This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D originally filed on June 25, 2003, by InterActiveCorp, a Delaware corporation formerly known as USA Interactive (“IAC”) and Ticketmaster, a Delaware corporation, and a wholly owned subsidiary of IAC (“Ticketmaster”).
|
Item 1. |

Item 3. |
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration |
|
|
|
|
Ticketmaster has been the beneficial owner and record holder of the Common Stock since September, 1999. With respect to such ownership Ticketmaster has previously filed a Schedule 13G, pursuant to Rule 13d-1(d). Ticketmaster purchased the shares of Common Stock in exchange for $5.25 million in cash (from its working capital) and other consideration consisting of a multi-year joint auction services agreement and a licensing agreement for the use of the technology of CityAuction, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Ticketmaster. The licensing agreement and the joint auction services agreement together were valued at $10.5 million. The total consideration paid to the Company was valued at $15.75 million at the time of the purchase of the Common Stock. No funds of IAC or Mr. Diller were used to purchase the shares of Common Stock. |

The acquisition, which is subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the third quarter of 2003. |
|
|
|
|
|
In connection with the proposed Acquisition, Ticketmaster and eBay entered into a voting agreement on June 20, 2003 (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to the Agreement, at any meeting of the stockholders of the Company and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of the Company, unless otherwise directed by eBay, Ticketmaster agreed, on or after July 5, 2003, to vote the Common Stock owned by Ticketmaster in favor of the Acquisition and against any transaction, proposal, or other actions that may impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or otherwise adversely affect the Acquisition. Contemporaneously with the execution of the Agreement, Ticketmaster delivered to eBay an irrevocable proxy effective on or after July 5, 2003 with respect to all of the Common Stock held by Ticketmaster and agreed to deliver an additional irrevocable proxy signed by the record owner of any outstanding shares of Common Stock that are beneficially owned but not of record by Ticketmaster. |
