This Amendment No. 1 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on November 13, 1997 (the "Schedule 13D") by
Desktop Data, Inc. ("Desktop") and Michael E. Kolowich, Joseph A. Amram, Burr,
Egan, Deleage & Co., Marino R. Polestra, Elon Kohlberg, James D. Daniell,
William A. Devereaux, Robert L. Lentz, Gregory S. Stanger, Jeffery S. Galt,
Microsoft Corporation and the Dialog Corporation (formerly Knight-Ridder
Information, Inc.) (collectively the "Reporting Persons") with respect to the
shares of common stock, par value $0.01 (the "Issuer Common Stock"), of
Individual, Inc. (the "Issuer").
This Amendment No. 1 is filed with respect to the Issuer Common Stock on
behalf of Desktop and the Reporting Persons who, immediately prior to February
24, 1998, beneficially owned shares of Issuer Common Stock. Desktop beneficially
owned Issuer Common Stock due to the Stock Option Agreement, dated November 2,
1997 between Desktop and the Issuer, as described in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D.
The Reporting Persons beneficially owned Issuer Common Stock subject to the
voting and disposition restrictions set forth in the Participation Agreement,
dated November 3, 1997 and the Affiliate Agreement dated November 3, 1997,
respectively, each between the Reporting Persons and Desktop. The Participation
Agreement and Affiliate Agreement are also described in Item 4 of the Schedule
13D.
Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the meaning
ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D:
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended in its entirety to read as
follows.
Item 5. Interests in Securities of the Issuer
The merger (the "Merger") of the Issuer with and into Desktop was consummated
on February 24, 1998. The Stock Option granted by the Issuer to Desktop,
pursuant to which Desktop had the right, upon the occurrence of certain events,
to purchase from the Issuer up to 3,249,779 shares of Issuer Common Stock,
terminated at the effective time of the Merger. In addition, the Participation
Agreement, which subjected shares beneficially owned by Reporting Persons to
certain voting restrictions, terminated at the effective time of the Merger.
As a result of the Merger, no shares of the Issuer Common Stock remain
outstanding. Each issued and outstanding share of Issuer Common Stock was
converted into one-half (1/2) of one share of common stock, par value $0.01 per
share, of Desktop, which was renamed as of the effective time of the Merger
"NewsEDGE Corporation."
