VCG Holding Corp. (AMEX: PTT)("VCG"), a leading owner, operator and
consolidator of adult nightclubs, announced it has successfully
restructured the dividend and conversion rate of its $9.47 million
of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Specifically, the Series A
preferred stockholders of the Company voted to reduce (i) the
annual dividend rate from 18% to 10%, and (ii) the conversion price
from $4.00 to $2.50 per share. The restructuring was finalized on
September 16, 2005, by vote of the Series A preferred stockholders.
Of the total 947,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding
as of September 16, 2005, 725,500 shares, (approximately 76.6%),
voted for the foregoing proposals. Troy H. Lowrie, Chairman and CEO
of VCG Holding commented: "We are excited that we reached this
important milestone in improving our capitalization. The reduction
of the dividend rate paid on the preferred stock is expected to
save VCG approximately $757,600 in cash during the twelve month
period after September 24, 2005, increasing net income to the
common shareholders by approximately $.09 per share. Even taking
into account the incremental increase in the issuances of the
common stock shares associated with lowering the conversion rate,
the transaction is still accretive to the VCG common shareholders.
We plan to continue to look for opportunities to strengthen our
balance sheet while seeking to make strategic acquisitions of
nightclubs." About VCG Holding Corp. VCG Holding Corp. is an owner,
