sustaining costs, all-in costs, cost savings and other operating results, return on equity, productivity improvements, growth

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 those set out in the forward-looking statements as a result of, among other

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

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 AngloGold
