has been placed in escrow by the subscriber Dickson Resources Limited

29,200,000 Units will close and the Escrow Amount will be unconditionally
released to the Company. If the conditions are not satisfied on or before the
Outside Date, the Escrow Amount will be returned to Dickson, the common share
purchase warrants will expire unexercised and the Agreement will be terminated.


Closing of the second tranche requires the requisite shareholder approval (the
"Shareholder Approval") of 50.1% of the votes cast at a Special Meeting of
Shareholders (the "Meeting") to be held before the Outside Date. An information
circular regarding the Offering will be filed with securities regulators and

applicable securities laws.

David de Jongh Weill, the Chairman and Director, have each purchased 333,333
Units for approximately $50,000 in the first tranche of the Offering and on the
same terms and conditions as the Offering.


As per terms of the Agreement, AXMIN has procured lock-up agreements from George
Roach, President, CEO and Director, David de Jongh Weill, Chairman and Director
and from AOG Holdings BV. Assuming AXMIN's shareholders approve the transaction
at the Meeting and all regulatory approvals are obtained, the final stage of the
transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2013.

on August 11, 2013. Post-completion of the first tranche of the Offering AXMIN
