At this time all participants are in a listen-only mode. Later we will conduct a question-and-answer session. Please note that this conference is being recorded. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I will now turn the call over to Carolyn Aver. Ms.&nbsp;Aver, you may begin. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Carolyn
Aver&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- CFO</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Thank you. Hello, everybody. With me in our headquarters in San Jose California is
Patrick Harshman, our CEO. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I&#146;d like to point out that in addition to the audio portion of this call, we&#146;ve also provided slides,
which you can see by going to the investor relations page on <U>harmonicinc.com</U> and by clicking on the first-quarter earnings call button. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Now, turning to Slide 2, let me remind you that during this call we will provide projections and other forward-looking statements regarding future events
or the future financial performance of the Company. We must caution you that such statements are only current expectations, and actual events or results may differ materially. We refer you to the documents that Harmonic files with the SEC, including
our most recent 10-K report, and the forward-looking statements section of today&#146;s earnings press release. These documents identify important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in our
projections or forward-looking statements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Please note that unless otherwise indicated, all the financial data provided has been revised to
reflect the sale of the Cable Access business. In addition, the financial metrics we provide you on this call are determined on a non-GAAP basis. These items together with corresponding GAAP numbers and a reconciliation to GAAP are contained in
today&#146;s earnings press release, which we have posted on the website and filed with the SEC on Form 8-K. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We will also discuss historical,
financial, and other statistical information regarding our business and operations. Some of this information is included in the press release, and the remainder of the information will be available in a recorded version of this call on the website.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">With that, let me turn the call over to Patrick. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Well, thank you,
Carolyn, and thank you, everyone, for joining us today. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Turning now to our Slide 3. Today we reported our results for the first quarter of
2013. It reflects mixed fortunes for the Company and the market over the three-month period. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As Carolyn just mentioned, the results I will
discuss here exclude our Cable Access operations, which were divested during the quarter. Quarter-to-quarter comparisons should therefore be made on restated numbers ex-Access. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">With that being said, revenue was $101.7 million &#151; within but near the lower end of our expected range. Business from our international customers contributed 58% of our revenue, reflecting on one
hand continued international market momentum, but on the other hand challenges in our domestic service provider business, continuing the trend we saw of last quarter. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Without the Access business and in a soft domestic market, cable customers represented just 39% of revenue
during the quarter, virtually equivalent to our revenue from broadcast and media customers, while satellite direct to home and telco customers contributed 23% of revenue. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Untangling the Access business from the rest of Harmonic had some impact on operations during the quarter, but we believe those effects are now largely behind us. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our first quarter bookings were $110.1 million, at the high end of our expected range and significantly exceeding revenues. In particular, we saw growth
in international orders, driven largely by improvement in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa region, both sequentially and year on year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our
broadcast and media market segments, or the Omneon acquisition, first gave us a solid position &#151; also realized bookings growth in the first quarter of 2012. And service bookings were also seasonally strong. Consequently, backlog in deferred
revenue increased to $126.3 million, in part a reflection of our evolving strategic role with customers as we continue to move to more projects and increased services. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Turning to operating performance, gross margins for the quarter were 51%. This reflects both an increase from recent run rate margins due to the divestiture of the margin-diluted Access business and a
reduction from the high-margin software heavy mix that we saw last quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Non-GAAP earnings were negative $0.02 percent per share, as with
confidence in our ability to capitalize on emerging opportunities and with relatively strong bookings in the quarter, we decided to maintain operational expenses to support execution. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Cash increased by $27.1 million, driven by the cash proceeds from the Access divestiture and $9.3 million of cash used in share repurchases. Carolyn will provide additional detail on these operating
results in just a few minutes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So turning now to Slide 4, I&#146;ll provide a little bit more color on the quarter. January bookings started
slowly, but momentum built steadily to expected levels in February and March and has so far continued into April. During the first quarter, as in the fourth quarter of last year, business from US pay-TV service providers continued to be soft.
Domestic service provider capital spending is historically cyclical, and we seem to be in the midst of a slower cycle of video infrastructure investment. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">However, we&#146;re encouraged to see several domestic service providers looking ahead to new technologies for service and efficiency differentiation. In contrast to this, however, we saw a healthy
rebound in business coming from the EMEA region, with the highest quarterly orders seen since 2011. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The divestiture of the Cable Access
business &#151; that is, optical transport and hybrid fiber-coax products &#151; during the quarter was a key initiative that brought us $46 million in cash while removing the product line with the slowest growth and lowest market share in our
portfolio, and thereby enabling us to redouble our focus on our largest growth initiatives. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So turning now to Slide 5, what I&#146;d like to
do is just take a step back and look at our situation more holistically. You know, over the past few years Harmonic has delivered strong, and frankly, sometimes not so strong results on a quarterly basis. Yet the result we often forget is that we
have built a company with a very strong strategic position, with number one market share in most of our addressed markets, in a field of increasing strategic value as video becomes more and more popular and comprises more and more of the traffic on
the Internet. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the process we have made acquisitions that have bolstered our strategic position. We have generated significant cash flow as
we&#146;ve managed the business efficiently, unlike many of our peer companies around us. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">However, we recognize the problem that our
shareholders have not seen the benefit of all of this progress over the same period. So beginning over a year ago, we launched new initiatives to address this, including enhanced focus on free cash flow and a corresponding and expanding stock
buyback program. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Looking ahead, we&#146;re adhering to a value creation agenda that has three main elements. The first reiterates the focused
strategic growth plan we have discussed previously. The second is continuing capital structure optimization, and the third is the continuing evolution of our Board of Directors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We believe there is significant value creation opportunity in front of us, and with the remainder of my remarks here today, I&#146;ll provide an update on the progress we are making in each of these three
areas. So let&#146;s now move to Slide 6, where we go back to the strategic growth plan we&#146;ve been executing upon, which has two key elements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The first is our intent to capitalize on the up-and-coming technology refresh cycles in the core video processing and cable edge technology areas, where we now leadership market share. Focused investments
in leveraging market new technology leadership in each of these areas should lead to increased market share, top-line growth, and improved margins. </FONT></P>

<p Style='page-break-before:always'>
<HR  SIZE="3" style="COLOR:#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">At the same time, understanding there is an inherent cyclicality in the new technology adoption waves of our
largest service provider customers, the second element of our strategic growth plan is to significantly expand our global customer base and thereby increase the growth leverage from our technology investments. To this end, or actively driving our
market penetration and share with the leading customers in the global markets we serve. We continue to see opportunity for growth in both competitively held and newly relevant accounts in the expanding international marketplace. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In particular, pay-TV operators are proliferating and growing in most international markets, and broadcast and media companies have become increasingly
relevant as we have moved into the production in play-out spaces and as they move to manage and distribute to end consumers this produced and played out content. With further signs during the quarter of competitive consolidation and scaling back,
there&#146;s never been a better time to convert customers to our model. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So let&#146;s look little deeper at the technology element of this.
Turning now to Slide 7, see where &#151; the areas where Harmonic is investing and the real progress we&#146;re realizing in each of these areas. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The first is CCAP, the converged cable access platform, which is a specification developed by the cable industry itself which converges into a single solution &#151; video EdgeQAM and cable modem CMTS
platforms, today deployed separately. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">You may remember that Harmonic, already the leader in EdgeQAM market for both video on demand and
modular CMTS applications. launched our new NSG Pro CCAP platform in the fourth quarter of last year to a very positive response. We disclosed then that we were in several customer trials, and I can now tell you that we anticipate formal product
acceptance and first orders this quarter. From here we expect to see the business ramp, with a step up in 2014 as the platform&#146;s full two-way capability begins to ship. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Second here is HEVC, high-efficiency video coding, which is the next generation of technology for our video processing business and is based on the new advanced video compression standard we discussed on
the fourth-quarter call. Massive bandwidth economy&nbsp;&#151; approximately 50% savings&nbsp;&#151; and video quality enhancements through this technology offer a very compelling upgrade path for our customers, which we have heard loud and clear
from them in recent meetings. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Importantly, we announced and demonstrated our first HEVC products at the recent NAB show, with first shipments
expected in our ProMedia family in the third quarter. Again, ramping in 2014. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Third, Ultra HD, our ultra high definition video, also known as
4K, has also continued to build momentum. From the hype at CES in January, the market has been moving quickly, with production environments transitioning; pay-TV operators looking to offer new channels for sporting events such as the upcoming World
Cup; and consumer electronics vendors already driving down prices. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">At the NAB show, Sony announced its first sub-$5000 Ultra HD TV set, and
4K cameras now start below $4000. Again at NAB, we announced and demonstrated our first Ultra HD capability encoded with HEVC on our ProMedia platform. And our combined presentation and showcase really wowed the crowds throughout that show.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">European satellite operator SES has since demonstrated an HEVC encoded Ultra HD satellite broadcast using a combination of Harmonic encoding
and Broadcom decoding technology. We expect to see more Ultra HD activity like this later this year and, again, broadening in 2014. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Finally,
over-the-top and multiscreen IP video represents the next generation of capabilities for and beyond the TV for both pay-TV operators and broadcast and media companies looking for new delivery mechanisms and revenue streams. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Monetization and leading-edge technology challenges have made this a somewhat disappointing market so far, but we continue to believe these challenges
will eventually be overcome, and therefore we continue to invest in market and technology leadership. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Particularly in the first quarter, we
announced the beginning of our Cloud initiative for over-the-top in multiscreen, with professional grade transcoding on Amazon AWS. This Cloud approach allows us to remove technology risk and capital intensity for our customers while enhancing our
strategic services orientation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Several Tier 1 customers are already partnering with us on Cloud initiatives for both over-the-top and
multiscreen. Our new over-the-top customer, I&#146;m pleased to be able to disclose, is Televisa, the largest media company in Latin America and a historic Omneon customer. We are fortunate that Televisa joined our NAB press conference to share how
they are now using our full over-the-top solution portfolio to enable compelling new sports services delivered to mobile Internet devices such as phones and tablets. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So moving now to Slide 8 and keeping in mind our partnership with Televisa, let&#146;s discuss the second element of our growth strategy&nbsp;&#151; our plan to expand our global customer base. We see
growing opportunity to supply international pay-TV operators as their business models are coming together and subscriber bases are growing significantly. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Positively, we&#146;ve seen our EMEA business rebound. And we&#146;re building increasing credibility as a clear leader across that region. In the fastest growing Asia-Pacific and Latin American markets,
we have a strong pipeline and continue to see positive returns as we&#146;ve invested in incremental go-to-market resources there. </FONT></P>

<p Style='page-break-before:always'>
<HR  SIZE="3" style="COLOR:#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Similarly, with content proliferating and the route to market options expanding, broadcast and media
companies globally like Televisa represent a large and growing opportunity for Harmonic. New products tailored to their needs have included our new Ellipse contribution encoder and the Spectrum ChannelPort channel-in-the-box solution. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We&#146;ve seen our pipeline steadily growing in this segment. Notable recent wins have included significant projects with two of the top five US
broadcast and media companies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And finally here, while US pay-TV operators have of late represented a challenging marketplace for us, their
levels of consumer penetration and high ARPUs mean that they&#146;ll always have tremendous buying power. While inherent technology cycles and multiscreen monetization are key challenges today, these are challenges we believe will be overcome.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Specifically, we see keen interest in HEVC and Ultra HD as both efficiency game changers and competitive differentiators, and we believe the
service provider opportunity for these new technologies will be at least as significant as the past transitions to MPEG-4 and to high definition video. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So let&#146;s now turn to Slide 9, where we looked at the second element of our value creation agenda &#151; the optimization of our capital structure. In the Harmonic Board&#146;s continued evaluation of
our capital structure, and through continued dialogue with financial market advisors, and in consultation with our major shareholders, it emerged an acceleration of the repurchasing of our own stock was attractive, beyond the open market purchases
of the previously announced share repurchase program. This would return capital to shareholders seeking liquidity under current market conditions while leaving an appropriate level of cash to run and grow the business. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Therefore, on Monday of this week we announced that we&#146;ll be initiating a tender offer for up to $100 million of our common stock at $5.75 to $6.25
per share beginning this Friday, April&nbsp;26. We therefore suspended the existing share repurchase program while the tender offer is outstanding but expect to resume the program after it&#146;s completed. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Given our continuing focus on creating free cash flow, our goal will be to thereafter continue with an ongoing repurchase program while leaving the
Company with an operating cash balance of approximately $100 million. The result of these actions will be to leave the remaining shareholders with a larger percentage ownership of the Company and a larger proportion of future earnings. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">On Slide 10 we look at the third element of our value creation agenda, which is the continued evolution of our Board of Directors. On Monday we also
announced our Chairman, Lew Solomon, would not be standing for reelection for the Board, and that he will retire from the Board just prior to our upcoming annual meeting. Again, we want to thank Lew for his 10 years of service to Harmonic and its
shareholders, including the last five as Chairman. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We also announced that the board elected current member Patrick Gallagher as our new
Chairman, effective April&nbsp;18. In sum, the evolution of our Board over the past 18 months has resulted in a world-class Board of diverse expertise and experience, including two new members and now a new Chairman, and a unified focus on value
creation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Carolyn, I&#146;ll now turn the call back over to you will to return the first-quarter results and to discuss our outlook for the
second quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Carolyn Aver&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- CFO</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Thank you, Patrick. Let&#146;s move to Slide 11. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I&#146;d like to note that we completed the
sale of the Cable Access HFC business on March&nbsp;5. Accordingly, we have shown that business in the discontinued operations section of our P&amp;L, not only for the first quarter of 2013, but for all periods presented. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We have provided historical income statements and other financial metrics reflecting the sale of the Access business with our earnings release and posted
on our website. So you can go to our website and see all of the pro forma financial statements that reflect the sale of the cable business. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our net revenue for the first quarter was $101.7 million compared with $118 million in the fourth quarter and $116 million in the first quarter of 2012.
Our bookings were $110.1 million, slightly lower than the fourth-quarter bookings of $110.8 million but providing a 1.08 to 1 book-to-bill ratio. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Backlog in deferred revenue was $126.3 million at the end of Q1 compared to $119.5 million at the end of Q4. Our non-GAAP gross margin was 51% this quarter, a decrease from 56% in the previous quarter but
an increase from 49% in the first quarter of 2012. Remember that our Q4 gross margin was unusually high and not expected to be repeated in the first quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Non-GAAP operating expenses for the first quarter of 2013 were $55.2 million, up from $54.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 and up from $54.3 million in the first quarter of 2012. Our headcount was
1,096, slightly up from the 1,081 at the end of the previous quarter. </FONT></P>

<p Style='page-break-before:always'>
<HR  SIZE="3" style="COLOR:#999999" WIDTH="100%" ALIGN="CENTER">

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Non-GAAP net loss from continuing operations for the first quarter was $2.7 million or a loss of $0.02 per
share compared with a net gain of $2.2 million or $0.02 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2012. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Income from discontinued operations
was $968,000 and $1.2 million, or $0.01 per share, for the first quarter 2013 and 2012, respectively. Additionally, only the direct costs associated with the Access business are classified in discontinued operations. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As we discussed when we announced the transaction, we have also reduced other related costs. These costs, which represent approximately $1 million to
$1.5 million per quarter or $0.01 per share, remain in the continuing operations section of the P&amp;L for Q1 and will be eliminated in Q2 and beyond. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Moving to Slide 12, our international revenue represented 58% of total revenue in the first quarter compared to 62% in the fourth quarter and 52% for the same period of 2012. For the first quarter, video
processing represented 42% of revenue, a decrease from 45% in the first quarter of 2012. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Production and Playout represented 22% of revenue
this quarter compared to 18% for the same quarter last year, and the cable edge business represented 17% of revenue, a decrease from 22% of revenue last year. Our service and support business increased to 19% of revenue from 15% for the same quarter
last year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As Patrick mentioned, the broadcast and media market and our cable market revenues are roughly the same size this quarter,
representing 38% and 39% of revenue, respectively. Satellite and telco represents 23% of our first-quarter revenue, and no customer represented 10% of our revenue this quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Now turning to Slide 13, you can see we continue to maintain a strong balance sheet. We ended the quarter with a cash balance of $228.3 million, up $27.1 million from the previous quarter. This increase
was due to approximately $44 million of net cash from the sale of the Access business, offset by $4.7 million used in operations and $9.3 million used to repurchase $1.6 million shares of common stock under our share repurchase program. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our receivables balance was $95.7 million and our DSOs were 76 days, up from last quarter&#146;s 61 days. The increase in DSOs is due in part to the
increased percentage of revenue from international customers, which generally have somewhat longer payment terms, and due in part to the unusually low level of invoicing in the first month of this quarter. Lastly, the Easter holiday impacted our
normal quarter-end collection activity, as it was the last weekend of the quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Inventory was $46.4 million, down $17.9 million from the
prior quarter. $10.5 million of this decrease was due to the sale of the Cable Access business. The remainder was due to improved inventory turns. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As a result, our inventory turns were 4.3 times. Capital expenditures for the first quarter were $4.3 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Moving to slide 14, I would like to update you on our share repurchase activities. As we mentioned, during the first quarter we purchased 1.6&nbsp;million shares at an average price of $5.76 per share for
a total of $9.3 million. Through April&nbsp;18, we purchased an additional 1.3&nbsp;million shares for a total of $7.6 million at an average price of $5.71. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As Patrick mentioned yesterday, we announced our intent to offer &#151; to purchase up to 16&nbsp;million shares for a total of $100 million. Until that tender has been completed, the open market purchase
plan is suspended. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Turning to Slide 15, as we look into the second quarter we are concerned about the customer investment cycle around the
edge and the encoding businesses for the US service providers, given new products that are coming later this year. However, we are cautiously optimistic about our international business and our domestic broadcast and media business. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Additionally, we entered the quarter with the highest percentage of backlog in deferred revenue to revenue that we have historically seen. We have a few
large projects that won&#146;t be recognized until the latter half of this year. Therefore, we expect to see our revenue build over the year and our Q2 revenue to be in the range of $105 million to $115 million in the second quarter of 2013.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Non-GAAP gross margins for the second quarter are expected to be in the range of 51.5% to 52.5%, and we have targeted our non-GAAP operating
expenses for the second quarter to be $54 million to $55 million. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Finally, we anticipate our non-GAAP tax rate for 2013 to be in the range of
20% to 21%, subject to our domestic versus international income split. With that, I&#146;ll turn the call back over to Patrick for his closing comments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

CapEx spending that&#146;s been relatively encouraging. Comcast, for example, guided their 10% increase in CapEx for the year. So I guess my question is why isn&#146;t Harmonic seeing upside from this outlook? </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Victor, historically the CapEx is not uniformly spread over different programs and different initiatives. So we talked about this on the last call as we forecast &#151; as we gave our guidance for this
current quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If you look back a year ago, there was tremendous wave of investment in edge, for example. And there just isn&#146;t that
much activity going on in that particular area at the current point in time. We don&#146;t believe that the overall need for edge capacity is slowing down, but we are in a cycle right now where it&#146;s not as necessary. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And you know, it&#146;s also true that in the cable space, particularly as we consider about CCAP &#151; and I don&#146;t want to overstate this &#151;
but you&#146;ll see it in the press, etc., that some of the industry is beginning to look ahead to some of the new technology. And that&#146;s something we have to manage our way carefully through, and we&#146;re trying our best to do that.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And hence, I think the importance of my earlier comment in prepared remarks &#151; that we do expect our first CCAP platform-based order this
quarter, and in fact we expect it from one of our top five cable customers. So we&#146;re encouraged or hopeful that the demand trend around the edge will turn more positive for us. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Victor Chiu&nbsp;- </B><I>Raymond James&nbsp;&amp; Associates&nbsp;- Analyst</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Do you
expect it to be more positive in the back half of this year, or is it just the outlook is still not certain about what the demand for the edge looks like? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We are
cautiously optimistic that the demand profile in that category will indeed improve in the back half of the year. Historically, the cycles are a couple of quarters, but they aren&#146;t years, number one. And number two, as I just mentioned, we
believe that &#151; well, we know that our CCAP technology will be out there. And we believe that we do have some customers who are looking ahead to that technology. So for the both of those reasons we are more optimistic about the prospects of
cable spending in the edge area in the second half of this year. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Victor Chiu&nbsp;- </B><I>Raymond James&nbsp;&amp; Associates&nbsp;-
Analyst</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Okay. And just a quick question on the new encoding technology that you discussed, like HEVC. I guess if the new encoding
technology is really as efficient as you describe it, would it be reasonable to expect a material drop in a legacy encoding business before revenue from the new&nbsp;&#151; the next-generation technology kicks in? I guess how material can you expect
the new technologies to contribute in 2013? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So, yes, it would. And in fact, frankly, we&#146;re living through some of that right now. In the period of time before MPEG-4 took off, there was an
understandable slowing in investments by several of our customer groups, perhaps notably the satellite track to home guys in MPEG-2 technology. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We noted in our last conference call as we surveyed the year that we were impacted by two things last year &#151; a slowdown in our European business and
a significant slowdown in our domestic satellite business. And we think in part that is where we are in the upgrade cycle and some of our customers looking ahead to this quantum leap forward in compression technology. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">It should be noted that this technology does not require a decoder chip. So we do see the potential uptake of it being more quick. At the recent NAB
show, for example, we showed HEVC content being decoded in software on an off-the-shelf iPad. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So it&#146;s &#151; we definitely have
customers who are looking forward to it. And yes, this coming technology cycle unfortunately creates a little bit of a drought as the market transition begins to happen. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

how well is the business currently oriented from a logistics standpoint? I guess the ramp of demand for the new equipment &#151; in terms of manufacturing and &#151; </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Well we are releasing our product, which &#151; I think in July or maybe August; I think I said I said in Q3 &#151; and we see healthy demand starting to

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Good afternoon, everybody. Patrick, can you talk about the day-to-day mechanics of the sales effort, if you will? So specifically, leadership there,
organization, and support? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And then I guess, would it be fair to say that you&#146;re playing some catch-up in the over-the-top multiscreen
segment? And how is the issues at KIT digital and your partnership with them affected the sales effort, if at all? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;-
</B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Okay, help me if I forget some of the nuance there. I think the first part is on the
sales organization. As we talked about last quarter, we&#146;re actually still in the midst of a search for a worldwide sales leader. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">That
being said, I think that situation was not a particularly strong impact on our effectiveness this quarter. And in fact, we largely delivered on what we saw as possible from a new order bookings perspective. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">So I think the sales machine is doing fairly well. We continue to think that in most markets we are gaining market share. Certainly that is true
overseas. It&#146;s a little harder to say that in the domestic space. We think we&#146;ve been a little bit slower. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Richard

way it&#146;s organized and supported? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There&#146;s no specific changes to discuss today. We are organized largely geographically, Richard. Of course, we bring on a new worldwide leader, and they&#146;ll inevitably put their input on it to
some effect. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I&#146;m not sure what level of detail you want to get into. Carolyn&#146;s just reminded me here that we did change the way
India was currently managed, and India is now rolling up Asia &#151; under Asia. I don&#146;t know if that&#146;s the kind of level of detail you&#146;re talking about. But certainly there&#146;s always those kinds of adjustments, but there&#146;s
nothing profound or I think really noteworthy at 10,000 feet, Richard, in terms of the way the sales force is organized. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I mean, look, we
believe that we executed fairly well in terms of gaining market share last year. So I &#151; in general, nothing is perfect, but I give our sales force fairly high marks for winning new accounts and taking advantage of the opportunities that are in
front of us based on the technology we have and the spending that our customers are doing. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Perhaps it&#146;s a segue into the second part of
your question is on multiscreen? Our view is that multiscreen is still a fragmented space. We think that we&#146;ve got pretty good market share. Certainly we don&#146;t have as much as we have had historically in the broadcast market, but we do
quite well. And frankly, I think if we look back now in the mirror of time, we can see that there&#146;s some others in this space who were undoubtedly overhyping the situation year ago. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Speaking very bluntly, I think we got hammered a little bit by saying that we saw it as a somewhat challenged market due to business model challenges and uncertainty, etc. Others were out there saying
it&#146;s a fast-growing market, and Harmonic was missing the boat. And I think not just our own results, but others&#146; have shown that the latter situation is true, frankly. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We been very pleased with the deals we have won &#151; my mention of Televisa here on this call. I think also during the quarter we announced a very significant TV Everywhere deal with Virgin Media in the
UK. That&#146;s a big deal for us. We&#146;re pleased with the success that we&#146;ve had with what the market has had to offer. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As your question alluded to, maybe coming to the third part, you asked about KIT digital? KIT is one of
several different companies that we partner with, and we continue to do work with KIT. They continue to have good technology. But there is a &#151; frankly, there&#146;s a basket of others that we also partner with. And so I think a flexible

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Hi, thanks for taking my questions. Just first &#151; just on what sort of happened here in the last quarter. I mean, you guys had guided on the 19th to $100 million to $110 million. You obviously came in
on the light side of that. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I just want to verify that you basically, in this last month, despite strength in the orders, it didn&#146;t give
it as much as you thought? Like where was the shortfall? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Yes, you were in the range, but yet you were on the low side of the range. What
happened versus your expectation since the announcement of the divestiture? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President,
CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The bookings came in at the high end of that range, as we mentioned, at $110 million. So I think the delta really comes down to
revenue recognition, and sort of happening and not. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">As I mentioned, we are overall seeing a greater and greater mix of our business slosh
towards projects with more complicated revenue recognition. Accruals &#151; we are delivering more services, as evidenced by the numbers that Carolyn discussed. 19% of the revenue in the quarter actually was associated with services of one kind or
another. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And so there&#146;s no fundamental thing there, James. We simply recognized less than we originally anticipated. </FONT></P>

was a little bit &#151; I mean, the headcount went up sequentially. I remember you said there was going to be some transition services. You know, is there &#151; I&#146;m just wondering how much of that was kind of &#151; could you just talk to what
happened with the headcount and how much of that really was an organic increase in Harmonic&#146;s future underlying headcount? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Carolyn

hear you say that Europe is sort of bottoming here. Yet we just saw &#151; I think it was a private sector manufacturing for Germany contract for the first time in five months. It&#146;s clearly very choppy data globally. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I&#146;m just wondering, do you kind of feel like this truly is a bottoming and improvement in the Europe situation? Or could it just be a blip? Any
thoughts around that? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I mean, you&#146;re right. The crystal ball is a little bit cloudy, but the data is the data. And it was a strong demand quarter for us &#151; the
strongest since 2011. I think that&#146;s encouraging. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And frankly, the outlook and the pipeline are relatively healthy. So it remains to be

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I should acknowledge &#151; we should recognize that lion&#146;s share of this demand is coming from north
Europe. Also, the broader EMEA region, Eastern Europe, Russia, etc. So we&#146;re not sitting here saying we&#146;re seeing great orders coming out of Greece or Spain. But as a combined region, going back to Richard&#146;s sales question, I&#146;m

the first one first. I don&#146;t think we yet have any assumptions about the overall growth rate of our video processing business during the year. We certainly don&#146;t have an assumption that for the full year it&#146;s going to be down.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Certainly, it depends to what extent the HEVC that we talked about really starts to move in the second half of the year. And also, it depends
on the extent to which the sectors that are moving, which are international markets, broadcast and media, continue to grow and consume our video processing products. So, you know, a little bit difficult to forecast exactly what is going to happen
looking out, for example, in the fourth quarter. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">But regardless of whether the absolute spending level out the market is a little higher or a
little lower, we&#146;re convinced going to be gaining market share. And maybe to your question about headcount, we&#146;re convinced that the right thing to do is invest and make sure we are there with Ultra HD and HEVC. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We saw how much the Company was able to grow, how much we benefited in that last cycle of MPEG-4 and HD, and we&#146;re committed to being really on top
of that wave as it crests. You know late 2013, early 2014, it&#146;s a little bit hard to forecast that the right decision for us is to be there. It&#146;s to be in a leadership position, and that&#146;s the way we&#146;re positioning the Company.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Overall growth rate, you know, I don&#146;t think we have a number that we can yet share with you. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">But as I look at the Company, you guys laid out a pretty aggressive operating margin target two years ago and have gone the other direction. So is this
what we need to get to those old targets? And do you get there &#151; does OpEx stay flat going forward? Does it come up? I mean, how do we kind of bridge that gap to where you thought you would be today versus where you are and kind of where you

about it in those terms. I think there&#146;s still considerable head room for growth, but let&#146;s say accelerated growth relative to the overall growth profile of the product side of the business. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Okay. And then my specific question is &#151; relates to Voce Capital and your Board update. Was that decision made in conjunction with Voce? Maybe you could just talk about where your interaction stands
with them and just kind of update all the shareholders on that. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I tried to lay out in fact &#151; what Board has been doing is a process that&#146;s kind of extending back over 18 months. You may recall that in
January one of our long-standing Board members announced he was stepping down from the board. A second, my predecessor Tony Lay didn&#146;t stand for reelection a year ago. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We brought on two new &#151; we brought on one new Board member, Sue Swenson. And then more recently &#151; I don&#146;t know, six or nine months ago, Mitzi Ray joined the Board, and Lew has just
announced that he&#146;s stepping down after 10 years on the Board. I think the Board has been quite thoughtful and deliberate in effecting a transition that has really been rolling out over the past 18 months. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">I think the right way to view these &#151; Lew&#146;s decision to step down this in the context of that process that the Board has been thinking through,
and talking through, and acting on over the past 18 months. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Randy Baron&nbsp;- </B><I>Pinnacle Fund&nbsp;- Analyst</I><B> </B></FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">And then just on the question of your interaction with Voce. I just want to make sure we&#146;re not missing a public filing of your response letter to
them? </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Patrick Harshman&nbsp;- </B><I>Harmonic Inc.&nbsp;- President, CEO</I><B> </B></FONT></P>

Regarding Forward-Looking Statements </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section&nbsp;27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including statements related to our expectations regarding: our final results for the first quarter ended March&nbsp;29, 2013; execution on our organic growth
strategy and shareholder value initiatives; our domestic customers looking ahead to new video infrastructure investments; our progress in our efforts to establish a market-leading position in new technology areas; our announced tender offer; and net
revenue, GAAP gross margins, GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP gross margins and non-GAAP operating expenses for the second quarter of 2013. Our expectations regarding these matters may not materialize, and actual results in future periods are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks include the possibility, in no particular order, that: our announced tender offer is delayed or does not occur; the sale of our
Cable Access HFC business results in unexpected costs or liabilities; the trends toward more high-definition, on-demand and anytime, anywhere video will not continue to develop at its current pace or will expire; the possibility that our products
will not generate sales that are commensurate with our expectations or that our cost of revenue or operating expenses may exceed our expectations; the mix of products and services sold in various geographies and the effect it has on gross margins;
delays or decreases in capital spending in the cable, satellite and telco and broadcast and media industries; customer concentration and consolidation; the impact of general economic conditions, including as a result of recent turmoil in the global
financial markets, particularly in Europe, on our sales and operations; our ability to develop new and enhanced products in a timely manner and market acceptance of new or existing Harmonic products; losses of one or more key customers; risks
associated with Harmonic&#146;s international operations; dependence on market acceptance of several broadband services, on the adoption of new broadband technologies and on broadband industry trends; inventory management; the lack of timely
availability of parts or raw materials necessary to produce our products; the impact of increases in the prices of raw materials and oil; the effect of competition, on both revenue and gross margins; difficulties associated with rapid technological

establishing operating budgets, managing its business performance, and setting internal measurement targets, the Company excludes a number of items required by GAAP. Management believes that these accounting charges and credits, most of which are
non-cash or non-recurring in nature, are not useful in managing its operations and business. Historically, the Company has also publicly presented these supplemental non-GAAP measures in order to assist the investment community to see the Company
&#147;through the eyes of management,&#148; and thereby enhance understanding of its operating performance. This communication may include non-GAAP measures. The presentation of non-GAAP information is not intended to be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP results published by other companies. A reconciliation of certain historical non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable
historical GAAP financial measures is included with the financial statements contained in the Company&#146;s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April&nbsp;23, 2013. The non-GAAP adjustments described
below have historically been excluded from our GAAP financial measures. These adjustments are restructuring and related charges and non-cash items, such as stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangibles, and adjustments that normalize
the tax rate. With respect to any expectations presented in this communication, reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high
variability and low visibility with respect to the charges which are excluded from these non-GAAP measures. The effects of stock-based compensation expense specific to common stock options are directly impacted by unpredictable fluctuations in our
stock price. We expect the variability of the above charges to have a significant impact on our GAAP financial results. </FONT></P>
