Amendment of the ArcelorMittal Supply Agreement Kumba Iron Ore Limited A member of the Anglo American plc group (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number 2005/015852/06) JSE Share code: KIO ISIN: ZAE000085346 ("Kumba" or the “Company”) Amendment of the ArcelorMittal Supply Agreement Shareholders are advised that Kumba Iron Ore Limited (“Kumba”) and ArcelorMittal SA Limited (“ArcelorMittal”) have agreed to amend the pricing mechanism of the long term supply agreement (for Kumba to supply ArcelorMittal with up to 6, 25Mtpa of iron ore) that they entered into on 5 November 2013. Kumba and ArcelorMittal have agreed to amend the pricing mechanism terms of their current agreement from a cost-based price to a price based on an export parity price (“EPP”). The EPP will be calculated on the basis of an international index (the “index price”) and, at certain index price levels, ArcelorMittal will receive a discounted price, as follows: if the index price is between USD60/t and USD70/t, ArcelorMittal will receive a 5% discount to the EPP; between USD70/t and USD80/t, a 6.25% discount would apply and at an index price above USD80/t, a 7.5% discount would apply. If the index price is below USD60, ArcelorMittal will pay the EPP. These terms remain subject to a final definitive agreement being signed between Kumba and ArcelorMittal. “The current market environment presents significant challenges for the mining and steel industries. This pricing amendment is commercially acceptable and sustainable for both parties. It will iron out the current distortions, whereby domestic prices can exceed those for export, thereby best serving the interests of the industry and country as a whole. Kumba remains committed to supporting a viable and stable domestic steel making industry in South Africa.” said Norman Mbazima, CEO of Kumba Iron Ore. Independent of the above announcement, shareholders are reminded of the cautionary announcement released by Kumba on 3 November 2015, advising shareholders to exercise caution when trading in the Company’s securities pending a further announcement (“the Cautionary Announcement”). The Cautionary Announcement pertains to the Company’s engagement with the Department of Mineral Resources regarding the proposed conditions attaching to the consent to the amendment of the Sishen mining right to include the residual 21.4% undivided share of the mining right for the Sishen mine.
