ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

         On April 29, 2003,  eB2B Commerce,  Inc. (the  "Company")  received the
balance of the proceeds  held in escrow in connection  with the Company's  prior
financing  (the   "Financing")   which  initially   closed  in  July  2002.  All
subscription proceeds from the Financing, aggregating $1,200,000, were initially
held in escrow  pursuant to the Escrow  Agreement by and between the Company and
the escrow agent (the "Escrow  Agreement")  and thereafter  released as follows:
$350,000 was released to the Company upon the initial  closing of the  Financing
on July 15, 2002,  $275,000  was released to the Company on September  11, 2002,
$275,000 was released to the Company on November 4, 2002, and the balance of the
proceeds  held in escrow was  released  to the  Company on April 29, 2003 as set
forth above.  As a result of the Financing,  the Company has issued an aggregate
of  $1,200,000  principal  amount of  five-year 7% senior  subordinated  secured
convertible notes.

         The release of funds from  escrow  triggered  anti-dilution  provisions
affecting the conversion price of certain notes issued in the Company's  private
placement in January 2002, Series B preferred stock and Series C preferred stock
and  the  exercise  price  of  and  number  of  shares  issuable  under  various
outstanding warrants.
