Ladies and Gentleman,

Thank you for attending the 2012 Annual General Meeting of Audio Pixels.

I would like to start by acknowledging the management team and staff, and my fellow directors who have worked tirelessly in the pursuit of our goals, to commercialise our industry game changing digital speaker technology, and to make our company, Audio Pixels, a company of international standing.

This past year we continued our focus on the development and commercialisation of our digital speaker technologies into a high demand competitive product. The overall objective remains the same, which is the delivery to the market of our digital speaker technology innovation while securing solid margins for our company.

We have made significant progress toward the concurrent completion of product development, in combination with the development of mass production capabilities. In September 2011, we successfully completed what was considered to be the most critical of the four top-level development milestones. This phase involved a complete transition to more cost effective fabrication methods combined with a very significant alteration and optimisation of the electromechanical structure. All that without compromising sound levels or sound quality. The results of this phase have exceeded expectations; not only enabling advancement to subsequent phases but in fact, doing so at an accelerated pace. The results of this phase were validated using proprietary highly specialised measurement equipment developed in-house. These results have proved the underlying theory, that the pressure generated from the far smaller structures is equivalent, if not greater to, the pressure generated in the earlier larger structures. As a result the company was able to proceed with the subsequent two phases of development simultaneously (Phase 2 - geometrical optimisation for drive electronics, and Phase 3 - essentially a pre-production product). This should allow the company to enter the final phase of development, which is a fully integrated mass produced product earlier than originally planned.

To support the expedited commercialisation efforts, the company successfully attracted and engaged three of the world's leading micro electro mechanical systems ("MEMS") fabricators ("fabs"). Since the beginning of 2012, all the fabs have been working in close co-operation with the company to rapidly complete the next phases of development. The shorter-term objective is the fabrication of demonstrable playing speaker chips using mass production methods. If all goes as planned, the pre-engineering samples of playing chips will become available for market exposure in the last quarter of this year.

Yole Development, the leading research firm tracking the MEMS industry, recently forecasted that the MEMS industry would roughly double in size in less than five years (growing from $10B achieved in 2011 to $20B by 2016). Other industry experts have further predicated that within the relative near future the MEMS industry will exceed the $300B semiconductor industry. All experts point to the emergence of newly developed MEMS components and applications (including digital speakers) as the leading driver behind this phenomenal growth. This magnitude of opportunity permits, if not compels, MEMS fabrication companies, in particular world leading fabricators such as those currently engaged with AP, to be highly selective when choosing where to devote their resources. As global market leaders in MEMS fabrication, all three fabrication partners are highly sought after for cooperation by MEMS application companies. Therein lies the significance of having three of the world's leading fabricators pursue collaboration with Audio Pixels for the commercialisation of our digital speaker technologies. Standing perhaps as an even greater testament is that in the case of Audio Pixels, the fabs have decided to break from their normal practice and absorb the majority of the significant costs involved with developing mass fabrication methods. We believe that this unique situation offers a glimpse of the industry's perception as to the value and potential of our disruptive digital speaker technology.

I am sure, as a shareholder, you are also very interested in our intellectual property. This year, the company reached a very significant milestone having secured patent grants for the first two patent requests it submitted in 2006. On December 27, 2011, the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) issued patent number 8085964 covering the fundamental speaker structure and its operation principles. This was followed by the USPTO's issuance to Audio Pixels of patent number 8126163 covering methods of controlling volume and tones in digital speakers. During the past year the company submitted an additional four patent requests, expanding its already formidable IP portfolio to 17 application categories.

The company recently engaged Merriman Capital to serve as the Principal American Liaison (PAL) for Audio Pixels Holdings Limited trading on the OTCQX (ADPXY). Our recent engagement with Merriman has afforded management an early opportunity to begin its connection with the global financial community. It is increasingly clear that we are rapidly gaining the recognition we deserve as the global leader of digital audio speaker technologies. In addition, our confidential discussions with most of the leading consumer electronic and computing device original equipment manufacturers ("OEM's"), has helped our value and brand gain significant worldwide market attention, acceptance and recognition.

Looking back on the past year, our achievements have paved the way for what is surely to be a very exciting year ahead. In the coming year, we anticipate making the formal introduction of our digital speaker technology into the marketplace with playing speaker chips.

I want to assure you that the relative lack of information coming out of the company is simply the natural course of a company making phenomenal progress in both the technological and business areas, whilst being prudent about not adversely affecting the company's position with unnecessary "noise". We do however anticipate that in this coming year a number of very exciting activities will reach optimal maturity, to share with shareholders and the broader market.

Last but not least, I want to thank all shareholders for their continued support.

<![CDATA[ Westhouse Medical (FRA:5WM) Technology Holds the Key to Modernising Breast Cancer Screening; Jack Kaye CEO ]]> en72545 Y http://www.abnnewswire.net/press/en/72545/ Sun, 6 May 2012 04:00:45 GMT Breast cancer has become a major healthcare issue in the United Kingdom over the past two decades. Since the 1980s, breast cancer has received increasing attention throughout the world, due to the startling rise of the disease. The annual Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, which sees millions of pounds raised for research and charity, is testament to this.

Statistics gathered over the past two decades suggest that breast cancer is caused by environmental factors. North European women have a relatively high probability of developing the disease, along with North Americans and Australians, compared to those from the Mediterranean or the Far East. For example, a Japanese woman born and raised in her homeland will have a very low chance of developing the disease.

However, if she was to live in the UK for five years or more, she will have the same probability of developing the disease as a local. Whilst a scientific explanation remains absent, the reality is that breast cancer poses a greater threat to women in the UK than in other areas of the world.

This year in particular has seen breast cancer fill the news headlines - new research, criticism of the screening process and incidents such as the PIP breast implant scandal. However, arguably the most important news came in October 2011 with the announcement of an independent review into the NHS mammogram breast screening programme. The review, led by Professor Sir Mike Richards, national cancer director at the Department of Health, aims to update the current programme with more developed medical devices.

Nevertheless, mammogram screening saves lives because it allows breast cancers to be diagnosed and, if treated early, lowers mortality rates. That is an established fact, proven by decades of data from the US, Europe and here in the UK. Statistics show that in 1982, the year that the NHS started its breast screening program, there were over 18,000 related fatalities - an increasing trend from the 1970s. Since then, mortality from breast cancer has declined steadily to about 12,500 a year and stabilised at that level. The UK's mortality rate remains above many European neighbours such as Germany and Sweden, suggesting improvement is achievable.

However, at present there are a number of broad issues with the current UK screening programme that need to be addressed:

Age footprint

A woman's risk of developing breast cancer dramatically increases from the age of 42. The current UK screening programme only targets women from the age of 50, although this will soon be reduced to 47 - a clear admission of the fact that screeing at 50 or over is often far too late to prevent breast cancer becoming fatal. Unfortunately, 47 will be too late for many women as well as breast cancer can effect far younger women. Consequently, screening should be made available for all women over the age of 18 as breast cancer is known to develop this early.

Incidence

The frequency of screening is under question. The medical evidence is clear - survival rates for some breast cancers are much better with higher frequency screening. Official advice in the US is for mammograms to be performed at least once every 2 years, while some US organisations advocate annual screening.

Of course it is easy for a government to advise more frequent screening when the Government does not pay for it. The US medical industry is still mainly funded by private insurance, although Medicaid (tax funded medical insurance) is expanding under Obama's reforms.

But even those organisations associated with Medicaid recommend bi-annual screening. Screening in the UK remains once every three years. Reducing this period would lower mortality rates for breast cancers.

Precision

Recent research in the UK has questioned the efficacy of mammograms as a screening tool. That it works is beyond doubt, however, mammograms are assumed to be specific for breast cancers by both patients and the clinical community.

In reality they miss many cancers, often because the cancers are too small or even precancerous, showing 'shadowing' that may not be indicative of a harmful pathology. Contrary to belief, some cancers are better off left in place as they are not aggressive, usually as they are encased in the ductile tissue of the breast. Only one out of every ten 'positive' mammograms actually turns out to be a cancer that should be treated - a 'false positive'. The problem with false positives is that far too often treatment is given when no such action is necessary, at increased cost to the NHS, and risk to the patient's future health.

Harmful potential

The negative knock-on effects of a mammogram scan are substantial. The invasive, physical nature of the process can cause harm, and increase the chance of healthy tissue becoming damaged or even cancerous in the future. Yet with no precursor to the current scanning system, all women - healthy or not - are put through the rigours of the mammogram.

New technology

A primary scanning alternative would allow women to gain a better understanding of the health of their breasts, without the need for a mammogram. Westhouse Medical is developing BreastCheck - a thermoscanner that detects a wide range of pathologies by analysing and comparing temperature levels in both breasts.

Temperature irregularities can indicate cancer as tumours prompt a build up of capillaries, through which increased blood flow creates heat. Women can use devices like BreastCheck in the comfort of their own home, taking any positive results to their GP who could then advise on further investigation or treatment.

Cost-efficiency

A primary screening procedure such as BreastCheck could save the NHS millions through the avoidance of unnecessary mammograms. At present, there are 2.3 million scans carried out each year, costing the NHS GBP120 million. This figure is predicted to rise during 2013-2014 costing the NHS an additional GBP40 million to accommodate the UK's aging population. According to the Office for National Statistics, the number of people over the age of 85 is expected to more than double from 1.4 million to 3.5 million within 25 years. An older female population will require more mammograms.

This widening footprint indicates that the number of mammograms per year will increase close to three million by 2014. If those 3 million mammograms all cost GBP53.33, ignoring the likely effects of inflation, the cost to the taxpayer will be GBP160m overall.

BreastCheck is a quarter of a mammogram's price. If used as a primary screening device BreastCheck could screen three million women a year at a cost of about GBP37.5 million. If 20 per cent produced positive results, they could be given a mammogram at an additional cost of GBP32 million. This conservative estimate places the total cost for the NHS at GBP70 million, a GBP90 million saving on the estimated GBP160 million forecasted for 2014.

Modernisation

If the NHS as a whole is to restructure, it must modernise its health programmes to continue providing the best possible health service for the public. The NHS's mammogram system has done an incredible job, rising to the challenges posed by a growing disease and saving countless lives. However, with new medical technology, the UK's breast screening programme can be modernised to answer the new problems presented by a recession and changing demographics.

A multi-tiered breast screening programme, beginning with a primary scan, will allow more women to be screened more regularly, more conveniently and in more comfort, with little or no additional health risks. The mammogram would then become a procedure recommended by doctors when abnormalities have already been detected to the benefit of all.

By doing this the NHS will create a flexible, wider and more reliable system where more cancers are detected at a lower cost for the taxpayer.
