Salt Lake City, UT February 7, 2002- AXIA Group, Inc.(OTCBB: AXIA) today announced the execution of an agreement between Wasatch Capital Corporation, an Axia subsidiary, and Orasis T.V. Film Productions S.A., an Athens based production company engaged by the Greek Ministry of Culture to promote the 2004 Summer Olympic Games to be held in Athens, Greece.

The space is now being refurbished and decorated to provide the world with a preview of what might be expected in Athens in 2004.

The short term agreement with Orasis comes on the heals of a three year lease for separate space in the Wallace-Bennett building to Utah Artists Hands, Inc., an art gallery devoted to southwestern arts produced primarily by artists living in Utah. Utah Artists Hands expects to profit from its downtown location and the anticipated crowds associated with the Salt Lake Winter Olympics.

The agreements to fill the remaining 6,000 square feet of ground space of the Wallace-Bennett building has enabled Wasatch to make improvements valued at approximately $250,000 in renovating and refurbishing the ground floor of the structure. The Wallace-Bennett building is a 36,797 square foot, turn of the century, multi-story office building located in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah, within half a block of the convention center. Wasatch intends to renovate the remaining above ground floors of the structure for some mixture of office space and residential condominiums. Management is seeking funds to complete a renovation of the building through bank financing.

Richard Surber, Axias president and CEO, commented that the renovation and revitalization of the Wallace-Bennet building is a good example of Axias commitment to purchasing undervalued real estate for limited cash consideration and turning that investment into shareholder value."
