Item 5. Other Events and Regulation FD Disclosure.

On August 1, 2003, Com21, Inc. (the "Company") issued a press release announcing that a hearing has been set for August 7, 2003 at 1:30 p.m., to obtain approval from the US Bankruptcy Court (Northern District of California, San Jose Division) for the Company's proposed sale of certain key assets including the DOCSIS CMTS product line and the Company's Irish subsidiary to ARRIS International. The proposal is subject to overbid. The proposed sale price is $2,796,000. Although the ultimate sale price may be higher, the Company announced that it is highly unlikely that sufficient proceeds will be received to pay the approximately $25,000,000 in creditor claims and that the Company believes that its outstanding stock is without value.

This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report.
