GERMAN 2.8M+ARTEMIS 1.75M FUNDING PCT Development
XCounter aims to develop a PCT detector which the Directors believe is key to the provision of low
radiation dose and high image quality scanning. The Company aims to develop a sustainable and simple but
robust detector, which delivers high sensitivity and energy resolution, fulfilling the requirements for many
X-ray imaging applications, as well as delivering a high frame rate that would allow for fast image
recognition.
Medical applications
As announced on 2 July 2009, the Company is working with Artemis, a spinoff of
the University of Erlangen's Institute of Medical Physics, under the leadership of Prof. Willi Kalender, to
collaborate on the research and development of the PCT platform in the Mammo CT area for low dose
3D X-ray CT-imaging for breast cancer detection. The Directors believe that the new device which is
intended to result from this collaboration may have the potential to offer more comprehensive and higher
quality breast scanning facilitating earlier detection of breast cancer, the most common form of cancer found
in women.
Artemis and its founder, Prof. Kalender, have substantial expertise and a proven track record in CT physics,
system and applications development. It intends to develop, validate, clinically test and commercialize a
low-dose, high-resolution breast CT scanner using the XCounter photon counting digital direct conversion
solid state detector technology.
Co-development of the breast CT scanner provides a cost effective way for XCounter to progress the
development of the detector technology as, under the current proposals, Artemis intends to provide €1.75m
over a period of two years during the R&D phase of the project. Artemis would fund XCounter's detector
development in return for exclusivity for the PCT technology in the Mammo CT application.
Artemis has applied for a €2.8m grant from the German government (Bundesministerium für Bildung und
Forschung) to fund half of the project. It is currently anticipated that the German government will announce
the results of the grant application on or around 26 January 2010.
If Artemis' application for the grant is successful, the Company anticipates negotiating and signing a co-
development agreement with Artemis in the first quarter of 2010 which will include provisions granting
Artemis exclusivity for the PCT technology for the Mammo CT application. Following the developmental
phase, Artemis proposes to licence the product to a major OEM and it is XCounter's current intention at that
time to enter into a supply agreement with Artemis, so as to exclusively manufacture and supply the detector
components to be integrated into the completed Mammo CT device.
The Directors believe that the total initial market for the complete Mammo
CT systems to be €150m per annum.
In connection with the Placing, Medical Imaging Research Holding GmbH (a company owned by Prof. Willi
Kalender) has conditionally agreed to subscribe for 1,818,181 Placing Shares at the Placing Price.
There is no guarantee that the German government will agree to fund the R&D phase of the project. If
funding is not forthcoming and XCounter and Artemis are unable to secure alternative sponsors for the
project, the co-development will not proceed and XCounter will, instead, focus on dental and industrial
applications. In this case, the Company will not fund the PCT platform development and will reduce R&D
on new photon counting detector products thereby reducing the Group's business development costs.
XCounter will also incur restructuring costs at the Danderyd facility of approximately €1.2m including the
removal of the clean room and the refit of the offices. In this case the Directors anticipate that the Company
will break even in 2011 rather than in the second quarter of 2012, however the long term growth potential of
the Company will be significantly reduced.
Industrial applications
AJAT has confirmed several new orders with industrial applications including small animal CT scanning,
inspection systems for food and oil pipe welds. The Directors believe that AJAT will continue to grow its
orders in this segment.
In particular, the Company announced earlier today that AJAT has signed a seven year exclusive agreement
to supply its X-ray detector technology to a Norwegian company specializing in industrial technology
development within the energy industry (the "Ajat Commercial Partner").

AJAT - Finland

SMEP profile: AJAT is a specialised NDT engineering company with 12 full-time employees that designs, develops and manufactures in house, X-ray digital imaging cameras. AJAT's technology is cutting edge and is based on CdTe or CdZnTe bump-bonded to an ASIC. AJAT founded on 2001, this young company already has strong national and international connections and is located at Espoo, Finland. In Fiscal 2003 ending 8-2003 AJAT had revenues of approx. 400kEuro selling its innovative cameras. The company has invested over 2million Euros over the past two years in ramping development and production facilities and developing its products. It appears that AJAT is today in a unique position world-wide to provide direct conversion X-ray cameras based on CdTe-CMOS technology. The revenues for Fiscal 2004 are expected to be in excess of 800k Euros.

The research at AJAT is mainly centred on quality control and monitoring often for bespoke applications. NDT is performed primarily by use of X-ray imaging and X-ray energy dispersive measurements. Service inspection is performed, based on samples submitted for structural integrity assessment according to the customer's specific demands. These services are directed towards NDT quality control checks, spot tests for structural integrity / quality assessment, evaluation of internal geometry and for selection of samples and sample volumes for destructive (e.g. mechanical) tests.

Role in project and reason for participation: WP-B Manager: (PSC): Dr. Konstantinos Spartiotis, who holds a PhD in Physics, is the CEO and chairman of the company and will be a key member of the PSC. AJAT will develop and implement the next generation of direct conversion Dynamic Imaging X-ray camera, including a scanning solution. AJAT are in a unique position to achieve this by virtue of their experience and expertise in this field. The reason for participation is that AJAT wish to maintain the lead position they have built for themselves at a cost level they cannot maintain internally. The dissemination of their technology, particularly in such a large industrial sector is seen as a huge opportunity. The primary commercial interest lies in the market opportunities for fast highly accurate digital inspection technology. The current situation is that systems have to be demonstrated before they are adopted, and R&D efforts and hence costs are too high to enable SMEs to take a role in this regard. Detector technology developed to this level will result in significant international sales
