McEwen subscribed for 15,414,740 units at C$0.35 each.

The units include one share and one half-share warrant. The whole warrants are exercisable at C$0.55 each and expire the earlier of the 15th trading day after Minera Andes receives notice that its stock has traded above C$1.00 per share for more than 20 consecutive trading days or Dec. 20, 2007.

Upon completion, McEwen will hold a 14.2% interest in Minera Andes.
