PMX Gold Confirms International Patent Filing; Updates Investors Regarding Return of 8,000,000 shares to Treasury, Gold ATM Prototype Status & PMX Gold Exchange Launch

BOCA RATON, Fla., Feb. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- PMX Gold, LLC ("PMX Gold"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PMX Communities, Inc. (OTCBB: PMXO) announced that intellectual-property law firm RatnerPrestia has filed International Patent Application Number PCT/US2012/020486 ("Unattended Precious Metal Distribution System, Methods and Apparatus") as part of PMXO's agreement with Gold Deposit Technologies, Inc. to protect certain technology and business methodology under joint development. In a related announcement, PMXO confirmed the return of 8,000,000 shares of stock to Treasury as part of management restructuring.

International Patent Filing, Technology Update
"The PCT filing preserves our rights to file this patent in over 140 member countries, including the United States, Russia, China, Brazil, India, the European Union States and many other markets which we may enter. By submitting the International Patent filing under the Patent Cooperation Treaty on January 6, 2012 the company has met the deadline that allowed for priority consideration back through and including both the first application dated January 6, 2011 and the second application dated September 26, 2011. Moving forward, we have an additional 18 months to file patents country by country as our international business plan develops," said Michael C. Hiler, Chairman of PMXO.

"At this time last year we were in the midst of test marketing our imported gold bullion vending machine. Since then we have worked with Omnitech Automation (www.oai-automation.com), Gold Deposit Technologies, Inc., our Lead ATM Industry Consultant and others to complete the design of the gold dispenser/deposit technology and schematics for overall network interaction. Additionally, we have zeroed in on a suitable ATM software designer and payment processing partner to complete the Gold ATM Terminal programming and integrate our bullion based transactions into the international banking system," continued Hiler.

Management Restructure
"In late Summer 2011 we had asked 2 founding shareholders to step into management to solidify our corporate structure. However, at the end of 2011 with the technology plan of the company in place and our International Patent submission pending it was mutually determined that we needed to restructure management and repackage the company for Wall Street as we began to seek necessary financing to properly implement our business plan. Departing management has returned all 8,000,000 shares of stock previously issued them in connection with their employment agreements and we thank them for their service and contributions to the company. As founding shareholders we hope to draw upon their assistance and technical advice as we move forward."

"We are pleased to confirm that Richard Seay, a South Florida based attorney with prior public company officer experience including assisting with capital raising transactions and investment banking oversight, intellectual property prosecution, regulatory approval facilitation and compliance experience has accepted the position of Vice President and a Director with the company."

Gold ATM Project Update, PMX Gold Exchange Launch
"Over the next 60 days we hope to present to investors a new PMX Gold President from within the International ATM Industry, complete a modification of our previous agreement with GDT that allows for both full acquisition of the intellectual property described above and ongoing consulting services on very favorable terms, launch the PMX Gold Exchange and confirm a final ATM Prototype unveiling date and Phase I launch timetable. This is a very complex project with numerous moving pieces and we thank investors for their patience."
