Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On May 4, 2001, CyberCash, Inc. (“CyberCash”) consummated the sale of its operating assets. Pursuant to a joint bid made at a bankruptcy court-approved auction April 12, 2001, CyberCash’s Internet payment services assets were acquired by Verisign, Inc. (“VeriSign”) and CyberCash’s software assets were acquired by First Data Merchant Services Corporation (“First Data”). Proceeds from the sale were $23.9 million including purchase price adjustments.

Excluded from the transaction are CyberCash’s financial assets, including cash on hand and accounts receivables. Also excluded are CyberCash’s interest in CyberCash K.K., its Japanese payment processing joint venture with SoftBank, as well as CyberCash’s investments in Commission Junction, X.com and Outbounder, Inc. (formerly UUCom). CyberCash intends to liquidate these financial assets through subsequent auctions.

In connection with the closing of the sale of its assets, CyberCash changed its name to CYCH, Inc. on May 21, 2001.

Item 3. Bankruptcy or Receivership.

As previously reported on Form 8-K, on March 2, 2001, CyberCash and its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. In re: CyberCash, Inc., et al, Case Nos. 01-00622 (MFW) through 01-00624 (MFW) (Bankr. D. Del.) March 2, 2001. On March 2, 2001, the bankruptcy court ordered that the case be administered jointly with the Office of the United States Trustee.

Also as previously reported on Form 8-K, CyberCash agreed to sell all of its assets to Network 1 Financial Corporation (“Network 1”) pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated March 1, 2001. On March 23, 2001, the bankruptcy court authorized CyberCash to conduct an auction for the sale of all or substantially all of its assets pursuant to the form of the Network 1 Asset Purchase Agreement.

On April 11, 2001, an auction was conducted in which VeriSign and First Data jointly submitted the winning bid. On April 17, 2001, the bankruptcy court authorized CyberCash to consummate the sale of its assets to VeriSign according to a revised Asset Purchase Agreement. The bankruptcy court recognized that VeriSign assigned a portion of the assets to First Data.

As explained in Item 2, on May 4, 2001, CyberCash consummated the sale of its assets.
