WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY AND

YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO SEND US A PROXY

Our Board of Directors is furnishing this information statement to all holders of record of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) and our preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”), as of the close of business on April 8, 2006 to inform all stockholders of the approval of the Merger (defined below) and the subsequent filing of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation attached hereto as Annex A.

Going Private Transaction

Overview

Opta will accomplish the Going Private Transaction by completing the following steps:

(1)          Opta will form a wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) of Opta. The Subsidiary will be incorporated in the State of Delaware upon the filing of the form of Certificate of Incorporation of Subsidiary attached hereto as Annex B. (See the section entitled “Basic Terms” and Annex B.)

(2)          The Subsidiary will merge (the “Merger”) with and into Opta upon the terms set forth in the Agreement of Merger attached hereto as Annex C. Upon the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of the Merger, the Subsidiary will cease to exist and Opta will be the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”). The Subsidiary’s Certificate of Incorporation, attached hereto as Annex B, will be the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation upon the Effective Date of the Merger. (See the section entitled “Basic Terms” and Annex B and Annex C.)

(3)          As of April 8, 2006 the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Corporation consists of 50,037,538 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 4,300 shares of Class A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each share of Common Stock or Preferred Stock (a “Pre-Merger Share”), upon the Effective Date of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder, will convert into one-five-thousandth (1/5,000) of a share of Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation (the “Exchange Ratio”). (See the sections entitled “Basic Terms” and Effective Time of the Going Private Transaction.”)

(4)          Any holder holding less than 5,000 Pre-Merger Shares will, after the Effective Date of the Merger, have their resulting fractional interests cancelled and converted into the right to receive $0.03 in cash for each Pre-Merger Share (“Cash Consideration”) held by such holder. (See the sections entitled “Basic Terms” and “Stock Certificates” for more details.)

(5)          Immediately following the Merger, the Surviving Corporation shall file a Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation in the form attached hereto as Annex A (the “Restated Certificate”) and upon the effectiveness of such Restated Certificate (the “Effective Date of the Restated Certificate”) any surviving fractional interests attached to whole shares will be reconverted in a 5,000-for-1 forward stock split of the Surviving Corporation’s then outstanding Common Stock such that any holder who

1

held at least 5,000 Pre-Merger Shares will hold the same number of shares of the Surviving Corporation after the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate. (See the sections entitled “Basic Terms” and “Stock Certificates” and Annex A for more details.)

Hereafter, the above five steps are referred to collectively as the “Going Private Transaction.”

As a result of this Going Private Transaction, Opta will substantially reduce its total number of stockholders, which will permit it to terminate registration under the Exchange Act, suspend its status as a reporting company with the Commission, and become a privately held company, which will allow it to eliminate public reporting costs and compliance with burdensome regulations. If consummated, the Going Private Transaction would enable us to provide liquidity to certain stockholders, terminate registration under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act and suspend our duty to file reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act (“Periodic Reporting Obligations”). Following the Going Private Transaction, we expect that stockholders who will receive Cash Consideration for their fractional interests will receive such Cash Consideration within approximately 60 days after the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate. (See the sections entitled “Effects if Going Private Transaction is Not Consummated,” “Stock Certificates,” “Source of Funds and Financial Effect of the Going Private Transaction,” “Fees and Expenses,” “Accounting Consequences” and “Regulatory Filings and Approvals” for more details.)

As a result of this Going Private Transaction:

•                  All stockholders who own less than one share of stock upon the Effective Date of the Merger will be entitled to receive Cash Consideration; and

•                  Stockholders who own more than one share of common stock, upon the Effective Date of the Merger, will, upon the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate, retain the same number of whole shares of the Surviving Corporation owned by those stockholders before the Going Private Transaction. (See the section entitled “Stock Certificates” for more details.)

Purpose of the Going Private Transaction

The purpose of the Going Private Transaction is to allow the Company to terminate registration under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, suspend its duty to file reports with the Commission and become a private company. The Going Private Transaction will enable us to terminate our Periodic Reporting Obligations so that we may continue future operations as a private company, relieving us of the costs, administrative burdens and competitive disadvantages associated with operating as a public company. Following the adoption of Sarbanes-Oxley, the amount of management time and Company resources required to comply with such requirements have become overly burdensome for a company of our size. We intend to accomplish this purpose by reducing the number of holders of record to fewer than 300 by cashing out the fractional interests resulting from the Going Private Transaction.

Independent Fairness Opinion and Valuation

Our Board of Directors has engaged Cronkite & Kissell LLC (“Cronkite & Kissell”) to provide a valuation of our Company and to opine as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration, in the amount of $0.03 per Pre-Merger Share to be received by the stockholders holding less than 5,000 Pre-Merger Shares.

2

Approval of Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors believes the Going Private Transaction is in the best interest of, and substantively and procedurally fair to, our stockholders, who will be redeemed pursuant to the Going Private Transaction. Our Board of Directors further concluded that the advantages of the Going Private Transaction to the stockholders far outweighed the disadvantages, and that it was substantively and procedurally fair to them, and, therefore, that the transaction was in all of our stockholders’ best interests. The members of our Board of Directors who have no affiliation with any stockholders of Opta separately analyzed and approved the Going Private Transaction. Separate review by such directors is described further in the section “Interest of Certain Persons in or Opposition to Matters to Be Acted Upon.”  On April 8, 2006, our Board of Directors unanimously adopted resolutions authorizing and approving the Going Private Transaction. The Board of Directors reserved the right to abandon the Going Private Transaction at any time prior to the Effective Date of the Merger or Restated Certificate, as applicable.

Approval of Stockholders

As of April 8, 2006, we had approximately 800 stockholders of record holding an aggregate of 50,037,538 shares of Common Stock and one stockholder holding an aggregate of 4,300 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding as of the Record Date. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote per share, voting as a single class. The proposed actions to implement the Going Private Transaction requires the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of a simple majority of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock and our Preferred Stock as of the Record Date, voting as one class of stock. As described above, stockholders owning approximately 51.2% of the outstanding capital stock have consented in writing to the Going Private Transaction.

Estimated Effective Time of Going Private Transaction

We anticipate that the Going Private Transaction will become effective on or about                , 200  . However, in no event will the effective time of the Going Private Transaction (the “Effective Time”) be consummated earlier than the twentieth calendar day after this information statement is sent or given to those persons or entities that held Opta stock as of the Record Date.

Implementation and Effects of Going Private Transaction

Every holder of record of Common Stock and Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive one share of the Surviving Corporation’s common stock in exchange for every 5,000 shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock held by that holder immediately prior to the Effective Date of the Merger. All holders of resulting fractional interests after the Effective Date of the Merger (“Cashed-Out Stockholders”), will receive the Cash Consideration at the rate of $0.03 for each Pre-Merger Share. Immediately following the Merger and upon the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate, any surviving fractional interests attached to whole shares will be reconverted in a 5,000-for-1 forward stock split of the Surviving Corporation’s then outstanding Common Stock into the same number of whole shares owned by those holders before the Merger.

Our shares are currently traded on the Pink Sheets, although trading has been extremely minimal, and our shares may continue to be so traded after the Going Private Transaction.

In addition, in connection with the Merger, the Subsidiary’s Certificate of Incorporation will become the Certificate of Incorporation of the Surviving Corporation as attached hereto. The

3

Surviving Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation will not include any preferred stock class. As a result, the Company will only have common stock. The filing of the Restated Certificate will effect the 5,000-for-1 forward stock split, but otherwise will not provide for any other substantive changes.

Information About our Company

The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 1350 Bayshore Highway, Suite 600, Burlingame, CA 94010 and our phone number is (650) 579-3610. The filing person is the subject company.

SPECIAL FACTORS

The Going Private Transaction

Basic Terms

Under the terms of the Going Private Transaction, every holder of record of Common Stock or Preferred Stock as of the Effective Time will be entitled to receive one share of the Surviving Corporation’s common stock in exchange for every 5,000 shares of Opta Common Stock or Preferred Stock held by such person. All Cashed-Out Stockholders will receive the Cash Consideration. Immediately following the Merger and upon the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate, any surviving fractional interests attached to whole shares will be reconverted in a 5,000-for-1 forward stock split of the Surviving Corporation’s then outstanding Common Stock into the same number of whole shares owned by those holders before the Merger.

Because of the limited trading market for our Common Stock a stockholder is unable to purchase enough shares on the open market to avoid becoming a Cashed-Out Stockholder as a result of the Going Private Transaction and will be unable to retain an equity interest in our Company.

The Going Private Transaction is structured to be a Rule 13e-3 transaction under the Exchange Act because it is intended to, and if completed, will reduce the number of record holders of Opta to fewer than 300, which will position us to suspend our Periodic Reporting Obligations. In connection with the Going Private Transaction, we will file a Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 with the Commission. We intend to apply for the termination of our Periodic Reporting Obligations as soon as practicable after the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate by filing a Form 15 with the Commission.

Effective Time of the Going Private Transaction

We anticipate that the Going Private Transaction will become effective on or about            , 200   . However, in no event will the Going Private Transaction become effective earlier than the twentieth calendar day after this information statement is sent or given to those persons or entities that held Opta stock as of the Record Date.

Approval of the Going Private Transaction By Our Board of Directors and Stockholders

Our Board of Directors, including a separate analysis and approval by members of our Board of Directors who have no affiliation with our majority stockholders, has approved the Going Private Transaction and reserved the right to abandon the Going Private Transaction at any time prior to the Effective Time. Under the Delaware General Corporation Law and our bylaws, our stockholders may approve the Going Private Transaction without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote if a written consent is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote on the action were present and voted. As described above, stockholders owning a majority of the outstanding capital stock have consented in writing to the Going Private Transaction.

Effects if Going Private Transaction is Not Consummated

If the Going Private Transaction is not consummated, our Periodic Reporting Obligations will continue, and we will not benefit from the substantial reduction in general and administrative costs associated with being a non-reporting company. In addition, our senior management will have to continue to devote significant time to our Periodic Reporting Obligations, which they will not be able to devote to other Company operations.

5

Stock Certificates

Our transfer agent, Colonial Stock Transfer, has been appointed as our exchange agent to carry out the exchange of existing stock certificates for new stock certificates and to deliver the Cash Consideration. Promptly following the Effective Time, the transfer agent will send a letter of transmittal to each affected stockholder. The letter will describe the procedures for surrendering stock certificates in exchange for new stock certificates and/or the Cash Consideration. Upon receipt of the stock certificates and properly completed letters of transmittal, the transfer agent will issue the appropriate new stock certificates and/or pay the appropriate Cash Consideration within approximately 60 days of the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate.

No service charges, or commissions, will be payable by our stockholders in connection with the exchange of certificates or the payment of Cash Consideration because we will bear those expenses. We will not pay interest on cash sums due to any stockholder in connection with the Going Private Transaction.

All stock certificates evidencing ownership of Pre-Merger Shares will be deemed cancelled without further action by their holders as of the Effective Date of the Merger. Please do not send any stock certificates to our transfer agent or us in connection with the Going Private Transaction until you receive and complete a letter of transmittal.

Opta and its Board intend for the Going Private Transaction to treat stockholders holding Opta stock in street name through a nominee in the same manner as stockholders whose shares are registered in their names. Nominees are instructed to effect the Going Private Transaction for their beneficial holders. However, nominees may have different procedures and therefore, stockholders holding shares in street name should contact their nominees.

Provision for Unaffiliated Stockholders

The Company has not made any provision in connection with the Going Private Transaction to grant unaffiliated stockholders access to our corporate files or to obtain counsel or appraisal services for such stockholders. A majority of directors who are not Opta employees did not retain an unaffiliated representative to act solely on behalf of the unaffiliated stockholders for purposes of negotiating the Going Private Transaction or preparing a report concerning the fairness of the Going Private Transaction. No officers or directors own any securities of Opta.

Past Transactions and Developments During the Current Fiscal Year

Opta and two of its significant subsidiaries, Correlant Communications, Inc (“Correlant”) and Opta Systems, LLC d/b/a GoVideo (“Opta Systems” or “GoVideo”) entered into significant transactions during the current fiscal year to downsize and streamline consolidated business in an attempt to direct the Company toward profitability. The following is a summary of these transactions.

Dissolution of Correlant

As reported in our Form 8-K as filed on July 21, 2005, on July 18, 2005, the Board of Directors of Correlant Communications (“Correlant”) approved the dissolution of Correlant, pending

6

approval by the Correlant shareholders. At a Special Meeting of Shareholders held August 5, 2005, Correlant shareholders approved the dissolution of Correlant. At the time of the dissolution, Opta held 10,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of Correlant and approximately 13,900,000 shares of common stock of Correlant. To date, Opta has received liquidation proceeds of $10,000,000 for its Series D preferred stock and $1,276,000 for its common stock.

Correlant’s and Opta’s Intercompany Debt

On July 5, 2005, Opta entered into a loan and security agreement with Correlant for $200,000 bearing interest at 6.00% per annum, maturing on June 2, 2006 and secured by Opta’s entire ownership interest in DigiTech. On July 26, 2005, Opta entered into an additional loan and security agreement with Correlant for $5,000,000 bearing interest at 2.75% per annum, maturing on December 31, 2005, and secured by 6,000 shares of Correlant Series D preferred stock held by Opta. On August 19, 2005 Opta repaid the entire $5,200,000 principal balance and accrued interest using the proceeds received from the Series D preferred stock liquidation as discussed above.

GoVideo’s Debt Restructuring

As reported in our Form 8-K as filed on July 29, 2005, on July 26, 2005, we entered into a series of transactions involving and relating to GoVideo. Each of such transactions was conditioned upon each other and the consummation of such transactions was deemed to occur simultaneously.

As previously reported, on July 26, 2005 pursuant to a Participation Agreement (the “Participation Agreement”) between us and Wells Fargo Business Credit, a division of Wells Fargo Bank, NA (“Wells”), we acquired an 80% participation interest in the credit facility of our wholly-owned subsidiary, GoVideo, under the Credit and Security Agreement dated as of July 21, 2003, as amended to date (the “Wells Credit Agreement”) between GoVideo and Wells. On October 13, 2005, we amended the Participation Agreement to provide for revolving advances in an amount up to $2,000,000 over the borrowing base (such revolving advances over the borrowing base to be referred to as “Overline Advances”) and as a result, our participation percentage was 80% with respect to the revolving advances that were not Overline Advances and 100% with respect to Overline Advances. The maximum amount of the line of credit remained at $4,000,000. Concurrently with the purchase of the participation and our collateral deposit of $800,000 in cash collateral to secure our obligations and guaranty of the Wells Credit Agreement, Wells released its lien on the intellectual property assets of GoVideo under the Wells Credit Agreement.

Pursuant to a forbearance agreement dated July 22, 2005, most recently amended by Wells January 20, 2006, between GoVideo and Wells (the “Forbearance Agreement”), Wells agreed to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies with respect to existing defaults under the Wells Credit Agreement from the date of the agreement through January 27, 2006 and modify certain terms of the Wells Credit Agreement, including reducing the maximum line of credit to $4,000,000 and waiving the termination fee. Wells also agreed that defaults by GoVideo under financial covenants in the Wells Credit Agreement and with respect to material adverse changes will not constitute new defaults under that agreement. As a condition to the forbearance by Wells, GoVideo agreed to pay to Wells a fee of $300,000 by adding the fee to the loan’s principal balance in two installments, $150,000 on September 2, 2005 and $150,000 on January 4, 2006. Opta agreed to enter into the Participation Agreement and to deposit $800,000 in cash collateral to secure Opta’s guaranty as described above.

7

On January 27, 2006, pursuant to a Loan Sale Agreement dated January 20, 2006 between Opta and Wells, the Participation Agreement was terminated and Opta purchased the entire right, title and interest of Wells under, and Opta became the Lender under, the Wells Credit Agreement. The purchase price was $2,148,000, which consisted of the following: $2,113,000 principal, $23,000 interest and unused line of credit fees, and $12,000 legal and audit fees incurred by Wells. The full amount of Opta’s participation interest was credited against such purchase price. On February 1, 2006, Opta, as such Lender, and GoVideo further amended the Forbearance Agreement to extend the Forbearance Period to April 30, 2006, and to terminate the guaranty and the subordination agreement previously delivered by Opta to Wells under the Credit Agreement.

Pursuant to a purchase and sale agreement dated July 26, 2005 (the “TCLMM Agreement”) among GoVideo, TCL Multimedia Technology Holdings Limited, a Cayman Islands company with shares listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (“TCLMM”), TCL Industries, Asia Focus Industrial Limited (“Asia Focus”) and Opta, TCLMM agreed to assume the debt obligations owed by GoVideo to TCL Industries and Asia Focus under three promissory notes, with obligations totaling approximately $11,000,000 at July 26, 2005 (“Existing Obligations”). The Existing Obligations were previously guaranteed by Opta, and secured by Opta’s pledge of 100% of the Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock of Correlant, held by Opta. Pursuant to the TCLMM Agreement, TCL Industries and Asia Focus released Opta’s obligations as guarantor under the Existing Obligations and released Opta’s pledge of the Correlant shares.

In consideration for TCLMM’s assumption of the Existing Obligations, GoVideo (i) assigned to TCLMM all of GoVideo’s right, title and interest in and to certain significant intellectual property assets of GoVideo (the “GoVideo IP”) and (ii) issued a promissory note in favor of TCLMM (the “TCLMM Note”) for an initial principal amount of $1,000,000, representing the preliminary difference between the value of the GoVideo IP, as determined by a third-party appraiser, and the Existing Obligations assumed by TCLMM. A subsequent independent appraisal of the GoVideo IP was completed, which reduced the final valuation of the GoVideo IP by $700,000. As a result, the TCLMM Note automatically increased to $1,700,000.

The TCLMM Note principal and interest, at a monthly rate of 0.257%, was originally due and payable on January 26, 2006. Pursuant to the TCLMM Agreement, GoVideo had granted to TCLMM a subordinated lien on all of GoVideo’s assets, as security for the TCLMM Note, junior to the lien under the Wells Credit Agreement. In addition, Opta had agreed to guaranty GoVideo’s obligations under the TCLMM Note pursuant to a Guaranty dated July 26, 2005. GoVideo paid the principal and interest on the TCLMM Note in full on February 14, 2006.

Under the TCLMM Agreement, TCLMM granted to GoVideo a 90-day, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use the GoVideo IP on a royalty-free basis. On August 30, 2005, GoVideo and TCLMM entered into an exclusive license agreement through October 24, 2008, with an automatic renewal for subsequent two year terms unless terminated by either party by ninety days written notice of intention not to renew. Under the terms of the agreement, GoVideo agreed to pay TCLMM a royalty based on the cost of goods sold in connection with the distribution, sale, advertising and promotion of certain consumer electronics products under the GoVideo tradename. GoVideo did not collect and forward any royalties to TCLMM from July 26, 2005 until January 12, 2006. The GoVideo’s license agreement with TCLMM was subsequently terminated (See “Restructuring of GoVideo’s Operations” below).

TCLMM and Asia Focus are affiliates of TCL Industries, a stockholder controlling a majority of the outstanding shares of Opta. Two of Opta’s directors, Messrs. Li Dongsheng and Vincent Yan, are affiliated with TCL Industries, TCLMM and Asia Focus. The remaining two members of the

8

Opta Board of Directors, Professor Zuoquan Lin and Mr. James Jian Liu, who are not affiliated with TCL Industries or its affiliates, participated in the negotiations and separately approved the transaction on behalf of the Opta Board of Directors.

GoVideo’s debt was restructured to reduce GoVideo’s debt and its interest costs. The following table summarizes the amount of debt owed by GoVideo to different entities, both before and after the debt restructuring transactions, and the current balance:

To summarize, in return for GoVideo’s transferring the GoVideo IP to TCLMM and GoVideo’s issuing the TCLMM Note in the amount of $1,000,000, increased to $1,700,000 as a result of completing the second third-party evaluation, to TCLMM, TCLMM assumed GoVideo’s obligations under the TCL Industries and Asia Focus promissory notes. As a result of TCL Industries and Asia Focus being repaid on their respective notes, they released their pledge on the shares of Correlant held by Opta. Upon Correlant’s dissolution, Opta was then able to receive its $10,000,000 Preferred Series D liquidation distribution from Correlant.

Restructuring GoVideo’s Operations

During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, GoVideo began shutting down its historical operations as an original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) because the business model required significant working capital to meet inventory needs and also carried a substantial risk of obsolete inventory. In anticipation of implementing a new business model as a brand licensing provider for domestic retail consumer electronics, GoVideo entered a license agreement with TCLMM, in which TCLMM licensed the GoVideo IP to GoVideo in exchange for certain royalty payments, as described above. However, on December 28, 2005, TCLMM notified GoVideo of its intention to exercise its right to unilaterally terminate the agreement without cause upon ninety days’ written notice pursuant to the terms of the agreement. GoVideo agreed to terminate the agreement effective as of January 12, 2006 in order for Opta to continue the brand licensing business under a new license agreement with TCLMM (see below). The shut down of GoVideo’s historical operations as a consumer electronics OEM was substantially completed by January 31, 2006. GoVideo’s short term business plan has focused on collecting receivables and managing liabilities that remain outstanding from GoVideo’s historical operations.

Opta’s Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Opta entered into an exclusive license agreement with TCLMM to distribute, sell, advertise and promote consumer electronics products under trademarks associated with the GoVideo tradename as part of the strategic shift toward becoming a brand licensing provider for domestic retail consumer electronics. There was no consideration paid in connection with this agreement. However, under the terms of the agreement, Opta will pay TCLMM a royalty based on the cost of

9

goods sold in connection with the distribution, sale, advertising and promotion of certain consumer electronics products under trademarks associated with the GoVideo tradename. Opta did not collect and forward any royalties to TCLMM from January 12, 2006 until April 30, 2006.

As a result of focusing on the above, the completion of Opta’s Going Private Transaction and Periodic Reporting Obligations was negatively impacted and took longer than originally anticipated. Additionally, consummating the transactions was time consuming, required significantly more cash and resources, both internal and external, than the Company originally forecasted and decreased the current value of the Company. And although the above transactions had a negative impact on the Company’s current valuation, they were necessary to keep the Company viable in the short run and as a first step toward moving the Company toward profitability in the long run.

Interest of Certain Persons in or Opposition to Matters to Be Acted Upon

Two of Opta’s directors, Li Dongsheng and Vincent Yan, are also directors of TCL Corp. Mr. Li Dongsheng serves as the Chairman of the TCL Corp and TCLMM board of directors. Both Mr. Li Dongsheng and Mr. Vincent Yan hold positions with TCL Corp-affiliated companies, including TCLMM. As a result of the Going Private Transaction, the ownership percentage of TCL Industries and LIH will increase from 32.0% and 19.2%, respectively, to approximately 33.6% and 20.1%, respectively. TCL Industries and LIH have consented in writing to approve the Going Private Transaction. Because the ownership percentage of TCL Corp-affiliated stockholders will slightly increase as a result of the Going Private Transaction, Opta engaged Cronkite & Kissell, an independent financial advisor, to opine as to the fairness of the Going Private Transaction to all the stockholders of the Company, including those not affiliated with TCL Corp. In addition, Messrs. Lin and Liu, the two other members of our Board of Directors who are not affiliated with TCL Corp, separately analyzed the advantages, disadvantages and consequences of the proposed Going Private Transaction. After their analyses, they separately approved the Going Private Transaction.

Transactions in Opta Stock

Since September 2003, Opta has repurchased approximately 6,935,857 shares of its common stock at $0.30 per share, all of which occurred from September 2003 through June 2004. Each of such repurchases were separately negotiated transactions and were made in connection with the takeover of Correlant. Specifically, in September 2003, Opta repurchased 4,241,334 shares of common stock from former Correlant shareholders located in Taiwan at $0.30 per share. In February 2004, Opta repurchased an aggregate of 2,445,253 shares of common stock from former Correlant shareholders, employees and management located in the United States at $0.30 per share and with respect to one former director of Opta, his repurchase was conditioned upon his resignation as Opta director. In June 2004, Opta repurchased 249,270 shares of common stock from two former Correlant employees. In connection with all of the above-described repurchases, each of the parties released the other (including in the case of Opta, its subsidiaries and affiliates) from any and all claims relating to the Company or such stockholders’ ownership of the shares.

In August 2004, Opta reached a settlement with TurboComm Technologies, Inc (“TurboComm”) and under the terms of such settlement agreement, TurboComm delivered 686,000 shares of Opta common stock, constituting all shares of Opta owned by TurboComm, and both parties mutually agreed to release and discharge any and all claims that each may have against the other party.

Source of Funds and Financial Effect of the Going Private Transaction

We estimate that the fractional interests being cancelled in the Going Private Transaction would aggregate up to approximately 2,800,000 Pre-Merger Shares, resulting in total Cash Consideration to Cashed-Out Stockholders of up to approximately $84,013. We believe that there are approximately 2,357,813 shares held by some stockholders who are on the Objecting Beneficial Shareowners (OBO) list, but we do not know exactly how many of such stockholders there are. The Cash Consideration for approximately 442,608 Pre-Merger Shares held by identifiable stockholders totals $13,278 and assuming that the 2,357,813 shares on the OBO list are held by as many as 2,357,813 holders, the total Cash Consideration could be up to $84,013 ($13,278 for the identifiable stockholders plus up to $70,734 for the holders on the OBO list). We expect to pay the Cash Consideration in connection with the Going Private Transaction and other expenses for the Going Private Transaction through our available cash and short term borrowings. The Going Private Transaction and the related use of cash to complete the Going Private Transaction, which includes professional fees and other expenses related to the transaction and Cash Consideration to be made to certain stockholders, are not expected to adversely affect in any material respect our capitalization, liquidity, results of operations or cash flow.

Following the Going Private Transaction, we plan to suspend our Periodic Reporting Obligations, which means that our stock will not qualify to be traded on any automated quotation system, operated by a national securities association and will not be qualified to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board.

We believe the Going Private Transaction will be treated as to us as a tax-free “recapitalization” for federal income tax purposes, which will result in no material federal income tax consequences to us. Depending on each stockholder’s individual situation, the Going Private Transaction may give rise to certain income tax consequences for stockholders. More details regarding potential tax consequence are set forth in the section “Material Federal Income Tax Consequences” below.

Fees and Expenses

The following is a reasonably itemized statement of the fees and expenses that have been incurred or that are estimated to be incurred in connection with the Going Private Transaction and the transactions related thereto: up to $84,013 in Cash Consideration to the Cashed-Out Stockholders; $300,000 to our legal counsel; $38,000 for the preparation and issuance of a fairness opinion by Cronkite & Kissell; and $35,000 for other expenses.

Accounting Consequences

The Going Private Transaction will not affect the par value of our Common Stock, which remains $0.001 per share. And although the Going Private Transaction will result in an increase in per share net income or loss and net book value of our Common Stock because fewer shares of our Common Stock will be outstanding, the change will be insignificant because the estimated decrease in the number of Pre-Merger Shares is immaterial in comparison to the number of shares that will remain outstanding subsequent to the Going Private Transaction.

Regulatory Filings and Approvals

We are not aware of any license or regulatory permit that appears to be material to our business that might be adversely affected by the Going Private Transaction, nor any approval or other

11

action by any governmental, administrative or regulatory agency or authority, domestic or foreign, that would be required to consummate the Going Private Transaction, other than approvals, filings or notices required under federal and state securities laws and the corporate laws of the State of Delaware.

We will file a Schedule 13E-3 with the Commission to notify the Commission of our intent to go private. We anticipate that following the completion of the Going Private Transaction and the filing of a Form 15 with the Commission, our Periodic Reporting Obligations will immediately terminate.

Purpose of the Going Private Transaction

The purpose of the Going Private Transaction is to enable Opta to terminate its Periodic Reporting Obligations and enable us to continue future operations as a private company, thereby relieving us of the costs, administrative burdens and competitive disadvantages associated with operating as a public company. We intend to accomplish this purpose by reducing the number of holders of record to fewer than 300 by cashing out the resulting fractional interests after the Merger.

Because the results of a Going Private Transaction are more predictable and automatic as compared to other alternatives of ways to complete the process of going private, our Board of Directors believes that the Going Private Transaction is the most expeditious and economical way of reducing the number of holders of record to fewer than 300 thereby positioning us to effect the termination of our Periodic Reporting Obligations.

Consideration by the Board of Directors

As previously reported, on June 29, 2001, a majority of the Company’s stockholders, led by TCL Corp, were successful in gaining control of the Company and replacing prior management of the Company. On June 29, 2001, new directors and officers were appointed and the then existing directors and officers were immediately removed from office.

Following the replacement of prior management, the new management began an extensive review of various transactions undertaken by and involving old management prior to June 29, 2001. Due to the preliminary results, the Company dismissed its then existing independent accountants and replaced such firm with new independent accountants. On March 25, 2002, the new independent accountants were engaged to audit fiscal 2002. As previously reported, during its preliminary investigation, new management of the Company identified various transactions undertaken by prior management which impacted reported financial and operating results with respect to its consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 and ultimately concluded that a reaudit of the financial statements for fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 was required. On July 24, 2002, the Company engaged its new independent accountants, to perform such reaudit and the Company concluded that it must restate these prior periods. As a result, the Company was unable to timely file its Form 10-K for fiscal 2002. On November 5, 2002, the Company’s shares were removed from the OTC Bulletin Board for failure to comply with NASD Rule 6530. Although Opta filed its Form 10-K for fiscal 2002 on April 16, 2004, the Company was not eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board until it became current in all its required filings. Since the time the Company’s stock was delisted, trading has been sporadic and minimal, and there is no established public trading market for our stock. For example, during the one year period from April 1, 2005 to March 31, 2006, there were only 57 transactions with 836,801 shares in total traded. Of the 251 trading days during this period, 196 days had only quotes but no trades. During the three months

12

period from January 1, 2006 to March 31, 2006, there were only 4 transactions with 33,703 shares in total traded. As a result, many of Opta’s stockholders have expressed concern to management regarding the lack of liquidity and ability to trade Opta’s stock. Opta’s Board of Directors determined that maintaining the public company status imposed significant costs and required considerable attention from, and resources of, management with no significant benefit to liquidity.

Additionally, the future reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”), including Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley, are expected to significantly increase the cost and management burden of remaining a public company. The Company’s Board of Directors determined that terminating the Periodic Reporting Obligations before having to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley future reporting requirements would result in substantial cost savings while allowing management to focus on business operations, which would help us maximize stockholder value. In order to terminate our Periodic Reporting Obligations, we must reduce the number of record holders to fewer than 300.

The possibilities of going private and other strategic alternatives for the Company were first contemplated by current management, including Vincent Yan, President and CEO of the Company, following the replacement of prior management of the Company in 2001. However, because of the Company’s delay in filing its Form 10-K for the fiscal 2002 following the reaudit of financial statements discussed above, the Company was not current in its Periodic Reporting Obligations and therefore was unable to pursue a going private transaction under these circumstances. Management therefore made completion of the reaudit its priority and discussions regarding going private were postponed indefinitely until the Company became current in its Periodic Reporting Obligations.

Following the filing of the Form 10-K for fiscal 2004 on February 14, 2005, Mr. Yan initiated discussions regarding the possibility of going private with other directors including Messrs. Li, Liu and Lin through various telephone calls in March 2005. During those conversations, Mr. Yan expressed two main concerns: (1) the continuing operating loss of GoVideo would provide little liquidity to the Company’s stockholders in the public market even if the Company was listed on OTC Bulletin Board, and (2) the high burden of accounting and legal cost associated with maintaining the Company’s public status. During this period of time, Mr. Yan directed the management to study the possibility of listing the company on the NASDAQ Stock Market as a small cap company, but the result of such research showed that the Company lacked several conditions required in order to be qualified as a NASDAQ listed company. At that time, both management and the Board also considered moving Opta’s listing to the OTC Bulletin Board as an alternative to provide liquidity to stockholders. However, after management reviewed the performance of Opta’s business operations and the lack of trading volume in the Company’s stock, management concluded that the investing public would likely continue to have little or marginal interest in Opta’s stock. Additionally, net loss attributable to GoVideo, Opta’s main operating subsidiary, was more than $10 million in calendar year 2004 and $2.2 million in the first two months of 2005. Management and the Board believed that it would be extremely difficult for Opta to raise funds through public financing, while Opta continued to bear high accounting, legal and other costs in order to maintain its public status. Consequently, Mr. Yan urged the Board to takes steps to preserve stockholders value and proposed that the Company go private.

At the same time, management and the Board considered alternatives other than going private. These considerations included pursuing strategic alternatives, such as identifying potential candidates to buy the company, further cost-cutting measures and relying on the cash flow from operating subsidiaries to fund the increased costs to maintain company’s public status. Starting in

13

2005, management investigated strategic opportunities, but has been unable to find a suitable opportunity. Further, in evaluating GoVideo’s ongoing operating costs, continuing losses and the effects of previous cost reduction efforts, Opta management determined that GoVideo would be required to shut down its historical business model of selling consumer electronics and focus on collecting receivables and managing liabilities that remained outstanding from GoVideo’s historical operations. Management concluded that such cash flows were not sufficient to offset the increasing costs to maintain the Company’s public status. The Going Private Transaction was therefore the most attractive alternative.

After initial discussions in March 2005, Messrs. Li and Yan favored the proposal of going private on the grounds that the Company should preserve its limited resources to devote to the development of the Company’s business operations. Messrs. Liu and Lin, the non-affiliated directors and members of Audit Committee, had initial reservations for the proposal of going private. They believed that the potential benefits of maintaining a public company status would be lost once the Company went private, and they also wanted to make more thorough investigations regarding the results of the Company’s business operations. Another issue agreed upon by all the Board members in March 2005 is that the Company seek opportunities to identify potential buyers or strategic partners and the management was directed to do so.

In April and May 2005, Messrs. Liu and Lin conducted their own assessments. Each of them had several telephone discussions with Sean Wang, COO of the Company, who also favored the proposal of going private. The focus of their reviews was (1) the cost incurred to Opta in maintaining public status, and (2) the possibility of turning around GoVideo’s business operations in the near future. They also met Sean Wang in China when Mr. Wang visited there in May 2005. During their meetings, they discussed in detail the future business plan of GoVideo. In May 2005, Mr. Liu also visited GoVideo’s headquarters in Arizona to gain first-hand information about GoVideo’s operations. On the basis of their previous knowledge and the results of their inquiries, they concluded that the current business model of GoVideo would be unable to make Opta a profitable business entity.

In May 2005, Professor Lin had several lengthy telephone conversations with accountants of the Company’s internal accounting staff regarding the Company’s financial status and the annual cost in maintaining the company’s public status. Mr. Lin concluded that the Company could save up to $1,000,000 a year in accounting, legal and other consultant bills if it was a private company, and taking into consideration the effect of compliance with the existing and future requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. On April 7, 2005 and May 17, 2005, Messrs. Liu and Lin, as members of the Audit Committee, had two separate meetings by telephone conference call with the Company’s independent auditors with no other directors or officers of the Company participating.

After these inquiries, both Messrs. Liu and Lin concluded that: (1) going private would serve the best interest for the stockholders and the management should immediately start the going private procedure; and (2) if the Company’s business operation became profitable in the future, going public could always be an option for the stockholders, but the Company’s current priority was to preserve its limited resources to the existing business operations.

On May 27, 2005, each of the directors, including Messrs. Liu and Lin, authorized Sean Wang, COO, to engage Cronkite & Kissell to conduct an independent evaluation of the Company’s common stock.

14

Cronkite & Kissell delivered its initial valuation opinion on June 14, 2005. In its initial opinion, Cronkite & Kissell considered the fair market value of the common stock of the Company to be $0.10 per share. After being advised that the cash consideration to cash-out a sufficient number of shares to terminate the Company’s Periodic Reporting Obligations were reasonably estimated to be between $80,000 and $250,000, the Board initially determined that $0.12, representing a 20% premium over the independently evaluated price, would be appropriate. After further consultations with management and the Company’s legal counsel, on June 17, 2005, the Board unanimously decided to approve a repurchase price of the shares at $0.13 per share.

In determining the $0.13 per share price, the Board considered (1) the June 14, 2005 valuation report presented orally by Cronkite & Kissell, and (2) market price of the Company’s share on the Pink Sheets. The non-affiliated directors accepted the Cronkite & Kissell report because they believed that the valuation results were similar to the results of their own investigations in the preceding months. They also reviewed the trading volume and prices of the Company’s stock from January through August 2005. While the Company’s stock was never traded above $0.14 per share during such period (except one single trade of 2,300 shares at $1.03 per share on January 28, 2005), the non-affiliated directors reached the conclusion that setting the per share repurchase price at $0.13 would be fair to stockholders both affected and unaffected by this transaction, i.e. to the Cashed-Out Stockholders and to those holders not receiving the Cash Consideration. While the aggregate Cash Consideration to be paid was estimated to be between $80,000 and $250,000, the non-affiliated directors also concluded that setting the price higher than $0.13 per share would be unfair to the remaining stockholders.

Because the results of a Going Private Transaction are more predictable and automatic as compared to other alternatives of ways to complete the process of going private, our Board of Directors believed that the Going Private Transaction would be the most expeditious and economical way of reducing the number of holders of record to fewer than 300 thereby positioning us to effect the termination of our Periodic Reporting Obligations. Based on the Company’s stock records at June 30, 2005, August 2, 2005 and March 31, 2006, the Company estimates that it will have approximately 200 holders of record immediately following the Going Private Transaction. Although exchange ratios of less than 5000 to 1 were discussed, the Board considered 5000 to 1 most appropriate to achieve the result of reducing the number of holders to less than 300. The 11 largest Opta stockholders hold approximately 77% of Opta’s outstanding shares. If all the holders on the OBO list continue to be Opta stockholders after the Going Private Transaction, we estimate that Opta will have approximately 200 stockholders after the Going Private Transaction. Using a 4,000 to 1 ratio would have resulted in approximately 11 more stockholders and using a 3,000 to 1 ratio would result in approximately 27 more stockholders after the Going Private Transaction. Because we do not know exactly how many holders are on the OBO list and cannot control potential trading after the Going Private Transaction, we decided to use the 5000 to 1 ratio because it would give the Company sufficient flexibility should the number of stockholders increase after the Going Private Transaction to a number between 200 and 300.

Because the ownership percentage of TCL Corp-affiliated stockholders would slightly increase as a result of the Going Private Transaction, Opta requested that Cronkite & Kissell expand the scope of their valuation opinion to address the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the share price to be received in the Going Private Transaction to all the stockholders of the Company, in particular those not affiliated with TCL Corp.

15

On May 27, 2005 and June 20, 2005, the Company engaged Cronkite & Kissell to deliver its fairness opinion as of June 30, 2005, based on the $0.13 per share repurchase price. (The Company had previously engaged Cronkite & Kissell on May 27, 2005 to prepare the June 14, 2005 valuation report described above.)  On July 8, 2005, the Company filed its initial preliminary Schedule 14C and initial Schedule 13E-3, including Cronkite & Kissell’s opinion dated June 30, 2005 attached hereto as Annex D, with the SEC. In such fairness opinion, Cronkite & Kissell stated that the fair market value of the common stock was $0.10 per share and that the $0.13 per share repurchase price was fair to the stockholders of the Company from a financial point of view.

Following these initial filings to effect the Going Private Transaction, the Company entered into the series of transactions involving our subsidiaries GoVideo and Correlant, as described above in “Past Transactions and Developments During the Current Fiscal Year”. As these transactions neared completion, management and the Board decided to postpone the Company’s process of going private until the transactions were finalized, as such transactions conceivably could impact the substance of the Going Private Transaction.

Following the consummation of such transactions, management requested Cronkite & Kissell to update its valuation and fairness opinions to reflect such transactions. On August 2, 2005, after taking into consideration events occurring in July 2005, including the restructuring of the Company’s debt, the assignment to TCLMM by GoVideo of its rights in certain intellectual property, the dissolution of Correlant and the resulting significant changes in the Company’s balance sheet, Cronkite & Kissell delivered its updated valuation opinion. In such updated opinion, Cronkite & Kissell stated that the fair market value of the common stock of the Company was $0.116 per share and that the $0.13 per share repurchase price proposed and approved by the Company’s Board was fair. On August 2, 2005, following receipt of the updated Cronkite & Kissell opinions, our entire Board of Directors, approved the Going Private Transaction.

At the Company’s request, Cronkite & Kissell again updated its valuation opinion as of September 20, 2005. Cronkite & Kissell considered the Company’s revised business plan and financial forecasts with respect to GoVideo and GoVideo’s recent financial performance. Cronkite & Kissell also stated in such updated valuation opinion dated September 20, 2005 and attached hereto as Annex F that its fairness opinion addresses the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the share price to be received in the Going Private Transaction by unaffiliated stockholders, namely stockholders who are not affiliated with TCL entities. The September 20, 2005 opinion stated that the fair market value of the common stock is $0.10 per share. After Cronkite & Kissell provided an updated valuation of the Company on September 20, 2005, the Board discussed the updated valuation in numerous telephone conferences. The Board took into consideration management’s estimation that GoVideo would continue to incur operating losses of several million of dollars in the next few months, which would offset the gain the Company made in selling GoVideo’s trade name and patents in July 2005. Based on this information, the Board unanimously agreed to maintain the repurchase price of $0.13.

Opta originally intended to complete the Going Private Transaction prior to the deadline for filing its Form 10-K for the period ended June 30, 2005. The process was delayed due to the series of transactions effected by Opta as discussed above. Additionally, as previously reported, Opta dismissed its former accountant and engaged a new principal accountant on September 27, 2005 as part of a continuing effort to save costs. As a result, the filing of Opta’s 14C was delayed until Opta became current in all its required periodic filings.

16

After the filing of Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 14C on October 3, 2005, the Company engaged new auditors to conduct the audit of its financial statements for the fiscal year 2005 and entered into a series of transactions involving the restructuring of its business model, as described above in “Past Transactions and Developments During the Current Fiscal Year”. The value of the Company significantly deteriorated during this period primarily due to the shut down of GoVideo’s historical operations as a consumer electronics original equipment manufacturer. The board subsequently requested Cronkite & Kissell to conduct a new evaluation on the fair market value of the common stock based on GoVideo’s shutdown of historical operations, Opta’s new business model and the updated financial forecasts and financial condition of the Company. On February 27, 2006 Cronkite & Kissell delivered an updated valuation opinion. Based on Cronkite & Kissell’s evaluation, the fair market value of the common stock of the Company as of February 25, 2006 is reasonably stated in the amount of one million one hundred thousand dollars ($1,100,000) or $.02 per share based upon 50,037,538 shares of common stock and 4,300 shares of Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the valuation date. On April 8, 2006, at the Company’s request, Cronkite & Kissell again updated its valuation opinion, and based on the Company’s updated financial information, Cronkite & Kissell adjusted its valuation of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock to $0.026 per share as of March 26, 2006.

The board members reviewed Cronkite & Kissell’s updated valuation opinions of February 27 and April 8, 2006, and had several telephone conversations among the board members regarding a potential revision to the repurchase price in the Going Private Transaction. Dongsheng Li and Vincent Yan, each of whom is a director affiliated with TCL Corp., agreed to revise the repurchase price to $0.03 per share. James Liu and Zuoquan Lin reviewed the Company’s new business model, the audited financial statements for fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, and the quarterly unaudited financial statements for the periods ended September 30, and December 31, 2005. Both Messrs. Liu and Lin agreed to the new purchase price of $0.03 for two reasons: (1) they believe that the Company has a high chance to fulfill Opta’s new business model and generate future income that matches Cronkite & Kissell’s assessment about the value of the Company common stock and (2) although a repurchase price of $0.03 per share is a premium over Cronkite & Kissell’s valuation of $0.026 per share, the aggregate amount of the premium that would be paid by the Company for the repurchase of its common stock would be $11,200, and they believe that the Company would have sufficient cash available for its normal operation after the repurchase. The board passed a resolution through unanimous written consent to approve $0.03 per share as the new purchase price on April 8, 2006. On April 10, 2006, Cronkite & Kissell delivered an updated fairness opinion (attached hereto as Annex H), in which it stated that the $0.03 per share repurchase price proposed and approved by the Board was fair, from a financial point of view, to the stockholders of the Company.

Reasons for the Going Private Transaction

Cost Savings

We incur direct and indirect costs associated with our status as a public company. Among the most significant are the costs associated with compliance with the Periodic Reporting Obligations imposed by the Commission. Direct costs associated with compliance with the Periodic Reporting Obligations include, but are not limited to auditing fees, legal fees, consultant fees, financial printer fees and miscellaneous clerical and other administrative expenses, such as word processing, conversion to EDGAR, telephone and fax charges associated with the preparation and filing of periodic reports, proxy materials and other reports and statements with the Commission.

Based on our experience in prior years, our direct costs of complying with the Periodic Reporting Obligations are estimated to be approximately $880,000 annually, based on estimated annual audit and accounting fees of $200,000, estimated annual legal fees of $150,000, estimated

17

financial printer fees of $10,000, estimated transfer agent fees of $7,000, estimated costs associated with filing reports with the Commission (including internal administrative staff) of $50,000, estimated costs for directors’ and officers’ insurance of $330,000, estimated future costs associated with Sarbanes-Oxley compliance of $80,000 and estimated miscellaneous costs of $50,000. Indirect costs associated with compliance with the Periodic Reporting Obligations include, among other things, the time our executive officers and accounting staff expend to prepare and review our periodic reports. Because we have only a few executive personnel, these indirect costs are substantial. Due to additional regulations and compliance procedures required of public companies under Sarbanes-Oxley, including our independent auditors’ report on our management’s assessment of our internal controls for financial reporting purposes under Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley, we expect that both the direct and indirect costs identified above will increase in the future. Moreover, we believe that such costs will increase as the Company addresses the concerns in the Company’s external auditors’ report to the Board in January 2005 of a “reportable condition” that constituted a “material weakness” in our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting did not impact the Board’s or Cronkite & Kissell’s ability to evaluate the fairness of the Going Private Transaction.

Our Board of Directors considered the cost to us of continuing to file periodic reports with the Commission and complying with the proxy and annual report requirements under the Exchange Act compared to the benefits to us and our stockholders of continuing to operate as a public company. Under the circumstances, our Board of Directors determined that the benefits that we and our stockholders would typically expect to derive from our status as a public company are not being realized and are not likely to be realized in the foreseeable future. In particular, as discussed above, in the period since the Company’s stock was delisted from the OTC Bulletin Board, trading has been sporadic and minimal, and there is no established public trading market for our stock. For example, during the one year period from April 1, 2005 to March 31, 2006, there were only 57 transactions with 836,801 shares in total traded. That is, 196 of 251 trading days during such period had only quotes but no trades.

As a result, our Board of Directors concluded that the elimination of the costs of complying with our Periodic Reporting Obligations outweighed the benefits of continuing to incur such costs. We are, therefore, undertaking the Going Private Transaction at this time to save us the substantial costs, which we expect to increase over time, and resources required to comply with the Periodic Reporting Obligations and other obligations associated with operating as a public reporting company. However, the actual savings to be realized from terminating our Periodic Reporting Obligations may be higher or lower than our estimates.

Competitive Disadvantage

As a public company, we are required to make certain disclosures in connection with our Periodic Reporting Obligations. Those public disclosures can potentially place us at a competitive disadvantage by providing our non-public competitors with strategic information about our business, operations and results while not having access to similar information about those competitors. In light of our limited size and resources, competitive disadvantages related to our public reporting obligations and our lack of intent to raise capital through a public offering or effect acquisitions using our stock, our Board of Directors does not believe the costs associated with maintaining our Periodic Reporting Obligations and maintaining our stockholder accounts are justified. Our Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interests of us and our stockholders as a whole to eliminate the administrative burden and costs associated with maintaining our Periodic Reporting Obligations and maintaining stockholder accounts.

18

Procedural Factors Favoring the Going Private Transaction

Our Board of Directors analyzed the Going Private Transaction and its anticipated effects on our stockholders and have deemed the Going Private Transaction and related termination of our Periodic Reporting Obligations to be substantively and procedurally fair to, and in the best interests of, our affiliated and unaffiliated stockholders, whether they are cashed out or remain as stockholders following the Going Private Transaction. In reaching this conclusion, our Board of Directors also considered, in no particular order and without preference, the factors described below.

The Going Private Transaction Provides our Stockholders with Liquidity

As a result of our stock being delisted as discussed above, the average daily trading volume for our Common Stock was minimal and deemed illiquid by most standards. The Going Private Transaction will provide stockholders who hold fewer than 5,000 shares at the Effective Time the opportunity to liquidate their investment in us.

No Unusual Conditions to the Going Private Transaction

Our Board of Directors also considered the likelihood that the Going Private Transaction would be implemented. In this regard, it considered that there are no unusual requirements or conditions to the Going Private Transaction, and that we have the financial resources to implement the Going Private Transaction expeditiously.

Interest of TCL Corp in the Going Private Transaction

As a result of the Going Private Transaction, the ownership percentage of TCL Industries and LIH will increase from 32.0% and 19.2%, respectively, to approximately 33.6% and 20.1%, respectively. TCL Industries and LIH have consented in writing to approve the Going Private Transaction. Two of Opta’s directors, Li Dongsheng and Vincent Yan, are also directors of TCL Corp. Both Mr. Li and Mr. Yan hold positions with TCL Corp-affiliated companies, including TCLMM.

Because the ownership percentage of TCL Corp-affiliated stockholders will slightly increase as a result of the Going Private Transaction, Opta engaged Cronkite & Kissell, an independent financial advisor, to opine as to the fairness of the Going Private Transaction to all the stockholders of the Company, including those not affiliated with TCL Corp. Cronkite & Kissell’s fairness opinion specifically addresses the fairness of the Going Private Transaction to unaffiliated stockholders.

Messrs. Lin and Liu, the two other members of our Board of Directors who are not affiliated with TCL Corp, separately analyzed the advantages, disadvantages and consequences of the proposed Going Private Transaction. As described above, the non-affiliated directors conducted their own investigations before authorizing the Going Private Transaction. Their analyses and decisions were based upon a number of factors, including: (1) the Company’s current financial and business operating status, (2) the Company’s future plans and its profitability forecast, (3) the increasing costs to maintain the Company’s public status, and (4) the lack of liquidity for the Company’s stock as a result of minimal and sporadic trading of the shares on the Pink Sheets. After their investigation, they separately approved the Going Private Transaction.

Structure of Going Private Transaction – Stockholder and Board Approval

The Going Private Transaction was specifically structured in a way that requires stockholder approval and provides statutory appraisal rights to non-consenting stockholders. One of the reasons the Company specifically structured the Going Private Transaction to include a merger, rather than a reverse stock split, was to provide for appraisal rights to unaffiliated stockholders. Such appraisal rights are more fully described in the section entitled “Appraisal Rights” below. The Going Private Transaction was not structured in a way that would require approval of a majority of unaffiliated stockholders. However, the Board concluded that the procedural safeguards afforded by such appraisal rights, together with the independent valuation and fairness opinion delivered by Cronkite & Kissell, would make the Going Private Transaction procedurally fair to the unaffiliated stockholders, even though the consents of unaffiliated stockholders to the Going Private Transaction were not solicited. Furthermore, the unaffiliated stockholders are not being treated differently as a group from the affiliated stockholders. The difference in treatment arises from whether or not a stockholder holds more or less than 5,000 Pre-Merger Shares. The Going Private Transaction has been approved unanimously by all members of the Board of Directors, including all non-employee directors.

Substantive Factors Favoring the Going Private Transaction

Direct and Indirect Cost Savings

As discussed above, we incur direct and indirect costs associated with our status as a public company. Among the most significant are the costs associated with compliance with the Periodic Reporting Obligations imposed by the Commission. As discussed above, we estimate that we will save approximately $880,000 annually in direct general and administrative costs by being a private company. We also believe that because of Sarbanes-Oxley, such direct costs would increase in the future. Additionally, the indirect cost to our company in terms of senior management and accounting staff time spent on complying with the Periodic Reporting Obligations will also be saved.

Fairness Opinion General

The Board hired Cronkite & Kissell based on its qualifications and expertise in providing financial advice to companies and its reputation. Opta engaged Cronkite & Kissell to perform a SFAS 141 analysis at April 18, 2003 for a fee of $11,000 and a SFAS 142 study at June 30, 2004 for a fee of $8,218. In July 2005, Opta engaged Cronkite & Kissell to estimate the fair value of GoVideo’s patents and trade names for a fee of $8,500. No other material relationship exists or has existed within the past two years between Cronkite & Kissell and the Company prior to this transaction. Pursuant to a letter agreement dated May 27, 2005 and amended June 20, 2005, Cronkite & Kissell will be paid fees totaling $38,000 for the Cronkite & Kissell Fairness Opinions. Such fee is not contingent on the successful completion of the Going Private Transaction.

On May 27, 2005, Cronkite & Kissell was engaged by Opta to estimate the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. On June 14, 2005, Cronkite & Kissell delivered verbally and in a draft executive summary letter its estimate of fair market value at $.10 per share. On July 8, 2005, Cronkite & Kissell delivered its June 30, 2005 valuation opinion which was filed as an Exhibit to the initial preliminary Schedule 14C filed with the Commission on July 8, 2005 and attached hereto as Annex D. Subsequently, the Company entered into a series of transactions in July 2005 that are described in “Past Transactions and Developments During the Current Fiscal Year.”

20

Cronkite & Kissell was then requested by the Company to update its estimate of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock taking into consideration these events; specifically the restructuring of the Company’s debt, the assignment to TCLMM by GoVideo of its rights in certain intellectual property and the dissolution of Correlant. These events caused significant changes in the Company’s financial statements. Cronkite & Kissell considered the events that occurred in July 2005 and the resulting changes in the Company’s financial statements in updating its estimated value and fairness opinion in the Fairness Opinion Letter dated August 2, 2005. In August 2005, the Company again requested that Cronkite & Kissell update its estimate of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock to take into account GoVideo’s revised business plan, financial forecasts and recent financial performance as a result of the Company’s having taken significant steps to restructure the operations of GoVideo. Cronkite & Kissell’s updated Fairness Opinion Letter dated September 20, 2005 is attached as Annex F. Subsequently, the Company entered into a series of transactions involving the restructuring of its business model, as described above in “Past Transactions and Developments During the Current Fiscal Year”. The value of the Company significantly deteriorated during this period primarily due to the shut down of GoVideo’s historical operations as a consumer electronics original equipment manufacturer. In February 2006, due to the GoVideo’s shutdown of historical operations and Opta’s new business model and the updated financial forecasts and financial condition, the Company again requested that Cronkite & Kissell update its estimate of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. Cronkite & Kissell updated Fairness Opinion Letter dated February 27, 2006 is attached as Annex G. In April 2006, again due to the updated financial forecasts and financial statements included herein, the Company once more requested that Cronkite & Kissell update its estimation of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. Cronkite & Kissell’s updated fairness opinion letter dated April 10, 2006 is attached as Annex H. With respect to each of the updated opinions, the estimated fair market value of Opta’s common stock changed as the Company entered into the transactions described above, new financial information became available and as GoVideo continued to shut down historical operations and Opta implemented its new business model.

Market Approach

One of the approaches used by Cronkite & Kissell to estimate the value of the Company’s common stock was a Market Approach. There are five steps involved in using the market approach, as follows:

•                  The determination of earnings levels considered to be representative of the future operating performance of the subject company.

•                  The selection of guideline companies to be used for comparison purposes. The guideline companies can be either publicly traded companies or companies (publicly-traded or private) that have recently been acquired. Cronkite & Kissell focused its analysis on publicly-traded guideline companies as no comparable transactions were identified within the past two years.

•                  The performance of a comparative risk analysis between the subject company and the guideline companies.

•                  The selection of appropriate market multiples for the subject company based on the comparative risk analysis and a thorough analysis of the guideline market multiples.

•                  The determination of value for the subject company’s total enterprise, and after subtracting interest-bearing debt, its equity.

21

Determination of Representative Earnings

Essential ingredients of the market approach are the appropriate levels of earnings to utilize. In determining representative levels, Cronkite & Kissell reviewed the historical trends, as well as the projections for future operations, of the Company in terms of revenues, earnings, and cash flow. As previously described herein, Opta’s business model, specifically as it relates to its GoVideo subsidiary, has undergone significant changes over the past twelve months. It’s expected future revenues and operating profits bear no relationship to its historic revenue and earning levels. Consequently it would be inappropriate to apply a market multiple to historic revenues and earnings. We have therefore utilized forecasted 2006 revenues and earnings before depreciation, interest and taxes (“EBITDA”) in this approach.

When employing the market approach, it is important to obtain a representative list of publicly owned or recently acquired companies that are similar to the subject company in those respects carrying the greatest weight with the investing public. In some cases, companies may be quite similar from an investment standpoint, even though they appear to be engaged in somewhat different lines of business. Primarily, they should offer operational and economic comparability in the areas of major importance to the investing public.

Cronkite & Kissell’s search for such companies included a review of certain databases which contain pertinent financial and operating information on actively traded public companies. In establishing the search parameters, four basic criteria had to be met initially:

•                  The company had to be primarily engaged in the consumer electronics industry.

•                  The company’s common stock (or ADR for international companies) had to be outstanding in the hands of the public.

•                  The trading market of the company had to be relatively active to obtain true investor sentiment.

•                  The company had to make its financial information public.

After reviewing companies fitting the general criteria described above, Cronkite & Kissell selected six for comparison purposes:

•                  Audiovox Corp.

•                  Emerson Radio

•                  Harmon International

•                  Matsushita Electric

•                  Phillips Electric

•                  Pioneer Corp.

Comparative Analysis with Opta

Before drawing any conclusions from the market multiples evidenced for the guideline companies, it is necessary to complete a comparative analysis. Such an analysis compares the subject company with the guideline companies on the basis of risk and return characteristics in order to determine the subject company’s risk/return profile relative to that of the guideline companies as a group. The analysis generally focuses on quantitative considerations, which

22

include financial performance and other quantifiable data, and qualitative considerations, which include any factors which are expected to impact future financial performance and investors’ interpretations of the financial results.

Based on Cronkite & Kissell’s review of these statistics and consideration of the qualitative factors impacting the business, Opta appears to represent a significantly greater investment risk, for a given return, relative to the guideline companies as a group. However, we have assumed for purposes of this analysis, that the Company will be successful in its implementation of the new licensing business model and will achieve its forecasted 2006 earnings

Determination of Market Multiples

The enterprise value (“EV”) / Revenue multiples and EV/EBITDA multiples for the guideline companies were computed by dividing the aggregate value of equity (adjusted for the size differential between the guideline companies and Opta) and debt by their latest twelve months (“LTM”) Revenue and EBITDA, respectively. The resulting debt-free ratios represent minority level valuation indications because a control premium was not incorporated into the market multiple calculations. Adjusted EV/Revenue multiples for the guideline companies ranged from .25 to 1.7. The Adjusted EV/EBITDA multiples for the guideline companies ranged from 3.8 to 10.6.

Based on the risk factors described above and other factors considered, Cronkite & Kissell’s analysis indicates the following ratios are appropriate for Opta:

Market Multiple Summary

Applying the appropriate multiples to their respective levels of earnings yields indications of value as follows ($000s):

The Enterprise Value is less than the Company’s debt in this analysis, consequently this approach was not considered in our final valuation.

23

Income Approach

An income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow approach, is another method used by Cronkite & Kissell in estimating the fair market value of Opta. This approach entails four basic steps, as follows:

•                  The determination of the appropriate cash flows to discount, based upon projected income statements and balance sheets for the subject company.

•                  The selection of an appropriate discount rate for the subject company projections, based upon an analysis of alternative investments, including public company discount rates.

•                  The determination of a terminal value for the subject company, as of the end of the last period for which projections are available.

•                  The determination of the total enterprise value of the subject company

Determination of Free Cash Flow

The cash flow figures used in the discounted cash flow approach are operating cash flows, that is, before deducting interest or principal payments on debt. Often referred to as “net debt free cash flow,” these cash flows are equal to the earnings that would be available to common and preferred stockholders assuming no debt existed in the capital structure, plus the add back of depreciation and other non-cash expenses, and net of other projected expenditures, such as additions to working capital and property, plant and equipment. Thus, the present value of a stream of these cash flows provides an indication of value for the enterprise of the subject company. Any assumptions regarding the capital structure of the subject company must be incorporated into the discount rate applied to the projected cash flows. Debt is subtracted from the enterprise value to arrive at the value of its equity.

Five-year projections for the Company, reflecting Opta’s new licensing business model were provided by Opta management and used in Cronkite & Kissell’s analysis.

The projections provided by Opta management, are presented below:

Determination of Discount Rate

A discount rate is an expected total yield (or rate of return) that investors require for a particular class of investment. In Cronkite & Kissell’s analysis, they developed a weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) for the Company (which measures the after-tax costs of debt and equity weighted by the percentage of debt and equity in the Company’s capital structure)

24

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (“WACC”)

Arithmetically, the formula for calculating the after-tax WACC is:

where:

K_D       =              After-tax cost of debt

K_E       =              After-tax cost of equity

D         =              Estimated market value (or book value) of debt

E          =              Estimated market value of equity

V         =              Value of invested capital (debt “plus” equity)

The WACC for the Company was developed using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (“CAPM”). A discussion of the methodology follows.

Cost of Equity

The CAPM is most often applied (and most meaningful) when valuing companies that resemble public companies. In applying the CAPM, adjustments are made to the cost of equity estimate based on comparing the subject company to a group of publicly traded guideline companies.

The components and formula for the CAPM model are as follows:

E(R_i) = R_f + b(RP_m) + RP_s

where:

E(R_i)                    = Expected (market required) rate of return on security i.

R_f                                      = The rate of return available on a risk-free security as of the valuation date.

b              =  Beta. Called systematic risk in CAPM terminology, beta is a function of the relationship between the return on an individual security and the return on the market (as measured by a broad market index). For the market index as a whole, the average beta (by definition) is 1.0. A beta coefficient of 1.00 implies that a company’s return is as volatile as the overall market. A beta coefficient that is higher (lower) than 1.00 implies that the company’s return is more (less) volatile than the overall market. By identifying guideline companies representative of an industry, inferences can be made regarding the risk level of the industry based on the observed betas. That is, in a CAPM analysis, beta is used as a measure of industry risk.

RP_m                          = The general equity risk premium for the “market”.

RP_s                             = Risk premium for size and other company specific risks.

Utilizing the CAPM formula, and the guideline companies, an after-tax cost of equity of 20 percent was calculated as presented below:

25

Cost of Debt

Opta’s pre-tax cost of debt was estimated at 8.65 percent based upon the weighted average cost of the refinanced debt plus a 2% premium for default risk

WACC Calculation

A capital structure of 67.0 percent debt and 33.0 percent equity was utilized in the WACC calculation and was estimated based on the Company’s balance sheet after the restructuring. Applying the estimated after-tax cost of equity and after-tax cost of debt to the estimated capital structure resulted in an after-tax WACC for the Company of 15.0 (rounded).

Discounted Cash Flow Summary

The value indications that have been computed using the Income Approach reflect the value of the total enterprise. Based upon debt-free cash flow projections (including provision for a terminal value at the end of the five year forecast period), a WACC of 15.0 percent, and a perpetuity growth rate of 10.0 percent, Cronkite & Kissell’s analysis yielded an indication for the enterprise value of Opta of $6,563,873. Deducting interest-bearing debt of $4,979,000 yielded an enterprise value of equity of $1,584,873. Because the common stock of the Company represents a minority interest, the enterprise value of equity was further discounted by 17% for lack of control, yielding a value of the common stock on a minority interest basis of $1,300,000 (rounded) (approximately $0.026 per share). The 10.0% terminal growth rate was based slightly above the median four-year historic annual revenue growth rate for the guideline companies (7.2%).

Cost Approach/ Liquidation Analysis

Opta’s independent audit firm has expressed concern in the Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern. Cronkite & Kissell has therefore also considered a cost approach to value, specifically the adjusted net assets method. In this method, a valuation analysis is performed for a company’s identified fixed, financial, and other assets. The derived aggregate fair market value is then “netted” against the estimated fair market value of all existing and potential liabilities, resulting in an indication of the fair market value of the stockholders’ equity.

Cronkite & Kissell relied upon discussions with management and bank collateral requirements in estimating the percent of each assets book value that could be realized upon disposition. Management estimates that only 70 percent of accounts receivable would be collectible in liquidation. Twenty-five percent of prepaid expenses were assumed to be recoverable and 50 percent of net fixed assets. The liquidation value of all other assets was estimated at 100 percent of their book value. All liabilities were estimated at 100 percent of their book value. This approach indicated that values that could be realized from the disposition of the assets are less than the value of the Company’s liabilities by more than $5.0 million.

Valuation Summary

In Cronkite & Kissell’s valuation of Opta, Cronkite & Kissell utilized widely recognized valuation methodologies that yielded indications of value for the common equity of the Company, as a going concern, on a marketable minority interest basis ranging from $0 to $1,300,000. Cronkite & Kissell’s liquidation analysis indicted that the Company’s liabilities exceed the value that could be realized upon liquidation of its assets.

26

Giving sole weight to the income approach, Cronkite & Kissell has estimated the fair market value of the common equity of Opta at $1,300,000 (approximately $0.026 per share).

Information Provided by Management

Management provided information used by Cronkite & Kissell to fairly value Opta’s stock. The information provided involved forward-looking statements and was based upon a variety of assumptions, including Opta’s ability to achieve strategic goals, objectives and targets over the applicable periods. These assumptions involve judgments with respect to future economic, competitive and regulatory conditions, financial market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. Many important factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this information statement and in Opta’s filings with the Commission, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These factors include our competitive environment, economic and other market conditions in which we operate and matters affecting business generally, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the projections are indicative of our future performance or that actual results will not differ materially from the information provided. In light of the uncertainties inherent in projections of any kind, the inclusion of these projections in this information statement should not be regarded as a representation by us, the Board of Directors, or any of our or their respective advisors, agents or representatives that these projections will prove to be correct.

Opinion of Cronkite & Kissell

Opta searched for a financial advisor that had the experience and qualifications necessary to provide an opinion regarding the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the consideration to be received by the non-controlling stockholders of Opta. Opta contacted two different financial advisors they had previously worked with and requested bids regarding the fee that would be charged for their services. Opta received proposals to provide the requisite services from each of the financial advisors and evaluated the proposals and the merits of each. On the basis of the qualifications, experience and fees, Opta’s Board of Directors engaged Cronkite & Kissell.

On April 10, 2006, Cronkite & Kissell delivered to the Board its written opinion, to the effect that, based upon and subject to the assumptions and qualifications stated in its opinion, the $0.03 per share to be received by the non-controlling, unaffiliated stockholders of the Company was fair, from a financial point of view, to such stockholders.

The full text of Cronkite & Kissell’s written opinion, dated April 10, 2006, is attached as Annex H to this information statement and is incorporated by reference. You are urged to read the entire opinion carefully to learn about the assumptions made, procedures performed, matters considered and limits on the scope of the analysis undertaken by Cronkite & Kissell in rendering the Opinion. Cronkite & Kissell’s Opinion relates only to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the share price to be received in the Going Private Transaction. The opinion does not address any other aspect of the proposed Going Private Transaction or any related transaction and does not constitute a recommendation to any stockholder. The Opinion has been made available to interested stockholders at Opta’s principal executive offices.

27

Cronkite & Kissell was not requested to and did not make any recommendation to the Board of Directors as to the form or amount of consideration to be received by the Cashed-Out Stockholders. No limitations were imposed by the Board of Directors with respect to the investigations made or procedures followed by Cronkite & Kissell in rendering its opinion.

Cronkite & Kissell’s opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any Opta stockholders as to whether such stockholders should consent to the Going Private Transaction or exercise their appraisal rights with respect to their shares. The summary of the opinion set forth in this information statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such opinion which is attached as Annex H.

While Cronkite & Kissell rendered the Opinion and provided certain financial analyses, the Opinion was only one of the factors taken into consideration by the Board in determining the price to be paid to the Cashed-Out Stockholders. And although Cronkite & Kissell was engaged to perform a valuation analysis, the Board of Directors determined the amount of Cash Consideration to be paid and the decision to recommend the proposed Going Private Transaction was solely that of the Board of Directors.

In preparing its Opinion, Cronkite & Kissell performed a variety of analyses, which are summarized below. In arriving at its Opinion, Cronkite & Kissell considered the results of all such analysis as a whole and did not attribute any particular weight to any specific analysis or factor. As such, consideration of only a portion of the analyses could create an incomplete view of the process underlying Cronkite & Kissell’s Opinion.

In performing its analyses, Cronkite & Kissell made many assumptions many of which are beyond the control of Opta. The analyses performed by Cronkite & Kissell are not necessarily indicative of actual values or actual future results, which may be significantly different than suggested by such analyses. Such analyses were prepared solely as part of Cronkite & Kissell’s analysis of the fairness of the Cash Consideration and were delivered to the Board of Directors as part of the Opinion. Cronkite & Kissell utilized various pieces of information provided by the management of Opta. The information provided was based on numerous variables and assumptions that are inherently unpredictable and may not occur as projected. Accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from those set forth in management’s projections.

In rendering its Opinion, among other analyses, Cronkite & Kissell performed the following procedures:

•                  Reviewed its analyses and valuations of Opta as of June 14, 2005, August 2, 2005, September 20, 2005, February 25, 2006 and April 8, 2006;

•                  Reviewed its prior financial analyses of Opta Systems, LLC dba “GoVideo” as of April 18, 2003, June 30, 2004 and July 19, 2005;

•                  Discussed with certain members of senior management of the Company and GoVideo the operations, financial condition, future prospects, and projected operations and performance of the Company;

•                  Reviewed the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, and reviewed the Company’s unaudited (reviewed) consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005;

•                  Reviewed Opta’s five-year financial forecasts prepared by Opta management in February 2006;

•                  Reviewed Opta’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on July 19, 2005, July 21, 2005, July 29, 2005, September 26, 2005, September 29, 2005, October 19, 2005, February 1, 2006 and February 22, 2006;

28

•                  Reviewed the Unanimous Written Consent of the Board of Directors of Opta Corporation executed on April 8, 2006.

•                  Reviewed the initial Schedule 14C and Schedule 13E-3 as filed on July 8, 2005; Amendments No. 1 to Schedule 14C and Schedule 13E-3 as filed on August 3, 2005; Amendments No. 2 to Schedule 14C and Schedule 13E-3 as filed on October 3, 2005; and undated drafts of Amendments No. 3 to Schedule 14C and Schedule 13E-3 that the Company is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Transaction;

•                  Reviewed publicly available financial data for certain companies deemed comparable to Opta; and

•                  Conducted such other studies, analyses and inquiries deemed appropriate.

Cronkite & Kissell held discussions with members of the senior management regarding the foregoing. In addition, they considered other matters and performed such research, inquiries and analysis that it deemed relevant in rendering the Opinion.

In rendering the Opinion, Cronkite & Kissell assumed and relied upon, with the consent of the Board and without independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of all the information provided to it by Opta, including, without limitation, certain forward-looking information. Cronkite & Kissell expressed no opinion or any form of assurance with respect to the forward-looking information or any of the underlying data utilized in its analyses.

Cronkite & Kissell’s opinion does not in any way address the Going Private Transaction or its merits as compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist for the Company or the effect of any other transaction in which the Company might engage. Cronkite & Kissell assumed without verification the accuracy and adequacy of the legal advice given by counsel to the Company and by counsel to the Board of Directors on all legal matters. Additionally, Cronkite & Kissell did not express any opinion as to the price at which the Company Common Stock would trade at any future time. Cronkite & Kissell Opinion was based upon economic, market, financial and other conditions existing on, and other information disclosed to Cronkite & Kissell as of the date of the Opinion. Although subsequent developments may affect its opinion, Cronkite & Kissell does not have any obligation to update, revise or reaffirm its Opinion.

The Cronkite & Kissell Opinions are not a recommendation to any Opta stockholder to tender their shares as part of this Going Private Transaction or as to how any stockholder should proceed with respect to this Transaction or any other matter and should not be relied upon by Opta stockholders as such.

Limited Liquidity for Our Stock. The Board of Directors and Opta management took into account the limited public float and low trading volume of our Common Stock, the small number of market makers and the lack of institutional research coverage relating to the Company. These factors make it difficult for our stockholders to dispose of large numbers of shares without adversely affecting our stock price. In the Board of Director’s view, these factors made the Cash Consideration contemplated by the Going Private Transaction preferable to the alternative of subjecting holders of small percentages of stock to the risk of declining stock performance or the risk of being unable to sell its shares. The Board of Directors examined the relationship between the $0.03 price per share to be paid in the Going Private Transaction and the recent market price of the Company’s Common Stock.

Fairness Opinion. The Board of Directors reviewed and adopted the Opinion of the financial advisor, Cronkite & Kissell that, as of April 10, 2006, the Cash Consideration to be received by certain stockholders was fair to the stockholders, including the unaffiliated stockholders, from a financial point of view.

Net Book Value. The Board also considered reports of management comparing net book value data compared against the valuation reports of Cronkite & Kissell. See “SELECTED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION” for net book value. As the net book value of the Company was negative at September 30, 2005 due to continued loss incurred by GoVideo’s business operation, the Board unanimously agreed the net book value approach is irrelevant in determining the purchase price. The Board does believe that given the negative net book value, no higher than 20% of the premium should be considered in determining the purchase price for the Company’s stock in the going private transaction.

Going Concern Value. The Board also considered the going concern value of the Company. Since the Company’s fixed assets and other non-current assets account for less than 1% of the Company’s total assets, the going concern value of the Company is approximately the same as its net book value.

Liquidation Value. The Board also considered liquidation value as another factor in determining the fair value. The Board used the orderly liquidation value approach, taking into account the effects of the liquidation of Correlant, as well as the restructuring efforts in GoVideo, and concluded that the liquidation value approach may not be used. As of September 30, 2005, the Company’s consolidated assets were less than the consolidated liabilities and the liquidation value approximated the negative net book value. As a result, the liquation value does not make sense.

Past Repurchases of Opta Stock. As described above in “Transactions in Opta Stock,” Opta paid $0.30 per share for such repurchases because in each case, the repurchases were made in connection with the takeover of Correlant from former Correlant shareholders, employees or management and in each case, each selling stockholder released Opta, its subsidiaries and affiliates from claims relating the Company or such stockholder’s ownership of the shares.

Other Offers. In reviewing alternatives to the Going Private Transaction, the Board directed management to make efforts to identify opportunities for potential candidates to buy the Company. Sean Wang, COO of the Company, contacted several potential candidates between March and September 2005. One candidate was a leading manufacturer in audio and video

30

products in Nanjing, China. Mr. Wang visited this company in March 2005 to assess if it would be a qualified candidate. An executive officer and director of such company also visited Opta in California in May 2005 and expressed serious interest in entering into a business cooperation with Opta including a potential purchase of the Company. Mr. Wang, Vincent Yan and James Liu, two directors of the Company, all visited such company in July, 2005 to further explore the buyout possibilities. The management of both companies discussed all the possibilities of business cooperation between the two companies. After several months of exploration and discussions, the potential buyer company failed to make a final offer.

In addition, even after Opta took steps toward going private, management continued to make efforts to solicit potential buyers or strategic partners. In August and September 2005, James Liu referred another company to Opta as a potential candidate to buy Opta. Such candidate is a public company in China and manufactures portable DVDs. Vincent Yan and James Liu discussed the possible buyout plan and major terms including a proposed price with the officers of such company. After numerous discussions, the candidate company did not make an offer to Opta.

The Company did not receive firm offers by any unaffiliated person during the past two years for: (A) the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another company, or vice versa; (B) the sale or other transfer of all or any substantial part of the assets of the Company; or (C) a purchase of the Company’s securities that would enable the holder to exercise control of the Company. Accordingly, the Board did not consider firm offers because there were none.

Costs Associated with Being a Public Company. The Board of Directors compared the costs involved with being a public company, including the costs of filing periodic reports and complying with the proxy rules under the Exchange Act, and the costs of compliance with the enhanced governance and disclosure requirements under Sarbanes-Oxley to the benefits of being a public company. Based on management estimates that the annual costs of compliance, upon our becoming subject to all requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley could approximate $880,000 per year, it concluded that the benefits that we and our stockholders should derive from being a public company were not being realized and did not justify continuing to incur the substantial costs associated with being public. Furthermore, even though the remaining stockholders will have fewer remedies against Opta, its directors and officers and will no longer benefit from certifications by Opta’s officers as to the accuracy of our financial statements as a result of Opta’s being a private company, we believe that stockholders will benefit more from Opta’s private company status as Opta will likely be able to better focus and streamline its resources on reshaping or restructuring GoVideo and investing in new opportunities.

Fairness to Unaffiliated Stockholders. Those stockholders holding greater than 5,000 Pre-Merger Shares will not receive the Cash Consideration in the Going Private Transaction. Instead, following the Going Private Transaction, those stockholders will hold the same number of shares as prior to the Going Private Transaction. Such stockholders will therefore hold a slightly greater percentage of the outstanding common stock, as a result of the reduction in the number of stockholders.

In addition, any objecting stockholder is entitled to appraisal rights which if properly perfected, would entitle such stockholder to require the Company to repurchase such holder’s shares, even if such stockholder was not eligible for the Cash Consideration. In approving the Going Private Transaction, the Board reviewed and considered the structure of the transaction allowing for appraisal rights to non-consenting stockholders. Such appraisal rights are more fully described in the section entitled “Appraisal Rights” below. In addition, even though Cashed-Out Stockholders

31

will no longer own Opta stock and thus will not benefit in the potential increase in the value of our stock, this factor does not make the transaction unfair to unaffiliated stockholders because unaffiliated stockholders will receive a fair price for the shares of their stock and in fact are receiving a premium price.

In determining the $0.03 per share Cash Consideration price, the Board compared the valuation reports presented by Cronkite & Kissell, against the trading volume and prices of the Company’s stock from April 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006. During such period, trading in the Company’s common stock was sporadic and of the 253 trading days during such period, only 57 days had trades and the majority of the days (196 days) had only quotes. The non-affiliated directors reached the conclusion that the market quoted price is not indicative of the fair value of the Company’s stock, and setting the repurchase price at $0.03 would be fair to stockholders both affected and unaffected by this transaction, i.e. to the Cashed-Out Stockholders and to those holders not receiving the Cash Consideration. While the aggregate Cash Consideration to be paid was estimated to be between $13,278 and $84,013, the non-affiliated directors also concluded that setting the price higher than $0.03 would be unfair to the unaffected remaining stockholders.

Substantive Factors Disfavoring the Going Private Transaction

Inability to Participate in Any Future Increase in the Value of Our Stock

All Cashed-Out Stockholders will no longer own shares of Opta and will have no further equity interest in us with respect to their shares. Accordingly, they will no longer have the opportunity to participate in the potential increase in the value of our stock. Our Board of Directors determined that this factor does not make the transaction unfair to unaffiliated stockholders because unaffiliated stockholders will receive a fair price for the shares of their stock and in fact are receiving a premium price as described above.

We Will No Longer be Subject to the Provisions of the Securities Exchange Act

Following the Going Private Transaction, we will no longer be subject to the Periodic Reporting Obligations, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act or the liability provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In addition, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer will no longer be required to certify as to the accuracy of our financial statements. Accordingly, stockholders who will continue to hold shares of Opta stock after the Going Private Transaction (i.e. stockholders with greater than 5,000 Pre-Merger Shares), will have fewer remedies against Opta, its directors and officers. Our Board of Directors determined that this factor does not make the transaction unfair to unaffiliated stockholders because unaffiliated stockholders are not being treated differently than affiliated stockholders (the difference in treatment is between holders of more than holders of less than 5,000 Pre-Merger Shares) and furthermore, we anticipate that the remaining stockholders will benefit more from Opta’s private company status than its public company status. By terminating its Periodic Reporting Obligations, Opta expects that it will be able to streamline its resources and its management will be able to focus on reshaping GoVideo and investing in new opportunities.

Board of Directors’ Determination and Recommendation

Opta’s Board of Directors consists of four directors, two are affiliated with TCL Corp and two are not affiliated with TCL Corp. First, the two board members not affiliated with TCL Corp reviewed and approved the Going Private Transaction separately. On April 8, 2006 after numerous discussions, the Board of Directors, by unanimous written consent, unanimously

32

concluded that the above factors supported their decision to go forward with the Going Private Transaction. The Board considered Cronkite & Kissell’s evaluation in determining the final offer price, and noticed the changes of the evaluated price as a result of ongoing business operations, which caused the changes in the Company’s financial condition. The Board believes that the financial advisor’s estimate of value is based upon a synthesis of each of the approaches used and their relative strengths and weaknesses and that it is appropriate to draw conclusions from all of the approaches when taken together, not just one approach in isolation. The Board used the financial advisor’s analysis as a reference, and compared it to the Company’s three month average net book value in determining the final offer price.

Moreover, the Board believes that the Going Private Transaction is fair to unaffiliated security holders whether they remain as stockholders or are Cashed-Out Stockholders. In drawing such a conclusion, the Board considered all the factors including current market value, historical market value, net book value, going concern value, liquidation value and purchase prices paid in previous purchases. The discussions of these factors are reflected in other parts of this filing. However, in making the decision to the final offered price, the Board strongly considered these three factors (1) our financial advisor’s valuation, (2) the Company’s net book value, and (3) the market price. The financial advisor’s valuation provided a base for the Board in determining the final offered price. While the Board recognized that the financial advisor’s assessment changed as a result of Opta’s changed financial information, the Board compared Cronkite & Kissell’s analysis to the net book value in the six month period between July 2005 and December 2005 and the independent financial advisor’s estimated value. The Board also reviewed the six-month average net book value between July 2005 and December 2005, and found that the negative book value warranted a reduction of the purchase price from $0.13 to $0.03. Although the $0.03 per share repurchase price approved by the Board is a premium of $0.004 per share over Cronkite & Kissell’s valuation of the Company’s common stock, the maximum possible extra payment would be no more than $11,201. In consideration of all these factors, the Board unanimously agreed to set $0.03 per share as the final purchase price. The Board also used the average daily high price of the Company’s stock as additional reference to the final offered price. Since about 80% of the trading days during the twelve month period ended March 31, 2006 had only quotes and no trades for the Company’s stock, the Board believed that the market price was not indicative of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock, but could only be used as a reference.

While the Board felt it difficult to mathematically quantify the exact weight of each factor, it did consider them. The Board believed that the financial advisor’s analysis more realistically reflect the Company’s current value. For example, the current market price may fluctuate sharply because of lack in liquidity. Lastly, even though the Going Private Transaction was not structured so that approval of at least a majority of unaffiliated security holders is required, the independent directors carefully and separately analyzed the proposed Going Private transaction and all its alternatives and ultimately, such independent directors approved the transaction.

On April 8, 2006 the Board of Directors determined that the Going Private Transaction will provide a fair price to Cashed-Out Stockholders and that ultimately, the costs savings of being a private company outweigh the benefits of public company status. The Board of Directors recommends approval and adoption of the Going Private Transaction and the Cash Consideration to Cashed-Out Stockholders.

General Examples of Potential Effects of the Going Private Transaction

In general, the results of the Going Private Transaction can be illustrated by the following examples:

Hypothetical Scenario Number 1. Stockholder A is a registered stockholder who holds 100 Pre-Merger Shares (prior to the Merger). Upon the Effective Date of the Merger, Stockholder A’s 100 Pre-Merger shares will be converted into the right to receive $3.00 (100 x $0.03).

Hypothetical Scenario Number 2. Stockholder B has 116,258 Pre-Merger Shares. Upon the Effective Date of the Merger, Stockholder B’s shares will result in 23.2516 shares of Common Stock of the Surviving Corporation for a moment. Because Stockholder B has more than one resulting share of Common Stock, Stockholder B will not be eligible for the Cash Consideration. Instead, the 23.2516 shares of Common Stock will be subject to the 5,000-for-1 forward split to be consummated immediately after the Merger, and upon the Effective Date of the Restated Certificate effecting the forward split, the Stockholder will once again own 116,258 shares of Opta Common Stock.

Effects of the Going Private Transaction on Our Company

The Going Private Transaction is expected to reduce the number of record holders. As of the Record Date, 50,037,538 shares of our Common Stock and approximately 4,300 shares of Class A Preferred Stock were outstanding. As a result of the Going Private Transaction, the number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding of record will be reduced from 50,037,538 to approximately 47,237,107 and our outstanding shares of Preferred Stock will be eliminated, assuming approximately 2,800,421 Pre-Merger Shares are cashed out.

Based on the aggregate number of record holders, and the estimated number of holders of record owning more than 5,000 shares of our stock as of the Record Date, we estimate that the Cash Consideration to Cashed-Out Stockholders will total up to approximately $84,013 in the aggregate.

Our Common Stock will continue to have the same $0.001 par value per share following the consummation of the Going Private Transaction. In addition, each resulting whole share of our Common Stock will be entitled to one vote per one whole share.

We have no current plans to issue Common Stock, but we reserve the right to do so at any time and from time to time at such prices and on such terms as our Board of Directors determines to be in our best interests and the best interests of our then existing stockholders.

Conduct of Our Business After the Going Private Transaction - Future Company Plans

Following the Going Private Transaction and the termination of our Periodic Reporting Obligations, we will no longer be a publicly-reporting company, but rather will be a private company. After the consummation of the transactions described in the section “Past Transactions and Developments During the Current Fiscal Year,” Opta will continue to implement and develop GoVideo’s new business model as a brand licensing provider. Additionally Opta currently plans to continue to identify other market opportunities that will create and accelerate the growth and success of Opta complementary with the Company’s business and long-term strategies while leveraging the Company’s significant experience in the consumer electronics market.

Reservation of Right to Abandon the Going Private Transaction

Our Board of Directors retains the right to abandon the Going Private Transaction if it determines prior to the Effective Date of the Merger that the Going Private Transaction is not then in our best

34

interest or the best interest of our stockholders. Among the circumstances that might cause our Board of Directors to abandon the Going Private Transaction is the development of a significant risk of the Going Private Transaction failing to achieve the overall goal of reducing the number of record holders to 300, or where the expense of cashing out the stockholders becomes so high that the transaction become financially prohibitive. If the Going Private Transaction is not implemented, then we will be unable to terminate our Periodic Reporting Obligations until we have fewer than 300 holders of record and satisfy certain other requirements of the Commission.

Escheat Laws

The unclaimed property and escheat laws of various states provide that under circumstances defined in those states’ statutes, holders of unclaimed or abandoned property must surrender that property to the state. Persons whose shares are canceled and whose addresses are unknown to us, or who do not comply with the required procedures and request payment therefor, generally will have a fixed period of years from the Effective Date of the Merger in which to claim the Cash Consideration payable to them. For example, with respect to stockholders whose last known addresses are in California, the period is three years. Following the expiration of that three-year period, the Unclaimed Property Law of California would likely cause the Cash Consideration to escheat to the State of California. For stockholders who reside in other states or whose last known addresses are in states other than California, those other states may have abandoned property laws that call for the state to obtain either (i) custodial possession of property that has been unclaimed until the owner reclaims it; or (ii) escheat of such property to the state. Under the laws of those other jurisdictions, the “holding period,” the time period that must elapse before the property is deemed to be abandoned, may be shorter or longer than three years. If we do not have an address for the holder of record of the shares, then we would turn over unclaimed Cash Consideration to our state of incorporation, the state of Delaware, in accordance with its escheat laws.

Appraisal Rights

Under Delaware law, if holders of Opta stock do not wish to accept the Cash Consideration or the share certificates provided for in the Agreement of Merger with respect to the Going Private Transaction, such holders have the right to demand an appraisal of the fair value of such shares conducted by the Delaware Court of Chancery. OPTA STOCKHOLDERS WHO ELECT TO DEMAND APPRAISAL RIGHTS MUST COMPLY WITH THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 262 OF THE DELAWARE GENERAL CORPORATION LAW IN ORDER TO PERFECT THEIR RIGHTS. OPTA WILL REQUIRE STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH THE STATUTORY PROCEDURES. The following is intended as a brief summary of the material provisions of the Delaware statutory procedures required to be followed by an Opta stockholder in order to dissent from the Going Private Transaction and perfect the stockholder’s appraisal rights. This summary, however, is not a complete statement of all applicable requirements and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the full text of which appears in Annex I of this information statement. Section 262 requires that Opta notify stockholders either before the Effective Date of the Merger or within 10 days thereafter that appraisal rights will be available to stockholders. A copy of Section 262 must be included with such notice. This information statement constitutes Opta’s notice to its stockholders of the availability of appraisal rights in connection with the Going Private Transaction in compliance with the requirements of Section 262. If you wish to consider exercising your appraisal rights, you should carefully review the text of Section 262 contained in Annex I because failure to timely and properly comply with the requirements of Section 262 will result in the loss of your appraisal rights.

35

If you elect to demand appraisal of your shares, you must satisfy all of the following conditions:

•                  You must deliver to Opta a written demand for appraisal of your shares of Opta before            , 200   , which is 20 days after the definitive information statement is filed with the Commission and delivered to stockholders. Failure to consent to the approval of the Going Private Transaction by itself does not constitute a demand for appraisal within the meaning of Section 262. Any stockholders who consented in writing to the approval of the Going Private Transaction are deemed to have waived their appraisal rights in respect of the shares so voted and will nullify any previously filed written demands for appraisal.

•                  You must continuously hold your shares of Opta through the Effective Date of the Merger. If you fail to comply with any of these conditions and the Going Private Transaction is completed, you will be entitled to receive the Cash Consideration or retain your shares of Opta as provided for in the Agreement of Merger, but will have no appraisal rights with respect to your shares of Opta stock. All demands for appraisal should be addressed to Opta Corporation, Attn: Investor Relations, 1350 Bayshore Highway, Suite 600, Burlingame, CA 94010 and should be executed by, or on behalf of, the record holder of the shares of Opta stock. The demand must reasonably inform Opta of the identity of the stockholder and the intention of the stockholder to demand appraisal of its shares.

•                  TO BE EFFECTIVE, A DEMAND FOR APPRAISAL BY A HOLDER OF OPTA STOCK MUST BE MADE BY OR IN THE NAME OF SUCH REGISTERED STOCKHOLDER, FULLY AND CORRECTLY, AS THE STOCKHOLDER’S NAME APPEARS ON ITS STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND CANNOT BE MADE BY THE BENEFICIAL OWNER IF SUCH BENEFICIAL OWNER DOES NOT ALSO HOLD THE SHARES OF RECORD. THE BENEFICIAL HOLDER MUST, IN SUCH CASES, HAVE THE REGISTERED OWNER SUBMIT THE REQUIRED DEMAND IN RESPECT OF SUCH SHARES. If shares are owned of record in a fiduciary capacity, such as by a trustee, guardian or custodian, execution of a demand for appraisal should be made in such capacity; and if the shares are owned of record by more than one person, as in a joint tenancy or tenancy in common, the demand should be executed by or for all joint owners. An authorized agent, including one for two or more joint owners, may execute the demand for appraisal for a stockholder of record; however, the agent must identify the record owner or owners and expressly disclose the fact that, in executing the demand, he or she is acting as agent for the record owner. A record owner, such as a broker, who holds shares as a nominee for others, may exercise his or her right of appraisal with respect to the shares held for one or more beneficial owners, while not exercising this right for other beneficial owners. In such case, the written demand should state the number of shares as to which appraisal is sought. Where no number of shares is expressly mentioned, the demand will be presumed to cover all shares held in the name of such record owner. If you hold your shares of Opta stock in a brokerage account or in other nominee form and you wish to exercise appraisal rights, you should consult with your broker or such other nominee to determine the appropriate procedures for the making of a demand for appraisal by such nominee.

•                  Within ten days after the Effective Date of the Merger, Opta must give written notice that the Merger has become effective to each stockholder of Opta who has properly filed a written demand for appraisal and who did not vote in favor of the approval of the Merger.

36

Within 120 days after the Effective Date, either Opta or any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of Section 262 may file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the fair value of the shares held by all stockholders entitled to appraisal. Opta does not presently intend to file such a petition in the event there are dissenting stockholders and has no obligation to do so. Accordingly, your failure to file such a petition within the period specified could nullify your previously written demand for appraisal. At any time within 60 days after the Effective Date, any stockholder who has demanded an appraisal has the right to withdraw the demand and to accept the Cash Consideration specified by the Agreement of Merger for his or her shares of Opta stock. Any stockholder who has complied with the appraisal procedures is entitled to receive from Opta within 120 days of the Effective Date, a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not consenting to the Merger and with respect to which demands for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. Such statement shall be mailed within 10 days after such stockholder’s written request is received by Opta or within 10 days after expiration of the period for delivery of demands for appraisal, whichever is later. If a petition for appraisal is duly filed by a stockholder and a copy of the petition is delivered to Opta, Opta will then be obligated within 20 days after receiving service of a copy of the petition to provide the Chancery Court with a duly verified list containing the names and addresses of all stockholders who have demanded an appraisal of their shares. After notice to dissenting stockholders, the Chancery Court is empowered to conduct a hearing upon the petition, to determine those stockholders who have complied with Section 262 and who have become entitled to the appraisal rights provided thereby. The Chancery Court may require the stockholders who have demanded payment for their shares to submit their stock certificates to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such stockholder. After determination of the stockholders entitled to appraisal of their shares of Opta stock, the Chancery Court will appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Going Private Transaction, together with a fair rate of interest. THE PER SHARE VALUE WILL BE A PRO RATA PORTION OF THE APPRAISAL DETERMINED BY THE CHANCERY COURT AND THE MARKETABLE MINORITY DISCOUNT APPLIED BY CRONKITE & KISSELL IN ITS ANALYSIS AND OPINION WILL NOT BE APPLIED IN THE COURT’S APPRAISAL. When the value is determined, the Chancery Court will direct the payment of such value, with interest thereon accrued during the pendency of the proceeding if the Chancery Court so determines, to the stockholders entitled to receive the same, upon surrender by such holders of the certificates representing such shares.

•                  In determining fair value, the Chancery Court is required to take into account all relevant factors. You should be aware that the fair value of the shares as determined under Section 262 could be more, the same, or less than the value that you are entitled to receive pursuant to the Agreement of Merger with respect to the Going Private Transaction. Costs of the appraisal proceeding may be imposed upon Opta and the stockholders participating in the appraisal proceeding by the Chancery Court as the Chancery Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon the application of a stockholder, the Chancery Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and the fees and expenses of experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all shares entitled to appraisal. Any stockholder who had

37

demanded appraisal rights will not, after the Effective Date of the Merger, be entitled to vote shares subject to such demand for any purpose or to receive payments of dividends or any other distribution with respect to such shares, other than with respect to payment as of a record date before the Effective Date of the Merger; however, if no petition for appraisal is filed within 120 days after the Effective Date of the Merger, or if such stockholder delivers a written withdrawal of his or her demand for appraisal and an acceptance of the Merger within 60 days after the Effective Date of the Merger, then the right of such stockholder to appraisal will cease and such stockholder will be entitled to receive the Cash Consideration for shares of his or her Opta stock or the retention of shares of Common Stock of Opta pursuant to the Agreement of Merger. Any withdrawal of a demand for appraisal made more than 60 days after the Effective Date may only be made with the written approval of the surviving corporation and must, to be effective, be made within 120 days after the Effective Date. In view of the complexity of Section 262, Opta stockholders who may wish to pursue appraisal rights should consult their legal advisors.

The text of the applicable statute is attached hereto as Annex I.

Material Federal Income Tax Consequences

Summarized below are the material federal income tax consequences to us and our stockholders resulting from the Going Private Transaction. This summary is based on existing U.S. federal income tax law, which may change, even retroactively. This summary also assumes that the stockholders have held and, if applicable, will continue to hold their shares as capital assets under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. This summary does not discuss all aspects of federal income taxation, including certain aspects that may be important to stockholders in light of their individual circumstances. Many stockholders, such as banks, financial institutions, insurance companies, broker-dealers, tax-exempt organizations, and securities traders that elect mark-to-market tax accounting treatment, may be subject to special tax rules. Other stockholders may also be subject to special tax rules, including but not limited to: stockholders who received our Common Stock as compensation for services or pursuant to the exercise of an employee stock option, or stockholders who have held, or will hold, stock as part of a straddle, hedging, or conversion transaction for federal income tax purposes. In addition, this summary does not discuss any state, local, foreign, or other tax considerations.

For purposes of this discussion, “U.S. person” means any of the following:

(1) a citizen or resident of the U.S.;

(2) a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized under U.S. law (federal or state);

(3) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its sources;

(4) a trust if a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or if the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person; or

38

(5) any other person whose worldwide income and gain is otherwise subject to U.S. federal income taxation on a net basis.

As used in this discussion, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of our capital stock that is a U.S. person, and the term “non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of our capital stock that is not a U.S. person.

We urge stockholders to consult with their own tax advisor as to the particular federal, state, local, foreign and other tax consequences, in light of their specific circumstances. If a partnership holds our stock, the tax treatment of a partner generally will depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. If the stockholder is a partner of a partnership holding our stock, we suggest that such stockholder consult his or her tax advisor.

Federal Income Tax Consequences to Our Company

We believe that the Going Private Transaction will be treated as a tax-free “recapitalization” for federal income tax purposes. This will result in no material federal income tax consequences to our company.

Federal Income Tax Consequences to Stockholders Receiving No Cash Consideration from the Going Private Transaction

If a stockholder (1) continues to hold our Common Stock immediately after the Going Private Transaction, and (2) receives no Cash Consideration as a result of the Going Private Transaction, such stockholder will not recognize any gain or loss in the Going Private Transaction. The aggregate adjusted tax basis in shares of our Common Stock held immediately after the Going Private Transaction will be equal to the aggregate adjusted tax basis in the shares of Common Stock held immediately prior to the Going Private Transaction, and the stockholder will have the same holding period in the Common Stock as it had in such stock immediately prior to the Going Private Transaction.

Federal Income Tax Consequences to Stockholders Receiving Cash Consideration from the Going Private Transaction

If a stockholder receives Cash Consideration as a result of the Going Private Transaction and is not related to any person or entity that holds our Common Stock immediately after the Going Private Transaction, the stockholder will recognize capital gain or loss. The amount of capital gain or loss the stockholder recognizes will equal the difference between the cash received for the cashed-out stock and the aggregate adjusted tax basis in such stock.

If a stockholder is related to a person or entity who continues to hold our Common Stock immediately after the Going Private Transaction, such stockholder will recognize gain or loss in the same manner as set forth in the previous paragraph, provided that such receipt of cash either is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend,” or is a “substantially disproportionate redemption of stock,” as described below.

•                  “Not Essentially Equivalent to a Dividend.” A stockholder will satisfy the “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” test if the reduction in its proportionate interest in our company resulting from the Going Private Transaction is considered a “meaningful reduction” given the particular facts and circumstances. The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has ruled that a small reduction by a minority stockholder whose relative stock interest is minimal and exercises no control over the affairs of the corporation will meet this test.

39

•                  “Substantially Disproportionate Redemption of Stock.” The receipt of cash in the Going Private Transaction will be a “substantially disproportionate redemption of stock” for a stockholder if the stockholder owns less than 50% of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock after the Going Private Transaction, and the percentage of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock owned by the stockholder immediately after the Going Private Transaction is less than 80% of the percentage of shares of our Common Stock it owned immediately before the Going Private Transaction.

In applying these tests, the stockholder will be treated as owning shares actually or constructively owned by certain individuals and entities related to the stockholder. If the receipt of Cash Consideration does not give rise to capital gain or loss under any of the tests, it will be treated first as ordinary dividend income to the extent of the stockholder’s ratable share of our undistributed earnings and profits, then as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of its aggregate adjusted tax basis in the shares, and any remaining amount will be treated as capital gain.

Dividend Income, Capital Gain and Capital Loss

The U.S. federal income tax rate currently applicable to dividends received from domestic corporations by an individual taxpayer is a maximum of 15%, subject to the requirements the individual must have held the stock with respect to which a dividend is distributed for a minimum of 61 days during the 120-day period beginning 60 days before the stock becomes ex-dividend. A taxpayer’s holding period for these purposes is reduced by periods during which the taxpayer’s risk of loss with respect to the stock is considered diminished by reason of the existence of options, contracts to sell and similar transactions. The reduced rate of tax applies to the taxable years between 2003 and 2008. Individual stockholders should consult their own advisors as to their eligibility for the reduced rate of tax in relation to dividends.

Federal legislation also reduced the maximum U.S. federal income tax rate applicable to net capital gain (defined generally as the total capital gains in excess of capital losses for the year) recognized upon the sale of capital assets that have been held for more than 12 months to 15%. The reduced rate of tax applies to the taxable years between 2003 and 2008. Net capital gain recognized from the sale of capital assets that have been held for 12 months or less will continue to be subject to tax at ordinary income tax rates. Capital gain recognized by a corporate taxpayer will also continue to be subject to tax at the ordinary income tax rates applicable to corporations. For both individual and corporate taxpayers, there are significant limitations on the deductibility of capital losses.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, payments of dividends are subject to information reporting. Each paying agent will be required to provide the IRS with information, including the name, address, and taxpayer identification number of each U.S. Holder receiving payments, and the aggregate amount of dividends paid to such beneficial owner during the calendar year. These reporting requirements, however, do not apply to all beneficial owners. Specifically, corporations, securities broker-dealers, other financial institutions, tax-exempt organizations, qualified pension and profit sharing trusts and individual retirement accounts, and non-U.S. persons satisfying certain requirements are all excluded from reporting requirements.

40

U.S. Holders will be required to provide their social security or other taxpayer identification numbers, and in some instances, additional information, to the Company in connection with the Going Private Transaction to avoid backup withholding requirements that might otherwise apply. Backup withholding will apply if a U.S. Holder fails to establish its exemption from the information reporting requirements, is subject to the reporting requirements and fails to supply its correct taxpayer identification number in the manner required by applicable law, or underreports its tax liability, or if the paying agent has been otherwise notified by the IRS to backup withhold. The backup withholding tax rate is currently 28%. This backup withholding tax is not an additional tax and may be credited against a U.S. Holder’s federal income tax liability if the required information is furnished to the IRS.

Special Rules for Non-U.S. Holders

If a stockholder is a non-U.S. Holder, its tax consequences will depend on whether its income or gain from the Going Private Transaction is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, or, if there is an applicable treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained in the U.S. Performance of significant personal services constitutes the conduct of a U.S. trade or business.

Income or Gain Not Effectively Connected with the Conduct of a U.S. Trade or Business

Except as described below under the heading “Income or Gain Effectively Connected with the Conduct of a U.S. Trade or Business,” dividends (including deemed dividends) paid on our Common Stock held by a non-U.S. holder will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax (but not the federal income tax) at a rate of 30% or lower treaty rate, if applicable. In order to claim a reduction of withholding under a tax treaty, a non-U.S. holder generally will be required to file IRS Form W-8BEN upon which the non-U.S. holder certifies, under penalty of perjury, its status as a non-U.S. person and its entitlement to the lower treaty rate with respect to such payments. Further, a non-U.S. holder will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on gain realized on the taxable disposition of our Common Stock.

Income or Gain Effectively Connected with the Conduct of a U.S. Trade or Business

If dividends paid to a non-U.S. Holder are effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business by the non-U.S. Holder or, if required by a tax treaty, the dividends are attributable to a permanent establishment maintained in the United States by the non-U.S. Holder, us and other payors generally are not required to withhold tax from the dividends, provided that the non-U.S. Holder furnishes a valid IRS Form W-8ECI certifying, under penalty of perjury, that the holder is a non-U.S. person, and the dividends are effectively connected with the holder’s conduct of a U.S. trade or business and are includible in the holder’s gross income. Effectively connected dividends will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on net income that applies to U.S. persons generally (and, with respect to corporate holders under certain circumstances, the branch profits tax).

In the case of any gain that is effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business by a non-U.S. Holder (and, if required by a tax treaty, any gain that is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained in the United States), the non-U.S. Holder will generally be taxed on its net gain derived from the disposition at the regular rates and in the manner applicable to U.S. persons and, if the non-U.S. Holder is a foreign corporation, the branch profits tax may also apply.

41

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

We must report annually to the IRS and to each non-U.S. holder the amount of dividends paid to that holder and the tax withheld from such dividend payments. These reporting requirements apply regardless of whether withholding was reduced or eliminated by any applicable tax treaty. Copies of the information returns reporting dividend payments and any withholding thereof may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the non-U.S. holder is a resident under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or agreement.

A non-U.S. holder will generally not be subject to additional information reporting or to backup withholding with respect to dividend payments on our Common Stock, or to information reporting or backup withholding with respect to payments of proceeds from the disposition of our Common Stock to or through a U.S. office of any broker, as long as the holder has furnished to the payor or broker: (i) a valid IRS Form W-8BEN certifying, under penalties of perjury, its status as a non-U.S. person; (ii) other documentation upon which it may rely to treat the payments as made to a non-U.S. person in accordance with Treasury regulations; or (iii) otherwise establishes an exemption.

Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to a non-U.S. holder will be allowed as a credit against such holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, or will otherwise be refundable, provided that the requisite procedures are followed and the proper information is filed with the IRS on a timely basis. Non-U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding their qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for obtaining such an exemption, if applicable.

As explained above, the amounts paid to a stockholder as a result of the Going Private Transaction may result in dividend income, capital gain income, or some combination of dividend and capital gain income to such stockholder depending on its individual circumstances. We urge each stockholder to consult its tax advisor as to the particular federal, state, local, foreign, and other tax consequences of the transaction, in light of the specific circumstances.

Tax Consequences to Affiliated Security Holders

LIH and TCL Industries will treat the Going Private Transaction as a tax-free “recapitalization”. They will not receive any cash consideration and will continue to hold our Common Stock after the Going Private Transaction. Neither will recognize any gain or loss in the Going Private Transaction.

Market Prices of Our Common Stock and Dividend Policy

Opta’s common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “LPFC” on December 1, 1994. As previously reported, on November 5, 2002, the Company’s shares of common stock were removed from the OTC Bulletin Board for failure to comply with NASD Rule 6530, as a result of the Company’s inability to timely file its Form 10-K for fiscal 2002. Opta became current in all its required filings on May 20, 2005. From November 5, 2002 through October 12, 2004, the Company’s shares of common stock were quoted on the National Quotation Bureau’s “Pink Sheets,” under the symbol “LPFC.”  Effective October 13, 2004, in connection with the name change from “Lotus Pacific, Inc.” to “Opta Corporation,” the Company’s shares of common stock are quoted on the Pink Sheets under the symbol “OPTP.PK.”  Trading in the Company’s common stock has been minimal with limited or sporadic quotations and there is no established public trading market for the Company’s common stock. The high and low common stock prices per share were as follows:

These OTC Bulletin Board market quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

To date, the Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock. The Company anticipates that it will retain all available funds for use in operation and expansion of its business, and no cash dividends are expected to be paid on the common stock in the foreseeable future.

More comprehensive financial information is included in the Annual Report and the Quarterly Reports. The financial information that follows is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, the Annual Report, the Quarterly Reports and all of the financial statements and related notes contained in the Annual Report and the Quarterly Report and in all other information filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, copies of which may be obtained as set forth below under the caption “Other Matters - Where You Can Find More Information” on page 48.

OPTA CORPORATION FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS (UNAUDITED)  (1)

(1) The dissolution of Correlant, based on Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“SFAS 144”), met the criteria of discontinued operations during the three months ended September 30, 2005.

(2) The results of operations for fiscal 2003 included GoVideo’s activity since the April 18, 2003 purchase date.

Executive Summary of Financial Highlights

Opta’s Financial Highlights above are indicative of the fact that Opta has operated in a competitive market. And as the competition and globalization of the consumer electronics market has increased, Opta’s ability to compete has decreased. As a result, the value of the Company has significantly deteriorated during the past few years and continues to deteriorate as additional losses are incurred. Specifically, since the Going Private Transaction was contemplated, the financial position of the Company has decreased as a result of the Company’s net loss. The most significant impact to the Company’s financial position has been the shut down of GoVideo’s historical operations as a consumer electronics original equipment manufacturer. During this time, GoVideo focused on the shut down process, e.g. selling existing inventory, collecting outstanding accounts receivable and managing existing liabilities, rather than focusing on business strategies that had been previously utilized, e.g. introduction of new innovative products to the market and increasing the GoVideo brand recognition in both the U.S. markets and abroad. And although shutting down GoVideo’s historical operations was required to address the continued losses and liquidity issued with GoVideo, the shut down has had a negative impact on the short run value of the Company due to the fact that GoVideo’s revenues decreased significantly quicker than GoVideo’s expenses. GoVideo’s shut down took longer, was more costly and more complex and had a larger impact on the financial position of the Company than management and the Board of Directors originally anticipated.

PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

  The Going Private Transaction, if consummated, will decrease cash by approximately $84,000, which is the estimated total Cash Consideration. As the $84,000 reduction to cash is the only effect of the transaction to the Company’s current financial position, pro forma financial statements are not presented.

Dear Gentlemen:

Opta Corporation (formerly Lotus Pacific, Inc.) a Delaware corporation, is a holding company whose operations are conducted through its subsidiaries. Opta Corporation (“Opta” or the Company hereinafter) develops, manages, and operates emerging electronics and communication companies, focusing on developing next generation consumer electronics and communication products. Corporate headquarters is located in Burlingame, California. Ownership is represented by 50,037,538 shares of common stock and 4,300 shares of Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this letter.

Opta’s stock is quoted on the National Quotation Bureau’s “Pink Sheets’” under the symbol “OPTP”. The current trading of the Company’s stock is sporadic and minimal and there is no established public trading market for the Company’s common stock. It is our understanding that Opta plans to make payments to certain shareholders in connection with Opta’s going private transaction at a price of $.13 per share (“Transaction” hereinafter).

You have requested our opinion (the “Opinion”) as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of the Transaction to the shareholders of the Company. The Opinion does not address the Company’s underlying business decision to enter into the Transaction. The Opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any Opta shareholder as to whether they should tender their shares in connection with this Transaction nor as to any action that should be taken by such shareholder in connection with the Transaction. We have not been requested to, and did not, solicit third party indications of interest in participating in the Transaction. Furthermore, at your request, we have not negotiated the terms of the Transaction.

In connection with this Opinion, we have made such reviews, analyses and inquiries as we have deemed necessary and appropriate under the circumstances. Among other things, we have:

1.             reviewed our analysis and valuation of Opta as of June 14, 2005;

D-1

2.             reviewed our prior financial analyses of Opta Systems, LLC d.b.a. “Go Video” as of April 18, 2003 and June 30, 2004;

3.             discussed with certain members of the senior management of the Company and Go Video the operations, financial condition, future prospects and projected operations and performance of the Company;

4.             reviewed the Company’s Form 10-K as of June 30, 2004 and Form 10-Q as of March 31, 2005, and reviewed the Company’s unaudited consolidating financial statements for the month ended May 31, 2005;

5.             reviewed a fiscal 2005 budget prepared by Go Video’s management with respect to Go Video;

6.             reviewed the Unanimous Written Consent of the Board of Directors of Opta Corporation executed on June 16, 2005;

7.             reviewed an undated draft of the Form 14C that the Company is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Transaction; and

8.             conducted such other studies, analyses and inquiries as we have deemed appropriate.

We have relied upon and assumed, without independent verification, that the financial forecasts and projections provided to us have been reasonably prepared and reflect the best currently available estimates of the future financial results and condition of the Company, and that there has been no material change in the assets, financial condition, business or prospects of the Company since the date of the most recent financial statements made available to us.

We have not independently verified the accuracy and completeness of the information supplied to us with respect to the Company and do not assume any responsibility with respect to it. We have not made any physical inspection or independent appraisal of any of the properties or assets of the Company. Our opinion is necessarily based on business, economic, market and other conditions as they exist and can be evaluated by us at the date of this letter.

June 14, 2005 Cronkite & Kissell Valuation Opinion

Pursuant to the retainer agreement dated May 27, 2005 between Opta and Cronkite and Kissell, Cronkite & Kissell was engaged to estimate the fair market value of the common stock of the Company, as of June 14, 2005 (“Valuation Opinion”). We understood that our conclusions were to be reviewed by the Board of Directors as part of their process in determining the payments to be made to certain shareholders in connection with the Transaction; but were not the only determinant.

The term “fair market value,” as used herein, is defined as the price at which an asset would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller when the former is not under any compulsion to buy and the latter is not under any compulsion to sell, and both

D-2

parties are able, as well as willing, to trade and are well-informed about the asset and the market for that asset.

It is the understanding of Cronkite & Kissell, upon which it is relying, that the Company and any other recipient of the Valuation Opinion will consult with and rely solely upon their own legal counsel with respect to said definitions. No representation is made herein, or directly or indirectly by the Valuation Opinion, as to any legal matter or as to the sufficiency of said definitions for any purpose other than setting forth the scope of Cronkite & Kissell’s Valuation Opinion hereunder.

In our analysis of Opta, we have taken into consideration the income- and cash-generating capability of the Company. Typically, an investor contemplating an investment in a company with income- and cash-generating capability similar to Opta will evaluate the risks and returns of its investment on a going-concern basis.

The Company’s independent audit firm has questioned the Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern, as stated in their cover letter to the Board of Directors and Stockholders accompanying the audited financials for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004. Furthermore, the Company notes in its March 31, 2005 10-Q filing “... the above raises substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going-concern. Although Opta expects to incur additional losses during the remainder of fiscal 2005, the Company believes that it will have sufficient resources to continue normal operations.”

Accordingly, after due consideration of other appropriate and generally accepted valuation methodologies, the enterprise value of the Company has been developed primarily by the market and income approach. As a secondary indication, however, we have considered an asset approach to valuation, specifically an orderly liquidation scenario.

Value as a going-concern means that the underlying tangible assets of the Company are presumed, in the absence of a qualified appraisal of such assets, to attain their highest values as integral components of a business entity in continued operation and that liquidation of said assets would likely diminish the value of the whole to the members and creditors of the Company.

All valuation methodologies that estimate the worth of an enterprise as a going-concern are predicated on numerous assumptions pertaining to prospective economic and operating conditions. Our opinion is necessarily based on business, economic, market and other conditions as they exist and can be evaluated by us as of the valuation date. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur and actual results may vary from those assumed. The variations may be material.

Based upon the investigation, premises, provisos, and analyses outlined above, it is our opinion that, as of June 14, 2005, the fair market value of the common stock of the Company is reasonably stated in the amount of FOUR MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($4,800,000) or TEN CENTS PER SHARE ($.10) based upon 50,037,538 shares of common stock and 4,300 shares of Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the valuation date.

D-3

Fairness Opinion

Based upon the foregoing, including, but not limited to the Valuation Opinion, and in reliance thereon, it is our Opinion, as of the date of this letter, that the Transaction is fair to the shareholders of the Company from a financial point of view. The Opinion does not constitute a recommendation to any Opta shareholder as to whether they should tender their shares in connection with this Transaction nor as to any action that should be taken by such shareholder in connection with the Transaction.

This Opinion is delivered to each recipient subject to the conditions, scope of engagement, limitations and understandings set forth in this Opinion and our engagement letter, and subject to the understanding that the obligations of Cronkite & Kissell in the Transaction are solely corporate obligations, and no officer, director, employee, agent, shareholder or controlling person of Cronkite & Kissell shall be subjected to any personal liability whatsoever to any person, nor will any such claim be asserted by or on behalf of you or your affiliates. Notwithstanding the above, we understand that this Opinion will be disclosed to the shareholders of the Company as part of the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Cronkite & Kissell Valuation Opinion

Pursuant to the retainer agreement dated May 27, 2005, between Opta and Cronkite & Kissell, Cronkite & Kissell was engaged to estimate the fair market value of the common stock of the Company, as of June 14, 2005 (“Valuation Opinion”). We understood that our conclusions were to be reviewed by the Board of Directors as part of their process in determining the payments to be made to certain shareholders in connection with the Transaction; but were not the only determinant. Cronkite & Kissell was requested to update their estimate of the fair market value of Opta as of August 2, 2005, giving consideration to the events described in the recent 8-K filings.

The term “fair market value,” as used herein, is defined as the price at which an asset changes hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller when the former is not under any compulsion to buy and the latter is not under any compulsion to sell, and both parties are able, as well as willing, to trade and are well-informed about the asset and the market for that asset.

by the Valuation Opinion, as to any legal matter or as to the sufficiency of said definitions for any purpose other than setting forth the scope of Cronkite & Kissell’s Valuation Opinion hereunder.

Typically, an investor contemplating an investment in a company with income- and cash-generating capability similar to Opta will evaluate the risks and returns of its investment on a going-concern basis.

Based upon the foregoing, including, but not limited to the Valuation Opinion, and in reliance thereon, it is our Opinion, as of the date of this letter, that the Transaction is fair to the shareholders of the Company from a financial point of view.

We understood that our conclusions were to be reviewed by the Board of Directors as part of their process in determining the payments to be made to certain shareholders in connection with the Transaction; but were not the only determinant. Cronkite & Kissell was requested to update our estimate of the fair market value of Opta as of August 2, 2005, giving consideration to the events described in the recent 8-K filings. Cronkite & Kissell was again requested to update our estimate of the fair market value of Opta as of September 20, 2005, giving consideration to the restructuring of the GoVideo operations. Finally, Cronkite & Kissell was requested to update our estimate of the fair market value of Opta as of February 25, 2006 giving consideration to more recent financial results and the Company’s new business model of licensing activity only.

The term “fair market value,” as used herein, is defined as the price at which an asset would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller when the former is not under any compulsion to buy and the latter is not under any compulsion to sell, and both parties are able, as well as willing, to trade and are well-informed about the asset and the market for that asset.

It is the understanding of Cronkite & Kissell, upon which it is relying, that the Company and any other recipient of the Valuation Opinion will consult with and rely solely upon their own legal

G-2

counsel with respect to said definitions. No representation is made herein, or directly or indirectly by the Valuation Opinion, as to any legal matter or as to the sufficiency of said definitions for any purpose other than setting forth the scope of Cronkite & Kissell’s Valuation Opinion hereunder.

n our analysis of Opta, we have taken into consideration the income- and cash-generating capability of the Company. Typically, an investor contemplating an investment in a company with income- and cash-generating capability similar to Opta will evaluate the risks and returns of its investment on a going-concern basis. The Company’s independent audit firm has questioned the Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern, as stated in their cover letter to the Board of Directors and Stockholders accompanying the audited financials for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. Furthermore, the Company notes in its June 20, 2005 10-K filing “Although the Company expects GoVideo to incur additional losses until the new GoVideo business model is implemented or GoVideo operations are shut down, the Company anticipates that its current cash and cash equivalents and the ability to borrow from related parties will be sufficient to fund its operations at least through June 30, 2006.”

Accordingly, after due consideration of other appropriate and generally accepted valuation methodologies, the enterprise value of the Company has been developed by the income approach.

Value as a going-concern means that the underlying tangible assets of the Company are presumed, in the absence of a qualified appraisal of such assets, to attain their highest values as integral components of a business entity in continued operation and that liquidation of said assets would likely diminish the value of the whole to the members and creditors of the Company.

All valuation methodologies that estimate the worth of an enterprise as a going-concern are predicated on numerous assumptions pertaining to prospective economic and operating conditions. Our opinion is necessarily based on business, economic, market and other conditions as they exist and can be evaluated by us as of the valuation date. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur and actual results may vary from those assumed. The variations may be material.

Based upon the investigation, premises, provisos, and analyses outlined above, it is our opinion that, as of February 25, 2006 the fair market value of the common stock of the Company is reasonably stated in the amount of ONE MILLION ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,100,000) or $.02 based upon 50,037,538 shares of common stock and 4,300 shares of Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the valuation date.

Fairness Opinion

Based upon the foregoing, including, but not limited to the Valuation Opinion, and in reliance thereon, it is our Opinion, as of the date of this letter, that the Transaction is fair to the unaffiliated shareholders of the Company from a financial point of view.

This Opinion is delivered to each recipient subject to the conditions, scope of engagement, limitations and understandings set forth in this Opinion and our engagement letter, and subject to the understanding that the obligations of Cronkite & Kissell in the Transaction are solely corporate obligations, and no officer, director, employee, agent, shareholder or controlling person of Cronkite & Kissell shall be subjected to any personal liability whatsoever to any person, nor will any such claim be asserted by or on behalf of you or your affiliates.

 Cronkite & Kissell Valuation Opinion

Pursuant to the retainer agreement dated May 27, 2005 between Opta and Cronkite and Kissell, Cronkite & Kissell was engaged to estimate the fair market value of the common stock of the Company, as of June 14, 2005 (“Valuation Opinion”). We understood that our conclusions were to be reviewed by the Board of Directors as part of their process in determining the payments to be made to certain shareholders in connection with the Transaction; but were not the only determinant. Cronkite & Kissell was requested to update our estimate of the fair market value of Opta as of August 2, 2005, giving consideration to the events described in the recent 8-K filings. Cronkite & Kissell was again requested to update our estimate of the fair market value of Opta as of September 20, 2005, giving consideration to the restructuring of the GoVideo operations and of March 26, 2006 giving consideration to the Company’s most recent financial performance and new business model.

The term “fair market value,” as used herein, is defined as the price at which an asset would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller when the former is not under any compulsion to buy and the latter is not under any compulsion to sell, and both parties are able, as well as willing, to trade and are well-informed about the asset and the market for that asset.

It is the understanding of Cronkite & Kissell, upon which it is relying, that the Company and any other recipient of the Valuation Opinion will consult with and rely solely upon their own legal counsel with respect to said definitions. No representation is made herein, or directly or indirectly by the Valuation Opinion, as to any legal matter or as to the sufficiency of said definitions for any purpose other than setting forth the scope of Cronkite & Kissell’s Valuation Opinion hereunder.

In our analysis of Opta, we have taken into consideration the income- and cash-generating capability of the Company. Typically, an investor contemplating an investment in a company with income- and cash-generating capability similar to Opta will evaluate the risks and returns of its investment on a going-concern basis. The Company’s independent audit firm has questioned the Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern, as stated in their cover letter to the Board of Directors and Stockholders accompanying the audited financials for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. Furthermore, the Company notes in its March 31, 2006 10-Q filing “... the above raises substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going-concern. Although Opta expects to incur additional losses during the remainder of fiscal 2006, the Company believes that it will have sufficient resources to continue normal operations.”

Accordingly, after due consideration of other appropriate and generally accepted valuation methodologies, the enterprise value of the Company has been developed primarily by the income approach.

Value as a going-concern means that the underlying tangible assets of the Company are presumed, in the absence of a qualified appraisal of such assets, to attain their highest values as integral components of a business entity in continued operation and that liquidation of said assets would likely diminish the value of the whole to the members and creditors of the Company.

All valuation methodologies that estimate the worth of an enterprise as a going-concern are predicated on numerous assumptions pertaining to prospective economic and operating conditions. Our opinion is necessarily based on business, economic, market and other conditions as they exist and can be evaluated by us as of the valuation date. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur and actual results may vary from those assumed. The variations may be material.

Based upon the investigation, premises, provisos, and analyses outlined above, it is our opinion that, as of March 26, 2006, the fair market value of the common stock of the Company is reasonably stated in the amount of ONE MILLION THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,300,000) or $.026 based upon 50,037,538 shares of common stock and 4,300 shares of Series A preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the valuation date.

Fairness Opinion

Based upon the foregoing, including, but not limited to the Valuation Opinion, and in reliance thereon, it is our Opinion, as of the date of this letter, that the price paid in the Transaction is fair to the unaffiliated shareholders of the Company from a financial point of view.

This Opinion is furnished solely for your benefit and may not be relied upon by any other person without our express, prior written consent. This Opinion is delivered to each recipient subject to the conditions, scope of engagement, limitations and understandings set forth in this Opinion and our engagement letter, and subject to the understanding that the obligations of Cronkite & Kissell in the Transaction are solely corporate obligations, and no officer, director, employee, agent, shareholder or controlling person of Cronkite & Kissell shall be subjected to any personal liability
