(1)  The Registrant, Harmonic Inc. ("Harmonic") and C-Cube Microsystems Inc.
     ("C-Cube Microsystems"), previously filed a joint proxy/registration
     statement on Form S-4 (Commission File No. 333-33148) to cover 25,371,225
     shares (the "Initial Shares") of Harmonic's common stock, $.001 par value
     ("Harmonic Common Stock"), issuable in connection with the merger of C-Cube
     Microsystems into Harmonic. Harmonic is filing this registration statement
     on Form S-4MEF pursuant to Rule 462(b) with respect to an additional
     1,628,775 shares of Harmonic Common Stock issuable in connection with the
     merger based on an increase in the estimated number of shares of common
     stock of C-Cube Microsystems outstanding at closing.

(2)  At the exchange ratio of 0.5427, 3,001,244 shares of C-Cube Microsystems
     common stock would be cancelled in the transaction in exchange for the
     additional 1,628,775 shares of Harmonic Common Stock registered hereby. The
     Proposed Maximum Aggregate Offering Price and the Amount of Registration
     Fee are based on this number of shares of C-Cube Microsystems common stock
     and, pursuant to Rule 457(f) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
     the book value of such securities computed as of the latest practicable
     date prior to the date of filing the registration statement in the amount
     of $10.59. Harmonic previously paid a registration fee of $513,442 in
     connection with the registration of the Initial Shares. In accordance with
     Rule 457(a), the shares of C-Cube Microsystems common stock that would be
     cancelled in the transaction in exchange for the Initial Shares have been
     excluded from the calculation of the amount of the registration fee payable
     in connection with this registration statement.
