Information As Of June 6, 2006

''The Actipatch is designed to meet the market demand for an effective, inexpensive, drug-free, therapeutic agent for the soft tissue injury market. In the US alone, there are an estimated 200+ million soft tissue injuries annually. The unique value proposition of ActiPatch™ is delivery of drug-free therapy that accelerates healing by 30 to 50% when compared with current standard methods of patient care."


Overview

BioElectronics Corporation designs, develops, manufactures and markets a variety of proprietary, drug-free, anti-inflammatory patches for a broad range of medical indications. The Company's patch products, which are marketed under the trade name ActiPatch TherapyR, deliver pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, a clinically-proven and widely-accepted anti-inflammatory and pain relief therapy that, prior to the introduction of the Company's products, had only been offered through large office- or hospital-based equipment. The Company believes pulsed electromagnetic energy therapy will increasingly be used as an alternative or adjunct to many wound care procedures or therapies because it may relieve pain and swelling, shorten or halt the inflammatory phase, accelerate tissue healing, minimize the appearance of scars and increase the strength of regenerated tissue.

 


Investment Highlights

  • Received FDA market clearance for the treatment of edema (swelling) following blepharoplasty (eye surgery);
     
  • Received ISO Certification and CE Mark (European Common Market) Certification;

Profile

BioElectronics Corporation is the maker of Actipatch, a microchip embedded into a disposable soft foam patch that delivers pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, a clinically proven and widely accepted anti-inflammatory and pain relief therapy previously only available from large facility-based machines. The Actipatch is designed to meet the market demand for an effective, inexpensive, drug-free, therapeutic agent for the soft tissue injury market. In the US alone, there are an estimated 200+ million soft tissue injuries annually. The unique value proposition of ActiPatch™ is delivery of drug-free therapy that accelerates healing by 30 to 50% when compared with current standard methods of patient care.

ActiPatch ™ causes a reduction in the swelling (edema) and inflammation that occurs after tissue injury – a true and beneficial acceleration in the healing process. When soft tissue is damaged the cells separate to prevent the transmission of infection. The cells leak fluid and cellular components break down while the cellular debris causes inflammation, swelling and pain. ActiPatch ™ stabilizes the leaking cell membrane by, in effect, recharging the membrane. The pulsed energy delivered by ActiPatch ™ drives out the edematous fluid along with byproducts of the damaged tissue. The ActiPatch ™ creates an environment in which cell-to-cell communication is re-established in the area of the injured tissue. Inflammation is decreased and tissue repair begins. As a result of the decreased inflammation, a decrease in the pain associated with the soft tissue injury often occurs.

Market opportunities for the products are: Sprains/Sports Injuries, Wound Care, Post-Surgical, Fracture Management and Repetitive Stress Injuries.

Regulatory Milestones Achieved:
 

  • FDA market clearance for the treatment of edema
     
  • ISO and CE Certifications (European & Common Union)
     
  • Health Canada Market clearance for the relief of musculoskeletal pain
     

Strategic Marketing Relationships

BioElectronics signed an exclusive three-year supply and distribution agreement with Byron Medical, Inc. a subsidiary of Mentor Corporation (NYSE:MNT), a large supplier of medical products worldwide, to cover marketing of Actipatch ™ Therapy products to plastic surgeons worldwide.

The new wearable and disposable Actipatch ™ will be available as an insert into the PedAlign ™ product as a unique offering to providers that order PedAlign ™ custom orthotic products.
 

In November 2005, BioElectronics announced a partnership with PROFOOT, Inc. for distribution of the Actipatch ™ product in Canada. The product will be available at prominent retail stores throughout Canada. PROFOOT Inc. is America’s second largest brand of consumer foot care products and the brand is available at tens of thousands of mass-retail outlets in Canada, the US and 20 other countries.

Product Information

ActiPatch™

The ActiPatch™ is a medical devices which deliver pulsed electromagnetic frequency (PEMF) therapies to accelerate healing of soft tissue injuries. A reduction of pain and swelling allows patients to return to normal activities much sooner. Patented technology based on clinically proven, widely accepted PEMF therapy.

Actually the benefits of pulsed electromagnetic field therapy have been clinically accepted for many years. What is new is that the company's has made it smaller, virtually weightless and inexpensive. ActiPatch is "wearable" technology that delivers freedom from discomfort after surgery, allowing the user to quickly return to your active life.

A surgeon possesses extraordinary skills and advanced techniques, but any surgical procedure will result in temporary damage to tissue cells. The users body naturally responds with a period of bruising, swelling and pain. Unlike conventional remedies which simply mask the discomfort of inflammation by means of pain suppressing medications, ActiPatch relieves symptoms naturally by treating the cellular source of edema and helping the body to remove inflammatory fluids. The effectiveness of ActiPatch therapy has been consistently proven in clinical trials to result in less swelling, less bruising and a shorter, less painful recovery period.

The ActiPatch device is flexible, light weight and easy to apply and use. Once activated, ActiPatch begins pulsing a continuous low level current to energize damaged cells in the surgical region, helping remove the effects of trauma so you can feel better and look better faster than you would have thought possible.

  • Low cost treatment with no side effects
     
  • Applicable to a wide range of surgeries
     
  • Reduces long term recovery time
     
  • Up to 30 days continuous operation
