Penthouse Creates Digital Magazine

New Online Platform Offered to Consumers And Advertisers

BOCA RATON, Fla., Jan. 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Penthouse Magazine, the re-
launched men's lifestyle publication, in conjunction with Zinio
Systems, Inc., the worldwide leader in digital publishing and
marketing services, is introducing a digital edition of its glossy
periodical. Hence, readers everywhere will no longer have to hide
their Penthouse magazines under their mattress, or in their garages --
ever again!

The newly digitized format was launched last week and showcases the
February 2006 issue that is available on newsstands now. "Technology
has come a long way since Penthouse was first introduced in 1965,"
remarks Penthouse CEO Marc H. Bell, "and it is PMGI's goal to meet and
exceed the needs of our savvy readership. By going digital, we are
able to continue our mission of creating high quality products for men
-- in an ever increasing number of new mediums."

The digital magazine has the same high-quality photography and layouts
that the print edition has, but in an easy-to-use electronic format.
Penthouse readers from Dubai to Dallas can buy a digital subscription,
or pick up a single issue by going to:
http://www.penthouse.com/digital . The subscription or single copy
will then be delivered instantly via the internet through a download
to a PC, laptop or Mac. Additionally, digital subscribers will
automatically receive their copy every month and it can be read online
or offline. If you're overseas or live in a rural area, the digital
format is highly convenient and reliable.

The digital edition will premiere today January 23, 2006. The issue
includes The Penthouse Interview with Iggy Pop, Penthouse Pet of the
Year Runner-Up Cassia Riley's pictorial and Valentine gift ideas for
clueless guys.

"By launching Penthouse digital, we are offering our advertisers a new
venue and increased access to consumers," says Bell. "It's also a
lucrative means to distribute our content while still adding to our
ABC rate base."

"The re-emergence of the Penthouse brand is a significant event in
magazine publishing and we are delighted that they chose us to create
their digital edition," says Scott L. Kauffman, President and CEO of
Zinio. "We are confident that this partnership will generate a
considerable volume of new readers for this active medium."
