Make sure that your exim data really resides in /usr/var2/exim.
Afterwards, remove /var/spool/exim.
The ln command won't remove any existing files and directories, but it
doesn't complain in this case. And then you have to take care where
you specify source and destination: The source is an existing file or
directory, while the destination is the directory that should contain
the link.
Source is first, destination follows. In your case, the command should =
be:

ln -s /usr/var2/exim /var/spool/exim
