Press Release
PayForView.com Regains OTCBB Listing
President Marc Pitcher States NASDAQ Small Cap Listing Intentions
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 9, 2000--PayForView.com (OTC BB:PAYV - news), an entertainment destination site featuring streaming media, announced today that the Company has been re-listed on the OTC Bulletin Board following the National Association of Securities Dealers approval of the application of a key Market Maker for the company's stock.

Since making an announcement regarding clearing Securities and Exchange Commission comments, PayForView.com stock has consistently closed up. To date, the Company's share price has increased over 110% over its opening price on November 1, with collective volume over the last five trading days of 1,169,200 shares.

``We believe news of the re-listing and recent activity in our stock are a precursor of things to come'', said Marc Pitcher, President of PayForView.com. ``We have successfully leapt the regulatory hurdles, and look forward to this rebirth as we move forward with our online business and acquisition strategy. Our goal now is to build shareholder value and move the company towards a NASDAQ listing by increasing the company's asset base and share price over time''.

Applications to the NASD by additional market makers are pending, and expected to clear shortly. A competitive bid/ask on an OTC stock requires at least two market makers. Prior to being de-listed from the OTC, PayForView.com had over 10 market makers competitively trading its stock, with daily volume at times in the millions of shares.

PayForView.com is an integrated on-line and off-line entertainment company that distributes movies, music, sports and live events direct to viewers on a pay-for-view, retail and e-commerce basis. The company has distributed several pay-for-view events and is in the process of acquiring additional content and creating programming for broadcast specifically over the Internet and traditional media. Additionally, the company owns several off-line interests. Turn-Key Entertainment is building an online, pay-per-view industry product that is synergistic with the company's core business. Voyager International Entertainment is currently packaging several motion picture projects for production. Voyager Film Sales is the company's foreign sales division for these projects. Rap and hip-hop music label, Street Solid Records, is distributed through K-Tel Distribution (NASDAQ:KTEL - news).

Certain information included in this communication (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by PayForView) contains statements that are forward looking, such as statements relating to the future anticipated direction of the Internet industry, plans for future expansion, various business development activities, planned capital expenditures, future funding resources, anticipated sales growth and potential contracts.
