(1) In the event the Option (discussed in Items 3 and 4 below)
becomes exercisable and is exercised in full, At Home will have sole voting
power with respect to that number of shares equal to 19.9% of the then
outstanding shares of Common Stock of Excite, which, based upon the
52,676,876 shares of Excite Common Stock outstanding as of January 19, 1999
(as represented by Excite in the Merger Agreement discussed in Items 3 and
4) currently equals 10,482,698 shares of Excite Common Stock. Prior to the
exercise of the Option, At Home is not entitled to any rights as a
stockholder of Excite as to the shares of Excite Common Stock covered by
the Option. The Option may only be exercised upon the happening of certain
events referred to in Item 4, none of which has occurred as of the date
hereof. At Home expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the
shares of Excite Common Stock which are purchaseable by At Home upon
exercise of the Option until such time as At Home purchases any such shares
of Excite Common Stock upon any such exercise.
(2) 9,155,487 shares of Excite Common Stock are subject to Voting
Agreements entered into by At Home and certain stockholders of Excite
(discussed in Items 3 and 4 below). At Home expressly disclaims beneficial
ownership of any of the shares of Excite Common Stock covered by the Voting
Agreements. Based on the number of shares of Excite Common Stock
outstanding as of January 19, 1999 (as represented by Excite in the Merger
Agreement discussed in Items 3 and 4), the number of shares of Excite
Common Stock indicated represents approximately 17.4% of the outstanding
Excite Common Stock, excluding the shares of outstanding shares of Excite
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.
The name of the corporation filing this statement is At Home
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("At Home"). At Home is the
leading provider of broadband Internet services over the cable
television infrastructure to consumers. The address of At Home's
principal business is 425 Broadway Street, Redwood City, California
94063. The address of At Home's executive offices is the same as the

a controlling stockholder of At Home. TCI's principal business
address and the address of its executive offices is Terrace Tower II,
5619 DTC Parkway, Englewood, CO 80111. TCI, through its subsidiaries

and home shopping programming services to various video distribution
media, principally cable television systems. TCI also has investments
in cable and telecommunications operations and television programming
in certain international markets as well as investments in companies
and joint ventures involved in developing and providing programming
for new television and telecommunications technologies. TCI is a
corporation formed under the laws of the state of Delaware.
Information in this statement with respect to TCI, TCIIH and the
directors and executive officers of TCI has been provided to At Home

CUSIP NO. 300904109 Page 4 of 10 Pages
- ------------------- ------------------
ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of
January 19, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement"), among At Home, Countdown
Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary
of At Home ("Merger Sub") and Excite, and subject to the conditions
set forth therein (including approval by stockholders of At Home and
Excite), Merger Sub will merge with and into Excite and Excite will
become a wholly-owned subsidiary of At Home (such events constituting
the "Merger"). Once the Merger is consummated, Merger Sub will cease
to exist as a corporation and all of the business, assets, liabilities
and obligations of Merger Sub will be merged into Excite with Excite
remaining as the surviving corporation (the "Surviving Corporation").
As a result of the Merger, each outstanding share of Excite Common
Stock, other than shares owned by Merger Sub, At Home or any wholly-
owned subsidiary of At Home, will be converted into the right to
receive 1.041902 shares (the "Exchange Ratio") of At Home Series A
Common Stock, and each outstanding option to purchase Excite Common
Stock under Excite's stock option plans (each, an "Excite Common Stock
Option") will be assumed by At Home (each, an "Assumed Option") and
certain outstanding warrants to purchase Excite Common Stock and
certain promissory notes convertible into Excite Common Stock (each,
an "Excite Convertible Security") will be assumed by At Home (each, an
"Assumed Convertible Security"). Each Assumed Option and each Assumed
Convertible Security will become an option or warrant to purchase, or
promissory note convertible into, that number of shares of At Home
Series A Common Stock as is equal (subject to rounding) to the number
of shares of Excite Common Stock that was subject to such option,
warrant or convertible promissory note, as the case may be,
immediately prior to the Merger, multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. The
exercise price of each Assumed Option and each Assumed Convertible
Security will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the
exercise price per share of Excite Common Stock at which such Excite
Common Stock Option and each Excite Convertible Security was
exercisable immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger by
the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent.
As an inducement to At Home to enter into the Merger Agreement, At
Home and Excite entered into a Stock Option Agreement dated as of
January 19, 1999 (the "Stock Option Agreement") pursuant to which
Excite granted At Home the right (the "Option"), under certain
conditions, to acquire up to the number of shares of Excite Common
Stock sufficient to give At Home ownership of 19.9% of Excite's
outstanding Common Stock. Excite's obligation to issue shares
pursuant to the exercise of the Option is subject to the occurrence of
certain events (discussed in Item 4 below), which may not occur. The
granting of the Option was negotiated as a material term of the entire
Merger transaction. At Home did not pay additional consideration to
Excite in connection with Excite entering into the Stock
<PAGE>
SCHEDULE 13D/A
- ------------------- ------------------
CUSIP NO. 300904109 Page 5 of 10 Pages
- ------------------- ------------------
Option Agreement and granting the Option. In the event the Option
becomes exercisable, At Home anticipates it will use working capital
for any exercise of the Option.
As a further inducement for At Home to enter into the Merger Agreement
and in consideration thereof, certain stockholders of Excite (the
"Stockholders") entered into a Company Voting Agreement (as such term
is defined in the Merger Agreement), dated as of January 19, 1999 with
At Home (collectively, the "Voting Agreements") whereby the
Stockholders agreed, severally and not jointly, to vote all of the
shares of Excite Common Stock beneficially owned by them in favor of
approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the
Merger and certain related matters. At Home did not pay additional
consideration to any Stockholder in connection with the execution and
delivery of the Voting Agreements.
References to, and descriptions of, the Merger, the Merger Agreement,
the Stock Option Agreement and the Voting Agreements as set forth
herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the copies of
the Merger Agreement, the Stock Option Agreement and the Voting
Agreement, respectively, included as Exhibits 1, 2 and 3,
respectively, to this Schedule 13D/A, and are incorporated herein in
their entirety where such references and descriptions appear.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
(a) - (b) As described in Item 3 above, this statement relates to the
Merger of Merger Sub, a wholly-owned subsidiary of At Home, with and
into Excite in a statutory merger pursuant to the Delaware General
Corporation Law. At the effective time of the Merger, the separate
existence of Merger Sub will cease and Excite will continue as the
Surviving Corporation and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of At Home.
Each holder of outstanding Excite Common Stock will receive, in
exchange for each share of Excite Common Stock held by such holder,
1.041902 shares of At Home Common Stock. At Home will assume each
Excite Common Stock Option and each Excite Convertible Security.
Each of the Stockholders has, by executing a Voting Agreement, agreed
to vote such portion of the 9,155,487 shares, collectively, of Excite
Common Stock (the "Shares") beneficially owned by them as described
below. The Stockholders and the number of outstanding shares
beneficially owned by each of them as of January 19, 1999, is set
forth in Schedule B hereto which is hereby incorporated by this
reference.
Pursuant to the Voting Agreements, the Stockholders have agreed, at
every Excite stockholders meeting and on every action or approval by
written consent in lieu of such meeting, to cause the Shares to be
voted (i) in favor of adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement
and approval of the Merger and (ii) against approval of (a) any
proposal made in
<PAGE>
SCHEDULE 13D/A
- ------------------- ------------------
CUSIP NO. 300904109 Page 6 of 10 Pages
- ------------------- ------------------
opposition to or in competition with consummation of the Merger, (b)
any merger, consolidation, sale of assets, reorganization or
recapitalization with any party other than At Home or its affiliates
or (c) any liquidation or winding up of Excite. The Stockholders may
vote the Shares on all other matters. The Voting Agreements terminate
upon the earlier to occur of (i) September 30, 1999, (ii) such date
and time as the Merger shall become effective in accordance with the
terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement, (iii) such date and time
as the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Article
VII thereof, (iv) the first meeting of Excite's stockholders at which
the Merger is considered and not approved or (v) any breach by a party
other than Excite of the Parent Voting Agreement dated as of January
19, 1999 among Excite and TCIIH.
Pursuant to the Stock Option Agreement Excite granted At Home the
Option, under certain conditions, to acquire up to the number of
shares of Excite Common Stock sufficient to give At Home ownership of
19.9% of Excite's outstanding Common Stock. Excite's obligation to
issue shares pursuant to the exercise of the Stock Option is subject
to the occurrence of certain events (each, an "Exercise Event"), which
may not occur. In general, an Exercise Event may be deemed to occur:
(a) if (i) the Board of Directors of Excite or any committee thereof
shall for any reason have withdrawn or shall have amended or modified
in a manner adverse to At Home its unanimous recommendation in favor
of, the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement or the approval
of the Merger; (ii) Excite shall have failed to include in the
Prospectus/Proxy Statement the unanimous recommendation of the Board
of Directors of Excite in favor of the adoption and approval of the
Merger Agreement and the approval of the Merger; (iii) the Board of
Directors of Excite fails to reaffirm its unanimous recommendation in
favor of the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the
approval of the Merger within ten (10) days after At Home requests in
writing that such recommendation be reaffirmed; (iv) the Board of
Directors of Excite or any committee thereof shall have approved or
recommended any Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger
Agreement); or (v) a tender or exchange offer relating to securities
of Excite shall have been commenced by a Person (as defined in the
Merger Agreement) unaffiliated with At Home and Excite shall not have
sent to its securityholders pursuant to Rule 14e-2 promulgated under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, within ten (10) business days
after such tender or exchange offer is first published, sent or given,
a statement disclosing that Excite recommends rejection of such tender
or exchange offer; (b) upon the public announcement of an Option
Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Stock Option Agreement); or
(c) upon the commencement of a solicitation within the meaning of Rule
14a-1(l) by any person or entity other than Excite or its Board of
Directors (or any person or entity acting on behalf of Excite or
its Board of Directors) seeking to alter the composition of the
Excite's Board of Directors.

EXHIBIT 2
COMPANY VOTING AGREEMENT
This Company Voting Agreement ("Agreement") is made and entered into as of
January 19, 1999, between At Home Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("Parent"), and the undersigned stockholder ("Stockholder") of Excite, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company").
RECITALS
A. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Parent, the Company
and Countdown Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Parent ("Merger Sub"), are entering into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization, dated as of January 19, 1999 (the "Merger Agreement") which
provides for the merger (the "Merger") of Merger Sub with and into the Company.
Pursuant to the Merger, shares of capital stock of the Company will be converted
into Series A Common Stock of Parent on the basis described in the Merger
Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings
set forth in the Merger Agreement.
B. Stockholder is the record holder of such number of outstanding shares
of Company Common Stock as is indicated on the final page of this Agreement.
C. As a material inducement to enter into the Merger Agreement, Parent
desires Stockholder to agree, and Stockholder is willing to agree, to vote the
Shares (as defined below), and such other shares of capital stock of the Company
over which Stockholder has voting power, so as to facilitate consummation of the
Merger.
NOW, THEREFORE, intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as
follows:
1. Agreement to Vote Shares.
------------------------
1.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement:
-----------
"Shares" shall mean all issued and outstanding shares of Company Common
Stock owned of record or beneficially (over which beneficially-owned shares
Stockholder exercises voting power) by Stockholder as of the record date for
persons entitled (a) to receive notice of, and to vote at the meeting of the
stockholders of the Company called for the purpose of voting on the matter
referred to in Section 1.2, or (b) to take action by written consent of the
stockholders of the Company with respect to the matter referred to in Section
1.2. Stockholder agrees that any shares of capital stock of the Company that
Stockholder purchases or with respect to which Stockholder otherwise acquires
beneficial ownership (over which beneficially-owned shares Stockholder exercises
voting power)
<PAGE>
after the execution of this Agreement and prior to the date of termination of
this Agreement pursuant to Section 6 below shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement to the same extent as if they constituted Shares on
the date hereof.
"Subject Securities" shall mean: (i) all securities of the Company
(including all shares of Company Common Stock and all options, warrants and
other rights to acquire shares of Company Common Stock) beneficially owned by
Stockholder as of the date of this Agreement; and (ii) all additional securities
of Company (including all additional shares of Company Common Stock and all
additional options, warrants and other rights to acquire shares of Company
Common Stock) of which Stockholder acquires ownership during the period from the
date of this Agreement through the earlier of termination of this Agreement
pursuant to Section 3 below or the record date for the meeting at which
stockholders of the Company are asked to vote upon adoption and approval of the
Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger (the "Record Date").
Stockholder shall be deemed to have effected a "Transfer" of a security if
Stockholder directly or indirectly: (i) sells, pledges, encumbers, transfers or
disposes of, or grants an option with respect to, such security or any interest
in such security; or (ii) enters into an agreement or commitment providing for
the sale, pledge, encumbrance, transfer or disposition of, or grant of an option
with respect to, such security or any interest therein. Stockholder shall not
be deemed to have effected a "Transfer" of a security by virtue of entering into
a merger, consolidation or other business combination of any nature with another
entity or entities.
1.2 Agreement to Vote Shares. Until the termination of this
------------------------
Agreement pursuant to Section 3 below, at every meeting of the stockholders of
the Company called with respect to any of the following, and at every
adjournment thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the
stockholders of the Company with respect to any of the following, Stockholder
shall cause the Shares to be voted (i) in favor of adoption and approval of the
Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger and (ii) against approval of (a) any
proposal made in opposition to or in competition with consummation of the
Merger, (b) any merger, consolidation, sale of assets, reorganization or
recapitalization with any party other than Parent or its affiliates or (c) any
liquidation or winding up of the Company.
1.3. No Transfer of Subject Securities. Until the earlier of
---------------------------------
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 3 below or the Record Date,
except as may be required by (i) the foreclosure on any encumbrance secured by
such Subject Securities as of the date hereof or (ii) court order, Stockholder
agrees not to Transfer any of the Subject Securities, unless each transferee to
which any of such Subject Securities, or any interest in any of such Subject
Securities, is or may be Transferred shall have executed a counterpart of this
Agreement and agreed in writing to hold such Subject Securities (or interest in
any of such Subject Securities) subject to all of the terms and provisions of
this Agreement.
