Re:  Playboy Entertainment Group, Inc. Distribution Agreement
     --------------------------------------------------------
     Supplement and Amendment
     ------------------------

Gentlemen:

Reference is made to that certain letter agreement dated August 22, 1991 between
Uni Distribution Corp. ("Uni") and Playboy Video Enterprises, Inc., the
predecessor in interest to Playboy Entertainment Group, Inc. ("Playboy"),
relating to the distribution of Playboy programs on VHS home videocassettes in
the United States and Canada. Such letter agreement, including all exhibits
thereto and as it may have been supplemented or amended, is referred to as the
"Agreement." All defined terms used in this letter amendment (the "Amendment")
and not defined herein are defined in the Agreement. Uni and Playboy desire to
supplement and amend the Agreement as follows:

1. Term.  The term of the Agreement (the "Term") shall be extended to March 25,
1998, with no automatic renewal, so that the Term shall terminate on such date,
subject to extension pursuant to subparagraph 3(a) of 6(b)(vii) below. During
the Term, neither party shall have the right originally set forth in Section 1
of the Agreement to terminate the Agreement on six (6) months' prior written
notice. After the effective date of termination of the Term, Uni shall have no
rights of any kind or nature to any program released or distributed under the
Agreement and to which such termination applies, except that for each New
Release Program (as defined in Paragraph 3 below) released in the six (6) months
prior to the effective date of termination for the New Release Programs, Uni
shall have six (6) months from the initial release date to exploit such program
in the manner authorized under the Agreement.

2.  Territory.  The territory of Uni's rights under the Agreement shall be the
United States and Canada (the "Territory").

3.  Product.  Commencing March 26, 1995, the programs to be distributed by Uni
under the Agreement shall consist of all English-language, Playboy-branded,
non-feature film, non-television

                                       1

<PAGE>

movie, home video programs currently in distribution in the United States on
home videocassette or released in the United States on home videocassette during
the Term for New Release Programs, and no others. Such programs are categorized
as follows:

     (a) All English-language, Playboy-branded, non-feature film home video
     programs initially released in the United States on home videocassette on
     or after March 27, 1994 through the end of the Term for New Release
     Programs. Such programs are referred to as the "New Release Programs" and
     shall exclude feature films and television movies. Playboy commits to
     release at least twelve (12) New Release Programs each contract year of the
     Agreement, commencing March 26, 1995, subject to force majeure and other
     events beyond Playboy's reasonable control. Subject to Uni's and Playboy's
     respective rights at law and under the Agreement, if in any contract year
     of the Agreement, Playboy does not release at least twelve (12) New Release
     Programs in such contract year, then such contract year with respect only
     to the New Release Programs and not to the Catalog Programs (as defined in
     subparagraph 3(b) below) shall be extended to the date on which Playboy
     releases the twelfth (12th) New Release Program for such contract year, and
     the commencement date and the end date of each succeeding contract year and
     the end date of the Term with respect only to the New Release Programs and
     not to the Catalog Programs shall be correspondingly extended.

     (b) All English-language, Playboy-branded, non-feature film, non-television
     movie home video programs then-currently in distribution in the United
     States and that have been in distribution in the United States on home
     videocassette for more than twelve (12) months (including the "EDEN" and
     "INSIDE OUT" programs), whether or not such twelve (12) months occur before
     or during the Term for such programs (the "Catalog Programs"). In this
     regard, twelve (12) months and one (1) day after the initial release in the
     United States under the Agreement of a New Release Program, such New
     Release Program shall automatically become a Catalog Program, if the Term
     for Catalog Programs has not expired by that time.

4.  Uni Fees.
    ---------

     (a) Commencing March 26, 1995, Uni shall be entitled to retain from "gross
     revenues" (as defined in Section 5 of the Agreement) for the New Release
     Programs and the Catalog Programs distributed under the Agreement a sum
     equal to fifteen percent (15%) of the "net invoiced sales" (as defined in
     Section 5 of the Agreement) for the New Release Programs and the Catalog
     Programs (the "Distribution Fees"). The Distribution Fee is inclusive of
     any Uni overhead charge, shipping or freight charges from Uni's warehouse
     or distribution facility, allowances or compensation for bad debts, and any
     other expenses or deductions from gross revenues not specifically allowed
     under the Agreement as

                                       2

<PAGE>

    amended by this Amendment.  Commencing March 26, 1995, the Distribution Fee
    supersedes the fees under Section 4 of the Agreement.

    (b)  Commencing March 26, 1995, Playboy shall have the right to purchase
    from Uni for Playboy's "direct response marketing sales" under Section 11 of
    the Agreement duplicated and packaged videocassette copies of any program
    that is a Catalog Program at the time of purchase.  Playboy's purchase price
    for such copies of the applicable program shall be the cost to Uni of
    purchasing copies of the applicable program for Playboy, in accordance with
    Paragraph 5 below, free on board Uni's United States distribution facility,
    plus a per unit processing fee of Eight Cents ($.08).  Commencing March 26,
    1995, Playboy also shall pay to Uni a per-unit processing fee of Eight Cents
    ($.08) for each unit of a New Release Program that Playboy requests Uni ship
    from Uni's United States distribution facility for Playboy's direct response
    marketing sales.

5.  Uni Purchase of Catalog Program Inventory/Manufacturing.
    --------------------------------------------------------

    (a)  For all Catalog Programs existing on March 26, 1995, Uni shall purchase
    from Playboy (i) Playboy's inventory of finished videocassettes that are in
    Uni's warehouses or other possession or control, and (ii) a portion of
    Playboy's videocassette sleeve inventory already selected by Uni, both as
    listed in Exhibit A to this Amendment.  The purchase price for such
    inventory shall be Playboy's actual out-of-pocket costs (as indicated in
    Exhibit A), free on board Uni's United States distribution facility. 
    Playboy shall calculate its actual out-of-pocket costs for inventory under
    this Amendment at the average charge to Playboy by Playboy's duplicating
    facility for such inventory.  Uni shall pay Playboy the total purchase price
    for such inventory in two (2) equal installments, the first payable on or
    before May 1, 1995, and the second payable on or before July 1, 1995.  Uni
    also shall pay all costs of repackaging, adding or changing logos and other
    changes to any of the inventory purchased from Playboy, if any.

    (b)  Whenever a New Release Program becomes a Catalog Program during the
    Term for Catalog Programs, Uni also shall purchase from Playboy the lesser
    of (i) all copies, or (ii) a one (1) year's supply of copies based on past
    sales, or Playboy's then-existing inventory of finished videocassettes and
    videocassette sleeves for the applicable Catalog Program at Playboy's actual
    out-of-pocket costs, free on board Uni's United States distribution
    facility.  In this regard, the current average unit cost to Playboy for a
    finished videocassette is approximately Two Dollars and Twenty-Five Cents
    ($2.25) for each sixty (60) minute videocassette.  Furthermore, Exhibit B to
    this Amendment lists the videocassette sleeve inventory to be purchased by
    Uni over

                                       3
<PAGE>

    approximately the first year of the Term for Catalog Programs, and the cost
    thereof.  For finished videocasettes, Playboy shall notify Uni of the amount
    of such inventory to be purchased and the cost thereof at least one (1)
    month prior to the date that the applicable New Release Program is scheduled
    to become a Catalog Program.  Uni shall pay Playboy for such Catalog Program
    inventory by adding the cost thereof to the monthly payment to Playboy of
    Playboy's share of gross revenues for the New Release Programs, in
    accordance with subparagraph 6(a) below, for the payment due in the month
    that the applicable New Release Program becomes a Catalog Program.  To the
    extent that Playboy's then-existing inventory for such program exceeds a one
    (1) year's supply, Uni shall store the extra copies for Playboy and purchase
    from Playboy such extra copies at Playboy's actual out-of-pocket costs,
    prior to duplicating additional copies.

    (c)  For all Catalog Programs, including for a New Release Program that
    becomes a Catalog Program during the Term for Catalog Programs, Uni shall
    bear all costs and responsibilities of any kind in connection with the
    manufacture, packaging, distribution, advertising or marketing of such
    Catalog Program.  In this regard, Uni shall have the right either to (i) to
    manufacture and package its own copies of a Catalog Program, using the
    videotape masters and other master materials furnished by Playboy, subject
    to Playboy's approval of the manner and quality of duplication and
    packaging, or (ii) utilize inventory copies of such Catalog Program
    purchased from Playboy.  For all Catalog Programs, Playboy shall furnish to
    Uni the videotape masters and artwork necessary to duplicate finished
    videocassettes.  At the end of the Term for Catalog Programs, Uni shall
    return all such materials to Playboy, at Playboy's expense.

    (d)  During the Term for New Release Programs, Playboy shall supply Uni,
    free on board Uni's United States distribution facility, with duplicated and
    packaged videocassettes suitable for bulk packaging and shipping of all New
    Release Programs for so long as such program remains a New Release Program.

    (e)  Upon the termination of the Term for Catalog Programs, Uni will notify
    Playboy of all existing inventory of videocassettes and videocassette
    sleeves for the then-Catalog Programs, on a program by program basis. 
    Within ten (10) days of Playboy's receipt of Uni's notice, Playboy shall
    notify Uni of the amount of such inventory, on a program by program basis,
    that Playboy desires to purchase from Uni.  Playboy's purchase price shall
    be calculated based on the average unit cost for the corresponding program
    or sleeve, as applicable, paid by Uni to Playboy to purchase Playboy's
    inventory of the same program or sleeve, as appplicable, pursuant to
    subparagraph 5(a) or 5(b) above.  Playboy shall be obligated to purchase
    from Uni a dollar amount of such inventory equal to the lesser of (i) the
    total purchase price for all of the


                                       4
<PAGE>
     
    then-remaining Catalog Program and sleeve inventory, or (ii) the aggregate
    of all sums paid by Uni to Playboy to purchase Playboy's inventory of
    Catalog Programs and sleeves during the Term for Catalog Programs pursuant
    to subparagraphs 5(a) and 5(b) above, except that for each program for which
    Uni manufactures copies or sleeves in addition to purchasing Playboy's
    inventory pursuant to subparagraph 5(a) or 5(b) above, Playboy's repurchase
    obligation for the manufactured copies and sleeves shall be limited to such
    number of copies and sleeves that Playboy has reasonably advised Uni to
    manufacture.  Uni shall destroy all Catalog Program inventory and sleeves
    not purchased by Playboy and deliver to Playboy a certificate of destruction
    for such inventory.  Playboy's inventory repurchase obligation pursuant to
    this subparagraph 5(e), but no other obligation under the Agreement, as
    amended by this Amendment, is guaranteed by Playboy's parent corporation,
    Playboy Enterprises, Inc., as evidenced by the execution of this Amendment
    on behalf of Playboy Enterprises, Inc. on the signature page of this
    Amendment.

6.  Playboy's Share of Gross Revenues.
    ----------------------------------
   
    (a) Uni shall report to Playboy on a monthly basis all gross revenues from
    the New Release Programs for the previous month, and pay to Playboy all
    amounts remaining after first deducting from such gross revenues the
    Distribution Fee, Market Development Funds and other deductions previously
    approved by Playboy in writing for the applicable units, in accordance with
    Section 19 of the Agreement.

    (b) Uni shall report to Playboy on a monthly basis all gross revenues from
    the Catalog Programs for the previous month, and pay to Playboy all amounts
    remaining after first deducting from such gross revenues the following for
    the applicable units:

        (i) Actual returns, in accordance with Section 19 of the Agreement.

        (ii) A five percent (5%) reserve against returns, which reserve shall be
        liquidated and reconciled to actual returns on a monthly basis, in
        accordance with Section 19 of the Agreement.

        (iii) Program and volume discounts approved by Playboy, in accordance
        with the Agreement.

        (iv) The cost to Uni of each unit of the Catalog Programs sold,
        calculated at the unit cost for the purchase of a unit of the applicable
        program from Playboy, in accordance with subparagraph 5(a) or 5(b)
        above.


                                       5
<PAGE>

      (v) The actual out-of-pocket costs paid by Uni to market the Catalog
      Programs for such month, such costs to be subject to Playboy's prior
      written approval.

      (vi) Uni's Distribution Fee.

      (vii) With respect to each of the first and second contract years of the
      Term for Catalog Programs, the then-unrecouped amount of the "Advance" for
      the then-current contract year of the Term for Catalog Programs (but no
      other contract year of the Term) paid to Playboy pursuant to Paragraph 7
      below, and with respect only to the third contract year of the Term for
      Catalog Programs, the then-unrecouped amount of the total "Advances" for
      all contract years of the Term for Catalog Programs paid to Playboy
      pursuant to Paragraph 7 below. In this regard, if by the end of the
      unextended Term for Catalog Programs, Uni has not recouped the total
      amount of the "Advances" for all contract years of the Term for Catalog
      Programs paid to Playboy pursuant to Paragraph 7 below, then at Playboy's
      election, either (A) the Term for Catalog Programs only, but not for New
      Release Programs, shall be extended for three (3) months; or (B) Playboy
      shall refund to Uni the then-unrecouped amount of such total "Advances"
      paid to Playboy, as of the end of the unextended Term for Catalog
      Programs. Playboy shall make its election within ten (10) days following
      Uni's report to Playboy that Uni will be unrecouped at the end of the
      unextended Term for Catalog Programs.

7. Catalog Program Advances. Uni shall pay to Playboy the following
non-returnable, but recoupable advances (the "Advances") against Playboy's share
of gross revenues for the Catalog Programs for a particular contract year of
the Term for Catalog Programs, as follows:

   (a) For the first contract year of the Term for Catalog Programs, commencing
   March 26, 1995, the sum of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
   ($1,500,000), payable on or before May 1, 1995 (the "First Year Advance").

   (b) For the second contract year of the Term for Catalog Programs, commencing
   March 26, 1996, the sum of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
   ($1,500,000), not reduced by any unrecouped portion of the First Year
   Advance, payable on or before March 26, 1996 (the "Second Year Advance").

   (c) For the third contract year of the Term for Catalog Programs, commencing
   March 26, 1997, the sum of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
   ($1,500,000), reduced by the total unrecouped amount of the First Year
   Advance and the Second Year Advance as of March 25, 1997, to a maximum 100%
   reduction (the "Third Year Advance"). The Third Year Advance shall be payable
   on or before April 30, 1997.


                                       6
<PAGE>

No sums payable to Playboy in connection with the New Release Programs may be
used to reduce the amount of gross revenues payable to Playboy in connection
with the Catalog Programs. Similarly, no portion of any Advance may be used to
reduce the amount of gross revenues payable to Playboy in connection with the
New Release Programs or may be applied towards any payment for Playboy's
inventory.

8. Formats. Commencing March 26, 1995, Section 10 of the Agreement, regarding
formats, no longer shall apply, and instead the only authorized formats under
the Agreement shall be as follows:

     (a) One-half inch (1/2") VHS videocassettes.

     (b) Linear, non-interactive, digital videodiscs, including DVD (but
     excluding CD-I, CD-ROM, SEGA-CD, 3DO, all analog laserdiscs and all
     interactive formats that allow the consumer more interactivity than
     selecting stop/start/fast forward/reverse/freeze frame/slow motion and the
     like). However, prior to distribution of any New Release Program or Catalog
     Program in the Toshiba DVD format, Uni and Playboy mutually shall determine
     an objective standard, in terms of hardware and/or software sales or other
     objective measurable criteria, to determine when the DVD format has become
     a commercially viable consumer format in the industry. If during the Term
     for New Release Programs or Catalog Programs the Sony DVD format reaches
     such objective standard of commercial viability and Uni does not commence
     to release all programs that are released in the Toshiba DVD format also in
     the Sony DVD format, all of Uni's rights under the Agreement, as amended
     by this Amendment, to distribute New Release Programs and Catalog Programs
     in the Sony DVD format shall revert back to Playboy. Following such
     reversion, Playboy shall have the unrestricted right to license to one or
     more third parties the right to distribute all of such programs in the Sony
     DVD format.

     (c) Only following the expiration of Playboy's analog laserdisc
     distribution agreement with Image Entertainment, Inc., including any
     extensions or renewals thereof (the "Image Agreement"), twelve inch (12")
     analog, non-interactive laserdiscs ("Analog Laserdiscs"), on the condition
     that within ten (10) days of Playboy's notice to Uni of the expiration of
     the Image Agreement, Uni elects in writing for a period of one (1) year,
     with successive one (1) year renewal periods (or portions of a year for the
     last year) by mutual agreement until the end of the Term for Catalog
     Programs, to include such Analog Laserdiscs as a format under the
     Agreement. If Uni makes such election, then Uni shall distribute all New
     Release Programs and all Catalog Programs in the Analog Laserdisc format,
     and during each one (1) year period and renewal period Uni shall pay to
     Playboy a nonreturnable but recoupable advance of Fifteen Thousand Dollars
     ($15,000) for each program


                                       7

<PAGE>
      that is then or subsequently is released as a New Release Program. Each
      advance shall be recoupable against a royalty on all unit sales of Analog
      Laserdiscs of all New Release Programs and all Catalog Programs equal to
      forty percent (40%) of the actual wholesale sales price of each such copy
      sold, cross-collateralized among all sales during the applicable year (or
      portion thereof) of Analog Laserdisc copies of all programs, but not
      against any other revenue or payment or sales in any other year. All other
      provisions regarding the Analog Laserdiscs shall be negotiated in good
      faith.
     
9.  Sales and Marketing Spending; Exclusive Window Deals. Section 8 of the
Agreement, regarding sales and marketing spending, and Section 12 of the
Agreement, regarding exclusive window arrangements, shall apply only to the New
Release Programs.

10. Provisions Applicable to New Release Programs and Catalog Programs. The
following Sections of the Agreement shall apply to both the New Release Programs
and the Catalog Programs:

    (a) Section 7, regarding release schedule.

    (b) Section 9, regarding pricing. In this regard, Uni shall sell all
    programs at Playboy's suggested retail and wholesale price points, but
    Playboy and Uni periodically shall agree to reduce the prices of selected
    Catalog Programs in order to reduce the inventory of such Catalog Programs,
    the particular titles and price reductions to be subject to mutual approval.
    Similarly, after Playboy fully has exploited the sale of the "EDEN"
    programs for rental distribution through Blockbuster Video, Playboy and Uni
    shall agree to reduce the price of such "EDEN" programs to a mutually
    approved sell-through price.

    (c) Section 11, regarding direct response marketing.

    (d) Section 13, regarding sponsorships and premium arrangements.

    (e) Section 14, regarding newsstand accounts.

    (f) Section 15, regarding marketing and sales planning and execution.

    (g) Section 16, regarding physical distribution, provided that Playboy will
    provide Uni with certain materials for New Release Programs only until such
    programs become Catalog Programs, in accordance with subparagraph 5(d)
    above.

    (h) Section 17, regarding credit and collection.

    (i) Section 18, regarding sales shipments reporting.

    (j) Section 20, regarding the non-compete understanding, and in the event of
    a cancellation thereunder, all distribution

                                       8
<PAGE>

     rights and materials associated with the New Release Programs and/or the
     Catalog Programs shall fully revert to Playboy, and there shall be no sell-
     off period as provided in Paragraph 1 above. Furthermore, upon such a
     cancellation, (i) the provisions of subparagraph 5(a) above, regarding
     Playboy's inventory repurchase obligation, shall apply, (ii) Uni shall have
     no further right to recoup any of the Advances paid to Playboy, and (iii)
     Uni shall have no further obligation to pay to Playboy any Advances for any
     year of the Term for Catalog Programs commencing after the date of
     cancellation.

     (k) Section 21, regarding arbitration.

     (l) Section 22, regarding trademark protection, including the Exhibit A to
     the Agreement.

     (m) Section 23, regarding assignment.

     (n) Section 24, regarding a binding agreement and other miscellaneous
     matters.

11. Inconsistencies. In the event of any inconsistencies between the provisions
of this Amendment and the Agreement, the provisions of this Amendment shall
control.

12. Precondition to Effectiveness. At Playboy's sole election, this Amendment
shall have no force or effect, and the Agreement shall terminate on June 19,
1995, pursuant to Playboy's termination notice dated December 19, 1994, unless
Uni (or a Uni affiliate) and Playboy enter into and execute a written agreement
regarding Playboy's right to "put" to Uni (or a Uni affiliate) up to three (3)
feature motion pictures for distribution by Uni (or a Uni affiliate) in the
United States, Canada and Mexico, for a non-refundable, but recoupable cash
advance of Four Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($450,000) for a Playboy-branded
feature, or Three Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000) for a
non-Playboy-branded feature, against all gross revenues for the feature, less a
distribution fee of 17.5% and reasonable distribution costs. If the parties are
unable to conclude and execute such an agreement, then if Playboy elects in its
sole discretion, by giving Uni written notice of such election on or before
April 28, 1995, this Amendment shall be deemed null and void, and Playboy shall
be free to enter into distribution agreements for the New Release Programs
and/or the Catalog Programs with one or more third parties for the period
commencing June 20, 1995, without any obligation to Uni in connection therewith.

Except as set forth in this Amendment, the Agreement is not otherwise modified
in any respect, and the Agreement, as



                                       9

supplemented and amended by this Amendment, is ratified and confirmed.

please so indicate by signing this Amendment in the appropriate space provided
