      2. Term. The Initial Term of this Agreement shall commence on the date of
this Agreement first written above and shall continue for a period of three
years unless thereafter sooner terminated as provided elsewhere in this
Agreement. Upon expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement thereafter shall
remain in full force and effect for successive one-year terms ("Renewal Terms")
unless terminated as provided elsewhere in this Agreement or by either party by
written notice given as provided in Section 14 below not less than four (4)
months prior to the end of the Initial Term or four (4) months prior to the end
of any Renewal Term thereafter.

      3. Prices and Terms of Payment (a) PCD shall charge and invoice Client for
services performed and materials provided by PCD as set forth in Exhibit A
hereto upon completion of these services in accordance with the prices and rates
set forth in Exhibit A. Any special services performed during the month shall be
included at prices determined in accordance with Section 1(b) above.

            (b) Third-Party Materials. All printed Materials which are provided
by PCD, either directly or from third party suppliers or services provided by
third party suppliers, shall be invoiced to Client monthly at PCD's cost plus
[*]%. As set forth in Exhibit A, items such as post cards, postage, shipping
costs and containers shall be charged to Client at cost.

            (c) Billing. Client shall be invoiced by PCD separately for each
Magazine during the first week of each calendar month for Services provided
during the preceding calendar month. All charges invoiced, other than those on
which there is a valid dispute, rendered hereunder shall be payable upon
receipt. Client is responsible for paying within thirty days any and all
undisputed charges. Any such charge or invoice not paid within days of receipt
date shall be considered overdue and accrue interest thereon at the rate of [*]%
per month or the highest rate permitted by law, if less, until the time of
payment of said charge or invoice, at which time said interest shall also be
paid. Both parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any and all
disputes. This provision is in addition to any other remedies that PCD may have
for failure of the Client to make timely payment of its invoice.

            (d) Postage. Client agrees to furnish and pay all charges in respect
of its own postage meters and to maintain its own First Class, Third Class,
Business Reply and postage deposit accounts with the United States Postal
Service in Palm Coast, Florida. Client further agrees to keep on deposit with
PCD an amount equal to the estimated postage on mailings to be made by PCD for
Client where postage is to be paid to the Post Office at the time of the
mailings, and to maintain such deposit at a level, which will cover such
estimated postage for a six-week period. Client understands that failure to
maintain such estimated postage at this minimum level will result in delayed
mailings. Client authorizes PCD to make deposits of these funds into Client's
Business Reply, Postage Due, and Permit accounts; and to request refunds from
the Post Office, if necessary, to recover excess funds deposited into these
accounts by PCD. PCD will submit a Postage Reconciliation Report weekly to the
Client, and Client agrees to pay upon receipt of such Reconciliation, amounts
necessary to replenish such account.

                  (iii) If the Department of Labor should discontinue
            publication of the Index, then such other Index as may be published
            by the Department of Labor, or any other nationally recognized
            publisher of similar statistical information, which most
            approximates the discontinued Index, shall be substituted by PCD for
            the discontinued Index.

between January 1-September 30, and (ii) in the following July, if the increase
is effective on or between October 1-December 31, and shall apply to all prices

prevented continuously for sixty (60) days, PCD shall thereupon have the right
to terminate this Agreement and all obligations of the parties to each other
shall cease and determine, except those specifically designated as surviving
this Agreement.

of the parties of each other shall cease and terminate, except those
specifically stated to survive this Agreement. Costs for services provided by
PCD in any out-conversion process will be billed and paid by the Client in

act or omission, or an event of Force Majeure affecting PCD, and are continuing
when notice is given. Upon exercise by Client, this right shall supersede all
other inconsistent provisions of this Agreement, other than paragraph 10, and

services to be provided hereunder, to keep the service attuned to changing needs
and conditions and to meet unforeseen circumstances and changing economic or
other conditions, PCD shall have the right to make changes in any of its methods
and/or procedures whenever, in its opinion, such changes will tend to create a
net improvement, or cause no impairment, in the services furnished to Client
hereunder.

      16. New Magazines. (a) If a constituent entity ("Member") of Client or any
of its affiliates or subsidiaries (the "Group") commences or acquires a consumer
magazine with a subscription circulation, Client shall have the option to add
such publication to the publications listed on Appendix I hereto subject to
PCD's consent.

            (b) If Client declines to exercise the option provided for in
subparagraph 16 (a) above, Client nevertheless agrees to cause the Member to
negotiate in good faith with PCD, for PCD to provide the services set forth
herein for such magazines, before discussing the same with any third party,
provided that upon Client's notice of its desire to open such discussions and
identification of the magazine and its paid subscription circulation, PCD
indicates that it is ready, willing and able to provide the services set forth
herein for such acquired magazine. Upon receipt of such notification Client
shall negotiate in good faith with PCD and shall not during such negotiations
enter into an agreement with any third party for such services on terms more
favorable than those offered to the Member by PCD during the course of such
negotiations. If an acquired publication is subject to any existing subscription
fulfillment agreement such negotiations shall be directed toward an agreement to
take effect upon termination of the existing agreement. Should such negotiations
fail to produce a written agreement within thirty (30) days of Client's notice
to open discussions, the Member shall be free to contact for fulfillment
services with any third party.

AMENDMENT NO. 1

TO

STOCK EXCHANGE AGREEMENT

     This Amendment No. 1 to Stock Exchange Agreement (this “Amendment”) is
made and entered into as of December 31, 2002, by and between Penthouse
International, Inc., a Florida corporation formerly known as American Pulp
Exchange, Inc. (the “Acquirer”), and General Media International, Inc., a New
York corporation (the “GMI”). Capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall,
unless otherwise expressly provided herein, have the same meanings given to
such terms in the Stock Exchange Agreement dated as of November 4, 2002, by and
between the Acquirer and GMI (the “Stock Exchange Agreement”).

R E C I T A L S

     A.     Section 8.3 of the Stock Exchange Agreement provides that the Stock
Exchange Agreement may be amended by a written agreement executed by the Party
to be charged with the amendment.

     B.     The Acquirer and GMI now mutually desire to amend the Stock Exchange
Agreement as set forth below.

A G R E E M E N T

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

     1.     Amendment to Recitals. Paragraph C of the recitals of the Stock
Exchange Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

		
	 	     “C. Acquirer and GMI wish to enter into this Agreement to
provide for the purchase and sale of the GM Shares in exchange
for newly issued securities of Acquirer and certain other
consideration.”

     2.     Amendment to Section 1.2. Section 1.2 of the Stock Exchange Agreement
is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

		
	 	     “Section 1.2. Exchange Consideration. The Parties
acknowledge that GMI intends to carry out the transactions
contemplated hereunder in consideration of, and in reliance
upon, all rights and benefits to be provided by Acquirer
pursuant to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement,
including (a) the issuance by Acquirer to GMI of 42,500,000
shares of Acquirer Common Stock, (b) the issuance by Acquirer to
GMI of 5,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, (c) the
assignment by VP to GMI of its rights

 

 

	 	under the Stock Purchase Agreement, (d) Acquirer’s obtaining of
MBP’s legal obligations to invest in Acquirer pursuant to the
Series B Purchase Agreement, (e) Acquirer’s obtaining of VP’s
legal obligations pursuant to the VP Option Agreement and the PH
Capital Option Agreement, respectively, and (f) Acquirer’s
entering into the Shareholders’ Agreement (such rights and
benefits, the “Exchange Consideration”).”

     3.     Amendment to Section 8.12. Section 8.12 of the Stock Exchange
Agreement shall be amended to delete the definitions of “Assumed Indebtedness,”
“Assumed Liabilities,” “Gans Indebtedness,” “Secura Indebtedness,” and “Target
Management Indebtedness.”

     4.     Effect of Amendment. This Amendment shall be effective and binding on
all parties hereto. To the extent that this Amendment is inconsistent with or
conflicts with the Stock Exchange Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall
govern. Except as expressly provided in this Amendment, all terms, conditions
and provisions of the Stock Exchange Agreement remain unchanged and in full
force and effect.

     5.     Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered will be deemed an
original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same
agreement.

     6.     Governing Law. This Amendment shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
