ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

      On May 16, 2001, the Company announced that Princeton eCom Corporation
("Princeton") acquired Quicken Bill Manager from Intuit Inc. ("Intuit"). Quicken
Bill Manager provides online bill presentment and payment services by processing
payments for customers utilizing Intuit's Quicken personal financial management
software. The Company currently owns approximately 43.6% of Princeton and
accounts for its investments under equity accounting.

      Under the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, Princeton agreed to acquire
the assets of Intuit's Quicken Bill Manager through the purchase of certain
technologies from Intuit and all of the outstanding shares of Venture Finance
Services Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Intuit. In exchange, Intuit will
receive in February 2002, at Princeton's election, either an equity stake in
Princeton equivalent to approximately 21 percent of Princeton's outstanding
shares measured shortly after the transaction closes or cash. If elected, the
cash payment would be made as a lump-sum payment in February 2002 equal to the
value of the equity stake at that time, or in four annual installments, each
equal in amount to the value of one-fourth of the equity stake at the time the
payment is made.

ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS

            filed by amendment as soon as practicable but in no event later than

     (b)    Pro Forma Financial Information

                  It is impractical to provide the required pro forma financial

            financial information will be filed by amendment as soon as
            practicable but in no event later than 60 days following the date on
            which this Report must be filed.
