Vancouver, British Columbia / TheNewswire / January 21, 2015 - Axmin Inc. (TSX VENTURE: AXM) ("AXMIN" or the "Company") announced today that, further to its press release dated November 21, 2014, the Company has amended the terms of its previously announced non-brokered best efforts private placement offering of common shares (the "Offering"), due to a decision by the arm's-length investor who had committed to subscribe for C$1.5 million (the "investor") to downsize its subscription to C$500,000. Assuming completion of the Offering, the investor will hold approximately 15.51% of the outstanding common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") and 12.64% of the outstanding Common Shares on a fully-diluted basis. As a result, the investor will not become a "Control Person" (as defined by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV")) following the closing of the Offering (in contrast to the original proposed financing) and shareholder approval of the Offering is not required.
Pursuant to the terms of a revised subscription agreement with the investor, the Offering will be completed in two tranches. The Company intends to issue an aggregate of 20,000,000 Common Shares at a price of C$0.025 per share. Under the first tranche of the Offering, the Company will issue 8,000,000 Common Shares to the new investor for gross proceeds of C$200,000 and an additional approximately 600,000 Common Shares to existing shareholders who had expressed interest in subscribing under the original private placement and have committed to subscribe in the revised financing. The first tranche is expected to be closed within 10 days of the later of (a) the date on which the Company receives the conditional acceptance from the TSXV on the revised private placement and (b) the parties signing and delivering the revised subscription agreement. Under the second tranche of the Offering, the Company will issue 12,000,000 common shares for gross proceeds of C$300,000 within 45 days from the date of issuance of this news release.
AXMIN intends to use the proceeds of the Offering primarily to maintain and preserve the Company's existing operations, activities and assets, substantially as set out below.

The Company has made further efforts to reduce its budgeted operating costs. Although the Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering as described above, the actual allocation of net proceeds may vary from the uses set forth above, depending on future operations or unforeseen events or opportunities.
A finder's payment payable in common shares equal to 5% of the gross proceeds from the sale of common shares sold to the investor may be paid in connection with the Offering.
Pursuant to the TSXV, the waiver previously granted by the TSXV which permits the Company to offer the Common Shares at a price below the TSXV's $0.05 minimum pricing requirement remains effective. In addition, an extension of the closing date for the Offering has been obtained from the TSXV.
At this time, the Company would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the subscribers for their support. The Company is confident in the value of its major assets and is actively pursuing financing options and plans for the upcoming year, in order to further enhance its current working capital.
