             THE PRODUCERS ENTERTAINMENT GROUP LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

                                December 31, 1997

(1)     Basis of Presentation

        As disclosed in the Form 8-K filed November 3, 1997 and Form 8-KA filed
December 29, 1997, on October 20, 1997, the Company acquired 100% of the
outstanding capital stock of three entities comprising the "Grosso Jacobson
Companies" (including Grosso Jacobson Productions, Inc., Grosso Jacobson
Entertainment Corporation, and Grosso Jacobson Music Company, Inc) through the
merger of three wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company into the Grosso
Jacobson Companies. The Grosso Jacobson Companies are engaged in the business of
developing and producing entertainment products including television movies and
series. The consideration paid by the Company to the sole shareholders of the
Grosso Jacobson Companies pursuant to the merger was paid through the issuance
of 6,666,666 shares of the Company's Common Stock valued at an issue price of
$1.20 per share.

The mergers of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries into the Grosso Jacobson
Companies for Common Stock of the Company has been recorded, for financial
statement reporting purposes, as a pooling of interests.

        The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such
information reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results
of operations for the periods presented. The information contained in this Form
10-QSB should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements filed
as part of the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997.

(2)     Dividend on Series A Preferred Stock

        During the six months ended December 31, 1997, the Company paid $106,250
in cash for the dividend required to be paid on the Series A Preferred Stock for
the quarter ended June 30, 1997. As of the date of this report, the Company has
issued shares of its Common Stock equivalent at fair market value to $212,500,
representing the $106,250 dividend required to be paid on the Series A Preferred
Stock for the each of the quarters ended September 30, 1997 and December 31,
1997.

(3)     Income Per Share

        Income per share for the three month and six month periods has been
computed after deducting the dividend requirements of the Series A Preferred
Stock. It is based on the weighted average number of common and common
equivalent shares reported outstanding during the entire period ending on
December 31, 1997.

(4)     Stock Options and Warrants

        The Company uses APB Opinion No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" to calculate the compensation expense related to the grant of options
to purchase Common Stock under the intrinsic value method. Accordingly, the
Company makes no adjustments to its compensation expense or equity accounts for
the grant of options. The Company has made no grant of options for the period
ended December 31, 1997. At December 31, 1997 there are 765,251 options
outstanding at exercise prices ranging from $1.12 per share to $13.00 per share
of Common Stock.





                                       7

        In addition to the 4,600,000 Redeemable Warrants exercisable at $1.75
per share of Common Stock issued in connection with the September 1996 public
offering, there are approximately 927,554 other outstanding warrants. As part of
a June 1996 private placement of $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 10%
promissory notes ("Bridge Notes"), 500,000 "Bridge Warrants" were issued. Upon
repayment of the Bridge Notes in September 1996, the Bridge Warrants were
automatically exchanged for 500,000 Redeemable Warrants exercisable at $1.75 per
share. The Company has other existing warrants outstanding to purchase an
aggregate of 427,554 shares of Common Stock at prices ranging from $7.70 to
$14.40 per share. There were a total of approximately 5,527,554 warrants
outstanding as of December 31, 1997.

(5)     Related Party Transactions

        In November 1995, the Company sold an aggregate of 525,000 shares of its
Common Stock to related parties, at a purchase price of $2.00 per share, in
exchange for an aggregate of $1,050,000 principal amount of promissory notes.
500,000 of these shares were sold to Mountaingate Productions, LLC.
("Mountaingate"), a California corporation that provides the Company with
producer services of its Chief Executive Officer and others. The remaining
25,000 shares were sold to a former officer and Director of the Company.

As of June 30, 1997 the agreement with Mountaingate was terminated and the stock
returned to the Company. Mountaingate has agreed to pay the Company the 25%
maximum recourse liability ($50,631) accrued interest at June 30, 1997, and the
balance of $129,142 was written off as of June 30, 1997.

At June 30, 1997, the Company foreclosed on the 25,000 shares of common stock
issued to the former officer and Director due to nonpayment of principal and
interest. The note balance including $4,000 of interest has been written off as
of June 30, 1997 and the 25,000 shares of common stock have been cancelled.
