Item 1.01

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously announced, on October 31, 2012, eDiets.com, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with As Seen On TV, Inc., a Florida corporation (“ASTV”), eDiets Acquisition Company, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ASTV (“Merger Sub”), and certain other individuals named therein. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, and the Company will continue as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of ASTV (the “Merger”).

The Merger Agreement requires that ASTV lend the Company $1.5 million (the “Loan”) on terms substantially similar to those set forth in the note issued by the Company to ASTV for $500,000 (the “Original Note”), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 11, 2012. On November 16, 2012, the Company issued a promissory note to ASTV (the “New Note”) pursuant to which the Company will borrow the Loan. Interest accrues on the New Note at a rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, and at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum during the continuance of an event of default. The New Note will mature on the date that is ten business days following the first to occur of the following: (i) the closing date of the Merger Agreement; (ii) March 31, 2013; or (iii) an event of default under the New Note.

All principal and accrued interest is due and payable in full on the maturity date of the New Note. If the maturity date occurs after the closing date of the Merger Agreement, payment will be made through conversion of the New Note into newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock at the same conversion price established in the Merger Agreement for the Merger; otherwise, payment will be made in cash. If the Merger Agreement terminates, ASTV will have the option to convert the New Note into newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.54 per share.

Under the New Note, the Company must comply with a number of covenants, including a covenant to make any payments due under the New Note prior to making payments in respect of indebtedness incurred following November 16, 2012, and a covenant not to incur certain additional indebtedness or grant certain liens over its assets without the prior written consent of ASTV.

In addition, on November 16, 2012, the Company and ASTV entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”), amending the Original Note to provide for the same maturity as the New Note.

The foregoing description of the New Note and the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the New Note and the Amendment, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.71 and 10.72, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

The New Note and the Amendment are provided to give investors information regarding its terms. Investors are not third-party beneficiaries under the New Note or the Amendment and should not view the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of the Company.
