ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.

      On December 7, 2000, the Company executed an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) dated as of January 7, 2000, among iXL Enterprises, Inc., the lenders party thereto, and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as administrative agent.

      The Amendment effectuates the waiver by the requisite lenders of the Company’s prior default under the Credit Agreement. Among other items, the Amendment amends the Credit Agreement to:

    restrict the borrowing base to qualified billed accounts receivable from domestic operations
 
    permit the sale by the Company of equity interests forming part of the collateral securing iXL’s obligations under the Credit Agreement;
 
    reduce the amount of permitted capital expenditures;
 
    reduce the required minimum consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement); and
 
    require the Company to maintain a minimum level of liquidity (as further described in the Amendment).

      Additionally, on December 19, 2000, the Company consummated a transaction with ProAct Technologies Corp. (“ProAct”) in which iXL Ventures PHC, Inc., an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued debt instruments to ProAct in exchange for a cash payment of $20 million, which was in turn transferred by dividend to iXL, Inc., a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The debt is secured by and exchangeable for (upon satisfaction of certain conditions) 10 million shares of the common stock of ProAct held by iXL Ventures PHC, Inc. In addition, ProAct obtained call rights with respect to 10 million shares of the common stock of ProAct held by iXL Ventures, L.P. The debt is also secured by a limited recourse guaranty by iXL Ventures, L.P.
