Certain statements contained in this document, other than statements of historical fact, including, without limitation, those concerning the economic outlook for
the gold mining industry, expectations regarding gold prices, production, cash costs, cost savings and other operating results, return on equity, productivity
improvements, growth prospects and outlook of AngloGold Ashanti’s operations, individually or in the aggregate, including the achievement of project
milestones, commencement and completion of commercial operations of certain of AngloGold Ashanti’s exploration and production projects and the completion
of acquisitions and dispositions, AngloGold Ashanti’s liquidity and capital resources and capital expenditures and the outcome and consequence of any potential
or pending litigation or regulatory proceedings or environmental issues, are forward-looking statements regarding AngloGold Ashanti’s operations, economic
performance and financial condition. These forward-looking statements or forecasts involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may
cause AngloGold Ashanti’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the anticipated results, performance or achievements expressed
or implied in these forward-looking statements. Although AngloGold Ashanti believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements and
forecasts are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly, results could differ materially from

of business and operating initiatives, changes in the regulatory environment and other government actions, including environmental approvals, fluctuations in
gold prices and exchange rates, the outcome of pending or future litigation proceedings, and business and operational risk management. For a discussion of

Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on 26 July 2013. These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause AngloGold Ashanti’s actual
results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could also have material adverse
effects on future results. Consequently, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. AngloGold Ashanti undertakes no
obligation to update publicly or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the
occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by applicable law. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to
