ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS.

         On August 12, 2002, Enstar Income Program II-1, L.P. (the
"Partnership") commenced the solicitation of consents of the holders of the
limited partnership units of the Partnership. In the consent solicitation, the
unitholders are being to vote upon three proposals, which together constitute a
plan of liquidation for the Partnership. The three proposals are:

     o            the sale of all of the Partnership's cable television systems
                  and related assets to an affiliate of the corporate general
                  partner of the Partnership for a sale price of
                  approximately $14,707, in cash, subject to closing
                  adjustments;

     o            the amendment of the Partnership's partnership agreement to
                  permit the sale of the Partnership's cable television system
                  and related assets to an affiliate of the corporate general
                  partner of the Partnership; and

     o            the subsequent dissolution, termination and liquidation of the
                  Partnership through one or more liquidating distributions to
                  the general partners and the unitholders in accordance with
                  the partnership agreement of the Partnership.

         Each of the three proposals will be voted upon individually. However,
none of the proposals will become effective unless each of the three proposals
is approved by the holders of a majority of the limited partnership units.

         Holders of limited partnership units on the close of business on August
9, 2002 are entitled to consent to the proposals.

         The consent solicitation period will end at 5:00 p.m., New York city
time, on the earlier of (i) the date on which the consents of the holders of a
majority of the units entitled to consent are received or (ii) September 23,
2002 (or such later date to which the corporate general partner of the
Partnership extends the solicitation period).

         It is estimated that pre-tax liquidating distributions to the
unitholders will total approximately $473 per limited partnership unit, after
estimated closing adjustments and closing and liquidation expenses, and subject
to applicable withholding taxes. However, there can be no assurance as to the
actual amount to be distributed per limited partnership unit. The exact amount
to be distributed per limited partnership unit is subject to a number of
factors, including the amount of the closing adjustments, which cannot be
determined with certainty at this time.

         The Partnership currently anticipates that the sale of its cable
television system and related assets will close in the third quarter of 2002 and
that the initial liquidating distribution will be made approximately 60 days
after closing. The Partnership currently anticipates that the final liquidating
distribution will be made approximately six months after the closing of the sale
of the cable television system and related assets.

         The foregoing description of the consent solicitation does not purport
to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the consent
solicitation statement included as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.
