Zeev,

Would you please read this for me and advise if it's a floorless?


61. ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.
This statement on Schedule 13D (this "STATEMENT") relates to the Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), of Hybrid Networks, Inc. (the "ISSUER") that is issuable upon conversion of the 4% Convertible Debentures due 2009 (the "DEBENTURES") purchased from the Issuer by OSCCO III, L.P., a California limited partnership ("OSCCO"), on September 9, 1999.
The Debentures will be convertible, at OSCCO's election, into 263,158 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in the Debenture) , at any time after the first of the following to occur: - December 31, 1999 (unless the Issuer agrees in writing to an
earlier date), - a Change of Control (as hereinafter defined) of the Issuer or - receipt by OSCCO of a Change of Control Notice (as hereinafter defined) from the Issuer.

For purposes of the Debentures, Change of Control means: (a) any person shall have acquired beneficial ownership of more than 25% of the outstanding voting stock of the Issuer (within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act); or (b) individuals who immediately after the closing were directors of the Issuer cease to constitute a majority of the board of directors of the Issuer. If a proposed Change of Control will occur pursuant to an agreement to which the Issuer is a party, the Issuer shall give notice of such
proposed Change of Control (the "CHANGE OF CONTROL NOTICE") to OSCCO at least 10 business days prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such agreement. At any time on or after December 31, 2000, the Issuer shall have the right to convert the principal of the Debentures (or any portion of the principal which is $1.00 or an integral multiple of $1.00) into fully paid and nonassessable (except as otherwise provided by law) shares of Common Stock.
OSCCO previously acquired (before 1988) and currently owns 432,013
shares of Common Stock and warrants (which are currently exercisable) to purchase up to 66,552 shares of Common Stock (together, the "OTHER SECURITIES").
Before October 31, 1999, the date on which the Debentures will be exercisable within 60 days, OSCCO has and will beneficially own less than 5% of the total outstanding Common Stock. On October 31, 1999, OSCCO will, by virtue of the Debentures (when added to the Other Securities) beneficially own 6.9% of the total outstanding Common Stock. The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 6409 Guadalupe Mines Road, San Jose, California 95120.

(f) Each General Partner is a citizen of the United States of America.
3. ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
The aggregate purchase price of the Debentures was $750,000. The
aggregate price paid for the Other Securities was $1,097,878.75. The funds used by OSCCO to purchase the Debentures and Other Securities were funds raised by OSCCO for the purpose of purchasing securities in general but not these particular securities.
4. ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
OSCCO purchased the Debentures and the Other Securities based on its
belief that they represented an attractive investment opportunity. The acquisition of the Debentures and the Other Securities was made in the ordinary course of business and was not made for the purpose of acquiring control of the Issuer. Depending upon overall market conditions, other investment opportunities available to OSCCO and the availability of securities of the Company at prices that would make the purchase of additional securities of the Company desirable, OSCCO may endeavor to increase its position in the Issuer through the purchase of additional securities of the Company on the open market or in private transactions, through a tender offer or otherwise, on such terms and at such times as OSCCO may deem advisable.
OSCCO intends to actively monitor efforts of management to increase
stockholder value. OSCCO may also decide in the future to propose a transaction whereby all or a portion of the Issuer be sold, and in connection therewith, OSCCO may seek to participate in such transaction or seek to acquire control of the Issuer in a negotiated transaction or otherwise. OSCCO also may seek in the future to have one or more of its representatives appointed to the Board of Directors of the Issuer, by agreement with the Issuer or otherwise, including by
running its own slate of nominees. OSCCO may in the future propose other matters for consideration and approval by the Issuer, its stockholders or the Board of Directors, but has not identified such matters this date.
OSCCO does not have any present plan or proposal which would relate to
or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein or such as would occur upon completion of any of the actions discussed above. OSCCO intends to review its investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and, depending on various factors, including the Issuer's financial position and investment strategy, the price levels of the Debentures, the Other Securities or shares of Common Stock,
conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry
conditions, may in the future take such actions with respect to its investment in the Issuer as it deems appropriate, including purchasing additional Debentures, Other Securities or shares of Common Stock or selling some or all of the Debentures or Other Securities, or to change its intentions with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4.
5. ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
(a) OSCCO has purchased the Debentures for an aggregate purchase price of $750,000. Assuming the conversion of the Debentures and the exercise of the warrants referred to above, each Reporting Person would own as of the date hereof 761,723 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 6.9% of the 11,006,952 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 1999 (adjusted to include the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and the
warrants owned by OSCCO). The number of shares of Common Stock into which a Debenture is convertible may be increased due to certain adjustments to the conversion price as described in the Debenture.
(b) OSCCO individually purchased the Debentures and has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote of 761,723 shares of Common Stock and the sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 761,723 shares of Common Stock. OSCCO Management, by virtue of being the sole general partner of OSCCO, has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote of 761,723 shares of Common Stock and the sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of 761,723 shares of Common Stock. The General Partners, by virtue of their position as a general partner of OSCCO Management, have shared power to vote or to direct the vote of
761,723 shares of Common Stock and shared power to dispose or direct the disposition of 761,723 shares of Common Stock. Each General Partner shares voting and disposition power relating to 761,723 shares of Common Stock with each of the other General Partners in proportion to such General Partner's profit interest in OSCCO Management.
(c) OSCCO purchased the Debentures on September 9, 1999 as described in Item 1 above. In September, Stephen E. Halprin exercised options for 2,160 shares of Common Stock. Mr. Halprin subsequently transferred such shares of Common Stock to OSCCO. No other Reporting Person has effected a transaction in the Common Stock during the sixty days preceding the date of this Schedule 13D.
(d) Not applicable. (e) Not applicable.
6. ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS
WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
On September 9, 1999, in connection with the purchase of the
Debentures, OSCCO, along with holders of a majority of the "Registrable Securities" under the Issuer's prior registration rights agreement, entered into the 1999 Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. Under the Rights Agreement, OSCCO and the other holders of Registrable Securities have (a) piggyback registration rights to participate, at the Issuer's expense, in any registration by the Issuer for its own account or for the account of any stockholder (other than registrations on Form S-8 or Form S-4) and (b) the right
to require the Issuer to register, at its expense, the sale of the Registrable Securities on Form S-3, subject to certain conditions.
Other than as described above, and other than the agreements governing
OSCCO and OSCCO Management (which agreements apply to securities in general and not specifically to the Issuer's securities), to the best of each of the Reporting Person's knowledge, no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) exist among the persons named in Item 2 or among such persons and any other person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to, the transfer or voting of any such securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or
calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
7. ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.
The following exhibits are filed herewith:
1. 1999 Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement dated as of
September 9, 1999, which is incorporated herein by reference to the Issuer's Report on 8-K (File No. 000-23289) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 24, 1999.
