  WHEREAS, as a condition precedent to extending the period of availability of
their respective commitments under the Revolving Credit as provided by the
Second Amendment, the Lenders require the Grantor, and to accommodate that
requirement the Grantor desires by this Supplement, to confirm and assure that
all the real estate and other properties, rights, interests and privileges of
the Grantor which are currently subject to the lien of the Deed of Trust be and
constitute collateral security not only for the indebtedness currently secured

extended under the Revolving Credit as so modified; and

  WHEREAS, the Deed of Trust is to continue to secure all the indebtedness now
secured thereby, and this Supplement is being executed and delivered to confirm
and assure the foregoing;

  NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the execution and delivery by the
Lenders of the Second Amendment and other good and valuable consideration,
receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged, the Deed of Trust shall be and hereby is

  TO HAVE AND TO HOLD the Mortgaged Premises and the properties, rights and
privileges hereby granted, transferred, bargained, sold, conveyed, mortgaged,

forever.

  BUT IN TRUST NEVERTHELESS, upon the terms and trust herein set forth, for the
equal and proportionate benefit, security and protection of all present and
future holders of the Notes and the other indebtedness hereby secured; provided,
however, that this instrument is made by Grantor and accepted by Trustee and
Beneficiary upon the express condition that if the principal of and interest on
the Notes and all sums from time to time advanced thereon shall be paid in full
and all other indebtedness hereby secured shall be fully paid and performed
(including all sums payable under or according to the provisions of the
Applications), all Letters of Credit shall have expired and any commitment
contained in the Credit Agreement as amended by, without limitation, the Second
Amendment to extend credit thereunder shall have terminated, then this
instrument and the estate and rights hereby shall cease, terminate and be void
and this instrument shall be released by Trustee upon written request and at the
expense of Grantor, otherwise to remain in full force and effect.

  In order to induce the Lenders to enter the Second Amendment and to induce the
Beneficiary to accept this Supplement, the Grantor hereby further covenants and
agrees with, and represents and warrants to, the Beneficiary as follows:

         1. The foregoing Granting Clauses are in addition to and supplemental
    of and not in substitution for the granting clauses contained in the Deed of
    Trust. Nothing herein contained shall in any manner affect or impair the
    priority of the lien of the Deed of Trust as to the indebtedness which would
    be secured thereby prior to giving effect to this Supplement.


                                      -5-
<PAGE>

     2. Grantor hereby represents and warrants to Beneficiary that as of the
date hereof each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Deed of
Trust as supplemented hereby are true and correct and that no event of default
(as such term is defined in the Deed of Trust), or any other event which with
the lapse of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute such an event
of default, has occurred and is continuing or shall result after giving effect
to this Supplement. The Grantor hereby repeats and reaffirms all covenants and
warranties contained in the Deed of Trust, each and all of which shall be
applicable to all of the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust as
supplemented hereby. The Grantor repeats and reaffirms its covenant that all the
indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust as supplemented hereby will be
promptly paid as and when the same becomes due and payable.

     3. All capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same
meanings herein as they have in the Credit Agreement as amended by, without
limitation, the Second Amendment. The definitions provided herein of any
capitalized terms shall apply to such capitalized terms as the same appear in
the Deed of Trust as supplemented hereby, all to the end that any such
capitalized terms defined herein and used in the Deed of Trust as supplemented
hereby shall now have the meaning given to such capitalized terms herein.
Without limiting the foregoing, all references in the Deed of Trust to the term
"Termination Date" or the date "September 30, 1997" shall be deemed references
to the New Termination Date; all references in the Deed of Trust to the term
"indebtedness hereby secured" shall be deemed references to all the
indebtedness, obligations and liabilities secured by the Deed of Trust as
supplemented hereby; and all references in the Deed of Trust to the Credit
Agreement shall be deemed references to the Credit Agreement as amended by the
Second Amendment and as the same may from time to time be further modified or
amended.

     4. All of the provisions, stipulations, powers and covenants contained in
the Deed of Trust shall stand and remain unchanged and in full force and effect
except to the extent specifically modified hereby and shall be applicable to all
of the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust as supplemented hereby.

     5. The Deed of Trust as hereby supplemented is given to secure, among other
things, loans and letters of credit extended on a revolving basis and shall
secure not only presently existing indebtedness under the Credit Agreement as
amended by the Second Amendment but also future advances, whether such advances
are obligatory or to be made at the option of Beneficiary, or otherwise, as are
made within ten (10) years from the date hereof, to the same extent as if such
future advances were made on the date of the execution of the Deed of Trust,
although there may be no advance made at the time of execution of this
Supplement and although there may be no indebtedness hereby secured outstanding
at the time any advance is made. The lien of the Deed of Trust as hereby
supplemented shall be valid as to all indebtedness hereby secured, including
future advances, from the time of its filing for record in the recorder's or
registrar's office in the county in which the Mortgaged Premises are located.
The total amount of indebtedness hereby secured may increase or decrease from
time to time, but the total unpaid balance of indebtedness secured

                                      -6-
<PAGE>

(including disbursements which Beneficiary may make under the Deed of Trust as
hereby supplemented, the Credit Agreement as amended by the Second Amendment or
any other documents related thereto) at any one time outstanding shall not
exceed a maximum principal amount of Sixty Million Dollars ($60,000,000) plus
interest thereon and any disbursements made for payment of taxes, special
assessments or insurance on the Mortgaged Premises and interest on such
disbursements (all such indebtedness being hereinafter referred to as the
"maximum amount secured hereby"). The Deed of Trust as hereby supplemented shall
be valid and have priority over all subsequent liens and encumbrances, including
statutory liens, excepting solely taxes and assessments levied on the Mortgaged
Premises, to the extent of the maximum amount secured hereby.

     6. This Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed shall be an original but all of which to constitute one and the same
instrument.

     7. No reference to this Supplement need be made in any note, instrument or
other document making reference to the Deed of Trust, any reference to the Deed
of Trust in any of such to be deemed to be a reference to the Deed of Trust as
supplemented hereby.

     8. Wherever herein any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference
shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all the
covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Grantor, or by or on
behalf of the Beneficiary, or by or on behalf of the holder or holders of the
indebtedness hereby secured contained in the Deed of Trust as supplemented
hereby shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and
assigns of such parties, whether so expressed or not.

                                      -7-

                           PLAYBOY ENTERPRISES, INC.

                      SUPPLEMENT TO COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS

     This Supplement to Collateral Documents dated as of March 5, 1996 by and
among Playboy Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), Playboy
Entertainment Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("PEG"), Critics' Choice
Video, Inc., an Illinois corporation ("Critics' Choice"), and Lifestyle Brands,
Ltd., a Delaware corporation ("Lifestyle") (the Company, PEG, Critics' Choice
and Lifestyle being hereinafter referred to as the "Pledgors"), and Harris Trust
and Savings Bank, an Illinois banking corporation, not in its individual
capacity, but solely in its capacity as agent under the Credit Agreement and
Collateral Documents hereinafter identified and defined (such banking
corporation in such capacity being hereinafter referred to as the "Agent"):

                               WITNESSETH THAT:

     WHEREAS, the Company has entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of
February 10, 1995 with the Agent and the various lenders (such Credit Agreement
as the same has been and may from time to time hereafter be modified or amended
being hereinafter referred to as the "Credit Agreement"), under which the
lenders party thereto have extended and from time to time will extend credit to
the Company;

     WHEREAS, the Pledgors have executed and delivered to the Agent various
security agreements, mortgages, assignments, financing statements and other
documents to secure, among other things, the credit extended under the Credit
Agreement (such security agreements, mortgages, assignments, financing
statements and other documents as from time to time amended, modified or
otherwise supplemented being hereinafter referred to as the "Collateral
Documents");

     WHEREAS, the Pledgors have requested that the Agent release certain
collateral subject to the Collateral Documents and otherwise confirm that such
collateral is not subject to the Collateral Documents, and the Agent is willing
to do so on the terms and conditions set forth in this Supplement;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the credit arrangements created and
provided for by the Credit Agreement, the Agent and the Pledgors hereby agree as
follows:

     1. The Agent hereby releases from the liens and security interests granted
and provided for by the Collateral Documents, and hereby agrees that such liens
and security interests do not encumber, each motion picture, film, video or
movie or similar audio or visual medium of communication in use now or in the
future in which any Pledgor has any proprietary interest (each such motion
picture, film, video or other medium being hereinafter referred to as a "Playboy
film"), and all rights incident to such Playboy film (such as the right to
distribute and otherwise exploit the same), in each case to the extent


<PAGE>

rights to distribute or otherwise exploit such Playboy film have been contracted
by any Pledgor to an unaffiliated third party in a bona fide, arm's-length
transaction prior to the acceleration pursuant to the terms of the Credit
Agreement or nonpayment at final maturity of the Company's obligations for such
consideration to such Pledgor (such as royalties) which such Pledgor in good
faith deems adequate and the terms of such contractual arrangements either
prohibit the Agent's lien on such Playboy film or require the Agent enter into a
specific non-disturbance agreement with such party to assure such party's use of
such Playboy film; provided, however, that the Agent has and shall at all times
retain a security interest in the Pledgor's right to the consideration due and
to become due to such Pledgor under such contractual arrangements (including the
proceeds of such consideration).

     2. All the provisions, stipulations, powers and covenants contained in the
Collateral Documents shall stand and remain unchanged and in full force and
effect except to the extent specifically modified hereby. This Supplement shall
in no way affect or impair the validity or priority of any liens or security
interests on the Collateral not specifically released hereby. All references in
any instrument or document delivered in connection with the Credit Agreement to
any Collateral Document shall be deemed a reference to such Collateral Document
as modified hereby.

     3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit
Agreement or any Collateral Document, the terms and conditions of this
Supplement shall control the subject matter hereof in the event of any conflict
with the Credit Agreement or any Collateral Document.

     4. This Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed to be an original but all of which are to constitute one and the same
instrument. Except as specifically modified hereby, all of the terms and
conditions of the Collateral Documents shall stand and remain unchanged and in
full force and effect. No reference to this Supplement need be made in any note,
instrument or other document taking reference to any Collateral Document, any
reference to a Collateral Document in any of such to be deemed to be a reference
to such Collateral Document as modified hereby. This instrument shall be
construed and governed by and in accordance with the laws of the State of
Illinois.
