Press Release Summary = Bellevue, WA, Mountain View, CA, (MARKETWIRE) - Nov.27 2006 - EXIM Internet Group Inc. (OTC: EXGN.PK), operator of B2B web properties and LinkedWords.com, a large-scale and rapidly growing contextual platform changed their strategic options announced earlier this year.


Press Release Body = The license agreement announced in May 2006 has changed over time and under the most recent deal terms EXIM was pursuing a 20% equity stake in LinkedWords.com plus an exclusive license to operate the site in return of 70% of its stock plus $5M equally payable over the next 5 years to the owners of LinkedWords.com.

Although EXIM and LinkedWords.com generally agreed upon the terms of the proposed license/participation deal, the ratification of this deal did finally not take place, because the majority of the LinkedWords.com shareholders have changed their strategy and decided to remain a fully private company.

The fact that LinkedWords.com's marketing, business and financial strategies should not be subject of the stringent reporting and publicizing requirements of a public company was the reason for the decision of the LinkedWords.com owners to stay private. These strategies concern - among others - the following:


a) The web 2.0's dynamically changing environment does require flexibility;
b) The rapid expansion models employed and widely adopted within the web 2.0 industry require LinkedWords.com to act quickly;
c) In regard to the innovativeness, uniqueness and highly proprietary nature of LinkedWords.com's concept, idea & business model LinkedWords.com owners prefer not to comply with the reporting requirements by a public entity;
d) Technologically unique architecture of the 38-million-page large web 2.0 contextual platform;
e) Rapid growth in the traffic demonstrated over the past 5 months since its launch in June '06 calls for rapid decisions on a daily basis;
f) Obvious potential of rapidly becoming a mainstream popular web site needs sensitively strategic movements, decisions and implementations, which only a private structure can offer;
g) The Web 2.0 industry's nature, trends, expansion models and beyond; and h) Only few companies from the Web 2.0 age are publicly traded in the first years of their existence.

Both companies, however, decided to further keep exploring options for a possible cross participation in the future, mutually beneficial to both parties.

"We in EXIM Internet Group, Inc. respect the decision of LinkedWords.com
shareholders, and look forward to potentially find a way for some form of
reciprocal participation," said EXIM's CEO. "The shareholders and the management of our company, which is a major and well-known b2b web site operator within the international trading and import / export industry, will now continue to concentrate on its core corporate strategy to retain the leading position in this growing world market of international trade."
