SCHEDULE 13D

 

 

Item 1. Security and Issuer

----------------------------

 

This Amendment No. 2 amends the Statement on Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 20, 2006 by Prides Capital Partners, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, Kevin A. Richardson, II, Henry J. Lawlor, Jr., Murray A. Indick, Charles E. McCarthy and Christian Puscasiu. This amendment to the Schedule 13D relates to the shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value (the “Common Stock”) of eDiets.com, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The principal executive office and mailing address of the Issuer is 3801 W. Hillsboro Boulevard, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33442. The following amendments to the Schedule 13D are hereby made. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Scheduled 13D.

 

 

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

----------------------------

 

(a),(b) According to the Issuer’s proxy statement filed on June 23, 2006, there were 23,741,471 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of June 5, 2006. Based on such information, after taking into account the transactions described in Item 5(c) below, the Reporting Persons report beneficial ownership of 10,117,291 shares of Common Stock, representing 42.6% of common stock outstanding, held by Prides Capital Partners, L.L.C. Voting and investment power with respect to 5,273,061 shares are held solely by Prides Capital Partners, L.L.C. As previously disclosed by the Reporting Persons, Mr. David Humble retains voting and investment power with respect to 4,287,136 shares, pending shareholder approval of a transaction described in the initial Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons, but has entered into a Voting Agreement with the Reporting Persons pursuant to which these shares are to be voted in favor of that transaction. Mr. Humble retains voting and investment power with respect to 260,064 shares that are not subject to sale to the Reporting Persons but which are to be voted in favor of that transaction pursuant to the Voting Agreement. In addition, the Reporting Persons expect to acquire an additional 297,030 shares from the Issuer following shareholder approval, again as previously disclosed by the Reporting persons.

 

Although Kevin A. Richardson, II, Henry J. Lawlor, Jr., Murray A. Indick, Charles E. McCarthy and Christian Puscasiu are joining in this Schedule as Reporting Persons, the filing of this Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that any of them are, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities that are beneficially owned by Prides Capital Partners, L.L.C.
