Item 5. Other Events.

     On October 18, 1999, Tarek Kirschen and Stephen Landau, who together owned
14,175,000 shares of the 18,025,000 issued and outstanding shares of
Merchantonline.com, Inc. (the "Company") agreed to convert 13,000,000 of these
shares into shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors of
Merchantonline.com, Inc. approved a resolution creating the Series A Preferred
Stock, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this report.

     The conversion was completed on the advice of the Company's financial
advisors. The result of this conversion is to lower the number of shares of
outstanding common stock from 18,025,000 shares to 5,025,000 shares, of which
3,275,000 shares are currently restricted and not eligible for trading and of
which 1,750,000 shares are freely tradable.

     The 13,000,000 shares of Common Stock were converted into 13,000 shares of
Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible
into Common Stock upon the earliest of: (1) any merger of the Company with or
into any other Company or other entity or person, or an other corporate
reorganization in which the Company shall not be the continuing or surviving
entity of such merger or reorganization or any transaction or series of related
transactions by the Company in which in excess of 50% of the Company's voting
power is transferred;

     (2)  a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets
          of the Company; or

     (3)  October 18, 2002.

     If in any fiscal year prior to October 18, 2002 the Company's revenues are
at least $5 million, an aggregate of 2,600 shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
pro rata among all holders, shall automatically be converted into shares of
Common Stock upon filing of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

     Each share of Series A Preferred Stock has 1,000 votes and votes as a class
with the Common Stock.

     The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $1.00 per
share and will get annual dividends of 5% or $.05 per share.
