  ITEM 5:  OTHER EVENTS.
  
  Lawsuit
  -------
  
       On May 26, 2000, a purported class action suit was initiated in the San
  Mateo County Superior Court by an alleged Excite@Home stockholder against
  Excite@Home, AT&T Corp., Comcast Corporation and Cox Communications, Inc., as
  well as each member of our board of directors.  The complaint alleges that the
  defendants breached fiduciary duties to Excite@Home stockholders by approving or
  entering into, as applicable, the letter agreement among Excite@Home, AT&T,
  Comcast and Cox on March 28, 2000, and by agreeing to consummate the
  transactions contemplated by this agreement.  In summary, the letter agreement
  provides for the extension of Excite@Home's distribution relationships with
  these cable partners, for the issuance of warrants to these cable partners, the
  issuance of additional shares of Series B common stock to AT&T in exchange for
  Series A common stock currently held by AT&T, the issuance of "put" rights by
  AT&T to Comcast and Cox to enable them to sell their shares of our Series A
  common stock to AT&T at a minimum of $48 per share between January 2001 and June
  2002, and changes to our corporate governance structure.  In the complaint, the
  plaintiffs seek a court order nullifying the letter agreement, money damages,
  and a court order establishing a stockholders' committee comprised of
  unidentified class members to provide input regarding the transactions
  contemplated by the letter agreement.  We believe this action is without merit,
  and intend to defend against this action vigorously.  If the plaintiffs prevail,
  we may not be able to proceed with the transactions proposed by the letter
  agreement, which could seriously harm our business.
  
  Cablevision Relationship
  ------------------------
  
       We have received notice from Cablevision Systems Corporation that
  Cablevision asserts that the letter agreement dated March 28, 2000 among
  Excite@Home, AT&T, Comcast and Cox violates the terms of our agreements with
  Cablevision, and that Cablevision's consent to the March 28 letter agreement is
  required before we can proceed with the transactions contemplated by that
  agreement. Cablevision proposed that it be added as a party to the letter
  agreement under the same terms as were granted to Comcast and Cox under the
  letter agreement, or alternatively that we negotiate a termination of the
  relationship between us and Cablevision. We disagree with Cablevision's
  assertion that its consent is required for us to consummate the transactions
  contemplated by the March 28 letter agreement. The parties are also engaged in
  discussions concerning disputes as to their respective obligations and
  performance with respect to the distribution of the @Home service under the
  existing agreements. At this time, we do not know what the result of our
  negotiations with Cablevision regarding these matters will be, nor whether
  Excite@Home will continue to be a partner of Cablevision under our existing
  agreements once these negotiations are concluded.
