pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.&#160; In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.</font></p>

Statement registers 6,000,00

shares of common stock, no par value (the "Common Shares") of Agnico-Eagle Mines
Limited (the "Company") that may be issued under the Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited
Amended and Restated Employee Stock Option Plan (the "Stock Option Plan") and 2,500,000
Common Shares that may by issued under the Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited Amended
and Restated Incentive Share Purchase Plan (the "Incentive Share Purchase Plan,"
and collectively with the Stock Option Plan, the "Plans").
(2)
Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this
Registration Statement also covers additional Common Shares that may become
issuable under the Plans by reason of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization or other similar transaction effected without the Company's
receipt of any consideration which results in an increase in the number of
outstanding shares of the Company.
(3)
With respect to
2,500,000 Common Shares issuable under the Incentive Share Purchase Plan and 5,885,000
Common Shares issuable under the Stock Option Plan, the proposed maximum
aggregate offering price is estimated solely for purposes of calculating the
registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(c) under the Securities Act on
the basis of the average of the high and low reported price of the Common
Shares on the New York Stock Exchange on June 20, 2008.
(4)
With respect to 15,000
Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under the Stock
Option Plan, the proposed maximum aggregate offering price solely for the
purposes of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(h) under
the Securities Act is based on the exercise prices of such options.  The exercise price for these 15,000 Common
Shares is U.S.$65.97.
(5)
With respect to 65,000
Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under the Stock
Option Plan, the proposed maximum aggregate offering price solely for the
purposes of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(h) under
the Securities Act is based on the exercise prices of such options.  The exercise price for these 65,000 Common
Shares is Cdn$66.30, which, based on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's Noon
Buying Rate on May 13, 2008, the date of the grant of the options, for
Canadian Dollars of U.S.$1.00 = Cdn$0.9996, equaled U.S.$66.33.
(6)
With respect to
35,000 Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding options under the
Stock Option Plan, the proposed maximum aggregate offering price solely for the
purposes of calculating the registration fee pursuant to Rule 457(h) under
the Securities Act is based on the exercise prices of such options.  The exercise price for these 35,000 Common
Shares is Cdn$66.74, which, based on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's
Noon Buying Rate on June 26, 2008, the date of the grant of the options,
for Canadian Dollars of U.S.$1.00 = Cdn$1.0121, equaled U.S.$65.94.

the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration
Statement; provided, however, that paragraphs 1(i) and 1(ii) do not
apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment
by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the
Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration
Statement.
2.
That, for the purpose of determining any
liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
3.
To remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b)       The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purposes of determining
any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering hereof.
(c)       Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
