This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”) is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Private Media Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Issuer”). All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.
This Amendment is being filed to amend Items 4 and 7 of the Schedule 13D as set forth below:
ITEM 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION. |
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended with the addition of the following:
On or about August 12, 2010, Tisbury, together with Consipio Holding BV (“Consipio”), Ilan Bunomovitz and Claudio Gianascio, filed a complaint against the Issuer and the officers and directors of Issuer in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada, requesting, among other remedies, an injunction under Section 78.650 of the Nevada Revised Statutes to restrain Issuer from issuing additional shares of capital stock or engaging in any related party transactions, and an appointment of a receiver (the “Complaint”).
Tisbury, Consipio, and Messrs. Bunomovitz and Gianascio (collectively, the “Majority Shareholders”), together hold a majority interest in the Issuer. As holders of more than 50% of the voting power of the Common Stock, the Majority Shareholders executed a written consent dated September 10, 2010 to amend and restate the Issuer’s Bylaws. The Bylaws, as amended and restated, now, among other things, (1) limit the ability of the Issuer’s Board of Directors without the approval of the shareholders to issue additional shares of capital stock or to approve related party transactions or contracts, and (2) establish the annual meeting date as the third Thursday of November, to be held at the Issuer's executive offices located in San Francisco. The foregoing changes to the Bylaws are not expected to impede the acquisition of control of the Issuer by any person.
In connection with the activities described above, the Reporting Persons may communicate with, and express their views regarding the Issuer, the Complaint and related matters, to other persons, including, without limitation, Consipio, Ilan Bunomovitz and Claudio Gianascio. However, no agreement has been reached with any of the Majority Shareholders with respect to the acquisition, holding, voting or disposing of Issuer’s equity securities (including the exercise of Tisbury’s voting rights at the Issuer’s annual meeting of shareholders or otherwise).
Tisbury disclaims membership in a group with Consipio Holding BV, Ilan Bunomovitz and Claudio Gianascio pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Tisbury reserves the right in the future to take such actions with respect to its investment in the Issuer as it deems appropriate including, without limitation, seeking Board representation, making proposals to the Issuer concerning the capitalization of the Issuer, or other actions that may result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a)-(j) of Schedule 13D.
THIS SCHEDULE 13D IS NOT A SOLICITATION AND NO SHAREHOLDER OF THE ISSUER IS REQUESTED TO TAKE ANY ACTION WITH RESPECT TO THE COMMON STOCK OF THE ISSUER. THE REPORTING PERSONS ARE NOT HEREBY SOLICITING, AND DO NOT INTEND TO SOLICIT, ANY SHAREHOLDER TO VOTE, WITHHOLD A VOTE, GRANT A PROXY WITH REGARD TO, OR IN ANY OTHER WAY TAKE ACTION WITH REGARD TO THE ELECTION OF DIRECTORS OR ANY OTHER MATTER TO BE VOTED UPON AT THE ISSUER’S ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OR OTHERWISE.
