ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

        The name of the filing person is Internet Capital Group, Inc., a

violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or
state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

its collective knowledge and resources. With the goal of holding its partner

time, its interest investment in the Issuer

on the basis of various factors, including but not limited to the Issuer's
business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, synergies
with other partner companies and integration in the network, general economic
and industry conditions, as well as other developments and other acquisition
opportunities. Based upon those considerations, ICG may seek to acquire
