Item 8.01. Other Events.
     On March 12, 2009, Harmonic Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Harmonic” or the “Registrant”), completed its acquisition of Scopus Video Networks Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (“Scopus”), pursuant to a previously-announced Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of December 22, 2008, by and among Harmonic, Sunrise Acquisition Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel and a wholly owned subsidiary of Harmonic (“Merger Sub”), and Scopus. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub was merged with and into Scopus (the “Merger”), with Scopus continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Harmonic.
     Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time and as a result of the Merger:
    Each ordinary share of Scopus, par value NIS 1.40 per share (the “Scopus Ordinary Shares”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, was cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash amount of $5.62, without interest, less any applicable withholding (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”); and
 
    Each of Scopus’ vested or unvested options to purchase shares of Scopus ordinary shares (each a “Scopus Option”) outstanding at the effective time of the Merger was cancelled automatically, and each such vested Scopus option was converted into the right to receive a lump sum cash payment (less any applicable withholding) equal to the product obtained by multiplying (x) the total number of shares of Scopus Ordinary Shares subject to such vested Scopus Option immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger by (y) the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of Scopus Ordinary Shares subject to such vested Scopus Option.
     In total, net of cash held by Scopus, the total enterprise value of Scopus was approximately $50 million, net of Scopus’ cash and short-term investments.
