Resignation of Director
On November 7, 2010, Johan G. Carlberg, a Director of Private Media Group, Inc. (the “Company”), notified the Board of Directors of the Company of his resignation from the Board of Directors effective immediately.

Mr. Carlberg did not resign as a Director as the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies, or practices.
As Mr. Carlberg was also a nominee for election as a director at the 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, to be held on November 18, 2010, the Board of Directors intends to select and recommend to shareholders a replacement nominee prior to the Annual Meeting on November 18. Proxies submitted by shareholders in connection with the 2010 Annual Meeting which are voted for Johan Carlberg will instead be voted by the Board’s proxies in favor of the nominee voted by the Board to replace Mr. Carlberg as a nominee.
