AXMIN Inc. (TSX VENTURE:AXM) ("AXMIN" or the "Company") further to the Company's
July 20, 2011 press release, AXMIN is pleased to announce that it has entered
into an amendment to the original Fee Letter in connection with the Mandate
Letter entered into on July 19, 2011 with The Standard Bank of South Africa
Limited ("SBSA"), pursuant to which SBSA is appointed as the Mandated Lead
Arranger ("MLA") to arrange and underwrite a US$100 million Export Credit
Insurance Corporation of South Africa Limited ("ECIC") backed term loan facility
for the purposes of partially funding the development of the Passendro Gold
project in the Central African Republic (the "Project"). 


Under the terms of the original Fee Letter, SBSA was entitled to 25 million
common share purchase warrants (the "Warrants"). The 25 million Warrants were
not issued and lapsed as a result of certain conditions not having been met
under the terms of the original Fee Letter. Pursuant to the amendment to the
original Fee Letter, AXMIN has agreed to issue 1 million Warrants to SBSA, with
each such Warrant exercisable into a common share of AXMIN at an exercise price
of $0.63 per common share for a period of three years from the date of vesting. 


The Warrants will vest and become exercisable on the date that (a) SBSA receives
credit approval for the Project, and (b) ECIC board approval is received for the
Project. The Warrants will be subject to a hold period of 4 months and one day
from the date of issue and any shares issuable during such time period on the
due exercise of the Warrants will be subject to a hold period of 4 months and
one day from the date of issue of the Warrants.
