (“Mr. Milton”) who, at the time, was the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and principal shareholder. The Commerzbank Note was subsequently acquired by Consipio Holding BV (“Consipio”). In 2008 Consipio declared the promissory note to be in default and demanded that it be repaid. On May 1, 2009, Consipio filed a lawsuit against the Company, Slingsby, and Mr. Milton in U.S. federal court to enforce the payment of the Commerzbank Note. That lawsuit was dismissed on technical grounds and re-filed in May 2010 in New York State Court (titled “Consipio Holding BV v. Private Media Group, Inc., Slingsby Enterprises Limited, and Berth H. Milton, Jr.” New York State Supreme Court, County of New York, Case No. 650462/10) (the “New York Action”). On August 30, 2011 the New York Court issued an Order of Attachment pursuant to which New York City and state officials were ordered to attach, by levy, the Company’s New York assets for the sum of $7.35 million.

On August 11, 2010, Consipio, a creditor of the Company by virtue of its ownership of the Commerzbank Note, Tisbury Services Inc., (“Tisbury”) the holder of over 13% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, and other parties including Ilan Bunimovitz (“Mr. Bunimovitz”), jointly filed a lawsuit against the Company in Nevada District Court, Clark County, Nevada, alleging mismanagement of the Company’s business by the Company’s three independent directors and Mr. Milton (Consipio Holding BV et. al. v. Private Media Group, Inc., herein referred to as the “Nevada Action”). The Nevada Action also asked the Nevada District Court to enforce and monitor a stockholders’ election of the Company’s directors. An annual meeting of stockholders was held in January 2012 at which neither Mr. Milton nor any of the other directors named in the Nevada Action were re-elected. Accordingly, on May 22, 2012, the Nevada District Court (i) dismissed the Nevada Action, and (ii) ordered the Company to reimburse both Consipio and Tisbury for their attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in that lawsuit in an amount to be agreed between the plaintiffs and the Company, and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

On December 28, 2012, in order to repay the entire outstanding balance of the Commerzbank Note, the legal fees and costs that the Nevada State Court ordered us to pay, the legal fees and costs we were required to pay Consipio because of the New York lawsuit, and amounts that we owed to third parties, which obligations were acquired by Consipio, Consipio and the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the “Consipio Settlement Agreement”). Because of its financial condition, in lieu of cash, the Company offered to issue to Consipio shares of a new series of preferred stock, designated as the “6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), as payment in full for the amounts owed to Consipio. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of EUR 10.00 per share. Accordingly, on December 28, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock with the office of the Secretary of State of Nevada to authorize the new series of preferred stock, and thereafter issued 800,000 shares of the newly authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock to Consipio. Pursuant to the Consipio Settlement Agreement, the parties also (i) agreed to discontinue and withdraw the New York Action with prejudice, and (ii) entered into mutual general releases, with the exception of certain individuals.

Cyprus, the United States, Spain and Sweden are the jurisdictions in which nearly all of the NOLs have been generated. NOLs in Cyprus post-2000 may be carried forward indefinitely. The NOLs in the United States may be carried back 2 years and carried forward for 20 years, while the NOLs in Spain may be carried forward for 15 18 years and the NOLs in Sweden can be carried forward indefinitely.

No provision has been made for United States federal and state taxes or foreign taxes that may result from future remittances of undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries because it is expected that all such earnings will be permanently reinvested in these foreign operations.

The Company’s subsidiaries file income tax returns in numerous tax jurisdictions, including the United States, several U.S. states and several non-U.S. jurisdictions, primarily in Europe. The statute of limitations varies by the various jurisdictions in which we operate. Because of the number of jurisdictions in which we file tax returns, in any given year the statute of limitations in certain jurisdictions may lapse without examination within the 12-month period from the balance sheet date. Other than the recurring effect of changes in unrecognized tax benefits due to the lapse of the statute of limitations, none of which are expected to be individually significant, management believe there are no other reasonably possible changes that will significantly impact the amount of tax benefits recognized in the Company’s financial statements within the 12-month period from the balance sheet date. The Company has substantially concluded all US Federal and State income tax matters for years up to and including ~~2005~~2008 and ~~2003~~2007 respectively, and all foreign income tax matters for years up to 2004.

The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in interest and other expenses respectively. Interest and penalties amounting to EUR 367 ~~thousand~~,000 were accrued as of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, of which EUR ~~24 thousand~~nilwas ~~was~~ recognized as interest expense during the year then ended.

~~In December 1999 the Company received final notification from the Swedish Tax Authority assessing its subsidiary in Cyprus for the tax years 1995-1998 for a total amount of SEK 42,000,000 (approx~~13. ~~EUR 4.5 million)~~ ~~plus~~Related ~~fines~~party amounting to SEK 16,800,000 (approximately EUR 1.8 million) plus interest. The Swedish Tax Authority has taken the position that the subsidiary carried on business in Sweden from a permanent establishment during the period in question and should therefore be taxed on the income attributable to the permanent establishment. The Company is of the view that no permanent establishment is at hand in Sweden. However, the Administrative Court of Appeal has finally decided that a permanent establishment is at hand. In February 2009, the County Administrative Court reduced the assessment for the tax years 1995-1998 to transactions

Guaranty of Commerzbank Note by Affiliate of Mr. Milton

In 2001, the group’s holding company, Private Media Group, Inc., borrowed $4 million from Commerzbank AG (the “Commerzbank Note”). The Company’s obligations were secured by a guaranty and by a pledge of 5,600,000 shares of the Company’s stock held by Slingsby Enterprises Limited, an affiliate of Mr. Milton who, at the time, was the Company’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and principal shareholder. The Commerzbank Note was assigned to Consipio Holding BV (“Consipio”). In 2008 Consipio declared the promissory note to be in default and demanded that it be repaid. On May 1, 2009, Consipio filed a lawsuit against the Company, Slingsby, and Mr. Milton in U.S. federal court to enforce the payment of the Commerzbank Note. That lawsuit was dismissed on technical grounds and re-filed in May 2010 in New York State Court (titled “Consipio Holding BV v. Private Media Group, Inc., Slingsby Enterprises Limited, and Berth H.

Guaranty of Commerzbank Note by Affiliate of Mr. Milton

On August 11, 2010, Consipio, a creditor of the Company by virtue of its ownership of the Commerzbank Note, Tisbury Services Inc., (“Tisbury”) the holder of over 13% of the Company’s outstanding common stock, and other parties including Mr. Bunimovitz, jointly filed a lawsuit against the Company’s in Nevada District Court, Clark County, Nevada, alleging mismanagement of the company’s business by the Company’s three independent directors and Mr. Milton (Consipio Holding BV et. al. v. Private Media Group, Inc., herein referred to as the “Nevada Action”). The Nevada Action also asked the Nevada District Court to enforce and monitor a stockholder’s election of the Company’s directors. An annual meeting of stockholders was held in January 2012 at which neither Mr. Milton nor any of the other directors named in the Nevada Action were re-elected. Accordingly, on May 22, 2012, the Nevada District Court (i) dismissed the Nevada Action, and (ii) ordered the Company’s to reimburse both Consipio and Tisbury for their attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in that lawsuit in an amount to be agreed between the plaintiffs and the Company, and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

On December 31, 2012, in order to repay the entire outstanding balance of the Commerzbank Note, the legal fees and costs that the Nevada State Court ordered us to pay, the legal fees and costs we were required to pay Consipio because of the New York lawsuit, and amounts that we owed to third parties, which obligations were acquired by Consipio, Consipio and the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the “Consipio Settlement Agreement”). Because of its financial condition, in lieu of cash, the Company offered to issue to Consipio shares of a new series of preferred stock, designated as the “6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), as payment in full for the amounts owed to Consipio. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated value of EUR 10.00 per share. Accordingly, on December 28, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation for the Series B Preferred Stock with the office of the Secretary of State of Nevada to authorize the new series of preferred stock, and thereafter issued 800,000 shares of the newly authorized shares of Series B Preferred Stock to Consipio. Pursuant to the Consipio Settlement Agreement, the parties also (i) agreed to discontinue and withdraw the New York Action with prejudice, and (ii) entered into mutual general releases, with the exception of certain individuals.

Guaranty of EUR One Million Loan by Affiliate of Mr. Milton

On December 11, 2009 a credit line of EUR 1.0 million was re-financed by an institutional lender at an interest rate of EURIBOR + 1.2%. Interest is payable annually starting December 11, 2010. The loan is repayable in equal annual installments over a five-year period starting December 11, 2011. The loan is guaranteed by an affiliate of the Company’s former Chairman and shareholder and the guaranty is secured by 666,667 shares of Private Media Group, Inc. Common Stock which are beneficially owned by the Company’s former Chairman. Subsequent to year end, in December 2012, the Company’s new management renegotiated and restructured the loan. Under the new terms, the loan will bear interest at a rate of 3% per annum, with interest payments due annually at the end of each calendar year commencing in 2013. The repayment dates for the unpaid principal balance, including accrued and unpaid interest in the amount of EUR 73,500, have been extended so that the outstanding principal amount must be repaid as follows: (i) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2016, (ii) EUR 350,000 is due on January 1, 2017, and (iii) the balance of EUR 373,500 is due on January 1, 2018.

Unsecured Loans to Slingsby Enterprises Limited

We have unsecured loans to Slingsby Enterprises Limited (“Slingsby”), an entity controlled by Mr. Milton (the “Slingsby Loans”), which bear interest at the rate of EURIBOR+1% per annum and have no maturity date. As of December 31, ~~2011~~2012 EUR 7.67 million remained outstanding on these loans, including interest. No payments of principal or interest have been made in respect of the Slingsby Loans. As described below, as at December 31, 2010, the Company provided for these loans in full. However, the Company is currently evaluating avenues of recourse against Slingsby and Mr. Milton.

In connection with the acquisition of Game Link by the Company on January 20, 2009, in order to induce the sellers to consummate the acquisition, Slingsby Enterprises Limited entered into an agreement (the “Game Link Letter Agreement”) with the Company and the sellers with regard to the partial repayment of the Slingsby Loans. Under ~~the~~ ~~Game Link Letter Agreement, in each of~~ the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009, 2010, and 2011, Slingsby is required to repay not less than EUR one million, either in cash or in Private common stock valued at its fair market value as determined by the disinterested directors of Private, to be applied first to accrued interest and then to principal of the loan. At December 31, 2011, Slingsby had not made the EUR one million payments due on each of December 31, 2009, December 31, 2010, and December 31, 2011.

InF January 2010 Mr. Milton advised the Company’s Board of Directors that Slingsby did not make the EUR one million payment due under the Game Link Letter Agreement on December 31, 2009, as he had arranged for the EUR one million December 2009 Refinancing on terms favorable to the Company and arranged for the pledge of 666,667 shares of common stock beneficially owned by Mr. Milton to secure the December 2009 Refinancing. In February 2010 the Company’s then-~~current~~ ~~independent directors determined that it was not in the best interest of the~~22 ~~Company to enforce the December 31, 2009 EUR one million payment obligation under the Game Link Letter Agreement, but that the payments due in 2010 and 2011 would remain in place.~~

The independent directors further determined in April 2010 that the terms of the Slingsby Loan should be renegotiated with Mr. Milton to reflect reasonable market terms in view of a number of factors, including the size of the loan, the failure of Slingsby Enterprises Limited to make the scheduled payment due on December 31, 2009, the absence of any security for the loan and the absence of a fixed maturity date or agreed payment schedule sufficient to repay the full amount of the Slingsby Loan. In April 2010 Mr. Milton proposed to restructure the payment terms of the Slingsby Loan to provide for a personal guaranty of the Slingsby Loan by Mr. Milton, a fixed maturity date of five years, and payments of EUR 1 million, in cash or Private common stock, in 2011 and 2012. However, the Company and Mr. Milton were unable to reach agreement on the material terms of the restructuring of the Slingsby Loan. Based upon the payment history of the loan and the absence of

Game Link Agreements

In January 2009 the Company completed the acquisition of Game Link LLC and eLine LLC, companies engaged in the business of digital distribution of adult content over the Internet and online eCommerce development. Mr. Bunimovitz was the founder and chief operating officer of Game Link LLC and an indirect co-owner of Game Link LLC and eLine, LLC. In consideration of the acquisition of Mr. Bunimovitz’ interests in Game Link LLC and eLine LLC, he received 2,066,725 shares of the Company’s common stock and he is entitled to receive additional shares of common stock if the combined EBITDA of the digital media operations of the Company and Game Link meet specified targets in 2009, 2010 and 2011. As a result of the Game Link Settlement Agreement and Release entered into on May 22, 2012, as described in Note 203, an additional 1,295,089 shares were issued to Mr. Bunimovitz in accordance with the settlement agreement.

In connection with the acquisition by the Company of Game Link LLC and its affiliate, Game Link LLC entered into a lease agreement with 537 Stevenson Street L.L.C., a limited liability company which is 50% owned by Mr. Bunimovitz, providing for the lease by Game Link LLC of the land and building used by Game Link in San Francisco, California. The lease extended through December 31, 2011, has a base rent of $13,620 per month, and provides for Game Link to be responsible for property taxes and maintenance expenses during the term of the lease.

Sureflix Transactions

Effective December 17, 2009, the Company appointed Eric Johnson as a director pursuant to his three-year Employment Agreement with the Company and Sureflix entered into on October 29, 2009. The Employment Agreement was entered into in connection with the acquisition of Sureflix on October 29, 2009 as described in Note 3.

In consideration of the acquisition of Mr. Johnson’s interest in Sureflix, he received non-voting Class A Preference Shares of Entruphema Inc. convertible into 130,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and is entitled to receive up to 70,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock if the combined EBITDA of the digital media operations of the Company and Sureflix meet specified targets. Subsequent to year end the remaining shares were issued to Mr. Johnson in accordance with the Sureflix acquisition agreement, see Note 203.

In the Statement of Claim, Mr. Bunimovitz alleged that (1) his termination on July 19, 2010, was without “cause” under his written Employment Agreement; (2) the termination was taken in retaliation for Mr. Bunimovitz demanding an independent investigation of Mr. Milton’s alleged “self-dealing transactions and was taken in an effort to silence him”; and (3) the termination of employment was not properly authorized by the Board of Directors, and is therefore invalid.

Ilan Bunimovitz Legal Action

In July 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz was terminated as Chief Executive Officer of Private Media, and Mr. Milton was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer. On July 23, 2010, Mr. Bunimovitz filed a Demand for Arbitration and related Statement of Claim against the Company with JAMS (Case No. 1100063395), a private arbitration service, pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of his Employment Agreement, contesting his termination as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

Mr. Bunimovitz sought unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

In March 2011 Mr. Bunimovitz amended his Statement of Claim to include two additional allegations: that the Company improperly failed to allow him to sell shares he received when his company (Game Link) was acquired by the Company; and that the Company has failed to deliver the shares to which he is entitled to receive under the earnout provisions of the acquisition agreement between the Company and Game Link.

On November 30, 2011 the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement And Release with Mr. Bunimovitz and Game Link to settle all of the foregoing claims made by Mr. Bunimovitz against the Company. As a result, the JAMS employment arbitration and the U.S. Department of Labor claim have been settled and dismissed.

Shareholders’ equity

Reverse stock split

The Company implemented a 1:3 reverse stock split on March 11, 2010, whereby each holder of Common Stock received one share of Common Stock for each three shares owned on the record date. Corresponding adjustments have been made to options outstanding and any shares issuable to reflect the reverse stock split. Accordingly, all share and per share values have been adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split.

Retained Earnings

The Company is a holding company with no significant operations of its own. Accordingly, the retained earnings of the Company represent the accumulated earnings of its foreign subsidiaries. The ability of the Company to pay dividends is dependent on the transfer of accumulated earnings from these subsidiaries. The Company’s current intention is to re-invest the unremitted earnings of its foreign subsidiaries.

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. The common stock is not redeemable and has no conversion or pre-emptive rights.

During 2000 the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 10% of the Company’s outstanding common shares. Such purchases may be made from time to time in the open market for an indefinite period of time. As of December 31, ~~2011~~2012 no shares had been repurchased.

Tisbury Settlement

As stated above, in the Stipulation And Order For Dismissal, the Nevada District Court ordered the Company to reimburse Tisbury for the attorneys’ fees and costs it incurred in the Nevada Action in an amount to be agreed between Tisbury and the Company and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. Tisbury and the Company thereafter agreed that the sum total of the reimbursable amount of attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Tisbury in connection with the Nevada Action and owed by the Company to Tisbury under the Stipulation And Order For Dismissal is approximately $450,000.

Under the Tisbury Settlement Agreement, in lieu of cash, the Company issued to Tisbury (i) 3,000,000 unregistered shares of Common Stock, and (ii) a five-year, contingent warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase up to a total of up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The Warrant has an exercise price of $0.25 per share and is exercisable in four tranches of 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock each if, and only if, when, and to the extent that the number of issued and outstanding shares Common Stock exceeds (i) 45,000,000 shares, (ii) 50,000,000 shares, (iii) 60,000,000 shares, and (iv) 70,000,000 shares (as adjusted to reflect stock splits, stock combinations, stock dividends, and other similar events). In the event that the number of issued and outstanding shares during the term of the Warrant does not exceed some or all of the foregoing limits, the Warrant shall expire with respect to the shares that did not become exercisable. The Tisbury has accepted the foregoing 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock and the Warrant as payment and satisfaction, in full, of all amounts owed, or that may be owed, by the Company to Tisbury in connection with the Nevada Action and under the Stipulation And Order For Dismissal.

6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock

~~Subsequent~~On ~~to year end, on~~ December 28, 2012, the Company created a new series of preferred stock, designated as the “6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). A total of 1,300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been authorized, of which 800,000 have been issued and are currently owned by Consipio, see Notes 13 and 2014. The Company may issue additional shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to repay other creditors and/or to raise additional capital. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated issue price of EUR 10.00 per share. The principal terms of the Series B Preferred Stock include the following:

•

Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (including a Deemed Liquidation Event as described below), the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid an amount per share equal to EUR 11.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. The liquidation payment is payable before any payment made to the holders of the Common Stock. A Deemed Liquidation Event includes the merger of this Company, the sale of its assets, an uninsured judgment rendered against this Company for EUR 1,000,000 or more, or the Company’s failure, on or after July 1, 2013, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) any of Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Annual Reports on Form 10-K by no later than 30 calendar days after the required filing date (including the expiration of any permitted extensions).

•

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 50 shares of Common Stock.

•

Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends at an annual rate of 6% of the EUR 10.00 Series B Preferred Stock original issue price, which shall be cumulative, accrue daily and be payable quarterly, in arrears, in cash on the third business day following March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. However, dividends will cease accruing on the Series B Preferred Stock during any fiscal quarter if all three of the following conditions are met on any day during that fiscal quarter: (i) The Common Stock has been listed or quoted for trading for no less than 60 consecutive trading days on any national U.S. stock exchange (including any market that is part of the Nasdaq Stock Market), the OTC Bulletin Board, and/or on the OTCQX or OTCQB levels of the OTC Markets Group; (ii) The average daily trading volume of the Common Stock for 20 consecutive trading days prior to such date exceeds 10,000 shares, and (iii) The average of the volume weighted average price such 20 consecutive trading days exceeds $1.00 per share (adjusted to reflect any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or stock combination). The dividends payable with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock shall, at the option of the Company, be paid in Euros or by means of a one-year unsecured promissory note. Any such promissory note will bear interest at a rate of 7.5% per annum and be payable in four quarterly payments commencing one year after the date of the dividend payment. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock may, however, elect to receive shares of Common Stock in place of some or all of any quarterly dividend (the value of the shares is based on the 10-day trading price of the Common Stock).

Provided that the Company has registered with the SEC the public resale of the shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at its option the Company may, at any time, redeem the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, for a cash redemption price equal to EUR 10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The redemption price is payable in Euros.

•

At any time between December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2018, a holder of the Series B Preferred Stock may demand that the Company redeem some or all of the holder’s shares of Series B Preferred Stock, to the extent permitted under Nevada law. Each holder may demand that one third of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock the holder initially acquired be redeemed in each calendar year 2016, 2017, and 2018. The redemption price is equal to EUR 10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends and is required to be paid in cash, provided that the Company does not have to pay cash to the extent that such payments would (i) reduce its cash balance to below EUR 1,000,000, or (ii) cause the Company’s current assets to be less than three times its current liabilities, whichever is less. If the Company can’t pay the entire redemption price in cash, it has to pay the balance in a promissory note. The promissory note used to pay any portion of the redemption price shall: (a) bear interest at a fixed rate of prime plus 4% per annum; (b) be payable in four equal quarterly installments of principal and interest on the last day of each calendar quarter; (c) be prepayable at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty; and (d) if necessary to comply with Nevada law governing distributions to shareholders, be subordinated to all of the Company’s creditors. The Company also has the right to defer any payment under the promissory notes if such payment would violate Nevada law.

•

The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock vote together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class. Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holder would be convertible. However, the Company may not take certain actions without the approval of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. These actions that require the approval of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock include (i) changing the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series B Preferred Stock or creating a class that is senior to the Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) selling all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or merging with another entity if following the merger the Company’s shareholders own less than 50% of the voting power in the election of directors, (iii) paying dividends on, or redeeming any shares of Common Stock, (iv) borrowing more than EUR 2,000,000 in the aggregate, other than trade payables and accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business, and (v) issuing more than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock in any single transaction or related set of transactions.

•

In order to allow certain holders of our Series B Preferred Stock to maintain their percentage interest in the Company, until December 31, 2017 each holder of more than 50,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right to participate in the Company’s future capital raising transactions, including the issuances of Common Stock, debt, preferred stock, options, warrants or other instrument that are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock. The number of securities that a qualified holder of Series B Preferred Stock can purchase in our future capital raising issuances is equal to the ratio of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the qualified holder, to (y) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options, warrants, and other convertible securities.

Pursuant to the Consipio Settlement Agreement, the Company on December 28, 2012 issued to Consipio 800,000 shares of its newly created Series B Preferred Stock. The 800,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock owned by Consipio are currently convertible into 40,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock and, until converted, can vote on all matters, including the election of directors, on an “as converted” basis. Taking into account the 3,000,000 shares issued to Tisbury under the Tisbury Settlement Agreement, described below, as at December 28, 2012 the Company has a total of 27,478,700 shares of Common Stock outstanding. Accordingly, since the shares of Series B Preferred Stock that are owned by Consipio have 40,000,000 votes, as of that date Consipio held 59.4% of the aggregate voting power of the Company’s capital stock. As a result, Consipio has the ability to elect a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors.

Stock-based compensation

During 2009, the Company introduced a new Equity Incentive Plan (the “2009 EIP”) to replace the Employee Stock Option Plan (“the 1999 Plan”) which expired on March 31, 2009.

The 1999 Plan

The 1999 Plan, which was in effect until its expiration on March 1, 2009, allowed the Company to grant options to purchase common stock to designated employees, executive officers, directors, consultants, advisors and other corporate and divisional officers of Private Media Group. The 1999 Plan authorized the Company to grant stock options exercisable for up to an aggregate of 2,400,000 shares of common stock. No stock options may be granted under the 1999 Plan, following its expiration, on March 1, 2009.

Under the 1999 Plan, the purchase price (exercise price) of option shares had to be at least equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date the stock option was granted. The stock option was exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of grant or such shorter period as was determined by the Company. Each stock option under the plan provided that it was exercisable in full or in cumulative or non-cumulative installments and each stock option was exercisable from the date of grant or any later date specified in the option. Unless otherwise provided by the Company, an optionee could not exercise a stock option unless from the date of grant to the date of exercise the optionee remained continuously in the Company’s employ. There were no Awards for ~~4,334~~ shares ~~were~~ still outstanding under the 1999 Plan as at December 31, ~~2011~~2012.

The 2009 EIP

The 2009 EIP is shareholder approved and came into effect on December 16, 2009. It allows the Company to grant incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, unrestricted stock and other equity-based awards, such as stock appreciation rights, phantom stock awards, and restricted stock units, which we refer to collectively as Awards. The Company may issue up to 2,066,667 shares of its common stock pursuant to Awards granted. Shares pursuant to Awards that have expired or are forfeited will be returned to the 2009 EIP. At December 31, ~~2011~~2012, Awards for 2,065,667 shares were available for future grant under the 2009 EIP and Awards for 1,000 shares were outstanding.

The Company may grant Awards under the 2009 EIP to employees, directors and consultants of Private Media Group. No Awards may be granted after the 2009 EIP expires on December 15, 2019. The purchase price (exercise price) of option shares must be at least equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date the stock option is granted or such later date the Company may specify. Each Award may provide that it is exercisable in full or in cumulative or non-cumulative installments, and each Award is exercisable from the date of grant or any later date specified in the Award. Awards must expire within a period of ten years from the date of grant or such shorter period as is determined by the Company. Unless otherwise provided by the Company, an Award holder may not exercise an Award unless from the date of grant to the date of exercise the holder remains continuously in the Company’s employ.

Awards become exercisable on their respective vesting dates with vesting terms determined by management and approved by the Company’s compensation committee. ~~The~~There was no compensation cost charged against income for the twelve-month periods ended December 31, ~~2010 and~~ 2011 ~~was~~or ~~EUR 2 thousand and EUR nil, respectively, which is included in selling, general and administrative expense~~2012. ~~The charge of compensation cost had no impact on tax since none of the option beneficiaries are taxable in the U.S. and tax rules are~~ ~~different in the beneficiaries’ respective tax jurisdictions.~~

Stock-based compensation cost for stock awards is measured based on the closing fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

Stock-based compensation cost for option awards is measured on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following general assumptions are used: a) expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock; b) expected life is determined based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior; c) risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant; and d) dividend yield is zero based on the Company’s current dividend policy.

No grants were made during the years ended December 31, ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2011~~2012.

As of December 31, ~~2011~~2012, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested options granted under the Plan. The total fair value of all options vested and outstanding at December 31, ~~2010~~2011 and ~~2011~~2012 was USD 221,000 and ~~USD~~nil ~~1,000~~ respectively.

Fair value measurements

The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists the three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. The Company categorizes each of its fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

•

Level 1—inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

•

Level 2—inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques (such as a Black-Scholes or Lattice model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•

Level 3—inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash flow models.

1 The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of our common stock for the options that were in-the-money at December 31, 2011.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company measures certain assets, such as goodwill, other intangible assets and developed website technology at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be impaired. The fair values are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available and may include quoted market prices, market comparables, and discounted cash flow projections. An impairment charge is recorded when the cost of the asset exceeds its fair value.

There are no liabilities to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis for the year ended December 31, 2012.

6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock

On December 28, 2012, the Company created a new series of preferred stock, designated as the “6% Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock” (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). A total of 1,300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock have been authorized, of which 800,000 have been issued and are currently owned by Consipio, see Notes 13 and 14. The Company may issue additional shares of the Series B Preferred Stock to repay other creditors and/or to raise additional capital. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated issue price of EUR 10.00 per share. The principal terms of the Series B Preferred Stock include the following:

• Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (including a Deemed Liquidation Event as described below), the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid an amount per share equal to EUR 11.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. The liquidation payment is payable before any payment made to the holders of the Common Stock. A Deemed Liquidation Event includes the merger of this Company, the sale of its assets, an uninsured judgment rendered against this Company for EUR 1,000,000 or more, or the Company’s failure, on or after July 1, 2013, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) any of Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Annual Reports on Form 10-K by no later than 30 calendar days after the required filing date (including the expiration of any permitted extensions).

• Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 50 shares of Common Stock.

• Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends at an annual rate of 6% of the EUR 10.00 Series B Preferred Stock original issue price, which shall be cumulative, accrue daily and be payable quarterly, in arrears, in cash on the third business day following March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. However, dividends will cease accruing on the Series B Preferred Stock during any fiscal quarter if all three of the following conditions are met on any day during that fiscal quarter: (i) The Common Stock has been listed or quoted for trading for no less than 60 consecutive trading days on any national U.S. stock exchange (including any market that is part of the Nasdaq Stock Market), the OTC Bulletin Board, and/or on the OTCQX or OTCQB levels of the OTC Markets Group; (ii) The average daily trading volume of the Common Stock for 20 consecutive trading days prior to such date exceeds 10,000 shares, and (iii) The average of the volume weighted average price such 20 consecutive trading days

exceeds $1.00 per share (adjusted to reflect any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend or stock combination). The dividends payable with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock shall, at the option of the Company, be paid in Euros or by means of a one-year unsecured promissory note. Any such promissory note will bear interest at a rate of 7.5% per annum and be payable in four quarterly payments commencing one year after the date of the dividend payment. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock may, however, elect to receive shares of Common Stock in place of some or all of any quarterly dividend (the value of the shares is based on the 10-day trading price of the Common Stock).

• Provided that the Company has registered with the SEC the public resale of the shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at its option the Company may, at any time, redeem the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, for a cash redemption price equal to EUR 10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. The redemption price is payable in Euros.

• At any time between December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2018, a holder of the Series B Preferred Stock may demand that the Company redeem some or all of the holder’s shares of Series B Preferred Stock, to the extent permitted under Nevada law. Each holder may demand that one third of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock the holder initially acquired be redeemed in each calendar year 2016, 2017, and 2018. The redemption price is equal to EUR 10.00 plus any accrued and unpaid dividends and is required to be paid in cash, provided that the Company does not have to pay cash to the extent that such payments would (i) reduce its cash balance to below EUR 1,000,000, or (ii) cause the Company’s current assets to be less than three times its current liabilities, whichever is less. If the Company can’t pay the entire redemption price in cash, it has to pay the balance in a promissory note. The promissory note used to pay any portion of the redemption price shall: (a) bear interest at a fixed rate of prime plus 4% per annum; (b) be payable in four equal quarterly installments of principal and interest on the last day of each calendar quarter; (c) be prepayable at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty; and (d) if necessary to comply with Nevada law governing distributions to shareholders, be subordinated to all of the Company’s creditors. The Company also has the right to defer any payment under the promissory notes if such payment would violate Nevada law.

• The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock vote together with the holders of Common Stock as a single class. Each holder of Series B Preferred Stock is entitled to cast the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by such holder would be convertible. However, the Company may not take certain actions without the approval of a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock. These actions that require the approval of the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock include (i) changing the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series B Preferred Stock or creating a class that is senior to the Series B Preferred Stock, (ii) selling all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or merging with another entity if following the merger the Company’s shareholders own less than 50% of the voting power in the election of directors, (iii) paying dividends on, or redeeming any shares of Common Stock, (iv) borrowing more than EUR 2,000,000 in the aggregate, other than trade payables and accrued expenses incurred in the ordinary course of business, and (v) issuing more than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock in any single transaction or related set of transactions.

• In order to allow certain holders of our Series B Preferred Stock to maintain their percentage interest in the Company, until December 31, 2017 each holder of more than 50,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall have the right to participate in the Company’s future capital raising transactions, including the issuances of Common Stock, debt, preferred stock, options, warrants or other instrument that are convertible into or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock. The number of securities that a qualified holder of Series B Preferred Stock can purchase in our future capital raising issuances is equal to the ratio of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the qualified holder, to (y) the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise or conversion of all outstanding options, warrants, and other convertible securities.
