ITEM 5. Other Events.

     On June 25, 2002, Next Level Communications, Inc. (the “Company”) and Motorola, Inc. (“Motorola”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement whereby Motorola purchased 277,311 shares of the Series A-1 Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company (“Series A-1 Preferred”) at a per share purchase price of $119.00, for a total purchase price of approximately $33 million. The total purchase price consisted of (i) the conversion of the $20 million Promissory Note dated December 11, 2001 issued by the Company to Motorola into shares of Series A-1 Preferred and (ii) cash in the amount of $13 million. Each share of Series A-1 Preferred is initially convertible into 100 shares of the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.19 per share; is entitled to cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 7.5%, payable in cash or additional shares of Series A-1 Preferred; and is entitled to a liquidation preference of $297.50 per share in the event of insolvency or dissolution of the Company, in the event of certain change in control, merger or consolidation events and in the event of sales or transfers of a material portion of Company’s assets outside the ordinary course of business. Motorola has waived its right to receive the liquidation preference in the event of a change of control or sale of a material portion of the Company’s assets if such event occurs prior to November 1, 2002. Holders of a majority of the Series A-1 Preferred may require the Company to redeem the Series A-1 Preferred on or after June 25, 2007 at a per share redemption price of $142.80. Holders of Series A-1 Preferred may vote their shares together with holders of Common Stock on an as-converted to common stock basis, and certain material actions require the consent of holders of a majority of the Series A-1 Preferred. In connection with the issuance of the Series A-1 Preferred, the Company granted Motorola a warrant to purchase 6,008,403 shares of the Company’s common stock which is currently exercisable with an exercise price of $1.19 per share and a warrant to purchase 330,000 shares of the Company’s common stock which is exercisable after June 25, 2007 with an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The warrants expire on June 24, 2007 and June 24, 2012, respectively.

     The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2002 was prepared to give effect to the issuance of the Series A-1 Preferred described above as if the issuance had occurred on April 30, 2002. The following pro forma information does not purport to represent what the financial position would have been or to project a financial position for any future date.
