Escrowed Shares and Adjustment Shares.

On the Closing Date, the Company shall execute and deliver to the Bell/Staton Group Parties such joinder or related agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Seller and the Bell/Staton Group Parties, pursuant to which the Company shall covenant and agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Settlement and Stock Purchase Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement, as though it was an original party signatory thereto.


6.

Failure to Obtain Exchange Approvals.

In the event that, for any reason, that: (i) by December 31, 2004, the American Stock Exchange LLC (“AMEX”), the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. or the NASDAQ Stock Exchange, Inc. (a “National Securities Exchange”) shall fail to approve the terms of the Company’s acquisition of the Subject Shares, the issuance of the Company Securities and the listing on the AMEX or another National Securities Exchange of all shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Company Securities; or (ii) by January 21, 2005, the AMEX shall have refused to approve the proposed acquisition by the Company of Media Billing Company, LLC and Internet Billing Company, LLC (the “iBill Acquisition”) contemplated by the securities purchase agreement (the “iBill Purchase Agreement”), dated as of July 22, 2004, as amended, between the Company and Penthouse International, Inc. (“PSHL”), and the listing on the AMEX of (A) approximately 3.2 million shares of Common Stock, and (B) all shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the 330,000 shares of Company Series D convertible preferred stock (the “PSHL Series D Preferred”) proposed to be issued at the closing of the iBill Acquisition (collectively, the “Exchange Approvals”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the iBill Purchase Agreement, the Certificate of Designations applicable to the PSHL Series D Preferred or in the Notes and Certificates of Designations applicable to the Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred Stock or Series G Preferred Stock:


(a)

the iBill Acquisition shall, for all purposes be deemed to be closed and consummated effective as of January 21, 2005;


(b)

all shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the PSHL Series D Preferred shall become immediately convertible at the option of PHSL, effective as of January 21, 2005; and


(c)

all shares of Company Common Stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of the Notes, the Series E Preferred Stock, the Series F Preferred Stock, the Series G Preferred Stock and other Company Securities shall become immediately convertible into or exercisable for shares of Company Common Stock, at the option of the holders thereof, effective as of December 31, 2004.


To facilitate the foregoing agreement of the Parties, the Company hereby has executed and delivered in escrow to Gersten Savage Kaplowitz Wolf & Marcus LLP, (the “Escrow Agent”) new Notes, and new Certificates of Designation with respect to each of the PSHL Series D Preferred, the Series E Preferred Stock, the Series F Preferred and the Series G Preferred Stock, in the forms of Exhibit “A”, Exhibit “B”, Exhibit “C”, Exhibit “D” and Exhibit “E” annexed hereto (collectively, the “Escrowed Securities”); which Escrowed Securities, by their terms, eliminate all restrictions upon or conditions to the immediate conversion of such PSHL Series D Preferred and Company Securities into shares of Company Common Stock. At 12:00 Noon (New York time) on December 31, 2004 (or sooner if Exchange Approval shall have been previously obtained), such Escrow Agent is hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorized and directed

by all of the Parties to (i) deliver the New Notes to the purchasers thereof, (ii) file the Certificates of Designation for the Series E Preferred Stock, Series F Preferred and Series G Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and (iii) instruct the transfer agent of the Company to issue all of the Company Securities. In addition at 12:00 Noon (New York time) on January 21, 2005 (or sooner if AMEX approval shall be previously obtained), such Escrow Agent is hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorized and directed by all of the Parties to (i) to file the escrowed Certificates of Designation for the PSHL Series D Preferred with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and (ii) instruct the transfer agent of the Company to issue all of the Company Common Stock issuable to PSHL at closing of the iBill Acquisition in accordance with the terms of the iBill Agreement. The Escrow Agent is also hereby irrevocably and unconditionally authorized and directed to take such other actions as may be required by Delaware Law to effectuate the foregoing.


7.

Rescission of Closing under iBill Purchase Agreement.

The Parties hereto acknowledge that the Company has recently received from the AMEX a notice of its intention, subject to a hearing if requested by the Company, to delist the Company Common Stock from listing and registration on the AMEX (the “Delisting Notice”). The AMEX has also advised the Company that it will withdraw such Delisting Notice, if the Company and PSHL rescind the closing of the iBill Acquisition, pending completion of AMEX review and approval or rejection of such iBill Acquisition. In order to comply with the AMEX’s request, pursuant to a separate agreement between PSHL and the Company, dated of even date herewith (the “Rescission Agreement”), PSHL and the Company have agreed to rescind the closing and consummation of the iBill Acquisition, pending receipt of approval of the iBill Acquisition by the AMEX; provided, that all of the terms and conditions of the iBill Purchase Agreement continue to remain in full force and effect.


In order to facilitate the intent of the Parties and the provisions Section 6 of this Agreement, PSHL and the Company do hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agree that in the event that either (i) the AMEX shall, for any reason by January 21, 2005, not approve, in all respects, the consummation of the iBill Acquisition and the listing on the AMEX of the Company Common Stock and shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the PSHL Series D Preferred, or (ii) at any time prior to January 31, 2005, the Company shall breach any of its covenants and agreements set forth in Section 4.2 of the iBill Purchase Agreement:




5




(a)

the iBill Acquisition shall, for all purposes, be deemed effective and closed as of January 21, 2005, on the identical terms and conditions set forth in the iBill Purchase Agreement (provided that all rights of rescission set forth in the iBill Purchase Agreement shall be deemed forever waived); and


(b)

the Company shall voluntarily withdraw from the AMEX, and immediately apply for listing of its Common Stock on another National Securities Exchange or trade on the NASD OTC-Bulletin Board.
