ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

     On August 1, 2000, NewsEdge Corporation (the "Company"), Office.com Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Purchaser") and Individual.com, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Individual") entered
into an amendment (the "Amendment") dated as of August 1, 2000 to that certain
stock purchase agreement, dated as of February 18, 2000 (the "Stock Purchase
Agreement"), which provided for the sale by the Company of its remaining 20%
interest in Individual to Office.com, Inc. An initial purchase and sale of 80%
of the Company's ownership interest in Individual occurred on February 18, 2000.
As a result of the Company re-negotiating certain related licensing agreements,
both parties mutually agreed to amend the Stock Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to
the Amendment, the purchase and sale of the remaining 20% interest was completed
on August 1, 2000, rather than February 28, 2001 as originally contemplated by
the Stock Purchase Agreement. Under the terms of the Amendment, the Company will
receive a $3,000,000 payment on September 1, 2000, a $1,000,000 payment on
December 26, 2000 and a final $1,000,000 payment on February 28, 2001. The
purchase price was arrived at after an arms-length negotiation among the
parties.
