FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Mercenary Delivers 11th Volume of Award Winning Series Black Reign

CANOGA PARK, Calif. ‹ Continuing Black Reign into its eleventh volume,
Mercenary Pictures delivers the latest of the award winning series to store
shelves on May 3.

Starring Leah Jaye, Tia Sweets, Delotta Brown, Desiree Diamond, Aleera Flair
and Egypt, the title also features Jean Claude Batiste and three-time AVN
Male Performer of the Year, Mercenary Pictures owner and director of Black
Reign 11, Lexington Steele. The title is also notable as the first occasion
all six ladies in the movie worked with Steele.

Steele said Black Reign 11 brings the same level of production value and
once-in-a-lifetime performances that garnered the line's back-to-back wins
in 2005 and 2006 for AVN's Best Ethnic-Themed Series.

"Presenting ethnic women in a series that's above and beyond what other
gonzo lines in adult are offering is important to us," he added. "While
other companies ignore or short change their ethnic titles, Mercenary's
all-black titles, including Black Moon Risin' and Ebony XXX, are our
flagship titles."

Mercenary's pursuit of excellence extends to all of its productions, Steele
said, through every critically acclaimed director in its roster.

"All of Mercenary's directors -- Tina Tyler, Jimmy Scaffnetti, Marco
Banderas, Don Picone and myself -- are committed to bringing the best adult
entertainment to the fans who value distinct, well-made product," he said.
"Mercenary's strength is in first-rate scenes with performers who can
deliver."
