This was I think the most important paragraph of the S-3 for Net Bot and MatchLogic selling: Sales of a substantial number of shares of Common Stock in the public market following this offering could adversely affect the market price for the Company's Common Stock. The number of shares of Common Stock available for sale in the public market is limited by restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). In addition to the 3,998,258 shares of Common Stock offered hereby, as of February 15, 1998, the Company had outstanding approximately 22,008,290 shares of Common Stock, options to purchase a total of approximately 4,216,424 shares of Common Stock, 1,216,282 shares of Common Stock reserved for future issuance under the Company's stock option and stock purchase plans, warrants to purchase 95,122 shares of Common Stock and a warrant to purchase 325,000 shares of the Company's Series E Preferred Stock. The Company has in effect two shelf Registration Statements with respect to the 2,634,601 shares (as of February 15, 1998) of Common Stock held by AOL (or issuable to AOL upon exercise of a warrant) and with respect to the 2,900,000 shares of Common Stock held by Intuit. Holders of an additional 5,391,273 shares of Common Stock have certain rights to require the Company to register those shares of Common Stock for offer and sale to the public. If such holders, by exercising their registration rights or selling their shares of Common Stock pursuant to an existing registration statement, cause a large number of shares to be registered and sold in the public market, such sales could have a material adverse effect on the market price for the Company's Common Stock.
