ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.
The class of securities to which this statement relates is the common
stock, par value $.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of eB2B Commerce, Inc.
(the "Company"). The Company's principal executive offices are located at 665
Broadway, New York, New York 10012.
Certain shares of Common Stock that are the subject of this statement
are issuable (i) upon exercise of warrants issued in a bridge private financing
in October 1999 (the "Bridge Warrants"); (ii) upon conversion of shares of the
Company's convertible Series B Preferred Stock (the "B Preferred Shares"),
issued in a private placement in December 1999 (the "B Preferred Offering");
(iii) upon exercise of warrants issued as part of the B Preferred Offering (the
"December 1999 Warrants"); (iv) upon exercise of Series C Preferred Stock (the
"C Preferred Shares") that were issued upon the automatic conversion of
convertible notes issued in a private placement in May 2001 (the "May Note
Offering"); (v) upon exercise of warrants issued as part of the May Note
Offering (the "2001 Warrants"); (vi) upon exercise of warrants (the "December
2001 Warrants") issued as part of a private placement of convertible notes in
December 2001 (the "December Note Offering"); (vii) upon conversion of
convertible notes (the "January 2002 Notes") issued in a private placement in
January 2002 (the "January 2002 Note Offering"); (viii) upon exercise of
warrants issued as part of the January 2002 Note Offering (the "2002 Warrants");
and (ix) upon conversion of convertible notes (the "Subsequent 2002 Notes")
issued in a private placement that initially closed in July 2002 (the
"Subsequent 2002 Note Offering"). The Bridge Warrants, December 1999 Warrants,
2001 Warrants, December 2001 Warrants, and 2002 Warrants are sometimes referred
to herein as "Warrants." In connection with the Subsequent 2002 Note Offering,
all subscription proceeds were held in escrow by the escrow agent for the
benefit of the holders of the Subsequent 2002 Notes pending acceptance of
subscriptions by the Company and were and are to be disbursed as provided in the
Escrow Agreement between the Company and the escrow agent (the "Escrow
Agreement"). On July 15, 2002, proceeds of $72,917 relating to Priddy's
subscription were released to the Company and the remaining proceeds continued
to be held in escrow (the "Retained Proceeds"). Of the Retained Proceeds,
$57,292 relating to Priddy's subscription was released to the Company on each of
September 11, 2002 and November 4, 2002, and $62,499 relating to Priddy's
subscription remains in escrow. As provided in the Escrow Agreement, the
Retained Proceeds remaining in escrow will be disbursed as directed by Priddy,
who is the representative of the holders of the Subsequent 2002 Notes, or, upon
request of the Company, after reducing its liabilities, existing as of June 18,
2002, through negotiation with creditors. Subsequent 2002 Notes were issued on
each of July 15, 2002, September 11, 2002 and November 4, 2002 related to the
proceeds released from escrow on such dates. Subsequent 2002 Notes have not been
issued in respect of the Retained Proceeds remaining in escrow, but will be
issued if and when such Retained Proceeds, or any portion thereof, are released
to the Company.
The consummation of the merger in April 2000 of eB2B Commerce, Inc., a
Delaware corporation, with and into the Company, and the May Note Offering,
December Note Offering, January 2002 Note Offering and Subsequent 2002 Note
Offering, as well as penalties for not having an effective registration
statement with respect to certain of these securities, resulted in adjustments
4
to the conversion and exercise prices, as applicable, of the B Preferred Stock,
C Preferred Stock and certain of the Warrants, and corresponding adjustments to
the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion and exercise of
such securities. All such adjustments are reflected in this statement on
Schedule 13D. In addition, this statement on Schedule 13D reflects the 1 for 15
reverse stock split of the Common Stock effected by the Company in January 2002.
Information required to be disclosed herein regarding the Bridge
Warrants, B Preferred Shares, December 1999 Warrants, C Preferred Shares, 2001
Warrants, December 2001 Warrants, January 2002 Notes and 2002 Warrants was
previously disclosed in the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned on May 31,
2000, as amended on September 6, 2001 and March 22, 2002, together with
