On November 10, 2006, Metromedia International Group, Inc. (the
"Company") announced that the Company is unable to timely file its Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006 (the "2006

The filing with the SEC of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 ("2004 Form 10-K"), its Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, June 30, and September 30,
2005 (the "2005 Quarterly Reports"), its Annual Report of Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 ("2005 Form 10-K") and its Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2006 (the "2006
Quarterly Reports" and collectively, the "Periodic Reports"), along with the
Company's completion of its work effort for compliance with Section 404,
"Management Assessment of Internal Controls" of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
with respect to the filing of its 2005 Form 10-K, are a prerequisite for the
filing of the 2006 Q3 Form 10-Q.
At present, the Company cannot predict with confidence when it will
file the Periodic Reports and thus its 2006 Q3 Form 10-Q.
