preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the incidental documents hereto, less the amounts due and owing to Participant pursuant to the Participation Agreement, dated July , 2005, by and between Seller and Buyer, as thereafter amended, supplemented or modified (the “Participation Agreement”).

EXHIBIT F
Consent and Agreement of Borrower and Guarantor
CONSENT AND AGREEMENT OF BORROWER AND GUARANTOR
The undersigned acknowledges that it is the borrower or guarantor (each, an “Obligor”) with respect to the loan (the “Loan”) from XXXXX FARGO BUSINESS CREDIT, a division of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, NA (“Existing Lender”) to OPTA SYSTEMS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which Loan is evidenced by, among other documents, the Revolving Note, dated July 21, 2003 in the stated principal amount of $20,000,000.00 (the “Note”).
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) of even date herewith between Existing Lender and OPTA CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (“Lender”). The following statements are made with the knowledge that Lender, as purchaser of the Note and the Loan, is relying on them in connection with its purchase of the Loan from Existing Lender and that Lender and Lender’s successors and assigns may rely on them for that purpose. The undersigned hereby certifies to Lender, that:
1. Obligor is a party to certain of the Loan Documents.
2. The Loan Documents are unmodified except as reflected in the Agreement and in full force and effect.
3. The outstanding principal balance of the Loan as of January 27, 2006 is $2,189,148.13.
4. No event has occurred and no condition exists that constitutes, or that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute, a default by Existing Lender in connection with the Loan. Obligors have no defenses, set-offs or offsets, of any kind, against the enforcement of the Loan or any amounts payable thereunder.
5. Obligor consents to Lender’s purchase of the Loan and agrees that Lender shall have all rights and remedies granted to Existing Lender under the Note and other Loan Documents.
6. The undersigned is duly authorized to execute this certificate on behalf of Obligor. The execution, delivery and performance of this certificate by Obligor have been duly authorized by all necessary company or trust action, as applicable.
7. No consent of any person or entity is necessary to Obligor’s execution, delivery and performance of this agreement, or if such consent is required, it has been obtained.
8. The making, execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which Obligor is a party have been duly authorized by Obligor. The Loan Documents constitute legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable against Obligor in accordance with their respective terms.
9. This agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but which together shall constitute but one and the same document. Signatures may be given by facsimile or other electronic transmission, and such signatures shall be fully binding on the party sending the same.
