NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO U.S. NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE U.S.

The Mint Corporation (TSX VENTURE:MIT) ("Mint" or the "Company") announces that
it has filed its unaudited interim Financial Statements and its Management
Discussion and Analysis for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. These documents
are available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com under Mint's SEDAR profile. 


Mint also announces the appointment of Vishy Karamadam to the board of directors
of Mint. Mr. Karamadam is a director and Executive Vice President of Gravitas
Financial Inc. ("Gravitas"). Shareholders of Mint recently approved a loan
agreement between Mint and Gravitas and the right granted to Gravitas to convert
the loan into common shares to become a new control person of Mint. So long as
any money is owed under the loan, Gravitas has the right to nominate a director
of Mint.


Mint also announces that it has completed the issuance of $406,000 of debentures
(the "Series B Debentures") and 520,888 of warrants (the "Warrants"), in
exchange for $514,941 of previously issued debentures of Mint (the "Old
Debentures"). The issuance of Series B Debentures and Warrants occurred on a
non-brokered private placement basis. 


For every $1,250 of Old Debentures exchanged, a holder of Old Debentures
received (i) $1,000 principal amount of Series B Debentures, plus (ii) 1,250
common share purchase Warrants plus one warrant for every $1.00. The number of
Series B Debentures issued to subscribers was rounded down to the nearest $1000
and a holder of Old Debentures received one Warrant for every $1.00 of rounding.
Old Debentures were valued at the amount of principal and interest owing under
those debentures on the date of closing. 


Details of the Series B Debentures are contained in the press release of the
Company issued on March 12, 2014.


Each Warrant is exercisable for one common share of the Company at any time
during the period ending March 7, 2017 at an exercise price of $0.25. The
520,888 Warrants referred to above are subject to a hold period expiring on
October 1, 2014.


On May 16, 2014, the Company announced the issuance of 15,000 subscription
receipts and the conversion of those and other subscription receipts into Series
A Debentures. The issuance of the subscription receipts was a related party
transaction under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 ("MI 61-101") because insiders
of the Company subscribed for the 15,000 subscription receipts. The Company is
exempt from the formal valuation requirement and shareholder approval
requirement of MI 61-101. A material change report in respect of the Offering
will be filed on SEDAR. A report could not be filed at least 21 days prior to
closing as material information concerning the offering, including insider
participation, was not then known by the Company.


GENERAL DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

Investors are encouraged to read the Management Discussion and Analysis
Documents filed on SEDAR for a description of additional risks associated with
investing in The Mint Corporation. The following statement is only intended to
inform investors on certain of the many risks associated with investing in The
Mint Corporation (the "Company"). The Company operates predominantly in the
Middle East and North Africa ("MENA"). It is accordingly exposed to significant
political, legal and regulatory risks associated with operating in these
emerging and volatile markets. The key management personnel and operations of
the Company are based in countries which do not have strong and reliable
judicial enforcement. This results directly in additional risk with respect to
the enforcement of legal and contractual rights, including, for example but
without limitation, the enforcement of the rights of creditors, the protection
of intellectual property rights, the enforcement of joint venture arrangements,
and binding key employees with non-compete agreements. Since inception, the
Company has not reached profitability. The Company relies heavily on high-cost,
debt financing to fund its business plan. This has exposed the Company to unique
financial risks associated with significantly higher than normal debt levels.
Investors in the company are strongly encouraged to be aware of the significant
risks of the company, to conduct additional due diligence and to seek the help
of a licensed investment advisor before considering to invest in securities of
the Company. Moreover, investors must be aware that the purchase of the
Company's securities involves a number of additional significant risks and
uncertainties, as disclosed in the Management Discussion and Analysis reports
filed on SEDAR by the Company. Investors considering purchasing securities of
the Company should be able to bear the economic risk of total loss of such
investment.

unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual

statements. In addition to other risks, the Company would be unable to complete
any additional closing of Series B Debentures and Warrants in exchange for Old
Debentures if the Company does not receive stock exchange approval or if the
Company receives no additional subscriptions. Forward-looking statements involve
significant risks and uncertainties, they should not be read as guarantees of
future performance or results, and they will not necessarily be accurate
indications of whether or not such results will be achieved. Actual results

risks. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this news release
are based upon what management of Mint believes are reasonable assumptions on
the date of this news release, Mint cannot assure investors that actual results
will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking
