MPTV Receives Loan Documents and Opens Escrow on $13.44 M Construction Loan

IRVINE, Calif., Jan. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MPTV, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: MPTT), an innovator in Timeshare Resort Development,
today announced that it has received closing loan documents from its lender,
International Commercial Finance (ICF), for a $13.44 million construction loan
that is scheduled to close on or before February 8, 2002.
MPTV has opened escrow on the loan. The loan documents are currently
under review by MPTV's attorneys and will be submitted to escrow shortly.
"This completion of the loan funding is a major step in our Phase I
planning. Upon selection of the contractor, these funds will provide for
renovations of the 48 units in Phase I and give us the infrastructure
necessary to register for our public permit for sale of timeshares with the
State of Nevada. Once the public permit is granted by the State of Nevada we
will begin timeshare marketing and sales. Having already completed the design
and permitting for Phase I will enable us to begin construction immediately.
We are happy to be moving ahead and on schedule with ICF to close this loan,"
stated MPTV's CEO, Mr. Hurley Reed.
Mr. Howard Seidman of Bolton Capital added, "Having worked closely with
ICF to get the loan documents to MPTV, I am now in touch with MPTV's and ICF's
attorneys. We are working to expedite approvals and submit the documents to
escrow so closing can be completed by February 8th of this year. The receipt
of these loan docs and the opening of escrow is definitely a major milestone
towards closing and funds disbursement."
The loan will be used for construction of Phase I of MPTV's Lake Trop
property in Las Vegas. Phase I comprises of the conversion, remodeling, and
sales of Lake Trop timeshares. The current Lake Trop property will be
converted into a world-class timeshare resort through both the remodeling of
the existing structures and major property enhancements.
