Usually this effect is written out as:

> "If a creature dealt damage this way would die this turn, exile it instead."

In any case, the current version is just wrong - it shouldn't have "instead" paired with "when".

So either it should replace the death by exile ("if ... instead" variation), or - when the creature dies (ie. is put into a graveyard), the ability triggers and exiles it from the graveyard.

Whoops, was too focused on looking at Burn Away instead of Annihilating Fire.
