director, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation or other enterprise. The indemnity may include
expenses, including attorneys&#146; fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with
the action, suit or proceeding, provided the officer, director, employee or
agent acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the corporation&#146;s best interests and, for a criminal proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. A Delaware
corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the
right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no
indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or
director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or
director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action
referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses,
including attorneys&#146; fees, which the officer or director actually and
reasonably incurred.

Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Registrant provide for the indemnification
of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">In addition, the Registrant has entered into agreements with its officers and
directors that provide for their indemnification with respect to certain
matters, in addition to indemnification provided for in its Amended and

The Registrant also maintains an insurance policy insuring the Registrant&#146;s
officers and directors against liability for certain acts and omissions while

Pursuant to Rule 416 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this registration statement is deemed to include additional shares of
the Registrant's Common Stock to be offered or issued pursuant to the antidilution provisions of the Harmonic Inc. 1999 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan as amended (the "1999
NSO Plan").
(2)
The Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share is calculated, in part, pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act, and as such, is based upon the exercise price of the
shares issuable pursuant to the 1999 NSO Plan that are registered hereby. The Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share with respect to the additional 1,500,000 shares of
Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance pursuant to future grants under the 1999 NSO Plan is estimated, pursuant to Rule 457(c), to be the average of the high and low
prices of the Registrant's Common Stock as reported on The
Nasdaq Stock Market on June 4, 2003.
(3)
The Amount of Registration Fee was calculated pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Securities Act and SEC Release No. 33-8095, which state that the adjusted fee rate for fiscal
2003 shall be "$80.90 per $1 million" of the maximum aggregate price at which such securities are proposed to be offered. The Registration Fee is therefore calculated by
multiplying the Proposed Maximum Aggregate Offering Price by 0.00008090.

for the purpose of updating such description.
All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and
15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date of this registration statement and
prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment indicating that all
securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then

registration statement and to be part hereof from the date of filing such
documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this registration statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or
is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such
statement. Any statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except
as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this registration
statement.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interest of Named Experts and Counsel.
None.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Reference is made to Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law
(the "DGCL"), which enables a corporation in its original certificate of
incorporation or an amendment to its certificate of incorporation to eliminate
or limit the personal liability of a director for monetary damages for
violations of the director's fiduciary duty, except (1) for any breach of a
director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts
or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (3) pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, providing
for liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock
purchases or redemption, or (4) for any transaction from which a director
derived an improper personal benefit.
Reference is also made to Section 145 of the DGCL which provides that a
corporation may indemnify any persons, including officers and directors, who
are, or are threatened to be made, parties to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or investigative, other than an action by or in the right

of the corporation, by reason of the fact that the person was an officer,
director, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the
request of the corporation or other enterprise. The indemnity may include
expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with
the action, suit or proceeding, provided the officer, director, employee or
agent acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the corporation's best interests and, for a criminal proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. A Delaware
corporation may indemnify officers and directors in an action by or in the
right of the corporation under the same conditions, except that no
indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the officer or
director is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where an officer or
director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action
referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him against the expenses,
including attorneys' fees, which the officer or director actually and
reasonably incurred.
The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Registrant and the
Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Registrant provide for the indemnification
of officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
In addition, the Registrant has entered into agreements with its officers and
directors that provide for their indemnification with respect to certain
matters, in addition to indemnification provided for in its Amended and
Restated Bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify the
Registrant's officers and directors for certain expenses (including attorneys'
fees), judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in
any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the
Registrant, arising out of such person's services as an officer or director of
the Registrant, any subsidiary of the Registrant or any other company or
enterprise to which the person provides services at the Registrant's request.
The Registrant also maintains an insurance policy insuring the Registrant's
officers and directors against liability for certain acts and omissions while
acting in their official capacities.

Item 9. Undertakings.
a.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
1.
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material
change to such information in the registration statement.
Table of Contents
2.
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3.
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
b.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee
benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
c.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the Registrant's bylaws, indemnification
agreements, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the
opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
