Anglo American Share Incentive Plan – SIP

The SIP is an Inland Revenue approved employee share plan under which employees are
able to buy ordinary shares in the Company using monthly deductions from salary, and are
allocated an equivalent number of free ordinary shares ("matching shares"). Both the
purchased shares and the matching shares are held in the SIP trust. The matching shares are
acquired by the SIP Trust and allocated to the relevant employees. During the short period of
time between acquisition and allocation, the executive directors of the Company are deemed
to be interested in those shares.

The Company was advised today that the following transactions took place in relation to the
SIP on 7 August 2012:

1. 8,974 shares were allocated to employee participants as matching shares.

2. The following executive directors / persons discharging managerial responsibility (“PDMR”)
of the Company each acquired the undernoted ordinary shares at a price of £19.74 and were
allocated an equal number of matching shares, free of charge:

    B R Beamish (PDMR)                  6 ordinary shares
    C B Carroll (director)              7 ordinary shares
