Former Olympus President and CEO Michael Woodford speaks to the media before he attends Olympus Corp's extraordinary shareholders' meeting in Tokyo April 20, 2012. Olympus , a camera maker and the world's biggest manufacturer of endoscopes used for internal medical examinations, sacked its British CEO after he queried staggeringly high advisory fees paid in past acquisitions. In the weeks that followed, regulators uncovered a $1.7 billion accounting fraud stretching back over more than a decade. REUTERS/Toru Hanai (JAPAN - Tags: BUSINESS TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY)
